Vlaltlng Delegations.
Berlin, April 14.—Tile latest news
from Stockholm Is far from reassur
ing. The sltution in Norway does not
Improve. A royal commission of eight
members of the diet Is Bitting secretly
and trying to devise means at up
holding King Oscar in ills refusal to
yield to the Norwegian majority. The
commission was convoked under a
special constitutional article whrh.
was framed to meet only the gravest
political crisis. It has not been In ses
sion before since the Crimean -iris's.
The members are now said to have ad
vised the government to mobilize ibe
fleet at once and prepare to mobollze
the army.
The wounding of Lebrecht von
Kotze in a duel yesterday has caused
a great stir in what Is left here of
Berlin soeicty. Countless cards were
left at his house yesterday by influen
tial persons who wished to make :i si
lent protest against the court Intrigue
to ruin -him. The Princess of Saxe-
Melnlngen, the emperor’s sister, tele
graphed an Inquiry to Frau von Kotze,
and the emperor sent his : djurint,
■Major vnd Moltke. to the wounded
man’s bedside last evening. It will be
about two weeks before Kotze can
leave his bed and he may be a cripple
for life. Freiherr von Relsonach, the
Empress Frederick's court marshal,
was the challenger. It transpired to
day, and he Insisted upon severe con
ditions, one of them that shots should
be exchanged until he or Kotze should
be wounded too severely to continue
the duel. Kotze fell In the »'ghth ex
change. After Moltke had called,
Relseharh and the Prince of Fuersten-
berg visited Kotze and there was a
general reconciliation. Henry Reuse,
a member of the Union Club, has of
fered to withdraw from the etucl al-
reaely arranged between him and
Kotze.
All oxe-ept the conservative newspa
pers conelemn the principals in the
Kotzo challenge and duel. The meet
ing yesterday, they gay, was the worst
possible example to the masses. The
Vorwaerts, Social-Democratic, sheers
at ’’these champions of law, order and
religion, who fight a duel between
Good Friday and Easter."
The Vosslsche Zeltung ways: "While
the antl-sociallst bill Is demanded to
keep order among the people hardly a
■week passes without open violations of
the law by persons of the upper classes.
In this case we nee a high court dig
nitary who, after being wronged and
Insulted, is forced to fight until dis
abled.
Queen Victoria will arrive In Darms
tadt on April 24. The gathering at the
Hessian court -will Include Emperor
•William, the Bmpreds Frederick, the
Duke and Duehesse at Saxe Coburg-
Ooth. the Prince and Prlncew of
Saxe MelnlDgen. the -Prince and Prin
cess of Hohonlohe-Ijangienburg. It Is
understood that most of tho Hessian
family will be preaent at the special
request of the queen, who did not even
excuse the Princess of Rattenhurg,
widow of Prince Alexander of Hesse,
despite the fact that this lady Is very
unpopular at the Berlin court. The
queen wishes her visit in Darmstadt
to tie as quiet as possible. There will be
only one state reception and ono court
concert while She Is there.
The death of Freiherr von Molffgrain,
noting minister of Llppe Detmold. has
delayed the decision of the conflict

The Llppe diet is divided on the ques
tion of Prince Adolf's regency and the
state lawyers are ehaully at odds,
some favoring Prince Adolf and others

voters from all parts of the empire will

In his frequent visits at Friedrichs-

aa ever, an esger talker, full of ideas.
He Is fond of a receptive listener. He
does not require any encouragement to
speak—"no Jogging of the bell" such

