Representative Ebenezer j. Hill, one
of the most respected and Influential
Republicans in the House of Representa-
tives, said in his speech on Tuesday to
the Connecticut Republican State Con-
vention:
The right to preside and justly admin

the sole prerogative of the occupant of
the Speakers chair, and the respective
party leaders on the floor of the House
will be chosen by the representatives Of
the people and not be indebted to any one

Mr.. Hill stood with the Cannon organ

WESTERN UNION co. AND
 ENGLISH CABLE COMPANIES The Proposed Coordination in Oppo- sition to Commercial Cable Go.

New York, Nov. '14-Mr. Clapper- town. vice president of the Commer- cial Cable company, said today:
 T have read the replies of both Mr. Vail and Colonel Clovry to my state ment that MT. Vail was in Europe last summer and MT. Hall is now in Flu rope for the purpose of combining the Western Union with the two English cable companies. MT. Vail says that l am fncorrtct. but Colonel Clowry does not wish to be drawn into a cocn- troversy As to the combination, quote from the official report of the meeting of the Anglo American Tele- graph company's shareholders, held in London July 2s last when the chair man said: It is possible that if we succeed in identifying our interests with that of the American Telephone and Telegraph company, we may par uclpate more largely henceforwand in the growth of the b1e business'
 T wish to add that all this last summer and fall the English news pa ITS have been full of articles dis cussing this proposel combination Of the Western Union with the English Cable company, and it is a well known fact that the Western Union has prac- tically arrived st an arrangement with the Anglo American Telegraph com pany, but is meeting with obstacles in the direct United States cable com pany. l guess that no one on the oth- CT side of the water would care to de- ny that MT. Vail and Mir. Hall had been in Europe for the purpose of bringing about that combination in opposition to the Commercial Gable company.

 FOUND IN VACANT LOT.
John Knapp, Former Convict, Charged
 With the Crime.

San Francisco Nov. 14.-Beaten be- yond samblance to human form. the body of an aged women was found late today in a vacant lot next to the Savoy theater, in the center of the business district of this city. John Knapp, for mer convict, is in jail, charged with murder.
 The murdered woman was identified as Mrs. Julia Cary, aged S5 years. Identification was made by Mrs. Love, matroR of the city prison. who said Mrs. Cary had been in. prison a mum Der of times for petty offenses
 Detectives found ISnapp standing in front of a stable where he is employ ed not far from the place where the body lay. He was placed under arrest and in his room in the stable the officers found a window weight smeared with blood and knotted gray hair. Some ot knapp's discarded garments were cov- cred with blood and the collar and waistcoat he wore when arrested were spotted with bloody ffngerprints.
 A trail was discovered over which the woman had been dragged from the stable to the lot where the body was found. the room in the stable bears a strik- ing resemblance to Knapp and he has ackn owiedg ed that it is q portrait of his mother, Mrs. Sophia Knapp, of San Jose, Cal.

NAVY YARD INSPECTION. Secretary Meyer Determined to Cut
 Down Naval Expenses.

Washington, Nov. 14.-Secretary Meyer, who has jugt returned to Washington from an extensive inspec- ti, trip Of the navy yards and sta tions managed to make his tour highly profitable by cutting off S3oo.- 900 of naval expenditures in the wards he. reviewed. The secretary is prepar- ing recommendations to congress Tor the discontinuance of some navy yards and the substantial improvement Of others.
 It is probable that the Charlestown ward will continue to be merely tor. pedo boat station, as experts have esti- mated it would cost not less than $2- OOO. 900 to open up channel for heavy draueht battleships, while an appro- priation. of many thousands annually would be required to remove the silt which finds it's way into the channel.
 The Portsmouth, x. H.. yard has a. splendid dry dock capable of taking i'll the largest battleships, and there fore is not likely to be closed. For the same reason the Boston yard with it's two docks will certainly be main tained in full operation. There may be considerable CUT ailment of activity at some of the other Atlantic and gulf docks.

