that Representative William L. Wilson of
West Virginia was to be Attorney General
in Mr.. Clevelands cabinet. 1t was said that

fidential. Mr.. Cleveland's respect and re-
gard for Mr.. Wilson are we'll known, and

than most cabinet rumors. Mr.. Wilson

Senator Grevy Returns the Amount
He Was Accused of Receiving.
PARIS, Feb. Tx Minister and Deputy
deves, Senator Albert Grevy, brother Of the
late president, and Leon Renault have been
discharged from the accusations against
them 10 connection with the Panama pro-
ceediugs on the ground that the evidence
does not warrant putting them on trial.
Senator Beral, ex-Minister and Deputy An
tonin Proust, Deputy Duguy de la Fun
connerie and ex-Deputy Gobrono were
committed for trial at the assizes, where
the directors of the Panama Canal Com
pany are also to be tried on a charge OF COR
ruptinR the defendants named.
After hearing that the charge against
him had Teen dismissed by the chamber of
indictments. Senator Grevy sent to M.
Monohioourt, the judicial liquidator Of the
Panama Canal Company, check for 10000
francs, the amount credited to Senator
Grevy on the %hierree counter claims as
having been delivered 10 him in 1888.
In the chamber to-day Deputy Angeles
spoke at length in favor Of the governments
obtaining from Colombia prolongation of
the canal concessions, and asked the minr
istry whether any steps to this end had been
taken.
Minister Ribot replied guardedly that the
government must decline to interfere di-
recsly in the matter, desirable as it was that
the work so far done should not be allowed
10 go to waste. The government would aid
the judicial liquidator, however, to a cer-
tain extent In his efforts to get the extern
sion. The judicial liquidator was doing
everything in his power to secure an extern
sion of the concession, and he had
the moral support Of the gov
ernment. Whatever could be done
without direct Intervention the govern
ment would do to promote this realization
OF his purpose. The deputies should rest
content with these assurances, and should
vote the order Of the day. Before the vote
was taken M. Tirard, minister OF finance,
evoked loud applause by declaring that as
long as he should hold Office no institution
connected with the government should be
In any way tied TO the Panama canal enter
prise.
The order Of the day was voted by 374

RIGHT OF ASYLUM.
a Lively Fight Over the Extradition
Question in the Senate.

WASHINGTON, Feb. s.-The resolution
relative to the right Of asylum in this
country from pursuit for political offenses,
introduced in the Senate by Senator Turpie
to-day, was but the echo of vigorous pro-
test that he made in the Senate yesterday
in executive session when the Russian ex-
tradition treaty, which was subsequently,
ratified, was under discussion. The ques-
tion whether or not these so-called political
oHeuses should be made extraditable
was the only point of contention
in this treaty, which has been
held in allegiance for some months, and the
settlement Of the disputed point occasioned
the only roll call of the session. The oom-
mittee on foreign relations had been consid-
erlng this treaty for long time and when
they reported it to the Senate it was well an
amendment to the effect that attempts to
murder the cZar or any member Of the
royal family should be considered as non
political otfenses. regardless of what the
motive Of the criminal might be, and that,
being non-political offenses, they should
be extradltable. This clause was pro-
ductive of a great deal Of debate and
the Senate was compelled 20 spend part of
number Of executive sessions In it's con-
sideration.
The opposition was led by Senator 1urpie,
who has all along been champion Of the
doctrine Of the right Of asylum. The amend
ment was supported by the committee, the
members of which at some length explained
the reasons that induced them to arrive at
the determination set forth in their report
to the Senate. The senators evidently in
clined 70 the opinion that the COMMITTEES
understood the case ana were willing that
their recommendation should prevail, for
after somewhat spirited argument on the
part Of Senator Turpie, the roll call showed
more than the necessary two-thirds in favor
Of the amendment.
Senator Turpie was not satisfied with this
action of the Senate, and his resolution to-
day is intended as an Offset to the terms Of
the treaty, the action of which he seeks tc
annuI by the passage Of that resolution.

GOV. HoGG AROUSED.
he Calls on the Legislature to Take
steps Against Mob Violence.

6LeD6 Akhlhbb DAOb NlQAGUCbA
AUSTIN, Tex, Feb. IA message oon-
cerning che burning Of the negro, Smith, at
Paris has been prepared by Gov. Hogg for
submission to the legislature. The governor
says it becomes his painful duty to emphasize
the necessity Of taking some steps to pres
vent mob violence in Texas; that the recent
terrible horror caused at Paris Is but an
illustration to what extent mob will 20
when the laws are inadequate to check it
While the victim Of that affair was guilty
of an atrocious and barbarous crime, appal-
ling and contemplate, he was certain of
full punishment under the constitution and
laws of the state. Civilization stands q
helpless witness TO one of the most revolving
executions of the age, in which large
numbers of citizens openly, In broad day,
publicly became murderers, by methods
shameful to humanity. That the crime
committed at Paris is a disgrace 60 the
state, its aJrocity, inhumanity aud sioken-
ing effect on the people cannot be ooscured
by reference to the previous act OF the cul-
prit in brutally taking the life of an inno-
cent child. To contend that his execu-
TONERS can neither be indicted nor tried in
the county where the crime was committed
is a pretense and mOckery. The gov
ernor says IL the legislature will enact suit
able laws and place means at his command
every person who takes part in mob
work shall be brought to trial, or the
strength of the machinery Of justice shall
be thoroughly tested In the effort.
ALL QUIET AT sTAFFoRD's POINT.

attitude Of the whites, backed up by the
sheriff, has overawed the negroes and no
