End of the Notorious English Slayer of Infants In Newgate Prison. LONDON, June ll.—--Mrs. .Annie Dyer, ‘- the baby farmer. of Reading, who was ”ar- rested with her son-in-law,‘ Arthur E. Palmer, on April 9 on the charge of mur- dering a number of infants intrusted to her care. was hanged in Newgate prison at 9 a. m. The woman was completely dazed when she was led to the scafiold and had to be supported by female attend- ants, who have had her in charge since she was sentenced to die. ‘ _ 3 Mrs. Dyer was one of the most extraor- dinary criminals of the age. A consefva- tive estimate places the number of . chil- dren strangled or drowned by her at 40, but others place it as high as 100. She o ,:z<l/y\\\ I _|.‘ .1’}: “570/2 é t%¢%/i\“\hh'llIlI’Illl'IP'! "‘ . .‘-‘\\\l‘ / ' ‘v ,:‘—\ -\ . if." “ MRS. DYER. Iand her son-in-law had a great reputation for piety in Reading. where they lived, although she had been arrested upon four previous occasions. She was the habit of inserting advertisements i the news- papers offering to adopt a child for a cer- tain sum of money, and ansWers were re- ceived in large numbers from persons in nearly all classes of society. In all cases she insisted upon being paid down a lump sum varying from $50 to $500. and she also made considerable money by pawning or selling the wardrobes with which nearly all the infants were furnished. Late in April Mrs. Dyer made a written confes- sion, admitting the murders of which she was accused, and it was proposed to intro-,- duce the plea of insanity in her defense. She was examined later by a physician employed by the home office and was de- clared sane. On May 21 she was indicted "for murder and on the following day was sentenced to death. While in prison she made several attempts to commit suicide. FAIRBANK WAS PINOHED. His Lawyer Accused Belasco and Mrs. Carter of Collusion. NEW YORK, June 11.—The defense opened its case when the trial of the suit brought by David Belasco, playwright, against N. K. Fairbank, the Chicago pork packer, to recover $65,000 for services ren- dered in training Mrs. Leslie Carter for the stage, was resumed before Justice Giegerich. Horace E. Deming, counsel for Fairbank, in addressing the jury outlined what he prOpcsed to prove by way of re- futing the plaintiff’s allegations. “You, gentlemen of the jury, are to de- cide what Mr. Belasco’s services are worth,” said Mr. Deming—“that is, it you think we employed him. Our defense is that we deny flatly that we employed him. We deny that his services were worth what he alleges. We claim that we advanced $51,000 toward the enterprise in which Mr. Belasco alleges to have been on- gaged.” Mr. Deming then turned his attention to Mrs. Leslie Carter’s standing in the » case. He said: “There is a peculiar fea- ture in this suit, and that is that Mrs. Car- ter. one of the defendants in the suit, is note real defendant, but a coplaintifi with Belasco. This action is a collusion between Belasco and Mrs. Carter to get. $65,000 more out ct this defendant. Mrs. Carter is in collusion with Belasco and expects to get part of the money. She fur- nished the other side with all the little cards and notes she received. She will convince you that this action is a confi- dence game. It is the old story, the old confidence game. Some of us can be fool'- ‘ed all the time; any of us some of the time. We got our finger in the crack, and they pinched it. ” Mr. Deming next explained Mr. Fair- bank’s meeting with Mrs. Carter. He ex- plained that the late Wirt Dexter of Chi- cago was Mrs. Carter’s counsel in her di- vorce suit. Mr. Dexter and Mr. F air-bank were friends, and in their familiar inter- course Mrs. Carter’s aflairs were discussed, and Mr. Fairbank agreed to help Mrs. Carter. “These two old men—for Mr. Fair- bank is 67 years of age—could honorably aid Mrs. Carter and did aid her. Such men could do things that young men could not. Mrs. Carter was anxious to go on the stage. Mr. Fairbank came to New York and saw E. G. Gilmore and asked him to look Mrs. Carter over.” ' Mr. Deming then told the jury how Be- ' lasco was sent for and examined Mrs. Car- ter and formed a favorable Opinion other. New York Announcement.

