ARAlnat TIM Priaonar

Another Link In tn, Chsin of Evidence
Against tho Prisoner.
San Francisco, Cal, Sept. IA few
weeks ago Captain Of Detectives Lees
said that If a witness could be found
who would supply the necessary proof
that any or all of Blanche Lamont's
rings were In possession Of Theodore
Durrant before they were returned to
Mrs. Noble in so mysterious a manner,
the last and strongest link in the chain
Of evidence against the young medical
student would have been forged.
This witness has been found. He is
a business mana man Of unquestion-
able integrity, and his name is W. j.
Phillips. His testimony will be corrob-
orative Of that Of Adolph Oppenheim,
the pawnbroker, who testified at the
preliminary hearing that Durrant en-
tered his place of business q few days
after the murder of Blanche Lamont,
and tried to pawn one of her rings.
Phillips says he was near the pawn
shop at the time, and saw Durrant
when he entered the place.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 14.-Consul
Sprague, writing from Gibraltar on the
9th of August to the state department,
reports the departure from that port Of
the small sloop Spray, in which her own
er, Captain Joshua Slocum, started

of much curiosity and of considerable
hospitable attention among the naval
authorities at Gibraltar. Slocum says
In letter that he sailed the distance
from Boston to Gibraltar in thirty-twO
days and could have made better time.
He had intended continuing his jour
ney through the Red sea, but had decid
ed to change his course on account of
his fear of thieves after passing the
Suez canal and to go via the Cape of

NEW DEMAND ON SPAIN:
Protection Asked for American Missile

Protection Asked for American Mission
aries on Cnrolin-s.
Chicago. Ill, Sept. 14.-A special to
the Daily News from Washington says:
Secretary Olney has made a new de-
mand upon Spain. 1t is expected that
a prompt compliance will follow, as
Spain has done twice before in the last
few months. This time Minister Taylor
has been instructed to demand from
Spain protection for American mission
aries in the Caroline islands. This
question is several years old, commenc.
ing when our missionaries were psrse.
cuted and driven out Of the Caroline IL
lands by natives. Spain exercises au-
thority over the islands, and full repara-
ton was demanded for the outrage.
Spain responded by the payment Of ST.
800 indemnity, and promising protec-
ton to the missionaries in the future.
But by failing to stand by her declara-
ton to protect Spain has made it i'm
possible for the missionaries to safely
return to the islands. The present de-
mnnd is that this promise Of protection
be carried out in satisfactory manner.

on the subject of international yacht

served, that If the rules prevented the
New York committee from declaring

CATHOLICISM IN MEXICO.
Criticism of Liberal Papers on the Con

Criticism of Liberal Papers on the Com
dition of tho Church.
City Of Mexico, Sept. 14.-El Partido,
Liberal, to-day says the papal envoy
can only be received here in his ecclesi-
astic, and not in any diplomatic capac-
ity. He will be made much Of by ig-
norant clericals, who display most as
founding inability to comprehend that
modern Mexico is not the Mexico Of the
Romanist domination.
Ell DemOcrata, also a Liberal paper,
thinks the clericals have been entirely
shorn of their power to harm, and the
government acts wisely in employing
the church to build up and conserve the
social fabric, for the great danger of
the country is its real and fundamental
lack Of religious unity-the people in
power being agnostics, and the very
lowest tribes Of Indians are fetisch
worshipers. Thus 1t is important for
Mexico that Catholicism should be
made the bond Of national unity.

A TRADE IN WIvEs.-Forty years
ago J. II. Noeiy, wealthy citizen of
Allegany county, n. Y. fell in love with
the wife of neigabor. 1t seems that
she must have approved OF this, and
that there must have been similar at
tachment between Mrs. Neely aud her
neighbor's husband, for she left her own
husband and took up with the former,
and the neighbor's wife abandoned her
husband for Neely. The prominence
of the two families, and the high char
actcr they had alwaos borne in the
community, made this trading OF wives
and husbands fall like a thunderbolt
among the staid and reputable
dwellers in that locality, but the chang
ed relations of the two families were
boldly and openly maintained. Neely,s
son Jaiaes, overcome with the shame Of
the transaction, left home, and up to a
short time ago nothing had ever been
heard from him.
Some time after the exchange of
wives Neely obtained divorce from
his legal wife. As years passed the
lduilItSS, S!tS tSul@liJ Sh'"5.i,
their former standing in society. Child
ren were born to Neely by his neigh
boris wife, and they are among The
most respected and reputable people in
the county, and are married and have
families of their own. Neely died three
months ago, rich and lamentcd. He
had during his lifetime given By deed
or nominal price the greater part of his
property to his children, who live in
that vicinity. The property of which
be died possessed. amounting to about
1000, he disposed of by will to the
same children. About month ago the
surrogate OF Allegheny county was
surprised to receive letter from James
Neely, the long-missing son OF the old
farmer. requesting copy ofhis fathers
will. The letter was from town ii
Nebraska. The copy was forwarded,
and now the son has engaged lawyers
to contest the will, founding his claim
to its bequests on the question OF the
validity of the divorce his father OBJ
tained from his mother many years ago.
