CAFE KILLING IS
PROBED BY POLICE
Mirror Entertainer Is Formally
Charged With Numbering
Henrici

Murray Bennett, an entertainer who
struck William V. C. Henrici over the
head with chair in the Mirror cafe
last Sunday night, was yesterday for
mally charged with murder by Detec-
tive w. c. Kavanaugh.
The police assert that the conduct
of the various persons cognizant of the
maner in which Henrici met his death
is reprehensible, in that they did not
promptly notify the authorities. AS ii
was, Bennett was ready to depart from
the city when j. J. Crawford, proprie-
tor of the Holland hotel and employer
of Henrici as a night clerk, suffered
pangs of conscience and told the police
of the beating which Henrici had re-
ceived.
Kavanaugh is making thorough in
vestigation of the case and will have
all the witnesses testify before the
coroner's inquest this week He has
already discovered some facts which
indicate negligence in certain quarters.
The police report made shortly after
Henricfs death sets forth that Drs.
w. r. Severson of the Holland hotel
and DIR. w. f. McAllister of the Contin-
entail hotel gave the cause of death as
hemmorrhage of the brain. The body
was removed to the morgue, and there
DR.. G. a. Glover performed an autopsy
last Monday, and found that death was
due to kidney and liver trouble He
did not at that time open up the skull.
The body was removed to Thurmann's
undertaking parlorS at 1919 Mission
street where it was to be held await
ing instructions from Henricrs rela-
tiveS in the east.
Had not Crawford weakened and
notified the police Bennett would prob
ably have escaped from the CITY and
Henrici's body been sent away without
any investigation being made of the
quarrel in the Mirror cafe which led I'D
to the mans death.
II got quite a crack on the head.
didn't II" is the comment Henrici made
Sunday night to Crawford and Joseph
H de Vecmon, the electrician with
whom he visited the Mirror cafe, so
yesterdays investigation brought out
Milton Levy of the Mirror cafe will
be closely questioned as to why he tried
to suppress the facts of the quarrel,
and DIR. Seyerson will be examined fur
ther as to his conduct. Acting Captain
of Detectives Thomas Ryan questioned
him at length yesterday and was not
satisfied with Severson's answers. The
latter admitted having called Bennett
to his Office after the death of Henrici
and said it was just to learn whether
or not Bennett really had struck Hen
rici. There was no satisfactory answer
to the question as to why Severson had
not Immediately notified the police
when he learned that Bennett had
struck Henrici.
DR.. McAllister called on Captain
Ryan yesterday and convinced the lat
ter that he was blameless in the case.
He said he had been called in after
Henrici had died. He was surprised
that he had not been called as a wit
ness at the inquest and did not know
that there had been an inquest until
Crawford informed the police of the
crime.

II 10 JANEIRO, Brazil, Nov. 26.-
N The ships of the Brazilian fleet,
= which have been in the hands of
mutinous sailors since November %,
were surrendered to the government at
o'clock this evening This action
followed the granting of the mutineers'
demands by the government of am
nesty to all concerned in the riot,
higher pay and less work for the sail
ors and the adjustment of certain
minor grievances.
Tt was announced at 10 o'clock this
morning that the mutineers would sur
render, but for some time afterward
tinued their evolutions in the harbor
On this announcement the city resumed
its customary calm and business, which
had been in a measure suspended, was
again taken up. although the failure
to come to complete and immediate
understanding with the revolving sail
ors caused considerable apprehension.
The warships in the hands of the mu-
tineers include the NIinas Geraes, the
San Paulo and the Bahia, the Rio
Grande de Sui and the De Odoro.
After the announcement of the pro-
posed surrender the warships proceeded
out into the bay and re-entered the
harbor at 1880 O'Clock. no longer flying
the red flag.

neers. in company with 40 other sailors.
abandoned the Minas Geraes some time
yesterday and escaped.
It was rumored today that the Of
ficers who had been named to take
command of the warships after their
surrender would decline to do so, fear
ing the fate of Captain Neves: the COM
mander of the Minas Geraes who, with
several other officers, was killed by the
sailors when they offered hresistance
the night of the outbreak. This rumor
caused considerable alarm, but proved
to be without foundation.
A meeting of the naval club was held
this afternoon to discuss what attitude
the naval authorities would assume fol-
lowing the amnesty.

