in front of the Wholesale House of
Grebe s. Co., marshal Yockey came
toward them and said Where are
you fellows going?' At this, Burris
drew his revolver on Yockey and,
undoubtedly would have killed him
had not Yockey been too quick and
shot first. The shot took effect and
killed Burris instantly; at this John
McClane handed his revolver to
Yockey, saying II will go with you
anywhere. He was taken to the Erie
Jail Tuesday morning. County at
torney Cline arrived Tuesday after
noon and the inquest was held in the
evening, and the verdict was justifla-
BILE homicide. While the people Of
Chanute are sorry that human life has

in fact, could not have done different.

WEARY OF DELAY.
Americans Will Not Further Discuss
the Cuban Debt Question.

WASHINGTON, Oct. N.---Nothing of spe-
cial Importance has been received recently
from our peace commissioners at Paris. 1t
was again reiterated to-day that, under no
circumstances, would the United States as
sumo any part of the so-called Cuban debt,
or the debt charged against the Philippine
islands. 1t might be possible that the
United States would assume or guarantee
the municipal obligations of havana or other
cuban cities. or, at least, would not permit
them to be repudiated. The same might be
true of Manila. but as TO the national debt
which Spain had seen fit to charge against
Cuba or the Philippines, neither would be
assumed or in any sense guaranteed. This
policy it was declared. our peace commits
sioners we'll understood. and it would not
be receded from in the slightest degree.
1t is thought that at to-day's meeting of
tho peace commission in Paris the Amer
lean commissioners delivered to their adj
versaries something very closely approach
Ing an ultimatum. The President is salts
fled at last that the Spanish commissioners
are purposeiy delaying the negotiations.
This is the belief of the American comnsis-

LUMBERTON. N. c., Oct 24-The ex-
pected riot between the races at Ashpole
this county, Saturday night was averted
A. telephone message from Ashpole stated
that crowd of mutinous negroes who had
been around the village all day making
threats had entered the village armed, and
the whites expected to be attacked any min
ute, and asked that aid be sent. Several
men went down from here, and as the ne
groes seemed to be quieting down the whites
dispersed, few gathering around a small
fire in the center of the street as a guard
About 3 o'clock several blacks slipped up
near the crowd and fired into them, wound
ing three men, none seriously. They then
ran, and the whites Immediately wired to
Florence and procured boodhounds, which
were met at Elrod by a special engine,
which had them at Ashpole by 10 o'clock.
Immediately the dogs struck q hot trail
and by l o'clock four blacks had been
caught. They were taken to Ashpole. and
it is said have confessed that they were in
the crowd, and implicated others, some of
whom were caught. The sheriff is now hunt
ing them. The captured negroes told who
burned Stubbss store at Ashpole on Thurs
day night The negroes are confined in
box car at Ashpole, and are well guarded
1t is reported that the posse in pursuit of
the other negroes have shot one of them

sion also. The time has now come to cut off
all false pleas and to come directly to the
main issue left open by the protocol name
ly-the disposition of the Philippines. Up
to this point the entire time of the COM
missioners has been consumed in repeated
efforts on the part of the Spanish commits
sioners to force the Cuban debt issue on
the attention of the joint commission
against the firm intention of the American
commissioners. The latter have stated as
positively as they could that under no cir
cumstances will they assume sovereignty
over Cuba, involving an assumption of the
Cuban debt, and the time has now come
when, ir the opinion of the American COM
missioners, the Spaniards must be made to
understand that this answer is final and
conclusive. So far the American commits
sioners. while presenting a firm attitude,
have treated the Spaniards with the utmost
courtesy ard consideration, allowing fire.

DR.. JOHN HALLS WILL.
Nothing Bequeathed to Charity by the
Late New York Divine.

NEW YORK, Oct. A.-The will of the
late DR.. John Hail. pastor of the Fifth-ave-
nue. Presbyterian Church, bequeaths nothing
to charity. A number of small beouests are
made to relatives, including 500 to George
Hosford, of Hudson City, Mich. the onlv
survivor of DR.. Hal's family on either side.
All his real estate in Kansas goes to his son
Robert William; all his real estate in Chi
cago 10 his son, Thomas c. The rest of the
estate is divided among the five children and
the widow.
The will discriminates against one of the
sons, Bolton Hail, who is a Socialist. and
has interested himself extensively in labor
matters. He is to receive only as a life
interest the income from d certain part of
the personal property after the death of
the testator's widow. After the death of
Mrs. John Hall, the executors are given
power TO advance TO him, at any time they
shall deem IL advisable and for his best in
terests. the whole or any part of his share.
The remainder goes to his widow or chill
dren at his death. Such conditions are not
made In regard to the other children or
heirs Bolton Hall is reputed TO be wealthy,
having married a rich woman.

