VIII Be Taken to Kentucky and
Lodged in COyinptOn JaiI

CINCINNATI. Feb. 1S.-Sheriff Plummer, of
Campbell county, KY, reached here tonight
with requisition approved by Gov. Bush
nell Tor the eXtradition of the accused pris-
oners Jackson and Waling. The proceedings
agreed upon are that the prisoners shall be
brought into the police court on Feb. ~.
where the requsition will be presented by
snerlH Archibald, of Hamilton county, who
VIII Jake the prisoners to a court of compe-
tent jurisdiction, either the common pleas
the circuit court the supreme court 1t
is most likely 1t will be brought to the cir
CUT court: After that there can be no delay
except by habeas corpus. 1t is not likely that
this will be resorted to in the present state
OF public feeling. Such proceeding would
make delay possible by means of appeals
an the way from the common pleas to the
supreme court. The prisoners will be taken
to the Covington jail, one of the strongest in
Kentucky.
Chief of Detectives Larry Hazen made a.
careful examination of the negro George H.
jackson. The questions and answers were
taken down by shorthand writer. The re-
markable thing about it is its perfect cor
respondence with the stories he has told
previously He has stood triumphantly every
test or cross examination. Nothing could be
more severe than his requirement made last
saturday night to take the detectives and Of
Meals over the route which he said he drove
the cab on the night of the murder, He was
not informed that he would be required to
do SO at that time until after he had re-
peated his story four times and had identi-
fled Walling in the Jail. Then, arriving on
the ground near the spot of the murder,
he told as nearly as possible the route of
the first part of his flight, taking the Of
said:
Il crossed foot bridge some distance be-
yond."
That was the first mention he made of a.
foot bridge. The detectives knew nothing
about 1t. short hunt brought them to a
foot bridge over small stream. The theory
is now that the girl knocked in the head.
killed, and that it was the intention to kill
the negro and leave him there with a pistol
In his hand. The fact that the carriage was
recognized going to the scene of the murder
over the Newport bridge and that it did not
return by that bridge, though return ticket
had been purchased, is taken as an indication
that the murderers thought the negro would
rush back and report the fact of the murder

sion or some other bridge.

DECIDED BY CARTER.
Mode of Selecting Delegates to the
.RepubIican Convention

WASHINGTON. Feb. 1s.-senator Carter.
of Montana, chairman of the Republican ma
tional committee, has rendered a decision that
will be Of interest in congressional districts.
in the selection of delegates to the st. Louis
convention. In the Tenth Ohio district a
faction Of the Republican party undertook to
elect the two delegates from the district at
a primary election. The opposing faction,
led by ex-Congressman Thompson. contended
that the delegates must be selected accord
ing to the practice of selecting congressional
candidates in the district, namely at con-
vention of delegates chosen by primaries. To
secure a decision upon the subject Judge
Thompson formally appeals to Chairman Car
ter and was sustained in the following letter.
Washington. D. c.. Feb. 49, '96.-Hon. A.
c. Thompson, Ironton, o.: Replying to the
question presented through Representative
Fenton you are informed that any departure
in selecting delegates to the national conven-
ton from the usual proceeding followed in
the district heretofore in nominating can
didate for congress would violate the rule
prescribed in the call for the st. Louis con-
vention. If the practice Of nominating candi-
dates for congress obtains in your district
convention any other methods of eecting del
egates to the st. Louis convention would be
entirely irregular.

