ton Following Sensational

from Washington Lieut.. Colonel Robert
+. ~Ames was today confined to quarters

take his life, following a dinner party at
the home of Ames, at Fort William Nc
Kinley The suicides wife remains at
the fort and probably will be the chief
witness at the courtmartial.
A Filipino coroner and an army board
of inquiry found that Janney committed
suicide and so reported to Maj. Gen.
William II. Carter. commanding the de-
partment of Luzon. After examining the
findings, the general returned them to the
board with instructions that II obtain tes-
timony on certain circumstances of the

ressrs as taken by the board, Lieuten-
ant Janney and his wife quarreled dur
ing tine evening Janney is said TO nave
recognized in the home of his friend
champagne cooler which had belonged u
him. bur which Mrs Janney had given
to Ames. Janney upbraided his wife be-
cause of the gift and harsh words fol-
lowed Finally Janney demanded an apol-
oCy from his wife and this was made.
This ended the quarrel. according to the
testimony and the dinner was resumed
RETURNED WITH REVOLVER.
A little later, however Janney left the
house, returning soon with a revolver,
with which IT was testified he shot him
self either through design or accident,
in the presence of his wife and Colonel
Ames. 1t was testified that Janney had
rushed into the dining room and -four
ished the revolver while he talked Wild
ly. Before the others could interfere,
they said he placed the revolver to his
head and fired. Death followed quickly.
Following the shooting Ames was placed
under arrest but q preliminary investiga-
tion of the board of inquiry having clear
ed him, he was released. The only wit
nesses OF the tragedy were Colonel Ames
and Mrs. Janney. Mrs. Janney testified
that her husband and Ames had been
good friends.

United States to Prevent
Fiqhtinq at BIuefieIdS

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-Commander
Gilmer, of the United States gunboat Pa
ducan. has served notice on General
Irias. who is in command of the Venus,
that he will not permit u bombardment
OF the city of Bluefields, Nicaragua, and
he has also notified General Estrada and
General Madriz that he will not permit
any armed conflict within the city.
These notices were sent after General
Irias had given notice of his intention to
lombard the city should General Estra-
da not surrender in the meantime. Gen
eral Estrada, it is learned, has refused
to comply with the demand for surrender.
Mr.. Moffatt, consul at Bluefelds, telc-
graphed under yesterdays date that the
Venus, commanded under Irias, with 800
men ad mounted guns on board, reached
Bluefields at p. m. demand for the
surrender of the city and the customs
house at the bluff were made through
the gunboat Paducah and the consulate
The demand stated that If the surreder
was refused Bluehelds and the bluff
would be bombarded
Commander Gilmer served notice on the
commanders of the Madriz and Estrada
forces and on Irias that for the pur-
pose OF protecting the lives and property
of Americans and other foreigners IN
Blueields he demanded first that there
should be no. armed conflict in the city;
second, that only such armed forces not
exceeding 100 men would be allowed In
Bluefields as were necessary for police
duty until a stable government is estab-
hshed; third, no bombardment of the city
will be permitted since there is no armed
force in Bluefields, and such bombar-
ment would result only in the destruction
Of the lives and property of Americans
and other foreign non-combatants
NJ To- ole
had replied to Irias, refusing to sur
render.

GOV. BROWN IS SILENT
As TO ANNOUNCEMENT
Has No Comment When In
formed of Hoke Smiths
Second Statement

Gov. Joseph H, Brown was told Thurs
day of the fact that former Governor
Smith would not be a candidate for gov
ernor, and had issued a second state
ment to this effect, but the governor
himself declined to make a statement or
to intimate whether he would be can
didate or, if he would, whether he
would have his announcement ready in
tie next few days.
The governor was steadfast in his re-
fusal, although 1t was pointed out that
public interest in his plans had bsen
reused since Mr.. Smiths second an
nouncement that he would not be In
the race. -
To friends Governor Brown has said
that he considered that the farmers of
the state were too busy just now re-
pairing crop damage, and he thought
this a bad time to stir up politics.
1t is generally believed around the
capitol that the governor will make the
race, ana speculation now centers on
the time , he will make formal an
nouncement to this effect.
