BALFOUR EXTRADITED.
The Ea-Menlbcr of Parliament Returned
From argentine for Trial.

The EG-Menber of Parliament Returned
From argentine for Trial.
SOUTHAMPTON, ENG, May 5.-Jabbez
Spencer Balfour, the ex-member of Parlia-
ment who has gained worldwide notoriety
through his connection with the collapse
of the Liberator Building Society and
allied concerns, has, by the long-continued
efforts of the British Government to secure
his extradition, been brought at last from
Argentine, whence he fed.
He arrived tonight from Buenos Ayres.
His expected arrival caused the greatest
excitement and every precaution was
taken to protect him.
A large number of detectives and police
men were present to take charge of him
and prevent any overt act on the part of
the crowd that began to assemble
as soon as it became known that the
Tartar Prince, the ship on which
Balfour was to arrive, had been signaled
off the coast. When the ship arrived the
dock was closed to the public, and Balfour
was placed on special train bound for
London. The Scotland Yard authorities
have taken elaborate precautions to pre-
vent the prisoner from being interviewed.

EASTERN WATERSPOUTS.
Portions of Ohio, Indiana and
Kentucky Inundated by
CIOudburStS.
The North Fork of the Kentucky
River Rises at the Rate of Three
Feet an Hour.

CINCINNATI, OHIO, May 5.-Advices
from Southern Ohio, Southeastern Indiana
and Northeastern Kentucky report phe-
nomenal waterspouts before sunset last
night. At McGonigle's Station, near
Hamilton, crops were badly damaged, as
also were bridges and fences. In Scioto
County the people were greatly alarmed.
Much damage was done around New Bos-
ton.
About two miles from Harrodsburg, KY,
waterspout inundated the country.
Water was three feet deep in the fields,
carrying logs and fencing into the high
ways. Trees were blown down and toll
house carried away and crops were badly
damaged. In none of the localities did the
damage extend beyond mile square.
There was terrific cloudburst at noon
to-day between Torrent and Fincastle,
Kentucky, causing a big landslide. The
North Fork of the Kentucky River rose
three feet in one hour.

ESTIMATING HORSES.
The London Post Says the Boom Has
Bound to Die Out.

LONDON, ENG, May 5.-The Post,
commenting upon the performances of
American horses at Newmarket, says ::
The American boom was bound to die out
sooner or later. The early symptoms
thereof were supplied Thursday, when
three of their vaunted representatives.,
Stonenell, Harry Reed and Montauk.
went down like ordinary stock.
AS for their time trials and other recent
races, in running Montauk is not flyer,
and it is very open question if Harry
Reed will have any English supporters for
the Jubilee stakes, for no one is insane
enough to believe that English horses,
trainers and jockeys have been standing
still for generations past to clear the way
for American advance.
If Stonenell was seen at his best in the
race for the March stakes, when receiving
fourteen pounds from Bestman, his incom-
parable inferiority was exposed to ridicu-
lous extent.
The Times says: The American horses
ran well enough to justify the belief that
they will yet prove they are deserving of
the character they enjoyed in their own
country.

MONDAY NEXT THE DAY.
Only Two Attorneys Will Be
Allowed to Talk for Each
Side of the Case.
oLNEY IS NOW INTERESTED.
He Has Intimated That He Would
Like the Opportunity of Pre-
senting Facts.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May st is not
known what time will be given to the re-
argument of the income tax cases, which
are to be begun in the United States Su-
preme Court on Monday next. The order
of the court granting the rehearing did not
specify as to time, and the Chief Justice is
quoted as having said since the order was
made that the argument would be at length.
On the first argument about twelve
hours time, equivalent to three Supreme
Court days, were given to the subject.
Then three attorneys were heard on each
side. The Chief Justices order in the pres
ent instance provides for the hearing of
only two counsel on each side. 1t is there
fore probable the argument will be extend
ed over at least two days, and it is possible
counsel will seek to have it cover even
more time.
The motion for a rehearing was for a
second hearing on the points on which the
court was divided, but Acknowledgement
Olney stated in his brief on the subject Of a
rehearing that in case the petition should
be granted he would ask to have the entire
question reopened, saying the Government
had never been heard as to whether tax
on rentals or dividends on bonds was con-
stitutional as an original proposition, and
intimating he should like to have an OPP
portunity to go into this question at length.
As the entire question is new to Justice
Jackson, in the sense that he has heard
none of the oral arguments, it is consid-
cred not improbable that more or less
argument on all sides will be permitted
Whatever the conclusion of Justice Jack
son after hearing the arguments, no rever-
sal of the opinion of the court in regard to
incomes from rents and public bonds is
possible, unless at least two of the members
of the court who participated in the for
mer decision, change their votes. The
court stood six to two in pronouncing that
part of the law unconstitutional. On the
remaining features of the law, the court
was divided and if all the members of the
court voted this time as they did before,
Mr.. Jackson's voice will decide the matter.
1t is understood tina Acknowledgement
Olney will appear in person in the presen-
tation of the Government side of the
question, as it is probable he will be sup
ported by Assistant Acknowledgement
Whitney. Mr. Choate will also again be
the principal speaker for, the app, ants.

