There Is Prospect of a Speedy Settiemen,
of the Sensational Colt Van
Alien Scandal

PROVIDENCE, r. l., Nov. 11.-There is
probability that the Coit-Van Allen case,
which has become famous, will be termi-
mated at once, for the information was
given out from reliable source to-day
that within the week efforts would be
made to prevent any further develop
ments, as both parties had by mutual con-
sent agreed to hush up matters. It is
claimed that very influential man who is
warm friend of both Colonel and Mrs.
Colt has striven to bring about this condi-
ton of affairs, and that it has received the
approval of all parties concerned. This
rumor is rendered doubly significant ow-
ing to the quickness with which the sup
posed strong evidence which Colonel Colt
had secured in Vermont was withheld
and among those in position to know it
is claimed that all parties have agreed to a
compromise.

Kisses FOR DUNRAYE n,
The Indignation Extended to the
Floor Of the New York Stock
Exchange.
Ex.Commodore Smith and C. Oliver
Iselin Were Enthusiastically
Cheered.

NEW YORK. n. Y, Nov. 1.-THE in
dignation prevailing in yachting circles in
this country against Lord Dunraven over
his actions IN his futile attempt to win the
America cup extended to the floor of the
New York Stock Exchange this morning
and the name of Lord Dunraven was
loudly hissed while cheers were given for
ex-Commodore James D. Smith and G.. Oil
yer IseEn for the stand they have taken in
the matter.
Before the opening of the Exchange
members gathered about in small mum bers
On the floor and discussed the question,
and strong were the terms used denuncia-
tory of Lord Dunraven.
About IL 80 O'Clock, when ex-Commodore
Smith appeared upon the floor of the Ex-
change, he was surrounded by a large
number of prominent brokers, who shook
him by the hand and commended him tor
his rebuke to the English Earl. Business
was suspended for the time. Suddenly
Broker R. H. Halstead in stentorian tones
shouted, "What's the matter with Com
modore Smith?" A thousand voices
vociferously replied, "He's all right"
Then some one yelled, whats the mat
ltI Will W W. lScllll dHNl III
tones the assemblage assured themselves
that he was all right, too. The health of
Commodore Smith and c.. o. Iselin was
then proposed, and the applause in re-
sponse made the famous building tremble.
At this period some one or the floor
called out: whats the matter with Dun
raven?" There was mighty storm of
hisses for reply, which clearly showed
the contempt of the members of the New
York Stock Exchange for the Earl of Dun
raven.
A special to the Herald from Boston
says: The feeling here against Dunraven
is bitter, and it is the almost unanimous
opinion of every yachtsman that he should
be expelled from the New York Yacht
Club. His charges no one believes, and
even Dunraven's friends here say that his
conduct cannot be understood. Boston
yachtsmen will uphold the Defender people
in refusing TO again meet Dunraven in
match. A prominent yacntsman here
says that Howard Gould should not sail
his twenty-rater Niagara in any race Dun
raven S twenty-rater Audrey may enter in
British waters.

1T Is Evidently Pleasing to the Papers
Of Germany and 1ustrid.
BERLIN, GERMANY, Nov. 1.-THE lead
ing newspapers OF Berlin comment upon
the speech delivered by Lord Salisbury
at the Lord Mayors banquet in London as
follows:
The Vossiche Zeitung says: Lord Sails
bury's speech is free from optimism, but
it is calculated to raise the deep-sunken
hopes OF a peaceful solution of the con-
fusion in the East.
The National Zeitung says: Without
any attempt al deception in regard to the
dangers of the position, the speech still
has pacifying effect.
The Kreuz Zeitung says: We are glad
TO hear reliable expression of the solidar-
ity of the powers.
The Reichshote says: We sincerely re-
joice to find a statesman expressing the
idea OF united Christendom gathered TO
protect civilized peace.
The North German Gazette says: The
speech proves the uncommon skill OF
diplomatic language, and speaks Of the
future in manner leaving it open 70 all
possibilities, as statesman ought to do,
oot knowing what eventuaiities may arise.
The Lokal Anzeiger says: The speech

all Americans, and every opportunity they
get openly insult them.
This feeling is very strong among the
Spanish soldiers, and they are constantly
on the alert to get into quarrel as pre-
text for attacking an American Then
officers do not even make the least effort
to stop them from going to excess; in fact
secretly at present, they rather applaud
such actions.
prominent American planter states
that it would be folly for any American to
wander around from the densely peopled
streets of Havana after dark, as they would
surely fall the victim of some Spanish
bullet, while even in the thickly crowded
streets he is constantly fronted with in
suit, so that if he is the least disposed to
fight he is soon engaged in a quarrel,
usually with fatal results.
The feeling against American news
paper correspondents is so strong that il
the fact were known even the highest au-
thority on the island would be unable to
save them. But that it is so meant that
they would be sentenced by court-martiaI
to be shot, but their death would be COM
passed in some secret manner without the
possibility of any blame being attached to
the authorities themselves.
The American residents are complaining
of the apathy of the authorities at Wash.
ington, as none of the other foreigners are
subjected to molestation, but the Span
iards doubtless think that the United
States Government will not take the
trouble to defend its citizens.

