Gruffydd alb Conan was a distin-
guished patron of the Welsh bards, be-
ing of the stock of the five royal tribes
and king of North Wales from 1915 till
1877. He was born In Ireland. of which
country his mother was native, and
where his father had been obliged to
take refuge from the commOtions
which ragged In his native country.
Gruffydd during his reign had several
conflicts with his enemies, the Eng
lish, but in 1896 made peace with them.
Gruffydd found great irregularities and
abuses among the Welsh bards. and it
is recorded that he invited to Wales
some of the best musicians of Ireland,
and called together several congresses,
where laws were established for the
better regulation of music and poetry.

it could never be at issue between

BINKLEY FOUND GUILTY.
The Prescott Dynamiter Will Be Sen
 fenced Wednesday,.

PRESCOTT, Ariz., Nov. 14-William Binkley, who attempted to blow up the Cabinet saloon here last July, was found guilty today and will be sen fenced next Wednesday. The extreme penalty for the crime is fifteen years in the penitentiary.
 Binkley's fiendish act, it will be re- called, was prompted by spirit of insane jealousy. He had been es tranged from his wife, whom he had short time previously married at Flagstaff, and who was then leading a careless life Binkley knew that she had accompanied male admirer to a wine room attached to the saloon and, having already planned the diabolical deed, he placed the dynamite under the building and set it off. The interior walls were shattered and the inmates of the saloon thrown into consterna- tion, but by providential interposition no one was seriously injured, though the place was crowded at the time.

TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. 14.-Sensation- al developments have followed the statement of Charles S. Gleed, director of the new Santa Fe Railway company. that the appointment of receiver for that line by Judge Myers was simply a conspiracy to burgle the stock market. General Solicitor Kenna and the other attorneys of the company have dis covered enough evidence bearing on this phase of the case to warrant the announcement that it was all put up job to influence the stocks of the Santa Fe company.
 The story goes tlat the scheme has been matching for several months and that the parties interested are some Santa Fe ex-oficials, some Chicago and New York brokers and a few men lo- cated in Kansas City, Oskaloosa and Topeka. The sole object was to make i a barrel of money on the decline of stocks. In a general siZe-up of all things connected with the case, it seems that the railroad officials have no doubt struck the right track. It 1 is known that one of the attorneys who filed the suit was so anxious to have the news get into eastern papers that he was making inquiry for an Asso- ciated Press reporter three days before the case was filed and told him he would have some "hot stuff"
 The alleged conspirators fell down on their scheme. Instead of making a barrel of money they lost quite heav- i fly, so it is charged. They failed to influence the market, and it came about this way: The Associated Press han died the story and the financial news bureau in the business centers got hold of the report several hours before the market opened.
 Messages were at once sent to MT c. s. Gleed, one of the directors of the company, asking him his opinion of the matter. He immediately replied that the case could have no standing in court and that it was a plot to burgle the stock market. This telegram from MT. Gleed, who is here on the ground, was received by the bureau an hour before the markets opened and word was passed down the line This, in connection with the result of the cleo tion, caused the stocks to advance in stead of decline, and those who started
 out to line their pockets were left holding the bag.
 It is claimed the Santa Fe officials ], have the complete list of names of
 those who were in the scheme, and
 that in due time they will be taught lesson they will remember.

Work on Coast Defenses Has No Par

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-President Cleveland during private conversa- tion, said:
 Every precaution has been taken that if the occasion should rise in Cuba, the United States could assert itself with force."
 In answer to inquiries as to the foun- dation of certain sensational stories in circulation recently as to trouble with Spain, growing out of the Cuban situa- tion, Secretary Lamont said today:
 'The stories about the movement of troops in the south are untrue, and the assumption that work on the coast de- lenses has any significance or is being expedited in any particular or for any unusual purpose, has no foundation. This work has made most excellent progress during the past year, and I am making an effort to show some return in completed defenses for the large amount of money appropriated for this object

Great BrtaIn'S Political Leaders Have Been Talking Some During the Week-VenezueIa the Chief Topic ot Discussion,

LONDON, Nov. 14.-The past week has been brimful of political interest. In addition to the Guild Hall orations. MT. John Morley, Sir John Gorst, MT. Henry Asquith, MT. Joseph Chamber lain, the Marquis of Lansdowne and Sir Michael Hicks N. Beach delivered speeches of considerable interest.
 Venezuela, naturally, has been the chief topic of discussion and the news papers have daily printed comments upon the development of the question.
 The St. James Gazette, incidentally, published letter suggesting that the boundary dispute between Honduras and Mexico be treated on the same lines as the Venezuela difficulty. The secretary of state for the colonies, MT. Joseph Chamberlain, addressing the Birmingham chamber of commerce last evening, described thex scare in Eng land and German commercial competi- tion as being absurd, and defended the acquisitions of recent years, upon the part of Great Britain of enormous ter ritories as being necessary in order to forestall her rivals, who would close them to English commerce.
 The remarks of the secretary ot state, the Marquis of Lansdowne, be- fore meeting of conservatives al Bristol, have also attracted attention He dilated upon the necessity of in creasing the expenditures for the army which he asserted must be put upon the same level of efficiency as the navy

FIXED FOR TIE COUNTING.
Hobo Thieves Who Had Preference
 For Store Shoes.

Yesterday evening about 6:30 o'clock Harry Diehl of the Diehl shoe store, undertook to capture burglar and it was not his fault that he didn't quite succeed.
 He was going towards the rear of the store when he observed man sinking near the back door with a pair of rubber boots under his arm. Diehl gave chase and succeeded in get ting tail hold on the thief's coat, but the fellow was evidently an old bird in crime, for he slipped through his coat without any trouble, leaving the garment in Diehl's possession, as well as the stolen property
 Later in the evening Officer Webster. who was standing on Center street, saw a man walking rapidly up the al ley in the rear of Diehl's store with something on his shoulders wrapped up in coat. He followed the man and met Officer Wolf1ey on First street. The officers quickly overhauled the fugitive. In the coat they found seven pairs of shoes. The man declined to say where he got the shoes and he was taken to the city jail.
 The sequel to the double theft is thus explained: After the first man sue ceeded in escaping from Mr. Diehl he did not fancy being without coat on cold night, so he sent his confederate back to the shoe store to try to steal the garment. The accomplice went to the store and finding the rear of the building vacant, not only stole the coat, but several pairs of shoes as well. The captured thief is member of the hobo element. He gave his name as Peter Foley and was booked on a charge of burglary.
