sentiment ot the South aad Central Ameri

ment there is no intention on the part of
the governments of these countries to
recognize Cuban belligerency. Bolivia has
evinced a purpose to grant such a recogni
tion , but It U explained that Bolivia has
no ports nor commerce that caa be affected
and could take the step without fear of any
disastrous consequences at the hands of
Spain.
The tone of the offlclal papers of South
America generally have been friendly to
Spain and the governments of the respec
tive countries do not care to take any posi
tion which might result In hostilities with
Spain. The attitude of the United States
diplomats , from the southern republics say
will govern nearly eiery South Amerlcaa
country as to recognition of belligerency
and non-intervention.
This disposition uon the part of the
South and Central American republics to
conform their foreign policy to that of the
United States , it is stated , has been more
marked since the latertention of the United

Baron von Modenbert ; gaprtgaed the
opinion that the authoritative declaration ot
the emperor had effectually set the matter
at rest.
Herr Loncmann asked how long the "Ger
man Michael was to wait , now that he had
begun to assert hbi moat sacred rights/
Continuing. Herr Longmana said"After
General Gemler's speech little Ii to be ex
pected from the propcied reform la court
martial procedure No one has the right to
call the officers' clsos the first of the social
scale , and I regret that reserve officers have
lost their former pride in the burgher class ,
to which they belong. "
Herr Longmann concluded with a warn
ing against "too frequent allusion to self-
defense" since there is no such thing as
self-defense for the people , a sentiment
which was warmly applauded by the leftists.
The minister for war. General von Gcsaler
then said that he had accepted the bill
of his predecessor , Von Schellendorf , to
reform the military courts. Continuing the
war minister aald. "The utterances of the
press in "the Bru&sewitz affair have com
pelled me to send to the proper quarters
a whole seriea.of complaints against civilians
for insulting the army , and if the press
continues In these strains , it will have to
reckon with the silent but ever growing
exasperations of the army " In conclusion.
General von Gossler remarked that the
military code expressly forbade military
men from arrogating to themselves superior
ity over other classes.
The minister of justice , Dr Schoenstedt.