JAME8 W. SCOlT DEAD.
Chicago’s Foremost Jourrmlfst a Victim
of Apoplexy.
New York, April 11—James W. Scott,
proprietor and editor of Chicago T*mea-
Herold, died suddenly of apoplexy In hia
room In the Holland houSe, Thirteenth
street and Fifth avenue, at 2:30 o’clock
this afternoon. Hia death was aa peace*
ful as tt was unexpected.
Mr. Scott arrived In this city from Chi
cago last Friday evening. - He was ac
companied by Mis. fioott and their niece*
Mlsa Grace Hatch.
Mr. Scott was tHen apparently in the
p*.9k of heaMh. It was his intention to
sp?nd a few day* In New York and then
proceed to Cape May and afterward to
Virginia Beach. From there the Scotts
.ntended to return to Chicago. The trip
was intended purely for i t ecroation.
Mr. and Mrs. Bcott spent Saturday very
quietly, ar it was too rainy to drive out.
He was in his usual health when he re
tired on Saturday night and he did not
complain of illness until after breakfast
this morning. This was at 10 o’clock.
Then he suffered considerable pain In the
abdomen and Dr. J. A. Irwin was cal lea
In. The doctor hound that Mr. Scott wa«
offlloted with renal oahculaa or stone In
the kidney. The substance passed from
the kidneys to the bladder and this
caused Mr. Scott Intense pain.
IDs sufferings threw him into a ner
vous state and he was obliged to go to
bed. No serious result, however, was an-
tlpatsd and Dr. Irwin thought that with
a few days’ rest and treatment Mr. Soott
would come out all right. The pain
ceased at noon and Mr. Scott felt so much
better that he asked the doctor If he
'might not take a drive in the afternoon.
The doctor said it would not bo wise to
tax h!s strength and Mr. Scott lay back
on the pillows with a sigh of resigna
tion.
He sank apparently into a peaceful
slumber soon afterward, but at 1:45 Mrs.
Scow, who was alarmed by his stento-
rous breathing, hastily summoned Dr. Ir
win, who had left the hotely hardly an
hour before. The doctor, after a brief
examination, said Mr. Scott had Buffered
an attack of apoplexy and was In a se-
rtous condition. It was 2:10 when Dr. Cook
reached the hotel and twenty minuses
later Mr. Scott passed peacefully away
without regaining consciousness. Tho
remains will be taken to Chicago tomor
row afternoon. Mrs Scott and her niece
will accompany them on the train.
Mr Scott was the son of a printer and
Jewmiist and passed hia life in the came
vocations. He became publisher of the
Chicago Herald when It was founded nnd
so continued up to the time of his death.
He had a con-trolUng interest in tho Chi
cago Times-Herald and the Chicago Ev
ening Post. He was a member of a num
ber of the leading clubs of Chicago. He
served four years consecutively as presi
dent of the Press Club, was for six years
president of the United Press, was four
time* elected president of the American
Newspaper Publishers’ Association and
was president of the Fellowship Club nt
the time of his death. He was also a
member of the Clover Clirb of Philadel
phia and the New York Press Club.-
Mr. Scott was one of the original pro
moters of the World’s Columbia Exposi
tion. of which he afterward became a <11-
reetor, a momber of the executive com
mittee and chairman of the committee
on printing. He was offered the presi
dency of the looal hoard of directors but
declined on account of the pressure of his
private business.

No Charges Made Against Him—The
Second Victim Talked to About
Che Murder of the First.
■San Francisco, Cal., April 14.—An
other horrible discovery was made this
morning in a small loom In tho
ateeplc of Emanuel Baptist church,
where the mutilated remtlns of youug
Minnie Williams were found yesterday.
The church had been desecrated by a
second murder, the victim being «n-
oher young girl, Blanche Larnont. who
had been mlsxtng since the 3d Instant.
She had been strangled to death, her
clothes had been toru from her person
and the body was almost nude when
found. Her shoes and stocking* were
miming. The imprint of the assassin’s
finger nails were plainly visible on the
murdered girl's throat, but there were
no Indications of further violence.
Shortly after the awful discovery
wo* made Dr. George Gibson, pastor
of the church, was taken Into custody
by the police. No charge was placed
against him, but he will be held until
the mystery Is fully cleared.
‘Miss Lamont was wen alive In tbe
company of Theodore Durant, a
young medical student and assistant
superintendent of the Sunday school
connected with the defiled place of
worship. Durant, who Is said to have
been engaged to be married to Miss
Lamont. Is suspected of having taken
the life of the Williams girl, who is
known to have be -n a warm friend of
MUs Lamont. They were members of
'.he church, which they frequently at
tended together, and were also in the
same Sunday school clsss.
Since the disappearance of Blanche,
MUs 03111110111* often nil that she
knew that her companion had met
with foul play. This startling state
ment reached the ears of several mem
bers of the church and the girl was
asked for an explanation, but Rhe posi
tively declined to reveal the nature of
her Information and the matter was
dropped. Tbe police are now Inclined
to think that Durant, knowing that
Miss Williams was In possession of
sufficient evidence to prove his guilt
In connection with the disappearance
of Mtm Lamont, decoyed *>“c Into the
chi-rch and silenced her forever. The
police argue that Durant had heard
the statement of the Williams girl and
momentarily feared exposure. Aa she
continued to declare that her friend
was murdered, Durant oonoluded to kill
her.
Oue of the most damaging witnesses
to the young medico! student Is
Charles Hills, who resides across the
street from Emanuel Baptist church.
Shortly after * o’clock Friday night
he saw * man and woman standing
near the street corner. They ohatted
together for some time and nnally
started up the street toward the
church. When the church was reached
the man caught tbe gtrl by the arm
and half dragged her to the gate lead
