against the idea that Lord Rosebery
should be selected to succeed Gladstone,
saving If the premier was not chosen
from among the members Of the COM
mons they would leave the Liberal
party.
This afternoon Gladstone's private
secretary informed the Associated Press
that the resignation of the premier can
not long be deferred; that at his audi
ence with the queen yesterday he re-
ferred to his increasing difficulties,
owing to his failing sight, deafness and
age, and told her majesty he could not
long continue to bear the responsibilities
OF the premiership.
The Times says: "The close of Glad
stones great career cannot be contem-
plated save with sadness and regret.
Friends and opponents are united in this
crisis by the common sentiment of
{ espectiul sympathy that overleaps all
differences and antsgonisms. There is
something disappointing, unworthy of
the occasion, in his speech, dealing as it
did throughout with meager and bitter
banallties and current partisanship. He
leaves his post without Offering q pro-
gramme or formulating policy Lr enun-
ciating principle"
Continuing, the Times saws: "We
have reason to believe Gladstone has
made his last speech in parliament as
premier, and that he has determined to
resign before the new session Of the
year"
The Daily News announces that al
though Gladstone has not resigned and
all definite announcements on the sub
ject are premature, 1--WE are of tie opin-
ion, owing to personal reasons which
have been often described, that the event
cannot much longer be postponed"
Commenting on the event, a foreign
daily newspaper says: "The splendor
OF yesterdays speech and the vigor with
which it was delivered. make it difficult
to realize that the nation is about to lose
the value of his incompatible services.
The unimpaired strength of his physical
frame and the undiminshed richness of
his magnificent intellect are counter
balanced by the cruel malaoY which has
afflicted his eyes. There ia no reason
why he should not witness before his
final departure the triumph of the prin-
ciple ON which he has lavished his
matchless powers. On the day of that
victory it must, it will be, Gladstone'a e
victory"
The Daily News, discussing the ques-
ton OF successor to Gladstone. again
argues that the accident of birth ought
not to debar Lord Rosebery from the
premiership. Regarding the lords, the
Daily News says Gladstone struck note
that will ring through the land. The
final decision will not be given yet.
There is no intention to dissolve parlia-
ment this year. The lords have not
filled the measures of their mischief.

to be conflict between the civil and
military authorities, and asking that

another dispatch was receiced from GEN

congregated at Montgomery and were
determined to do serious damage to-

termanded his order recalling two

The Fayette county sheriff was on the
ground with 90 deputies, but did not
feel able to cope with the strikers, so he
called for troops. Wyant's men are
furious, it is reported, and anxious for
another battle.
Later accounts say after last nights
conflict the attacking party went to the
Montgomery and Haley mines for rein
foreements and returned at 8. M, 1900
strong. Wyant's men are strongly en-
trenched in the mountains. Seven
companies Of militia are on the ground.
at the latest accounts the fight had not
been renewed.
Excitement still runs high, but no
new outbreak is feared. Another tele-
gram says the rioters are only awaiting
the withdrawal OF the troops before
making another attack.

CORBETT NOT GUILTY.

THE CHAMPION.
It Took Them Only Sixteen Minutes to
Bring in Verdict Other

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, March lat 3:51
this afternoon the jury in the case OF
James ]. Corbstt, charged with violating
the laws OF Florida, by engaging in a
prize fight, retired to make up YER
dict. Sixteen minutes later the jury re-
turned and the foreman handed the
verdict to the state's attorney, who
read: "We, the jury, find the defendant t
not guilty"
A broad smile spread over Corbett's q
face as he heard the reassuring words.
Charlie Mitchell leaned over and grasped
Corbett by the hand and whispered con-
gratulations.
The proceedings leading up to the
verdict were unlnteresting. Alter the
examine ton of few witnesses, ho
gave no material testimony, the state
closed its case, and the defense an
nounced it would introduce no wit
nesAes. The attorneys arguments were
brief, and Judge Phillips charged the
Jury.
The impression here is that the whole
thing has been farce. Attorney Gen
eral Lamar was asked: "Will you push
the other cases?
II cannot say yet," replied the attor-
ney general. II wired the governor for
instructions and the states coarse in re-
gard to the other cases depends ON the

Corbett left for New Orleans tonight

Governor Markham Abridgss the Terms
of Four Convicta.

Governor Markham Abridges the Terms
of Four Convicts.
SACRAMENTO, March 1.-Governor
Markham has granted two psrdons and
two combinations Of sentences.
Albert Heuck, convicted at San Diego
in October, 1889, for assault, sentenced
to Folsom for seven years, was psrdoned
on recommendation of the prison di-
rectors. In the opinion of the directors,
the complaining witness committed per-
jury and Heuck is not guilty OF the
crime for which he is now suffering i'm
priaonment. 1t tappears that since the
incarceration of the prisoner. the COM
planning witness sought to obtain dam
ages against another individual who,
she claimed. had criminally assaulted
her.
Henry Hunt, convicted at Los Angeles
in March, 1882, for murder in the first
degree and sentenced to Folsom for life,
had his sentence commuted to 81 years.
The governors reasons are that the
board OF prison directors, after careful
consideration of the ceee, recommended d
that the application be granted; that
the murder was not premeditated and
malicious one, the victim being total
stranger to Hunt, and he was killed
apparently accidentally, by reason Of
interfering in quarrel while Hunt was
attempting to shoot another person
that although an old man at the time ol
the commission of the crime for whicn
he is now undergoing sentence, Hunt
seems to have borne a good reputation
as peaceable man; that he is now an
old and feeble man, with but a few years
to live; that he has been incarcerated
for nearly 13 years, and in the opinion
of the board has been sufficiently pun
ished for his offense.
The sentence of Henry L. Azbill, a boy
convicted in Ventura county in May
1892, OF assault, and sentenced to San
Quentin for four years, was commuted tc
Two and one.sixth years.
