PROMOTER HooLEY.
The Examination in Bankruptcy
Proceedings Resumed.

LONDON. Nov. 14.-The examination
in bankruptcy proceedings of Ernest
Terah Hooley, the company promoter,
was resumed to-day.
Sir William Marriott took the stand
and declared that Mr.. Hooley'S state
ment that he had paid the witness
Fl 900 for introducing him (Hooley) to
the Carlton Club was a pure inven-
ton and an abominable lie." Sir Will
lam added that he knew nothing at the
time about Hooley's alleged donation of
10000 to the Conservative party
funds, through the Marquis of Aber-
gavenny, though Mr.. Hooley told him
afterward that he had given the Mar
quis f10,000 for the fighting funds of
the party, which Sir William Marriott
explained had nothing to do with the
Carlton Club. The witness also said
he had helped Mr.. Hooley in political
and financial matters, but had always
declined remuneration for his services
Later Sir William said Mr.. Hooley
told him in December, 1896, that he
was engaged with an American syndi-
cate which was going to raise an enor-
nous loan for Cuba, and said he, the
witness, had been appointed counsel
to the company's commission, which
was to visit Cuba, and that his fee was
to be 10000, in view of which Mr..
Hooley paid him f1,000 on account
On cross-examination Sir William
admitted that he had received check
for $4,000 from Mr.. Hooley, which he
handed representatives of the Conser-
vative party. Mr.. Hooley believed
this would secure him a baronetcy at
the Jubilee, but he was informed he
could not have it and the check was
returned to him.
During Sir William Marriott's ex-
animation Mr.. Hooley was a scene, and
threatened to pitch the witness out Of
the box While Sir George Lewis was
cross examining Sir William, the wit
ness several times got angry, and re-
fused to answer questions put to him.
Mr. Hooley on cross examination
fatty contradicted the evidence of Sir
William Marriott. He reiterated his
statement that he had promised and
had paid to Sir William f1,O0O for an
introduction to the Carlton Club. Sir
William, Mr. Hooley added, told him
that the did "all the dirty work" for
the Conservative party. Sir William
suggested the giving of $4,000 by Mr.
Hooley for a baronetcy, and he was to
get 10000 if Mr.. Hooley was made a
baronet.

run the Postoffice. She is his assist
ant. Mr.. Henderson was run away
from the bedside of his mother, and
was not permitted to attend her family

White niggers" appeared to be the
least of the insulting names with which
the crowds greeted them at every step.
Once on the train they were told in
forcible language that if ever again
they set foot in Wilmington they
would be shot on sight. When their
train arrived at Newburne it was
boarded, they say, by former Mayor
Ellis and a lawyer named Guyon, and
they were informed that it would not
be safe for them to remain there any
length of time, and SO they took the
first boat to Norfolk. Brown, a negro
from Wilmington, who did not leave
at the same time with them, they had
since heard was set upon by crowd
and terribly beaten in the city Post
office. AT other points they were
warned not to stop.
The three men are at present stay
ing at a small hotel on Pennsylvania
avenue, but what they will do or where
they will go from here is a serious
question with them. They say they will
not return to their homes in Whining
ton, as they feel certain the threats
of the mob will be carried out and they
would be shot. They plead not guilty
to every charge made against them.
and insist that they were run out of
the State for the single reason that
they were Republicans and refused at
the bidding of an irresponsible mob
to surrender their right of franchise.

NEVADA ELECTION.
Reinhold Sad1er Probably Elected
Governor.

CARSON (Nev.), Nov. 14.-Reinhold
Sadler will probably be the next Gov
ernor of Nevada. The vote between
the Republican nominee, William Me-
MILAN, and the choice of the silver
party has been very close, with Nc
MILAN in the lead, but returns from
outlying districts have placed Sadler
ahead by seventeen votes. There are
some sixty votes to hear from, but the
result cannot be changed.
Ballots were forwarded to the First
Nevada Cavalry, now aboard a trans
port on the way to Manila, and if this
vote is declared valid it may determine
the election of Governor.
The vote for Controller and Attorney
General has also been close, but Sam
Davis and w. d. Jones, silver nominees
for the respective offices, are now in
the lead and cannot be overtaken. Sen
ator Stewart has more than enough
votes in the Legislature to elect him.

Which Ex-MInlsier Barrett Is Asked to
Present to This Government.
While It is Designated an Appeal
to President Mckinley and the
American People, It 10 Said to
Be Really in the Nature of an
Arrangement of American Acc
tion in the Philippines.

HONGKONG, Nov. 1.-THE Filipino
Junta, representatives of General Agui-
naldo and the Filipino Government
here, have drawn up what they desig-
nate IAN appeal to President McKin-
ley and the American people," but what
is really rather in the nature of an ar
raignment of American actions in the
Philippines.
John Barrett, formerly United States
Minister to Siam, was asked by the
Junta to present the memorial to the
United States Government and people,
Mr.. Barrett replied that while he could
have no official influence regarding the
status of the matter, he was satisfied
that document which represented the
sentiments of the Fdlipinos would re-
ceive at the hands of Americans all the
consideration it merited.
After asserting that Filipinos uni
formly acted upon the advice of the
Americans. and were informally recog-
nized by them until Manila was cap
tured, the memorial goes on to say:
1--WE can only attribute this sudden
change to orders from Washington to
American officials at Manila to avoid
compromising the American Govern
ment by a recognition of the Filipinos
or their Government. The Americans
are carrying out these instructions lit
orally, losing sight of the foUner friend
ly intercourse and assistance, and OF
the assurances the American officials
gave Aguinaldo, which he communi-
Gated to his followers.
The memorial concludes thus: I'VE
await the arbitrament of the Peace
Commission with even greater inter-
est than the Americans. because 1T con-
Germs our land, our happiness and our
freedom. In the meantime we shall
pray for peace and a perfect UNDER
standing with the Americans"

ANDERSEN MUST HANG.
His Appeal to the United States Su-
preme Court Denied.

