MEXICO REFUSES
To Grant Extradition Papers for John
 Keeton, the Train Robber

Chicago, H., July 24-A special to the Chronicle from Austin, Texas, says: "The Mexican government has refused to grant the application for extradition of John Keeton, in jail at Jaurez, Mexico, on a charge of complicity in the robbery of Texas and Pacific passenger train and the killing of fireman over year ago, the ground for the refusal being that the new extradition treaty contains no authority for the extradition of an accomplice in crime. Governor Savers today forwarded to the United States extradtion agent at Fl Paso a new application for the extradition of the fugitive. It is based on an indictment against the prisoner for sheep stealing in Sutton county, Texas. If this last appl1- cation Is granted Keeton will be turned over to the Coleman county authorities to answer to the train robbery and murder charges.

WHAT IS NEEDED
 IN PHILIPPINES
General Anderson Says That Otis Equals the Czar
 of Russia.

Chicago, July 24-'@The greatest states ernor-general of the Philippine islands and the military authorities subordnated to him."
 Brigadier General Thomas M. Anderson commanding the Department of the Lakes, today outlined in the foregoing words what he believed to be the best course to pursue in the far east. General Anderson ex- pressed himself as follows when asked his opinion of the results likely to follow the installation of the new secretary of war;
 "The greatest exigency with which we have to deal is in the Philippines, and to 1t we should bring the talent we have. The governor-general should be first of all a statesman. He should have the dictation of the course to be pursued and the mili- tary representative should carry the or- but preferably in his own way.
 '.As it is, General Otis is both civil and military governor in the islands, exercising both of these functions He is the most absolute and arbitrary ruler on earth, the Czar of Russia not excepted. The military power should, in my opinion be merely a means of carrying out the policy of the civil administration. Understand that don't mean this a criticism of General Otis, for he is vested with this dual power and must do the best he can. I believe that the task which he is trying to perform is too great for any one man, no matter how capable he may be-"

DAY BROUGHT
 NO IMPROVEMENT
Turbulence Held in Check By the Police and
 Militia.

Cleveland, O., July A.-The day has failed to bring any relief to the strike situation, which is regarded as serious. The state beard of arbitration has practically aban- doned its efforts to concliate the strikers and their former employers The resent ment of the striking conductors and motor- men and the more turbulent sirht of their sympathizers are held in check to a de- gree by the presence of the police and the militia, memSers of which ride in the cars or are held in readiness at the barns and terminals. Small riots occurred during the without serious results. The death of Henry Cornwich, slain by a bullet fired by Ralph P. Hawley, conductor on the Broadway line, is the first fatality of the strike.
 The police believe they have a clew to the man who placed nitro glycerine which last night blew up an Euclide avenue car and injured four passengers They have found the buggy in which he made his es- cape and have description of the man who hired it.
 A repetition of the wrecking of a Euclide avenue car was this evening attempted by the strikers or their sympathizers in Brook lyn, suburb of Cleveland. An explosion took place under the car but failed to in- jure it materially. No one was hurt. With the exception of the Mayfeld suburban, all the lines of the Big Consolidated have teen in operation today. althonsh their move- ments were necessarily hampered some- what.
