ANOTHER CONFESSION.
Gallagher Says His First One
Was False.

PITTsBURRG, July 2O.-At 1:3O O'Clock
this afternoon Patrick Gallagher. the
confessor. requested the presence OF
Warden Wright at his cell in the peni.
Tertiary. The warden responded at
once. Gallagher said: "Warden, 1
have been in HI all night and wish to
say to you now that the confession
made by me yesterday was all Matched
up scheme, and that I was dragged
into 1t. l wish now to retract every!
thing that was said in that confession
and wish you would send for the attor.
neys interested as will decline to sign
the confession"
The warden Immediately notified
District Attorney Burleigh and Attor-
ney Porter by telephone and they hur-
ried to the peniteutiary with all haste
After three hours talk with Gallagher
District Attorney Burleigh came out and
said that Gallagher had declared under
oath that every statement he made yes
terday was absolutely false, and that
he, Dempsey, Beatty and Davidson are
guilty as indicted. He broke down and
cried like child. Warden Wrigh At says
Gallagher had big bundle of manu-
his little speech, which was prepared
for him on the outside of the peniten.
tiary andwhich he told yesterday.
There Is considerable speculation as
to why Gallagher made the statement
he did yesterday, but the most plausible
reason given was that he thought the
Knights of Labor would have enough in
fiuence to serve him pardon. However,
the story that Davidson went back on
Gallagher seems to have settled him,
and he decided to reiterate the state
ment he made on the witness stand at
the ii ne Dempsey was convicted.
Since the attorneys for Dempsey have
put in their application for pardon they
will have TO go through with it. II
they wittd a~ it they would have as
much trouble in the future to get re-.
hearing as If they go through with it
now and are refused. When it became
nois ed obout the courthouse that Gala.
Cher had retracted all he said yesterday,
it created much excitement and com.
ment.

THE FRENCH DEMANDS.
An Ultimatum Sent to the Govern
ment of Siam.
HEAVY INDEMNITY IS DEMANDED.

1t viii Cost the Siamese Three Million
Francs, Exclusive of the Claims Made
by Private PERSONAL Report That
Siam Is Willing is indemnify.
PARIS, July 20-The statement pub.
lished in The Soir relative to the sending of
an uitimatum to the Samese government
is confirmed by sem-oflicial announce
ment The ultimatum has been sent
Siam will be given forty eight hours in
which to accept or reject the demands
made upou her by France. NJ. Dcvelle sent
The ultimatum directly after the close of
the session of the chamber of deputies 1t
was addressed to NJ. Pavie, the French res
ident at Bangkok.
The total indemnity claimed by France Is
3,OOO,O00 francs, exclusively of the claim
made by private persons. The ultimatum
declares that if Siam does not agree to the
demands made upon her in the time speci-
fled the French fleet will blockade the Me-
nam river, upon which the Siamese capt.
tai is located. If the terms offered by
France are accepted the French will re-
quire as pledge of good faith permission
to occupy one of the forts or safe anchor
age Mt the entrance to the Menam river.
III the principle of the ultimatum is ac-
cepted, consideration OF the details may
be deferred until the arrival at Bangkok
Oh Nj. Lemyre de Villiers. who is now ON
the way to Siam as French plenipoten-
tiary.
A dispatch from Bangkok says the Siam
csc government admits that the French
citizens whose injuries and losses have
been the subjects of negotiations and pro-
tests are entitled to indemnity, and has
offered to make deposit in bank pend
tn lafa
OF damages. Every attempt to get definite
statement of claims, however, is said to
have failed
Ihe French are already in possession Of
the Lower NlekonG river. and if Siam con-
ceues the demands now made upon her
the river will be made almost entirely
French. 1t was but Il short time ago that
the river was acknowledged to be con-
siderable distance to the westward of the
French sphere of influence in AMMAN a
mountain range lies IL long distance to the
eastward of the Mekong river, and the
French claimed no jurisdiction to the west
ward of this range
Recently France claimed the entire
water shed to the westward of the noun
tains to the river, and now she demands
that the Siamese cvacuate the western
bank which, if they do, will place both
banks OF the river for the greater parts of
its length in possession of the French.
This would give France complete juris-
diction over cerGain portions of the
Laos states that are now tributary to
Siam. In its more norlherly course, the
river separates the Shan states. under
British control, from the Laos states If
France gets possession of the territory she
eventually desires, her newly acquired pos
sessions will border on what is practically
British territory.
