SENATOR GORMAN
dies SUDDENLY

Arthur Pue German, United States
senator from Maryland, died suddenly
at his home in Washington, D. c.. last
Monday While Senator German had
been ill for months, he had shown some
improvement lately.
Heart trouble was the immediate
cause Of death. Up to the moment of
death, Senator German was conscious.
Senator German leaves widow and

He long had been notable figure in
the national congress. He first took
his seat in 1881, and served continuous
ly for 10 years land nearly all of that
time he was the leader of his party in
the senate. Winning early the reputa-
ton for sagacity and the keenest judge
ment in congressional affairs, he at.
tanned prominence not only as leader
in the senate, but in the country at
large, land by many men was considered
the most available man in his party
for the presidency.
Political and naval circles in Wash.
ington think that one of the strongest
candidates for the vacancy in the sem
ate created by the death of Senator
German will be Rear Admiral Wlnfield
S. Schley, hero of Santiago. Rear Ad-
miral Schley, is a stanch democrat, a
native of Maryland, and was spoken of
as candidate for the presidency after
the Spanish. American war.

Chicago Packing.
HOUSES ARE DIRTY

Horrify ing revelations almost teyond
belief are made in the special report on
the Chicago packing house conditions
by Commissioners of Labor Neill and
Reynolds of New York. 1t was SUBJ
mitted to congress by the president. In
a message accompanying the report,
President Roosevelt describes conitions
as revolving and urges immediate dras.
tic legislation according to the Beve.
ridge amendment.
The report is not nice reading, as the
statements are sickening and show
packers in general have displayed a
disregard not only to common rules of
sanitation but even to decency. The
report says the stockyards pavements
are mostly of brick filled with manure
and refuse not properly cleaned; Shiny
and malodorous when wet and dusty
when dry. Stock which died en- route
10 thrown on the platform.
Interior buildings are mostly of
wood, and the floors usually of wood,
are soaked and Shiny, and the rooms
are poorly lighted, lily ventilated and
many without windows. A systematic
ventilation was not found anywhere.
But one porcelain receptical was found
for meats. The sanitary convenoiences
for employees shows the employers are
mediterranean to cleanliness.
Retiring rooms, which adjoin the
working rooms, are usually cut off from
the latter by low partitions; many are
without side air opening. Conditions
that affect most directly the cleanli.
ness Of food products are the frequent
absence of labatory provisions in the
privies. Washing sinks are either I'M
furnished at all or small and dirty;
neither towels, soap or toilet paper be.
ing provided. Men and women return
directly from these places to plunge
their unwashed hands into the meat
products and sausages.
"We saw meat shoveled from the
filthy floors, piled on tables and rarely
washed, pushed in rotten box carts al
ways gathering dirt, splinters, floor
filth or approximations of tuberculosis
from diseased workers.

People to Decide on Statehood.

The action of the majority Of the

the only logical one that could be

it open to the people of those terrific
ries to accept or reject that proposi-
ton. OF the result there can scarcely
be any doubt. Arizona has so strongly
declared herself in opposition to being
tied up with New Mexico that it is al
most foregone conclusion that state
hood on such terms will be rejected
provided each territory's vote is
counted separately.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
CHIEF SUSPECT OF BOMB OUT.
RAGE IN MADRID.
Another Dramatic Chapter to Events
Surrounding Royal Weddinp-As-
sassin Kills a Guard, and, Seeing
Escape impossible, Turned Gun on
Self-ldentification 10 Positive.

