FRANK JAMES OUT OF JAIL.
While He Walks the Streets Negro Carries
Chain for Stealing Ham.

KANSAS Cry, Nov. Frank James, the
notorious outlaw, under arrest at Galatin,
was yesterday given the freedom of the town,
and with his wife and child to-day walked
about, visiting stores at will. Mr.. Coomber,
a United States juror, came to Kansas City
to-day and laid the matter before United
States Marshal McGee, to see if the govern
ment did not have some hold upon the ex-
train-robber whereby he could be locked up.
1t transpires that a United States warrant is
out for James's arrest from Alabama for par
tcpating in the Shoals robbery, but that can
not be acted upon until the State of Missouri
is through with the prisoner. Great indigna-
ton is felt by the citizens of Gallatin over
the fact of Frank James being allowed his
liberty. In the courthouse, while James
was walking about the street, was a negro
with ball and chain attached to his legs
who is charged with stealing ham for his
family,

dian delegation was received. Miss Willard
welcomed them in behalf of the convention.
Mrs. Youmans, of Canada, responded.
Among those present are Rev. DR.. Merrick,

The Cause of the Failure.

LONDON, Nov 1.-The Times attributes the
failure of Morris Rangor, the Liverpool cot
ton broker, to his grossly reckless specula-
lation in England and America, and on the
continent. 1t says he aimed to control the
cotton exchange of the world, and had the
help of wealthy houses in London, New York
and Hamburg. The effect of the failures at
Liverpool will be local. The London money
market will not be affected by them. Proba-
bly, there will be an increased demand for
cotton. followed by a reaction. The Times
severely condemns the wild dealing in futures
prevailing in Liverpool, and advises the
adoption of American rules for the deposit
of margins as some restriction thereto.

claiming to be Mrs, Sharon, has brought suit
in the Superior Court against Senator
Sharon for divorce, division of the com
munity property, and alimony. The claims
are based on willful desertion and repeated
acts of adultery. She says when she was
married to the Senator he was deeply in
debt and his property was only worth S..
100000. Under joint management as man
and wife, the Senator is now worth SIS. 900,
900. She asks that an account he taken OF
all business transactions since the marriage

be determined and equally divided.

being the most graceful eulogist of the dead.
His return may have some effect upon ma
tional politics, for if he is able to take his
seat it is confidently expected that he will be
the choice of the Republican caucus for the
position of president pro TEN. He will, there
fore, stand in the relation to the country OF
possible President of the United States. SEN
ator EGmunds has already given notice that
if Mr.. Anthony is able to take his seat he
will not permit his own name to be used
in connection with the position of presiding
officer. 1t is however, not to be expected
that Mr.. Anthony will be physically able to
perform continuously the duties of that
place. He may receive the title out of the
consideration and esteem in which he is held
by both sides of the chamber but younger
men will have to hold the gavel through the
long hours of droning debate. The rules of
the Senate have been so changed that tenn
porary presiding officer can be appointed for
a day without the embarrassment which the
absence of the e-president has hitherto
occasioned. No one will refuse to Mr.. An
thopy the honor of filling the chair in which
he for so many years has sat, or of wearing
the title to which he so long has given dig
nifty. He has notyet taken the oath of office
for the new term of six years-his fifth con-
tinuous term as senator. The example of
General Schenck, whose life four years ago
was abandoned, but who now seems Wig
orous and hearty. may certainly give en-
enlargement TO one in Mr.. Anthony's condi-
ton.

An Important Land Case Decision.

DENVER, Nov, IAN unusually important
case was decided by Judge McCrary, of the
United States Circuit Court, to-day. The
United States brought suit to cancel sixty
one patents of land held by the Colorado
Coal and Iron Company and others of Los
Animas. The patents were obtained through
the presumption law between 1870 and 1874
and issued through the Pueblo land office.
1t was afterward found that two patents
were irregularly obtained the patentees be-
ing fictitious persons. Testimony was intro
duced to show that the register and receiver
of the land Office were parties to the fraud.
The defense claimed that the deeds were now
good, granting they were fraudulently OBJ
tanned, because the lands are now in the
hands of innocent parties. The Judge held
adversely and rendered decision in favor OF
the complainant which cancels the title to
1850 acres of valuable land

of these acts were otherwise, the still con-
temporaneous construction thereof by the
General Land Office and States of Iowa and
Illinois, in numerous and inn
portant transactions, has established
the meaning first above suggested.
In 1858 the State of Iowa made a formal de-
mand upon the Secretary of the Interior as
an official superior TO the then Commits
sioner-general of the Land Office, to be al
lowed the percentage now claimed, and the
81 me was refused, with reasons, whereupon
the State practically acquieseed in such rul-
ing until the date of the present demand,
twenty-five years thereafter, combining its
efforts in the meantime to applications to
Congress for a change in the statutes above
mentioned"
The argument will be continued to-mor-
row. The principle involved in this litiga-
ton affects the proceeds of more than sixty
three million acres of public land, in nine

A Belief that England Will Interfere in the
Event of an Outbreak.

"A BeIIe1 that England VIII Interfere IN the
Event of an Outbreak.
LONDON Nov. Paris kilograms contain
the following: War between France and
China would so seriously imperil the British
interest that it is thought that England
would, in the event of an outbreak OF hos
tilities, intervene. France will not provoke
a rupture with China, but negotiations will
not be renewed until the French are firmly
seated in Tonquin.
The Voltaire believes that the Minister of
Foreign Affairs will soon resign on the
ground of i'll health, and that Prime Minis
ter Ferry will take charge of the foreign
portfolio In that event mediation between
France and China will again be suggested,
which neither will be disposed to accept.
1t is reported that the Black Flags occupy
Sontay, ana that the Chinese possess Bac-
mini. If the French attack the latter place
war with China will be inevitable.

enabled to state that the views of the Chinese
embassy is that Wednesdays vote in the
French Chamber, expressing confidence in
the ministry, is the first step toward war, and
if M. Ferry asks for money to dispatch rein
forcements 10 Tonquin, China will certainly
enter Tonquin forthwith.

physician at one time told him that there

The Providence doctor believed it was an ag-
gravated case OF Bright's disease. The Wash

ary difficulty was with the heart. The
symptoms in the two cases are said to be
similar. The fact that the Senator lived so

To-day the intern atonal labor conference
discussed the best means for furthering a
permanent understanding among working
mems societies of different countries. The
Italian and Spanish delegates advocated par
liamentary agitation, popular propaganda,
and universal suffrage. A French delegate
again spoke in favor of resort to force, as
nothing could be gained otherwise. Other
delegates, especially those from England
vigorously protested against such ideas, the
expounders of which, they declared, were
the worst enemies of the working classes.
General applause was ELECTED by this declara-

masters, the speakers thought were amply
sufficient.

advocated the formation of unions in France
similar to those in England Signor Costa,
an Italian delegate, announced that the
