The United States Authorities Anx-

The United States Authorities Anx-
ious to Get Him.
BEssEMER. MICH, Sept. 3.-The coro-
ner held an inquest yesterday on the body
of MIR. Fleishbein of Beileville, ILL.,, who
was killed by Holzhay, the stage robber.
The jury found a verdict in accordance
with the evidence, and recommended that
Holzhay be held to the next term of court.
This will be in October. but a complication
has arisen since the inquest.
WANTED BY THE UNITED STATES.
United States Agent Pulsifer arrived
here and claimed the prisoner on behalf of
the United States. His demand was made
on the supposition based on the prisoners
confession that Holzhay had robbed the
United States mail on the Wisconsin Cen
trsl railroad. The authorities here will not
listen to this claim. The prosecuting at
torney claims that he has a certain case
against the murderer, and that he can send
him down for life. On the other hand it is
said that the killing is manslaughter at the
most, and the possible punishment is limited
to fourteen years.

PICKING OUT THE JURY.
THE FIRST BIG TASK IN THE GRO
MIN CASE BEGUN.

The Court Admits Five of the Oues-
tioEs Suggested by the Defense
Only Three Were Admitted at First,
but the Defense Catches the State
in Trap.
CHICAGO, Ill, Sept. 3.-Immediately
upon the opening of the Cronin trial this
morning the discussion upon the proper
questions to be submitted to the Jurors was
resumed.
Gentlemen" said the court, "before the
state Is asked to respond to the propositions
that were submitted by the defense yester-
day, l wish to say that have examined
those questions myself very carefully and
find that number of them are practically
duplicates, and there are certain ones that
l could not permit. as l deem them i'm
proper, believing the whole matter any
way to be very largely discretionary with
the court.
THREE QUESTIONS ALLOWED.
u should like to say simply that these
three questions should be permitted:
i. Have you formed an opinion as to
whether DIR. Cronin was taken to the Carl
son )ttage by horse and buggy engaged
| by Daniel Coughlin from Dinan, the livery
| man?
Z. Have you an opinion as TO whether
or not Martin Burke. one Of the defendants,
was tenant of said Carlson cottagep
3. Have you an opinion that the so
called Clan-na-Gael society is in any way
TO blame for the death of DR.. CroninPn
AN INDIAN CASE CITED.

cited case where murder was committed

If he believed that an Indian had committed
the crime. The juror said he did, but the
court held that he was proper Juror.
The discussion finally settled that these
three questions would be the ones asked of
the Jurors who have read the ewspaper
| reports.
| TRIUMPH FOR THE DEFENSE.
All of the defendants save one exception,
but this was contested by Mr.. Ingham, who
said That the defense ought to ask the ques-
| tion and then take exception. There
might arise conditions" said he, when we
might not object
The state has then admitted our VIII Die
point, said Mr.. Forest of the counsel for
the defense, triumphautly.
TWO MORE QUESTIONS ADMITTED.
Judge Mcconnell finally admitted the ad-
dition Of these two questions: "Have you
| formed an opinion as to whether tne death
Of DR.. Cronin was the result of a CON
spiracy"' and ''Haye you formed an opin-
| ion as to whether any of thesg defendants
was member of said conspiracy
The panel was then called, aud the law
yers entered upon the long and arduous
task of selecting jury.

the defense, but two OF them were peremp.
toriIy challenged by the state and ex
cused. The remaining two were held
| over until tomorrow, and il
| is possible that the state may
conclude to accept one or even both of these
| gentlemen. No definite progress, therefore,
in the selection of the Jurors has been
made thus far, and the prospects are that a
| full jury will not be secured unit, the per-
emptory challenges of both sides are ex-
hausted and legal disqualifcations become
the only pretext for rejecting juror.

CAPT KELLoaGs PRISONERS.
The Attorney General Decides That
They Can't Be Held.


WASHINGTON. Sept 3.-Capt. Kellogg,
commanding the United States steamship
Ossipee, now at Newport News, has been
ordered to release the two seamen whom he
rescued from Arenas Key, Yucatau, some
weeks ago. These men, together with a
third man, were abandoned on that island
by the schooner Anna. When the Ossipee ar
rived, one Of the men was dead, and the sur
rounding circumstances pointed to homicide.
Upon the return Of the vessel to New Y York
report was sent to the department, and
the men were held in custody pending
action by the authorities This captain of
the schooner, an American, was exonerated
from all blame, and the question then
arose, was there sufficient ground for the
prosecution of the survivors for homi-
cider
REPORT OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.
The report was referred to the depart
ment Of justice for an opinion by the Attor-
ney General, who decided that no prosecu-
ton could follow. In the first place there
was evidence that the man had been killed
in self-defense and then, again, whether or
not murder had been committed, the United
States would have no jurisdiction over the
case, as the crime occurred in foreign
boundaries.

A BLAZE ON a SHIP.
The Vessel Beached on Governors
Island and Saved.

NEW YORK, Sept. 3-Early this morn
ing fire was discovered in the hold of the
ship Bay of Naples, lying oil Bedloe's
island and bound for Rangoon, India, with
a cargo af Kerosene oil. The Bay Of Naples
is a British ship, commanded by Capt.
Thompson The vessel cleared for Rangoon
yesterday. A police boat patrol, in answer
to blue lights burned on the Bay of Naples,
proceeded at once to go alongside. The
sudden extingulshing of the HIGHT prevented 4
the patrol from coming up With the ship.
The tug Leader, on her way to Philadel-
phia, saw the danger signals and ran along
side. So did the tug Charm.
BEACHED ON GOVERNORS ISLAND.
Both towed the burning ship down to
Governors island and beached her. The
crews of the ship and the tugs did all they
could to eXtinguish the flames raging in the
hold, but they made but little progre ~.
Meanwhile the patrol found the Bay Of Ma
Piles and sent a number of men ON board
who ran hoss>on board aud into the hold.
-Four powerful streams were soon pouring
on the burning OIL The flames succeeded
in bursting out through the decks and we're
lIckIAg Une masts. Half an hours work by
the patrols men sufficed TO put 16 feet of
water in the ships hold and etfectually ex-
tinguished the flames.
THE LOSS.
The Bay of Naples is still aground. She
is full rugged ship and is probably worth
$4,000. The cargo is insured in number
of companies. The vessel will have to be
docked before the actual extent of the dam
age is known. The origin of the fire is said
to have been spontaneous combustion.

The Band VIII Not Be Removed from
Alabama for the Present.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.-It is not probable
that the war department will take any steps
in the matter Of removing the band of
Apaches from Mount Vernon barracks,
Alabama. Secretary Proctor said this
morning that there is a mandatory statute
providing for the confinement of these
Indians at some government barracks, and
there is no better place than where they
now are. The Indian Rights As
sociation has made a proposition to
purchase a large tract of land in
North Carolina to which the Indians could
be removed, and where they could live
in partial freedom, headed by that old
warrior, Geronimo, but Secretary Proctor
is not disposed to act until he sees the pur-
chase consum mated. In fact it would seem
that he is inclined to think that the tribe is
pretty well cared for now
