Kills Ois Two Young Children and Then Commits Sukide. New York. Nov. 26.—Herman Hattenhaft, physical instructor in a gymnasium and a well known athlete, killed his two young children and himself in Brooklyn. Hat ten haft went out Sunday afternoon, taking the two children with him. After waiting in vain for their return Mrs. Hattenhaft started on a search for the three. The police were informed and yesterday early search was made in the gymnasium where the father was employed. There they found the father and children cold in death. The bodies of the two children were found in a closet used for vapor baths, into which a tube connecting the gaspipe was inserted. The children had died of asphyxiation. The father had shot himself. The wife and mother is so prostrated with grief that it is feared she cannot recover. At intervals between fainting spells Mrs. Hattenhaft said that there had been no domestic difficulties between herself and her husband, and that she thought he must have become temporarily deranged over business troubles, of which she had heard him speak on several occasions.

News Matters of Interest From the City of Washington.
Nebranka's Stateaman AUo Rays the Republicans Will Control the Senate. New York, Nov. 26.—Senator John M. Thurston of Nebraska is at the Fifth Avenue hotel. In an interview yester-
day he said:
“The Republicans of Nebraska are for McKinley for the next presidential candidate, first, lust and all the time.’’ “Do you think that the Republicans will be able to reorganize thi United States senate at the coming session?”
the Mmutor was asked.
“Yes,” he replied, “I believe we will be strong enough to assume control. I have been in Washington for a week and can say that at the opening of the senate the Republicans will start in and reorganize that body. I believe that all the Populist members of the senate will vote with the Republicans this session. That, at least, is the understanding among the leaders now, and I do not

THE ARID LAND GRANT LAW.
Sverntary Hoke Smith Will Recommend an Amendment to the Carey Aet—t.eneral Hancock's Remains to lie Transferred to .Trllngton Cemetery—American Citizen In Trouble. Washinoton, Nov. 26.—Secretary Hoke Smith, in his annual report, will recommend that the Carey law granting 1,000,000 acres of arid laud to each state in which snch lands are situated be amended so that the grant be made to the state outright and it be made responsible for the irrigation of lands. Under the law as it now stands, it would be many years before the state would receive the benefit of tho grant, and Secretary Smith believes that the state can carry out better the intention of cengress if it gets control of the entire grant at once, instead of waiting until water is secured for the lands.
OENKRAL HANCOCK'S REMAINS. Will Be Transferred From Norristown, Pa., to Arlington Cemetery. ■Washinoton, Nov. 26.—It has been decided to remove the body of Major General Winfield S. Hancock to Arlington cemetery from Norristown, Pa., where it has rested since 1886. None of the projects to erect a monument at Norristown have sncceeded, and the committee of the Second artillery corps has sncceeded in securing the conseut of members of the family to the re moval. It is planned to have the burial in Arlington take place next spring, when a monument to General Hancock on one of the public squares in Washington will be dedicated.

SMUGGLERS GET FREE. New Foniidlt*n<! Local Magintrateg Overruled by the Supreme Court. St. Johns, N. F., Nov. 26.—The appeals made by a number of liquor sellers against convictions imposed by local magistrates for smuggling wore sustained by the supremo court yesterday, the indictments being quashed. This probably involves the collapse of the whole agitation against smuggling. Much indignation prevails over the result, it being claimed that the prisoners were prosecuted under the wrong section of tho customs act, and there is a feeling abroad that the authorities in their management of the case conducted ift so as to help their own friends. The immediate release of all persons now under arrest on the charge of smuggling is confidently looked for, it being felt that the government cannot keep certain persons in custody while others are at liberty. It is possible that the board of revenue will now intervene and impose fines in all cases. NOTHING ILLEGAL DONE. PrMld.nt Caldw.ll S.y. th. Trank I>in.. Agra.m.iit 1. All Right. Cleveland, Nov, 26.—President D. W. Caldwell of the Lake Shore does not see anything wrong in the railroad presidents' agreement. “There are positively no grounds,’’ he says, “wereby any legal exceptions can be taken to the rules embodied in the agreement. Its fundamental principle is the makeiug and maintaining of all fares, rates and rules of the association.” “Do you-think Senator Chandler will be able to quash the agreement?” “What do we care for what Senator Chandler or congress does? Nothing illegal has been done. People down at Washington are making all ’.he fuss, but they will find that their efforts will Jiuve been for naught.” Attempt to Poison a Priest.

Ponr Pead Ilodies Found on a Tradinn Itoat In Texats Paris, Tex., Nov. 26.—Fuller developments concerning the finding of a dead man on a trading boat below Arthur City reveals the fact that four men were murdered. About three weeks ago three men purchased the boat and with a boy moved two and a half miles below Arthur. For several days the boat had been observed anchored without a human being in sight. Several citizens concluded to investigate and the corpses of the three men and boy were all found lying in bed, undressed. A ferocious dog prevented the parties from entering fora time, but was finally overcome. Tho victims had evidently been dead several days. One of them met death by his skull being crushed. The men’s clothing was scattered about the room with their pockets turned inside out, showing robbery as well as murder. Identification is not positive, but the party is supposed to have consisted of E. C. Carodv and a young sou aliont 12 years of age, Henry T. Rice, a music teacher, and a man named Maddox, who claimed he was from Atlanta. The party were trappers, hunters, fishermen and gamblers, and had a full outfit with them and a good store of provisions. They had been drifting along the river for some time, stoppmg at several points and remaining some time at each. On tho 18th they were in Arthur City, where they displayed considerable sums of money. They left Arthur Wednesday aud were murdered Thursday night, the 14th, as several shots were heard from the boat. The place was an out of the way spot, the nearest house being two miles away. There is no clew whatever and the officers have no hope of ever solving the mystery, though they are working hard on the case. COLLISION ON THE SANTA FE.
