a SLIGHT RITCH

Between Governor Atkinson and
Judge Doolittle in Regard to the
Case of Elias Hatfield.
Special Dispatch to The Entelllgencer
CHARLESTON. w. Va. Nov. 26.-
A slight hitch has arisen between Gov
ernor Atkinson and Judge E. s. Doo-
little, OF the eighth judicial circult,over
the order issued several days ago by
the governor granting Elias Hatfield an
extension of thirty days, in order to
give the stenographer who took down
the evidence time to complete the re-
cord so that Hatfeld's attorneys might
appeal to the supreme court for new
trial.
To-day the governor was informed
that Acting Sheriff Peck. Of Mlngo, had
left with Hatfield for the penItentIary
by order Of Judge DoolIttle.
The governor stated tonight that he
was confident Warden Hawk would re-
fuse to accept the prisoner. He said he
had no criticism to make on judge Doo-
Titles action.
Hatfield was convicted in the Mngo
circuit court of the murder of DOC"
Ellis, and sentenced to twelve years in
the penitentlary.

Since returning from abroad the Ger-

that Of "the open door" and Count
Chasslnl. the Russian ambassador, has
stated the same policy as to the Rus
sian port Of Talien-Wan. The British
position favorable to open ports Is wen
known, and since Lord Pauncefote's
return occasion has been taken to re-
iterate It. Beyond this. however, there
has been nothing from any OF the for
etgn Representatives concerning the fu-
ture Of China, and without exception.
the representatives of powers having
interests in China state positively that
no instructions have been received as to
treating with reference to China. This
applies also to the Japanese minister
and the French charge d'anaires, who,
while they have made inquiries Of the
state department as to the basis for
current reports. have had no instruc-
tlons to act respecting China.
