Spain regarded as one of the greatest
statesmen, was shot and killed to-
day by young anarchist, Manuel
Pardinas.

isolated crime for which the exact
motives are obscure. Pardinas was of
Spanish birth but recently from Bue-
nos Ayres Practically nothing is
known about him.
The foreign minister Prieto has
been appointed premier pro tempore.
1t is believed that General Weyler
or Count Romanones will be appoint
ed permanent premier.
Canalejas was shot three times in
the back as he was walking to the
ministry OF the interior this morning,
and died within a few minutes.
Pardinas then turned the muzzle
of his revolver on his own breast and
fired.
A crowd quickly gathered and
the assassin was half dragged to the
police station.

probably be held tomorrow.

BREAKING OF GLASS
.FRUSTRATEs BURGLARY
Passerby Heard Noise and Caught
Man Who Had Broken Into Walker
Bros, Hardware Store.

An attempt 20 buglarize the hard
ware store of the Walker Bros. Han
cock Co., at 1920 Elizabeth street,
at 1880 o'clock last night was frus
trated by the noise of breaking glass
attracting the attention of a passer-
by Jack Roetzel, of the Herald, who
was mailing a letter in a box across
the street, heard the breaking glass
and ran across to the place where
the sound came from and caught a
man half way up the stairway along
side the building occupied by the
hardware store. The man was turned
over to the police and taken to the
city lookup.
Entrance to the building had been
made by cutting the moulding and
taking out enough glass from one of
the front doors TO enable man to
enter. The cash register had been
taken from a table in the center of
the building and was found against
the door through which the building
had been entered. The cash register
contained only 1920 and could have
been rifled of its contents by the
mere pressing of one of the keys.
Guns and other valuables there
were in quantities, but an examin
alton revealed that no attempt had
been made to remove anything else,
up to the time of discovery.
When searched the man arrested,
a hack driver, was found to have a
knife, one of the blades of which was
bent at the tip. He gave the name Of
another man as being with him in
the attempted robbery, and this man
was arrested by the police an hour la
ter.

Justice in the automobile cases brought
before him, saws that common sense
should be the basis of automobile legis-
lation.
"Liberality and sanity should direct
the framing of all laws, says he.
0and the mn ngistrate should interpret
them in like spirit and be given pow"
er TO make the punishment fit the
crime.
"First, we must accept the automo-
bile as a permanent and important part
of our traffic. Then we must regulate
its speed, signal, lights, etc; in the
same wise, practical way that we regu-
late other traffic problems. with an eye
to the rights Of all concerned.
"In fixing fines no set rule can be
followed. A decision should be based
upon the peculiar circumstances In
volved.
IA man was brought before me
charged with speeding forty miles an
hour But he was guilty Of more than
excessive speed. he had raced his car
past a schoolhouse where the street was
throneed with children 1t was not his
fault that there was no serious accl-
dent and I fined him $50.
ffThat is the limit line in Kansas
