ton thereon The cognate subjects on the
programme were grouped and referred to
separate committees for report later in the
week.
The report of the executive council stated
in reference to the Nicaragua canal that the
board had uniformly favored the carrying
out of this enterprise, but in view of the
prospect of a bitter contest between the
companies now, holding concessions from the
government of Nicaragua ii may be well for
the board to give some attention to the
availability of the Panama route. Refer
ence was made to the recent war with Spain
and the hope expressed that wise legislation
tnsuring prosperity and happiness to the
United States and newly-acQuired lands
would follow. Committees were appointed
as follows: On public health. banking and
currency, war revenue taxation, interstate

marine. reciprocity and American trade. in

the Chamber of Commerce of Pittsburg
and the following resolution on the subject
was adopted:
Resolved. That the judgment of this Ma
tional Board of Trade, as we'll as the ma@
derial interests of civilized society. demand
the immediate establishment between the
United States and Great Britain of a per-
manent system of arbitration; and the ear
1iest possible extension of such a system,
to embrace all civilized nations and that it
IS earnestly recommended that our govern
ment proceed with the necessary steps to
negotiate such a treaty with Great Britain
as will secure these ends. and, so far as
human endeavor goes make future wars
between these great nations impossible"

MRS. BOTKIN'S TRIAL.
Testimony of the Doctors Who At
tended the Poisoned Victims.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 13.-The Botkin
case is proceeding with great rapidity. The
CT oss-eXamination of the witnesses who
have already appeared has been gone
through with rapidity, and the attorneys
for the defense have not been at all severe
in their questioning. 1t is presumed that
their great effort will be made when it
comes to the connecting of the poison with
their client. Mrs. Botkin appears to be get
ting more nervous under the strain. She
has repeatedly declined invitations to ques-
ton witnesses.
Hon. John b. Pennington, father of Mrs.
John +. Dunning and Mrs. Joshua Deane.
was the first witness called at to-day's ses-
sion of the court. His testimony was unim-
portant. Dr. J.. II. Bishop, who attended
Mrs. Dunning and Mrs. Deane during their
illness. testified TO the symptoms of the VIC
Tins and his treatment of them. He admits
that he did not know what had caused the
death of his patients until after a chemical
analysis of the candy had been made and
that his first impression as to the cause of
the trouble was ptomane poisoning. He
described the sufferings of the patients dur
ing the early hours and said they were ex-
actly similar. the witness suffered at the
hands of Lawyer Knight who questioned
him on his knowledge of poisonS and their
symptoms. He admitted that he did not
know the nature of the illness of Mrs. Dun
ming or Mrs. Deane, and that he did not
know until two days later that they had
eaten candy.
Or. Downs, of Dover who also attended
Mrs Dunning and Mrs. Deane, gave testi-
mony similar to that given 10y the proceed
ing witness. DIR. Wolfe, the analytic chem
ist. who analyzed some of the candy, testi-
fled that he analysed three pieces of the
candy and found about half a grain of
porcelain arsenic In the three pieces. He
identified some of the candy but could not
identify the box. The testimony was of an
expert nature.

ROW In POLICE COURT.
Judge and Lawyer Have a Hot Time"
Former Assaulted Later.

