Madrid, Oct. lit is serni-officially
announced today that Captain General
WeyIer viii be recalled from Cuba this
month, and that it is probable the cor
ties win be dissolved in December and a
new parliament convolled in March,
Washington. Oct. THE state de-
rartment has not yet been officially
informed Of the purpose of the Span
ish government to dissolve the cortes
in December. It was expected that it
would be found necessary for the cabi-
net to go TO the country in order to
secure the support OF majority of a
liberal policy towards Gus, inasmuch
as the present cortes has j clear Con-
servatiYe majority whenever that party
element can be brought together. Dis
appointment is felt at the remote date
set for the converting of the new cor
tes, Cor it is presumed that any new
programme FOR the settlement of Gu
ban affairs must be ratified by the cor
tes, and if this is not to meet until
next March the long delay, it is feared,
will give rise TO irritation and perhaps
tax beyond the powers Of endurance of
the present administration.

she was missing and when search was
made for her the attendants found that
one of the iron bars Of the room in
which she had been confined had been
filed and bent outward. The bar could
not have been moved except by a great
outlay of strength, and all the circum-
stances go to prove the cooperation of
outsiders in her escape. The authori-

lima. Several Of the employees of the

today of the committee on India famine

Paris. Idaho. Oct. 5.-For some time
past there has been considerable petty
talieving going on in this place, and

the premises. The people were sur

eight boys were arrested late last night
by City Marshal Adelbert Rich and

them was the son of Deputy Sheriff

sailed Editor Wallis Of the Post. Not
only have the few fruit trees in town
been stripped this season and in al
most every instance the trees destroyed,
but hen roosts have been robbed, goods
stolen from the stores and even money

were arraigned this morning before
Justice Smedley, and all pleaded guilty.

rested when ne returns home. 1t is said
that Attorney Sam Rich's boy took the
money from the till, while some of the
other boys engaged the attention of the
clerk at another counter.
1t is a good thing that the matter has
been taken in hand, not only Tor the
community, but for the boys them
selves. Sentence is to be pronounced in

THE BERlNG SEAL CONFERENCE.
England Never Intended to Join ia
pan and Russia.

Washington, Oct. THE state de-
partment has received fun information
as to the position Of the British gov
eminent on the proposed Bering Sea
conference. Great Britain intends not
to enter a conference unless 1t is linn
tied to the experts OF the United States.
Great Britain and Canada The report
also tells what led the Marquis of Sal
iSburY TO this conclusion.
The British view is that at no stage
of the proceedings had Great Britain
agreed to a conference except that be-
tween experts of Great Britain. Can
ada and the United States. 1t is not
questioned that Secretary Sherman
and Ambassador Hay made sugges-
tons that the conference should be be-
tween the powers interested" and
that some OF the notes from the Unit
ed States authorities expressed q desire
TO have Russia and Japan take part in
the conference, but it is pointed out
that these suggestions came from the
United States, and until accepted would
have no effect in determining the ma
ture of the conference. So far as the
suggestions were accepted. the note of
Lord Salisbury on July Is, mentioned
only a conference between the experts
of the United States. Great Britain and
Canada
The latest correspondence on the
subject leads to considerable doubt as
TO who viii participate in the meeting.
1t has been understood that the differ
ence would be bridged over by holding
two meetings, in one of which Russia
and Japan would participate without
Great Britain, while a second meeting
would be held between the experts OF
Great Britain and the United States
It is understood that Ambassador Hay
was directed to effect such an arrange
ment in case Great Britain declined tc
enter the general conference. There is
now some question whether the British
authorities will participate in any way
until a definite understanding is reach
! ed as TO who viii take part, as she is
reluctant to join in q dual conference
and some doubt whether the British
I experts will leave for this country tt
attend either a general or limited con
! ference until an understanding i:
reached on the entire subject. 4 salts
factory adjustment may yet be reached
