CANTON, O.. May 29.-NIrs. William
Mckinley. wife OF the martyred presl-
dent calmly fell into the sleep that
knows no awakening on sunday after
noon at q 90 o'clock. The transition
from life TO death was so peaceful and
gradual that it was with difficulty that
the vigilant physicians and attendants
noted when dissolution came.
There was no struggle; no pain. Mrs.
Mckinley never knew OF the efforts
made for days TO prolong her life. nor
of the solicitOus hope against hope OF
her sister and other relatives and
friends for her recovery.
At the Mckinley home when death
came there We're present Secretary
Cortelyou. Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. c. Barber.
Mrs. Sarah Duncan. Mrs. Luther Day.

They were talking about fads.
Suppose l should bring you a
Roosevelt bear?" ventured the young
man.
"Oh. wouldn't care for a Roosevelt
bear" replied the pretty girl
And why not. my dear?'
Because Roosevelt bears can't

SENATE FOR RECOUNT.
Kew York Nnycrafty Contest Bill
Goes Through

Goes Through.
ALBANY, y. y. May 29.--The may
orally recount bill passed the senate
after a lively fight In which Senators
McCarren and Grady distinguished
themselves.
The vote was 80 TO 6.
When the bill was called up for ac-
ton McCarren showed himself to be
the sole champion OF Mayor McClel-
Ian. while Grady. trimming over with
sarcasm and invective. assailed the
mayor, whom he characterized as IAN
eel
McCarren referred contemptuously
TO the Republicans as whipped dogs
and to Hearst as n poor loser" He
began by assailing Governor Hughes.
Suppose" he said. THE governor had
been elected by a majority OF a hun
dred. Would any Republican senator
vote for a recount? OF course not. DO
you think the governor would petition
for a recount2
"At the beginning OF the year Gov
ernor Hughes said he was going to let
you do your own thinking and tell your
real names II you wanted. Yet at the
end OF the session he precipitates a
message in order to force you TO pass
this bill
"Why. whipped dogs present cour-
ageous spectacle beside the exhibition
of the senators here. There is not q
single Republican on this floor who
will defend this bill. not single one
who would vote for IT II he followed
the dictates OF his own conscience.
Grady. replying vehemently TO Nc.
Carren. declared that there were not
only Republicans who could Justify the
bill. but Democrats as well
let US get at the facts" urged Ora
dy. There Is a contest going on be
tween George r. Mcclellan and vii
liam r. Hearst. Make no mistake
about IL. Mcclellan will file n petition
for a canvass unless he believes the
further you go i'm this canvass the
worse the result will be for him"

Will Benetit Settlers.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l..-Chief
Sharp of the field division of the land
Office at Helena will receive i~nstruc.
tions from the general Office in this
city modifying previous orders so
that in 800 cases pending before the
land Offices the settlers need not go to
the land offices with their witnesses,
but may have their hearings before
the nearest land commissioners.
This order will save many litigants
going a. much as $50 miles to appear
in the land Offices with their witnesses,
and will save a great expense to the
settlers. The action is taken by the
general Office at the instance Of Con-
gresham Charles n. Pray Of Mon
taua, who has been interchangeable in his
efforts to secure relief for the settlers
who are involved in land litigation.
Congressman Pray states that in
many instances he found that the set
tiers were forced to forego their claims
to desirable tracts of land because
they could not defray the expense Of
taking their witnesses to the land
Offices. The new order will save more
than $40, 900 in Montana alone.

Hill Defends Railroads.,

WAsHINGToS, Dec. l7.-James j.
Hill, head of the Great Northern
railroad. was called upon yesterday
by the interstate commerce commits
sion to explain the position of his
road with regard to the increased
lumber rates to which the lumbermen
OF Montana, Oregon and Washington
have objected. The complaint is now
Do hearing before the commission.
Mr.. Hill stated hat last summer
when he began Investigating the cost
OF hauling the lumber from Washing
ton and Oregon he discovered that
the company was doing business in
thi 5 line at a loss of $50 a car for
every carload of lumber hauled the
+ 1000 miles to the east. He stated
TIL at the cars were SEM west usually
empty: that the cost of the round trip
per car was about $3.50, while the
company received only 5000 per car
tariff. This situation was so serious,
from the viewpoint Of the railroad
lines, that it was necessary to take
some action that would remedy it.
