ANARCHIST BULLET LAYS SPAIN’S
PRIME MINISTER LOYV.
MURDERER ARRESTED AT ONCE.
Th© Greatest Excitement and Indignation
Prevails Among All Classes In Spuiu
Over the Untimely Tragedy.
Senor Canovas del Castillo, the
prime minister of Spain, was assassin¬
ated Sunday at Santa Agueda by an
anarchist. The murderer fired three
shots, two of which struck the premier
in the head and the other in the chest.
The wounded man lingered uncon¬
scious for two hours aud died at 3
-o’clock Sunday afternoon. His wife
was but a short distance off when he
fell.
Santa Agueda is noted for its baths.
The place is between San Sebastian,
the summer residence of the Spanish
court, and Yittoria, the capital of the
province of Alava, about thirty miles
south of Bilboa. The premier went
there last Thursday to take a three
weeks’ course of the baths, after which
he expected to return to San Sebas¬
tian to meet United States minister
Woodford when that gentleman should
be officially received by the queen re¬
gent,
The assassin was immediately arrest¬
ed. He is a Neapolitan and gives the
name of Rinaldo, but it is believed
that this is an assumed name and that
his real name is Michele Angino Golli.
At a special meeting of the cabinet,
under tho presidency of Senor Cos-
Gayon, minister of the interior, the
latter announced that he has been en¬
trusted by the queen regent with the
premiership ad interim.
The Murderer Talks.
The murderer declares that lie killed
Senor Canovas “in accomplishment of
a just vengeance,” and that the deed
is the outcome of a vast anarchist con¬
spiracy. He is believed to have ar¬
rived at Santa Agueda the same day as
the premier. He was frequently seen
lurking in the passages of the bathing
establishment in a suspicious manner.
Martinez Campos has gone to San
Sebastian to attend the queen regent.
Senor Sagasta, the liberal leader, has
sent the following telegram to the
government:
“I have heard with deep pain of the crime
that has thrown us all iato mourning, and
I place myself at the orders of the govern¬
ment and of the queen.”
Most of the liberal leaders have
•sent similar messages, placing them¬
selves at the disposal of the govern¬
ment.
The greatest excitement and indig¬
nation prevails among all classes. All
the members of the diplomatic corps
have expressed their sympathy with
the government. Many senators, dep¬
uties and generals, while expressing
their grief and indignation, have
offered to render to the government all
the assistance in their power.
It was at first rumored that the as¬
sassin was one of the pardoned Barce¬
lona anarchists, Int this is not con¬
firmed.
News Received at. Washington*
Secretary of State Sherman received
the first news of the affair through the
Associated Press bulletin, He ex-
pressed deep interest in the details.
He said:
“This deplorable event will have
some effect, of course, on the present
affairs of Spain, but to what extent I
cannot say. The death of one man is
not necessarily going to change the
sentiment of the whole country. Spain
is a very tenacious country. Her
money is gone. Her resources have
been exhausted. But she means, evi¬
dently, to hold Cuba. Just how she
can do it under these circumstances, I
cannot see. Yet she is opposed to
yielding a point.
“Premier Canovas was a strong par¬
tisan. He was the chief exponent of
the element which was determined to
keep the island at all hazards, and,
seemingly, Spain is almost a unit on
this. Conovas a strong factor in the
government of Spain, but it is not im¬
possible that another will be found to
replace him in that important office
having similar views and the Bame
pronounced ideas.
M’KINLEY ATTENDS CHURCH.
President Refused to Discuss the Assas¬
sination of Canovas.
A dispatch from Hotel Champlain,
N.Y., states that the presidential party
spent the greater part of the day Sun¬
day quietly at the hotel.
In the morning the president, vice
president and Mrs. Hobart, Secretary
