MURDER MYSTERY
 STILL UNSOLYED

Cincinnati, October 2e.-After a night and day of investigation the Cincinnati police were no nearer tonight to solu- tion of the mysterious and brutal murder of Mrs. Mary Hackney than they were when the mutilated body was discovered in her home last night.
 Three men are under arrest, but no formal charge has been placed against any of them.
 A daylight search today of the grounds around the house where the murder was committed revealed very little that would tend to furnish a clew. Much of the evidence that was found during the day was in the nature of testimony of people who knew MT. and Mrs Hackney, and who declared they had never heard of any trouble between husband and wife.
 The murderer left his fingermarks on the door, the panel of which has been sawed out and is being held by the police in connection with their work in securing evidence.

Modern Public HIghwaymen

From Juuge.
 The people of the city are not the only ones who pay tax money for the build ing and improvement of streets and high ways that never is spent on the road ways. And this condition in the country gave John Winters a chance to say one of his occasional good things. It was at a town meeting. The people of his vll- lage could not understand how the money appropriated for roads had vanished with such negative results. and some of them attended this meeting of the selectmen to discuss the matter.
 A stretch of road along Winters prop erty was In notoriously bad condition, all though he declared he had paid liberally to have 1t put in good order There was general interest when he rose to make his statement before the meeting.

ASSASSINATION IS~
 STILL DISCUSSED

Havana, October 26-The Havana news papers continue active discussion of the attempted assassination of Mai Gen. Pino Guerra, commander of the Cuban army, and are becoming more outspoken in their intimations that the crime was the result of a plot in which some of the highest officials in the government are implicated.
 Lucija says editorially that it is incum- bent upon all lovers of their country who are in possession of any information bear ing on the subject to come forward and make their declarations. It insists that justice shall be done. no matter who Is hurt.
 The date of the trial of General Guer- ra's assailant has not yet been fixed. The generals condition is reported to be improving.
 The newspapers also highly approve the resumption of duties og chief of police by General Riva, who. after being ordered to proceed to the United States, ostensibly on a diplomatic mission, was instructed to return to his official post. Credit for the revocation of his original orders is given to the American minister, John B. Jackson. who protested to President Co., meg on the ground that General Riva's presence would add materially to the as- surance of a fair election.

END OF ROMANCE
 IN NOME DISTRICT

Seattle, Wash, October 26.-The steam ship Umatilla arrived from Nome today with 511 passengers and s25O,ooO in bull lion, and was followed closely by the steamships Victoria and Northwestern, each carrying gold and heavy passenger list.
 The exodus from Nome marks the end of the romantic period of the famous gold camps history. In the summer of 1900 10000 persons were assembled upon the beach at Nome, whose sands were rich in gold dust. The camp has yielded $40, 100000 in gold and still is producing. but the rich dirt that could be worked by hand has been washed and the min ing henceforth will be done by dredges on a large scale.
 There are nearly 25OO men in the In- noko and Iditarod districts. and several hundreds in the diggings north of Rome. There are still '.poor men's' camps, but Nome has gone the way of Klondike and will transform no more laborers into mill lionaires.
