Corunna was treated to somewhat Of a
sensation last week in the arrest of Francis
r. Boselly, a lawyer of that city. Boselly,
who was agent for Cincinnati parties, had
loaned money for them receiving mortgage
on lands located in Rush township. The
| lands i'm question, it Is said, are located in
what is known as the "Big Huckleberry
Marsh" and were represented to be worth
$1,000. Boselly is said to have personally
inspected the property and had affidavits
from others as to the value of the land.
Upon these representations $1,000 were
loaned. The mortgages now charge their
agent Boselly and the mortgageors with OBJ
| tanning money under false pretenses. 1t is
upon these lands that there has been built
the immense barns, silos and buildings nee
essary for running large dairy farm. The
land upon which these building are located
are said, hawever, not to be included in the
mortgage. The papers in the case We're
issued by the U. S. District Court in De-
treit where the parties implicated have been
taken. Alonzo Ackley, who owned the
land, was also arrested. This week DR.. w.
C.. Hume and DR.. Bailey were arrested on
charge of having made false affldavits as to
the value of the land. All the parties claim

Why do not the railway officers enforce

rear, was asked as crowd was struggling
to get in and out of the rear door of a car at

Some one replied that there was no power
to enforce the rule and that it had been

another, 1t would be great convenience If
it were rigidly enforced. That is so, said
in answer, prominent railway official, but
you do not know the preversity of the aver

THE PROTOCOL SIGNED.
Self Government Assured to Samoa Un-
der q Joint PrOtectorate-The Treaty
Now Awaits the senate's Action.

BERLIN, June 15.-The Samoan agree
ment has been signed. The American
delegates having withdrawn the princi-
pal objections they had raised to the
agreement previously reached, it was
only necessary for the plenipotentiaries
to make some unimportant notifications
in the wording of the draft of the treaty
before it was ready to receive the sigma
lures of the delegates of the contracting
nations
The treaty guarantees an autonomous
administration to the Samoan islands
under the joint control of Germany and
America. with England acting as arbi-
traitor in the event of differences arising
between the joint controlling powers.
The SamOans Will Rule Themselves.
The Samoans are to elect their own
king, a viceroy, and are to be represen-
tatives in a senate composed of the
principal chiefs, and a chamber of rep
sentatives 10 be elected by all the peO-
pie. The government so constituted
will have the right of levying duties of
every kind.
The treaty also provides that the
Germans whose property was destroyed
during the recent conflicts on the islands
shall be Unidentified by the Samoan
government for their losses. A special
court is TO be appointed to take cogni-
zance of the land question on the islands.
The Americans signed ConditiOnaIy.
The American adhesion to the agree
ment is made conditionally and will
only become absolute upon the ratif-
cation of the treaty by the United States
senate. In view of this necessary delay
the plenipotentiaries have reached an
understanding that until December next
the status quo shall be maintained.
Count Herbert Bismarck left for a
three weeks holiday to Koenigstein,
among the Taumis mountains, and Mr..
William Walter Phelps sails for New

probably resulted in second negro meet
ing. At any ratio there was one held in the
same city on Wednesday night. At this

was entirely different from that OF the
speeches made at the first meeting. The
participants. though nearly oil negroes,
seemed 10 realize that blood is thicker
than water, and that IL once the negro
dynamitard began his work amongst white
men the whole negro population would be
exterminated. Rev. W. II. PHILLIPS said:

which the colored people were laborlng

Vast V,rr,nin,s Governor.

Governor Wilson has issued proclama-
tion calling special session of the Lesis-
lature 10 convene the third Wednesday III
january. He has performed this duty
none too soon. He has now held the Office
of Governor for nearly twelve months more
than the term for which he was elected
held il, of course, rs he felt he was IN duty
bound to do in obedience TO the constitu-
tional requirement that, besides his four
years term. he should hold it until his
successor was elected and qualified.
We do not know Governor Wilson'S OBJ
feet in converting the Legislature at so late
y dag. A committee of the Legislature has
been ready for some time, SO it is under
stood, 20 report that A. Il. FLEMING was in
November. 1883, duly elected Governor Of
West Virginia over NATHAN Corr. As the
Democrats have but one majority in the
Legislature on joint ballot democrats 4G,
Republicans "A. Labor ~ FLEMING and his
Democratic supporters can never feel that
the danger of defeat is overpast until they

ther.
Under the Constitution Of Virginia the
Governor can convene the Legislature
at his pleasure. but cannot confne its de-
alterations or action within any limits. He
must take the risk of having bad rs well
rs good legislation. But under the Consti-
tuition Of West Virginia the Governor in
his proclamation converting the Legisla-
ture specifies what subjects of legislation
or legislative action may be brought before
that body. Governor WILSON has no doubt
performed this duty also. but we have at
present no information as the limits within
which he has directed the General Assem-
bly, 10 eonfne itself
