His death creates a vacancy in the
senate that probably will be filled by
Republican, through appointment by
Governor Goldsborough of Maryland.
Senator Rayner was one of the strik-
ing figures of the senate. He had been
a member of that body for almost
eight years and was one of its strong
est debaters and a recognized author
ity on matters of constitutional law.
Mr.. Rayner was native Of Balti-
more and was sixty-two years old.
The senator's death removes one of
the Democrats on whom the control of
the senate depended in the new con-
gress.
Funeral services were held at his
former residence Wednesday.

PEACE DELEGATES HOLD
SESSION TO END WAR
Result of Discussion s Kept Secret
Feared Austria May EmbroiI
All Europe.

London, Nov. 81. - Peace ENJOYS
have begun work on the preliminaries
for negotiations for an armistice be-
tween Turkey and the allied Balkan
nations. The plenipotentiaries of
those countries held their first meet
ing at the village of Beghtche, near
Biyuk Chekmendye, in the center of
a small zone which has been de-
clared neutral for the period of the
parleys.
Beyond an intimation that the vic
torious invaders are prepared to mod
ify their original demands in regard
to the evacuation of the Tchatalja
lines by the Turks and also to permit
the Turkish garrison OF Adrianople to
march out of that fortress with the
honors of war, nothing has been al
lowed to transpire as to the discus
sions between the delegates.
While the principals are thus en-
gagged in efforts to arrange a truce
between the opposing armies prepar-
atory to a definite peace, preparations
elsewhere for possible trouble on a
larger scale show no signs of abate-
ment.
The specific statement published
in Berlin that Austria had prepared
an ultimatum to be sent to Servia
within a few days caused big slump
on the bourse, but was denied by the
German foreign office. The kaiser
is using all his influence to preserve
peace.
There is even a strong anti-war
party in Austria itself, and Franz
Ferdinand will ruin his popularity in
Hungary, where alone he is popular,
if he pursues his warlike policy, as
the Hungarians are strongly opposed
to war 1t is admitted in ministerial
and diplomatic circles that a certain
amount of mobilization is going for
ward in Russia and Austria to provide
against possibilities.
Berlin, Germany, Nov. 26.-Accord-
ing to messages to the Berlin morning
papers from Budapest, serious dis
turbances occurred there Sunday
on the occasion of socialist anti
war meetings. A great procession
marched through the streets and SAN
culinary encounters occurred between
the police and demonstrators. Many
were wounded with revolver shots and
sword thrusts, IA MORALLY. Thirty ar
rests were made.

DEATH TAKES SENATOR

REFORMATORY is WANTED
Board of Control Will Ask Next Leg.
islature for Funds to Erect
Building for Women.

Madison.-The state board of con-
ture for funds with which to build
a womans reformatory and new
home for the feeble minded. No
other new institutions are needed so
urgently as these, it is stated by
President Ralph E. Smith of the
board. The state has no women's re-
formatory, the Milwaukee industrial
school being in private management
but under the boards inspection from
time to time.
The Milwaukee school, also, is pri-
marily for girls. Women offenders
are sometimes sent to houses of the
good shepherd in different cities, and
the system has long called for
change. The beneficent effects of
the probation law would be greatly
enhanced were the state to maintain
woman's reformatory of it's own, in
President Smiths opinion.
The last legislature authorized
the selection of a site for new
home for the feeble minded, and the
board will inform the legislature of
it's choice. Then it will ask the So
Ions for an appropriation sufficient
to build the structure. The home
for the feeble minded at Chippewa
Falls is taxed to it's fullest capacity
and one of the boards hardest tasks
is the disposition of applications for
entrance to the institution. Hence
the necessity for another building.

Manigal at the dynamite conspiracy
trial by Senator Kern.
McManigal said he and the McNa-
maras talked of blowing Los Angeles
off the map, so that history Of the
Pacific coast would date from that
city instead of from the San Fran
cisco earthquake.
A plot to destroy the whole city of
Los Angeles by explosion and fire, to
make history on the coast date from
the destruction of that city, instead
Of from the date of the San Francis
co earthquake, was among those of
which the dynamiter told.
In desperate desire to carry out
this dynamiting program, if the execu'

of the money supply, John j. McNa-
mara was ready to resort to the
'hold-up" or highway robbery to get

Manigal said he had conversation
with J. J. Mcnamara, in which the
latter told of the plan. J. J. also
said, according to McManigal, that he
knew a man in this city, who banked
$1,000 or $4,000 each day and that
it would be an easy matter to "trip
him up" and get the money.
How J. J. Mcnamara sought to get
McManigal to go to Panama to blow
up the canal locks under construction
by the McCIintie-MarshaI company
was another interesting episode II
