Campaign for Alliance Continues
Without Dissenting Vote

Stockholm. Jsly 6.-The campaign
for an alliance between Norway and
Sweden continues without dissenting
note Prominent politicians bf all
parties are advocating such course
on the public platforms. and in the
newspapers. The movement. howev-
er still lacks any official action.
Sven Hedin, the Swedish explorer,
and Siguid Isben. have exchanged vis-
its between Stockholm and Christian
ia, and each has found public senti-
ment agreeable to the proposed alli-
ance. The irreconcilable differences
which led to the disruption of the un-
ion between the two countries in 1905,
and which barely escaped causing
war. seem to have smoothed out to the
extent at least that both peoples desire
to unite in defensive alliance against
possible Russian aggression.
The increase in the army and navy
of Sweden, instead of exciting the
concern of Norway, is greeted there
with the utmost satisfaction, ii is
said, and Norway itself has n strong
movement underway for an increase

Tho Nationalist Situation.

Dublin. July 6.-Estimates of the
number of the Irish Nationalist Vol
unteers vary between $4,000, which is
the Dublin Castle figure compiled by
the police. and quarter Of million,
which is the estimate given in plat
form speeches. Careful inquiry shows
that there are $4,000 in Leinster which
takes the lead. about $4,000 in W.
ster, increasing rapidly $4,000 in
Munster and 25,000 in Conaught.
The difficulty of exact estimate
arises from the fact that the move
ment is not organized from the CEN
tire Forces have sprung up spontane-
ousK in ever parish, and so far are
only loosely connected with the pro-
visional central body. There has been
a complete wiping out Of all class dis
tinctions, and the rank and file in
clude every grade-farmers. laborers.
shop assistants, clerks. doctors. law
yers, and country gentlemen. There
is a very strong leaven of time-expired
soldiers-old Conaught Rangers. Dub
lin Fusiliers and Munster Fusilers,
and their experience is proving useful
i'm the drill.
The chief military commanders are
Colonel Maurice Moore, who COM
manded the Connaught Rangers in the
Boer war, and Captain White. a son
of the General White. who defended
Ladysmith. Recent accessions are Sir
Henry Grattan Bellew, a grandson OF
the great Henry Grattan, who had eX-
perience i'm the fifth Dragon Guards;
and Captain Bellingham, brother Of

The army has extremely little
equipment and almost no money. But
the material is excellent and the en-

FAMILY OF FOUR
IS SLAIN BY AN
UNKNOWN man
Tragedy Is Committed In German
Settlement of Blue Island
Near Chicago
MURDERER USES AN AXE
Husband of One of Two Women
Victims Has Been Missing
for a Year
MURDERER USES AN AXE

Chicago, July "a family of four
was wiped out by a blow from an axe
in their home in the German settle
ment of Blue Island, a suburb, last
night. The victims were Jacob Nes-
Tesla, German laborer, aged -, wife,
60, their daughter, Mrs. Martha Mans
field. aged 25 and the latter's daugh-
ter, aged two. The stiffened bodies and
the blood stained axe alone remained
To outline the story of the crime.
Whether the butchery was the work of
a maniac or person seeking revenge
was not disclosed by cursory invcs-
tigation.
Bloody finger prints on the axe han
die were photographed and a search
was instituted for William Mansfield,
husband of Martha, and for Michael
Cherewinki. The latter was compelled
to vacate the Neslesla house three
weeks ago by the landlord in order to
make room for the new tenants and it
Is said he uttered threats. Mansfield
has not been seen at Blue Island since
he left his wife.
1t was learned that Mrs. Mansfield
had been living, away from her hus-
band for some time and efforts to To-
cate him had begun. The murderer,
according to Chief OF Police Knirsch,
proceeded with great deliberation.
Each swing of the axe apparently car
ried death without even a groan To
arouse the others sleeping. Each mem
Der of the family was struck on the
head.
Neslesla slept in a front bedroom on
the first floor uf the little frame dwell
ing. In the attic the two women and
the infant had beds. Nothing was
taken from the house. The crime was
discovered by Jacob Neslesla, Jr., son
of the old couple. living in another
part of Blue Island. He said his sisters
husbands name is William Mansfield
and that he left her year ago.

