TO DEDICATE CAMPAN|lE
FAMOUS BELL TOWER TO BE
COMPLETED APRIL Is.
King and Queen and Officials Of
Nearly Every City viii Attend
Rebuilt by Contributions.

Rome, ltaly.-April rs, 1912, has
just been fixed upon as the date for
the formal dedication Of the new Cam
panile, or bell tower, of the cathedral
of st. Marks at Venice. Plans are al
ready under way to make the cere.
mony n of worldwide interest.
Perhaps no other object in the
world is so we'll known to travellers
from every portion of the globe as
the famous bell tower of St. Marks.
All of the states of Italy also con
tributed. The work of rebuilding it
has progressed steadily for the last
ten years, until it is now certain it
will be fully completed by the date
set for the dedication.
The full details for the ceremony
have not been completed. Venice,
however, has already appropriated
100000 lire for the ceremony, and it
is certain that it will be carried out
on as an elaborate scale as it could
have been done by the Doges of old
who built it. The ceremony probably
will take place at 10 o'clock in the
morning, and the king and queen will
be present, as well as the officials of
nearly every city and province of
Italy, to say nothing of delegations,
both official and private, from scores
of foreign nations and states.

FOUR DEAD, FIVE
Ill FROM POISON
PHILADELPHIA LANDLADY, HER.
SELF A VICTIM, BELIEVED TO
HAVE PLANNED DEATHS.
GRIEvED FOR HUSBAND
Woman Fut Cyanide in Tea to Kill
Herself and Household at Table,
Is Theory-Quarrei With
nusband.

Philadelphia, Pa.-With no certain
clews to guide them, the police are
mystified by the sudden death of four
persons in Mrs. Bridget Flanagan's
boarding house at No. 1923 North
Twenty-fourth street, and the danger
GUS illness of five others. Every one
in the place was stricken and the au
.horities are eagerly awaiting an au-
topsy for an idea of what caused the
deaths.
Joseph Flanagan, husband OF the
woman, has been missing two weeks,
and the only theory was that his wife,
respondent over his absence at the
holiday season, decided to end her life
and those of all the others in the
home, and so added cyanide Of potas-
stun in their food.
The dead are: Mrs. Bridget Flana-
gan, 81 years old; Annie Flanagan,
10 years old; Joseph Flanagan, IS
months old; Catherine Murray, IL
years old.
Mrs. Curran, who is a sister of Mrs.
Flanagan, is dying in the Homeopath-
ic hospital, and as she is suffering
from pneumonia the physicians can
not tell whether she has been poi
soned.
Quarrels between Mr.. and Mrs.
Flanagan led to the mans disappear
ance, the police have learned. Flana-
gan had been employed at the Bold
win locomotive works here for TWEEN
ty-fve years, and two weeks ago he
went home and informed his wife he
had been discharged. She could not
understand 1t, as he had stuck to the
company through many labor troubles
and had been told that in case of a
reduction in the force he would be
one of the last men to be released.
Mrs. Flanagan, skeptical, went to
The plant and learned her husband
had not been discharged. He never
returned home after that.
Mrs. Flanagan grew respondent,
anu DIT uluAeE NdS especially So, DuL
her family and the boarders thought
nothing of it, nor did the survivors,
who were taken i'll after leaving the
table, think seriously of the matter
lntil morning, when Mrs. Flanagan
failed to appear for breakfast.
After waiting more than an hour
after the usual breakfast time, Miss
Marguerite Curran went to the Flana-
gam apartment and knocked on the
door, Getting no response, she en-
tered.
Sitting in q rocking chair was Mrs.
Flanagan. She had been dead for
hours, and on the bed were the bodies
of two Flanagan children and the
Murray girl, who boarded at tho
house. They also had been dead for
hours, and their features showed no
evidence of a painful death.

HEAD, OPPOSED TO HURRIED
REVISION OF SHERMAN ACT.

nopoly-states Gould Bar
Objectionable Concerns.

Washington, d. C.-The interstate
commerce committee Of the senate
resumed its hearing on the trust prob
lem, after a holiday recess. s. P.
Bush, OF Columbus, o., was a witness
before the committee.
Edgar H. Farrar, of New Orleans,
La, president of the American Bar
association, told the committee that
monopoly and restraint of trade were
brought about by holding companies,
by consolidation of corporations and
by mutual agreements of directorates
Of corporations engaged in the same
line of business.
They all can be reached by the
Sherman antitrust law" he said.
Farrar said the question of amend
ing the Sherman law was 10 colossal
that it should be undertaken only
after q most careful study.
He contended that every state
could bar any corporation that might
be injurious to its welfare, and that
congress could prohibit a state cor
poration from entering into interstate
commerce.
Louis C. Krauthoff, of New York,
also appeared before the committee.
He contended that a corporation
should not be held criminal because
it held monopolistic powers without
exercising them. Unless public pol
icy was affected, he declared, neither
congress nor the courts had any right
to interfere with the corporations.