NEW YORK. Nov. 19. Frank P. Arbuckle
of Denver. Colo. , was found la an uncon
scious condition , dying , in en obscure place
near a vacant lot Just off the sidewalk la a
lot of reeds , on the west side of Eighth
avenue , between One Hundred and Flfty-
secaod and One Hundred and Fifty-third
streets , at 2.45 o'clock this morning. He
died in the patrol wsgon on the way to a
station house , without regaining conscious
ness.
ness.OQccrs
OQccrs sent out in the case went to the
Atlanta casino near where Artuckle was
found. There they had a talk with the bar
tender. Charles Horstman. who confirmed
the theory that the man had been foully
dealt with. Itarstman said that a man an
swering the description of the dead man
came into the saloon about an hour before
the time he was found unconscious and
called for a drink of whisky He appeared j
at the time to be partly under the Influence !
of liquor In paying for the drink he dls- '
played a large roll of bills and then pulled
from his pocket a heavy watch , which was
attached to a large gold chain. After taking
his drink the man left the saloon. That Is
the last known of his movements until he
was found In the weeds nearly dead. No
money , except a small amount of change
waa found in his pockets , and he bad no '
watch nor chain.
A messenger sent to Frederick Slegel ,
editor of the Tammany Times brought that
gentleman to the station to which Mr. Ar-
bucklc's body hd been taken Slegel inden-
tified the remains beyond doubt.
John Wilkinson of 164 West One Hun
dred and Thirty-third street , this city , who
says he knows Mr Arbuckle well , has asked
the coroner for permission to take charge
of the body.
Th dead man's home Is at Highlands , a
suburb cf Denver. Colo. He wzs an operator
at Russell. Kan. , some years ago. and later
became Interested In politics , and removed
to Colorado , where , under the ClevAland ad
ministration he was appointed land com
missioner at La mar. He was chairman of
the Colorado democratic state central com
mittee. He was president of the Denver
Water company and also largely interested
In mining properties at Cripple Creek. He
leaves a wife and two sons. IS and 13 years
of age respectively The Utter are now at-
ten ling college In the w t.
Mr. Selgcl ild that Mr. Arbuckle had
been stopping at the Fifth Avenue hotel
until within a. few days. His later move
ments were not known to Mr Selgel.
The police surroa at the station house.
after a thorough examination of the body
of Mr Arbuckle. declared that In his opinion
death WJB due to heart failure brought on
by an attempt to ascend the steps of the
elevated station.
According to Mr. Selgel. Mr. Arbuc&le was
instrumental In raising J120JXK ) for the recent
cent- democratic national campalgn-irhtpf
WJLS about one-third of the whole sum dls-
buncd iy the campaign committee.
Coroner's Physician O'Hanlon performed
the autopsy on the body. With the con
clusion of the autopsy all grounds for the
suspicion of foul play In the case of Mr.
Arbuckle's death vanished. Dr O'Hanlon
told the newspaper men that the abrasion
on the head was caused by the fall of the
body. No fracture or Indentation of the
skull was found , nor were there any marks
of violence on the body The autopsy , however -
ever , revealed that the stomach end Intes
tines were badly swollen No traces of
drugs or poisons were visible. The * diseased
parts were sent to Chemist WItthauer for
microscopical examination. The results of
the autopsy tend to show that the diagnosis
of Ambulance Surgeon Rossmcn of the Man
hattan hospital , who. when the body was
brought to the station , declared it to be
a cese of heart failure , is correct. A sug
gestion of suicide was thrown out. but uhen
Colonel Selgel was asked if there was any
reason for pinning faith to such a con
jecture , he said It was absurd.
Colonel Selgel has telegraphed to the dead
man's brother , Richard Arbuckle , who re-
sldas in Erie. Pa. and who it is expected
will arrive tomorrow morning. Dr O Han-
Ion did not grant a certificate of death to
night. He prefers to wait until the arrival
of relatives of the dead man. and then he
may possibly delay until Mr. Wltthauer
has made a report of his microscopical ex
amination.
Mrs. Frank P. Arbuckle. wife cf the de
ceased , passed through Omaha last evening
while en route from her * home in Denver to
New Tork City. She cccupied a section of
the sleeper on the Union Pacific which ar
rives here at 4 45. It had been planned by
the friends of Mrs. Arbuckle In Denver to
have the news of her bereavement communi
cated to her at this point , as. It was known
that she was on her way to New York to
spend a few weeks with her husband. She
was met at the depot by a. couple of news
paper men. who found that the duty of In
forming her of the husband's demise had
been performed by others , as she had al
ready been told by the trainmen at 11
o'clock that morning.
Mrs. Arbuckle's eyes were red with weep
ing , but she was bearing up as well as could
be expected under the circumstances. She
stated that she had left Denver Wednesday
In compliance with a letter from her bus-
bend , which requested her to make him a
Mill in New York. He was In the habft
of making several trips yearly to the me
tropolis , and she frequently Joined him
there , the two returning home together.
Mrs. Arbuckle said her husband had been
in New York for about two weeks. He had
usually registered at the Fifth Avenue hotel
and bad done so upon bis last visit. In hid
letter he bad stated that he should move
to the house of hi * friend. Frederick Seigel.
editor of the Tammany Times , who resides
at 236 West Thirty-ninth street.
The widow said she should continue on
her way to New York and would take charge
of the remains. Her children did not ac

that he would arrive In Omaha thto

I had better wait for papers and will get

prated himeelf as willing to return for

subsequent telegram from Cox would indi
cate that his prisoner had possibly changed
hte mind , refusing to come to Omaha unless
forced.
In a letter from Cox to Captain Haze
. ecelved yesterday the oQcer In Cedir
Rapids stated that Elliott freely admitted

fictitious ode upon being arrested. The one
thing abcut which he teemed to be the
most worried was the finding of the J65 In
the rim of his hat after he had stated to
the ofScers that he only had J5 in bis
possession. Sergeant Cox after arriving at
edar Rapids had Elliott stripped at the
station and thoroughly searched. Letters
addressed to Charles H. Elliott were found
upon him and on the lower edges of the
trousers large spots of bload were dis
covered , as If the garment had been trailed
in blood.
Elliott will probably arrive in this city
on the afternoon Northwestern train , which
is due here at 3-30. It is possible , however - '
ever , that tad officer and his prisoner may
get on * the train In the Bluffs and take the
motor to this side of the river as this
would avoid any crowd which might be
collected at the Union depot for the pur
pose of catching a glimpse of the prisoner.