RIVAL FORCES STRONG
Nationalist Volunteers Are
Lookingto America for Funds
TO Supply Them With Arms
and Equipment

London, July 6.-With every week
of suspense in the settlement of the
future government OF Ireland the
menace Of the military preparations
by the Ulster and the Home Rule VOL
unteers increases. The present ten
dency among the volunteers of the
south is to accept leadership by the
Nationalist party which John Red
mond offered them. Thus led, there
would be a clear division of Home
Rulers and anti-Home Rule men into
hostile armed camps. The very dan
gers of bitter civil war which such
a prospect presents. furnishes the best
safeguard for peace.
Correspondents of The Associated
Press at Dublin and Belfast have
written of the situation from the
Nationalist and Ulster points of view
respectively. The most interesting
development is the plan, hitherto un-
Sir Edward Carson for taking charge
of affairs by force if a provisional
government is set up, and the fact
that the commercial men OF Belfast
have used their influence i'm Ulster
councils To postpone radical action un-
til Home Rule parliament has been
established in Dublin. The great
question which confronts the Nation
alist Volunteers is how far their Am
erican sympathizers are likely to come
forward with funds for their arms ana

MAN SHOT BY
BUTTE MAYOR
DIES OF WOUND
Eric LanteIa, the Victim, Asserted
He Was Attacked First

Butte, Mont, July 6.-Eric Lantela,
the Finnish miner who stabbed Mayor
Louis j. Duncan last Friday as the
result, it is general believed, of the
city executives refusal to deport
Frank Aaltonen, correspondent of a
Michigan Finnish newspaper uphold
ing the policy of the Western Fedora
tion of Miners, and who was shot by
the mayor, the afIray taking place in
the latter's Office, died late yesterday.
Lantela refused To make any state
ment to the county attorney i'm regard
to the affair, although To others he as
serted that the mayor shot him before
he stabbed the mayor. THE mayor
shot me first" he affirmed from a hos
pital bed.
why did you go to see the mayor"
he was asked.
II asked him To talk at a picnic my
countrymen held. The mayor did not
understand me, and when l started to
repeat the question he shot me-"
Lantela said he thereupon drew his
knife and stabbed the mayor"
The version heretofore given of the
affair, and which version is generally
credited, is that Lantcla demanded
the expulsion from Butte of Frank
Aaltonen, in accordance with reso-
luton adopted by a meeting of Fin
nlsh miners, and that the proposal was
rejected by the mayor. When the
mayor told Landtela he could not act,
it was stated. the miner started the
attack.

LIGHT Vote CAST
IN ELECTION IN
MEXICO SUNDAY
Only Small Number, Estimated at
Two Per Cent, Participate
in Poll
RESULTS NOT YET KNOWN
Much Surmise as to Whether Die
tator Will Declare Result
Valid If Defeated
RESULTS NOT YET KNOWN

Washington, July 6-Washington
government officials and others inter
ested in the Mexican situation await
ed anxiously today for details OF the
election held yesterday in which it was
sought to choose successor to Gen
eral Hucrta.
The returns of the election were not
certained from official quarters, how
ever. that only two per cent of the
population had voted in the states con-
trollcd by the government.
The fact that few votes were cast
caused no surprise, either in official
quarters or among the agents of the
Mexican Constitutionalists in Wash
ington, because il was generally known
that only a few citizens i'm the vicinity
of Mexico City would vote. The ques-
tion now raised in the minds OF OBJ
servers of conditions is whether Gen
eral IIuerta would declare the election
valid, should some one have been
chosen to succeed him.
While an early report from Mexico
City said it was believed General
Huerta had been the favorite in the
voting for the presidency, the general
belief prevailing here was that Huerta
had not been a candidate and ii was
the intention in the election to choose
Pedro Lascurain as president. Mr..
Lascurain was minister. of foreign af-
fairs when President Madero and Vice
President Suarez were Killed and was
the constitutional successor to the
presidency.
Wilson Makes No Comment.
Washington. July 6.-When the pres
dent was asked today To comment on
yesterdays election in Mexico he
laughed and said:
Il hardly think any comment from
me is necessary"

Il am afraid I'm not i'm his conf
dence."