named Czizek, a member of the Omladina,
a secret revolutionary society that was
broken up by the authorities some months
ago, was released from prison a few days
ago under amnesty granted by Emperor
Francis Joseph to all political prisoners in
Bohemia. Shortly after his release he
committed suicide, and his funeral, which
took place to-day, was made the occasion
of riotous demonstrations. A great crowd,
estimated to number 10000 persons,
gathered at the cemetery and tried to pre-
vent the pronouncing of the benediction
over the remains, because Czized had been

in strong force, intervened to maintain

THE ScUTTLING OF SHIPS.
Premature Disclosures Prevent the New

Offenders

ST. JOHNS, N. F., Nov. n.-Not for
years has anything created as much ex-
citement in this island as the recent dis
closures in regard to the scuttling of ships
in Newfoundland waters. The police are
indignant at the premature disclosures, as
they are unable to cope with difficulty
owing to the fact that the suspects have
all been given ample warming by some
unknown person who must he high in the

DISAPPEARED AFTER AcQUITTAL
Young Hanson, Tried as Whfecapper Sup
posed to Have Become Victim
of NenroeS

PARIS, TEX, Nov. n.-R. H. Hanson. a
young man residing in Delta County, was
tried and acquitted in court here last week
of being connected with the organized band
of whitecappers in that county, or having
anything to do with the burning of the ne
gro church in the Glory neighborhood by
them several months ago.
Immediately after his acquittaI he de-
parted for home, but he never reached
there, and his disappearance is as strange
as if the earth had opened and swallowed
him. His people were here to-day in
search of him. Foul play is feared, as
many negroes thronged the courtroom
during the trial who were forced to fee
from that section during the whitecaps'
reign of terror some months ago. The
verdict was universally disapproved by the
negroes, who swore vengeance.

CANADA STOLE A MARCH,
Vessels on the Great Lakes Much
More Formidable Than
Expected.
Revenue Cutters Constructed in z
Manner to Be Available as
Cruisers.

OTTAWA, ONT, Nov. 11.-Another r
cause has arisen which may lead to inter
national trouble between the United States
and England. Considerable attention has
been attracted lately to the question of
the right OF the United States Government
to construct gunboats in the great lakes.
it being claimed that by the treaty of 1917
neither the United States nor Canada
should build vessels str onger than was
absolutely necessary for the regular reye-
nue. service. But inquiry on the part of
the United States authorities has shifted
the boot to another leg, and some of the
most sensational discoveries have been
made in the report of Commander Wake
man. The investigation shows that not
only has the Canadian Government been
building vessels many times stronger than
those used in the regular revenue service.
but OF sufficient strength and size to be
ranked as cruisers.
This late discovery shows a very clear
piece OF negligence on the part of the
United States authorities on the great
lakes. The true facts of the case have
been sent to Washington and it is ex-
pected that action will be taken immedi-
ately. The following description of one of
the new vessels has been sent to the NAVY
Department and clearly leaves no doubt
but that Canada has violated the treaty
The Constance and her sister ships have
the following dimensions: Length over
all. 125 feet; beam, 10 feet 6 inches: dentb
of hold, IL feet 3 inches; draught, 9 feet 6
inches.
But it is the following details which the
Federal authorities say is breach of the
treaty: All the vessels have extra heavy
steel plates and steel top sides. On the
main deck the house and engine COVERINGS
are of steel as well as the protected turtle
deck forward. The coal bunkers are car
ried along the side in order to protect both
boilers and engines.
They are armed with quick-fring guns
one aft and one forward, while Others NAV
be placed into position at short notice.
The most formidable weapon, however.
and one which in itself is sufficient to class
the vessels as cruisers, is the fact that in
addition to the other powerful methods of
protection, each is provided with a formid-
able ram bow, and experts pronounce these
rams as being especially strongly made
and well backed, as if for heavy service.
The authorities here refuse to make any
statements in regard to whether the treaty
has in way been broken, but in diplomatic
circles it is expected that serious conse-
auences are sure to arise before the mat
fer ia sattIed

HELD UP THE NIGHT AGENT
Two Robbers Secured Twenty
Thousand Dollars From
Wells, Fargo & Co.
They Entered the Office at the Colorado
Springs Depot and Secured
the Booty.

COLORADO SPRINGS, CoLo., Nov. IL
A most daring and successful hold-up took
place at the Santa Fe depot here tonight,
and for a second time within a few months
the Wells Fargo Express Company is
minus small-sized fortune, owing to rob-
berries in this vicinity.
The Chicago Limited of the Santa Fe,
due here at 9:42, pulled in and out on
time, and after its departure the night
agent busted himself as customary for a
time on the platform arranging matters
for later train. When he entered the
express office, which is located at one end
of the depot, he was suddenly confronted
by six-shooters in the hands of two men,
who ordered him to throw his hands up
and then commanded him to open the
safe. Both requests were complied with.
The robbers then rifled the safe, securing
some $4,000, and then disappeared. Be-
yond the fact that both the men were
small, no clew to their identity is known
at present
The night agents name was Kraut. A
package containing $4,000, which was not
in the safe, was first secured by the rob-
bers. After Kraut opened the safe an
other package of $4,000 was taken, but the
agent succeeded in keeping $35, 600 from
them by claiming that the robbers had
everything. The money was in currency
and was in transit to the Cripple Creek
gold camp. After taking the money the
robbers ordered Kraut to get into bed
and cover up his head. When he looked
out after few minutes they had disap-
peared, leaving no clew whatev er. The

the trail of the robbers.

Mrs. Parsons was the first speaker, and
she devoted the first hall of her talk to
review of the incidents connected with the
Haymarket massacre. Only once did she
approach the danger line when she said: :
''I would rather be consigned to the bot
tomless pitts of hell than walk the golden
streets of heaven with Judge Gary"
Inspector Shea tapped her on the shouI-

such language. There was a great COM

Oliver quieted the people with few judi
cious words.