Madrid, June 1.-THE capture and
suicide Saturday night at Torrejon de
Ardos of Manuel Morales, the chief
suspect of the bomb outrage against
King Alfonso and Queen Victoria, adds
another dramatic chapter to the events
surrounding the royal wedding.
Morales was recognized in the little
town Of Torrejon de Ardos, midway be-
tween Madrid and Alcata. A guard
sought to detain him, but Morales,
drawing revolver, shot the guard
dead. Then he turned to fee, but a
number of the inhabitants of the town
were upon him, and, turning the re-
volver upon himself, he sent shot in
the region of his heart, expiring few
minutes later. Senior Cuesta, proprietor
Of the hotel from the balcony of which
Morales threw the bomb has viewed
the body and completely identified it
as that Of his recent guest.
It was o'clock Saturday evening
when Morales, disguised in the garb of
a working man, entered the station at
Torrejon de Ardos. He asked child,
who was in charge of the Office, the
time the next train would depart for
Barcelona. He then sought food in a
nearby shop. His Catalonian accent
first attracted attention to him. 1t was
then noticed that, while his working
mans suit was entirely new and cor
responded in texture to that usually
worn by person of his station in
life, his face and manners showed him
to be a man Of some distinction.
A private Waterman from a neigh.
boring estate CHANGED to be present,
and he noticed the facial resemblance
of Morales to the descriptions given
out of the man seen on the balcony
from which the bomb was thrown, par.
ticularly the long. thin and deeply
serious face and the closely cropped
mustache. He then observed that a
finger on the mans left hand, which
the stranger was trying to conceal,
was badly hurt, and that there was
also small fresh scar on his forehead
The stranger started out on road
leading into the country, but the
Waterman intercepted him and de-
manded to know his identity. Morales
declined to give this, whereupon the
guard arrested him. Instantly Morales
drew revolver from his pocket and
fired, the guard falling dead. Morales
started up the road, but small group
Of villagers barred his passage. Then,
turning around, he deliberately pointed
the weapon to his heart, fired and
pitched forwaN1 in the roadway.
An examination Of the pockets of the
dead man showed that they contained
$50 in money and small supply Of
bread and cheese, but there was
nothing in them that would give clev
as to his identity.
This fact created a doubt that the
man was Morales, but when the gov
ernor of Madrid arrived with Cuesta.
Identification was immediate and posi-
tive. The body was then brought to
Madrid. At first there was desire to
bury 1t at Torrejon de Ardos, but when
this was suggested the villagers in
dignantly refused to permit the body
to repose in their town.

CORONER'S EXHIBIT
DIR. J, RAMSEY NEVITT'S REPORT
OF YEARS WORK.

DR.. J. Ramsey hewitt, the District cOrO-
ner, in his annual report submitted to the
Commissioners today, stated that 995 deaths
were brought to the attention of his Of
flee during the fiscal year ended June 10
last, and that 500 bodies were received at
the morgue, 81 autopsies were made and
81 inQuests held.
The coroner stated that there was a total
of 491 natural deaths investigated, besides
243 violent deaths, 10 accidental poison
ings 63 suicides, % homicides and 1 legal
hanging.
According to the report, revolvers played
q most important role in last years sui
cides. there having been 16 deaths due to
"gunshot wounds" AS a means of self
destruction Illuminating gas figured IL
times and carbolic acid in 10 cases. Five
persons ended their lives by drowning, Z
by cutting their threats. by hanging, 2
by jumping and Sy opium.
DR.. hewitt explained that there was
a considerable increase in the num-
Der of suicides during the last year
compared with the last half dozen
years. This increase Is due" he
said "chiefly to the increase in our popu-
lation. There is a very general impress
sion among the laity that there are GER
tain seasons in which suicides are par
ticularly prevalent, but close review OF
such cases during the past six years does
not bear out such theory.
Although my report shows an increase
also in the number of violent deaths, which
included falls. wounds and other accidents,
consider this increase of mortality to be
comparatively small, when we consider the
great number Of large buildings constantly
undergoing construction and repair"
The coroner concluded his report by re-
questing that an appropriation be made
hiring St0nOgranher
laborer to aid in the morgue work. The
former is greatly needed, IS the only rec
ords Of the coroner's Office at present are
now taken In long hand, and likely to be
inaccurate. The laborer is particularly
needed because of the amount Of work the
present morgue force is compelled to do.
He pointed out that the total expense for
the coroner's department last year, includ-
ing the coroner's salary, was only
S6257.66, and 1896 Of this sum was for the
payment of fees to witnesses at inquests,
and the salaries Of the two additional men
asked for by him, he said, should be con-
sidered very reasonable request.
