DEATH OF A PRECIOUS BOY.

Walter Scott, the boy who wrote
letter to the London Times last
March denouncing the utterances of
the English papers regarding the
trouble with Chile, died at Dunkirk,
New York, Nov. 30, aged Is years.
Young Scott was a grandson of j..
t. Williams, editor of the Dunkirk
Evening Observer. He worked in
his grandfather's office out of school
hours and was constant reader of
newspapers. At the beginning of
the misunderstanding with Chile,
being intensely interested in the his
tory of the country, he watched the
progress of the difficulty with the
closest attention. The comments of
the English papers aroused his
patriotism and he determined to
write to the Times, resenting the
criticisms of the English press. He
wrote over the signature of Captain
Frank Scott, Thirty-third Pennsyl-
vania Rifles. His letter was printed
in the Times and was copied by Am
erican papers.

FOREIGN ITEMS.
SAD END OF A FAMOUS REPORTER.

Henry G. Trickey, a Boston re-
porter, who was indicted on Friday
by the Massachusetts, Grand Jury
for contempt of court in connection
with the Borden case, was killed by
a train near Hamilton, Canada, Dec.
80. Trickey was known throughout
New England as detective reporter.
The Grand Jury of Bristol county,
Mass, which indicted Lizzie Borden
for the murder of her father and
stepmother, also indicted Trickey
for interfering with Government
witness.
The Boston paper with which
Trickey was connected published on
October 10th a very long and sensa-
tional story about the Borden case,
great part of which was false
This story he claimed to have OBJ
tanned from Detective McHenry, one
of the Government witnesses. There
seems to have been scheme within
a scheme. Trickey was after big
cheat" and McHenry was anxious to
accommodate him so as to square
the accounts existing between him
self and the reporters growing out
of the Graves trial at Denver. This
indictment by the Grand Jury gives
color to the theory that McHenry
inveigled Trickey to Attleboro, Mass,
that he might consummate the bar
gain and receive the cash within the
Jurisdiction of the Massachusetts
courts.
Trickey was born in Dover, n. H.,
in 1868, and had been reporter since
1884. He signed articles and des-
patches, generally on criminal cases
like the Warden murder in Hanover
n. H., the Sawtelle murder in Ro.
chester, n. H., the Millen conspiracy
case in Baltimore and the Barnaby
murder in Providence, and his inter.
view with Jefferson Davis at Beau.

Not Very Moral After All.

PITTSBURGH. Pa, Dec. s. Chief
Brown of the department Of pub
lie safety revoked the order closing
the disreputable houses, and has di-
rected the superintendent of police not
to molest the inmates until such time
as Mayor Gourley shall indicate the
date at which he desires his closing
order to 60 into execution.
This action was taken after Mayor
Gourley had publicly said that the
short notice given by the police was
''cruel, inhuman and unjust"

the charges against the Rev. Frank E.
McCallum of Elk Grove completed its
labors. He was found guilty and re.
lieved of his pulpit A couple of months

peared from his residence one night,
and it is believed he has been robbed
and murdered and his body hidden
away. Finally he turned up in Omaha.
He related sensational story to the
effect that he had been bound, gagged
and blindfoldcd by two men who took
him in carriage to the mountains,
placed him on board train and or
dered him to leave the country, with
a warning that he would be killed if
he ever returned to Elk Grove. The
church committee didn't believe him.

