TO FACE the charge of causing the death
of a yourg woman by means of a Grim
inal operation,
Judge Richie yesterday afternoon de-
MED DR.. MaXwell's third petition for
writ OF habeas corpus and the lat
ter's attorney at once gave notice of ap-
peal TO the supreme court. AS soon as
Dr. Maxwell was taken back TO the
sheriff's office he was turned over TO
the Ohio officials who FASTENED to the

When shown the picture Of Gov.
Steuncnberg in Saturdays Deseret
News, and asked II he had ever seen
him, he said No" But he read with
seeming interest the inhammatory let
ter of Debs the labor agitator, that
was printed directly under the halftono
cut
The man detained here gives suffi-
Gent warrant for his being held. for, In
addition 10 filling the requirements OF
the descriptive circulars sent out, he
was directing his course away from the
scenes OF the murder across country
and through the mountains In the very
worst kind Of weather, destitute and
OH foot. He refused to sleep I'm houses
under shelter, preferrlng to go oft by
himself and spend the night under Ssine
cedar tree.
Gov. Gooding has been wired and
asked to send an officer to identify the
suspected man. Locally there is no
doubt that Regan Is Simpkins. He Is
decidedly emaciated and faded, and It
Is anticipated that he will talk further
before many hours.

Primrose's individual forte always lay

his graceful dancing and humorous dit

SPOTTED FEVER
Dread Disease Makes Its Appearance
in Stark County.

Louisville, o., May 2.-Great uneas-
mess is felt at Louisville over the
death of Mary Nanblanet, who was
nurse for Mr.. Vernier, the young man
who died recently from what was sup
posed to be pneumonia. The nurse was
taken sick with symptoms similar to
those of Vernier and lived but a short
time. Others in the town have been
taken i'll and several houses are in
quarantine. The disease is character
lied as what formerly was called spot
ted fever.
1t is believed that with the precau-
tions that are being taken an epidemic
will be prevented. The cases quaran-
tined may not be serious.

SHOOTS CASE

on Privileges and Elections.
Washington, May 2.-The senate
committee on privileges and elections
discussed the case of Senator Reed
Smoot, of Utah, but no attempt was
made to take vote. Senator Bailey
thought that 1t would be possible to
have the vote on Friday next, but
Senators Beveridge and Overman ex-
pressed the opinion that no action
could be taken before next week.
The questions before the committee
are apparently resolving themselves
into the following form for the pur-
pose of the vote:
THAT Smoot should be excluded
because of the alleged fact that he
was ineligible -at the time he was
elected.
2@That he should be expelled be-
cause of his alleged higher allegiance
to his church than to his country.
8--That he be declared properly en-
titled to continue In his seat and ca
pacity as senator from Utah.

UNCLE SANS
NEGRO OFFICERS
Eight Now Hold Army Commissions
Two Come From the Ranks.

Uncle Sam has on his long payroll
eight negro commissioned officers of
the army, three of these being Off
GERS, while the others are Chaplains
and a paymasJGr.
BY the Army Organization act of
July 28, 1866, there were designated
four regiments of negroes. These or
ganiZations are now the Ninth and
Tenth regiments of cavalry and the
Twenty-fourth and Twenty fifth reg
iments of infantry, and since thei"
formation these negro regiments have
had assigned to them negro chaplains.
Probably the best known of all the
negro chaplains is Allen Allensworth.
Chaplain Allensworth has seen much
active duty, and his service with the
Fighting Twenty-fourth, which did
good work in Cuba, has been contin-
uous since his entry into the army
on April /, 1886.
Next to him as to age and service
is Theophilus G. Steward, who was
appointed on July 20, 1891, from the
District of Columbia and assigned to
that other fighting infantry regiment,
the Brunette Twenty-fifth. His serv-
ice has also been continuous with the
regiment to which he was first as
signed.
The present chaplain of the Ninth
Cavalry is George Washington Prio-
leau, a native of South Carolina but
appointed from Ohio. All of his serv-
ice has been with the Ninth Cavalry,
now stationed at Jefferson Barracks
Missouri He has fourteen years OF
service before him.
The last of these Chaplains is VIE
liam T. Anderson, now with his regi-
ment, the Tenth Cavalry, which has
also seen service in Cuba and the Phil-
ippines.
The last of the negro staff officers
of the army is John X. Lynch OF the
pay department, who entered the serv-
Ice in June, 1898, as an additional pay
master of volunteers, with the rank
of Major, which position he held for
three years, until honoTably discharg-
ed In May, 1901, when he was appoint
ed to the permanent establishment as
paymaster with the rank OF Captain.
The only negro officer of the army
who is West Pointer is Charles
Young, at present on duty as Military
Attache at Port au Prince, HaytI
Capt. Young entered the Military
Academy in 1884, and was not gradu-
ated until 1889, when he was com
missioned an additional Second Lieu
tenant and assigned to the Tenth Cav
airy, where he remained only about
one month. when he was transferred
to the Twenty fifth Infantry as a Sec
Ond Lieutenant. In this regiment he
remained only twenty-seven days,
when he was again transferred TO the
Ninth Cavalry, where he remained un-
til promoted to be First Lieutenant,

Government Would Not Receive the
Colombian PIenipotentiary.

Washington, May 2.-The state de-
partment has been informed by United
States Minister Russell at Caracas,
Venezuela, that the plenipotentiary of
Colombia, empowered to arrange with
the Venezuelan plenipotentiary a
treaty of navigation, commerce, etc.,
arrived some time ago, and request
ed audience with the acting presi-
dent. The Venezuelan government re-
piled that it could not receive the
Colombian plenipotentiary under the
terms of the protocol of last Deem
ber, until the treaty had been signed
and put in force. The Colombian Of
fetal insisted, says Mr.. Russell, and
the Venezuelan government finally re-
fused to correspond with him, and
notified the Colombian government
that she must send another represen-
tative.
