WILL HE WEAR STRIPES ]? Speculation as to the Disposition
 of Bier. HE IS STILL UNSENTENCED And Is Under Guard at His Residence in New
 Orleans. NOW, HAS HE PURCHASED IMMUNITY By Turning States Evidence Pit Is Ger tain That He Had Some Inducements. He Was Armed With All
 the Documents
NOW, HAS HE PURCHASED IMMUNITY

New Orleans, Aug. 15.-Much specula- tion is indulged in TOW with reference to the final outcome of the case of Henry Bier, the well-known capitalist, who was convicted of perjury.
 He has not been sentenced, but is still under guard at his residence.
 As a general thing the state of Louis jana in criminal prosecutions holds out no inducements to secure states evi- denee though it is understood that if the state accepts such evidence it extends clemency to those who were participants in the crime, but who, by their evidence, assists the state in securing convictions. It is pretty certain some inducements were held out by Bier to make confes- sion. which was later backed up by testi- mony before the grand jury duplicating Maurice J. Hart in his crime, and there is little doubt that immunity has been guaranteed Bier and he will never go to states prison.
 Bier was a thorough business man. Every letter, telegram, check, memoran- dunn or receipt that related to any trans action in which he had an interest was religiously preserved, and when he went before the grand jury with his confession he was armed at all points with the proofs required to corroborate his state DnpOtS

MISSISSIPPI NEGROES
Are Preparing to Make Good Showing at the
 Atlanta Exposition.

Jackson, Miss, Aug. 15.-Misslssippi has taken little interest and no stock in the great exposition that opens at At lanta next month as a state, though thousands of her citizens are going to see it. The negroes of the state have, how ever, an organization of commissioners who are busy getting up an exhibit and report great success At a meeting of the commissioners held here last night it developed, according to a circular let ter issued today, that exhibits were re- ported from over half the counties of the state covering wide range of articles. Womens work will be represented by needle work, painting, musical compo- stions and homework, preserving, etc. The men have specimens of carpentry some live stock, agricultural products industrial work and quite a number of useful inventions, several in steam and electrical apparatus, brick work, one claiming to be self-acting, or perpetual motion. Boys are also represented by miniature boats. engines and other in- genious works. The Georgia Pacific has promised to haul all exhibits free of charge

$ .UBMITTED TO A JURY
Whf ,erdict Is That the Defendants Must S End Existence in Prison.
MARSHALL DlSCLAIMS PREMEDITATIoN
The Others Are Silent-The Scene Was Pa- thetic-Dinkins' Family Acquiesced. There Is No Hope or Chance
 of Pardon.

Jackson, Miss, Aug. 15.-The following is received from telephone from Brandon:
 By agreement of counsel Marshal, Fox and Coleman came into court this morn ing, pleaded guilty to the charge of mur- dering Dinkins and were sentenced to the penitentiary for life.
 The case was submitted to an agreed jury, which returned the verdict as above stated.
 When asked by the court if they had anything to say why sentence should not be pronounced upon them Marshall arose and stated he desired to make state ment. Marshall said they did come to Brandon to kill Dinkins, but to receive retraction, but that the killing was caused by Dnkns' action. At the time Marshall approached him he made a demonstration and the shooting com menced.
 Fox and Coleman had nothing to say. The prisoners then stood up and were sentenced to the penitentiary for life by Judge Mayors. The scene was most pa- thetic. and great emotion was shown by the friends of the prisoners. They were a once taken back to jail
 The verdict is regarded as a triumph of law over evidence, and stamps for all time the killing of Dinkins as one of the foulest murders in the states history.
 This sentence of life imprisonment was agreed to simply because the defendants saw the gallows staring them in the face.
 The Dinkins family accepted the propo- sition on humane grounds There is no hope or chance of pardon.

THE QUEENS SPEECH.
It Is Devoid of Any Remarkable features-Chi-
 neSe and Armenian Questions.

London, Aug. 15.-The house of com mons met at o'clock this afternoon and was at once summoned by the usher of black rod to the house of lords to hear the reading of the queens speech which was as follows: My Lords and Gentlemen:
 The communications which I receive from foreign powers assure me of contin- uance of their good will. I am happy to say that no international complication has arisen in any quarter that is calcu- lated to endanger the peace of Europe. The war between China and Japan, which was in progress at the opening of the last session, has been brought to close by peace which trust will be en- during. I have observed strict neutral ity during the war and have not taken any action in respect thereto except such as appeared likely to be favorable to a termination of hostilities.
 l deeply regret to say that most atro- ciouS outrages upon body of English missionaries have been reported in the province of Fukien, China. In reply to an earnest representation addressed to the Chinese government by my direction active measures, which l trust will prove effective, are being taken to punish the murderers and all who were in any de- gree responsible for these crimes.
 Internal troubles which have broken out in the Armenian district of Asiatic Turkey have been attended with horrors which have moved the indignation of the Christian nations of Europe generally and my people especially.
 My ambassador and the ambassadors of the emperor of Russia and president of the French republic, acting together, have Suggested to the government of the sultan the reforms which in their opn- ion are necessary to prevent the recur- renee of constant disorder. These pro- posals Ire now being considered by the sultan, and I am anxiously awaiting his decision.
 resolution has been passed by both houses of the parliament of the Cape of Good Hope proposing that the adjacent crown colony of Bechuanaland should be incorporated with Cape Colony. I signi- fled that I was willing to consider favor ably an act for the purpose, provided it contained proper safeguards to my in- terests and those of my native subjects, especially as regards their lands, the liq- uor traffic and the maintenance of satis- factory assurance on these matters. An act has been passed by the cape parlia- ments which l have every reason to ex- pect will fulfill my requirements:
 Gentlemen of the house of commons, the estimates for the service year which were not voted by the last parliament will be laid before you.
 My lords and gentlemen, at this season of the year it will probably be found more convenient to defer until another season the consideration of any impor- tant legislative matters except those necessary to provide for administrative charges of the year.

lot Harry MeClanaugh was nominated for attorney-generala also on the first bal lot, and Robert F. Graham of Eastern Shore, Wyoming county, for comptroller. The Lowndes faction dominated the con- yention. That was shown in the choice of temporary chairman, who was John C. Rose of Baltimore, by a vote of 6Ss4 to 47A for Westcott, the Malster candidate.
 Seven hundred persons came down from Baltimore on a special chartered steamer to 'whoop 1t up" for Lowndes. It was expected that a financial plank would be incorporated in the platform, but the committee decided to leave that feature for the nominee of the conven- ton to handle in his letter of acceptance.
 A paragraph favoring protective tar fir on revenue basis had been prepared, but it was omitted, and the platform is confined entirely to questions of state rnliticc

THE WALLER CASE.
The Temporizing Attitude of the French Au-
 thorities Continues

Washington. Aug. 15.-The United States government is meeting a fresh irn- pediment in its efforts to get at the factS preliminary to the imprisonment of ex- Consul Waller by the French authori- ties. The temporizing attitude of the French ministry in not furnishing Ann bassador Eustls a copy of the evidence on which Waller was convicted in Mada- gascar has been supplemented by refu- sal on their part to permit him to visit Waller in the prison at Marseilles, all though he has made more than ten ef- forts to secure the privilege, with view to expediting the case Information to this effect has reached the state depart ment, but no explanation of the refusal can be obtained. it is said. by the ex- istence of the strict prison rules to which Waller is subjected. As the matter stands at present MT. Eustis has en- countered at almost every point a seem ing unwillingness on the part of the French authorities to assist him in his investigation of the case.
