Don M. Dickinson VIII Not Discuss the
situation. However.
Washington, Oct. 13.--Don NJ. Dick
inson is In Washington with commit
tee to look after the interests of Mich
igan in securing a more rapid mall SER
vice.
Mr. Dickinson's name has been spIk-
en- of recently as the one referred to by
Sir Lionel Sackville West in his PAM
phlet as the member OF Clevelani's cab
met responsible for the minister's sum
mary dismissal.
Mr.. Dickinson was asked today as TO
the facts in the case. He said:
LAS the incident occurred when /
was member of the cabinet do not
feel at liberty to discuss 1t. But as 10
Sir Lionel Sackville West, have no
hesitation in saying that he Is now. and
always has been, an internal ass"
Mr.. Dickinson was asked fol- his
views on Venezuela and Cuba, as 1t
had been stated of late that he report
ed an advanced position on these ques-
tons among the leaders of his party.
He said he did not dare to so into the
matter at length. The developments
of no distant day would speak more elo-
quently than words. He referred 10 the
fact that Daniel Webster had recog-
nized the independence of Greece many
years before that country had actually
secured complete independence, and in
those days Webster had been accused
of "Jingoism."
Ex-Congressman Weadock, who is In
the Michigan party. added to Mr.. Dick
inson's statement that 1t is recognized
principle of international law that
struggling people should be recognized
as belligerants as soon as they showed
their ability to resist the established
government. This was not recogni-
ton Of them as nation. but as a peo-
pie, entitled to the rights of civilized
warfare. The Cubans were entitled to
1t now. and the question of their recog-
milton as nation will come after
ward.

W,
Killed by an Officer
Boise, Idaho, Oct. 14.-Reports reach
ed here today that Hank Anderson and
Samuel Brisbow were killed at Della
mar. 1t appears that Brisbow Is likely
to recover. A Statesman special gives
the following:
The tragedy occurred Sunday even
ing. Anderson and Brisbow were un-
til recently partners in the livery bust
ness at Delamar. They quarreled over
a settlement, and 1t Is supposed the
shooting grew out of a revival of the
business difficulty. Anderson and Bris-
bow met in front of Tom Halls saloon,
and few words passed, when Ander-
son suddenly whipped out a revolver
and commenced firing at Brlsbow. He
fired three shots, one of which passed
through the right lung and lodged I'M
der the shoulder blade.
Constable Pascoe at once deputized a
man named Scadden, and the two pro-
ceeded to Anderson's house. Anderson
appeared at the door with a revolver
In his hand and told them he never
would be taken alive.
Scadden and Pascoe then retreatei,
the latter armed himself with shotgun
loaded with buckshot and the two again
started after Anderson. They proceed
ed short distance in the direction of
Anderson's house, when their man APP
peared. He was told to throw up his
hands, and complied. A moment after
ward, however, he lowered his lands
and pulled his revolver. Leyeling the
weapon at Pascoe, he said:
9TH be id If I do"
Pascoe raised his gun and fired a
load of buckshot, taking effect in An
derson's abdomen and stomach. Ander-
son reeled, but before he fell he fired
three or four shots at Pascoe, none OF
which took effect. Anderson fell and
died in about 10 minutes.
A coroner's inquest was held today
and Pascoe was exonerated. At last
reports Brisbow was improving, and
will probably recover.

the speculation in gold shares which
have lately become quite reckless and
led to a great increase OF accommoda-

banks. London banks finally refused
to discount these bills. Fear OF this
action led continental and London
banks to contracting accommodation
bills and resulted in a heavy fall in
nearly all departments. The scare last
ed till Wednesday afternoon. when
buying on behalf of Paris and South

ket Is still restless.

Philadelphia. Oct. 14.-Subscriptions
to the Philadelphia city popular 8 per
cent 81, 200, 900 loan were opened today.
Subscriptions may be made for any
amount from 800 UP to the aggregate
of the loan, but it is hoped and expect
ed that the people who desire to in
vest small amounts will invest their
savings in these securities. From the
fact that previous loans of the same
kind have been largely taken in small
amounts, 1t is thought that people of
small means will subscribe literally in
the present case.
