COON WAS NOT APPOINTED.
The Assistant Secretary of the Treasury is
Not AnybOdy's Man.

WASHINGTON, March Is. - Secretary
WINDOWS attention was to-day called to
the newspaper statement that he was over
ruled in the matter of the appointment Of
Assistant Secretary Bachelor. The story
was that he had rendered the place to Coon,
and the latter accepted, and the appoint
ment of Bachelor was in direct opposition
to his wishes. 1t further stated that Bachel-
lor was ''Platt's man. and would have con-
troll Of the treasury patronage.
Mr. Window said he did not usually
notice newspaper criticisms, but this is so
unfair and misleading that he did not like
to let it go unchallenged. AS matter of
fact, he said, the presiden had referred this
appointment to him, and he had acted in &C
cOrdance with his recommendation in ap-
pointing Bachelor.
1t was true that Coon had been consid-
cred in connection with this Office. 1t was
never rendered him, however, and conse
quently he had not accepted it. The ap-
pointment of Bachelor was made after
careful consideration and was in no sense
reflection upon Coon.
Secretary Window said it was absurd to
say that any assistant secretary would
have control of the treasury appointments.
That was matter entirely in the hands of
the president and himself, and was not
likely to be relegated to any. other official,
The secretary said, so far as he knew,
Bachelor could not be considered as any

Dan Jones, Anderson Mitchell and Willie
Green, the latter a preacher We're executed
at Arkadelphia to-day for the murder of
Arthur Horton, a colored man, September
81, 1887. The execution took place in the
court yard. The sheriff granted them the
opportunity to make final addresses.
Jones delivered himself at some length in
a disconnected wandering harangue, but
Mitchell and Green maintained stolid
silence. Jones confessed, in a measure, his
guilt, but wanted it known that he did not
strike the fatal blow, and intimated by
manner and gesticulatiOns that the others
did.
The trap went down at 1910; the necl1s OF
all were broken.
On the fatal night seven negroes entered
Hortan's room, their faces covered with
-four, wrapped a quilt about his head and
forEibly carried him $50 yards into the
woods, where he was given $50 lashes.
Then as he promised to leave the state he
was left sitting on log and the crowd ap-
parently dispersed.
It was not feared, however, that the three
sufferers of to-day, fingered behind the
otherk four, and were finally separated from
theHL
The next day portions of the body were
found lifeless, with his skull, collar bone
and two ribs crushed in.

A Wild Scene In Court.

NEW YORK, March 15.-District Attorney
Fellows finished his address to the jury this
morning in the case of Thomas B. Kerr
charged with bribery. Judge Daniels then
addressed them, reviewing the evidence
and the case.
When Judge Daniels concluded his charge,
the jury retired. They returned with a
verdict of not guilty, at few minutes past
o'clock. There was wild scene. Hats
flew up and cheers were given. Judge
Daniels was much angered. He directed
the court officers to arrest any one partici
pating in the riotous proceeding.
Kerrs brether, Chauncey, and friend
were seized upon. The judge lectured them
and told them to come around tomorrow
and receive their punishment. Kerr's
counsel, Colonel Ingersoll, pleaded for them,
but in vain.

She VIII be a Fleet Boat.

WASHINGTON, March 15.-Encouraging
reports are had from the committee to the
navy department respecting the torpedo
boat now building at the Herreshoff
Works, in Rhode Island. Inspectors say the
material used is of high quality and the
work of good character.
Contractors expect to complete the boat
by June l, which is the date fixed in the
contract. The boat is required to make
twenty-five knots an hour and any
deficiency Of this score will subject con-
tractors to penalties, while for any excess
above twenty-three knots they will receive
bonus.
If the new craft, which is the first of it's
kind in American ship building, fills the re-
quirements, of which there is little doubt, it
will be the feeted boat in the United States
and fully equal to any possessed by
European nayies

look over the whole of the latter's past cor
