SIDNEY CLARKE TALKS.

Sidney Clarke the prominent Oklahoma
statesman, was in the city yesterday. He
had just arrived from Washington and
talked Interestingly on Oklahoma matters
TO a reporter for the EAGLE. On the Chero-
kee strip matter. Mr.. Clark said that there
was a considerable doubt that the Chero-
kee strip treaty would he ratified At this
session Of congress aud if it was, it would
be at the very last.
The main objections to this treaty is the
indisposition of the present congress to
make any large appropriations. The
Cherokee treaty calls for s. 800, 0o0
There are several minor matters in
cluded in the treaty which viii probably
cause controversy. One of these is pro-
vision tina: in the Cherokee tribe. the
Cherokee courts shall have supreme juris-
dictjon. Secretary Noble objects to this
and states his opposition in the message
transmitting the document TO congress.
MIR Clarke says there is no truth in the
stories that the ratification o. the strip
treaty is being Systematically opposed by
the Cattlemen aud the Cherokee delega-
ton. The Cherokee delegates are very
anxious for the ratification. If the treaty
is not ratified this session, it will have to
lie next a. il expires March 4. 1893
Another proviso is the seventy allot-
ments of eighty acres each which are TO be
given TO the settlers who had made i'm
provements on their squatter claims in the
strip before they were ordered off by the
president last year. This viii be attacked
and probably defeated.
The Kickapoo, Wichita and Nez Perces
agreements have never even GOT 50 far as
the committee aud VIII not be acted upoa
this session.
M Clarke states that the presidential
proclamation on the Cheyenne viii coma
"Wednesday o. Thursday aud he makes the
prediction that there viii be 5000 people
Inside the Cheyenne and Arapahoe country
inside OF two months.
Mr. Clarke viii return 10 Washington
tomorrow

THE ADAMS CASE.

The case of the United States against
Adams is now in the hands of the jury
and the probability is that the jury will
either hang or bring in verdict of man
slaughter a reporter visited the court
house this morning but the jury, having
failed TO agree, retired for the night. All
day yesterday was devoted to arguments
and the court room was crowded from
morning till the adjournment of the court.
Messrs. johnson and Ady, for the prosecu-
ton, made strong speeches, and SO did
Mr. Comfy and Mr.. Stanley for the de-
Tense It is almost unanimously conceded
that Mr. Stanley made the most powerful
speech ever made in the United States
court in this city. The instructions or the
court were fair and impartial. 1t is not
expected that verdict of murder will be
rendered; neither is IL expected that
Adams will be acquitted. His case lies,
in the opinion of local attorneys who have
given it their attention, between hung
jury and manslaughter; but then it is a
hard matter TO tell what jury will do.

WAS suggested here that no aiternates
were named and the committee suggested
the following named gentlemen:
L. D. Skinner. H. F. Goode, S. s. Kozad.
A. J. Myatt, a j. Weaver, c. A Van
Ness. John w. Adams, ". Tucker, Paul
Mellinger, James H. Moore, r. Q. Snyder,
S. NJ johns and c. A Whi5beck.
Johu Davis moved that COMMITTEES of
three be appointed to go after Colonel
Murdoch and while the convention was
waiting Colonel Haliowell made rousing
speech.
Upon concluding shouts for Murdoch
were again heard and some one brought
forward large portrait of the colonel
which again revived the enthusi-
asm OF the convention. Before
The cheers died away the original APP
peared IN the doorway, which was the
signal for another outburst Of applause,
the enter convention rising TO their
feet and cheering until one would think
the applause would rae the building to
its foundation Colonel Murdoch was
presented" by Colonel Haliowell who
said that an introduction in such place
would be out OF order owing 10 the gentle
Seigwick county. Colonel Murdoch made
a short speech which was full OF feeling IN
which he thanked the convention for the
great honor il had conferred upon him in
unanimously and enthusiastically endors
ing MS candidacy for governor of the great
state of Kansas He wound up by saying
it was by all means the greatest honor ever
accorded him.
Judge Wall was called and upon taking
the stand he made a ronsing speech con-
corning Republican politics which elected
loud cheers In closing he made some
reference to one of the committees and WAS
called to order. but he still kept on talking
aud made still further reference to the
chairman of the committee in question.
For some reason the convention thought
he referred 10 the chairman OF the couven-
ton instead Of the chairman Of the com
mittee and little excitement followed
which was attributed to the
zeal of the convention by Hon.
Rudolph Hatfield who made very
pleasant speech in which he acted the
peacemaker with good deal of clevernesS.
He successfully poured oil on the troubled
waters, and the convention adjourned
feeling good.
That wheel horse old Democrat John
Fisher was so carried away in the excite
ment that he thought for awhile he was in
a Democratic convention, and was actu-
ally about TO make speech when he was
called to order by Jim Dorsey, another
Democrat who sat near him.
Taking it all in all, the convention was
an enthusiastic one, and the unauimity
with which Colonel Murdoch was endorsed
would be considered grand tribute to
even James g. Blaine, as one of the dele
gates remarked.

