BIMETALLISM COMMISSION.
w. j. Bryan Thinks Well of the
Presidents Appointees.

WASHINGTON, April 14.-Speaking
of the Presidents appointment of com
missioners to visit foreign countries in
the interest of international monetary
conference, William ]. Bryan said to-
day he thought the personnel of the
commission was excellent SO far as Mr..
Stevenson and Mr.. Walcott was con-
cerned. Mr.. Payne he did not know.
Mr. Wolcott's visit abroad last au
tumn,'' said he, especially fits him for
service as one of the commissioners,
and Mr.. Stevenson's conspicuous posi-
ton in the Democratic party and the
nation makes his appointment entirely
Appropriate The fact that he is a BIZ
metallist and actively supported the
Democratic party in the demand for in
dependent action by the United States,
instead of being an argument against
him, will lend weight and influence as
one Of the commissioners. All indepen
dent bimetallists favor international BIZ
metallism, if that is possible, but do
not believe in waiting for other nations
to act. The six and a half millions who
supported the demand for Independent
bimetalliSm will heartily rejoice if the
commission is able to bring about a
restoration of international bimetallsm.
But large majority of not all indepen-
dent bimetallists regard international
bimetalliSm as very remote poSsibil-
ity. If the commissioners fail to secure
an international conference, or if sue
cessful and an international conference
does not secure foreign cooperation for
the restoration of bimetallism, the
cause of free silver will be stronger in
1900 than in 1896, because many who
have been inclined to rely on foreign
aid will see the necessity of self-re-
lance on the part of the United States.

CHARLES ]. Won ARNOLD.
NOT LIKELY TO BE BROUGHT
BACK TO CALIFORNIA.
The Attorney and Detective Who
Swore to the Complaint Talk of
Dropping the Case.

OAKLAND, April 14-At noon to-day
no word had reached the Chief of Po-
lice regarding the capture of the bogus
Baron, Won Arnold, alias Won Turk
helm, who is speeding across the con-
tinent to escape the penalty of a biga-
my charge committed when he married
the nemesis of Attorney Delmas in this
city.
At , O'Clock this afternoon Attorney
Hutton and Detective Lucas of San
Francisco, who swore to the complaint
charging bigamy, reached Oakland.
They were greatly incensed when in
formed at police headquarters that no
steps had been taken to head off the
fugitive at Omaha and talked strongly
OF dropping the case.
There is one thing I cannot under
stand in connection with this case. -
said Detective Lucas this afternoon,
and that is what prevented the cap
ture of Won Arnold in Omaha last
night. OF course the parties interested
in keeping this woman out of the way
have a wide influence. but re lid not
imagine that it would reach clear
across the continent"
There is an air o. mystery sbout
this entire NATTER said Attorney Hut
ton. Il have done all ] could to bring
this man back, but the police seem to
take no interest in the affair. which is,
of course. a great handicap. We have
secured copies Of the complaint and
warrant and will take them over and
submit them to Chief Lees This done,
/ am inclined TO wash my hands of the
entire matter
Detective Lucas said just before his
departure for San Francisco that in his
opinion Won Arnold would never be
brought back. There is an influence at
work stronger than the law he added.
lin this criminals behalf and coin is
far reaching. 1t is possible that Won
Arnold will be taken into custody when
he reaches Chicago, if he ever gets that
far. but if he is ever brought back to
Oakland for trial it will be surprise
to many people"

SPANISH RULE In CUBA
DISCUSSED IN JPLOMATIC CIP
Giles AT MADRID.
Spain Will Not Entertain ANY Sug-
geStiOn of American Medi-
alton.

NEW YORK, April 14.-A special to
the World from Madrid saws: Polit
ical and diplomatic circles in Madrid
are animatedly discussing the improve
ment of the prospects of Spanish rule
in Cuba in consequence, it is said, of an
active exchange of confidential and un-
official communications between the
United States and the Spanish Govern
ments since Mckinley and Sherman
took office.
1t seems that Spanish diplomacy has
intimated at Washington that Spain
cannot entertain any suggestion of
American mediation to obtain the sub
mission of the Cuban insurgents and
that Spain asks only that the American
Executive continue to check and pun
ish filibustering expeditions and separ-
atist juntas and propaganda whenever
the Spanish Legation and Consuls pro-
duce sufficient evidence of their exist
ence, as was done recently in the case
of the New York separatist junta's
correspondence with instructions to
Cuban insurgents.
Spanish diplomacy was authorized to
give unofficial confidential verbal as
surances that If the Government did
that much Spain considered herself
quite equal to the task of shortly re-
ducing the rebellion to such pass that
the Madrid Government would be jus-
titled in the eyes of public opinion in
Spain and the colonies to carry out
West Indian home rule in a very liberal
spirit, and in its wake extensive tariff
reforms that would make very easy af-
terward treaty of commerce between
the United States and Cuba and Porto
Rico.
In the same way the American State
Department was given to understand
that Spain will in the future deal more
leniently with the separatists and that
when home rule is put in force a gem
eral amnesty will be granted to include
all rebels submitting within a certain
period and all political convicts, pris-
oners and suspects exiled or transport
ed to Spanish fortresses and penal set
Elements without trial.

CHICAGO, April 14.-Policeman

night while cleaning a revolver. The
bullet entered Miss Jacobs left arm
near the elbow, followed the bone up
wards and pierced the heart.
The woman fell to the floor dead and
Krafts. not waiting to learn the ex-
tent of her injuries, rushed from the
house in search of a physician. In the
meantime the police had been notified
and when Krafts returned he was con-
fronted by Captain Bear. Then, for
the first time, Krafts learned that the
woman was dead and it was all Cap
tain Bear could do to prevent the man
from killing himself. The couple were

FIRE AT KANSAS CITY.
A Five-Story Brick Building De-
StrOyed.

KANSAS CITY, April 14-The Scar
ritt block, substantial five-story brick
building on Walnut street, directly
across the street from the Central Sta
ton of the Kansas City Fire Depart
ment, was destroyed by fire this even
ing. The fire was not discovered until
the flames burst through the front
windows of the third story, spreading a
glare over the whole street. Although
the ffremen had but to run their ap-
paratus into the street, they seemed to
do nothing to combat the flames, as
they could throw no water into the
third story without strong pressure
and to get pressure they were obliged
to wait for some minutes for steam
BY that time the fire was beyond con-
troll, and threatened an entire block
in the center of the city,
The big six-story Hall building,
standing south on Walnut street onto
Ninth, in which are the Times" and
World" newspaper offices, several
stores and offices, were in great dam
ger, as it was soon on fire in the
upper story adjoining the Scarritt
block. The electric light wires went
down and everybody left the building.
The fire burned fiercely from 8
O'Clock until 1870. by which hour
nothing but the walls remained of the
Scarritt building. The value of this
building is 100000; insurance $4,000
A pure-food show had just been held
there. The loss on the Hall building is
not great The offices of the World"
were flooded, but the paper will be
printed tomorrow as usual. The
Times suffered no material damages.
Outside of the Scarritt building the
most serious damage was done to the
building occupied by the Campbell and
Eaton Crockery Company, fronting on
Main street and running back to the
rear end of the Scarritt block. A few
thousand dollars will. however, cover
the loss on the building and contents.
