TO ABRoGATE THE TREATY.
Report That England Will Open
Negotiations.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-It is posi-
lively asserted in well-informed
quarters that there will be no fric-
ton over the abrogation of the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty. 1t is expect
ed that ambassador Pauncefote will
shortly receive orders from London
to open negotiations with Secretary
Hay. 1t is understood that Great
Britain will ask for some concession
fro m the United States in return. A
story in circulation here is to the
effect that Henry White brought
the desire of the Americans to the
notice of Lord Salisbury.

A VICTIM OF FoRaERs
An English Globe-Trotter swindled
by a Clever Gang at Honolulu

j. Morris of York, England, who
arrived from Honolulu on the Mari
posa and is now at the Occidental
Hotel, tells story of the clever
work of a gang OF forgers he met at
Honolulu, which shows how cleverly
these gentlemen work.
Mr.. Morris and his niece, Miss
Barnard, have been making a tour
of the world and stopped at Homo
lulu to witness the annexation care
monies. Miss Bernard is a euchre
enthusiast and while in the islands
her uncle got up euchre party at
the Royal Hotel, to which he invited
three gentlemen who were stopping
at that house. At the beginning Of
the game each memberof the party
inscribed their name on the top of a
card and when the game was finish
ed the cards were left lying on the
table. The card bearing Mr.. Morris
name was gethered in by one of the
party and a short time afterward he
missed his check-book. 1t was final
ly recovered by the Hawaiian police
and Mr.. Morris at once noticed that
several checks had been torn out
He at once came to this country and
cabled his bankers in England to
stop payment on the checks.
The gang managed to work about
$50 worth of the forged checks in
Honolulu, as Mr.. Morris signature
was easily obtained from the card
left behind at the euchre party :

THE CURTAIN DROPS

When the chimes from the church
towers and the firecrackers from the
Christian households announced at
midnight on Saturday that a new
Sovereign had assumed the sceptre
OF Time, and that new chapter in
the history Of the world and in the
lives of men had been opened, old
1898, emaciated through hard aud
terrible experiences during his reign
shook his head, folded his cloak
around his sickly form and said to
his happy and sanguine successor,
"Boy, you will make worse mess of
it than did," and then he handed
over to the skid" the book of record
and disappeared.

Little 1899 read some history,
which it is hoped will never be re-
peated and placed on record by
Father Time. The records told
about President Of the United
States making the biggest political
bluff ever known in history to save
his political party by pluuging his
country into war to gain a tempor-
airy popularity by sacrificing thou
sands of good mon in fighting fifth
rate power in the name of "human-
ity." That kind of humanity"
which incidentally necessitated the
conquest of everything in sight, and
the robbery even OF the land of a
peaceful and friendly nation. The
record showed that while, in the
name of humanity, Spanish sailors
were sent to the bottom of the sea
for the alleged benefit of worthless
Cubans and Filipinos, the civilized
Americans at home hanged and shot
their fellow citizens who, through
no fault of their own, had differ
emily colored skin over their face
and heart. The expansion policy
which will eventually ruin the
Great Republic of America, nearly
turned the golden locks of youthful
1899 grey, while snigger was heard
from the tomb of 1898.

In Africa the British have again
covered themselves with glory and
by missionary work added another
link to the political chain, which
demands the extinction of the dark
races. The natives who we're not
killed in the war will have chance
to be educated in the Gordon Insti-
tute at Khartoum. 1t is for 1899 to
find out what fate is to be preferred.
The murder OF the Empress of
Austria, an inoffensive, sorrowing
old woman, by an anarchist, made
1898 very sad, and to the new year
is left the task 10 exterminate the
scoundrels who make war on $50
ciety" and the laws that must be up
held to keep the world a-going.
1889" will have to find Andree,
or, at least, the North Pole, and then
tell us what to do with it after it Is
found; 1899 will have TO record the
row which necessarily will take
place in Spain, and put down all
about Dreyius and Fashoda, and
the troubles in Italy, Crete and
Norway. The young recorder will
see the Norwegian flag, pure and
simple, fly over the many ships
which hail from he land of the an
cient and noble race OF Vikings.

Des Moines, Dec. w. II. Crosby
was discharged from custody yestcrday,
the jury in his case returning a ver-
dict of not guilty. Crosby has been in
the county Jail for the past five weeks,
awaiting trial on the charge of lewd-
ness during the Mitchellville riot, be-
ing unable to secure bonds for his re-
lease.
The testimony of the Mitchellville
girls in the trial was not nearly SO em-
phatic as their Testimony before the
grand jury and the prosecution fell
through. The girls seemed to enjoy
the case, however, and chatted :nerrily
on the benches, after they had testified.
The references TO Marde Lucas ard
her alleged action brought only an
amused smile from that girl. Superin-
tendent Miller took his charges back
to the industrial school and the matter
was ended.

JURY SAYS ,T,s MURDER.
Coroners Jury Fixes the Blame for
Juli,. Rarber'S Death.

A blow struck in ehe heat of passion
has made murderer of one man who
will undoubtedly be made to suffer for
his crime. The coroner's jury enipan-
eled yesterday to inquire into the death
of Julia Barber, who died Monday night
from the effects of II blow. returned II
verdict last evening, in which they
found ''rhat the said Julia Lee Bar
ber came to her death from a blow or
blows struck by one Fred Gardner on
or abour the night of Nov. 2s, $780, No
evidence was adduced that showed pre-
meditation, but the fact that the deed
was done in the heat OF passion will
not mitigate the punishment as it
would had the victim been a man. In
the light of the evidence taken before
the coroner's jury Gardner could not
be convicted of crime greater than
that of murder in the second degree,
for which the maximum punishment is
imprisonment for life and the mini
mum not less than ten years imprison-
ment. Sheriff SHUTS will probably 60
to Jefferson City to get the requisition
papers honored today. The cass
against Gardner will be given to the
grand jury, which will convene Jan. 9,
1900.
