FAMOUS LA ABRA CASE.
Court of Claims Renders q
Decision Barring All I
Claims.

Washington, D. c., June
24.-The United States court
of claims today rendered a de
cision in the famous La Abra
case, holding in effect that the
awards rendered against Mex
leo by Sir Edward Thornton,
who acted as umpire under the
treaty of 1868 with Mexico,
was obtained by testimony OF
a corrupt character. ~
The court of claims derived
jurisdiction from a special act
of congress passed for the pur-
pose of determining the charge
of fraud brought by Mexico
and made the base of an ap-
plication by that government
to the United States to return
so much of the money award
ed as remains undistributed in
the latter's hands.
The following is the copy OF
the decree entered in the case
today;
The court finding from the
evidence that the award made
by the United States and
Mexican mixed commission in
respect to the. claim of said
company was obtained as to
the whole sum included there
| in by fraud effected by means
of false swearing and other
false and fraudulent practices
On the part of said company
and its agents, it is thereby or
dered, adjudged and decreed
that all claims in law and eqli-
ty on the part of said compa-
ny, its. legal representatives
and assignees be forever bar
red and forever closed to all
Eelaim that the motion received
from the republic of Mexico
for or in account OF such
award"

Washington, June 24.-The
officials of the French embas-
sy here refLse TO impart in
formation concerning any con-
nection that the anarchists may
have had with the holocaust in
the early part of May. Mr..
lie Fevre, the first secretary of
the embassy, said tonight that
there had been no communi-
cation from his government
looking to the apprehension OF
the alleged leaders of the out
rage, who, it is said, have fled
20 America. This, he thinks,
would have been the case had
it been been believed such per
sons were engaged in the af
fair and had fled to this coun-
try.

THE WORK OF
ANARCHISTS.
Now Alleged they Caused the
Holocaust at Paris IN May.

Chicago, June 24.-The
Post says today; According to
a story which has reached Chi
eago from Paris near Wash
ington the terrible holocaust
which wiped out over a hun
dred lives at the French CAPT
cal May 4 was the work OF
anarchists thirsting for revenge
upon the upper classes OF
France.
It's claimed that while the
official inquiry into the circum-
stances surrounding the catas-
frophe threw little light on the
cause of the fire, the secret
service department is working
on a clew that. points to an
anarchistic conspiracy Of stu
pedous magnitude. It is said
the Paris detectives have not
only satisfied themselves that
anarchists were at the bottom
of the awful crime, but that the
leaders who planned it fled to
America as soon as they had
been executed.
A member OF the French le-
cation at Washington is said

THE Governor on Friday last
finished the work on the legislation
left in his hands. In the general
appropriation bill quite a number Of
items were disapproved, but the $685..
900 for fixing up Grace church was
not one Of them. AS to the question
of the amount of praise or ceDsure
the Executive should be entitled to
for his approvals or disapprovals de.
pends somewhat on how much one
knows of the merits or dement's of
these several items. Perhaps the
greatest merit in his vetoes of expense
accounts lies in the fact that they will
have tendency to discourage useless
investigating committees, but when
legislative or any other representa-.
tive body once appoints committee
tor special purpose it has 20 moral
| right to refuse the members of that
committee a reasonable sum for their
necessary and legitimate expenses,
aud they ought not to be expected to
patroDize soup houses or stop at third
rate taverns either. To cut them off
entirely is not fair.
The Governors veto Of the scan.
dalous electric light snake was to be
expected as a matter Of course, with.
out q moments hesitation But his
veto of the mercantile license tax
bill is a surprise to those who know
the measure to have had the sanction
of the administration, members of
which very materially assisting in
aud urging its passage through both
branches of the legislature, The bill
was fair in its provisions aud simply
required the great mercantile kings
in Philadelphia and Pittsburg
to pay their just proportion
of taxation. But that i;
where the shoe pinched. The legis
lature can rest its case before the
country people Oh that bill so far a
providing revenue for the State il
, concerned. 1t is estimated the bill
would have put million and a hal
] Of dollars into the State Treasury ev

Do YOU remember that, 10 the

And that in 1892 they declared none

the fact that last year the American
tin plate mills produced 307 100000

will make all the tin plate we car
