certainly go to Utah. The gentlemen
assured the president that he would be

replied that he was sure of it.

IDAHO OFFICIALS QUARREL.
Open War Between Secretary of State
and Auditor.
Especial TO The HeraldO

Boise, Ida, Feb. 9.-The bitter feeling
between Secretary of State Lewis and
State Auditor Anderson has developed
into open warfare. For some weeks
there has been a great deal of discus
sion, especially in political circles, re-
speeding the action of the secretary of
state in connection with the TRANSCRIPT
ing and printing of the laws and jour
rails of the last session. EIr. Lewis
let the contract to the Sentinel Print
ing company for $4,000, and himself, as
an Individual, took a contract from the
printing company to do the transcrib-
ing and compiling, receiving therefor
Se75.
State Auditor Anderson held that the
charge was one that should have been
turred into the state as fees, while it is
understood the secretary of state holds
it is no part of his official duty to Go
this work, and that, as it was done at
times when it did not conflict with his
public duties, he had a right to do it
himself and receive the compensation
therefor.
After the matter had been gossiped
about for some time, Auditor Anderson
served a demand on Mr.. Lewis to turn
the money into the treasury. The Of
fetal document simply sets forth the
demand that Mir. Lewis pay the money
into the state treasury within 20 days,
and declaring that if he failed TO do so,
he, the auditor would start an account
that would draw legal interest from
date, and institute proceedings to col
lect the amount.
Mr.. Lewis today submitted a reply to
Mr.. Anderson's letter. He says that he
did not perform the work as secretary
of state, and adds:
In this connection, permit me to say
that rumors in relation to this matter,
and of a nature calculated to damage
my personal standing, have frequently
reached me, and 1 regret very much to
say that their origin has invariably
been imputed to you. These rumors
have been of an insinuating and malig-
nant character, and obviously circulat-
ed for the purpose of doing me great
personal injury. Permit me to ask if
you believe such methods to be honor
able? 1 submit that no man can regard
them as productive of pleasant per-
sonal relations affected in your letter.
and I think it is just to assume that
no man who INDUCES in them has a
reasonable cause for a legal action
Mir. Lewis declares his belief that Mr..
Anderson does not intend TO institute
the proceedings which he has threaten
ed, and demands that he do SO at once.

IMPORTANT INSURANCE DECISION
Notices of Assessment Were One Day
Behind.
Special to The Herald

Boise, Ida, Feb. "a telegram was
received here today announcing a de-
cision by the circuit court of appeals, at
San Francisco, of one of the most cele-
brated life insurance cases in the his
terry os the state.
Hon. e. J. Curtis, ex-secretary of
state, deceased, held a policy for $4,000
in the Mutual Reserve Fund Life asso-
citation, but when he died he was in ar
reers for two and a half years in his
assessments. The company refused TO
pay the policy, and the administrator
sued on the technical ground that the
notice of assessment was not legal. The
law of New York requiring 80 days no
tice was claimed to be violated. because
the notice sent the first of one month
for the payment to be made the first
day Of the following month was one
day behind. Under the well known rule
of computing such cases. Judge Beatty
decided against the insurance company,

Reina BarriOs, president of the republic
of Guatemala, was born in San Marcos, in
1869. He was q nephew OF the former
president Justo RufinO Barrios, who was
killed in 1885. The general was educated

In the ensuing war of federation. the pur-
pose of which was the unification of the
Central American states, the general was
placed in command of a division OF the
Liberal troops. During the war of 1885,
when his uncle. the president was killed

of the forces. Later on, WHEN President
Barrillas was in control he banished the
young general from Guatemala, and he
went direct 10 California. residing in San

rillas as president. his term OF Office (six
years. expiring in March of this year.
Last June he publicly declared himself
dictator of Guatemala. His partisans say
that under his administration the country
prospered and developed extensively.

DEMANDS ON SPAIN
JUDGE DAY SPEAKS PLAINLY.
Cuba Must BE Evacuated Speedily and the
Philippines Given up-rhe Cuban Debt
Will Not Bo Assumed.

London, Oct. ia dispatch to the
London News agency from Paris says:
To-day (MOndny) the peace confer
ence reached crisis for the first time.
Judge Day presented the demands of
the American commission In threaten
ing words. He said that delay was
the only possible object attainable by
the persistent efforts of the Spanish
commissioners to saddle the United
States with the Cuban debt, and
would be tolerated no longer, as the
United States would neither assume
nor guarantee any part of the debt.
''rhe Spaniards replied that this
placed Spain in n position to repudiate
or Of reducing the face value Of the
Cuban bonds from 30 to 60 per cent,
paying only half the stipulated inter-
est on the reduced value. Before they
would adopt either alternative, they
would surrender to the United States
the entire Philippines.
Judge Day responded that the sur
render Of the Philippines would prob
ably be demanded irrespective Of the
Cuban or of any other debt.
This, to the Spaniarls, the first in
timntiOn of the Intentions Of the Unit
ed States rs to the Philippines, result
ed In whispered conference, followed
by IL request for an adjournment in or
der to communicate with Madrid.
Judge Day said that President McKin-
ley had instructed him to demand the
entire surrender Of Porto Rico Tues
day and the delivery OF every town to
the United States officers before mid
night, together with the evacuation of
Havana on or before November 1st,
when the United States would be at
the gates of the city ready to take
possession.
There was no alternative offered In
the case of either OF these demands,
and the session consequently was
brief. The American commissioners
have received dispatches from Wash
ington indicating that the administra-
tion was irritated and Indignant over
the delay Of the Spanish commission
ers."
The Paris correspondent of the
Times says:
'.At the sitting of the Peace commits
sion this afternoon the American COM
missloners Officinlly-nnd 1t would
seem definitely-rejected the idea Of
accepting sovereignty over Cuba for
the United States.
1.-THE Spanish commissioners there
upon remarked that Spain. having
abandoned such sovereignty under
pressure from the United States, and
the United States having denied that
sovereignty henceforth belongs to
them, Cuba Is de facto In state OF an
archy as an intermission of sovereign
ty cannot be viewed In any other light.
The American commissioners rej0in-
ed that, without accepting sovereign
ty, the United States considered itself
deputed and bound to maintain secur-
ity for all the Inhabitants, that 1t
would not fail to introduce and uphold
order, and, In short, it would do all
that was necessary to put the island in
state of normal organization, to be
transformed Mt the earliest moment in
to legal regularity, satisfactory for
the security of all,