FOR AN OPEN SUNDAY.
SPRlz0ER AND DURBoROW PRE-
PARE A BILL.
Strong Effort to Have the Sunday Clos
Ing Clause of the Worlds Fair BIZ
Stricken Out-Opposition Also on the
Alert

WASHINGTON. D. c., Dec. 5-Messrs.
Springer and Durborow got together
and prepared joint resolution for
repeal of the Sunday-closing feature
of the Worlds Fair. The resolution
covers two sheets of typewriter FOOLS
cap. 1t recites in the preamble the
general features OF excellence of the
fair and uses them in an argumenta-
tive way in leading up to a short re-
pealing clause, which is embraced in
few words. A second section to the
resolution makes it the duty of the ma
tional commission to see that such
rules and regulations are established
as will prohibit the use of machinery,
unnecessary manual labor and all mer-
chandising on Sundays, in a general
way to so restrict the operations OF the
exposition on that day that only the
art galleries, Horticultural building
and other branches devoted to arts,
science or religion are open to the
public.
Mr.. Durborow will introduce this
bill as soon as the House assemblies
next Monday noon, and will have it
referred to the Worlds Fair commit.
tee. He said yesterday that he hoped
to see the resolution actually passed
and out of the way before the Christ
mas holidays came. He thinks more
will be accomplished by an energetic
course from the outside than by allow
ing the subject to seesaw along until
the closing weeks Of the short session.
The first contest on the Sunday
question will come before the Dur
borrow committee, where there are
strong partisans on both sides of the
question. Representative Houk of
Ohio and several others are uncompro-
missing in their opposition to an open
Sunday, which makes it almost certain
that Mr.. Durborow will not be
able to procure unanimous
committee report in favor of
an appeal Of the Sunday
section. He is not so anxious, how
ever, to secure a unanimous report as
he is to get the measure out of the
committee and back to the house. He
thinks the change of sentiment on the
Sunday question has been such that it
will be possible to call up the resolu-
ton out of its regular order by sus-
pension of the rules.
Gen. st. Clair is also on the ground
to prepare for the active campaign in
behalf Of Sunday opening. Every SEN
ator and member finds in his mail
when he arrives letter from President
Higinbotham setting forth the need of
an open Sunday. Every hotel and pub
lie place in Washington has on its
counter petition to Congress for
Sunday opening. Thus in many ways
the movement for the repeal OF the
Sunday closing clause is being popu-
larized. Mr.. Durborow left for New
York, where he will see Bourk Cock
ran and osher New York members
with the view of enlisting their sym
pathies in the new movement

WITHDRAW GOLD COIN.
Delegates to the Conference Consides
Plans.


Plans
BRUSSELS, Dec. 5,-Delegates of the
powers forming the Latin union met
at the Belgian foreign Office to
agree upon a concert of action in re-
spect to the proposals of Alfred de
Rothschild, and also the Moritz and
Levy propositions The Latin union
is composed of France. Italy, Rel.
gium and Switzerland. These coun-
tries bound themselves by for
NAL treatise to gold coin and
silver indiscriminately at the rate Of
l5ls to J, the ratio fixed by France in
1903, ISIS grammes of silver being
equivalent to / gramme of gold. Since
Germany, after the Franco Prussian
war, adopted gold standard, the
members of the Latin union have not
maintained an open maket for the pur-
chase and sale of silver at the figures
stated, but have adhered to the BIZ
metallic feature of the coinage.
The Moritz-Levy plan is the with
drawal from circulation of all bank
notes and gold coins below the nom
inal value of 20 francs, and the
issue of silver and paper currency
based on silver, having the same pur-
chasing power as gold coin below 20
francs The delegates from the United
States, England, India and Mexico
have made statements to the commit
tee to the effect that they solemnly de-
sired to call attention to the universal
danger that would be incurred should
the conference prove complete fall
urs. The statements submitted to the
conference along with the report Of
the committee indicate concerted ac-
ton in the conference on the part Of
the countries named.
The following information, gathered
from the most authentic sources, dis
poses of yesterdays contradictory
rumors relative to the action of the
special committee on the Rothschild
plan: The special committee united in
declaring Mr.. Rothschild's plan ex.
tremely interesting, and worthy Of
serious attention at some time. Mr..
Rothschild having asked the commit
tee directly to recommend his proposal
to the conference, the committee by a
small majority replied in the negative,
leaving the conference complete free
dom on the subject. The special COM
mittee, after further consideration, de-
cided by large majority to specially
recommend the Rothschild plan to the
conference.
