HALLS CASE.
One of His Victims Likely to Cause His
Early Arrest.

One of His Victims Likely to Cause His
Early Arrest.
Though none of the chief sufferers by
John C. Halls cupidity have as yet taken
steps to bring him to the bar for his crimes
he is not likely to 90 much longer "un-
whipped of justice" Late Saturday after
noon he was interviewed by Morris Windt,
the South San Francisco tanner, whom he
defrauded of $1,000. The interview was
stormy one, and resulted in Windt'S an
nouncement that he would prosecute Hall
both civllly and criminally unless settle
ment was effected Immediately. AS this
cannot be done unless the culprits relatives
come to his aid-and, so far, they are I'M
derstood to have refused observation-disclosures
is every reason TO believe that the strong
arm OF the law viii be invoked in his case
before the week is much Older.
Since the expose very little sympathy has
been wasted upon the defauiter, as it is
pretty well known that lie could at one
time, had he so wished, returned all of his
stealiugs in full and retained handsome
profit for himself out of lucky Investment
in stocks, but his cupidity was only sharp
ened bv his temporary success and he kept
on until everything was lost. As the story
OF his wrong doing goes, he first commenced
to use the money intrusted to his care in
1882 In four years he had Squandered $3.50
coo, ana saw ruin staring him in the face,
when a lucky rise in stocks put quarter of
a million in his grasp. One and all of his
friends advised him to sell, but he would
not, and in a very little while he lost the
opportunity of redeeming himself, by the
sudden decline in values which followed the
great boom.
This incident in his career shows that
there is very little sincerity in the statement
that he kept on stealing with view to
eventually restoring the funds taken from
his victims, out Of the profits of his invest
ments.

UNION LEAGUE.
1t Proposes to Build New Clubhouse
Union Square.

1t Proposes to Build IA New Clubhouse
on Union Square.
The Union League Club, which has had
under consideration for some months past
the erection of commOdious home of their
own, has at length decided favorably on the
proposition, and will no doubt take action
on the matter at the next meeting of the
board.
In view of the fact that official action has
not yet been taken by the club, the full par
ticulars of the undertaking are not yet made
public, but it is an open secret that site
has been selected facing Union square, and
that Il building of unique design will proba-
bly, be erected upon it. There is 4 strong
suggestion of the old English style of archi-
lecture in the proposed plan, with its Curl
Gus gables and odd-looking windows. 1t
will be iive-storv structure, 50 feet front

rooms ON the main floor; assembly, billiard
rooms and sideboard on the floor above 3;
library, reading and writing rooms on the
third floor; bedrooms on the fourth and
dlning-rOom and kitchen on the top floor.
Each floor will be intersected by broad halls
well lighted and ventilated, and every pro-
vision will be made for the comfort of visit
ing and resident members in the way of ele-
yatorS, bathrooms, smokng-rooms, etc.
If the club ratities the action OF its Build
ing Committee, work will be begun immedi-
ately, so that possession may be taken of the
new quarters in November next.

Nearly all the residents Of Kingston look
upon the openng of the exhibition as mark
ing the beginning of long era of progress
and prosperity They were particularly
anxious that the United States should take
an especially active interest in the great
project, for, although the colonial residents
OF Jamaica are loyal to the British crown,
they know too well the value of American
capital TO any section of the world in which
II Is invested, to put single straw in the
way of its approach to their gem of an
Island. Hence their great vexaton at the
failure of our Government to take any
notice Of the project which has filed their
minds and hearts for so long time.

Perhaps it has been due to pardonable
and absorbing interest in our own approach
ing Worlds Fair or, perhaps, we are, alter
all, too busy and r little too selfish TO give
much thought 70 even the biggest projects OF
our next door neighbors, for certain IL Is
that while the people of the island OF ia
maica are talking of little else than thelr
great International Exhibition, now on the
eve of Its opening, and while most OF the
Governments, not alone of Central and
South America, but of Europe and ASA as
well, have gone to some trouble and expense
to be officially represented there the United
States Government has for some reason, OF
it may be through negligence alone, failed
to officially recognize in any way the ia
maica Worlds Fair. and but for the per-
sistent work of British and Colonial repre-
sentatives in New York its opening on the
9th OF this month would probably be un-
marked by n single exhibit from this
country. A naval squadron, under Adj
mlral Gheraril, has gone down To Kingston
Bay, but that Is probably 10 meet there the
squadrons OF other countries and out of conf
pliment also to Prince George OF Wales,
who is to formally open the exhibition.
Not another sign from this Government to
indicate its recognition of the fact that an
International industrial and manufacturing
exhibition is TO be in progress for several
months at its southernmost doors, and yet
it is not for lack of pressing invitation that
we find ourselves out OF our neighbours big
fair. Fully year ago committee for the
United States, composed of resident En-
glSh and West India officials and business
men, was Termed and a New York head
quarters was established in the Stewart
Building, on Broadway, with Mr.. Thomas
Amor, the English Secretary TO the COM
mittee, in charge. Glowing circulars an
nOunced that the Chairman of the United
States committee was William Lane Booker,
Esq, c. Nj. g., her Britannia Majesty's Con
sul-General at New Y York. AMI that the Vice
Chairman was William Robert Hoare, Esq,
her Britannia Majesty's Consul at New
York. Pr minent New York representa-
tives of Jamaica steamship, railroad and
banking companies made up the rest Of tile
committee.
Their business was largely 10 furnish in-
formation to prospective exhibitors, but
chiefly at the start to obtain from the United
States an official acceptance of the invita-
ton 10 be represented at the fair. That
seemed to be a matter of easy accomplish