Paris Newspapers Praise the Action
of French OmciaIs.
PARIS, Oct. 2.-The newspapers here to-
day warmly praise the exposition of the
French side OF the Fashoda question pre-
sented by the minister of foreign affairs,
NJ. Delcasse in the yellow book on the
subject, issued yesterday. The Figaro says:
IF the British government rejects Frances
moderate and just proposals it can only be
because the government of Great Britain
desires before everything else the humilia-
tiol of France"
The general tone of the French press is
reflected by the Eclair, which remarks:
IAN agreement regarding Fashoda can be
arrived at provided Great Britain does not
persist in asking for the immediate recall
of Major Marchand. But as to an outlet on
the Nile, we have an absolute right thereto
and will brook no refusal
The Steele, after urging peace, says:
France would hardly come off better In a
war with England than did Spain in the
war with the United States. France would
be better employed in developing her col
onies than in thwarting England"
The Autorite declares that France ought
never to have gone to Fashoda, adding:
1T was a stupid mistake, and now Eng
land calls on us to get out. Well, it is no
use talking, we shall have to get out, other
wise there will be war, which would be

The british Mind relieved.

LONDON, Oct. 25.--The Fashoda yellow
book issued by the French government hav-
ing left some slight misgivings in this coun-
try as to Lord Salisbury's firmness in deal
ing with the French ambassador, Baron De
Courcel, speedy dissipation of these fears
followed the publication of yesterdays blue
book. 1t is specially welcomed by the
London papers. which this morning ex-
press their satisfaction. notably at the view
of the Egyptian Regent. which is held TO
nullify entirely the French idea that Eng
land lacks the approval of the Egyptian
government.
The Times says: Lord Salisbury's YER
sion Of the interview with Baron De Courcel
is decidedly a dispatch to relieve the British
mind"
The Standard says: 1.-THE blue book re-
moves apprehensions regarding Lord Sails
bury's position. which It would have been
unsafe to leave uncorrected."
The Daily News thinks the blue book con-
firms the impression left by the yellow
book namely. that France is seeking a loop
hole
The Paris correspondent of the Daily
Chronicle claims TO have authority to say
that decision has already been taken by
the French government speedily to eyacuate

1t is impossible to obtain full list of the
killed, for the reason that some of the ne
grocs We're shot down in the woods and hur-
riedly buried by the whites where they fell.
A member of the posse said he helped bury
the negroes in trenches, but neither HIM
self nor any one in his crowd knew their
names, and they did not care enough about
them to inquire.
Governor McLaurin went to HarDerville
last night and appealed to the whites not
to molest the prisoners in the custody Of
the sheriff. The Governors talk had good
effect on the majority of those in the crowd,
though some of the hot-headed members
did not relish the Governors interference,
but he finally persuaded the crowd to per-
nit the sheriff to take the prisoners to Jail.
Sheriff Stephenson has placed additional
guards at the Forest jail to prevent the
lynching of the rioters now in custody. Two
negroes who are under arrest have made
full confessions.
The funeral of the murdered officer. Sib-
ley, occurred at Harperville to-day and was
attended by hundreds of people. 1t is re-
ported here that two of the murdered man s
brothers are on their way from his home in

bound for the scene of the race war. 1t is
feared that when they arrive a determined
and successful assault will be made on the
Forest Jail and all of the rioters confined
therein lynched.
Later-Sheriff Stephenson considered the
situation so serious tonight that he decided
to take the prisoners to Meridian for safe
keeping. A large posse was organized and
the negroes will be placed on the first train.

NEW YORK. Oct. 24,-A disaptch to the
World from Madrid says: photographic in

elected irrefutable proofs that the Spanish

unlimited leave on arriving. At Ferrol and

before the war. Besides, gunners and ma

From conversations with ministers and
leading politicians the World correspondent
can state that the notion of breaking off
negotiations over the Cuban debt is regard

Even as to the Philippines, by which vastly
greater store is set, it is taken for granted
here that Spain must in the long run yield
whatever the United States insists upon.
