England Appoints Two Agents to Gather
Information on the Seal Question.
LONDON, June 24.-Sir George Baden
Powell, X. G. M. g., member of parlia-
ment for the Kirkdale division Of Liver
pool, and Mr.. w. Dawson, of the Cana
dian survey department, have been ap-
pointed arbitrators in the Behring sea
reference decided upon between the gov
ernment of the United States and the
government of Great Britain. Mr..
Ashley Froude, son of the historian, has
been appointed secretary of the commits
sion 1t is expected the first meeting of
the board of arbitration will take place
in October. The British members of
the board will meet almost Immediately
at Ottawa, whence they will proceed to
Vancouver island, B. c., with the inten-
ton of spending two months on board
man-Ofwar cruising in Behring sea,
visiting the Prebyloff island and all the
principal stations frequented by sealers.
At the expiration of their cruise it is
expected that the British arbiters will
be sufficiently well acquainted with the
details of the seal hunting business and
with the needs and interests of the seal
ers to be able to meet the American ar
biters as experts.
The Times says that the appointments
will be received with general satisfac-
ton both in England and in Canada
The Times adds that 1.-The American
commissioners, doubtless, will be equally
qualified and the subject will have every
chance of being settled in an honorable
and peaceful manner, with full knowl-
edge on both Sides"

The Position Of John Bull shown in

A Battle Probable at COquimbO.
NEW YORK, June 24.-The Herald's
Iquique special says the cruiser Almi-
rante Lynch, of the government feet,
recently collected duty ON a cargo of
nitrate at Tocopilla, which had been
carried there by British vessel. The
British minister was notified of the
matter and made vigorous protest to
Balmaceda against the payment of the
duties. The matter will probably be
settled by the return of the money col
lected, as was recently done in the case
of a German vessel.
The British government is showing in
every possible way, without actual re-
sort to arms, that it is in sympathy with
the insurgents. This is having decided
influence on the struggle now raging.
COq1imbo's Position.
A battle is likely to occur at Coquimbo
at any moment. The insurgents have
surrounded the town and have probably
already begun the attack. The issue is
awaited at Iquique with the keenest in
terest.

MoBRIsTowN, Tenn, June 24.--Jep
Wolf and his 10-year-old son, with
Willie Carpenter, were on last Thursday
night, at Bray's postoffice, a hamlet In
Hancock county, to do some shopping.
Wolf had had some trouble with Henry
McBray, and the fight was renewed
during the day. SoTne of MeBray's
friends took hand, and while Carpen-
ter was held to prevent his interfering,
others attacked Woke. After knocking
him senseless they allowed McBray to
beat the fallen man with the butt end Of
shot gun. AS he was supposed to be
dead, Wolf was left lying in the woods,
but he recovered and received some
crude attention. In the evening he
started home with his son and Car
penter
AS they did not appear at their homes
Sunday morning searching party WAS
sent out, and near barn of McBray,
two miles from the postoffice, the dead
bodies of Wolf and Carpenter were
found in the road. Between and partly
under them was the unconscious form
of the little boy. All three had been
shot McBray, armed and surrounded
by friends, was found at his house. He
did not deny the shooting, but an
nounced that he would annihilate the
Wolf family.
The dead were taken to their late
homes, and Mrs. Wolf, who is sister of
Carpenters sent here for aid. Several
of her friends, heavily armed, have gone
to the scene. Neither Carpenter nor
Wolf were armed. A bloody war b
feared,

CHICAGO, June PAN. Richardot, n
wealthy Frenchman who for ten years
has lived in Madagascar, is in the city
after long tour through the mining
regions of the west His visit to Amer
lea is one of great Importance to the
island. Ten years ago the French COM
pany which operated the comparatively
little known placer gold mines of NADIA
gascar became bankrupt. M. Richardot
and l.. Suberbie represented the COM
pany and succeeded, after much negotia-
ton, in securing from the queen Of Mad
agascar very valuable concessions
Today they practically control the gold
mines of Madagascar, and the visit of
Richardot to the United States is for the
purpose of studying American mining
methods and machinery. On his re-
turn the gold mine will be rapidly de-
veloped on IA scale that will, he thinks,
bring about great commercial changes.
He will be able to accomplish this at
comparative little cost, rs he says labor
is paid at the rate of eight cents day
and is drug on the market. While in
this country M, Richardot has visited
all the important mines.

HOUSTON, Tex, June 24.--William
Caldwell, who assassinated DR.. Sham
bin in Fort Bond county in August, 1888,
and whose case has been once before the
United States supreme court and twice
before the court Of appeals, was SEN
fenced Monday to be hanged in private
ON July 81.
DIR. Shamblin was shot one night
while reading the Bible to his family.
Caldwell's conviction was on circum-
stantial evidence. The murder was the
first of series which eliminated in the
pitched battle between the. Jay birds and
Woodpeckers in the streets of Rich
mond, and resulted in the death of the
sheriff and several citizens on each side.
Another strange thing is that nearly all
the leaders of both these political fac
tions have since died sudden or violent
deaths.

The preparations for this race have
been watched with the keenest interest,
as many people believe it will be the last

not the hallucination of diseased minds.
Both men went coolly to work preparing
for trip which may cost them their
lives, and, strange to say, after calmly
calculating all the chances against them,
are confident of successfully accomplish
ing it.
The voyage is not simply for pleasure;
it means great deal more to these men
who are willing to sacrifice the COM
forts and enjOyments of home to brave
the numberless hardships and dangers
of the deep If successful, it will bene-
fit both of them greatly in financial
way. Both of them have crossed the
ocean before in small boats. Another
