GofP Is SUMMONED.
The West Virginia Judge Is offered a
Cabinet Place.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Judge Nathan
Golf Of West Virginia has been sum-
moned by the president. The confer
ence that viii take place upon his ar
rival at the White House will relate to
the vacancy in the cabinet that will
occur upon the elevation of Attorney
General McKenna to the supreme
bench next week The president de.
Eires that Judge Golf shall take the
vacancy in his official family and. 1t IS
understood, will tender the place If the
the West Virginian will accept.
1t is understood, however, that Judge
Golf does not entertain cabinet aspira-
tions. He is well satisfied with his pres
emit position, and his friends say that he
will only surrender it for place in the
United States senate as the successor of
Charles Faulkner, whose term expires
in 1899.
Senator Elkins was at the White
House accompanied by National Com
mitteeman N. B. Scott of West V1r-
glnia. After a conference with the
president. it was again announced that
Mr.. Scott would succeed W. S. Forman
of Illinois as Commissioner OF INTERNAL
revenue and that he would enter upon
the discharge of the duties of that POSI-
ton on Jan. 1.
Among West Virginians, the opinion
is heard that Mr.. Scott has also his eye
upon the seat of Senator Faulkner,
and that his position as commissioner
of internal revenue will aid him ma
terially in his ambition. AS Governor
Atkinson is an avowed candidate, there
promises to be a lively contest between
Messrs Golf, Scott and Atkinson for
the honor.

partment has been notified that the
Peruvian authorities are threatening
the interests of Victor McCord, the
American engineer, formerly from
Pennsylvania. who was arrested and
confined in that country during revo.
luton, and IN whose behalf our gov
eminent has preferred claim for in
demnity. The notification was form
ally given to the department from the
attorney who IS prosecuting the claim.
McCord, in letter to his attorney,
states he has been approached by Peru
Wan officials for a compromise. He
says he is willing to accept $50, GOO in
gold paid in Washington, but saws:
IF the matter is not settled and the
government is compelled to pay the
$50, 900 | shall be obliged to leave the
country, but that is no hardship, as I
prefer to live in the United States any.

McCord says all kinds of threats
looking to coercion, had been resorted to
calculated to intlame the ignorant peo-
pie of the realm against him, such as
threatening to expel him from the
country oblig ng the Peruvian railroad
corporation TO dismiss him from it's
service.
The attorney quotes the following
cabegram sent broadcast throughout
the United States:
LIMA, via Galveston, Nov. 21.-The
newspaper press of the country have
requested the government to oblige the
Peruvian corporation to dismiss from
its service ictor II. McCord, an Amer
lean citizen, because Mr.. McCord Is
pushing claim for damages for false
arrest and imprisonment against
Peru
He also quotes from a letter Mr.. E.
@. White OF 1856 Liberty street, New
York. for years engaged in business
pursuits in Peru, addressed to President
Mckinley, in which he says:
Just as sure as this McCord claim
is not promptly paid, it Will embolden
others (Peruvlans) under pretext of re-
bellion or revolution, to murder OR
maltreat Americans at will, knowing
that If this just claim is not paid there
is no protection for Americans in this
country"

BERLIN, Dec. 1.-The German gov.

Baron Won Bulos, the German minis
ter for foreign affairs, gave the United

White, wholly satisfactory explana-
ton of Germany's intentions toward
Haiti.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Reports that

threatened by the outbreak of disorders
in Haiti.

HUNGRY KLONDIKERS.
The Cabiuet again Considered Relief.
Appeal From the Pacific Coast-Man
Sent to Get Lap1auders to Drive Rein
deer to III Gold Country.

WASHINGTON, Dec 1.-The cabinet
has considered the subject of sending
relief to the people in the Klondlke.
President Mckinley received a tele.
gram from Portland (Or.) chamber of
commerce stating that there was dam
ger of restitution and suffering on the
Klondlke aud Offering 60 supply the
necessary food for relief if the govern
ment would undertake it's transporta-
ton.
The information was not definite as
to the actual conditions, but was ON the
line that as been telegraphed from the
northwest.
The cabinet considered every phase
of the situation and discussed ways
and means of affording relief.
A dispatch recently stated that 10,-
600 head of horses and cattle went to
the klondike from Dyea short time
ago, but Commissioner Smith at Dyea
has wired the government that such is
not the fact. He says 900 sheep started
over the Dyea trail and that it is be-
lieved they reached the mines. Some
time ago 300 sheep were sent down the
Yukon, of which 200 may have reached
the klondike.
Other advices reported that herd of
reindeer with supplies had been started
from point ON the Lower Yukon,
about 600 miles from above st. Mich
aels, the heard reaching the place by
cutting across land from point OPP
posite on the coast. These reindeer are
carrying supplies up and number of
people anxious to get down from the
Klondike country will be brought back
by these means. This herd will be used
through the winter, as far as possible.
The relief supplies will have to be
sent over the passes. Reindeer and
dogs possibly may be used, and there is
also suggestion that the steam snow
engine, which has been successfully
used in the deep snow of the logging
camps, may be utilized. Secretary AL
ger has coniideace in it as a means of
Transportation.

NEW YORK, Dec. Martin Thorn
has confessed that he killed William
Guldensuppe.
When he had been led back to his
cell after the conviction in court he ad-
mitted that the verdict was just, and
that he and not Mrs. Mack killed Gull
densuppe. This acknowledgment of
guilt took place while Thorn's cell in
the Jail was being prepared for him.
During the trial Thorn has been under
charge of Police. Captain Methyen of
Flushing. Captain Methven had him
under his w&tchful eye when the Jail
officials searched the cell Thorn is to
occupy for day or two. While this
was being done Thorn talked with the
police captain. he said:

given. | am convicted and | am con-
tented. 1t was | who killed Gulden-
suppe and | cut up his body. Every
word that Mrs. Mack said upon the

further | am guilty and am convicted.
1t is what expected and what sup

Martin Thorn has been convicted of
murder in the first degree in killing
William Guldensuppe, his predecessor
in the affections of Mrs. Augusta \ aok.
at Woodside, l.. l., on June 25 At the
request of Thorn's counsel the passage
of the death sentence was deferred until
next Friday morning. Thorn heard the
iurymen Dolled on their verdict, but
his face never changed color during the
trying ordeal. With lips firmly COM
pressed and jaws hard set, he faced the
judge. jury and courtroom full of spec
tators with well feigned stoicism.
About three weeks ago Thorn's first
trial on the charge Of murder was be-
gun, but owing to the illness of
Juror it had to be abandoned after
three days A second trial opened
week ago last Monday, and counting
cut 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
lawyers 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 that she herself was the in
stigator and perpetrator of the murder,
Thorn being ignorant of the killing
until after Guldensuppe had been shot
by Mrs. Mack. The woman was not
produced during the second trial, but
Thorn went on the stand and substan-
tlated all the assertions made by his
lawyers as to the midwife's guilt
The jury remained in elaboration

Thorn's lawyers moved for new

Just what will become of Mrs. Mack
has not been made known by the
Queens county authorities, but it is
generally thought that the people will
accept plea from her which will not
call for capital punishment.
Thorn later confessed that he, and
not Mrs. Mack, killed Guldensuppe.
