A SUSSEX CRITICISM.

The Delaware Democrat, OF George
town, which is edited by one OF the
foremost and most conservative mem
bers OF the Sussex county bar, makes
this criticism Of the personnel OF the
grand Jurors drawn for service in the
United States District Court for the
September term, at which Senator h.
r, Kenney will be tried:
II is a remarkable fact that of the
grand jurors drawn on Wednesday for
the September term of the United
States Court thirteen Of the twenty
three were from Wilmington, four from
rural New Castle, four from Kent
county and two from Sussex. It will
be seen that more than half the num-
ber are residents OF Wilmington, and
more than two-thirds belong in New
Castle county, leaving less than one
third from both the lower counties.
The system Is at fault somewhere.
Either the proper number from each
county was not put in the wheel or
pains were not taken to shake them up,
as they should have been. The enor-
nous disproportion should be avoided
in some way as Kent and Sussex are
almost completely ignored in the selec-
ton.
Probably the jury commissioners can
enlighten the Sussex editor as to the
cause Of this condition.

SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE.
HAS BEEN OBTAINED TO CONVICT
MFRS BnTKIN- SAYS cnIInnHr L lLrr.,

HAS BEEN OBTAINED TO CONVICT
MRS. BOTKIN, SAYS CHIEF LEES.
The San Francisco authorities are
still at work on the Dunning-Deane
murder mystery, and now think they
have sufficient evidence to connect
Mrs. Botkin with the crime A San
Francisco special of yesterday says:
Chief of Police Lees now believes he
has evidence enough to warrant the
governor in sending Mrs. Cordelia Bot
kin to Delaware The chiefs star wit
.nesses are Miss Sylvia Henry and Miss
Kitty Dittmer. employed in Haas
candy store here.
A woman entered the Haas store on
Sunday, July 81, and requested Miss
Henry to make up box of chocolates.
She wanted a pink box She looked
over samples and selected one. The
woman askd Miss Henry to fill it with
chocolate creams. The woman appear
ed agitated. and frequently asked the
girl to hurry. The customer told the
clerk not to pack the box full, as she
desired to put in a present.
The order was given in such a hur-
ried manner that Miss Henry became
nervous and asked Miss Dittmer to
hand her the tissue paper which is al
ways placed upon the candies when the
boxes are packed to their limit Miss
Henry tied up the box of sweets and
handed the package to the woman, who
then bustled out of the store. The
young woman watched her walk out,
noticed the swing of her skirts, and
when the other day she saw Mrs. Bot
kin trip from Judge Cooks court room
to the city prison she was convinced
that Mrs. Botkin was the woman who
had bought the candy from her that
day in July.
Governor Budd has agreed to hear
the application for extradition in this
city. The governor has informed the
chief of police that he will act solely
on the deposition presented to him
The witnesses must appear and make
their statements under oath and Mrs
Botkln's attorneys will have ample op-
pcrtunity to question them.
Another witness, Mrs. Lena Roth-
lNuff, of sacraments, has bobbed up
She was in this city at the ferry on
August 4 about O'Clock. She saw q
short woman, not unlike Mrs. Botkin
enter the area in front of the post Of
flee.
She carried a wrapped box that in
size and shape resembled a box oil
candy. The woman hesitated mo-
ment when she reached the window
She made a motion as if to retire fol
few steps and then returned to drol
the package in the mail. Mrs. Botkin
however, says she can prove that sht
was well on her way to St. Helena a
the time her double appeared at th'
ferry depot in this city.
1t will be recalled that ]. e. Fennes
see tells the same story as does Mrs
Rothkuff.

Senator Gray has reconsidcred his
refusal to become member OF the
Peace Commission, and yesterday after
noon he notified President Mckinley OF
his acceptance. while the country will
benetit by the services Of the senator in
this connection, his great ability being
recognized by all, we incline to the be-
lief that his acceptance is made at a
sacrifice OF his own political interests
here at home. But he is a man who
performs a duty regardless OF sacri.
fee and his action at this time is but
another demonstration Of that fact.
