quill Ecuador, says municipal elections

ical feuds, which have caused intense ex-
element and at length led to bloodshed.

upon the populace and wounded several
persons. Tho action Of the police created
great excitement aud further trouble is

Make q Treaty which Will End the
Behring Sea Seal Fisheries Dispute,
In the hearing OF the Behring Sea fish,
cries case In the United States supreme
court at Washington, Solicitor General
Taft let fall some hints that the dispute
between this country and Great Britain
had been settled through negotiations.
Then. thinking he had given out govern
ment secrets, he hesitated In saying any
thing more when requested to do so by
Justice Gray. Attorney-G General Miller
then interposed and not only substantiated
all that the solicitor-generM had said, but
announced that the government had eff
fected an agreement This was practically
the first announcement made as TO the pro-
gress OF the Behring Sea negotiations since
the last correspondence was made public.
The correspondence between Secretary
Blaine and Lord Salisbury resulted In
treaty which only needs TO be ratified by
the senate, when Secretary Blaine declined
TO mako any statement on the subject
The president will submit to the senate an
agreement in the nature of treaty between
the United States and Great Britain by
which the parties bind themselves to &C
cept final and conclusive the definition to
be given by arbitrators of the exact right
OF the United States in Behrlng Sea as
well as to pay any awards OF damages
suffered by the nation that is declared 10
have had the true contention. 1t Is pre-
sumed that arbitrator have been selected,
but none of the officials seen would discuss
the details of the agreement, doubtless for
tho reas on that it has TO be submitted to
the senate for ratification and therefore
comes under the executive session rules Of
the senate, which requires secrecy to be
observed.

thing, however. Fireman AveriIl and
Conductor Tucker are positive that
there were only two men who did the
Job and not six or more, as origi-
nally stated. The two combination
safes were found to be intact, and had
been left behind by the robbers. They
were evidently frightened away before
they had chance to blow the safes
open. A quantity of nitro glycerine
which they also left behind and which
was found near the spot, would
have been sufficient to open ten more
safes equally as strong. One of them
was consigned to Minneapolis and the
other TO Milwaukee. The third, which
the daring men compelled Messenger
Murphy to open for them, contained
money and Jewelry. aggregating about
$4,000. Conductor Tucker, while the
robbers went through ths contents of
the safe, secured revolver from
the cOlored sleeping car porter and
fired 1t at the men. The cartridge did
not explode, and he then entered the
baggage car, where he broke open a gun
case and loaded the gun with buckshot
cartridges. Meantime the robbers or
dered the engineer to move the train
and bloOdshed was averted. Claim
Agent Barr believes the robbery to
have been the work of Chicago crooks.

with the Boston League club. The
Boston association club was pennant
winner as well as the league club of
that city, and its supporters, it is
claimed, Outnumber the league parti-
sans. In Philadelphia the situation is
equally distressing. The owners have
gone to great expense in securing such
league stars as Richardson and Common,
and they are not likely TO consent to be
swallowed up by the league. All indi-
cations point to q verdict of the league
to meet the association half way, adopt
an equitable basis for the disposition of

schedules.
