ANDERSON. Ind, April 1O.-John Wer-

marshal, came near shooting several people
last night while he allowed two notorious
men whom he had chased for month to es-
cape. II. r. Conrad and II. Strangefield,
registering from Chicago and appearing
like travelling salesmen arrived yesterday
and put up at the Anderson Hotel. The
officer arrived on a later train and late last
night came upon them. They were writing
in the small lobby. He seemed to go wild
when he got his eyes on them and began
waving his revolvers around and shouting
He pointed his weapons at different people.
In the meantime the two men, who had not
lost their nerve, calmly walked in front of
the revolvers to the cloak ROOM where they
handed in their checks and got their over
coats. Then one unconcernedly walked out
of the front entrance and the other dis
appeared in the billiard room. They reached
an alley and made their escape. The two
men are, Werner claims, notorious thieves

PEKING, April 10.-The effect of Great
Britain's action at Wei-Hai-Wei is already
apparent here. The Chinese thoroughly
comprehend now the disinterestedness of
England, and her prestige is now higher
than ever. The Chinese regard Great
Britain's action as a step which has saved
the empire from ACKNOWLEDGMENT. No def
mite arrangements have yet been made re-
gardng the extent of territory to be occu-
pied in connection with Wei-Hai-Wei but
probably 1t will be the same district as is
held by Japan, ten miles inland and paral-
lei with the indentations of the coast. The
opening of Woo-Sung will possibly, in "a
slight degree, affect Shanghai, which, in Il
few months, will be connected by railway
with Woo-Sung. Numerous instances are
reported of a growing Chinese dstrust Of
Russia. This feeling is shown by the re-
cent totally unprecedented action of the
students, now in Picking for their exami-
nations for admission to their final degrees.
All are men of weight and standing. They
have memorialized the throne urging vigor-
Gus action against Russian aggression, and

of the enmity of Russia, while they recog-
nize the friendliness of England. Though
This action is not likely to have special

WASHINGTON, April 10-The week in
the Senate probably will be given entirely
to the Cuban question. The Presidents
message is counted on to arrive soon after
assembling ut noon tomorrow. 1t will be
referred promptly to the committee on for
eign relations and the present understand
ing is that no report will be made by the
committee before Tuesday. The report NAV.
in case of the development of radical differ
ences in the committee, be delayed to even
q later day.
There is decidedly a strong disposition on
the part of many of the senators, who are
not members of the committee to have the
Senate as a body take UP the subject If
shaping the committees report contempo-
raneously with the committee and it is not
improbable that a secret session of the
Senate may be held tomorrow with this
purpose in view. The purpose of this move
ment is, as has been frequently stated, to
secure as near an approach to harmony in
the Senate as possible, and it is believed
that this can be best accomplished by hav-
ing the Senate agree on the form of the
acCion.
The present tendency in the Senate is to
connne the congressional Illumination to a
declaration for armed intervention, leaving
the recognition of independence to come la
ter; and 1t now appears probable that the
foreign relations committee will report in
FAVOR of this course, though not without
some dissent. If the meeting of the COM
mittee, to be held before the receipt of the
message, should develop that such action
can be secured from the committee and in
a way to insure harmonious action on the
report in the Senate, then there probably
would be no occasion for discussion of the
form OF the resolution before taking up the
real question at issue. Senator's as a rule
show very slight inclination for other sub
Jects. and the chances are that if the Sen
ate does not adjourn soon after receiving
the message, the Cuban question will come
IN In some shape tomorrow.
Yet 1t Is barely possible that the whole
matter will be deferred until the foreign
committee can make its report.
resolution can scarcely get through the
Senate without arousng some discussion.
as there are senators who are opposed TO
any action at all, whether for Intervention
or independence. Senator White, OF Cali
fornia, is one of these, and he probably
will discuss any resolution reported There
are several senators who now say That they
will insist on the recognition of independ-
ence in any action taken, and that they
will be heard from in opposition TO any
measure that does not provide for this. II
opportunity appears the sundry civil appro-
pTiation bill will be finally disposed of, and
it is possible that the naval appropriation

EARLHAM CELEBRATES.
Now Claims the state Championship
i'm Debate.


Special to the indianapolis Journal.
RICHMOND, Ind, April 10.-No event
perhaps in the history of Earlham College
has ever given the students and faculty so
much pleasure and such cause for rejoicing
az the complete defeat administered to De
PAW University in the debate on Friday
last. When dispatches were received at the
college Friday night announcing the result
there was much enthusiasm displayed, and
by Saturday afternoon full arrangements
had been made for a celebration that
would be fitting to the occasion. The de-
batting team, was met al the depot by a large
crowd of students and citizens, accompanied
by a band and carriages. and was escorted
over the city and to the college west of the
city. There the demonstration was kept up
until evening, when it reached a climax in
a mass meeting in Lindley Hall. The at
tendance was very large. President j. j.
Mills presided and an orchestra furnished
music. Following the speech of the presid-
ing officer Prof. Cyrus w. Hodgin spoke
for the faculty. Prof f. p. Trueblood for
the debating department, superintendent T.
A. Mott. of the city schools, for them. DR.
Lutheran Church. for the ministry of the
city, Judge ID. w. Comstock, of the Appel
late bench. for the bar, the Hon. William
Dudley FOulke for the literary societies of
the city, and ]. Bennett Gordon, of the de-
batting team, responded for it. The speeches.
which were accompanied by great outbursts
of applause and college yels, were followed
by a reception and refreshments. Earlham
now claims the State championship in de-
bate and holds it in athletics.

England about the 10Th of this month, but
if there is to be a war he thinks that the

he is apprehensive of the existing influence
of war upon the mayors temper, and feels
that he ought to be here to quiet him with
a firm hand whenever his chronic DISPOSE

thinks of them gets the better of him. But
whether Mr.. Croker leaves US for few
months or not. his club has decided to honor
him in very fiattering manner on what
will be the eve of his departure in case he
goes. According to his personal organ, a

club on the evening of April 16, when a

PHILADELPHIA, April 10.-The British
steamship Hampstead has been chartered
to carry $500 tons of coal to the Cape Verde
islands, the present rendezvous of the Span
ish torpedo fiotilla, and the cargo will be
loaded either at this port or Norfolk. This
circumstance is unusual. and is looked on
as significant in view of the fact that in
shipping circles 1t cannot be recalled when
coal was ever shipped to any of the Canary
islands. Heretofore all coal shipments for
these islands have been supplied from Car
diff. Other shipments are to rapidly follow
the Hampstead's cargo in order that the
naval station will be well stocked before
the commencement of possible hostilities,
when such shipments would be stopped

turn to the country. In certain town six
teen men were seeking permission to go out
and begin work on their farms. After three
weeks delay this permission was granted
to one of the sixteen applicants, an Ameri-

tools and provisions, took eight men with
him and repaired to his old farm some ten
miles away and began to make charcoal.
He personally brought down his first load
for sale. Upon finishing this business he
started to return, but was stopped. No eX-
