GRESHAM GANGS PRISONERS.
Belief Prevails That They Have B Been
Put to Death.

KANSAS CITY, Feb. Ga special
to the Times from Guthrie, o. T.,
says:
For twenty-four hours posses of
United States Marshals and the Creek
light horsemen have been securing the
Creek country for the Grisham gang
and their prisoners, the Lurtins, ia
ther and son, and Charles Moore. No
trace of the men can be found. The
idea generally prevails that the pris-
oners have been put TO death.
Deputy Marshals Sam Wisby and
Charles Laux returned to Guthrie to-
night from Stroud. Ed. Lurtin is be-
lieved TO have escaped from the Girls
hams, as some one has telegraphed in
his name from Sapulpa that his father
and Moore were killed by the Grisnam

THE FATE or ERYTHREi.

The announcement that the Italian Govern
mpnt has decided to abandon Erythrea Is entire
" credible. Since the disaster at AdOwa eleven
months ago. and the consequent retirement from

nance over Abyssna. Italys occupation in

ND stretch Of Red Sea littOral. Is Of small value

whole scheme Of protectorate over Abyssinia.
with MassOwah as the outlet Of the whole re-
gion from Knssala to Kaffa, could not be exc
cuted. there was logically nothing left bur TO
withdraw from it altogether. 1t is a somewhat
startling performance TO make such withdrawal

enterprise in Africa--an issue on which 10 go to
the country in a general election. but the bold
move may be successful. Signor Crispi is the
only man AT all disposed 10 challenge the Gov
eminent on that issue. and Slgnor Crspi was
Prime Minister at the time of Adowa.
The most interesting question connected with
the case Is not so much what the Italian people
will say with their ballots. as what will become
of Erythrea after the Italians have abandoned
IT, There is Of course, no lack Of claimants
Abyssinia would like TO regain possession
France would greatly like 10 add il to Obok-
and, indeed claims on some obscure ground. re-
version Of title Russia is even more urgent in
her desire. especially since she has entered into
relations with Abyssinia which are halfaanco
half protectorate. Erythrea would give her d.
rect territorial connection with AbyssinIa. which
she could not otherwise hope to gain. Finally
there Is Great Britain-or Egypt If the formal
ties be observed-who makes particularly d
rect and forceful claim TO Massowah. at any
rate. on the ground that that port was formerly
Egyptian. and was coded by Egypt to Italy on
the express condition that IL Italy should give 1t

pretty Quadratcral complication.
Highly significant Of British purposes in con
nection with this matter was the recent visit of
Leg Merchia to Cairo, where he was daily in
close consultation with Lord Cromcr and the
Coptic Patriarch. Leg Mercha Is the greatest
diplomat in Abyssna, and he Is warm friend
and ally Of Ras Mangascia. The latter Abys
sna's greatest general, Is the nearest surviving
relative OF the late King john and therefore his
heir and lawful successor as Negus Although
for the time apparently loyal to King Meneek,
he really hates him and regards him as an
usurper. Menelek. moreover. as has hitherto
been pointed out, Is merely de facto Negus.

In the autumn of that year. In yesterdays Tri5-

the section Of the Constitution relating to prison

inference Is plain that the second was copy
and slight amplilicatOn Of the first. The genesis
Of the constitutional provision is not hard TO
trace 1t was asked for and insisted on by the
few labor delegates sitting in the convention.
That their sole contribution TO The resulting
work of the body was accepted by the majority
is hard to understand. but, as we are informed,
the only prominent member who opposed its
adoption was the distinguished presiding officer,
Mr.. Joseph II. Choate.
or course. this part Of the Constitution was not
approved by the people without their attention
being called to it. anu considerable proportion
of those who voted with the majority did so In
the confident expectation that an amendment
would be adopted in time to prevent another
era OF idleness in the States penal institutions
The preliminary Steps tOWaru securing such an
amendment were promptly taken. and the Legis-
ature OF 1895 approx ed it. Last year. however,
no affirmative action was taken by the Legis-
lature. and by the terms Of the Constitution
