Los Angeles, Cal, Feb. 26.--Propel- ling and controlling submerged tor pedoes by wireless currents, hurling instruments of destruction against hostile battleships without the sacrl- flee of man on the port of the naval power equipped with the new terror all this is made possible by the in- vention of a resident of Los Angeles.

 Nearly a month ago Abrahamson, in the presence of two attorneys, tive naval officers and two naval experts from the department at Washington, conducted experiments with his in- vention which, it is said, cleared up every doubt as to its ability to do what the inventor claimed for it.

Roosevelt Reported Killed.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-A rumor
tn at ex.President Roosevelt had been
killed on his hunting trip in Africa
was afloat in Washington this morn
ing, but search failed to discover the
slightest foun nd alton for it. Inquiries
from many parts of the country make
it evident that the rumor is wide-
spread. At the Smithsonian institute
no word of such fatality or even of
an accident has been received. The
state Department., which would be most
likely to be notified by its consular
atives in Africa, had received
no such news.
Confidential information from such
source whose reliability cannot be
questioned was obtained here this at.
ternoon, making apparently absolute
ly certain that no tidings of any mis-.
hap to Mr.. Roosevelt had reached
this country by any foreign cables.
This seems TO establish the fact the
rumor is without found alton.

Miss Wheeler's operations began

furious at being dipped in lime and
sulphur bath to kill the ticks on them,
q herd OF 36 buffalo stampeded on
Frank Rockefeller's ranch near here
yesterday and are now scattered over
Kiowa county.
When, in accord ance with the or.
ders of the government inspector, the
herd was driven into the dipping at,
the animals went wild and broke
through three barbed-wire fences as
if they had been made of twine. Five
horses were used in pursuing one bull
whose value is 81 500, but he is still
at large. Some of the animals are
vicious and may attack persons who
press them too closely, and this is
causing the herders apprehension.

CUMM|NS ANSWERS CANNON
Iowa Senator Defends Actions Of
Republican Insurgents.

CHICAGO, Nov. 6.-Senator Cum
Minis OF Iowa, in an address before
the Marquette club tonight made a
spirited reply to Speaker Joseph &.
Cannon, who recently criticised the
attitude of the senator and "insur-
gents as to the tariff, and declared
that Senator Cummins practically
proposed to join hands with Bryan.
Mr.. Cummins branded the latter as
sertion as false, declaring it to be
"simply an appeal to blind passion
and q senseless prejudice.'
Furthermore, be said, there was no
sion of the tariff against which the
insurgents voted.
81 marvel at not only the aud acity,
but the madness which Inspires the
attack which has been made upon the
insurgents, for if Mr.. Cannon and his
allies shall be successful in putting
every man out of the republican party
who would not have voted for the
tariff bill had he been a member of
congress, he will have eliminated q
majority of the republicans in every
northern state from Ohio to the Rocky
Mountains" declared Senator Cum
Minis.
Mr.. Cummins said that the republi.
cans in sympathy with the insurgents
intended to reduce the influence of
leaders in the party, mentioning Sen.
ator Aldrich, Speaker Cannon and
Representative Payne in this connec-
tion, to that point at which they will
feel it necessary to consult rather than
command.

New YORK, Nov. 3.-The forces of
fusion will be in practical control of
New York city's government after
January l, next, although the demo.
cratic candidate for mayor, VIM. j.
Gaynor, was elected to that Office yes
terday by q plurality Of approximately
$4,000 votes.
With the exception of mayor, the
fusion sweep was complete. Not an.
other democr attic candidate on city or
county tickets won. The fusion forces
by electing their candid dates for comp
troller and president of the board of
aldermen, together with the victory of
fusion and anti.Tammany candidates
for the presidency OF the five Dor.
oughs, will give the opposition to
Tammany 13 out of the Is votes in the
board of estimates.
All the officers excepting the mayor
are elected on the republican fusion
ticket and come into the management
of one of the largest governmental
funds in the world. 1t is estimated
that the next four annual budgets 60

istration will total more than $780,
600, 600. Contemplated subways, the
increase of the water supply and other
special improvements will bring the
total amount to be expended in the
next four years to considerably more
than one billion dollars.
Women played picturesque part
in the election. One faction of the
suffragettes conducted a mock polling
booth in Harlem, where all women
were permitted to vote and where the
socialist candidate for mayor polled
an overwhelming majority. In two
of the polling places on the lower East
side, women served as watchers for
prohibition candid ates. They were
all treated courteously and accorded
all the privileges of men watchers.
Three hours after the returns we're re-
ceived Tammany hall was practically
deserted and the great crowds which
in former years gathered there on
election night to read the returns,
moved to other places. 1t was said

Bahia was on his hands and knees,

at frequent intervals partially revived
him. While suffering from severe

Murder Mystery At CuIbertson.

CULBERTsON, Nov. 6.-That Thom-
as Harding of Meckinock, N. D., was
murdered with knife by some un-
known person was the verdict of the
coroner's jury which investigated one
of the most my ysterious tragedies which
ever occurred in this vicinity. Search
for the murderer is being made by
members of the sheriff's force, but the
clews are few and up to the present
time the mystery has completely BAT.
fed the officers.
Harding's body was found on the
ranch of Prot. J. w. Dale, about two
miles north of this city. Prof. Dale
was making tour of hisi property
and came upon the body, badly de-
composed, lying on one of the high
hills just ouside of his pasture fence.
He notified the authorities of his dis.
covery.
Coroner Peterson was called from
Glasgow and at once started ansinves.
tigation. 1t was found that the wound
which caused the young man's death
had been made with long, sharp in
strument, undoub btedly stiletto,
which penetrated the heart. 1t was
believed that the youth was not killed
where the body was found, but that it
had been carried there from a distance.
He had apparently been dead about
three or four weeks. Up to the pres.
ent time no one has beenlfound who
remembers having .seen the young
man about Culbertson. Mr.. Harding
has made arrangements to have the
body of his son taken home.
