CAPT. P. E. BOYD
CRITICALLY ILL.
Prominent Southwest Georgian
Suffers Apoplectic Stroke
at Leary, Ga.

From lbany Herald
News was received in Albany
Tuesday afternoon of the seri-
GUS illness of Capt. P. E. Boyd
at his home in Leary and in re-
Spouse to telegram DR.. His
man went out for consultation
with the local physicians.
DR.. Hilsman returned at noon
today from another visit to Capt.
Boyd's beside. He found the
sick mans condition rot improv.
ed, and reports that the case is
one to occasion the gravest fears
for the outcome.
Captain Boyd was packing his
trunk preparatory to a visit to
Indian Spring when the stroke
occurred. He fell across the
trunk in an unconscious cond1-
ton, and has never rallied. His
age and previous physical condi-
ton count heavily against him
and the worst is to be feared.
Captain Boyd is one of the
best known men in this section
of the state. He has hundreds
of friends in Albany, and it is
safe to say that nowhere has
news of his critical illness been
received with more sincere re.
gret than in this city.
A 'phone message from the sick
room today is to the effect Capt.
Boyd is resting quietly, tho still
unconcious.

4 Failure to Enforce the OhIo Sunday

Shelby. O.. May 2O.-When Constable Buck and his deputy. Will Harris walked out on the diamond here today, armed with warrants issued on behalf of the Law and Order League, to ar rest the players of Mansfield and Sha- ron baseball teams of the Ohio Penn sylvania league. 2,OOO spectators swarmed out upon the field and sur rounded the officers, who were beaten cuffed and jeered by the excited crowd The officers escaped under police pro- lection.
 Justice Sattey, who issued the war rants, was sitting in a buggy in the grounds, and his vehicle was surround ed and the wheels removed by the crowd, which however, offered no vio- lence to the justice. The ball players had been previously fined by the may or in the aggregate of S1OO. for viola ton of the Sunday law.

Washington, May 20.-The railroad rate bill, the statehood bill, the diplo- matic and consular appropriation bill. the naturalization bill, the pure food bill and the conference reports on the army and Indian appropriation bills are all possibilities of consideration in the national house of representatives this week. The certainties in this cal endar of business are that tomorrow will be devoted to the passage of minor bills under suspension of rules. With the filibuster of the democrats to pro- mote the statehood bill, the result will be comparatively small in the new measures passed. The diplomatic con sular appropriation bill will be called up Tuesday, according to the present program. The diplomatic bill Is a small measure and will require but a day or two at least in consideration unless it is to be made a vehicle for set speeches.
 The rate bill is likely to be made the subject of more or less discussion when a motion is made to send it to conference. Just what will be the character of this discussion or length of time it will occupy cannot be as- certained with any definiteness.
 Conferences on the statehood bill indicate that a preliminary report to the two houses is possibility of the not distant future. While nothing definite can be said as to the character of this report. it is believed it will in clude a compromise on the basis of the Foraker amendment, permitting the people of Arizona and New Mex ico to vote separately on the question of joint statehood.
 The pure food bill will be called up in the house at all times when an ap- propriation bill is not under consider ation.

 In turning a sharp curve at high speed, the machine crashed into a tell egraph pole, throwing the occupants out and the machine turned over on top of them.
 Mrs. Julia G. Young, 26 years old, wife of Albert w. Young, of Cleveland, is the name of the dead womau. She was killed almost instantly by being dashed against the telegraph pole and , sustaining a fractured skull.

BLACK TRAIL
 OF THE FIRE
Which Ragged in Northern Michigan Peninsula
The Burned Out FrOntiermen Thank ful That the Land Has Been Cleared for Them.

Milwaukee, May 2O.-h staff cores pondent of the Sentinel today, who made tour of the district of the up per peninsula of Michigan covered by forest fires in a special train. the first train to go through the district since the catastrophe telegraphs that the fire seems to be out in all of that dis trict. The fire ragged for distance Of sixty-four miles along the line of the Escanaba and Lake Superior railroad and for thirty miles beyond Charming. the terminus of the road.
 It seems certain now that 2,O0O per sons are homeless in that district, and that 1000 are left desolate at Quinne- sec. The Quinnesee fire, however, was of different origin from the Escanabe fire. having started in a field where men were pulling stumps and burning the debris. This first spread into the city, wiped out all the buildings except three residences, and the paper mills. Then the fire spread into the timber, and running north for forty miles, fin- ally joined the flames sweeping east of Escanaba.
 It was also learned today that Wood lawn and Kingsley. on the Escanaba, and Lake Superior line, and Perkins. on the Northwestern railroad, were de- stroyed. The strip burned along Es- canaba and Lake Superior road ap- pears to be thirty miles wide, and the alarming nature of the earlier reports of the fire seems to be thoroughly yer flied. Stories of heroic battles against flames are numerous. Dozens of towns were saved only by the most desperate battles with the flames
 Northland, a town of 1000 inhabit- ants, was three times threatened. The fire was checked each time at dis tance of only ten yards from the houses on the outskirts. One man who carried a coffin with the corpse of his dead babe thirty miles to Escanaba in his escape from the fire, went back on a special train and found his home gone, but a picket fence surrounding the house was untouched. The ashes of his home had been blown away by the gale and the fence was the only evil dence of human habitation. The rest of the town had been swept away.
 The remarkable feature of the fire is the fact that nearly all the refugees are not disheartened, but are deter mined to return and begin over. They have only the clothes they wear, but they say this is the fortune of the frOntiersman. and that if their homes are lost. at least the fire has cleared the land for them. and this much labor is saved.

