will this government, through its Paris
representatives, consent TO a treaty
which does not involve a complete sur
render Of Spanish sovereignty therein.
II may be further stated that this gov
eTnment will not assume any of the
Spanish debt or obligations, possibly
beyond the guarantee of certain munic-
ipal obligations which have been in
CURED in substantial municipal i'm
provements. The debt which Spain has
incurred in her efforts TO put down the
insurrection will neither be paid. as
sumed nor guaranteed by the United
States. This fact, it is quite certain;
was distinctly stated TO our commits
sioners before they left Washington.
Whether or not this government would
consent to the payment Of any sum of
money to Spain for any part Of her
territory taken possession of by the
United States, should any be found to
be due upon a financial settlement of
the account, cannot be stated at this
time, and it is believed that this par

Chicago, Oct 29.-Commissioner of

city, stopping at the Great Northern,
states that up to Sept. 80 the war with
Spain had caused the loss If the lives

He further. declares that the statistics
OF his office shows that the percentage
of deaths in camps from disease during
last summer was much less than dur
ing the civil war. Commissioner Evans,
being asked for further particulars,
spoke as follows:
During the rebellion 10000 men We're
killed in battle, and 100000 perlShed IN

SHORTAGE In Coal Cars.

Should cold weather set in at the
present time. there would undoubtedly
be a coal famine in the city. Nearly
every coal dealer is more or less short
in filling orders, on account of the
scarcity OF cars. Particularly is this
true of the Union Pacific, which now is
something Ike 200 carloads behind.
Traffic on the road is so unprecedent-
ediy large that not nearly enough cars
can be secured TO bring the product to
the city, according to Manager Moore.
The Sweetwater people are in the
same 0redieament. So are other COM
panies, so that should the chilly winds
of winter sweep over the Wasatch or
Oquirrh within the next few days, the
supply on hand would soon be ex-
hauSted

Defendant Pleads Not Guilty-Dela-
ware Heard From.
San Francisco. Oct. 29.-Mrs Cordelia
Botkin was formally arraigned before
Judge Carroll Cook today upon the in
dictment filed by the grand jury last
evening. charging her with the murder
of Mrs. John p Dunning of Dover,
Del. No objection was made to the
Indictment. Mrs. Botkin pleaded not
guilty. and, by consent, her case was
held over until Saturday next to be
set for trial.
The attorney general of Delaware
has instructed Detective McVey to en-
ploy an attorney to get the Botl&in case
into the United States supreme court.
A writ of habeas corpus will be ap-
piled for by McVey in the district or
circuit court Should the application
be denied. an appeal will be taken to
the United States supreme court. There
is only one possible obstacle to such a
course. The district court or circuit
court which denied the application may
also refuse to allow an appeal. Such
refusal is very rare and was held by
Judge Sawyer to BE- beyond the power
of the lower court in habeas corpus
cases: but both the district and circuit
courts lately refused to permit Durrant
to appeal They took the ground that
the request for leave to appeal. was
frivolous and made with intent to him

MUSSULMANS EXECUTED.
Took Part In Massacre of British
Soldiers.

Gambia, Crete, Oct 29.-Five more of
the Mussulmans convicted of taking
part in the massacre of British soldiers
on Sept. 5, were executed today. In
addition, four bashi- -bazouks have
been sentenced to 20 years imprison-
ment at hard labor.
Since the departure of the Turkish
troops a number of additional guilty

daily. 1t appears that the Turkish Off
GERS appropriated the valuables looted
by their soldiers.
