Affects the Waller Case.

Mr.. Crammond Kennedy, the attorney
who has presented the Waller case to
the state department, on being shown
the Paris cable, said that the effect OF
the treaty undoubtedly would be to pre-
judic6 and perhaps to dnnihilate tha
Waller concession, so far as the French
authorities could effect that result. But
it remained to be seen, Mr.. Kennedy
said. what the United States govern
ment would say respecting the prejudic-
ing of the concession to an American
citizen sentenced in 1894
Mr.. Kennedy is of the opinion that this
government viii not allow American in
tereStS to suffer by the treaty. He points
out that the language Republic does
not assume the responsibility for the
concessions heretofore granted does
not amount to an iota in wipinS out the
Waller concessions, though its obvious
purpose is to withhold all recognition
from this concession.
He points out that the treaty Of 1885
between Madagascar and the United
States expressly provided for concessions
to the citizens Of this country. That fea-
ture of the new treaty which makes
French diplomatic officials IS represen-
tatives of the interests Of Madagascar

NEARING ITS CLOSE.
DURRANT CASE WILL PROBABLY
GO TO THE JURY BY FRIDAY.
Judges Charge to the Jury VIII BE
Long and Observation-Disclosures of
the Mysterious Letter Too Re-
markable For Use.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 26.-The trial
of Theodore Durrant is nearing it's
close and the case will probably go to
the jury next Thursday or Friday
Attorney Dickinson for the defense
has said he will conclude on Tuesday
morning, to which day the case has
been continued, and Attorney Deuprey
also for the defense, will probably
finish for Durrant on Tuesday after
noon. District Attorney Barnes ex-
poets to begin his argument on We'd
nesday morning and to complete his
closing address the same day.
Judge NIurphy's charge will be long
and exhaustive and its delivery may
occupy a day The exhibits are nu-
merous and in the case of some will
require much study on the part of the
jury. This is particularly true of the
comparison of the notes of Durrant
and those made by Student Chaser,
with whom Durrant quiZZed. 1t is
understood that the district attorney
will parallel the two sets of notes and
argue that Durrant's could not be
more like Glaser's without having been
copied verbatim. The district attor-
ney will, it is said, also attack the
roll call, which the attorneys for the
defense asserted had been proved TO
be accurate. and will call attention to
the error in marking Student Garvin
present when he was. in fact, absent.
The jury will be asked to judge for
itself as to the alleged similarity be-
tween the handwriting of Rev. J..
George Gibson and that on the package
enclosing Blanche Lamont's rings.
The defense abandoned it's intention
of placing experts on the stand to en-
deavor to show this alleged similar

1t is said Durrant makes the statement
that he saw the last details of the
murder and saw Rev. George Gibson
and another man prominent in church
affairs bending over the body of
Blanche Lamont. The Examiner says
that although Durrant required his
lawyers not to open the letter until he
was convicted, they have opened it,
and so remarkable were the state
ments it contained that even they did
not believe them and refrained from
using them in Durrant's defense.

HEAVY LOUISVILLE FAILURE.
BamberEer, Bloom IS Co. Make an
Assignment.

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Oct. 26.-Bamber-
ger. Bloom & Co., the wholesale dry
goods firm OF this city, made an assign
ment at o'clock this afternoon to the
Columbia Finance and Trust company.
AT the same time the individual mem
bers of the firm, Levi Bamberger, Of
New York. Julius Bamberger. and Lee
Bloom of this city. made assignments Of
all of their property to the same trust
company for the benefit of their credi-
tors. No schedule of assets and liabli-
ties has been filed, but it is thought the
liabilities will amount to 81 10000 and
that the nominal assets Will equal that
amount.
In 1889. the firms store was destroyed
by fire, their business interrupted
and there was long vexatious and
costly litigation. Then came the bad
years of 1892, 1898 and 1894 and the strain
was too great for the resources of the
firm and today the assignment came.

known as scarcely without rival west

BLOWN 30 Pieces.
Boiler Explosion on Tug Boat
Four Killed.


CHICAGO, Oct 26.-The tug boat
Morford, OF the Durham company,
while towing the steamer Iona, blew hel
boiler shortly before 4 o'clock this
morning in the river near Seventeenth
street. Four men were killed and
others seriously injured.
The dead:
Charles Dirk, engineer.
Roy McLain, cook.
John Erickson, fireman
Daniel NIcReal, lineman.
The injured:
John Cullinan, captain.
The above five men were blown in
as many directions and the heavy
boiler was lifted into the air and shot
through the wall of the elevator IF, y
which is located on the shore a short
distance from the scene of the accident.
Fortunately no one was injured by the
flying steel.
rhe tug o. B. Green, which was also
towing the Iona, was raked fore and
aft and it is considered little short of
a miracle that none Of her crew were
killed Several of the crew were hurt.
Immediately after the explosion the
tug sank to the bottom of the river.
At the time of the explosion Captain
Cullinan was in the pilot house. He
was blown some distance away, and
was taken out of the water in an IN
conscious condition The fire depart
ment was called out and the work of

Wednesday will be a great day in the
history of Utah. County chairmen are
reporting that in almost every hamlet
in the territory preparations are being
made for the reading Of the Demo
cratic address adopted by the great
convention. Both the party workers
and the people are showing much IN
terest and the best of readers have
been secured in every place for the
purpose of having the great issue pre-
scented in proper form to the people OF
the territory. ,.,..
Meantime feeling is running hlgh.
AS far as can be learned the Demo
cratic ranks are not waverlng- 1Iie
party is united on the issue ana Is ue-
termined to win or lose fighting hke
men for the greatest issue that was
ever brought before the people OF
Utah. They believe that there will be
no dishonor for them and no honor tof
the Republican party in a deteat on
such an issue. But on all SIDES are
heard expressions of confidence in the
honesty and ability of the Mormon
people to meet the issue that mas been
thrust upon them.
There will be a, very heavy vote
against the constitution. Probably the
heaviest vote will come from this city
and county, where it is found that
very heavy minority Will scratch out
the word yes on their ballots, while
large number will vote neither for
nor against the instrument, allowing
their ballots to go in without scratch
ing either yes or no and thus null
lifyfng them. a number will do this
Intentionally, while it is believed that
another large number will do it ignor-
antly, casting the straight ballot with
out looking ait the bottom, and others
viii scratch out the word at the top
instead of at the bottom as is neces-
sary.
A great deal of sentiment against
statehood has been started by the
latest issue that has come UP among
all classes Of people. That is the prin-
cipal thing that will hurt the consti-
tuition in this city and in Ogden and
Provo. 1t will have its effect also in
the outside counties. But there is an
other thing that will result in a. much
larger vote against the constitution.
Ever since its adoption there has been
a very general movement among this
farmers to vote against the instrument
on account of fear that it viii raise
taxation in the state. This movement
was not made openly, but there was a
great deal of quiet talk and the result
is now that men from a number of
the southern and northern counties
come to the city with the intelligence
that there will be some danger from
their sections.
1t is not believed among the poll
ticians that the constitution will be de-
feated, but it is thought that the vote
against it will prove formidable. There
is now an attempt on the part of some
to institute an organized movement to
defeat the instrument
