Mo? Struggles At Bier;
Women And Children Trampled To Death
While Trying To See The Face Of The
Dead Monarch? The Prince Killed An
Anarchist
Lisbon* Feb. 10? The police have been unable to con
trol the people in their desire to view the remains of the
king and prince which have been lying in state for some
days. The crush has created a panic and women and child
ren are being trampled to death.
Tiie scene has changed from that of a solemn procession
paying respects to the dead to that of a shrieking and tur
bulent mob. The police are driving the crowds into the
open squares to relieve the crush at the palace*
An investigation into the circumstances attending the
tragedy makes it quite clear that the crown prince fired two
shots at hi? assailants before he himself was killed. One of
the dead assassins carried a bullet in his head which was
undoubtedly fired from his gun.

SKAGWAY . 3STMASTERSHIP
POST-INTELLIGENCER CALLS FOR A POLL OF ?VOTERS ON THE QUESTION
The Post Intelligencer has wired its cor
respondent in this city instructions to take a
'?poll ol the voters ol Skagway as to their
choice for postmaster as between Whittier
and Kindell and wire results.1'
The message was received this morning.
The interest of the Post Intelligencer in
the matter is, of course- that of a newspaper
?as a matter of news. The subject was can
vased in this offico and among the friends of
the two men today. To visit each voter of
the city, it was decided, was impracticable
out of the question. So it has been decided to
open polls in The Alaskan office and permit
the casting of votes by all regular electors of
the city? those whose names are on the pol
ing list for the last election
That the interested parties may have an
opportunity to make arrangements for their
own protection in this matter, no announce
ment will be made until tomorrow evening as
to the hour of the opening of the polls or the
length of time they will remain open. All ar
rangements will be announced tomorrow
evening.

St. Petersberg, Feb 10 ? When the czarevitch retired
1 last night she found in her bed a letter addressed to herself
, warning her that she and the czar were to be the next vic
? tins of the terrorists.
The letter was written with pen and ink and in' a
strong, legible hand and carried the usual skull and cross
bones of such notices. The czarevitch read the message with
composure and turned it over to the czar who in turn
placed it in the hands of the police department. That the
letter found its way to the bed chamber of the czarevitch
has caused much anxiety to the imperial family and to the
police.
