SITUATION GRAVE AT PORT All PRINCE.
Cruiser to Be Hurried to the Scene, But Only
to Protect American Interests.

the Herald from Washington says: The
Haytian government has asked the
United States to use its good offices
for the settlement of it's controversy
with Germany. Ambassador White is
feeling the pulse of the German au-
thorities on this phase of the subject
and if it can be ascertained beforehand
that Germany Will not reject the good
offices of the United States. they will
be rendered. While believing that Ger
many has taken an unnecessarily
harsh course, there is no disposition on
the part of the administration to inter-
fere by protest or otherwise as long
as Germany, in pressing her claims
against Hayti, keeps within the bounds
of sound practice in international law.
The administration is reluctant to
believe that it will be called upon to
make any assertion about the placing
of the so-called Monroe doctrine to the
present controversy, but state depart
meut officials do not deny that this
government will take a very firm stand
should Germany make any movement
in the direction of permanent occu-
pancy of Haytian territory.
Germany has practically rendered an
uitimatum. She has demanded the i'm
mediate payment Of an indemnity and
an apology. According to the Haytian
minister even after German guns were
turned upon the city. should this hap
pen, the Haytian government will not
yield to the demands of Germany. ut
is a matter of principle with u.s." he
said. Our honor is involved"

LAST FOR TEN DAYS.
Close of the Testimony Until After
the Recess.

Close of the Testimony Until After
the Recess.
The commission began in the morn
ing with the examination of an eX-
guard, a welcome relief from the mass
of eX-convict testimony with which it
had been deluged.
Patrick Flannery, of Hastings, tes-
titled that that had been his home for
twenty-eight or thirty years. He was
guard at the prison, except for a
short interval, from the fall of 1883 to
April, 1898. He served in the shops, in
the solitary and various places around
the prison. When engaged in the soli-
taTy he said, his duties were to hang
up the prisoners on the door, to make
himself generally useful, do as the
deputy warden directed him, take pris-
oners back to their work when they
were let out of the solitary, and take
care Of the quarters where the solitary
cells were.
Did you ever know of any violence
there?" asked Mr.. Penney.
THE deputy had his office in the
same building there, and when he
brought prisoners there, he would gen.
orally take them into his office. Some
times he would shut the door and some
times he would leave it ajar-open three
or four inches. Several times I have
seen him and Assistant Deputy Warden
Glennon hit prisoners with their fists"
did you ever see him strike O prisoner
when chained up in the solitary?' "Not
while he was chained up. I was going through
prisoners pockets before claiming him up
to see if he had knife or anything, and
while l was doing this the deputy tried to
hit him with his cane, but did not reach
him."
How long do they have prisoners hung
up there?"
Three, four. FIVE or six days perhaps
longer"
Chained up, I mean?"
six hours; just the working hours"
How long are they left in the solitary?"
Till they ask to get out"
DO they always get out them"
one man was left in two days after he
had asked to see the deputy warden"
DO you know Of prisoners there asking
to see the warden?"
Eyes. One man told me he wanted to see
the warden. told the deputy, and he said
I'm running this department myself; the
to him..
did the warden see him?'
mot to my knowledge 1 saw him very
seldom in that part of the prison.
Ever see any other undue vioence?''
~ have seen prisoners jabbed with cane
when they were slow in the ranks
Was there ever anything said to you by
any officer of the prison about too many
convicts getting into the first grader"
lone night after we had locked up the
deputy called us up and said: You fellows
will have to tend to business, or you'll have
all these men in the first grade The next
day there were an unusually large number
reported
did you know convict named Lawton?"
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-12-01


What was his treatment there?"
HE was reported pretty often, and 1t used
to worry him good deal. He told me -
RULED OUT LAWToN's STORY.
But here Judge Nethaway, who had been
cautiously interrupting with objections that
were overruled all the morning, secured the
ruling out of what the dead man had said
Ibid you know Nels Heen?" resumed Mr.
Penney.
Yes sir
Did you see him while he was in the
'Yes. He was lying on the floor in one
of the cells wrapped up in his blanket"
"How long was it after he was taken to
the hospital?'
II couldn't tell exactly"
''The record shows it was six days" in
terposed Judge Nethaway,
''Do you know what was the report of the
mans death?" continued Mr.. Penney
Yes That he struck by a cane In
the hands of Deputy Warden Lemon
''Where was that report made?"
"The guards talked about 1t.
"The official report, l mean"
az do not know what that was.
"Was 1t on the bulletin?"
''Not that I know Of
'"What was Deputy Warden Lemons treat
ment OF prisoners generality"

though carefully weighing mis- words, Il am

Mr. Lemon fit man to be in such posi-
ton, because he had such q violent temper

did you resign or were you discharged?'

under John Bonfieid in the secret service of
the worlds fair.
Did you ever get any instructions from
any officer of the prison, Ii. regard to keeping
quiet about what transpirt1 in the prison?"
''Yes. One night the d5puty lined US up
and told us the warden w nted to see US in
his Office We all went in, or at least 1
did, and I guess they all did. The warden
told us he had heard there was some talk
from guards around the town about things
that happened in the prison. He said we
must leave everything that happened during
the day and not talk about it down town"
On cross-examination Mr.. Flannery could
not definitely fix the time he was in the
solitary, but thought it was about January.
1898. The time he saw Heen in the hospital
the solitary, but when he had gone up there
to get some medicine from DR.. Hall. The
incident of the witness being shut out of the
prison was gone into and witness was asked
il he had ever written any letters about the
management of the prison. He said he had
and they were printed in the Free Press.
Have you talked with Forester about
this?'' asked Judge Nethaway.

prison"
written to him?"

