ties upon which he had imposed his

panying the order for the arrest OF the

JOHN EXAMINES HIS BOOTY
Ornaments the English Bullies Took From
Poor King Primpeh.

London, March 23.-Some days ago
Sir Francis Scott deposited at the offices
of the crown agents for the colonies
such of the gold and jewels belonging
to King Prempeh as the British were
a BILE to lay hands upon and to bring
to this country in respect Of the war in
demnity due from Ashanti in connec-
ton with the recent and former expedt-
ton to Coomassie. These jewels were
kept under lock and key until yester-
day afternoon, when they were laid out
on a large table at the office for the in
spection of Mr.. Chamberlain and the
heads of the various departments OF the
colonial Office. Sir Montagu Omman-
ney, senior crown agent for the colonies,
informed press representative that, in
Guiding some bags of gold dust which
formed part of the consignment, he did
not think the intrinsic value of the en-
tire property would exceed s., 600; but,
of course, rare and curious examples OF
barbaric skill and splendor often had
a value of their own far in excess Of
that indicated by the weight Of the
precious metals of which they were COM
posed. The whole collection, however.
was far smaller than that brought home
after the Ashanti war, some specimens
of which were to be found at the I'm
perial Institute and British Museum,
while other articles were disposed of
to dealers in curiosities, and the residue
of the ornaments went TO the smelling
pot.
1t was, said the crown agent, a no.
table fact that, whereas the former
Jewels were all of solid heavy gold,
those brought home IS the result of the
more recent expedition were mostly
hollow and consequently much less val
liable, although composed of the purest
gold. The most striking feature of the
collection is a crown, probably that
worn by the monarch. The body OF the
| crown is made of antelope skin and
the inner lining is of coarse yellow silk
or plush. On each side is lapel APP
parently intended to meet below the
! chin and fasten there. The ornaments
upon this curious head-dress are of pure
soft gold, and they comprise representa-
| tons of human heads, jawboneS and
| lions, the whole being surmounted by
| two goats horns of gold. Much of the
! treasure consists of component parts of
| necklaces, Wristbands, etc, but Sir
Montagu called special attention to
what is presumed to be the badge of
Office of the public executioner with his
| drawn sword or execution knife in his
| hand. All these figures are OF gold, and
| the badge, which is Of hide, is provided
with strings by which it was fastened
| upon the breast. There is also an eX-
| ecution knife or sword, slightly curved,
with its cutting edge on the inside. The
weapon appears to have done much SER
vice. The handle, like those of mos:
of the swords and knives in the collec-
ton, is clothed with leopard skin and
terminates in huge golden ball. At
ter Inspection by Mr.. Chamberlain and
other privileged persons the valuables
were again locked up to await decision
| as TO their disposal.

COULDN'T STAND THE PRESSURE
Unfortunate individuals and Corporations
Who Make Assignments.

Easton, Pa, March 2S.-The Glendon
Iron company, whose plant near this
city is one of the oldest iron industries
Of the Leigh Valley and is valued at
over a million dollars, has made an as
signment for the benefit Of the creditors.
The works are in charge of the assign
ees and will be run for time in the
interest of the creditors.
The liabilities, according to Receiver
Let, are not very great and he believes
the creditors will make arrangements
with the company by which they will
receive dollar for dollar. The assign
ment was caused by the very great de-
preston in the iron trade, but the real
and personal estates of the officers OF
the company will more than cover the
claims.
Chicago, March 23.-Attorney Pat
rick Snowhook made an assignment to-
day; assets $3.50, 900; liabilities 100000.