DIED ON THE KUEN YUEN,
Commander Krohn Struck by
a Japanese Ball While
RaIlying His Men.
All His Property Confiscated by
the Chinese Because He
Lost In Battle.

PHENIXVILLE, PA, May 5.-Chaun-
cey Krohn of the Phoenix Iron Works OF
this place has received intelligence that
his Hongkong brother, Commander Ger
hard Krohn of the Chinese navy, was NOR
tally wounded on board his vessel, the
Kuen Yuen, in the naval engagement
with the Japanese fleet in the Gulf of Pei
Chi Ii, near Port Arthur, in February.
Before he was wounded he gave orders to
one of his lieutenants to man gun. The
lieutenant refused to obey, when Command
er Krohn manned the gun himself, but
was soon MORALLY wounded by an explod-
ing shell. He seated himself on the trunion,
and although he was blinded, held his eye
lids open with his fingers so he could see
and endeayored to rally his men. But
still they refused to obey orders, many of
them jumping overheard. The Kuen
Yuen had every gun dismantled and was
struck 400 times during the battle.
Krohn was taken on board junk and
was removed to the British Hospital at
Hongkong, where he died two days after
the fight and was inferred in the foreign
cemetery there.
Gerhard Krohn left this country seven
years ago and joined General Won Hanne-
ken and went into the Chinese service,
where they were employed in reconstruct
ing the army and navy of that country
after the German plan. The property of
Commander Krohn was confscated at his
death, even to his wearing apparel Medals
and private goods were claimed by the
Chinese authorities to indemnify the Gov
eminent for his defeat at the battle of Pei
Ching while in their service.

M. Depew has returned from his trip to
Detroit Talking of his journey, he said /:
While in the West I talked with MANY

GENERAL cALLEJA EXPLAINS.
He Says He Did Not Hare Troops Enough
IN Cuba,

MADRID, SPAIN, May General Call
Ella, formerly captain general of Cuba, has
arrived here from Havana. In an inter-
view he stated he was aware of the begin
ming of the uprising in Cuba and was in
formed as to the movements of the filibus-
terers in the United States and the Sepa-
ratists in Cuba.
He was, however, powerless to prevent
the rising in the eastern end of the island,
owing to the want of organized troops and
the scarcity of war material. He had only
5000 soldiers and 1000 raw recruits, force
not adequate to garrison the towns let
alone to take the field against the rebels.
Though he was aware that filibustering
expeditions were being organized in Hayti,
Tampa, Key West and Costa RIGA and
elsewhere he had only seven inferior gun
boats to watch 400 leagues of coast line.
General Calleja added that he believed
Marshal de Campos would speedily pacify
the island. The property privilege in Cuba.
he declared, had forced many starving men
TO join the rebels.

LONDON, ENG, May 5.-The Times has
dispatches from Peking saying the fact
that the Emperor has ratified the treaty of
peace with japan is known to only few
Chinese. No edict in regard to the matter
has been issued. Prince Kung, president
of the Tsung-iY amen, urged the En-
peror to ratify the treaty.
A Hongkong dispatch 10 the Times states
that the Governor of Formosa says It's ces.

lion. He declares he has lost all control
of the soldiers and that foreigners must
save themselves. The leader of the Black
Flags has appealed to his men to carry out
his original orders to prevent the japanese
from landing on the island.
Placards written by the Literati have
been posted in conspicuous places and cir
culated among the people, calling upon
them to resist the japanese, and saying
that if the island is to be ceded to any ma

Britain.

Japan agrees to renounce possession of the
