STAYED THE FArAL SHOT.
Condemned Choctnvv Respited on
the Brink of the Grave.

CADDO, I. T., March 16. - John
Jacob. the Choctaw who was sentenced
to be shot yesterday, has been granted
a. new hearing. The news of the re-
spite reached the condemned man
while he was awaiting the discharge
of the sheriff's deadly Winchester
Five minutes later he would have been
a dead man. The execution was to
have taken place at Pushmatahma
court grounds, thirty miles east of
here. Jacob had taken an appeal to
Judge Everidge, one of the supreme
judges, but no decision had been rem
dered and yesterday afternoon at 2
o'clock preparations for carrying out
the law were made. Religious services
had been held, Jacob had shaken hands
with his friends and babe them fare
well, had pulled off his coat painted
a spot over his heart and taken his
seat to await the firing of Sheriff
Lawrence's Winchester, when cour-
Ter dashed up and handed the respite
to the officer, who was about to carry
out the courts sentence. The docu-
ment granting him a rehearing a
month hence had been delayed owing
to the extreme cold and high waters
which the courier encountered.

is Release Effected With the
Aid of a Soudanese Mep-

ASSOUAN, Egypt, March 16-Slatin
Bey has arrived here, having escaped
from the Mahli's camp, Omdurman
Khartoum, after eleven years cap
tivity. Father Ohrwalder and two
Sisters of Charity, long prisoners at
Omdurman, escaped from there on
Nov. 30, 1891, and arrived at Room
Dec. 1 of the same year.
The following are the particulars
of the escape of Slatin Bey from the
Mahdfs camp, Omdurmankhartoum,
where he has been a prisoner for
eleven years past. Slatin escaped
with the assistance of SoudaneSe
merchant named Eyail, whe arrived
her from Omdurman some months
ago bearing letter from Siat1n Bey,
in which the letter asked if some
ARRANGEMENT could be made with
Eyail so as to enable him to escape.
Eyail was placed in communication
with the Austrian consul here, Baron
Heidler Won Egeregg- Syrgenstein,
who made a contract with the mer-
chant, the latter agreeing to try to
effect the escape of Slatin Bey.
When the arrangements were COM
pleted Eyail returned to Omdurman
and laid his plans to get Slatin away.
But the first attempt failed. Eyail,
however, persisted, and eventually
succeeded in getting Slatin Bey out
of Omdurman. The Soudanese mer-
chant closely followed the plans of
Abdalla, the native who was sue
cessful in bringing about the escape
of Father RoSignoli from the camp
of the Mahdi They obtained pos
session of canlels, and when the
proper time arrived they rode out
of the camp at night and made at
full speed for Berber, following the
Nile as closely as possible at night,
and hiding in the hills back from
the river in the day time. For eigh-
teen days, suffering great privations,
the fugitives journeyed through the
desert to Assouan. 1t was three
days after they left Obdurman be-
fore their escape was noticed, but
when the alarm was given there was
q hot pursuit, and body of pursu-
ing Dervishes reached Kokreb, sixty
miles from Suakim, last week. Stat

LATONIA CHANGES HANDS.
Possibility of a Consolidation OF
Prominent Trucks

Prominent Tracks.
CINCINNATI, o., March 16-CoI. w.
E. Apologize, as trustee o. d syndicate
of seven men, several Of whom live in
Louisville, concluded this afternoon
with Ed Shopper, trustee for the stock
holders of the Latonia Jockey club, a
transfer of the controlling interest in
the stock of Latonia, whereby Col Ap-
plegate's syndicate becomes the vir..
tual owner of the Latonia track The
stock of Latonia was $150,0OO Col. Ap-
pleSate will not name the price paid
by the syndicate, but it is believed that
it will make the total value as repre-
sented by the stock about S225, 900. Col
Ed Shopper, the Latonia secretary. is
stakeholder in the new concern
Among known members of the pur-
chasing syndicate besides Col. Apple
gate are Majs. Wichhoff and NeilI
Bourller, of Louisville. Col AppIesate
announces that there will be no vio-
lent changes in the management. Col
Ed Shopper will be retained as sec
rotary. Col. Bohn Carter, OF Louis
vile, will be the chief judge. His as
sociate judges have not been named
Col. w. E. Pettingill will be the start
er. A mounted patrol judge will be
introduced at Latonia, and there will
be telephone communication from the
patrol judge and the starter to the
judges stand. 1t is surmised that a
state of good fellowship almost equiv
aIent to a consolidation will be estah-
llshed between Latonia, Oakley. Louis
vile and Lexington tracks, since Col
Applegate has pecuniary interests in
the two last named. Col. Applegate
and Maj. Wichhoff left for Louisville
tonight, but the colonel will return
early next week.

THREE SCORE SENT UP.
Great Excitement in Hungary
Over Sentence of Rioters.

BUDAPEST, March &c. - The trial
has been finished at SZegedin of sixty
two socialists, who were charged with
being concerned in the peasant riots
at Roldmezo, Vasarhol, Hungary, in
April last. Twenty-SiX of the social
lists were sentenced to imprisonment
for periods ranging from eight days to
five years There is great excitement
in the vicinity of SZegedin in conse-
quence of these sentences, and the
police and troops are being held in
readiness to prevent more riots.
The riots at HoldmeZo, Vasarhol, &C.
CURED the last week in April, 1894. The
police at that time, being called out,
refused to interfere with the strikers.
The claim was made that the local
police greatly sympathiZed with the
socialists. The rioters succeeded in
forcing their way into the town hall
before the arrival of the state troops.
They tore from the walls the portraits
of the king and queen of Hungary and
Louis Kossuth and trampled them.
They nearly wrecked the building be-
fore the state troops could drive them
out. Four of the rioters were killed
and large number injured.

