mile In length. the lofty nave OF this
temple was pierced at intervals with
windows through which the cleaning
sun rays sparkled on columns and cubes
and immense clusters Of stalactltes like
pendant Jewels. Through the center OF
the ice palace flowed q stream Of water

Washington. Mar 26.-The last re- matning vestige of the Roosevelt or der taking marines of the battleships and cruisers of the United States navy was swept away today when President Taft, after the matteri had been con sidered at a cabinet meeting directed that an order be issued restoring the marines to exactly the same duties thoy performed prior to being ordered ashore.

Chicago, Mar. 26.-That William McDermott. retired member of the Chicago fire department Is the father of Mrs. James II. Boyle. who with her husband is charged with the kidnap- ping of Willie Whitla. was confirmed by the grief stricken father today.
 Information from Cleveland indicat- ing strongly that the prisoner arrest ed there was none other than the girl who before her marriage was Anna McDermott. was brought to William McDermott and his son. of the same name, who is a bank clerk, last night.
 Although the information seemed conclusive neither father nor son would definitely admit that the im- prisoned woman was their daughter or sister. They admitted that the evidence seemed conclusive. There was little sleep in their home at 690 Cleveland avenue last night. the long hours be- ing spent in hoping against hope that there had been some horrible mistake in the Republication
 Today, however, reporters presented every known detail of the identifica- ton as telegraphed from Cleveland and the old man broke down and declared that there could be no doubt that Mrs Boyle" could be none other than his daughter.

STATE WINS POINT
BREELAND's DYING STATEMENT TO
 BE ADMITTED.
Witnesses Testified That Breeiand Re- aIixing He Was Dying, Declared That Avery BlOunt Had
 Shot Him.

Amite, La, March 26.-The most inn portant development during the trial of Avery Blount. charged with mur- dering the Breeland family. came to- day when Judge Ellis decided to admit the dying statement of Breeland as re- lated by witnesses.
 Witnesses testified that Breeland had said he realized he was dying and then declared that Avery Blount had shot him; that either Ben Kinchen or Jim Bankston was with Blount; and that after he (Breeland) had been shot, they" shot his wife and step -daugh- ter. On cross examination one of the witnesses said that Breeland's reputa- tion as to truth was not good and that ordinarily he would not believe him under oath.
 It was also testified that Avery Blount was the only man living in or near Tickfaw who owned a ten gauge breech loading shot gun. Empty shells of this calibre were found on the scene 0f the killing.
 Bloant had told one witness, accord ing to evidence brought out by the prosecution, that he was going to Amite with Ben Kinchen and that Gar field Klncheon might also go. This was about o'clock in the afternoon of the day of the killing. At that time Blount was consta ble and Ben Kinch- en was presumed to be a fugitive from justice. Kinchen was charged with killing the husband of Mrs. Everett three days before. Mrs. Everett was a daughter of the Breelands. She was murdered at the same time as her par ents.

ANGRY WORDS IN THE HOUSE Representatives Almost Come to Blows. JUST A MISUNDERSTANDING Apologies Are Offered And Incident
 is Closed. Mr. Byrd Charged the Existence of . Combination in . Business In
 Which MT. FOrdney Was 7.
 Interested.

Washington, Mar. 2s.-Through a misunderstanding, Representative Byrd of Mississippi and Representative Fordney, of Michigan, almost came to blows on the floor of the House today while the latter was making a speech on the tariff.
 MT. Byrd asked Mir. Fordney if 1t were not true that a combination ex- isted among the retail dealers of Mich igap to which Mir. Fordney's firm. whicE Is operating in that State. was a party.
 MT. Byrd added that he knew where of he spoke when he charged the ex- istence of such combination.
 "The gentleman does not know a damned thing about it." shouted Mir. Fordney irritably. Immediately MT. Byrd made his way toward MT. Ford ney, but several Democratic members stopped him.
 Mir. Fordney apoligizes to the House and said that If he had offended the gentleman from Mississippi. he most humbly apoligized. He added. how ever. that MT, Byrd could not say that his firm was member of a lumber trust.
 Mir. Byrd then explained that 1t was not his intention to make such charge. and the incident was closed.
 Before concluding his speech. MT Fordney again referred to the incident with MT. Byrd. He said he was ex- ceedingly sorry that he had offended the Mississippi member because he had no such intention.
 "I thought" said he. "the gentleman made a statement which reflected Son me and that l was denying the facts In the matter. He says he did not so intend it. Therefore. wish most | humbly to apologize to him because would offend no man. either here or anywhere else without reasonable cause. did not intend to offend him. :.

seryian Government Will Not Re Hu- initiated and It Is Believed Con- troversy Will He Soon Ad-
 justed by Powers.

Vienna. March 26.-Baron von Aehr- enthal. the Austro Hungarian Foreign Minister, Is reported as having said that Russia's recognition of the an nexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina by Austro- Hungary is very satisfactory. that there Is no idea of demanding humiliating declaration from the Bel grade government. and that the points of divergence in the views of Austria and Great Britain are diminishing.
 The semi-official Fremderblatt an nounces that the government has com municated to Great Britain the mini mum conditions Servia must fulfill. and that Sir Edward Grey. the British For eign Secretary, has promised reply by Sunday.
 Prices on the Bourse rose sharply today on the belief that Russia's rec ognition of the annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina paves the way for peaceful solution of the controversy.
 There was much interest here today in an unconrmed report. published by The Neuefreie Presse that Russia and Austria were negotiating general agreement on all Balkan problems.

 Since that time her history has been a blank to her Chicago kinsmen. Even the name of the man with whom she cast her fortunes was unknown to them. They carefully read from day to day story of the Kidnapping Of Willie Whitla, of his return to his pa rents, and the arrest of the "Boyles" but they never dreamed of connecting Mrs Boyle with winsome head strong Anna, who had deserted her home to follow unknown paths
 Mir. McDermott has two other daugh- ters who are married.
 According to the statement of the father. the girl was educated at St. Vincent Academy fin this city and Fini Sawa Academy. near Madison. Wis.
 The aged father appeared heart broken today at the unexpected devel opments of affairs and said that unless something unexpected occurred in the Kidnapping case which would tend to discredit the story of his daughters connection with the affair. that he would renounce the girl and would not spend any money fin defending her.
 During the three years that the girl had been away from home only one communication had been received from her and that was about year ago. At that time the father was called up on the telephone and a voice which MT. McDermott said was that of his daughter called out: T have been married to a New York millionaire, papa"
 Recognizing the voice. Mir .McDer- mott hung up the receiver as he said he did not wish to hear anything more from her.

 Heir to Throne.

Belgrade. Mar. 26.-As soon as Crown Prince George informs his father, King Peter, that 1t is his irrevocable wish to renounce his right to succession to the Servian throne. the king will assent and will ask parliament to sanction a proclamation declaring his second son. Alexander. to be heir to the throne
 Alexander spent some time at St Petersburg as student and Is an in- telligent and serious young man. The cabinet has issued a statement that the servant Kelakovits for whose death the crown prince was said to be respaasible, asserted when he was brought to the hospital that his injury had been caused by falling down stairs in the dark.
 The body showed DO external in- juries and consequently the authorities have no reason to pursue the matter further.
