LONDON, June 17.-Mrs. Margaret p.
Sullivan, wife of Alexander Sullivan, of
Chicago, who is spending few days with
friends in London, says that while she is
deeply panied at the falsehood of the impu-
tation implied in associating her husband
with the Groin mystery, her knowledge
of her husbands absolute innocence of the
crime sustains her. So far as the sensa-
ton relates to her husband, she SAYS she
sees in 1t Chicago newspaper rot, composed
partly of Anticipated calumnies which were
shown to be untruths years ago; partly of
malignant aspersions of personal and poll
teal methods whose motives Chicago edit
Ors do not appreciate. She says she deeply
deplores CrOnin's death, and says the pre-
sumption that her husband had an interest
in his death rests upon an error which for
a time may seem to justify censure. This
error will be perfectly shown hereafter.
Those who now condemn her husband will
be generous in acknowledging his patience
and fortitude.

ton election, and Smith had made prepare

lard from voting his Oregon & Trauscon-
tinental holdings The two parties came
together and held conference until
o'clock this morning, when Willard agreed
to dispose of his Transcontinental holdings
in the Oregon Railway & Navigation, his
object being to dispose of them as widely
as possible.
The roads north of Snake river, which
have been among the chief objects of con-
tention, are to be taken, when completed,
into the Oregon Railway & Navigation
system and to be operated as part of it.
This will give Portland direct line to the
Coeur d'Alene mining region and another
line to Spokane Falls. This is based on
the lease of the Oregon Railway g. Navi-
cation to the Oregon Short Line and the
Union Pacific, which holds good, and all the
lines will be operated as one, the Northern
Pacific to have nothing to do with it.
1t was further agreed that the name of
Proper l. Smith, Elijah's brother, be sub
stituted for that of P. Olcott, New York,
on the Oregon Railway & Navigation direc-
tory with the understanding that Edmund
Smith, of Philadelphia, formerly vice
president of the Pennsylvania railway, is
to be vice-president of the Oregon Railway

Wrestling for the Championship of the World

Especial to THE HERALD-Examner Cable.l
PLYMOUTH, England, June 1.-THE
match between Jack Wannop, champion of
England, and Jack Carkeek, champion of
America, for 600 and the wrestling cham
pionship of the world, took place near here
Saturday The articles stipulated for the
best of three falls i'll Cumberland, Cornish
and catch -catch-can style. Armstrong,
of the Sporting Life, was appointed referee
and stakeholder. Carkeek stripped looked
in the best condition, Wannop having su-
perf1uous flesh. The betting was in favor
of Carkeek. The men scaled at twelve
stone each. Wanuop won the toss, and Sc
lected the Cumberland style. He threw
Carkeek two backs in eight minutes, but
Carkeek was seen to advantage in the Cor
nish style. He threw his man by the fore
hip in the third bout in the eighth round,
but it was obtained by the back grip. The
decision was disputed. The men then
played in catch-a -catch-can style, and
thematch was the finest and best contested
ever seenin the west of England. 1t was
fair exhibition of skill and strength from
| the beginning So evenly We're the men
matched, that time would not permit of its
being finished. The play will be resumed
this evening, and the winner of the catch
as-catch- can style will be the winner of
| the match.

the night of and previous to the murder OF
the doctor. This conflicts with this morn.
ing's confession in which he says he played
cards all that evening. When asked why
he told this last story after having told SO
many others, Woodruff replied, wen, L
was promised the influence of a great paper
in my behalf"
The police to-day dug up an acre of
ground near the foot of Graceland avenue
in a search for Cronin's medical instru-
ments, but found nothing.
The Times people tonight deny that any
improper promises were ever made to
Woodruff. He was told, they say, that
they would do whatever they could for him
if he told the truth. To Times reporter
who asked Woodruff to explain the dis
crepancy in his statements about his age,
Woodruff explained that it was proposed
Fenian raid in 1875 that he had reference
to. He then said, 81 will be thirty years
old to morrow"
The Times will publish statement from
Mic Haully, saloon keeper mentioned in
confession. Haully says he has been in
the pay of Police Lieutenant Schuttler for
two weeks to aid in the search for the
murderers. He says his sister told him
that Woodruff was called out of the saloon
one day when he (Haully) was absent and
paid some money by man who, she IS sat
isfed, was Alexander Sullivan. This re-
veals another apparent discrepancy in the
confession, as Woodruff had it, that after
leaving Haully's saloon with Williams,
Sullivan met them and paid the money to
Williams.