ALL QUIET IN NEW ORLEANS.
Strikers Make No Attempt to In
terfere With Screyymen.

NEW ORLEANS, March, 16.-The
labor situation remains unchanged to-
day. The colored screwmen were at
work under the protection of the state
troops on the foreign steamers which
are loading cotton, and there was no
attempt on the part of their white
rivals to interfere with them in any
way. Numbers of the whites remain
idle, but their time is spent in haunts
on the streets, and they avoid as
much as possible appearing on the
levee. There was no formal attempt
to effect a settlement Of the trouble
today. The white screwmen held sew
eral meetings in secret but tonight
showed no sign of being willing to re-
cede from the position they have
taken. The merchants committee
was also in session. but their business
was mainly TO raise funds for the sup
port of the troops. They refuse to
treat with the screwmen, and say
they will be satisfied with nothing
less than an absolute surrender-the
acknowledgment of the right of
every man, irrespective of color, to
work on the levee.

There is no mistake about the existence
OF dissatisfaction among distributors

per gallon and instructing them to adj
vance accordingly. At an informal
meeting they decided to ignore the re-
quest. They charge NcNulta by advanc-

outside distilleries are running at 60
per cent capacity, while the trust plants
run at 80 per cent and the production
exceeds the sales. 1t is said that now
there is no doubt that the Mill Creek
Distilling company, of this city, will
build a large new distillery The fact
is that it has been for several days
looking for a site for a new distillery

MONSTER LOCKOUT.
Life or Death Struggle for British
BOOtmakers.

LONDON, March 16.-The great
lockout Of bootmakers, affecting 2OO,-
600 operatives, commenced today.
The employers refused to arbitrate
the questions in dispute, claiming
that the operatives did not accept
previous decisions of the arbitrators.
The lockout, it is expected, will
eventually affect about 10000 oper-
atives. 1t has been stated here that
it is a question not of fair dealing
between capital and labor, but of
whether English boot and shoemak-
ing can be carried in the face of
American competition. In this con-
nection it has been stated by the
employers that even if the American
operatives get twice the wages paid
in England, they can turn out cheap
er shoes, owing to their more intelli-
gent use of machinery.

Chinese envoy has solicited the inter

The Chinese envoy has gone to

Chinese envoy at London and Paris.
1t is added that no request for as
slstance has been made to the
United States, Italy or Austria.
WASHINGTON, March 16.-The Jan
anese legation has received a cable
message confirming the press dispatches
of the departure of Ii Hung Chang
from Tien Tsin for Japan to arrange
terms of peace. The peace negotia-
tons will be conducted at Simonesky
instead OF Hiroshima, as originally an
nounced. The change has been made
to accommodate Ii Hung Chang. who
is on Chinese vessel, and If the nego-
t1ations were held at Hiroshima Would
be compelled to transfer to a Japanese
ship. Simonesky is on the extreme
southwestern coast of Japan, and it
as there that in the early sixties the
foreign powers forced Japan to assent
to certain indemnities demanded of the
empire. 1t is stated at the legation that
the assertions that the peace negotia-
lions have been arranged already,
and that the whole affair is cut and
dried is erroneous, and that all state
ments as to details of the terms of
peace are guesses. none of the details.
it is said, having been settled, and will
not be until the negotiations are in
progress. Japan has been informed
that Ii Hung Chang has full power to
arrange terms of peace, and has been
assured of China's desire that war be
stopped by treaty agreement.

WAS GOVERNOR OF SEMINAR
Slatin Bey, who is an Austrian, was
the Egyptian governor Of SEMINAR when
Khartoum fell and Gen. Gordon was
killed. AT that time he was led in
chains to Khartoum, where he has
betn a prisoner ever since. In the
early part of 1859 a family named
Slatin, living in Vienna, received a
letter from Khlaffir Abdullah, who
succeeded the late Mahdi as chief
tain of Egypt's rebelious provinces
in Soudan. The letter stated that
Slatin Bey had adopted the religion
of Mohammed. HE lives with u.s."
the letter continued, ''honored by our
friendship, one of our valued adj
visers, and is perfectly content and
happy in the highest degree.
I'VE see in him neither grief nor
chagrin, but, on the contrary, he is
perfectly healthy and is looked upon
as our own son, and one of the most
honored Mahdis.''
The letter invited any of Slatin's
relatives or any Austrian to visit him,
assuring them they could do SO in
perfect safety in consideration of
Slatin's sincere piety, of his faith in
Islam, and because he had become one
of the most eminent and highly es
teemed Mahdists.
at about the same time a letter was
received from Slatin which establish
ed the authenticity of this communi-
cation.
Reports concerning Satin Bey have
been contradictory, but it is believed
that he was employed in the most
servile capacity while in captivity.
After Father Ohrwalder effected his
escape in December, 1891, he stated that
there were forty Europeans still held
at Obdurman,. that they were kept
loaded with manacles and were often
cruelty beaten and were so strictly
guarded that they had lost all hope of
ever escaping. He also stated that
Slatin Bey was still alive and be-
longed to the body guard OF the
Mahdfs successor, but that he also
was closely watched.
