Tampa, FLORIDA, November 2: For
five hours today Robert Anderson,
the negro killer" who terroriZed
Iampa for two months recently, de-
tailed crimes which he committed, In
cluuing three murders, five murder
Gus assaults by shooting and nearly
100 incendiary fires. The negro was
captured in Jacksonville after hav-
ing escaped from the ofhcers mere
and was brought to Tampa late last
night. He at first feigned insanity,
but finally gave in after several hours
questioning by officers and made a
full confession of all his crimes. a
large crowd gathered at police head
quarters to get a view Of the negro.
That all might see him, he was placed
in the police court room and spec
tators were allowed to file through
between two lines Of police and view
cigar while being viewed by the
curious throng. Anderson attributes
his crimes to a desire for revenge be-
cause of the ill treatment OF members
of his race by white men.
THE forward turret of the battle
ship Maine, with the guns in place,
says a Havana dispatch to the New
York Sun, has been found by Capt.
Pope, who succeeded Major Ferguson
and is finishing the work Of removing
the cofferdam which was built about
the sunken wreck and leaving clear
depth CT water Of thirty-five feet. The
grapple Of the dredge caught, where
upon divers were sent down and
found the turret right side up with
the guns in place, forty feet distant
from where Major Ferguson found the
barbette overturned. The strangest
thing about the discovery Of the miss
ing turret is that Major Ferguson, in
driving the first piles for the Golfer
dam, found the top of the turret
shorn Of all rivets 125 feet from the
place 1t occupied on the ship. When
the water and mud was removed and
the ships bottom was revealed the
barbette was found near the ships
side, twenty-five feet aft Of its po-
sition on the vessel, and overturned.
This led to the natural belief that the
turret with the guns was under the
barbette in the mud.

after voting to leave the polls. Pa
trolls of cavalry and infantry con-
stantly circulated in Hayana to pre-
vent the gathering Of crowds, but their
services were not needed while the po-
lice did not make more than the usual
number Of arrests. After the polls

Washington, November 4: In pro-
mitigating today the first revision of
the equity rules of federal courts in the
last fifty years, the supreme court of
the United States prohibited the grant
ing of preliminary injunctions without
notice and restricted the granting of
temporary restraining orders. The
court embodied in the new rule many

junction bill for which labor leaders

stead of temporary restraining orders
being issued without notice upon pre-
sentation to federal judge on gener-
al allegation that immediate and ire
parable damage Is about to be inflicted,
the new rule requires that it must be
shown by specific facts set forth in af-
fidavits or otherwise that such dam

restraining order is issued a hen

was fixed by the rules. The new rules
do not require those procuring the re-
straining order to give a bond or the
judge to set forth in the order his rea-
sons for granting it. These were pro-
visions in the Clayton bill. Chief JUS
tice White did not refer to the anti-in-

changes in the old rules, but did en-