A STIR IN DIPLOMATIC CIRCLES.
The Report Concerning the Agreement About
Selling Vessels in Behring Sea.

Especial to THE HERAI.D--Examiner Dispatch. ]
WASHINGTON, June 17.-No little COM
ment was INDUCED in in diplomatic circles
yesterday over the announcement in an
Ottawa dispatch that Mr.. S. H Webb, of
British Columbia, had information to the eff
ect that England and the United States have
come to an understanding in accordance
with which no seizures of British vessels
will be made in Behring sea this season.
There is the highest official authority for
the counter statement that the foregoing is
wholly without foundation. A year ago,
when the revenue cutters the Rush and
the Bear were fitting out at San Francisco
for their annual cruise in Behring sea,
Secretary Fairchild mailed to their cap
tains the customary orders to seize all yes
sells of whatever nationality that might
be engaged in the unlawful capturing
of fur seals. A short time after these
orders went forward, Secretary Bayard
drew up a letter of instructions to the COM
manders of the two cruisers which, with
Secretary Fairchild's permission, was dis
patched in time to reach them before sail
ing. They were instructed, however, not
to open the letter until they had gone to
sea. When they did so they discovered
that the second orders neutralized the first,
inasmuch as in them they were commanded
to make no seizures of English vessels
pending negotiations between this country
and Great Britain for peaceful settlement
Of the entire question. The result was
that no captures were made last year This
summer but one order has been issued, and
that was to seize all vessels engaged in the
illicit killing of seals, whether they fly the
English, American or any other flag.

OTTAWA, June lit is reported here
that the Canadian government has i'm

the Behring sea difficulty, and suggests
that the British ambassador to the United
States be instructed to learn from the Wash
ington government whether it is willing to
agree to the appointment of an internal
commission to inquire into the question of
the seal fisheries of Alaska. The govern
ment here is of the opinion that the question
of the right of the United States to exclusive
privileges in Behring sea could be sat
isfactorily gone into to be decided by such
commission that the report of such com
mission to the legislat Ire of both countries
would be of incalculable value tending to-
ward final settlement

Inc EfraJlc Gentleman from t1Orlua Tells q
Most Woeful Tale.
Especial to THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Dispatch. !
New YORK, June 1.-THE World to-day
publishes long letter from ex-senator
Jenes, of Florida, explaining his erratic
behavior when he left the Senate in the
summer of 1885. 1t is an incoherent screed
from first to last. Jones reviews his own
life; his birth in Ireland; his career as
mechanic and lawyer; and his election
twice to the Senate. He says the dominant
passion of his life was his devotion to his
wife, home and children, but his enemies
plotted to strike him through them. Let
tiers addressed to him fell into his wife's
hands, as intended, and she died broken
hearted. Then the conspirators tempted
his second son to stay out late hours, and
revelry killed his boy While the Senator's
brain was weakened by sorrow a handsome
Massachusetts heiress enthralled him. He
was condemned because of being Cath
Ollie, but he once attended a Unitarian ser
vice with her. Finally, she proved false.
The blow terribly depressed him. He then
went to Detroit, where, he says, Rev.
Father O'Reilly, treasurer of the land
league, made him acquainted with a charm
ing young lady. This was a part of the
conspiracy, he says, to wound him through
his sensitive affections and love of home
and comfort, the lady finally jilting him.
He claims that all these misfOrtuneS came
from Irishmen who hated him because he
was not an extremist. The whole letter is
vague and disiointed.
