For. Dead Premier.
Madrid, Aug. 11.—-The fever of excite-
ment over the assassination of Premie1
Canovas del Castillo is still far from
abating
The Spanish 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.
The 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.
15 and Senor Sagasta before Aug. 30.
That lots were drawn to determine
which of the anarchists should be the
murderer of Senor Canovas is deduced
‘ikfimw
{a
SENOR SAGASTA.
from Golli’s statement that he bore the
(lead premier no grudge, but acted sole-
liyl upon the orders of superiors in the
secret society.
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.

1 The Probable Effect.
London, Aug. 11.—The discussion of
what is to be the aftermath of the as-
sassination of Premier Canovas del
Castillo seems to trend 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 inlthe 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 v.ar 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 quarters. .
It is believed here that the time has
come for the United States to effect a
remarkable stroke of diplomacy.
There is no overlooking the fact that
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.
llfllitary Honors For Canovas.
Madrid, Aug. 11.—-The queen regent
'h’as decreed that the military honors
observed in the case of the funeral of
amarshal 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. The
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 Campos. 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 official 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 asystem of examination, by vio-
. lent means if necessary, of all persons
suspected of anarchistic or nihilistic
tendencies. .
Emperor William recently explained
the matter to the czar, and the latter
at once concurred.
'A close watch is being kept on sus-
pects, and the extermination of the arr--
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
arrests will be made soon. ’ A

WHO ARE THEY?
The Words that carry
Weight in Norwalk Are
from NorwaIk-People.
When anything that promises relief
is offered you,the first thing you wish to
- know IS if it ever helped anyone else;
and the amount of faith you will have
in trying it will depend upon the reli-'
ability of the testimony offered in its
behalf. When this is from remote
strangei s,way bey 0nd the reach of you1
consultation, doubts may remain; but
when it comes from disinterested Nor-
walk people, whom you can consult at
any time, its reliability is apparent; its
t1 uth not to be doubted. And the tes-
timony of Norwalk people, and of pi om-
inent people among them, is united in
decla1 mg that California Catarih Cure
cures catari h, that it removes all 131 aces
of this per sistent and humiliatino dis-
ease. Note the words of a. man you
know you can believe:
Mr. D. C. Croft, 11 East avenue, East
N orwalk, after suffering with catarrh
for years, tells of his relief as follows:
" I find that California Catarrh Cure
has relieved me very much. It keeps
my head and throat. much clearer than
they had been for a long time, and the
relief is wonderful. Anyone sufi'e11ng
from catarrh in any form will surely
find it an excellent 1 emedy. It 1 elieves
at once, and I believe the relief 18 pe1-
manent. ”
California Catarrh Cure is the great-
est reliever of hay fever and the great-
est cure. All dealers, 50 cents, three
times as much, one dollar.

to err-5.3111 fzczn the state prison at
Chai'l-.-'1'111't‘.'.-cd.1y Heibert W'illis, the
young Tauntc 11 desr e1ado who was re-
cently semi-11: ed 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. T110 of the latter were wound-
ed by the “'illis brothers, who tried to
shoot their way out.
Everett W’illis was removed to the
Massachusetts General hospital, where
it was found that he had been shot in
the head and neck.
Herbert W'illis, 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 out 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 V’Villls 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 Officer 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 vwith Everett Willis. Both
brothers, who had been beating Dar-
ling, began to pound Abbott. Officer
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 Officer
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.
A Mile In Fifty Seconds.
Rochester, Aug. 11.——A daring feat
was performed at Geneseo, N. Y., by
Tommy Martel. The boy, on a wager
of a hat,- rode down River hill on a bi-
cycle geared to 84. He wagered that he
could ride a mile in a minute, and he
succeeded in making it in 50 seconds.
Martel lost the pedals after going an
eighth of a mile. He clung to the han-
dlebar and reached the foot of the hill
unhurt, but badly frightened.