houses in 1892. and the house Of commons by
Its vote in 1S93-therefore,
RESOLVED, That We earnestly desire such
action by our national Legislature and the ex-
ecutive as shall make permanent provision
1or some wise method OF arbitration between
the two countries, 1t being our hope that
sucn step will ultimately lead to interna-
tional arbitration throughout the civilized
world.
Resolved. Accordingly. That measures be
taken In the interest of such arbitration and
In concert with like committees from other
cities. for the converting in the city of Wash
ington, at the earliest practical date of
conference OF citizens representing every por-
ton OF the country, without distinction of
party creed.
Resolved That we gratefully recognize
lne actlon already taken in this direction by
representative citizens OF Chicago Philadel-
phia and other cities. and that we rely on
their vigorous cooperation in promoting the
success of the proposed national conference"
After reading the resolutions, Mr..
Depew went on to say that the ques-
ton of arbitration between Great Brit
ain and the United States was not
new one. He referred to the Jay
treaty of over a hundred years ago,
which provided that disputes should be
settled by arbitration, and although
that treaty was not lived up to, as
there was a war in 1872, there have
been many settlements by arbitration
since that time. He spoke of the ben
efts of the Geneva treaty under the
late President Grant
International arbitration, embracing
all the nations of Europe, was impos-
sible at the present time, said Mr. De-
pew, but he claimed that between
Great Britain and the United States 1t
was not so. At a meeting Of the State
Bar association, in Albany, some time
ago, he said he suggested O. plan Of
this kind, which met with the approba-
ton of the $50 well-known lawyers
who were present. The question was
being carefully considered by both re-
| ligious and commercial BODIES in Great
Britain, and 1t was very probable that
the Liberal party would embody it In
plank in their political platform.
In conclusion. Mr. Depew said: 'In
our own country 1 think as this move
ment progresses, it will develop that
perfect unanimity exists on this sub
ject and before long the universal
peace, which the church has been
praying for for 1000 years, will be re-
aliZed.''
The resolutions were adopted unani-
mously.
On motion Of Gen. Bristow. Bishop
Potter, Hon. Chauncey M. Depew, J.
c. Cadwalader, Henry E. Rowland and
William E. Dodge were appointed as
delegates to a meeting in favor of arbi-
tration, to take place in Independence
hall, Philadelphia, on Washington's
birthday, with power to add to the
number.

0RINOCO COMPANY.
Its Inactivity Is Causing Some Com

ment.
NEW YORK Feb 1S-It seems that there
Is considerable dissatisfaction with the mac
tlVity of the Orinoco company successor to
tne Manoa company in Venezuela 1t will
be remembered that several Minnesota men
are interested in it. The company is incor-
porated under the laws of Wisconsin and IFS
capital stock is $25,0OO.OOO The New York
Post says
"A former Mauoa share owner who holds a.
very large amount of Orinoco stock regularly
issued to him on his demand, says that the
Orinoco company, at the outset, agreed to
hnance the treasury with $780, 900 cash, which
was to be increased to 81 600, 0O0 and with this
money to begin without delay the work of
improvements, ETC., on the grant as required
by the government. He declares that although
ne has made it his special business to keep
posted about the Ornoco company and its
doings, he never has been able to get any sat-
isfactory information. 1t is his understand
ing that the company has done little in the
way of complying with the six months time
a Few employees stationed on the island Of
Pedernales. Yet the Orinoco company hopes
to have the federal councils order of June IS
last confirmed by the Venezuelan congress-
which is to assemble on the Goth of this
month. The writer is informed that the COM
pany has representatives in Caracas who are
expected to take good care of its interests
when congress convenes. and that a strong
argument they propose using to counteract
possible dissatisfaction with the concerns
almost complete inactivity is that it would be
very ungracious, in view of President Cleve-
lands attitude on the boundary question for
Venezuela now to take away the concession
from this American corporation. Yet they
are likely to encounter some difficulty in
making that plea efficacious; for it may be
said on excellent authority that within a few
weeks Secretary Olney has written note to
our minister in Caracas instructing him to
intimate to the Venezuelan government that
the circumstance of private American inter-
ests in concessions .can have no legitimate
connection with the international controversy
The Olney communication alluded to was oc-
casioned by some newspaper interviews with
John A. Bowman, the old Manoa president,
and stakeholder in the Orinoco company
in which Mr.. Bowman declared that one of
contention is the obligation of the United
States government to afford protection to its
citizens who have vested rights in the dis
puted territory

MEETING OF PROMINENT NEW
WORKERS TO FURTHER INTER-
NATIONAL ARBITRATION.
MOVEMENT NOW UNIVERSAL
AND LEADERS EXPRESS CONFI.
DENCE THAT THEY WILL BE
SUCCESSFUL.
NATIONAL CONFERENCE ASKED
To Meet at Washington, to Which
All Cities in the Country VIII
BE Invited.

