Miss Mabel Page daughter of Edward Page wealthy retired ironmaster found stabbed to death in her Weston home near Waltham Massachusetts. The motive remains unknown while a note about her brother's supposed injury misled investigators. Jewels lay visible as the body was found, suggesting robbers were not the motive.

A separate report mentions a St Louis convention to nominate a presidential candidate for a new party led by S P Mitchell and J J Watton naming a civil liberal platform and government ownership of transportation facilities and farmer pensions.
