w lsnington. May 1.-THE cravest
apprehension Is felt lest the negotia-
tons of the Anglo-American Joint
High Commission appointed to frame
n treaty between the United States
and Canada may not result in ain
agreement. This feeling is so strong
that n report was circulated yesterday
that deliberations of the Commission
would not be continued. There is no
authority. however. for saying that
the Commission will not reassemble IN
Ottawa in August. according to the
plan arranged mt the time Of the adj
journment IN Washington last Febru-
airy.
Ii Is apparent hat the State Depart
ment expects no successful result from
this meeting. A good deal of irrita-
ton Is felt on account of the failure Of
the Dominion Government to agree 10
the establishment OF a modus vivendi
on the Alaskan boundary question.
and the feeling liz that If Canada Is
unwilling to consent to such an ar
~rangement, the fact does not augur
well for the success of the continued
negotiations for a permanent settle
ment OF the Alaskan dispute.
The State and Treasury Departments
have been a good deal stirred up, too.
on account Of the recent action of the
Ontario Provincial Legislature in pro-
hibiting the e~xportation of logs to the
United States, especially as the legis-
lation was made retroactive.
The Dominion Government had the
power to disapprove this legislation
within a certain limit of time. but did
not do it As the lumber dispute was,

Tells why She Killed mother

Pittsburg, May 12.-Bertha Bellstein
a young woman on trial for numbering
her mother, was placed on the witness
stand in her own defense. Her law
yers allege that she is insane, and the
young woman in telling the story of
the crime to the jury declared that she
had killed her mother because her
father, who had droDped dead some
time before was lonely. The idea that
her father was lonely, she said, came
TO her through two ~spiritualistic me-
diums. whom she visited in Chicago.

AOL|NEUX AGAIN HELD.
Appears Before Justice Travers
on Charge Of Having At
tempted to Kill Cornish.
A VERY LIVELY QUARREL
Reports that District Attorney Gardner
and His Assistant Osborne Are
at Outs Over the Case.
. VERY LIVELY QUARREL

Sensational Developments Expected and
Case Against Moiineux for the Alleged
Murder OF Mrs. Kate j. Adams Ii Not
Closed Gardner Did Not shout .sHuxxa"
why Is Not Stated.
New York, May 11.-Roland b. Moli-
neux, against whom the Grand Jury
failed to find a true bill for the murder
of Kate J.. Adams. appeared before
Presiding Justice William Trnvers
Jerome OF the Court Of Special SEES
sions, to answer to the charge of as
sault with intent TO kill Harry Cor
nish. Molineux. who was held in $40
600 bail on the assault charge by JUS
cell in the Tombs prison.
Major Gardiner has been looking
around to find some excuse which
would explain away the collapse of his
case. One story current about the
District Attorneys office was to the
effect that he was trying to free him
self of all responsibility III the matter.
With this end in view, it was declared,
he had placed the responsibility for the
failure of the case on Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Osborne. One rumor
had it that Osborne would be asked TO
resign.
This request, II was understood,
would be made he, ause in Major Gar
diners opinion, Os porne antagonized
the Grand Jury at the start and failed
to present the evidence as it should
have been presented.
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1899-05-13

Osborne knows what he is about"
said a friend of the Assistant District
Attorney, land he wants the evidence
to come out sc that the public may
judge for itself whether or not he is
at fault
District Attorney Gardiner said a
few days ago that should the Grand
Jury refuse to indict Molineux he
would throw up his hands and shout
"Huzza.," But at last reports not a sim
gle huzza had been heard emanating
from his private office.
sensational developments may be
expected said one of the Assistant
District Attorneys this morning, "and
the case against Molineux for the muir
der of Mrs. Adams Is not closed by any
means.
IF II appears in the examination to-
day or at any future time that we have
additional evidence against him all
that we have to do Is to apply to "A
Judge of the Court On General Sessions
or to a Justice of the Supreme Court
for an order for the resubmission of
the case to the Grand Jury. If we pre-
sent to the Judge or to the Justice adj
ditional evidence which, in his mind
would warrant the finding an indict-
hANnt- ht ihA Att hAt AtShDhtt''tVH
of the case
"We expect that this will happen. In
any event Molineux will undoubtedly
be accused Of the murder of Barnet.
We are not through with him. We are
convinced of his guilt. and we think
that sufficient legal evidence was pre-
scented to the Grand Jury to warrant
the finding of the Indictment"
The tide turned against Roland b.
Molineux again yesterday. Justice
Jerome, In the Court of Special
Sessions, refused to dismiss the charge
against him of assault upon Harry
Cornish. and Molincux was committed
again to the Tom5s without bail.
Molineux refused to sign the record
of his commitment. thereby depriving
himself of the right to be released on
bail.
1--WE will not apply for bail" Law
yer Weeks asserted, holly. because
we do not recognize the Courts right
TO hold this defendant"

Washington. MAY 12.-In n telegram
to the Navy Department from Tangier,
Rear Admiral iIowison confirms the
news officially received by the State
Department that the Sultan of Morocco
Ind paid the claims of American citi-
zen for indignities suffered by them
at the hands of the Morocco authori-
ties. As soon as Admiral Howison
was notified that the claims were salts
fed. the cruiser Chicago, his flagship,
started for Port Said. The Chicago's
presence was the cause OF the Sultan i
sudden decision to pay the indemnity.
Naval officers are very much pleased
at the success that attended the
Chicago's visit to Tangier. When the
State Department requested that she
be ordered there the Navy Department
found that in order to keep to her
round the-world schedule her stay
must be brief. and the State Depart
ment was Informed that the warship
could not remain longer than yester-
day.
The flagship reached Tangier on
Sunday and remained off the port
while the Consul General Of the United
States was politely expressing 10 the
Sultan's Minister of State the hope of
his Government that the claims would
be paid. and remarking on the friend
illness of the United States in sending
a warship to Tangier. The money
was paid in time to permit the Chicago
to leave in accordance with her SEIZED;
ule. If there had been any delay in
the negotiations the Chicago would
have been obliged to leave before the
money had been collected.

THE sHiPBulLDlNG TRUST
Lewis Nixon States His Disapprovai of
Such q Combination.

Such . Combination.
Elizabeth, May 12.-Lewis Nixon
the ship builder. was questioned rela-
tive to the published report that there
was to be a combination of a number
Of yards, among them the Bsph Iron
Works, Harlan & Hollingsworth of
Wilmington, Roach of Chester and
Nixon of Elizabeth. Mr.. Nixon said
that he had no knowledge of any such
combination of shipyards.
Such a combination would be a
trust, he said, and he did not believe
in a trust in the shipbuilding trade.
but much preferred the healthy stimu-
lus Of keen competition now that there
was a steady demand for ships. Mr..
Nixon added:
But | do hope that eventually there
will be in this country a combination
similar to that of some of the steel
companies. where the various contri-
butory interests are amalgamats d, and
in common with every other American
l should be glad to see IN establish
ment here that would be superior to
the Armstrong Works at Elswick.
England. A combination including a
steel plant. iron mills. gun and gun
carriage works. where. under II man
agement. a complete ship could be
turned out. from the ore in the ground
to the shot loaded in the mounted gun
such a combination. | say, would en-
able the American people to obtain
some of the rich prizes now going to
the foreign builders. A combination
of competing shipbuilders, ! think,
however. would be very unwise."
