Opinion That It Will Huston Cuba’s Liberation-——Queen Regent Orders Military Honors For Dead Premier. Madrid, Aug. 11.—'I‘he fever of excite- ment over the assassination of Premier Canovas del Castillo is still far from abating. TheVSpanish government has learned that the anarchistic plot resulting in Senor Canovas’ death also contemplates, or did contemplate, the killing of Senor Sagasta before the close of August. Thé“ government is aware that a meet— ing of anarchists was held in Spain early in July and that plans were laid and lots drawn for the killing. It was decided at the meeting that Senor Canovas should die before Aug. 16 and Senor Sagasta before Aug. 30. That lots were drawn to determine which cf the anarchists should be the murderer of Senor Canovas is deduced . ._ ..._..__...____._____“___-___- ’ *2.

It is not known whether the plan to kill Senor 'Sagasta Will now be attempt- ed, in view of the prompt arrest of Golli. Golli is 26 years old, of medium height, wears a full beard and specta- cles and is a native of Boggia, near Na- ples. . For a time he lived in Barcelona. where he participated in the workings of the anarchistic bodies of that city. He went to France and Belgium and returned to Spain early in July. It was at this time that the plans for Senor Canovas’ death were perfected, and it is believed that there the murder was assigned to Golli. The Probable Effect. London, Aug. 11.——The discussion of what is to be the aftermath of the as- sassination of Premier Canovas del in but one channel of opinion, and that is that Cuba’s freedom is at hand. The press of Great Britain and of the entire European continent is pro— nounced in its belief that the outlook for the island is brighter than ever be- fore. Leaders in the principal newspapers proclaim that it is only a. matter of time when Cuba will slip from Spain’s grasp now that Canovas is gone. The one great fear of the Cubans and their sympathizers in this country is that some one of the great European powers will proffer its assistance to Spain in this dark hour. The power most feared in this regard is Germany. It is almost a proverb that anything may be expected of erratic William, the war lord, and he may interfere to hold Cuba to Spain as a mere matter of personal amusement. But the apprehension of the Cubans as to Germany’s action is not shared in other quaNers. It is believed here that the time has come for the United States to effect a remarkable stroke of diplomacy. There is no overlookingthe factthat the bright side of things is appearing for Cuba. A hasty move on the part of any sympathizing nation might result fatally for the island, whereas time and diplomacy will, it is thought, mean Cu- ba’s freedom. Military Honors For Canovas. Madrid, Aug. 11.-—The queen regent' has decreed that the military honors observed in the case of the funeral of a marshal shall be accorded to the body of the late premier, Canovas del Cas- tillo, who was shot and killed at Santa Agueda on Sunday by the anarchist known as Michelo Angino Golli. body will arrive here tomorrow morn- ing, accompanied by the widow,- the minister for the colonies, Senor Cos Gayon, and the chief mayordomo, the Duke of Sotomayor, representing the queen regent. The pallbearers will be an academician, an admiral; the presi— dent of the senate, a knight of the Golden Fleece and Marshal Martinez de Mp0s The Interment will take place in the Pantheon. Funeral serv- ices will take place simultaneously in all.the churches throughout the coun- try, and the oficlal mourning will last three days. The queen regent is great- ly affected by the tragedy and is still confined to her room. Movement Against Anarchists. Berlin, Aug. 11.——The kaiser and the czar have decided, after much discus- sion of the assassination of Canovas, to "take drastic measures with reference to all anarchists and nihilists in their do- mains. It‘ has long been the cherished plan of the German emperor to com- mence a system of examination, by vio- lent means if necessary, of all persons suspected of anarchistic or nihilistic , tendencies. Emperor William recently explained the matter to‘theczar, and the latter at once concurred. A close‘watch is being kept on sus- pects, and the extermination of the an- archist in Europe is to be attempted in forceful earnest. Anarchists Under Surveillance. Paris, Aug. 11,—The police are keep- ing close scrutiny of the anarchists of this city, and it is thought that. several ariests will be made soOD.~-’ The ' 3 ' JAIL BREAKERS romp. . Desperadoes' Get Bullets at Charlestm Instead of Liberty. ’ Boston, Aug. 11.—While attempting to escape from the state prison at Charlestown today Herbert Willis, the young Taunton desperado who was re- cently sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder of Fred N. Strange, was fatally injured, and his brother Ev- erett, who assisted him in his break for liberty, was seriously wounded by the guards. Two of the latter were wound- ed by the Willis brothers, who tried to shoot their way out. Everett Willis was removed to the Massachusetts General hodbital, where - it was found that he had been shot in the head and neck. Herbert Willis, the murderer, who is in the prison hospital, was shot twice in the head. The two guards who were hurt were Turnkey F. F. Darling, who was shot in the thigh and cut about the head,» and Yard Officer Abbott, who was also injured about the head by blows thought to have been delivered with the revolvers in the hands of the desperadoes. Everett Willis arrived at the prison this forenoon to pay a monthly visit to his brother. He was admitted by the usual officials, and Willis, the murder- er, was escorted to the guardroom to meet his relative. At the time Officer Edward Whitham and Turnkey Dar- ling were in the rotunda With Yard Officer Abbott, Officer Townsend and others nearby. Five other visitors were in the rotunda at the time, a man, two women and two children. The brothers Willis had been conversing in a low tone, sitting apart from the others in the guardroom for about half an hour, when Ofl‘icer Whitham saw the visitor pass a revolver to his brother, and together they sprang toward Turnkey Darling, their inten~ tion evidently being to secure the keys. Witham rushed to Darling’s assist- ance, and as he did so the Willis broth- ers opened fire. One of the bullets struck Darling in the thigh. Seeing the desperate nature of the affair, Witham returned the shots, but missed, and Offi— cer Abbott, who came through the door into the guardroom at the same instant, grappled with Everett Willis. Both brothers, who had been beating Dar- ling, began to pound Abbott. Ofl'icer Townsend from the office door then fired a shot, which penetrated the neck of Willis, and a second later, Officer Benjamin, who was on duty in'one of the wings, fired a shot through the bars, wounding Willis in. the head. Meanwhile Herbert Willis had been jumping around in lively fashion, firing repeated shots from his revolver, to which the officials responded, using great care not to hit the other visitors. A shot from the revolver of Oflicer Witham took effect in the head, while one from Darling’s found lodgment in the back of the head. The murderer and his brother were then secured.
