FORAKER TREACHEROUS.
At Least Mckinley Republicans in
Ohio Think So.

Chicago. April pa trio of Repub-
Hcan politicians who are greatly inter
ested in the presidential candidacy Of
William Mckinley held an important
conference in Chicago. The place Of
meeting was Kinsley's and the gen
tIemen present were Joseph p. Smith
late state librarian Of Ohio; eX-Audi-
tor c. w Pavey of Mount Vernon, H.
and General John AIcNulta of this city.
A prominent Republican politician
who sat near them at luncheon at
Kinsley's recognized them and could
not help hearing what was said Ac-
cOTding to his story, Mr. Smith told
McNulta and Pavey that the McKin-
ley managers had sent him to Illinois
to see what could be done to break
the force of the attack made against
the Ohio candidate by the mem bers Of
the American Protective association.
The Republicans of Ohio are salts
fed Mr. Smith said that Joe For
aker is responsible for the suddenly
aroused hostility of the a. p. A He
has been seeking for months for an Op-
pOrtunity to throw an obstacle in Nc
Kinley's way, and he thinks he has
found it at last He has managed to
worm himself into the confidence of
some of the A. p. A. leaders. and has
poisoned their minds against Mckln-
ley. We are informed that there viii
be about 400 A p A delegates in the
Illinois convention who have been in
structed to vote for our candidate. In
view of the manifesto issued by the
advisory board of the order, we desire
to know whether it is likely that any
of these delegates viii bolt their in
structiOns"
Mr. Pavey assured Mr. Smith that
Mckinley was all right in Illinois. and
that the A p. A. would stand by him,
no matter how many manifestos We're
issued by the advisory board. General
McNulta indOrsed everything Mr. Pa
vey said, and ex-Librarian Smith left
Chicago that night for his home be
lieving the A p A. attack on AcKin-
ley would do the Ohio man no harm in
Illinois.

Washington, April 28--The Republi-

ENDERSON KNOWN.
His Real Name is Kavanaugh and He
is a Chicago Thief

''EndersOn.'' the diamond thief who
is under arrest here charged with steal
ing Geo. Stansheld's diamond from his
shirt front. at the dog show some two
weeks ago, has been identified.
The police are thoroughly satisfied
that he is none other than the nOtori-
Gus Chicago diamond thief, Arthur
Kavanaugh, alias O'COnnor, alias VIII
son, alias Paddy Irish.
He is thought to be wanted in Chica-
go for several diamond rObberieS and
for what is known among officers as be
ing q perpetual thief" one who steals
for living and does it all the time.
Under the Illinois state law per
petuaI thief, may be imprisoned for
life
Ever since his imprisonment Chief
Gardiner has been working to find out
who Emerson really is. and last week
he received word from Chicago that
Enderson answered the description of
KaVanaugh. Photographs We're sent
on and the likeness proved correct.
1t seems almost certain that Kava-
naugh will be released of the charge Of
diamond stealing here.
The StansheId case against him is
weak. Nobody can swear he took the
diamond. and the circumstantial evil
dence is regarded as insufficient. The
diamond was not found on his person
1t is just possible that Lew Black
man will make q charge against him
last fan but it is so doubtful that the
case could be made to stick that it
viii probably not be done Blackman
is very sure one of the diamonds found
on Kavanaugh is his but would have
a hard time to prove he stole it.
There is of course not the slightest
doubt that Kavanaugh is a diamond
thief but it must take a specific case
to prove it,
The plan was to rearrest Kavanaugh
as soon as he was released of the other
charges and take him back to Chicago
but just now the chief is very much in
doubt about what to do.
The first kilograms he received said
that kavanaugh was wanted in Chi
cagO for rObberies and for jumping a
bond but a later telegram has been re-
ceived saying that the parties inter
ested would not put up a bond for the
expense Of bringing him back and that
the bond jumping charge has been re-
moved. The chief viii await further
instructions.
The Stansheld case against him was
called in Justice Furry's court late
this afternoon

CABINET STEPS OUT.
French Political Crisis Goes From Bad
to Worse.

Paris. April 23-The Bourgeois cab
met has resigned.
The resignation was announced by
the premier Immediately upon the re-
converting of the chamber OF deputies
today and at the conclusion of the an
nouncement. NJ. Bourgeois and his
colleagues withdrew. According to the
newspapers here, President Faure has
declined to cOuntersign the bill pro
Viding for the revision of the cOnsti-
tuition which the premier M BOur-
geOis, wished to submit to the chamber
Of deputies.
According to the generally expressed
opinion. new moderate ministry
would not ease the situation. The so
ciaHsts, it is said, are much excited
and intend to employ the most violent
language, and by every means of in
timidatiOn prevent the working Of the
present constitution, in order to de-
velop the agitation for revision Of the
constitution.
Any moderate premier, it is added,
would be driven to daily struggles
against the socialists.

New York stock Letter.

New Ork, April %.
The course Of prices today furnished
additional evidence of the existence of
a bull market 1T is probable that
large operators placed buying orders
on leading stocks at the opening in or
der to counteract the expected decline
in arbitrage stocks but found offerings
comparatively light and as soon as
these orders We're seen the effort of the
room to recover short stock established
a gain exceeding in most cases the
amount of decline. This encouraged
bulls to advance specialties and led to
the recovery of stocks by office traders
who had sold for a reaction. The fact
that leading bankers and capitalists
are expressing confidence in the situa-
ton is having a good effect throughout
the country.