BY the French Government.
PARIS, Nov. 4.-Colonel Dodds, the
comman der of the French forces operat-
ing in Dahomey, will be promoted to be
q general, and will be made an officer of
the Legion Of Honor. The chamber of
deputies will probably pass bill pro
viding for the striking of medal to

Mail advices received here show that
while the French gunboat Opale was re-
turning from Kobe, on Sept. 30, it was
suddenly attacked near Donkeli by 500
Dahomeyans armed with quick-hring
rifles. Three of the French on the gun
boat were killed and a numbr were
wounded. The Opale shelled the vii
lagos along the river. The next day
300 eharpshooters surprised DonReli.
The Dahomeans fled, leaving many dead
behind them.
Transports bearing invalids and
wounded French troops were arriving
ct the coast daily. The hospitals 81
Porto Novo were crowded, and vessels
in the roadstead had been chartered tc
accommodate the wounded.
A dispatch from Porto Novo states
that Dahomeyan chief who has beer
captured by the French, says that the
Dahomeyans are led by 200 white men
He gives the names of many Belgiani
and Germans.
The dispatch adds that after The
French capture. Abomey another king
will succeed Behanzin, who will be exc
cuted.

1.-THE MAID OF CABORACO."
A Woman Caused the determination {
tho Brave TomoCiliCans.

Ell PAso, Tex, Nov. "A letter
from Chihuahua gives the origin Of
trouble which led to the terrible battle
last week between the Mexican govern
snsnt a. follows: Some saesths beck a
young Mexican m alden called the "Maid
of Caboraco' was looked upon by the
Tomochicans as one possessed of super
natural powers. The woman, though
young in years, exhibited degree ct
endurance with the supplemented
Tomachicans which can shardly be con
ceivod. Her m ethods and the teachings
of the priest Of the Tomochic people
violated the civil law. In this they were
sustained by tho Maid of Caboraco. She
encouraged them in defying the law Of
the land. The result was that tho maid
was expelled from Mexican territory
and Is now living at Nogales, A. T., aud
known as Santa Teresea, while the
brave defenders Of TomOchic, save &
few prisoners, are lfeless and in Their
graves. Thus, another crime can be laid
at the door Of misplaced religious zeal
and fanatCism.

Diaz's side of the story.

CRY OF MEXICO, Nov. 4 .-President
Diaz says the trouble at Tom ochic was
not one Of taxes. The Indians refused to
recognize any authority except that Of
of the so-called giantess Colora. Gen
eral Rancel was sent with small force
to compel obedience, but the fanatical
Indians, relying on the aid Of their
saint, fought desperately AKA defeated
+ Rancel Then the government sent 600
soldiers against the Tomoohicans, who
had fewer than a hundred fighting men,
and lost forty-seven. The government
lost more than one hundred killed and
wounded. The affair was local and re-
ligious and ii IL now ended.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Nov. 4.-The rush
of corn shipments from the United
States into Mexico continues with no in
dication of decrease The car famine
on the Mexican National road has not
been relieved and that company is suf-
fering a heavy loss daily by not being
able TO handle the corn that is destined
to points on its line. The blockade at
Alice and Corpus Christi is still very
heavy. The traffic facilities of the Mex
lean International are insufficient to
handle the large amount of grain that is
being brought to Eagle Pass by the
Southern Pacific road and serious
blockade is threatened at that point.
