The Criminal Trials to Go On.
CIVIL TRIALS STOPPED.


The Circuit Court jurors answered to their
names this morning and We're respited to the LIST
of July, subject to being called again should oc-
casion req uire. This action is necessary in con-
sequence of the exhaustion Of the funds to pay
Jurors. In the Crmi al Court this morning
District Attorney Wortnington said that in
view OF the funds for the payment OF Jurors
being exhausted it was prole for him to state
what arrangements he had made. FIVE years
ago they had Il similar uiiiicuity, but with the
assent of the Attorney General and the first
controller OF the Treasury certificates had been
issued, which We're Oh ,iIed by one of the baui KS
nj n very small discount. Since then the SUI
preme Court Of the United S;ases had decided
that such certificates were not assignable. The
jurors would, however, be paid eventually. and
the controller would include in the estimates IA
sum sufficient for the purpose. He had sue
ceeded in obtaining special allowance for
navy fraud trials. He hoped that the jurors
would remain for the remainder of the time
and suggested that the court question the
Jurors rs 10 remaining.
The court said that unless the jurors informed
him otherwise he would assume that they
would remain. The Constitution gave prison
ers the right 10 a speedy trial. and it would be
matter of regret il any accused person desirous
Of a trial should be unable To secure Il trial.
None of the jurors expressed u desire to re-
tire, and the trials proceeded.

The Troubles ON the Isthmus.

WHAT COMMANDER M'CALLA SAYS OF THEM.
Commander L. H. McCalla, who commanded
the land forces on the recent Isthmus of Pana-
ma expedition, has returned to Washington,
and was to-day at his desk in the Navy depart
ment In conversng with n STAR reporter
about the expedition he said that our govern
ment succeeded in its object of keeping the tram
sit of the isthmus open without loss of life. and
TO the great satisfaction of all the powers repre-
scnted there. By occupying the town damage
10 american property was prevented, and by
WithuraWlDg the forces when the insurrcctiOn-
ISIS guaranteed that there should be no fighting
or barrlcading in the streets, the insurgents
were compelled either to surrender or fight out
Side the town, in which event they would have
been easily whipped by the nationalists.
Inc immediate cause of the troubles, he said,
was the absence of Colombian forces from the
lsthmus. Every week, when the employees of
the canal company are paid their wages, high
way robbery is practiced on all sides. and an
instruction is very easily started unless prompt
measures can be taken 10 prevent it, There are
number of men there like PreStan only
not so bright, who are always ready to take IL
mana In melting inSurrectiOn. "There will he
no more trouble there" he said, as long as
there Is nationalist force present. Martial
law, winch Is i'll force, Is just what is needed.
Commander McCala added that the stories
about a disagreement between Admiral Jouctt
ana himself were ridiculous. Admiral Jouctt,
ne said, was his commanding officer. to whom
ne was ordered to report, and such Il thing as a
disagreement or misunderstanding was not
possible under the circumstances

Special Cable Di ,patch TO THE EVENING STAR
LONDON. May 1S.-The further Anglo-Rus-
sian diplomatic correspondence contained i'm
the blue book, issued on saturday, deals only
with ancient history, stopping on April 9Th.
1t serves chiefly TO show the growth Of the Rus
sian demands day by day. and that while the
diplomati,ts were exchanging phrases, the
Russian soldiers were taking all that
wanted. All the papers here blame the gov
eminent for Naciiiaiion and credulity. The
Daitp -Ne,cs says: The correspondence shows
IN the cleareSt manner that the conduct of the
Russian officials was sure TO provoke IA collision
OF the Cossacks and Afghans and cause total
failure OF the boundary commission" The
Dutiy Telegraph says: I'VE are thankful that
the Aighan people are not likely To peruse

From all parts OF the continent ths morning,
from Vienna, Berlin, Paris and from Caicaita,
come expressions ol douot about the pCrIna-

THE FARCE OF ARBITRATION.
The very unusual distinctions of swords of

posed afbltratlou simply a farce- Lord Dut11rln
L., perhaps the strongest factor at this moment,
but nobody knows hi, position. As he knows
Russia well, the ,Ians naturally regard

The runorso ofa n occupation of Suabim
indicate the irony lute. Mr. Gladstone VIII

able Turk.
