Chain of Circumstantal Evidence Against
"Frenchy No. L" as the Murderer of the
Woman shakespeare" in the East River
House, New York.
NEW YORK, April 80. - Inspector
Byrnes this afternoon substantiated the
story given out this morning as to the
identity of the Ripper. The inspector
does not say positively that Frenchy
No. 1 is the murderer, but he gave a
strong chain of circumstantial evidence
that leaves no doubt but that he has
the man who committed the atrocious
crime. He discovered. he said. that
Frcnchy was with the woman ''Shakes-
peare" on Wednesday night and slept
with her in the East River house. Dur
ing the following day he was in her
company nearly all day. On Thursday
night about midnight shakespeare"
left the bar-room where she and
Frenchv were drinking, and a little
later she was seen to go upstairs with
a strange man. Soon afterward
Frenchy asked for a room and was as
signed to one directly opposite that oc-
cupied by shakespeare.
When Frenchy was arrested he had
on no underclothing. He wore a coarse
shirt Il pair of dirty trousers and a
pair of filthy socks. Blood was dis
covered on the shirt. On the floor
of the hallway between the room occu-
pied by the Brown woman and Frenchy,
several spots of blood were discovered.
On the inside of the door of Frenchy's
room were blood stains. The blanket
in the room had clots of blood upon it.
as if a person had wiped his hands
upon it.
The inspector says Frenchy No. was
arrested early Sunday morning, but it
was discovered that he had spent the
night at place nearly five miles dis
tant.

Gus prisoner was taken before District

Ex-senator Blair Called Back to WASH
ington by Secretary Blaine-He May Go
to Japan.
CHICAGO, May 1. - Ex-senator
Blair's dispatch from Secretary Blaine
was not in the nature of a recall 1t
simply requested the senator to post
pone his journey and to leave for Wash
ington at once for conference. He
left via the Baltimore & Ohio limited
at p. M, and will have an interview
with Mr.. Blaine on Saturday morning.
He is not at all disturbed about the
latest developments, but says the Chi
nese government has made the mis-
take of endeavoring to judge his
views and opinions with press
clippings as material, instead of taking
the Congressional Record. He has never
sand anything, he says, that would re-
fleet on the Chinese as a nation. What
ever views he may have expressed in
congress were directed against the
denominations of Chinatown in San
Francisco and undesirable immigrants.
When asked whether the report that
he had been offered the mission to
Japan as a substitute for China was
true, he declined to say anything, but
his manner indicated the belief that he
could have it if he wished.

TIE PRESIDENTS TRIP.

An Early Morning Airing Over the Fa-

A Splendid Reception at Monterey
Drives to Points of Historic Interest.
DEL MONTE, Cal. May 1.-The presi-
dent and members of his party rose
early yesterday morning and drove over
the famous sixteen-mile drive, of which
the people of the state are SO proud.
Upon the return OF the party they were
escorted to Monterey by a large dele
CATION from Monterey, Salinas and
Pacific Grove. A splendid reception
awaited the party at Monterey. They
We're met by Il large delegation of
school children who strewed their path
with flowers and led the way to the
school house, where the public exer-
cises We're held.
Mayor Hill of Salinas delivered the
address of welcome, and on behalf of
Salinas presented the president with
solid silver card containing an engrav-
ing of the old custom house inscribed
as follows: ''Old custom house. where
the first American flag was raised IN
1916: greeting to our president, April
80. 1891
The president, Postmaster-Gcneral
cred brief speeches, which were loudly

RECIPROCITY WITH CUBA.

The Agreement Arrived at by Gen. Foster
and the Spanish Government in Rela-
ton to Reciprocal Trade Relations with
Cuba in the Hands of Secretary Bl-ine.
WASHINGTON, May 3.-The Spanish
agreement just negotiated by Special
Commissioner Foster at Madrid, is in
the hands of Secretary Blaine. Mr..
Foster, who arrived here yesterday
morning, called at Secretary Blaine's
house shortly before noon and with
him went carefully over the proposed
agreement. Secretary Blaine, however,
said yesterday afternoon that he could
say nothing whatever on the subject of
the treaty, which is of such a nature as
to preclude publication until the presI-
dent shall have had look at it. He
also declined to state whether or
not the document was a treaty or an
agreement under the recent tariff law.
This is an important point to be de-
termined, inasmuch as a treaty would
have to go to the senate for ratifca-
ton and would therefore run the
chances of rejection, whereas the tariff
agreement such as those that have been
made with the South American coun-
tries can be put into operation at once
Wy VI ny VIC
president 1t is generally thought that
it is an agreement of this sort. since this
form of international arrangement has
all the effect of formal treaty with
none of it's disadvantages.
1t might also be noted that the only
imports into the United States that can
be Affected by an agreement under the
tariff act are hides, sugar and coffee.
1t is understood that Spain made a
strong effort with Commissioner Fos-
ter to insure the extension of the rec
iprocity privileges to tobacco but he
was competed to refuse under the terms
of the act. which includes only the
staples named above. Tobacco could
have been included in the agreement,
to be sure, but that would have made
the act subject to rat fcation or rejec-
ton by the senate, with the probabili-
ties largely on the side of the letter.
1t is believed that Mr.. Fosters prelim-
mary report was highly satisfactory to
Secretary Blaine.

SUBSIDIARY COIN.
Circular Issued by United States Treasurer

Subsidiary Coin.

Circular Issued by United States Treasurer
Nebeker in Reference to Carrying Out
Secretary Fosters Plan of Distributing
Subsidiary Coin.
WASHINGTON, May 3.-Treasurer Ne
belzer, carrying out Secretary Fosters
plan of distributing subsidiary coin
throughout the United States, yester-
day afternoon issued the following cir
cular: The coinage of standard silver
dollars authorized by the act of Feb
ruary rs, 1873, having been discontin-
ued by the act of July IA, 1890, the
treasurer finds it inconvenient to furn-
ish them otherwise than in redemption
of silver certificates or treasury notes.
but will forward silver half dollars,
quarter dollars, or dimes, to any adj
dress, free of cost for transporta-
ton, by express in sums of $500 or
more, or by registered mail in
packages of $40, in exchange for any
kind of money deposited in the treas
ury, any subtreasury or depository
bank. Remittances for this purpose
will be received by the treasurer and
the assistant treasurers in the form of
drafts on any bank or banker in Wash
ington. New York. Boston, Philadel-
phia, Baltim ore, Cincinnati, Chicago,
st. Louis, New Orleans or San Fran
cisco.
Under the former practice no sums of
smaller amount than $500 was shipped
by the treasury department. The idea
of Secretary Foster is to give small
towns the same facilities as the cities
for obtaining fractional silver.
