STRANGLED BY HER MOTHER.
Fatal Punishment Inflicted ON Little
Colored Girl

MARLToN, N. j., April 19.-In little
house on the road from Marlton to Mil
ford, only short distance from either
place, most brutal murder was conf
mitted. The victim was Matte Chalk
ley, bright young colered girl, Q years
of age, who was deliberately murdered
by her mother, Louisa Chalkley, in the
presence of another member of the fam
lily, who was unable to prevent the trag-
edy, so quickly was it committed In
fact, she could hardly realize that tho
child was dead until some time after
wards.
Even then the affair was kept secret,
as the mother, it is said, threatened to
finish the rest of the family if they made
any outcry or even told tho neighbors
anything about it.
The discovery was finally made by
John Proud, a brother of Mrs. Chalkley,
who came over to see how the family
was getting on. In response to his
questioning the guilty woman admitted
that she had been rather rough with the
child, and had put rope around its
neck to punish it for some slight offense.
Then she asked the child if it was sorry,
and as no answer was received she pulled
the rope rather tigher than she thought,
whereupon the child fell off the chair
dead.
Proud Immediately left the house and
notified Constable McNirney, who in
turn summoned Coroner J. d. Janney,
of Riverton. A few hours later the cor
oner arrived and summoned jury Of
six men to hold an inquest. 1t did not
take them long to reach conclusion.
The testimony of Proud as to the ad-
missions made by Mrs. Chalkley, to-
gether with the testimony of the oldest
child, Rachel, a bright child of 13 years,
was taken, and the jury returned vor-
dict of willful murder. Mrs. Chalkley
was taken to the Jail at Mount Holly
yesterday, and the case will be laid be-
fore the grand jury this afternoon.

AGREEMENT SIGNED.
The Wholesale Slaughter of Seals
Will Now be Stopped.
CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT.

The Document Is n Renewal of Last
Years Agreement. with the Ad-
dition of n Proviso for Payment
of Damages Sustained by Cana
dians Should Great Britain Win.
WASHINGTON, April 19.-An agree
ment between the United State and
Great Britain for Il modus viyendi in re-
lation to the fur seal fisheries in Behring
sea for the present was signed yesterday
by Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British
minister, representing the government
of her Britannia majesty, and by James
Ct. Blaine, secretary of state, represent
ing the government of the United States.
This important agreement was signed at
the residence of Secretary Blaine, who,
owing to the inclement weather, did not
60 to the department. He at once took
it over to the executive mansion and laid
it before the president, who subsequently
transmitted it to the senate for its ac-
ton. The modus is in the form of
supplemental convention to the treaty Of
arbitration recently negotiated and rati-
fed.
Governments United for Protection.
The modus vivendi states that both
governments will prohibit during the
sealing season the killing of seal in that
part of the Bering Sea lying eastward of
the line of demarcation described in ar
tfcle No. 1 of the treaty of 1857 between
the United States and Russia, and each
government will enjoin its citizens and
vessels to an observance of this agree
ment.
Tho United States, it is understood,
is allowed to kill for the subsistence of
the natives on the islands of st. Paul
and st. George $500 seals, the same
restriction as was made last year, and
the United States binds itself to observe
this prohibition.
The vessels of either the United States
or Great Britain. or citizens of either
country, offending against this agree
ment may be seized by either of the high
contracting parties, but as soon as prac-
ticable should be handed over to the
authorities of the nation to which they
belong, who shall have jurisdiction to
try the oifense and impose the penalty
for the same.
Renewal OF Last Years Agreement.
In general it may be said that the
document is renewal of the agreement
of 1891, with the addition of clause
providing for the settlement of damages
sustained by the Canadian sealers
Through the interruption of their bust
mess IN case the arbitration goes against
the United States.
;. - ier this clause owners of Canada
vessels have already begun to file
their clans with commission appointed
10 receive and present them. But Gen
aral Foster, the agent of the United
States, who is preparing the case for this
government, and Hon. L. j. Phelps,
Counsel, are leaving no point uncovered,
and will be fully prepared to meet the
claims on this score in the event that
they shall ever be pressed for payment.

WARMED BY RUsTLERs.
Wyoming Cattlemen Fleeing from john
son County to Save Their Lives.


CHEYENNE, Wyo., April ia num-
Der Of people fleeing from the rustler
county have passed through Cheyenne.
Their stories are so fragmentary that the
only reliable report gained from them is
that the rustlers have completely terror
lied johnson county. One of the stock
men who arrived hereshews notice re-
ceived from a secret organization of the
rustlers warning him to leave the coun-
try within five days or be killed. He
says dozens Of the fleeing cattlemen have
received similar notices.
Both Governor Barber and General
Brooke, who have been in constant tele-
graphic communication with each other,
are anxiously awaiting news from Fort
Mckinley. 1t is now admitted by tho
citizens here and at Douglas that Sheriff
Angus has had the wire cut in order to
prevent an order being sent from Cen
eral Brooke to Colonel Van Horne, at
Fort Mckinley, to deliver the prisoners
to Governor Barber at Cheyenne.
Public men regard tho situation as
alarming, and few can be made to be-
heve that it is probable that all cattle
men can be got out of the country alive.
Governor Barber says he has discussed
the plan of sending a commission to
Buffalo TO investigate the true condition
of affairs in that country. This will
probably be done.
No steps have been taken to bring the
prisoners to Douglas, and the governor
disclaims any intention of shielding
them from the action of the law. He
says they will be turned over to the
civil authorities as soon as they can pro-
tect them from mob violence. II these
assurances reach johnson county the ex-
cltement there may be allayed.
