to-day to suffer for heinous crime which I
did not commit.s At one day my innocence
will be established beyond doubt. 1 bid
you one and all goodbye. Oh, Lord, Thou
knowest l am innocent. Into Thy hands 1
commit my soul. 1 am innocent'' The last
words were said just as the drop fell. He was
pronounced dead in ten minutes None of
his relatives were present.

CITY OF MEXICO via GALVESTON, March %.
The secretary Of the interior has issued a
circular that the reform laws must be strictly
observed the incoming holy week. At this
period it is the custom in many villages near
Mexico and in other parts of the republic to
have religious professions in the streets car
rying the post and representing often the
passions of Christ These spectacles while
imposing to the Indians are viewed as OBJ
jects of amusement and rldicule by the edu-
Gated class and also in direct opposition to the
reform laws, which prohibit rel1fous process
sions outside of churches. bis morning
the annual feast, called Pas 20 De Flores,
was celebrated on the Viga ca,al and was
participated in by all from theIoHest to the

WASHINGTON, March %. IT. NJ. Ziebach,
the candidate for governor of Dakota, ar
rived here to-day aud is much elated touch
ing his prospects. He is backed by the terri
torial Democratic committee and by the
Dakota member of the national Democratic
committee. Ex-Congressman Caulfield OF
Chicago, another candidate, is on the ground.
He has behind him congressional influence
retary Lamar. Ziebach is accompanied by
Burt Taylor of the Dakota Herald. Capt.
Marratta of Bismarck is also candidate, but
being interested in Missouri river navigation
left here two weeks ago to look after his in
terest in that line, but is expected back here
every day. 1t is also understood that
Gov. Pierce has agreed to resign
in order to let Ordway have Dem
ocratic candidate for the same place,
but the name is not given. There seems TO
be the usual quarreling among Dakota men
for all the i'm portant appointments, and in
the present state of uncertainty as to the
presidential policy of appointments the pros
pect is not promising for any Of these aspir-
ants. John Lawler of Mitchell filed an appli-
cation before leaving here for the appoint
ment of register of the land Office at Mitchell
Day. the national committee man, is on the
ground begging Lamar TO remove Sessinger,
who was recently appointed and who it is
claimed is an Idaho and not Dakota man.

CHICAGO, March 27.-Joseph L. Smith, a
well-dressed and intelligent appearing man
OF 33, was arrested yesterday at the instance
of W. a. Fitzgerald, superintendent of the
Chicago Watch Case company, charged with
larceny. It appears that Smith, who has
been employed three years by the Watch
Case company as a refner, has been con-
tinually robbing his employers. His steal
ings, Mr.. Fitzgerald thinks, will amount to
$500. Having vast quantity of raw gold
to handle, he has daily stolen small nuggets
and small amounts of gold clippings, scrap
ings, etc. Smith. would not have been
detected in his crookedness but for the
jealousy of a woman. The cuprit's wife died
about twelve days ago, and he took her re-
mains to Providence to be inferred. Re-
turning to Chicago three days ago be took up
with disreputable female and Installed her
in the house in which his wife had died.
This caused the jealousy of another woman,
with whom he had been intimate, and in her
rage she notified the superuteD dent of the
Watch ompany that Smith was presenting
his female friends with his stealings from
the firm. His case will be tried next Mon.

Special to the Globe.

BALTIMORE, March 26.-The suit of Mrs.
Blanche Ehlen, nee Darringer, Of Philadel-
phia, against her father-in-law, John II.
Ehleu, of this city, to obtain possession of
the remains of her deceased husband. was
commenced here to-day before Chief Judge
Brown. Owing to the high social standing
Of the parties the courtroom has been
crowded.
John II. Ehleu, the husband Of the COM
plainaut, died in November, 1888, and his
lot at Greenmount cemetery. Shortly after
the widow returned to the residence of her
parents in Philadelphia. In June last she
applied to the cemetery authorities for per-
mission to remove the remains of her bus
band so she could inter them in Laurel
cemetery, Philadelphis, whereby she
might have opportunity of visiting
the grave. The father of the deceased
objected to the removal, alleging that the de-
ceased had often visited the cemetery while
alive, aud expressed his wish to be buried
there. He says that to allow the remains to
bc removed would be narrowing to the feel
ings of the entire family. He admits having
declined TO permit their removal and SAYS be
acted in conformity With the wishes of the
deceased, his son. Complainant claims
that the remains of her husband were only
temporarily inferred in the lot of her father
iu-lav, and that 1t was understood that they
were to be subsequently, removed to Phila-
delphia, aud that she paid all the expenses of
the funeral In her hill she asks that the re-
spoudeut be enioiued from interfering with
the removal Of the remains Of her husband.
The case will occupy several days The most
learned counsel in the state are en- ployed.

In Trance for Twenty Eight Days.

NORTH HOPE, Pa, March 27.-A little
daughter of Joseph Renver was taken Ill
several weeks ago with collie and went into a
trance, being to all appearances dead. The
heart ceased to beat The pulse was extinct
and respiration ceased. In this condition
the body was two days and then the family
began discussing the funeral. After every
thing had been settled the child showed un-
mistakable signs of life. The doctor was
again called and restoratives were applied.
Although respiration returned and the sction
of the heart began consciousness did not
return, and all efforts to restore the child
were fruitless. She remained in this state
for twenty-six days On the evening of
the twenty-sixth day she opened her eyes
and feebly asked for drink of
water. From that time on she rapidly
gained strength, and is now able to go about.
From the time she took sick til the day
she gained consciousness twenty-eight days
passed, and during that time she partook of
no food. Wherever an attempt was made
to open her mouth the muscles controlling
her jaws became rigid and her mouth could
not be opened.

Treaty of Alliance Entered Into.

WASHINGTON, March 27.-Information has
been received in this city that on the 25th
inst. treaty of alliance, offensive and de-
fensive, was formally signed at Salvador by
the governments of San Salvador, Nicaragua
and Costa Rica. An alliance was entered
into by those states Immediately
upon the announcement of Presi-
dent Barrios' project of confederation,
but the details of the plan of action for mu-
tual defense were not agreed upon until the
25tt, when the treaty was. siguedss BY the
treaty Costa Rica pledges herself to con-
tribute to the common defense for the pres
ent with 100000 and 1000 troops, who are
now in Nicaragua, en- route to the seat of
hostilities. Nicaragua agrees to fur
nish 1000 troops, and San Salvador
her entire available military forces. Costa
Rica gives her aid to the alliance in money
rather than the troops, because her distance
from the border line of San Salvador, where
the Guatemalean forces will seek to enter the
territory of the allies, there is no railroad
and no way for troops to reach San Salvador
from Costa Rica except by tedious march
of several hundred miles. By the terms of
the treaty the president of San Salvador will
have the direction of operations against
Barrios for the present.

LONDON, March 27.-The Globe says that
a proposal partaking of the nature of an
''ultimatum" was telegraphed BY the govern
ment to st. Petersburg yesterday. 1t re-
quested at the same time that the Russian
government should send an answer that
would reach Downing street not later than
Monday next. The Globes also del Qares that
Earl Granville, on the 10Th inst, proposed
to Russia that both Russians and Afghans
should withdraw from that portion of the ter
ritory which is at present the subject of dis
pute. aud remain outside it during the con-
tinuance OF the negotiations then in progress
at London. To this proposal Russia sent no
reply until last Wednesday. She refused to
accede to England's proposition on the
ground that the withdrawal of her troops
would be source of humiliation to Russia.
After this answer was received the cabinet
decided to call out the reserves and militia
and send the ultimatum referred to.