WASHINGTON, Nov 14.-The Unit
ed States Supreme Court to-day af-
firmed the judgment of the lower court,
and denied a writ of habeas corpus TO
Joseph N Andersen, convicted and sem
fenced to be hanged after a trial in
Norfolk Va, for the murder of the
mate of the Olive Pecker.
The Andersen case has attracted
widespread attention, being, sea trag-
edy of singular romance and atrocity.
The schooner Olive Pecker sailed from
Boston laden with lumber for a point
on the river Platte, Brazil. When $50
miles off the coast of Brazil, Andersen,
a Swede, had an alteration with the
Captain. When the latter retired to
the cabin Andersen followed and shot
the Captain dead. He then armed him.
self heavily and went on deck, where.
mounted on the forecastle, he terrorized
all on board. The mate, who was aloft,
was called down, ard, while pleading
for his life, was sho four times.
Then the crew wer- ordered to throw
the dying mate overheard, and on pro-
testing that he was not dead, were as
sured that he was dead enough" This
done, the crew were marched below at
the point of pistol and ordered to
throw the Captain overheard. Then
Andersen directed that oil be thrown
on the lumber after which the oil soak
ed ship was set afire and the murderous
crew took to the boats.
Andersen was apprehended at Bahia.
Brazil, and sent north on the United
States gunboat Lancaster. He was
tried and convicted in the United States
Court at Norfolk, Va, and a stubborn
fight was made up to the Supreme
Court the conviction being confirmed.
The last move was in the present ap-
plication for a writ of habeas corpus,
on the ground that Andersen's consti-
tutional rights were invaded when the
lower court assigned him counsel in
stead of giving him counsel of his own
choice.
Chief Justice Fuller, in announcing
the courts decision, said the records
of the case showed that no fundamental
rights had been denied Andersen, but
that he had been represented from
first to last by able counsel. The time
when counsel was not present was at a,
preliminary hearing of Andersen, but
this was not used in the subsequent
trial. The decision Of the lower court
was affirmed
Chief Justice Fuller announced that
the court would take recess until the
2Sth inst, at which time it WAS hoped
the rules in bankruptcy procedure
would be announced.

WAR REVENUE TAX.
WILL NOT BE ABOLISHED AT
SHORT SESSION.
The Act Will Continue in Force
and Practically Unchanged for
at Least a Year Longer.

WASHINGTON, Nov 14-The
Washington Post will say tomorrow
that the war tax will not be abolished
at the coming short session of Congress
and that there will be no revision of the
tariff whatever. 1t bases this announce
ment upon the positive statement made
to-day by Chairman Dingley of the
Ways and Means Committee, who, in
an interview, says:
The Government will need for some
time all the revenue produced by the
war taxes. During the month of Octo-
Der the war expenditures exceeded the
war revenue by some S14 900 900, and
this month they will be S10,0O0,000 in
excess. This being the case, there will
be no changes at least this fiscal year.
The War Revenue Act will continue in
force and unchanged, except perhaps in
a few minor administrative features,
for at least year longer.
TT is hardly necessary to add that
there will be no revision of the tariff,
although I have seen some statements
to the effect that such a revision is
contemplated.
THE session is limited to three
months, and that short period will be
mainly occupied in passing the appro
priation bills, in enacting new laws for
the regular army, and in deciding upon
the legislation necessary for the gov
ernment of Hawaii In addition to
these important matters, the usual
number of routine matters will arise.
From the present outlook, the session
will be we'll under way before the treaty
OF peace with Spain will be laid before
the Senate, and the ratification of that
document may not be accomplished
long before the 4th of March arrives"
"Will that necessitate an extra ses-
sion?"
TT is. of course" said Mr. Dingley,
Impossible to know what will arise be-
tween the 1st of December and the 4th
of next March, but SO far as the pres
ent outlook can form a basis for judg
ment. T should say that no extra ses-
sion will be necessary or desirable, un-
less some new question should arise. In
the first place, we shall not know until
the treaty of peace has been ratified
what new possessions We are to have,
and what legislation is necessary for
them, and even then we will be in no
position to act intelligently. I think
that the military administration ought
to be continued for at least a year lon
ger Military administration means the
maintenance of order, the establishment
of sanitary regulations, the giving of
assistance to those who may need it.
II will bring order out of chaos and af-
ford US time to. determine the wisest
legislation Time always enlightens.
and certainly when Congress meets at
its regular session in December of next
year we will be much better equipped to
consider the proper method of dealing
with our new possessions.
For my part" added Mr.. Dingley, Il
hope that the territory to be added will
be no longer than is absolutely neces-
sary. I realize that in some cases it
may be easier to hold than it will be
to LET go. but at the same time I hope
that the treaty when it is presented to
the Senate, will provide for the acquisi-
ton of a minimum amount of terri
tory"
