AN AMERICAN ON TRIAL.

New York. March PA dispatch to-
the World from Paris says:
The case of Mr.. Wing of Springfield,
ILL.,, came up yesterday before the Ninth
tribunal and Comte de Ia Rochfaud tes-
tilted to his good character.
Wing arrived in Paris early in 1895.
hoping to raise money on bonds of the
Rock Island, Peoria and st. Louis rail-
way. In New York, Wing made the ac-
quaintance of a French lady with Mile.
'Croissant, who took $4,000 worth of
the bonds and the money was deposited
in the Central Trust company. She adj,
vised Wing to place the remainder of the
bonds in France, and introduced him to
her brother-in-law, Pickard, who took the
other. bonds. Wing says he intended to
use the money raised by the sale of bonds
for the construction of the final sections
of the road, but he was authorized to
draw on the cash deposited with
the Central Trust Company for
the expenses of his European
trip, After his arrival in Paris two
checks drawn on this deposit were duly
honored. the third, however, was by mis-
take returned unpaid and Wing was inn
mediateiy arrested on the charge of fraud.
Amitre Allen, the Franco Americans
barrister, obtained Wings release on bail,
rectified the error about the unpaid
check and settled Wings debts, but
Wing was again arrested on a second
charge of fraud. Inquiry made by the
French authorities into Wings affairs on
the occasion of his first arrest revealed
that the final section of the railway was
still unbuilt. The authorities therefore
imagined that Wing was attempting to
obtain money on nOn-existing securities.
Wing was kept in prison awaiting trial.
Yesterdays proceedings established
Wings good faith. The case was con-
tinued to Friday.

CONFEREES ON CJTRA

Washington, March 24.-The conferees
of the two houses on the Cuban resolu-
tons held a session today, but without
reaching a conclusion adjourned until
tomorrow. The entire time was spent
in canvassing the situation and in trying
to arrive at common ground upon which
the two houses can stand. The senate
conferees explained fully the difficulties
they have encountered in the senate and
made it clear to the house members of
the conference that it would be necessary
for the house to yield something to pre-
vent leaving the question in all. between
the two houses. The house conferees ac-
cepted this explanation and expressed
their willingness to make concessions,
agreeing, as they said, fully with the
senators that it would place both houses
IN ridiculous attitude to have the mat
ter fail in conference after both houses,
by such extensive majorities, had agreed,
each in its own way, upon an expression
friendly to Cuba.
Two alternatives were presented,
which were those of the house accept
ing the senate resolutions without change
or the modifying of the house resolutions
by leaving out the third of the series,
providing for Intervention. When the
conference adjourned no decision had
been reached as to which course should
be pursued or whether some other course
might not be taken. If the senate reso-
lutions are accepted by the house it will
not be necessary to bring the question
into the senate again, and some of the
senators think the conference will result
in this.

AN ARKANSAS FEI1n

Little Rock, March 24.-The Bankston-

A shooting took place and Bankston fled.
A family feud has existed since, both
sides going heavily armed. Saturday

the convention adjourned until 1870 to

Before adJourning, the following reso-
buttons were adopted by a rising vote:
Resolved, That pronounced prefer
ence of the Republicans of Minnesota
for presidential standard bearer in 1896
is VIM. Mckinley. The convention ex-
poets the delegates and alternates at
large today to be elected by it to do all
in their power honorably from now until
that object is accomplished to bring
about promptly the nomination of Me-
kinley.. for president of the United
States"
The following is the financial plank
adopted by the conventions:
Resolved, That we favor the use of
both gold and silver to the extent to
which they can be maintained in circu-
lation at q parity in purchasing and debt
paying power; that we are earnestly op-
posed under the present conditions to
the free and unlimited coinage of sill
yer, for the manifest reason that il
would destroy such parity, enormously
contract the volume of our currency by
forcing gold out of circulation and i'm
mediateiy place us on silver basis. Be
lieving also that it is self evident fact
that the effect of the international de-
monetization can be overcome only by
international reconciliation of that
metal, the Republican party of Mime
sofa most heartily favor an International
conference for that purpose"