CHARGE OF CONSPIRACY
Brought Against the President OF
Chicago Bank.

CHICAGO, Nov. 3O.-On a bill filed
in the federal court this afternoon,
Judge Grosscup issued a temporary
restraining order enjoining the Amer
lean Exchange National bank, Robert
Stuart, Edward Mas and Walter
George and William Doublas from
disposing Of 1000 shares Of stock val
ued at 100000 in the American Cereal
company. The order holds until to-
morrow morning, when Judge Gross
cup Will take up the hearing of the
prayer of the bill for a permanent in
junction.
The charges made in the court are
of a sensational nature. The COM
plainants, Hugo Schumacher and
Johnson A. Arbogast, Of Akron, o..
as assignees and trustees Of the es-
tate of Ferdinand Schumacher, charge
a conspiracy on the part of the Amer
lean Exchange National bank, its
president, Robert Stuart. and its sec
ond assistant cashier, ]. f. Edward
Mas, to wreck the American Cereal
company or to greatly depreciate its
stock so as to secure for themselves
the management of the American Ce-
real company. On the other hand,
President Stuart, of the bank, and
William H. Swift, It's attorney, brand
the charges as false and ridiculous.

VEJASHINGTON. Nov. go.
VIZ = Mr.. Hepburn, of
HH Iowa, is one of the
Republican members of the
house who is CT the opin-
ion that it would be wis
dom not to attempt any
financial legislation. The
futility of sending a meas
ure to the senate makes it
inexpedient for the house to
attempt to put through a
measure and, besides, he
doubts the propriety of the
Republicans of the house at
tempting to make Republi-
can policy on a subject upon
which the Republican plat
form does not speak to the
point. He says if the presi-
lent should. as reported,
recommend any scheme for
the retirement of the green
backs, it would be beyond
the Republican platform and
every Republican would be
free to support or oppose it
as his judgment indicated.
There is some talk of a Re-
publican caucus on this
question, many of the mem
bers believing concerted ac-
ton could thus be secured"
Mr.. Hepburn, who is
chairman of the committee
on interstate and foreign
commerce, says he has re-
ceived many letters during
the recess, urging action on
anti-scalping and pooling
bills, and he expects both
these questions to receive
early attention.

was today convicted Of murder in the
first degree for the killing of William
Guldensuppe, his predecessor in the af-
fections Of Mrs. Augusta Mack, at
Woodside, L. l., on June %. At the
request of Thorn's counsel the passage
of the death sentence was deferred un-
til next Friday morning. Thorn heard
the jurymen polled on their verdict,
but his face never changed color dur
ing the trying ordeal. With lips firm
ly compressed and jaws hard set, he
faced the Judge. jury and court room
full of spectators with well-feigned sto-
icism.
About three weeks ago Thorn's first
trial on the charge Of murder was be-
gun. but owing to the illness Of a juror
it had to be abandoned after three
days. A second trial opened a week ago
last Monday, and, counting out three
days on which the court did not sit,
the trial consumed only six days. Mrs.
Nack's testimony during the mistrial
made it compulsory for Thorn's law
yers to change their line of defense in
the second trial. and they made a direct
charge against Mrs. Mack and insisted
that her alleged confession was a lie
and she herself was the instigator and
perpetrator Of the murder Thorn being
ignorant Of the killing until after Gull
densuppe had been shot by Mrs. Mack.
The woman was not produced during
the second trial. but Thorn went on
the stand and substaatiated all the as
sertions made by his lawyers as TO this
midwife's guilt His story, as the yer.
dict shows, did not have the desired
effect upon the jury.
When court opened this morning
Lawyer Howe began summing up in
behalf Of Thorn. He was followed by
the states attorney. Judge Maddox's
charge was carefully prepared and well
delivered. 1t was acknowledged by the
lawyers for the prisoner to be extreme
Iy lucid. fair and impartial. The jury
remained in deliberation just three
hours, when they sent word 90 the
Judge that they were ready 10 render
a verdict. The fact Of their remaining
out so long gave hope TO the defense,
but as each one of them took his seat
in the jury box his facial expression
told very distinctly the result Of the
three hours conference. Guilty of the
charge preferred" were the ominous
words which fell from the lips OF the
foreman OF the jury. Thorn's lawyers
moved for a new trial on the ground
that the verdict was not In accordance
with the weight OF evidence. blt the
motion was overruled.
