MURDERED GENERAL E
- MISTAKEN FOR TREPOFT

z st. Petersburg, July 16.--Additional
details of the assassination of General
Koslov, of the headquarters staff in
the park at Peterhof on Saturday,
prove beyond question that the muir
derer believed he was killing General
Trepoff. The tragedy occurred in the
presence of several thousand people
who were listening to the music in
the English park below Grand Cha
teau, adjoining the park of the Alex
ander palace, where the imperial
family and General Trepoff reside. A
young man dressed as a workman,
gazed long and earnestly at General
Kozlov, then took a photograph from
his pocket to compare it to Kozlov's
features. He then drew a pistol and
fired four shots point blank at Koz-
Low, who fell mortally wounded and
died on the spot. The assassin start
ed to flee but Prince Andromiroff
seized him and turned him over to
the police. When searched Trepoff's
photograph was found in his pocket.
The assassin refused to give his name
but avowed he was a member of the
social revolutionary organization.
Kozlov was not involved in politics
but was married to a daughter Of the
famous field marshal Alexander Sou
VarOff

KILLING OF GENERAL KOSLOV
HAS BAD EFFECT ON GAR

st. Petersburg, July 16.-There are
no developments in the cabinet sltua-
tion. The murder of General Koslov
is reported to have made an exceed
ingly bad impression on the emperor
and the Novoe Vremya denies that
the cabinet had resigned. The hesita-
ton at Peterhof has raised hopes in
the minds of some of the present pre-
mier's colleagues that he can hold on
even in the face of the adverse vote
in the upper house of parliament on
Saturday.
NJ. Rodtcheff, leader of the consti-
tutional democrats will head the dep
tation of the Russian parliament to
the conference of the inter-parlia-
mentary union in London, which as
sembles July q, NJ. Allalin represent
ing the group of toll.

BLOODY SIX-ROUND
BATTLE IN PHILADELPHIA
California Amateur Gives Quaker City
Man Fight of His Life.

Aldil VI Ills
Philadelphia, July 16.--Sam Berge",
the California amateur heavyweight,
gave Philadelphia Jack O'Brien the
hardest battle of his career tonight
Notwithstanding that O'Brien contin-
ually sent his left TO the chin add
Wind, Berger came back and forced
the fighting in every round. O'Brian
had all the advantage in the opening
round, and landed at will His foot
work seemed to dazzle Berger, but rs
the fight progressed the Californian
improved. In the second round Ber-
ger opened up deep cash over o.
,Brien's left eye, and the Philadelphian
had Berger bleeding from the nose.
Both were covered with blood as they
went to their corners. The contest
was one OF the ftstest ever witnessed in
this city between heavyweights.
O'Brien was forced to use all mis-
cunning to avoid Berger's rushes, and
the latter again opened up OBrien's 5
damaged eye with a vicious swing
Just before the close of the round,
O'Brien's short-arm jolt to Berger $
jaw made the latter's knees knock to-
gether. Berger had the Philadelphian
decidedly worried in the two closing
rounds.
When OBrien led he would invar-
ably jump I'm the air, and swing his
left around Berger's neck. The evi-
dent intention being to tire his heavy
opponent
When the fight ended both men
were covered with blood, and the ref
eree's shirt was crimson from his af-
forts to separate them.

Mrs. ThaW Assumes CHARGE
Of Sons Defense
DEFENDANTS WISHES NOT
CONSIDERED IN MATTER
Insanity Plea Will Probably Be Relied
Upon to Save Whites Slayer
From the Death Chair.

New York, July 16.-Immediately
following her interview with her son,
Harry X, Thaw, in the Tombs today,
Mrs. William Thaw assumed full
charge of the defense and arranged
to retain the services as counsel Of
the firm of Black. Olcott, Gruber and
Bonynge who We're dismissed by
young Thaw few days ago. This ac-
tion is taken to mean that Harry
Thaws desires and opinions regarding
the defense will be ignored and that
reliance will be placed on the plea IF
insanity, insistance on which by Mr.
Olcott resulted in the rupture between
himself and his client Whether an
application will be made for the ap-
polntment of a committee OF lunacy
to determine young Thaw's mental
condition will probably be determined
at conference to be held by Mrs.
Thaw and the counsel tomorrow.
The meeting between Mrs Thaw
and her son at the Tombs was an
affecting one. During the interview
the prisoners wife stood in silence in
the corridor a few feet away from the
cell door, waiting her turn to speak
with her husband. No words were
exchanged between Mrs. Thaw and her
daughter-in-law.