The Prisoners Daily Routine.
PENSIONS FOR ALL EMPLOYES
 OF NATIONAL BANKS
Protection for Their Families in Case
 of Death Also Proposed.

Washington. Nov. Extensions for all employees of national banks and protection for their families in case of death has been proposed to the treas nry department by the large mutual life insurance companies.
 Several representatives of the con- panies headed by WIG. Beers of New York, had a lengthy conference tcGay with the comptroller of the currency as to the legality of the plan. Their proposal is to have the treasury de- partment interpret the national bank law to permit the banks to take out special form of policy for employees. One form suggested is that the banks draw the dividends which would ordl- narilv accrue to an individual and ap- ply them to the cost. The plan would also provide for 8 lump sum erGoW- ment. and retirement a certain ages.
 Some time ago>a ruling was made that a national bank had no right ur- der the law to insure the life of one of it's officers. That ruling was made after it had been found that a life in surance conlpany had acquired string of banks and was drawing back all their earnings in the form of prenl- ums on the policies on the lives of of ficers.
 The latter proposal was taken under adVisenent.

MINISTER DAWSON WAS z |
 SUCCESSFUL IN HIS MISSION.
Steps Taken in Nicaragua to Hold a
 Constitutional Convention.

Washington, Nov. .s14-Indications are reaching the state department from Panama, where Minister Dawson has just arrived from Nicaragua, that he was wholly successful in his mis- sion to Managua. Acting President Estrada already has taken steps to- ward holding constitutional conven- tion to provide a regular and pernla- nent form of government and a. decree issued last Thursday calls for a meeting of deputies Of the constituent assembly on November 27 and 2S to arrange for such a convention in De- cember. This convention will provide for the election of permanent presi- dent and frame a constitution.
 Nothing is said by MT. Dawson as to when tine new president is to take up his office, but 1t is assumed at the state department that certainly not less than & years time will be requir- ed to restore the country to normal conditions and to complete the trans fer of power from the present provis- ional government

Annapolis. Md.

 The authorities are completely at sea as to the source of infection, for all food served. particularly milk and water, was submitted to careful eX- aminafions and found to be entirely free of any germs.

Albany. N. Y, Nov. 14.-Attorney General OMalley filed in the court of appeals today affidavits in opposition to the appeal of Mrs. Mary c. Thaw in her application for the transfer of her son, Harry K. Thaw, from Matteawan state hospital to some other asylum within the state
 Mrs. Thaws Charges Answered.
 Among the affidavits is one by Dr. Amos T. Baker, first assistant physi- elan at Matteawan. In answer to the charges of Mrs. Ihaw, that the con- finement of her son at MatteaWan IS inapairing his health pr. Baker says Thaw's surroundings in Matteawan are more congenial than they would be in a civil institution. To prove this he gives in detail Tshaw'S daily routine in ward No. 1, north, where he IS a prisoner The appeal probably will be argued Friday MT. Kennedy repre- senting the state.
 Thaw Has Gained 37 Pounds.
 Dr. Baker writes that since Thaw was committed to Matteawan he has gained 37 pounds in weight is permit ted to play cards with congenial com- 'panions. to receive visitors. take out door exercise, read the best of litera- ture, and is not compelled to associate with anyone who is not his equal ln- tellectually and morally
 One of Mrs. Thaw's contentious was that her son is compelled to associate with patients who use vile language ard who often assault him. Dr. Baker says that these assertions are wholly unfounded, and that, on the contrary, the record of Thaw's past life, as brought out iii the courts, would indi- cate that some of the patients might have good reason to object to assoct- ating with him.
 The Prisoners Daily Routine.
 According to Dr. Baker Thaw's rou- tine is as follows:
 ':IIe is compelled to rise al 5.45 in the morning. or earlier if he desires, and is served with breakfast in q din- ing room adjacent to the ward at 6I5 He has the privilege of a daily bath, in connection with which there is a shower and a spray. There are two barbers attached to the ward who are not patients, and Thaw can