ST. LOUIS, Dec 13.-A riot occurred in
the First District Police Court to-day. dur
ing which Judge Thomas II. Peabody, on
the bench, sat with his revolver in his hand,
while Attorney ]. d. Storts, with drawn
weapon. denounced the judge in unmeasured
terms because of Il decision he declared I'M
fair TO his clients. The attorney was de-
Tending four women charged with being
questionable characters, and the judge de-
clined to continue their cases for more than
one day This angered Storts, who drew
his revolver and launched into lurid denun-
citation of the judge. The judge drew his
revolver and called for officers to throw the
attorney out. The officers responded, and
and after Il battle. during which furniture
was demolished, the lawyer was placed be-
hind the bars. The trial was then taken up
and the women fired heavily.
Tonight, while Judge Peabody was about
to enter his home, on Page boulevard two
men, supposed to be friends Of Attorney
Storts, sprang upon him and began assault
ing him with their fists. The judge at
tempted to defend himself, but was over
powered. He was being worsted, when his
cries attracted a private Waterman, who
ran to his rescue, and the assailants disap-
peared The judge was bruised, but not
seriously injured. Referring to the trouble
in the court to-day, the judge said: when
Storts made that charge at me with his re-
volver, of course 1 was prepared for him,
and I would have fired if it had not been
that there were a dozen persons behind him.
] considered that my life was in jeopardy,
and l meant TO shoot at the first oppor-
tunity." AS there is bitter enmity between
Attorney Storts and the judge, it is feared
there may yet be more srious trouble.

RESIGNATION ACCEPTED.
President Dwight'S Wishes Respected
by the Corporation of Yale.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Dec. 13.-The mem
bers of the corporation of Yale University
held a meeting to-day to consider the resig-
nation of President Dwight which was
presented at the last stated meeting of the
corporation. 1t was learned that President
Dwight had refused to accede to the re-
quest made by the corporation to defer his
resignation until after the bi-centennial
celebration in 1901, and announced his pur-
pose Of adhering to his previously an
nounced determination to resign at the end
Of the present academic year. 1t was also
learned that the corporation finally accepted
the presidents resignation and adopted
eulogiStic resolutions.
The resolutions reluctantly accept Presi-
dent DWights resignation and say: Enter
ing upon his office just as the transition
from college to university became an ac-
complished fact, President Dwight has
guided the development of the new condi-
lions and relations with courage, SKILL pa
tience and resolution. During this eventful
period the endowmentS intruSted to the cor
poration have been more than doubled in
amount; new buildings have been erected of
more than two millions in value; the annual
income OF the corporation for all purposes
has increased more than $50 per cent. the
number of officers and instructors has in
creased very nearly 125 per cent, and the
number of students in all departments near
~ 135 per cent. In the progress thus ex-
hibited the personal character and personal
most significant factor, and with note
worthy disinterestedness and devotion
he himself has given to the universe
ty more than 100000 or more than
twice the amount of the remuneration to
which his office was entitled. The members
of the. corporation, mindful of the many
years in which DR.. Dwight was a diligent,
q scholarly and sympathetic instructor
and. of the grateful remembrance in which
he is held by his students, find it difficult
to adequately express their appreciation of
his efforts in behalf of the various depart
mentS of the university. or their personal
regard for him. They desire, however, to
place, upon their records and to give to
the alumni and the public at least this tes-
timony to what he has accomplished in
Justice to themselves, to the several facuI-
ties and to the general feeling Of the city
and the commonwealth in the midst Of
WHICH he has lived and wrought q great
public service with eminent integrity idel-
ity and success. Into the well-earned re-
tirement which he has chosen there will fol-
low the heartfelt wishes of them all that
his remaining days may be tranquil, that
his life may be prolonged, that he may rich
~ enjoy every possible recompense of an
honored and useful career"

ARC LAMP WITHOUT CARTONS.

London Daily Mail.
Provisional protection has just been OBJ
tanned for what appears to be valuable
electric arc lamp invention. The chief merit
of the new lamp, for which patents have
been applied for in England and other coun-
tries by Mr.. Peter Spies, of Fossdeneroad,
Charlton, lies in the fact that the ordinary
carbons, inseparable from other electric arc
lights, are not required at all.
Nowadays everybody is more or less fa-
miliar with the arc lights used so extern
sively for street and other outdoor illumina-
ton. Doubtless, however, few of the gen.
eral public are aware that at the point of
illumination the electric current flows along
sticks of carbon. which are gradually
burned away by the intense beat and have
to be regularly replaced The cost of ma