Speculation Regarding the Houses Recep-
 tiOn of the Rate Bill
It is Intimated That the Senate Has Had All It Wants of the Philippine Tariff Bill-Possible Canal Leg islation.

Consequently there is no well defined program for future legislation, and no one has authority to state what course will be pursued. But the immigration bill is so generally favored by the re- publican leaders that there is no doubt that it will be given the next place of preference on the calendar.
 There is not. however, any further effort at legislation aside from the ap- propriation bills until the republican steering committee can get together and decide upon a program which will probably be some time during the week. The general disposition is to cOnfine business to the supply bills as much as possible, but there is a con siderable division of opinion with ref erence to the Panama canal bill and also on the question of the discharge of the Philippines committee from fur ther consideration of the Philippine tariff bill.
 There is a very strong pressure to secure consideration of the canal bill at this session, while the preponder- ance of sentiment on the Philippine question appears to be against the reOpening of the subject. The confer ence report on the Indian appropria- a- ton bill will be presented during the week and it will be taken up for con- sideration as soon as this is presented The report on the postOffice appropri- alton bill will be made late in the week and it too will receive early con sideration.

St. Petersburg, May 2O.-A bomb was thrown into the parliamentary camp this afternoon by a note received by President Mouromtseff of the lower house, from Peterhof, which instead of making an appointments for an audi ence at which he and a deputatiOn could present the address in reply to the speech from the throne contained the information that Emperor Nich- olas would not receive the deputatfon and that the address must be present. ed through the ministry of the court
 Disconnected utterly at this UneK- pected development, the leaders of the majority in the house hastily sum moned a caucus of the constitutional democratic deputies. President Mour- omtsef in sending addresses to Baron FTedericks, minister of the imperial house, immediately issued call for a meeting of parliament at II o'clock tomorrow, at which he will report the occurrence and ask for further in- structions: A most heated meeting is in prospect.
 The first disposition of the caucus of constitutional democrats which was in session all the afternoon and even ing and at midnight had not been con cIuded. was to regard the refusal to receive the deputation as a challenge and an open affront which was only answerable by a counter declaration Of war. The deputies were red with rage, but after. the first passion had cooled the leaders realized the danger of too preoipitate. action and set for them selves the task of bringing their en- ragged followers under control
 Outsiders were not admitted to the caucus but through the glass doors of the great hall of the Constitutional
 club. where the session was held, 1t Prince Peter Dologourokoff and others were on their feet time and again, pleading with and commanding their auditors to act deliberately and firmly and not ruin all by unreasOhing pas sion. Cooler counseIs seemed ulti-
 mateIy to be prevailing, but it is all most certain that the radical group, ! accompanied by a portion of the peas ants. will break away tomorrow and l endeavOr to force the house into some fiery declaration against Emperor Nicholas and the government, which might compel an immediate rupture and entail dissolution and civil war. The Associated Press is informed by
 a member of the ministry that Elm peror Nicholas was willing to receive President Mouromtseff. but that the action of the house in appointing a 1 delegation to accompany him was re- garded as a dangerous precedent, ca pablo of being stretched to a deputa- tion any size. even to the whole mem | bership of the house.

A TRIPLE TRAGEDY.
Three Men Found Dead in a Kentucky
 Warehouse.

Mayfield, Ky, May 2O.-A triple tragedy occurred tonight at Lynnville, this county. A visitor to a ware house owned by Mark Wilson, a prom inent merchant, found the proprietor, his brother. West Wilson, and Arthur West, lying on the floor shot to death. Revolvers were found beside the bod ies of Arthur West and West Wilson.
 Two citizens reported that they had been at the warehouse shortly be- fore o'clock tonight and left the trio apparently on good terms, although all had been drinking. The supposi- ton is that West Wilson and Arthur West engaged in a shooting affray killing each other and that one bullet struck Mark Wilson.

This saving he said, was brought about by the reduc- tion of the working force and a cut in the salaries of those retained. In the same manner, he said. a saving had been made in the ecclesiastical depart ment that would amount to $7O,0O0 an nually. Overseers who have been re ceiving $500 per month were reduced to $60.
 The pay of others was cut in pro- portion. His own compensation under the new adjustment, Voliva said was

KANSAS CITY MARKETS
Review of Prices and Conditions of
 the Week.

Kansas City, May 20.-Receipts Of ] cattle from remote states was the smallest of the season last week. A few Panhandle stockers sold at $40. but the weakness in stockers and feed- CTS has checked the movement in that class. The general market held steady last week on total supply of 3s,OOO head, which number just about fills
 the need of the trade just now. The
 supply is 1000 head, against ten to
 twelve thousand on recent Sundays, so
 that it is likely the run this week will
 be less than 8, 900 and the market strong accordingly. Prices are steady to strong under the adverse circum- stances of big run and 10 Scents low CT market at Chicago. much great CT percentage of we'll finished steers came in last week than usual. selling at S5.40 to s5.S5, while the plain me- dium class steers sold at s4T5 to S5sO Packers continue to pay strong prices for cows and heifers, as there is shortage of light weights suitable for killing; this will keep up till grass cattle move freely.

AUSTRALIANS FEAR
 THE JAPANESE
An Open Expression Of a Prevailing
 Secret Opinion.

London, May 2O.-The Chronicles Melbourne correspondent. says Sena- tor Dawson. former minister of defense. has declined to accept the hospitality of the Japanese training squadron vis- iting Australia. He explained that he did not wish to be discourteous, but that he would rot be a hypocrite. and said he believed the Japanese came to spy upon the land.
 Dawson prophecies. says tile corres- pendent. that Japan will some day en- deavOr to seize Australia. Dawson's actions are condemned, but that his views reflect the secret view of many Australians is not doubted.
