lTHE London Times says. in regard to the
stipulatiOns Of the treaty alleged to have
been arranged between Minister McLane and
Juarez, at Vera Cruz, that Mexico will, from
the moment the treaty is ratified, virtually
pass under American sway 1t then adds,
that the result will be advantageous to Mexi-
co and the world, but thinks the extent to
which private rights will be respected or
jeopardized an anxious question. The Ameri-

protect the interests Of foreign bond holders.

ANOTHER GARDNER FURSISs AFTAIR.-The
following We find in the Cincinnati Enquirer,
of last week. Truly "the way of the transgres-
sor is hard:''
A day or two ago something ofan excitement
was created on Sycamore street by the appear
ance of man in y single garment making
precipitate retreat in broad daylight, in the di.
rection of uptown. This ill-ciad individual
had scarcely passed before another-in full cos
tune, however was seen in hot pursuit, breath
ing threats of vengeance, and holding tornid.
able looking revolver in his hand. The pursued
disappeared in the doorway Of house near at
hand, and the pursuer disappeared there like
wise, but returned, after half an hour, with the
air of one who has sought and failed Of revenge
The cause Of this unexpected apparition Is
thus related: A certain shoulder-hitter, who
has distinguished himself in the ''ring," had
become too intimate with the wife of one of his
boon companions, proprietor of coffee house
in the thoroUghfare mentioned, and in one Of
his visits, and when he supposed the husband
absent from the city, he was surprised by that
gentleman himself
The guilty pair had not been in the same room
for more than fifteen minutes before the hus-
band appeared upon the scene, creeping steal
lhiy through the hall of the house on murder
Gus purpose bent. He tried the door-it was
locked, of course-and then, without further
preface, he kicked vehemently at the portal, but
50 strongly was it secured that it did not give
way. Reused to pitch of frenzy, he fired
twice through the pannelling, hoping no doubt
\ to kill one or both of the inmates. a loud
scream was the response to the sharp reports Of
the pistol, and the husband thought he had
been successful in his purpose; but hearing q
great commotion in the apartment he again
piled his feet until the door gave way, just in
time to afford him glance of a white garment
disappearing through window. He fired a
third shot without effect, and then rushed after
the retreating man of muscle, who escaped into
the street. Again he caught glimpse OF the
destroyer of his peace, and pulled the trigger o
his pistol, but the cap exploded, and before he
could repeat the experiment. the pursued had
taken shelter in the house to which we have
alluded.

Inc New York papers give the particulars oil
a horrible attempt ut murder by Anna Maria
Bosley Cajay, negro woman, who desired to
kill her mother to obtain possession of$55. Tho
policeman found the victim with an axe deeply
buried in her skull, and the daughter sitting her
parents groans with bed clothes. An improper
intimacy with young colored man is mention
ed among the details of the affair. The deposit
ton of the dying woman was taken, and she
clearly stated the circumstances OF Anna Maria's
crime. The latter, in her statement to the Off
GERS, said
"About four o'clock this morning l got up to
kill my mother, but didn't bave courage; sat
up in an outside room in the dark ever so long,
and took up the axe three times before
made up my mind; went into her room at last
with light, and while my mother lay asleep
chopped her on the side Of her head; she woke
up kind of stupid, and | struck at her again in
the face, Us she raised herself up in the bed
with that she jumped out of bed and cried; she
ran into the other room and screamed out,
Somebody is numbering me! somebody IS MUIR
dering mel Is ityou, Anna MariaY She scream
ed so awful that felt too bad to take the mon
ey, so ran into the bedroom and got the clothes
off the bed and threw them over her to smother
her cries; but she got up and ran out into the
entry, and up stairs, crying I'm murdered and
got out of the back window on to the shed,
slid down into the yard and ran into Mott
street then into Houston street. and came back
into Elizabeth street, where | saw the officer
rapping with his club. said to him.. Are you
looking for me?' aud he said yes, and gave
myself up"

Icorre.pOndence Of the 1nteIligenoer.l

MOCNDSvILLE, req. II, 1909.
There was a Democratic meeting held in this
town OF Thursday night 10th inst, in - vacant
store room near the Post Office, ostensi6ly to
appoint delegates to the convention to be held in
this place on the 10th inst, to nominate candi-
dates for State Senate and House of Delegates;
but really to appoint delegates to the Wheeling
Congressional Convention, opposed to the Hon.
Sherrard Clemens, the meeting being gotten up
principally under the auspices of the Hon. jeff.
Martin. The meeting was organized by electlng
E. Cligg President, and jackson Martin Secre-
tary On motion |. G. Barron, John Whinsey
and Robt. Alexander were elected to represent
Moundsvile in the County and Senatorial Con-
vention, with instructions to vote for w. IL.
Oldham, Esq, as a candidate for the State SEN
late-leaving the delegation uninstructed as to
n candidates for the House of Delegates.
These matters being very quietly and AMIGA
| bly, disposed OF, there was pause before the
principal object of the meeting was introduced.
AT length tue Hon. jeff Martin set the ball in
motion by moving that the meeting appoint
delegates to the convention to be held in Wheel
ing on the 18th inst. Col. John Thompson
offered the following resolution, US near as can
recollect am compelled TO quote from mem
DRY:
Resolred, That this meeting recommend to
held in Wheeling on the 18th inst, that the
Hon. S. Clemens be nominated as the best
means of preserving the harmony and unity OF
the party.
This led to an animated debate; JEFF Martin
in opposition to the resolution, and Col. Thomp-
son and John Strason in favor, which became
quito spirited before its close Col. ThompsoD's
resolution passed ny handsome majority, not
withstanding the full anti. Clemens force of our
| little town were in attendance. Thus Mounds
vile has virtually endorsed the position taken by
| "Sherrardr "H"