and Mrs. Alger and Mr. and Mrs.
Whitelaw Reid attended services in
the First Presbyterian church, Rev.
Dr. Reed, formerly pastor of Secretary
aud Mrs. Alger in Detroit,officiated.
When informed of the assassination
of the prime minister of Spain, the
president was horrified, but refused to
make any comments.
VIRGINIA MINERS WILL QUIT.
Recruits Ready to Join the Ranks of the
Strikers.
After the meeting at Tyrconnell,
West Virginia, Saturday night the
Strike agitators organized a miners’
union, and it is claimed that nearly all
the Tyrconnell miners signed the list.
Organizer Rea said shortly after
midnight that every man in tho Flem-
ington section would be out Sunday.
The general talk indicates that he is
right.
THIS STRIKE IS SET 1 LED.
Operatives of Cotton Mills at Atlanta,
Ga., Return to Work.
The strike at the Fulton bag and
cotton mills in Atlanta was declared
off Saturday and the trouble ended
amicably. made late in the
The settlement was
afternoon, when, without signing any
agreement, President Elsas promised
to remove all negroes in direct contact
with white labor and to hold none of
the operatives responsible for the
present condition.
Saturday night the strikers met and
the ball of the labor union was filled
with a larger crowd than had pre¬
viously gathered there. The report of
tho committee was given, and the
agreement made between President
Elsas and the committee sustained.
The prompt settlement of the trouble
was a great surprise to many of the
workers. They had prepared to re¬
main out several weeks, and after the
refusal of the authorities of the factory
to sign any agreement, many thought
that an adjustment of an amicable
nature would never come.
President Elsas agreed to let his or¬
der removing all the negro women
stand; he agreed to transfer the colored
men who for a number of years have
been stationed in several of the depart¬
ments, and promised to removed none
of the strikers.
SIMONTON \S DECISION.
The Judge Gives Definition of an “Orig-
Inal Package.”
In the United States circuit court at
Charleston, Saturday, Judge Simon-
ton filed his decision as to what consti-
tutea an original package. After re-
citing the cause of action and some
authorities the judge says:
“It appears that an original pack-
age is the package delivered by the
importer to the carrier at the initial
place of shipment in the exact condi-
tion in which it was shipped. If in
single bottles shipped singly, or in
packages of three or more, securely
fastened together and marked, or if in
a box, barrel or crate or other recep-
tacle, the single bottle in the one in-
stance, the three or more bottles in
another instance, the barrel,
crate or other receptacle, respectively.
constitutes the original package, if
sold or delivered as shipped and re-
cel J®. ‘
This is . good , news to the , package ,
stores and to all who dislike the dis-
pensary law.
The package stores now have large
consignments of liquors shipped 111
half-pint and quart bottles, in paper
cartoons packed loose in cars. This
enables them to sell as the trade de-
mands 111 quantities as desired. The
state cannot long compete with this
trade, and an early closing of Palmetto
rum shops is anticipated.
QUIET, BUT DETERMINED.
Uanl:s of Strikers Ar© Iteing Daily Aug¬
mented.
Advices of Sunday from Pittsburg
state that strikers are continuing or¬
derly aud are gaining accessions to
their ranks constantly. The 150 men
employed at the Horner A Roberts
coal mine, at Elizabeth, refused to go
to work Saturday morning; about sev¬
enty-five miners at the Equitable
mines in the same locality also struck.
Both mines were paying the district
rate.
The company leased the ground
where the strikers located their
camps and ousted them, but another
field has been secured by the strikers
which the owner refused to lease to
the company and a permanent camp
will be established.
AFTER TAX COLLECTORS.
Governor Joiinston Insists That TUey Ante

