correspondence dealing with Mexico.
He feels that few, if any, of those who
have been taken into his confidence
have failed to agree with him that the
movement of troops to Texas was JUS
tilted. He thinks that since the lead
ers in congress have practically all
the information he has, it is their duty
to take any further action.
The president himself has let it be
known that no United States troops
would cross the line unless author
lied by congress, and Secretary of
War Dickinson confirmed that state
ment last night. No one here doubts
that Intervention would mean war.
War in Mexico, the presidents adj
visers say, would mean a conflict that
would range for months, probably
years. The topography of Mexico, the
mountains, the insufficient means of
quick communications and a dozen
other things that must be figured
would mean a long drawn out strug-
gle, in which the Mexican federals and
the Mexican insurrectos might soon
be found fighting side by side. Fur
thermOre, Intervention would be like
ly to dissipate all the good feeling
that years of careful diplomacy has
created between the United States and
h Latin-American countries.

JEALOUS LOVER SHOOTS GIRL
Father Searching With Lantern Finds
Body Of Daughter.

B~rainerd. April 19.-On the way to a
dance at st. Matthias. Bertha Jordan,
IA, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Carl Jor-
dan, was shot and killed by her jealous
lover, Charles kunde, 21. In the
buggy were seated Bertha Jordan, her
brother, Otto Jordan, IS, and the
Kunde boy. Near the farm Of David
Wickham they quarreled with her and
Kunde threatened to shoot. The
brother attempted to wrest away the
revolver and was thrown out of the
buggy by the Infatuated man. The
horse ran away.
The first shot at the girl missed her.
He fired two more and struck her in
the temple. The murderer then leaped
and a few minutes later the brother
Otto, who had been injured in the en-.
counter, heard a shot in the bushes
Kunde had killed himself. The bodies
of the girl and her lover lay 80 feet
apart.
The mother Of the girl was in Brain.
erd, and the old father took a lantern
and near midnight found his girl in
death, her little Easter cloak smeared
with her blood.
Bertha and Kunde had been keeping
company for two years, and it is said
she did not care to receive his atten.
tions any more, Is Knude appeared to
be very jealous. The parents of both
are we'll known farmers.

WAIST MEN HELD CULPABLE
Coroner Finds Verdict Against Pro
p~rietors Of Burned Factory.

New York, April 19.-Isaac Harris
and Max Blanck, proprietors Of the
Triangle Waist company. who are al.
ready under indictment charged with
manslaughter in connection with the
death of 145 employees by fire, were
found by a coroner's jury to be re-
sponsible for the death of one OF the
operators.
The verdict was returned in the
case of Mary Herman, whose escape
from the ninth floor was cut off, it is
alleged, by a locked door. Harris and
Blanck are responsible for the death,
the verdict reads, because Of culpa.
BILE and criminal negligence in failing
to observe the legal %precaution OF

st. Paul, MINI. The removal Of
clerks by order of Postmaster Cen
eral Hitchcock will not be submitted
to peaceably by the members of the
Tenth division.
The association held a meeting here.
1t was decided to use the efforts Of
the organization in securing the sup
port of all congressman in an endea-
o to have the two men reinstated
and furthermore that the mail clerks
have an opportunity to voice their
objections to unsanitary and danger
GUS mail cars.
The two clerks who were removed
and later reduced in pay and told to
report to the st. Paul and Minneapo-
lis postoffices for clerical work. and
Carl c. Van Dyke and Clyde l.. Duff.
The former is a brother of Cleve Van
Dyke, at n time executive clerk to
Governor Johnson, and it is expected
that inasmuch as Cleve Van Dyke is
a strong Democrat with many friends
in the present congress-, efforts will
be made to give the railway mail
clerks some encouragement in their
plans for recognition in Washington.
Following the meeting, which vas
attended by about 100 clerks, with
headquarters in the Twin Cities, one
of the most active members said that
the clerks all over the country would
take up the proposition to get their
congressman to put a stop to the So
called gag rule"
1t also was decided at the meeting
to employ attorneys. and James J..
Manahan has been appointed to look
after the interests of the clerks. 1t
was said that the appointment OF Mr..
Van Dyke as q local clerk in the post
Office carries with it the question Of
the right of the local postmaster to fill
a vacancy Of this character. Mr.. Van
Dyke was reduced in rank, and &C.
cording to the letter received by him
from the postmaster general, he is to
occupy q position in the postofice in
stead of with the railway mail serv.
ice.
Orders From Washington.
Both changes were made following
letters received by Superintendent
Alexander Grant from the department
officials at Washington and the reason
given for the changes was "pernicious
activity in ~endeavoring to foment dis
content. and in so doing ~exerting an
influence detrimental to the best in
terests OF the service and tending to