Serious Damage Attended
Yesterdays Shake Up
MANY PEOPLE FLEE
FROM DISTURBED REGION
University Considers Installation Of

The Disturbances.
Special to the Morning Journal

Special to the Morning Journal
Socorro, N. M, July 16.-This city
was again visited at 1855 o'clock this
morning by a severe earthquake which
shook down great many chimneys,
cracked the , is of buildings, smash
ed bric-a hrac and crockery, and
completed thu panic into which the
people have been gradually worked
by the continued shocks of the past
two weeks. Considerable damage was
done but no one was injured in the
slightest.
There were two or three slight
shocks during the night and sharp
one ut 6 O'Clock in the morning. 1t
was quiet. at 10 o'clock, when an
other slight quake was experienced
followed by the severe one just before
noon.
Almost every house IN town has
been vacated and people are living in
tents or in the open air, so thorough
ly have they become frightened by
the disturbance.
Two big chimneys on the high
school, two on the postoffice building
and many others have been shaken
down by the continued shocks. Slight
tremors have been occurring all day
at intervals of about fifteen minutes
and there have been from five to
twenty-five slight shocks every day
for the past two weeks.
Today's shock was severe at San
Antonio, Carthage, San Marcial and
as far south at Las Cruces, the CEN
ter of disturbances, however, seeming
to be near Socorro.
Many persons are leaving the city
and the frightened native people con-
tinue to have the professions and go
through other religious observances.
Very few are venturesome enough to
remain in their houses and the con-
tinued quivers keep the inhabitants
in constant state of alarm.

CONVICTED REBATERS GET
STAY OF EXECUTION
Chicago and Alton Officials Appeal to
Higher COurt

Chicago, July 16.-Judge Peter S.
Grosscup in the United States court
today granted the Chicago and Alton
railway company, j. N. Faitheri and
Fred A. Mann writs of supersedeas
staying the execution of a fine aggre-
eating 100000 assessed against the
defendants short time ago by Judge
Lands in the United States district
court on charges of granting illegal
rebates to the Schwarzchild and Sulz.
berger Packing company corporation.
At the same time a bond of $50, 600,
covering the fine pending an appeal of
of the case to the United States cir
cult court of appeals was filed by the
defendants.
This is practically friendly pro-
ceeding because both sides of the case
are desirous of having a decision of
civil courts on the rebate question.

Prospects Bright For
Early Ending of War
In Central America
Peace Commissioners to Meet on United
States Cruiser Marblehead

Washington, July 16.-The navy
department was informed this after,
noon by cablegram from Commander
Mulligan of the arrival of his ship,
the Marblehead, at La Libertad, from
Panama, which port he left last Fri
day night Before sailing Comman-
der Mulligan was Instructed by the
navy department to report to the
American minister at La Libertad,
which is the port nearest San Saliva
dor, the capital of Salvador. In the
absence of Mr.. Coombes, who is de-
tained at Champerico awaiting next
Tuesdays steamer, Mr.. Brown, the
American secretary and charge in
Salvador will communicate with COM
mander Mulligan and that officer will
place his ship at the disposal of the
American legation so that Mr.. Brown
Will be in a position to carry out the
instructions which were cabled him
today from Washington to proffer to
the governments of Salvador and
Guatemala the use of this American
ship as place of meeting of the
peace commissioners. The details of
the meeting will be left to the Amer
lean legation. 1t is stated that neith-
Coombes and Brown will act in the
capacity of peace commissioner to
either country; they are charged sim
ply as good friends to both parties to
endeavor to bring the hostile nations
into friendly relations without further
loss of blood.
1t Is believed that the Marblehead
will take on the Salvadorean commits
sioners at La Libertad and then pro-
ceed to the nearest Guatemalan port,
San Jose, where agents of that gov
ernment will board the shin which
will then go to sea beyond the three
mile limit until the conferences are
over.
The important development of the
day, aside from the offer of the Mar
blehead was an assurance to the state
department from President Cabrera
that Guatemala would refrain from
further hostilities If Salvador would
undertake to do the same, which news
was promptly communicated to Min
lister Merry at San Salvador in order
that he might transmit the PROPOSE
ton to the government at that place.
Another point developed was that
Salvador and Honduras had entered
into an alliance, the nature of which
is not certainly known, but it is be-
lieved by officials here that the pur-
pose Is to agree upon terms of peace
that shall be proposed by the two
countries to Guatemala. This news
came to the state department by
Charge Brown at Guatemala City.
Still another cablegram, this one from
Minister Merry, Informed the state
department that the government OF
Honduras insisted upon being consid-
cred along with Salvador in the peace
negotiations with Guatemala. Alto
gether the prospect of the peaceful
termination of the present difficulty is
believed to have frightened considera-
bly, during the day.

SENATOR BURTON'S APPEAL
REACHES THE SUPREME COURT
Alleges UncOnstitutiOnality of Law
Under Which Conviction Was
Obtained

Washington, July 16.LThe petition
of former United States Senator Bur-
ton for hearing by the supreme court
of the United States. in the case
against him, was received today by the
clerk of that court. The petition is
signed by all of Burton's counsel. They
contend that section 1882, the statute
under which Durton was prosecuted
was unconstitutional and void, and 1t
urged that the opinion of the court
shows that many important considera-
tions bearing on the statute were over
looked. 1t is also urged that there
was no proof to sustain the charge
of the indictment that Burton render
ed service to the Rialto Grain COM
pany in the proceedings of the United
States Vagainst it; that the offense, if
any was committed, occurred only
once, and not continuously every
month during Burton's employment as
counsel by the company; that the let
ters of the complaint sent to the post
office department should not have
been read to the jury, and that mucn
testimony was admitted that should
have been excluded. and much that
should have been admitted was eX-
cluded

In letter to William Hoge, president

for reception so far as they have been
laid before him and cautioned his

suggestion that a popular subscrip-