Five of the sixteen county tax col-
jectors of Alabama who were notified
by Gov. Johnston a few days ago that
they must show cause why they should
not be removed from office for delin-
quency have settled up their shortages.
The collectors of Lee, Henry, Escam-
bia, Lowndes and Franklin have set-
tied up, leaving only eleven others.
The collector of Mobile, Mr. Lott, is
still $17,500 behind and the only two

COMMENT OF ENGLISH PAPERS.
The Assassination of Canovas Is Declared
an Anarchistic Plot.
A cable dispatch of Sunday from
London says: Most "of the morning
papers comment editorially on the
assassination of Canovas, the Spanish
premier. While they speak of it as
an anarchistic plot, the impression
prevails that the act will wreck the
cpieen regent’s policy both in Spanish
and Cuban affairs.
ENGLAND IS NOT YET READY TO
ADOPT BIMETALLISM.
WILL GIVE ANSWER NEXT OCTOBER.
Wily Britons Want Tim© to Ponder and
Reflect Over the Proposition Pre¬
sented By Our Commission.
The British government has inform¬
ed the American bimetallic commission
that it will probably reply to the pro¬
posals of the commissioners on behalf
of the United States in October.
The commissioners have been wait¬
ing in London since their conference
with the cabinet. Desiring to know
the exact position of England before
opening up negotiations with other
governments, they wrote Thursday to
the cabinet inquiring when they might
expect a decision, as they were anxious
to arrange their future programme.
Friday Senator Wolcott received a
reply from Sir Michael Hicks-Beach,
chancellor of the exchequer, iu the
course of which the chancellor ex¬
pressed a fear that the British govern¬
ment was not yet in a position to re-
ply to the proposals of the envoys of
the United States and the French am-
bassadors on the question of an inter-
national agreement, Sir Michael
Hicks-Beach said:
‘‘It is due both to the choice of the subject
and the manner in which it has been brought
before the English ministry by the represen-
tatives of the two countries that these pro-
posals should be very carefully examined
and considered; and this process must be
somewhat prolonged, owing to the time
necessarily occupied in communicating with
the government of India.”
The chancellor of the exchequer
adds that he cannot sav with certainty
how long these communications will
take, but be hopes the cabinet will be
rea dy to meet the envoys again early
i B October.
While this postponment of Eng-
land’s decision delays the work, the
American envoys do not consider it
discouraging. They think Great
Britain’s interest in the question
justifies them iu expecting that the In-
dian mints will be opened. Thev be-
lieve that The Times in exposing the
reopening of the Iudian mints does
not represent the government, but
rather the city financial cu-cles, which
are opposed to any change. The re-
por t made to the government from the
mint is understood to be favorable to
to silver.
The headquarters of the commission
will remain in London until October,
Senator Wolcott- may visit Austria, in
the meantime, and pave the^ way for
negotiations with tho Austrian gov-
eminent.

FOREIGN COUNTRIES ADVISED.
Text of Our Xew TarifV Bill Communicated
To Them.
The state department has sent in-
structions to the United States anibas-
sadors and ministers abroad accredited
to countries with which we have trade
relations that would be affected by the
enactment of the Dingley tariff bill,
directing them to communicate to the
foreign offices at their respective
posts the text of the act aud to call
attention to the sections of the new
tariff which provide for retaliation,
reciprocity and similar arrangements,
This is done in order that there may
be a proper basis for the institution of
negotiations looking to the consum-
uiation of some of the reciprocal agree-
meats contemplated ill the Dingley
act.

A Train Wreck Ill Which Two Are Killed
and Many Hurt.
The fast flyer on the Kansas Pacific
railway was wrecked early Tuesday
morning about forty miles east of
Denver. Two trainmen were killed
outright and a number of passengers
injured, none of them fatally. The
killed are: John Ward, engineer,
Denver, and W. B. Harringtoh, bag-