McKinleyfsManager Begins His Work In the Convention City. THE BIG. HALL DEDICATED. Senator Thurston Says-pile Money Plank lVill Be Satisfactory to All but the Six Silvcr' States—Caring For the folored _Delegates. ST. LOUIS, June 11.—With the arrival of Mark Hanna and a party of his lieuten- ants, the dedication of the convention hall and the assembling at noon 0! the nation- al committee for the purpose of adjudicate ing the contests and preparing the tempo: rary roll, the preliminaries of the national Republican convention may be regarded as having been begun in earnest.‘ The McKinley headquartershat the Southern at once became the busy portion of the hotel. Mr. Hanna said that he had not been long enough in St. Louis to make any state- ment; but, he said, the reports received indicated that the friends of Major .Mc- Kinley had not in the least overestimated his popularity. The Hon. W. A. Hahn, who accompanied Mr. Hanna, said that assurances had been received from friends of other candidates that little or no con- test would be made. Mr. Hahn was asked what the financial plank of the platform would be and said it would be such as every Republican could stand upon it who wanted the national, credit sustained. ’The decorations cf the McKinley head- quarters are being made, and they will be of quite an elaborate character. The na- tional committee of the Republican party is hard at work deciding, tentatively at least. upon the various contests for seats in the convention and expects to go very Mcugpjy into the merits of all the cases presented. ‘ “- The Hall Dedicated. The convention auditorium was dedi- cated in the evening in the presence of a nctable gathering of prominent men. A programme consisting of instrumental and vocal music, interspersed with ad- dresses, was provided, and the dedication committee had telephone connections with many leading cities of the‘east. A test of the acoustic properties of the vest hall was made today, and it showed that an ordi- nary speaker can be heard plainly in all parts of the auditorium. Nicholas M. Bell, who has acted as read- ing secretary at nearly every Democratic national convention except the last since 1876, spoke from different parts of the hall and declared: “The acoustic proper- ties of this hall could not be better. Now, it is what we call a ‘dead hall’—that is. its emptiness creates an acoustic effect different from that exercised by an audi- torium filled with people. The moisture breathed and exhaled by several thousand persons iiquefies the atmosphere to a sufllcient extent to aocenuate the sound waves as well as to accelerate and render them more resonant. ” McKinley and Hobart. Senator Thurston, member of the na- tional Republican committee from Ne- braska and delegate to the convention, was among the early arrivals. He appear- ed at the breakfast table wearing the first contini: ation presidential and vice presi- dential badge which has been displayed by any of the Republican leaders. It bore the faces of McKinley and Hobart of New J er- sey. “It is pretty well understood,” said the senator, “that I am for McKinley for first place. With his nomination assured as it is,” the senator continued, “we want an eastern man as his running mate, and I believe Hobart to be the available man. He meets the requirements of the'situation in all respects. We want to keep New Jersey in the Republican ranks now that we have it there. Furthermore, Hobart is strong in New York, where he is personal- ly well known and much esteemed.” Asked what course he thought would be adopted by the convention upon the finan- cial question, Senator Thurston replied that he believed the Indiana declaration upon that subject would form the model upon which the money declaration would be based. The hIoney Declaration. “It is,” he said, “brief and explicit and very skillfully avoids reference by terms to any of the mooted questions. It is un- mistakably a sound money utterance. At the same time it avoids all mention of the gold standard, reference to which by name would drive votes away from the ticket in some of the states. It is better than the Ohio platform,whioh, while when analyzed is just as clearly for sound money, makes too prominent by name the silver ques tion. The Indiana form of expression will be more acceptable in the east than would that of the Ohio Republicans." The senator expressed the opinion that the Indiana platform would be satisfactory to all the Western states except the five sil- ver producing states—Colorado, Utah, Montana, Idaho and Nevada—and possi- bly Wyoming, but he said that as they have all told only 19 votes in the electoral college the party could afford to lose them. Mr. Thurston said in reply to a ques- tion . that he had no doubt that some of the delegatesfrom the eastern seaboard would make strong contention for a. more pronounced and explicit declaration for gold, but that'it Would not be Wise to con- cede their extreme demands. “They will in the end be satisfied with a conservative pronouncement,” he said, “and they will be glad enough to take‘it in preference to the unequivocal free‘ silver declaration the Chicago convention will give out.” Referring to other questions of which the platform will treat, the senator said he thought first place would be given to the tariff, as that is and has been a dis- tinctive issue of the Republican party. He thought there would be a declaration demanding in strong terms a distinctively American policy, but he was of the opin- ion that the A. P. A. question would not figure in the convention. The Colored Delegates. From present indications it may become necessary for the Business Men’s league to hire a hall in which to lodge the negro delegates who neglected to engage rooms in advance. All the hotels are full save one, and the colbred men who have viewed the quarters provided for them in that building are disposed to kick because there. is not hot and cold water running in every room. Some arrangements satisfactory under-the circumstances will he made, however, to care for the late comers among the negroes. They will be fed and lodged, even though it becomes .neccssary to lease a. building for them. .
