an unexpected and sensational mann er,
which led to his arrest and subsequent
terrible disclosures.
Wilde today was more subdued, although
he smiled once or twice at certain ques-
tions. Taylor charged with having acted
as o, procurer for the author and dra-

Indifferent manner as when arraigned last
week, and was evidently not as deeply
impressed with the seriousness of the
charges brought against him as Wilde.
Sir Edward Clarke again appeared for
Wilde ana two lawyers acted as counsel
for Taylor.
The prisoners are making a desperate
fight. Their lawyers today delayed prJ-
ceedings in every possible way, and the
examination of the accused promises to
be protracted affair. Taylor's lawyer
said he would recall all the witnesses ex-

WASHINGTON, April 1l.-An authori-
tative statement that terms of peace are
being negotiated between Japan and
China has been secured from official
sources. The statement is made in orde

$1.33: fourth, permanent occupation of
Port Arthur and immediate contiguous
territory; fifth. a new JapanChina treaty
opening the interior of China to COM
smerce. The money indemnity $ express
ed in Chinese taels instead of Japanese

stead of coin. 1t is considered silver
money. While the value at $l.33 would
be equivalent to $399, 000.0 600 in silver, it
is said the actual value would be between
$2lO 600. 900 and 1920, 00o. 00c in gold. The

NEW YORK. April i1.-A movement

men who are behind the movement have
shops in the street. The reason they want
the change. they say is that the reputa-

been spread from one end of the land to
the other. They picture the business of
the Bowery ten years ago with the present
and show that it is 50 per cent less now.
They lay it all to the name. The first

The mangled remains of A. Mcbride
of the Missouri Pacific lies at his late

Mr.. MrBride left home well on yester-
day morning and the next information
Mrs Mcbride received of her husband

had been instantly killed
Mr.. Mcbride was an old railroad man

yesterday he ran out of Wichita on

it is supposed killing him instantly and
mangling his body in most horrible
manner.

pened. Mack was a good railroad man
and as experience usually makes train
men more careful they were surprised
as we'll as grieved when it was an
nounced that Mr.. Mcbride had lost his
life by falling from the train.
The remains were brought in on the
D. m, train from Hutchinson, and
were met a the depot by large num-
Der OF railroad men and soldiers. The
deceased was a member of the Rail-
way conductors association, the Grand
Army, the Order of Red Men and was
also d member OF the Masonic order
members of which orders were at the
train.
The remains were given over to IN
dertaker Gill and the body was prepar-
ed before taken D. his late residence.
None of the railroad men who came
in on the evening train were able to tell
how Mr.. Mcbride came to fall from the
train. He was on the front next the
engine, and no one knew he had fallen
until the caboose had passed over his
body.
Roadmaster Dan Boyle who was on
the rear end of the caboose was the
first TO see him, and he signalled for the
train to stop, not thinking then that the
dead man was one of the crew. The
