Mr.. Stuart, having dinued at the
house of a friend, was returning to
his country place at Mauciadiani, five

hurried out with servants and found
Mr. Stuart lying on the ground bleed,
ing from the wounds. He was con

native population. He was so gener-
ally respected that he was on several
occasions called on to act as inter

business relations throughout the en-
tire Caucasus. He spoke several ma
tive dialects and was an authority on
land. The police have no trace OF
the murderers.

MAY CLOSE POWDER PLANT.
Citizens Of Pleasant Prairie to Make
a otest

kenosha, Wis, May 23.--As re-
suit of the explosions last Saturday
morning the powder trust may be
forced to close the big plant of the
Lafiin-Rand company at Pleasant
Prairie. Already the people living
in the village OF Pleasant Prairie and
IN the surrounding territory have
called a mass meeting at which some
steps will be taken TO prevent the re.
building of the plant on the site.
Farmers claim that they have lost
large amounts from the explosion
and that they cannot hope to recover
from the company. The big plant was
placed at Pleasant Prairie nearly ten
years ago and the company has spent
nearly $250,000 There is some doubt
as to the rights Of the people in the
case, but attorneys have been consult
ed and it is probable that a suit will
be brought to have the plant declared
a nuisance to life and property. Els
Inmates given out on Sunday are to
the effect that the loss from the ex-
plosion will not exceed $4,000.

N the death Of three negro boys who
we're supposedly killed by the Katy
messenger early Yesterday morning
four mile, north of Wclch,
There are several suspicious mel
dent, connected with the death oi'the
bows. In the first place IT Is rather
surprising that they should all have
zone to sleep on the track 50 soon
after leaving Wclch. And the engl-
ueer say, they were all lying IN a
bunch.
Another peculiar feature Is that
there VA, no blood whatever on the
track when the bodies were cut to
pieces. Brains and pieces Of bone
and flesh were scattered about Tor
some distance. but there was no blood
anywhere. Some traiumen say that
men killed suddenly and cut to pieces
tn not bleed much. but it Is rather dit-
6cult 10 understand why this should
be So.
Some of the trainmen and pa,sen-
gers say that the bodies when taken
from under the train were not
warm. bat almost cold, and that there
va, some stifuc,. noticeable. as #
the, had cen dead for some time. 1t
wa, thi. feature that caused the Katy
emplovc, to ask Marshal Darrough
tn make an investigation.