CANADIAN PROVINCE
TRIES Reputation
Government of Alberta Seeks to
Confscate Property of Amer
ican Bond Holders

EDMONTON, Alberta. Nov. 26.-For
the first time in the history of Canada
a responsible government has repudf-
ated It's contract and is now endeavor-
ing to conhscate private funds and
bonds subscribed by American citizens
on the strength of the contract.
1t is the Alberta and Great Water
for the people of Alberta, chiefly Amer
leans. are rising against their govern
ment demanding the early construction
of the line and alarm is felt that the
reputation OF this contract will have
a serious effect upon American immi-
grafton to Canada and investments in
this country by American firms.
The bill to repudiate this contract is
now before the legislature and II 1t
carries some ss.o0O.ooo of American
money will be used by the province for
building bridges, new roads and line
fences.
The promoters OF the Alberta and
Great waterways railway, which Is
a Kansas City organization, have been
patient and content to remain idle
while the people OF northern Alberta
have been demanding the early con-
struction OF the line.
The board OF trade of this city unani-
mousIy passed "a resolution today call
ing upon the government for the imne-
date construction of the line and this
resolution will be sent to the govern
ment.
The people are talking of putting. the
matter before the authorities at Wash
ington. for If the present intention of
the government is carried out millions
will be lost to American investors.

his associates had grading stations on
the first section, ties. telegraph poles
and bridge timbers laid for the first
100 miles and steel rails to the value
of s1,5oO.ooo ordered from the United

The election campaign is in full swing
and the country is flooded with oratory
and literature. Billboards are covered
with cartoons. The public however is
not showing the interest evinced in the
two previous contests.
UNIONISTS EXPECT TO GAIN
In some of the northern constitu-
encies, where there is no likelihood of
a change, the unionists and liberia Is
have agreed not to oppose each other
In other places the candidates who
secured overwhelming majorities last
January have been awarded a walk
over. Among the fortunate ones are
Joseph Chamberlain for Birmingham
west and Arthur S. Lee for Hants,
Fareham division.
AS the election draws near-the first
pollings will take place December g.
the prospects of the unionists improve
and enthusiastic members of the party
hope to win by from 20 to 80 seats.
The liberals are looking for an addi-
ton to their strength.
The big fight of the election will oc-
cur in the Manchester constituency.
Andrew Bonar Law, unionist. having
vacated his safe seat for Dulwich. to
oppose Sir George Kemp the liberal
member.
Wales and Scotland are expected to
re-enforce the liberals and the leaders
are even looking for the return of
some of the Irish seats lost in January.
Any increase in the followers of Will
liam O'Brien is Improbable It is nos
sible that he will lose one seat in
Cork, which John e. Redmond. who is
invading the enemies territory, hopes
to win.
Another interesting contest will be
furnished by Portsmouth. Edward
George Hemmerde, the liberal member
for enbighshire, like Andrew Bonar
Law, is giving up a certainty and will
attempt to wrest the Portsmouth seat
from Lord Charles Beresford.
On the whole it seems improbable
that there will be any great change
in the position of the parties.
The report is circulated in unionist
quarters that unless there is some sub
stantial change in the strength of the
parties the leaders have agreed again
to confer and thus avoid the necessity.

Exhibition

The Japanese training squadron

cloud of black dust marked the anchor
age in man-of-war row Of the mikado's $
ships. Barges laden with black dia-
monds were taken alongside the ships
at O'Clock in the morning and the
little brown mariners furnished San
Francisco with novel picture. Plat
forms had been rugged on the sides of
the ships at regular intervals The
coal was passed aboard in small bas-
kets, which were passed from the barge
and from platform to platform and
over the side into the bunker cfutes
with the steadiness of river at high
food, except that the stream flowed
uphill The empty baskets were thrown
over the side to the barge with an
abandon that made it necessary for
those on the barge to keep a sharp
lookout. At times the air was black
with empty baskets and more than
once a little brown bluejacket on the
barge was struck on the head and sent