NEW YORK, Feb. ia meeting of
prominent citizens Of this city and
Brooklyn was held tonight at the resi-
dence Of William E. Dodge. The meet
ing was called by Mayor Strong, Gen.
Bristow, Bishop Potter, ex-Chief JUS
tice DAILY. Hon. Seth Low and Mr..
Dodge for the purpose Of forming a
committee Of representative citizens of
New York and Brooklyn, to cooperate
with similar committees which have
already established in Philadelphia,
Chicago, Washington and other prom
inent cities in the United States, whose
object is the calling of national con-
ference in the interest of international
arbitration between Great Britain and
the United States. Ex-Mayor Hewitt,
at the request of Mr.. Dodge, presided,
and Rev. Josiah Strong acted as secre-
tary.
The chairman, in opening the meet
ing, said that as he had been appointed
chairman by the chamber of commerce
OF committee appointed for similar
purpose and had in that capacity read
communica tons from several other
committees in the country, he was glad
to inform the gentlemen present that
the feeling in favor of international ar
bitration seemed to be universal, and
he was confident that the movement
about to be inaugurated would be sue
cessful.
William E. Dodge said that during
the last four or five weeks there had
been strong sentiment throughout
the country favoring some wise method
of arbitration between Great Britain
and the United States. He said Chi
cago had already been working, and
Philadelphia and other cities were not
behind hand, and that 1t was necessary
that the New Workers should wake up
and put the sentiment into definite,
working shape in this city. For this
purpose 1t was deemed wise to call a
few gentlemen from Brooklyn and New
York, who would form committee to
cooperate with those appointed in
other cities, and make the movement q
national one. Mr.. Dodge then read let
tiers sympathizing with the movement
for the establishment Of court Of ar
bitration and regretting the inability
Of the writer's to attend, including the
following gentlemen: Bishop Potter
Bishop Andrews, Cornelius Vanderbilt,
Mayor Wurster of Brooklyn, and
Mayor Strong, of this city. Ex-Gov.
Russell, Of Massachusetts, and Presi-
dent Angel, of Ann Arbor, Mich, also
sent letters, which were not read, but
Mr. Dodge said these letters were in
perfect sympathy with the proposed
movement.

JUNIORS HAVE GINGER.
Amateur Ball Players Meet With
Mercury at Zero.

Prospects are for a lively season Of the
Twin City Juniors base ball league, judging
from the enthusiasm which prevailed at the
meeting held at the o g editorial rooms
last night in spite of the zero weather with
out Four strong st. Paul clubs were repre-
sented the Elks, Baldwins, Acmes and This
ties. An effort will be made to enlist the
support of some local mercantile establish
ments, bicycle houses preferred, in order
that all the clubs may be provided with uni
forms, etc. The Minneapolis quartette of
clubs are backed by bicycle houses and for
that reason it is considered that st. Paul
bicycle houses might prefer to be thus rep
resented although there is no limitation A
canvass will be made during the coming
week to enlist the support of the houses, and
another meeting of the managers of clubs
will be held at the G ODE editorial rooms
Tuesday evening next at $780, In Minneapo-
lis there are the Thistle, Syracuse Stearns
and Montecarlo teams, each being backed
by wel-known bicycle agency, and some
similar deal will probably be effected here
AS soon as the list Of clubs is perfected, a
meeting will be held to appoint a schedule
committee and arrange other details for the
season.

SIOUX FALLS, s. D., Feb. 1s.-The county
commissioners are happy over the outcome of
the seed grain law. Under it they loaned to
the farmers last spring $4,000. All of this
more than offset by the interest. But a
greater gain is found in the fact that the grain
raised from this seed sold for $20S, 996. This
amount of money by which the county is
richer than it would have been but for this
public loan.