TILLMAN TALKS OF DISPENSARY.
Claim. That I.aw I. Good But It. Ad-
miniHtration Is Bail.
Senator Tillman spoke at Abbeville,
S. C., Wednesday before a large audi¬
ence. His speech lasted one hour and
twelve minutes. He was in fine trim
and made an excellent impresssion.
The crowd was generally with him.
He discussed the dispensary, the
tariff, Clemson college and his per¬
sonal record. He thought that the
dispensary was the best solution of the
liquor question and he favored state
control. He admitted that tho dis¬
pensary law had been badly managed
but blamed the management and not
the law. He said the new board of
control had done more harm to the
law than Judge Simonton had. He
said the new board should not be
elected by the legislature.
He defended the Latimer bill and
said be introduced it in tho senate
before Latimer introduced it in the
house. He said he was glad of one
thing, that Gonzales lost a whole
night’s sleep from fear of the bill
passing the house. He said that Si-
monton was more tyrannical than
Judge Bond was at his worst.
He indorsed putting Charleston un-
der control of the metropolitan police.
He disclaimed taking any sides in the
senatorial race and said that all the
candidates were his political friends.
In answer to a question he discussed
the tariff and defended McLauriu’s
position on the same. He said that
he voted for everything that McLau-
rill did in that bill.
He said that he was opposed to pro-
tection, but that if there was to bo a
steal he wanted to get the share due
to his constituency.
He said that lie was the only farmer
in the United States senate and that
be represented thirty million of farm-
ers in the country. He said that his
speeches in the senate were as popular
as they are at home; that when he rose
to speak the cloak rooms were cleared
and tbe g nder 'es filled and that he

that the loss of life would reach in the

of the eruption. On that date lava

TO GET STRIKERS DRUNK.
Will»ky and Beer Are Sent Into Tlieir
Camp By De&lg-ulntf Enemies.
Dispatches of Friday from Pitts¬
burg, Pa., state that the proposed
campaign against the mine owners of
Westmoreland county and the opera¬
tors of Central Pennsylvania, which
has been delayed, is now an assured
fact. The strike leaders decided on it
definitely at a camp will conference, and a
big movement be made in a few
days.
The whole affair will be considera¬
bly on the order of the famous Coxey
“commonweal” tour.
The plans propose a direct inarch
through the whole territory where
mines are being operated till Clear¬
field county is reached. Camps will
be left at each of the DeArmitt mines
at Cannonsburg, at Bunola and any
other place that may seem necessary to
keep the mines closed, which appears
before the crusaders. The leaders
estimate that with what will remain
behind in the camps at least 8,000 men
will be kept constantly in the move¬
ment.
A military code for the government
of the army will be formulated before
tho movement is started. President
Dolan says that with any kind of sys¬
tem he can keep everything quiet and
the men peaceable.
Efforts are being made to order beer
and whisky at Camp Determination by
outsiders. This has been going on
for two or three days,, and some of the
strikers have been taken down to East
Pittsburg and filled up on all the beer
they could drink.
The danger of this to the miners’
cause is fully realized by the labor
leaders, and a sharp lookout is being
kept to find out who is responsible for
the efforts to get the strikers intoxica¬
ted. Thursday night a barrel of
whisky was shipped to the camp from
Braddock. It had been paid for at
the other end, and all of the freight
charges had also been settled.
When the whisky was delivered
Captain McKay ordered it taken back
to Braddock as quickly as possible.
It was shipped back. The strikers
do not know who sent it.
NO TENNESSEE CONVENTION.
Th© Movement Defeated In Popular
Flection By Decisive Majority.
A Nashville dispatch says: Returns
received from various counties through¬
out the state show that the vote in the
election held Friday to determine-
whether a constitutional convention
should be held in Tennessee was very
light and that the majority against the
convention will be about three to one.
The fight has been waged for several
weeks, the friends of the movement
claiming that East Tennessee required
a revision of the constitution in order
to make it the manufacturing section
it promised. The friends of the move¬
ment found arguments for it, they
claimed, in every branch of the state
government. For instance, in the
executive department, it was argued
that the governor was restricted in
authority given other governors in tho
south; it was claimed that Tennessee-
paid entirely too much for criminal
prosecutions, by fault of the present
constitution.
It was fought mainly on the ground
that the convention would cost the
state extensively and be of little
benefit.
