Negroes Not TO His Liking.

Washington. June 1S.-Wilberforce uni

try for the education of negroes, a few
days ago conferred the degree of l.. J.. d.

Mitchell of Wilberforce, declining the
honor.
Wilburforce university is conducted I'M
der the auspices of the African Methodist
Episcopal church and was founded by
Bishop d. A. Payne. The president has
recently shown the institution favors, and
1t was in return for these favors and in
recognition of his worth that the univer-
sity desired to confer upon him the hon
orary segree. President Cleveland recent
ly made a colored man lieutenant in the
army and detailed him as special instruct
or in military tactics Of the university.
Then, too, when a postmaster was to be
appointed at Wilburforce, Ohio, where the
institution is located, the president select
ed coored man Endorsed by the faculty
of Wilburforce. The president in his let
ter is said to have expressed his high APP
probation of the institution, but not be-
ing a college graduate and having de-
clined a similar honor from one of Ameri-

but consistent to adhere to that course.

CITY Treasurer of Omaha Admit
ted His Guilt.
HE WENT ON A BIG1 SPREE
Left a Note Saying The Hour Had Come
10 Die, but at Present Is Very
Much Alive.

Omaha, June 1S.-City treasurer Hen
ny Bollin is a defaulter. Experts are
checking his books. The facts of the
shortage became known this morning
and Bollin at once disappeared, leav-
ing a note to his family saying that the
hour had come for him TO die since he
was disgraced. His bondsmen, who are
liable to the amount of million dol
lars, set the police to looking for the
man as soon as he disappeared. To
night he was located in suburban
house, drunk. He surrendered without
a struggle. He is now in his bonds
mems hands. They asert they will give
him a chance and will settle his short
age in full
The rumors of alleged Irregularities
had their beginning a month ago when
Mr.. Bollin refused to allow the comp
troller to check up his books in compli
ance with a resolution of the city coun-
Gil. BOllin has lost considerable money
in stock speculation. Today, after the
police had surrendered Bollin to his
bondsmen, they called conference Of
the city officials. Bollin admitted that
he had drawn from the cash account,
but insisted that the deficiency could
not be more than $4,000.
At Z o'clock City Comptroller Olsen
had completed a hurried checking up
of Bollins accounts. The books indi-
Gated a shortage of $l53SS outside the
amount said to be lacking in the &C
count at the Midland State bank.

San Francisco. June 1s.-An evening pa
per says:
when the governments investigation
shall be held there will be no lack of tes-
timony TO show the culpability of the
Pacific Mail Company in the Colma

fore the hull and boiler inspectors, A. d.
Mcclellan has received a letter from his
brother, who has coast ranch in Mex
ico near the scene of the wreck. Ten of
the wrecked passengers are being cared
for by him, and their story of the wreck
corroborates all that has been said
against the management of the ship.
Mcclellan writes that, from the story told
by the survivors at his place, the wreck
was all due to Captain Taylor. Certain
it is adds the writer, that he made no at
tempt whatever to save the passengers
The government inquiry will be d.

A MISTAKE AS TO HER ATTITUDE
Great BTitains Ideas About Venezuela
Have Been Misinterpreted.

Washington, June 1S.-Sir Edward
Grays statement in parliament yesterday
that Ambassador Bayard had been in
formed that Great Britain would consent
to the arbitration of the Venezuelan
question under certain conditions creates
some surprise among officials here, as
Sir Edwards statement is calculated to
show that Great Britain has accepted the
suggestion of the United States, whereas
it has been declined. The desire of Ven
ezuela is to arbitrate the entire boundary
question: and the efforts of Bayard on be-
half of the United States was in this di-
rection. But the answer of Great Brit
ain, as given in the Associated Press dis
patch at the time, was that no arbitration
was admissible as regards certain terri
tory which Great Britain asserts is indie
fensibly hers, though she offered to ar
bitrate concerning certain territory to
which apparently Great Britain regards
her title as less clear. The practical effect
of this was to reject the only proposition
the United States had presented.

RUINED FARMERS AND INVESTORS
Misdeeds of n Colorado Finaucier Win
Cause Unending Litigation.

Denver, June 1S.-President Henry ].
Aldrich of the Colorado Security Com
pany, who disappeared five weeks ago,
is believed to be sojourning in Mexico.
1t is claimed that his hasty departure was
due to the fact that eastern creditors
were pressing him closely. The opera
lions of the company embraced loans ag-
gregating $1,5O0,O0O to 100000. 1t is said
Aldrich, as trustee, has not accounted for
hundreds of thousands of dollars. 1t is
believed that Aldrich has not appropriate
ed single dollar to his own use, but in
order to protect the company from embar-
rassment occasioned by falling values he
guaranteed both principal and interest on
all loans and applied money wrongfully
to meet the obligations. In consequence
of his transactions, it is said, several hun
dred Colorado farmers will lose their
lands and many eastern people their in
vestments. A vast amount of litigation
will be required to straighten out the
muddled affairs of the company. of which
T. G. Patterson is receiver.

TURKEY TRIPLES WITH THE POWERS
Europe May Be Forced 20 Take Charge
of the Armenian Investigation.

Constantinople. June 1S-The Turkish
government has made a fresh reply to
the note of the powers outlining the re-
forms insisted upon for Armenia. The
porte accepts the principle of the proposed
reforms, but requests that several points
be discussed before any action is taken.
The Turkish government expresses the
hope that the sultan's sovereign right will
not be prejudiced. The impression which
prevails here is that this last reply is
tantamount to a refusal, and it is feared
the powers will adopt more urgent meas
ures to enforce their demands.
