NADEAU, THE OUTLAW.
The Man who Shot Deputy McNally
Keeping Up His Record.

FoRT KENT, Me-, May 11.-Since the
attempt of the officers to arrest him, Ma
deau, the man who shot Deputy United
States Marshal McNally, has been to
town twice after provisions. On each
occasion he has had his rifle, and has
remarked that he 'swould kill the first
man that troubled him. On his first
visit he called at the store and shouted
to the proprietor to put up the articles
wanted. Nadeau saw a man coming
toward him and he kept stepping back,
so that the man would be in front of him,
until the storekeeper had wrapped up
the goods, and then he turned and took
the same way to get out of the store. A
short time ago two men passed Nadeau' S
camp in wagon. They were in the
the desperados headquarters they drove
rather slowly. Nadeau came out of the
camp with rifle and commanded them
to halt and come to him or he would
blow their brains out. The men never
dreamed of having death stare them in
the face so quickly, and as soon as posi-
BILE they made their way to where Ma
deau was standing.
He ordered them to strip off every
piece of clothing they wore. The men
obeyed, and then Nadeau had them
show him everything in their pockets,
being very particular to find whether
they had any badges pinned upon their
clothes. He thought that they might
possibly be officers in disguise, and he
was agreeably disappointed. After the
men had put on their clothing they were
allowed to depart, and it can be said that
no two men were ever more glad to do
SO than these.

ALCRYoN's FATE.
The Case of the Horse and the National
Trotting Association.

CHICAGO, May 1.-THE board of re-
view of the National Trotting Association
rendered several decisions at its meeting
today. In the case of the horse Alcryon
which was ruled off in the famous race
with the stallion Nelson, the matter was
turned over to the president, ex- Govern.
or Bulkeley of Connecticut, and pending
his decision the driver was temporarily
reinstated. A check for $4,000, which
one of the parties was alleged to have Sc
cured from pool seller just before the
race, caused all the trouble.

LONDON, May 11.-Information coming
from private source would seem to
give somewhat alarming aspect to the
indisposition from which the Prince of
Wales is known to be suffering, but the
exact nature of it has never been salts
factorily described. The statement is
credited to an intimate friend of the late
Sir Morell Mackenzie that the eminent
throat specialist, three days before his
death, paid professional visit to the
Prince, having been hastily summoned
to Marlborough House for that purpose.
The Princes symptoms were such that
he and the Princess feared they might
indicate the existence of an ailment like
that for which Sir Morell had treated
the late Emperor Frederick of GERMANY.
Sir Morell's death came so soon that it is
not known whether he formed any defin-
ite opinion of the nature of the Princes
illness,

ditionaI Bishops.
OMAHA, Neb., May 11.-Bishop Joyce
occupied the presiding officers chair in
the Methodist Episcopal General Confer
ence today The rules were suspended
to hear the report from the committee
on the centennial of the General Confer
ence of the Methodist church. The re-
port recommended special service on
the evening of May II, and that efforts
be made to collect the facts connected
with the Conference of 1892, as the off,
cial journal of that conference was lost.
The report was adopted.
A ringing resolution was offered, call
ing for an earnest effort to unite the two
branches of the Methodist Episcopal
church in the United States. 1t was re-
fered to the committee on state of the
church, amid applause.
A resolution was introduced by the
Rev. Mr.. Brown, colored, of Maryland,
declaring that the colored brethren
would remain loyal to the church, not
withstanding false report that they in
tended to stampede from the church if
certain concessions were not made to
them. The resolution was greeted with
applause, and referred to the committee
on state of the church.
The conference then took up the re-
port of the constitution committee.
Bishop Merrill said the report was the
opinion and conclusion of the majority
of the committee. That portion of the
constitution by which delegates were ad-
mitted to the general conference was put
in unlawfully and not put in at all in
reality, said Bishop Merrill. The consti-
tuition really should remain as it was in
1868, with the exception that these
changes should be lawfully made. The
conference of 1868 failed to confer power
upon the conference of 1872, which lat
ter conference assumed it. This assumed
authority ought to have been corrected
long ago. The commission held that all
the fundamental rules that govern the
general conference were part of the
constitution. DIR. Hammond offered an
amendment to the report to make all
those acts constitutional which were ap-
proved by two-thirds vote of the
church in accordance with the restrictive
rules.
Pending discussion, the conference ad-
journed. The committee on episcopacy
has decided to recommend that four new
bishops be created, in defiance of the Of
ficial action of the episcopal board, which
was against increasing the number.

the question of ratification, as several
Republican Senators, out of regard to
Mr.. Reid and to lessen the effect of the
adverse act, voted for ratification after it
was certain the treaty would be beaten.
