CATION instituted by the Reform League

The action of the board has caused a
decided sensation, as 1t was unexpected.
Marshal Frey has been on the force for
tuirty years AMI has been marshal for
twelve years He is democrat, while a
majority of the police commissioners are
republicans. No appointments have been
mace In place of those removed. but others

The charges were preferred by the execu-
I'VE committee of the Reform League of
this city Capt. j. J. Gilbert and Round
Sergt. Edward Meehan also received their
dismissal at the hands of the commission
ers. and several minor changes in the
Iorce were made. Deputy Marshal Thomas
r. Farnam was temporarily placed in
charge of the force.
The vote by which the dismissaIs and
changes were made was a strictly partisan
one, commissioners Schriver, the only DEM
ocrat on the police board, voting in the
negative on every proposition while his
TWO republican colleagues, Heddinger ana
Johnson. voted together at all times.
Frey during his long term of service has
made many important arrests and ferreted
out many mysterious cases. among them
being the fsmous Ginger trunk mystery

POLLASKY OR CRAWFORD
Strong Fight for President of League Of
Republican Clubs.
The Chicago Lawyer Seems to He The
FavOfite So Far-DeleRates Z.
Arrive Slowly.

DETROIT. July 12.-Delegates to the Ma
tfonal League Of Republican Clubs conven-
ton did not come in very rapidly by to-
days trains. but a large influx is expected
tonight Elaborate preparations are being
made at the Auditorium in the way Of dec
orations. and ali the hotel Hobbies are be-
ginning to assume holiday appearance.
The two leading candidates for president
Of the league have opened headquarters at
the two leading hotels, respectively. Mar
Gus Pollasky, the Chicago lawyer, who
seems to be in the lead. has established
himself at the Russell House, and Leonard
]. Crawford of Kentucky, a close second,
dispenses hospitality at the Cadillac.
Mr.. Crawford's Reliance.
Mr.. Crawford's friends are relying on the
recent change of political sentiment in
Kentucky to secure for him a good many
votes, and they are confidently claiming
that he will be elected. The combination at
the Kentucky headquarters appears to be
Crawford. Chaplin and Omaha''-Crawford
for president, Ora E. Chaplin of Chicago
for secretary and Omaha for the next con-
vertion. Mr.. Crawford was one of the at
torneys for Walling and Jackson, who
were convicted of the murder of Pearl
Bryan. He has been the republican dele
gate for attorney general of Kentucky, and
Is one of the leading lawyers of the state.
About twenty-five Kentuckians are on the
field now, and many more expected to help
boom Mr.. CrawfOrd's candidacy.
Among the prominent blue grass men
already here are D. H. Slime, president of
the Kentucky State League: ID. N. Com

ator when Deboe was elected, and John w.
Yerkes. national committeeman from Ken

POllnsky Popular In Detroit.
The candidacy of Marcus Pollasky is
especially popular in Detroit and Michigan
on account of his long residence in the
state. His friends are claiming for him
the solid Michigan delegation. The presi-
dency and the location of the next con-
vention are almost the only topics of in
terest discussed around the hotels in con-
nection with the convention. The resolu-
lions adopted will doubtless be an indorse-
ment of last years ST. Louis convention.
The first session will be held tomorrow at
10 o'clock.

HAWAII WOULD ARBlTRATE.
OHcr Regarding Her Difference
With .Janan.

Conscious of the business Of her case, the
republic Of Hawaii has offered to submit to
arbitration the differences between it and
the government Of Japan arising out Of the
immigration controversy, but so far the
latter has made no response to the offer.
According to Geographic Information from
San Francisco. the offer was contained in
the reply made by the Hawaiian minister
Of foreign affairs to the Cemand made upon
the Hawaiian government by Mr.. Shtmu-
mura, the Japanese minister at Honolulu,
for indemnity for the exclusion of a num-
Der Of Japanese immigrants in alleged con-
travention Of the treaty between the two
countries.
1t is stated at the State Department that
the question Of the arbitration Of the diff
ferencss between Japan and Hawaii has
not been brought to the attention Of the
United States government in any form, but
that there Is no reason to doubt that Ha-
vail is perfectly willing to accept that
method Of settling its controversy with
Japan.

CRITICIsEs THE MAYORS ACTION.
Gov. Black of New York Commits
si0ner Pnrker's Removal.

Gov. Black OF New YORK on COmmfS-
sioner Pnrker's Removal.
ALBANY, N. Y, July Ex-Governor Black
today announced his disapproval of Mayor
Strong's order of removal of Police Com
missioner Andrew d. Parker of New York
city.
The order of removal was issued after a
hearing by the mayor the charge of ne
glect of his official duties by Commissioner
Parker. The governor says:
In my judgment, the charge has not
been sustained. That the efficiency of the
police board could have been greater, is I'M
doubtedly true. but the failure to attain
such efficiency seems to have been due
rather to the infirmities of several of its
members than to the neglect of one. The
offense charged is serious. but the testi-
mony to support 1t is much of it trivial,
and as a whole, insufficient.
"A proceeding of such magnitude, whose
effects must be far-reaching and harmful.
should not be instituted unless evidence
exists which is at least partially adequate
to the gravity of the charge"

Gov. Bushnell of Ohio Discusses the
Miners Troubles.

tTbHDfeS.
A dispatch from Springfield. Ohio says:
Concerning the miners strike Governor
Bushnell said:
81 have said to that 1 believed
the miners strike would be over in u week.
i believe, however, from the present ap-
pearance of things that an early settle
ment of the difficulties is probable. This
statement 1 base the knowledge that
nearly every one concerned is anxious to
have the trouble el1e1.'
The governor said that he had taken
some trouble to Investigate the condition
of the miners of Ohio. and had found
that they were scarcely able 10 get along
on the small earnings which they made.
For this reason he said that he believed
there was certainly some Justice in their
demands, though as to the amount of an

entitled to. said he considered that to ha

Their wages" he said, might be sUfli-
cient to keep them, and they could live
very well. If they could work every day.
but it is, they scarcely average more
tran TWO or three days week. and that
makes their earnings very small indeed

wise the miners of Ohio, said he, Ito alb
stain from all violence, and commit
breaches of the peace, telling them that
they Row have public sentiment in their
favor, and will have so long as they con-
duCt themselves In a peaceful manner
The governors opinion is that if few
of the operators announce that they will
offer to pay the higher wages, the others
will soon follow. When asked concerning

governors of four states forming board

he did not think they We're the proper per-
sons. but that the labor cOmm:sS oners

The President has referred to this de-

at Lima reported that the Peruvian bill

ION March u last the department ad-
vised our legation at Lima of its hope that
Peru would adopt a marriage law more
consonant with the general practice of
modern nations. and expressed Its concern
lest the civil rights of American citizens in
that quarter might be impaired through
the deficiency of the existing law. 1t was
further stated that this government would
be glad to learn that the subject wouli be
revived at the next session of the congress
