prophecy, but there are signs in plenty
 that sooner or later it will be realized, probably west as we'll as east of the Fa- ther of Waters. Probably few people un- derstand that through the larger portion of Greater New York the steam locomo- tive has been practically eliminated. Brooklyn authority says that "the steam of the whistle of a passenger steam loco- motve" Is a forgotten sound in that bor- ough, and steps are being taken all over Long Island to move freight trains by electricity. The same is true of Manhat- tan, where the last steam locomotive re- cetly ran in and out of the Grand Central station. Every railroad with New York terminal is preparing for identification, even where it has not yet been installed. If there are dangers to be guarded against there are also safety devices to which the force is being applied. The Interstate Commerce Commission is about to begin q vigorous campaign to make travel safer, and to this end will make a series of thorough tests and experiments to deter mine where the most practical merit lies in the various designs. It will begin with q safety stop system. already in use on the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy. The governing principle is electricity, and its purpose is to stop both engines when ap- preaching each other, at the same time signalling both the engine crew and the operators in the block signal stations.

family will be the one selected for the desperado's vengeance.
 It was in revenge that he acted yester- day. for Abraham Deyo had testified against him in an assault case recently
 Late this afternoon pursuers picked up Monroe's trail and tonight at dusk caught sight of him in a cornfield on the edge of some thick woods about mile west of Ireland's Corners. The posse surrounded the corn field, but the members were afraid to shoot into 1t for fear they might kill each other.
 From each side of the field the farmers and deputies started to work in trampling the corn flat as they went. so that this would give no chance to Monroe to es- cape hit
 Four or five of this group went down in flash, with their heads cut by the sharp edge of. scale beam.
 One negro who was in Monroes way was so badly wounded that 1t is feared he may die.
 The desperado made good his escape and is hiding somewhere on the mountain tonight.

 in His Belt.
 Madrid, Feb. 2.-The Foreign Oface today gave out a statement saying that the assassins of King Carlos and the Crown Prince of Portugal numbered six. all of them being. armed with car pines and revolverss
 They were paid by political agitators, enemies of the government One of the slain regicides was a Frenchman, &C., cling his body was a belt filled with gold, the profit of his share in the mur- derous act
 Simultaneously with the assassina- tion the statement also says. an armed band surrounded the home of Premier Franco in the outskirts of the city, but was beaten off by the guard.
 The dissidents had announced that grave events would develop from the situation in Portugal, but it was not imagined that they would take the grave turn they did.
 The Spanish press. while expressing sorrow and indignation at the assassi- nations. makes various comments upon the political aspect of the murder. The Liabilist says they were probably pro- voked by the negligence of the Portu- guese government, adding:
 We can only suppose that Premier Franco. the moral author of the hor- TOTS. if not yet dead from remorse. has already retired from public life"
 The Liberal prints rumors that the Spanish ministry of war will send troops to the Portuguese frontier in readiness for any eventuality.
 Fl Pals thinks the tragedy the result of political absurditles of Premier Franco.
 The accounts of the spectators of the assassinations vary. but it Is estab- lished definitely that they occurred at the Praco do Commercial after the mem- bers of the royal family had debarked from the train at Barreio and thence crossed the Tagus on a ferry boat to Lisbon landing. where they entered a carriage and were driven on.
 A smiling maiden had offered a beau tiful bouquet of roses to the Queen and it was with these that the Queen later, in a flood of motherly instinct. vainly sought to protect her sou from

 Madrid, Feb. 2.-The assassination yesterday of King Carlos and Grown Prince Luiz Philippe has created gen. eral sorrow in Spain, but at the same time it has awakened the fears that once obtained that a recrudescence Of anarchistic deeds are not improbable in this monarchy where the propaganda of the anarchists already has secured for them a strong foothold. Especially in Barcelona where the anarchists and revolutionists are nota' bly powerful did the news of the as- sassinatIons cause great excitement It is understood that for a long time there have been active communications between the actual revolutionaries of Portugal and Spain. having in view the acting in accord at the psych ological moment.
 These facts induced the government today to take a firm grip on the Span ish situation with the intention of fore stalling a possible outbreak of violence in the monarchy. A meeting of the council of state was held today at which 1t was decided to observe special precautions at the frontier and rigid rules will be enforced concerning the passage across the frontier of individ- uals. traffic and merchandise.
 Immediately after the council of state had concluded it's session, Pre- mier Maura left for Seville by special train for consultation with King AL fonSo.r

