WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-There is good
authority for the statement that a per-
emptory demand will be made by the
United States on France for the release
of ex-Consul John Waller of Tamataye,
and that satisfactory indemnity will be
required for his arrest and Imprisonment
with a probable request for commits
sion to determine Walters rights in Mad
agascar. The discussion of the case be-
tween the French and American diplo-
mats has reached point which it is
States to do, owing to the fact that re-
peated requests for a copy of the charges
and testimony on which Waller was con-
victed have not been furnished by the
French government.
1t was said at the state department to-
day that the delay in the case had been
very annoying to the officials especially
Ambassador EuStis. The dilatoriness of
France in this matter is regarded as in
dlcating that she has very poor case
and will be unable to resist the demands
made by the United States. A condition
which the delay of France is more aggra-
waiting, is the fact that the department
is aware of the seriousness of Walters
illness. Imprisonment and further con-
hnement is injuring his health. Inter-
national questions generally move slowly,
but the delay in producing papers and
testimony in the case of Waller have
been of a very eXasperating nature and
has resulted in sharp pressure by United
States officials to bring about a settle
ment. Some Of the reports which have
been received at Washington say the
treatment of Waller has been unjust, and
his arrest and trial a breach of interna-
tional comfy,

Cleveland Is Concerned.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-With refer
ence to the criticisms which have been
made from time to time concerning the
state departments conduct of the Waller
case, it can be stated that Mr.. Walters
friends here are satisfied that the case
Is receiving the most careful and jealous
attention OF the department. Notwith-
standing Secretary Olney's absence from
the city he has given personal attention
to the conduct of the negotiations look
ing to Mr.. Walters release and restora-
ton to his rights. Furthermore the presi-
dent himself has manifested a concern
regarding the matter which he would not
give if he did not feel the case was I'M
usual in complications involved. Enough
is known regarding the progress of the
negotiations to justify the statement that
the department is confident they will re-
suit in the release of Mr.. Waller with
indemnity for his Imprisonment and the
restoration of his property rights. The
department thinks Walters bare release
could have been secured before now, but
1t was felt that this would be accom-
for imprisonment and protection of Mr..
Waller in his property rights in NADIA
gascar. All the money interests involved
are placed by no one in the department
at less than a million dollars. The case
has been handled on the theory that it
was better Mr.. Waller should. continue
to endure his incarceration for few
months rather than risk loss of his
claim. Ambassador EustiS has found it
impracticable to secure more of the re-
cord in France than the specification of
the charges, but it is understood prom
Use has been made to secure the full re-
cord from Madagascar. This will take
some time, but the state department is
confident that when received it will bear
out the full representations of the de-
partment and aid materially in securing
Justice to Mr.. Waller, and it is deemed
wise to wait for it rather than unduly
press the matter.

PROBATE COURT.
Sarah Efie Cnvanaugh Gets More
Money for Her "IIIness"-Estate
of Mrs. Fou1ger.

Gustave Kroeger, the guardian of
Sarah Effie Cavanaugh, a minor
whose estate has received so
many gratuitous notices in the
press of late, on account of the
Fitness of the ward, applied yester-
day to the probate court for an order
for S155 for expenses for the care of
the child. Also for $50 per month for
Sidney Tomney, the mother Of the girl,
until further notice.
It appears that Sarah Effie Cava-
naughs illness" was not of a danger
Gus sort by any means. Kroeger has
asked for money from time to time in
this case on account of illness. The real
nature of the malady, however, was
concealed from the papers as far as
the records show, but all the reporters
have been aware Of the real condition
of affairs since the filing.
There was a story behind the case
which was very unsavory in its ma
ture, but this paper refrains from pub
fishing 1t in the interests of morality.
In the estate of Susannah Foulger,
M. S. Woolley, H. ]. Foulger, jr., and
A. C. Meyer, the appraisers appointed,
yesterday made their return. The re-
port shows a balance of $2,369.9S.

LEAvENWORTH, Kan, Aug. I'll
Senator Baker is in receipt of an au-
tograph letter from John Waller, ex-
consul at Tamatave, written in the lat
ter's cell, touching upon his imprison-
ment. Waller says in part:
''As you are a lawyer of long ex-
perience I ask you to carefully notice
the testimony of Captain Lavesot and
note that it was not by his testimony
that the prosecution seems to have
based the charge that I was guilty of
corresponding with the enemy of
France.
ST submit that he evidence for the
prosecution utterly fails to sustain or
support the charge under which I am
in solitary confinement for twenty
years, and by the failure Of which the
case against me should have been dis
missed by the prosecution in so far
as it related to violation of the penal
code, namely, in the indictment"

DEAF MUTE SCHOOL FIRE.
Letters Exchanged Between the Re-

Letters Exchanged Between the Re-
gents and Chief Devine.
James Deyine, Superintendent Fire De-
Dear SRA meeting of the board of
regents was held yesterday and the
recent loss by fire to the Deaf Mute
school building was considered.
1t was the opinion of the regents that.
considering all the circumstances, it was
a mark of efficient work done by the fire
department and great credit to it and
it's men that the fire was substantially
kept above the attic floor and the main
loss to the building confined to the ROOF.
The university is public corpora
ton, supported by the tax payers, and it
is a matter of public interest. The
limitation of the loss will contribute to
the speedy restoration of the building and
the opening of the school will probably
be delayed but little, if any, beyond the
stated time.
The regents unanimously voted their.
thanks to the fire department and its
men, and directed US to inform the de.
partment, and we are pleased to be the
agency to carry notice Of their senti-
mentS.
For the board of regents.