SALT LAKE CITY , Utah. Nov. 19.
Apostle Moses Thatcher has been declared
"contumacious" and dropped from the rolls
of the Mormon church. This was the day
fixed by the church authorities for the trial
of Mr. Thatcher for his failure to take
counsel before taking part in political
matters a year ago when he was a can
didate for United States senator. A card
appeared In the Deseret News this evening ,
signed by the president of the twelve
apostles , to the effect that a meeting of
the apostles was held , and that it was
unanimously decided that Moses Thatcher
be severed from the council of the twelve
apnsties and that he be deprived of his
apostleship and other offlces In the priest
hood. Mr Thatcher refused to appear.
claiming that he had been publicly accused
before the people , and that he was entitled
to a public trial. In his absence he was
unanimously declared "contumacious. " Mr.
Thatcher Is being pushed by some of bis
friends for the United States senate. The
Dcseret News , the recognized organ of the
Mormon church , opposes bis election , and
says his candidacy rests solely upon his hos
tile attitude to the church. On the other
hand , It is claimed that any attempt by
the church authorities to folio ? ? him be
yond the portals of the church and into
politics would be looked upon as a viola
tion of the agreement made when Utah
was admitted as a state.

TEKAMAH. Neb , Nov. 19 ( Special Tele
gram ) The Jury in the HIscox case returned
turned a verdict of not guilty at 7.10 this
evening , af'er being out but three and one *
halt hours.
The prisoner took her place In the court
room , as calm as at any time during her
long trial. The only sign she gave of the
strain upon her mind was the paleness at
her features.
She showed no signs of animation after
the announcing of the verdict , until her rel
atives and friends crowded around hrr.
In the trial today the time was consumed
by Attorney Argo in an argument for the
defense. Attorney Glllis for the state anJ
the Instructions of the judge to the jury.
Arga in his closing remarks paid Judge
Powell a handsome compliment In saying
that tn all his practice as a criminal lawyer
he had never tried a case before a judge
who was more fair to both sides than was
Judge Powell.
The Instructions consisted of twenty-
se > en separate counts , and were mostly
upon the law of the case. The jurors w > r
advised that it was their duty to banish
from their mind all passion , prejudice or
sympathy The evidence as to the declara
tions and whereabouts of Calvin and Grant
Hisrox during the day and night just prior
to the commission of the crime was not
shown by the state to have any connection
with the defendant , and the Jurors were
Instructed to give it no consideration. They
were also Instructed not to consider.tha .
testimony of Hans Hanson as to the con
versation had with tbe Hlscox boys In the
jail at Oakland on the afternoon of June
2. the conversation being several hours
after the homicide and in the absence of
the defendant. The court instructed that
the evidence of acts and declarations of the
defendant and her relations with Fred Sell
ers prior to the homicide should be consid
ered , if the jury found that she did commit
the crime , for the purpose of showing-
whether * he probably acted under such
provocation as might reduce the degree of
the offense from murder to murder in the-
second degree or to manslaughter
In the eleventh Instruction the Judge told
the Juron that if they believed Sellers
pointed a revolver at the defendant and
threatened to take her life , and that soon
afterward he followed her into the house
where the shooting took place , that there *
he seized her in such a manner as would
naturally and reasonably cause her to be
lieve that she was in immediate and present
danger of suffering great bodily Injury or
of death then the defendant would be
justified in using such force , means or
weapons as she believed necesoary. and if
It resulted In the death of Sellers she would
not be guilty of any offense. In the twelfth.
Instruction the Jurors were instructed that
If they found that Sellers was unlawfully
kilted and that the defendant was present
and In atrf manner aided or encouraged the
same , she Is oiilty. although some other
person may have Cred the shot.
In the succeeding Instructions the Judge
Instructed the Jury as to what constitutes
murder In the first And second degrees and
manslaughter Instruct'ons were given as
to bov the Jury should weigh and consider
the testimony. They were a'.so Instructed
not to discard the testimony of tbe defend
ant , given In her own behalf , nor were
they to blindly believe It as wholly true ,
but to clve It fair consideration In connec
tion with other evidence in the case.