 An official report of the tragedy, which was given out by the Govern ment tonight to the newspapers reads as follows:
 "The King. Queen and Crown Prince were riding in the first carriage to their villa outside of Lisbon. Prince Manuel, with officers from the royal palace, were in the second carriage. In front of the Praco do Commercio man armed with a carbine suddenly broke through the front row of the crowd and shot at the King. The dis tracted Queen tried to shield the Grown Prince, who was defending himself courageously with his walking stick against two men. Suddenly more shots were heard and the Prince fell wound ed. The Queen shouting for help. bent over the body of the Grown Prince ana received his last kiss, The Prince im- mediately expired.
 "All three perpetrators of the crime were killed by the mob and the po- Iice."

Portugese Legation Draped in Deep
 Mourning.

Mourning.
 Paris. Feb. 2.-So great was the shock experienced at the Portugese Le- gation here over the announcement of the assassination of the King and Crown Prince that at first dispatches from Madrid giving an off1cial view of the events at Lisbon scarcely could be credited. Later the Legation was draped in mourning.
 President Fallieres received the news of the tragedy direct from the Duke of Oporto, the kings brother. The French President in reply telegraphed his condolences to the Duke, and also to Queen Amelie,
 The death of King Carlos and Prince Luiz Philippe and the manner of their taking off caused a profound sensation among the Portugese colony in Paris. There was general expression of grief and horror at the crime and execution of the murderers.
 Senhor Magalhies Lima, a prominent Republican. a Grand Master in the Por- tugese Masonic fraternity. who was banished for treason today charged Premier Franco with being alone re- sponsible.
 ''It is he.,' said Senor Lima, "who formed, vita cold calculation. popular discord and popular hatred.

 The clergy which announced the liberatto as immoral, and its author. Oscar Wilde, as a heretic, urged wo- men of the Catholic faith not to attend the management not to produce the opera. At the last moment, however. the announcement was made that the Vatican had decided to remove it's pro- hibition and the theatre San Carlo therefore was crowded to overfiowing.

New York, Feb, 2-In nearly every Catholic Church of the city tomorrow there will be celebrated a quaint cus- tom, which has been handed down through many centuries. commemorate ing the miracles in healing throat dis- eases, wrought by St. Blasius, or Blase. Bishop and Martyr
 St. Blasius was Bishop of Sebaste. a city of Cappadocio, in Lesser Asia, and during his retirement in the hills not far from the city he attained such a degree of sanctity that he was enabled to cure ailments of the throat merely by the laying on of his hands, he suffered martyrdom in the year SIS in the reign of DiocletiaRs aHd-at the instance of Agricolaus, the Governor.
 At the Council of Oxford in 1222, servile labor was prohibited on the saints day, and until quite recently St. Blasius festival was celebrated fin England by the building of great bon fires on the hilltops. Some contend, therefore, that the word Blaze comes form the name of the miracle-wofker.

 London, Feb. 2.--oficial announce ment of the tragedy at Lisbon was re- ceived at the Portuguese legation be- tween and 4 o'clock this morning. The details of the tragedy differed but little from those given In the newspa- per cables previously received here.
 Dispatches from Lisbon say that the strictest censorship Is still maintained by the government and in consequence the official reports that the assassins were anarchists instead of republicans is received with reserve here. The cen- sored teiegrams state that the effect of the assassinations has been to strength on the monarchist feeling. among the masses and that the army discipline is perfect.
 Statements regarding political condi- tions in Portugal will be regarded sus- piciously throughout Europe until news through other channels becomes avail able.
