chamber of deputies.
vast silent crowd of people gath
cred both in and outside the chamber

statesman. The population of the
capital appears to be deeply impress

until more convenient date.
The assassin worked at his trade as
a printer in Tampa, Florida, for some
time, having gone there from Havana,
Cuba. He left Tampa as recently as
last January and is assumed to have

An element of mystery was injected
into the tragedy because of contra

only volunteered his services to them
after the shooting. Miss Meyers is
said to have told the Trenton police
that Cuthbert was travelling with her

According to the Trenton police,
Miss Meyers said that while lying in
her berth, she had heard noise as if
some one was climbing into her
berth. Believing she was in danger
from an intruder, she fired. Her
mother, who was returning from the
womens retiring room, received the
bullet.

last week.
The debate precipitated stormy
scene during which Sir William Bull.

the house for calling Premier AS

Speaker James Lowther said the
premier's motion was unprecedented
but was quite in order.
The premier then submitted his mo-
ton and in support of it said if the
house did not reverse the decision
reached by the committee on the am
endment of Sir Frederick Banbury,
the government would be unable to
proceed with the bill
The debate continued amid the
widest excitement

the liberal speakers and called for
