NO AGREEMENT YET
By the Three Powers in Regard to
Samoa.

Berlin, April SIN the negotiations
by the German minister of foreign af-
fairs Gen. B. Won BulOw, the ambassa-
dor Andrew D. White and the British
ambassador Sir Frank c. Lacelles, the
representative of Great Britain still
favors the majority rule within the
proposed Samoan investigation COM
mission, Germany wants unanimity ac-
cording to the Berlin act and the Uni
ted States acquiesces in the latter Mr..
White said: Il believe England will
yield to unanimity. The delay in a de-
cision is probably due to Lord Sails
bury's absence. AS a compromise I Of
fered that each power appoint three
commissioners with seven to decide. But
this met with small favor. Germany
thinks that it will not be difficult to Sc
cure unanimity within the commission
if the commissioners are instructed to
be conciliatory.
Official dispatches from Washington
say the American representa- tiVeS at
Samoa have been instructed to proceed
cautiously and return to the status quo.
All other reports such as that the Uni
ted States and Great Britain will hold
Germany responsible for the deaths of
Blue Jackets during the recent fights,
are baseleSS.''

SOLDIER TROUBLE.
Member of the 23rd Kansas Arrested
For Highway Robbery.

Deputy United States Marshal E. A.
Prescott went over to Leavenworth this
afternoon and arrested a colored SOL
der of the Twenty third Kansas for
highway robbery. The soldiers name is
Jackson but his first name is unknown
to the authorities, or to Henry c. Gar
rison, the man swearing to the COM
plant, and who alleges that he was
robbed.
1t is charged that Jackson held up
Garrison a few nights ago on the FIT.
Leavenworth reservation and took $40
in bills and some small articles from
him. AS the crime was committed on
government reservation it comes under
the United States laws.
Jackson is now under arrest in the
guard house of the Twenty-third regi-
ment, awaiting the arrival of the federal
official. He will have his hearing before
the United States commissioner at
LeavenWorth on Friday.
There are seven men by the name of
Jackson in the Twenty-third Kansas
regiment, and five of them are from
topeka.

KANSAS is ALL RIGHT.
[From the Chicago Tribune.l


The old query, What is the matter
with Kansas?'' has been answered a
good many times recently. Colonel
Funston and the Twentieth Kansas reg
iIaent were the first American soldiers
to enter Malolos. the books of the Rev.
Mr.. Charles NJ. Sheldon, of Topeka, are
creating the greatest literary sensat ion
in London since Dickens, and now comes
w. J. ArkelI, of Judge, to say that
Kansas contributors send in more funny
jokes than those of any other state. The
only cloud on the Kansas horizon is the
announcement that Jerry Simpson is
about to establish a weekly paper, in
which the story of his political exper-
fences is to be told in serial form
lin Kansas we think that Jerry Simp-
son is as much a kansas institution"
as anything else. One thing we pride
ourselves on, in Kansas, is that party
lines do not restrain wit and brains. Our
Populists are just as smart as our Re-
publicans and our Democrats and Pro-
hibitionists as our Populists; and alto
gether-Populists, Republicans, Demo-
Gratis and Prohibitionists-we are the
brainiest people in the world. The rea-
son is because we are nearly all Ameri-
cans with an American ancestry.l

PRIvATEs CONE FIRST
In the Distribution of the So, 100000
to the Cubans.

Havana, April 5.-The dissolution of
the Cuban assembly, announced in these
dispatches last night, does not cause
any particular comment among Cubans
or Americans here, such a step having
been predicted two weeks ago. The
American military authorities while
pleased that an obstacle to the disposal
of the Cuban army has been removed,
had been prepared to distribute the So
900 900 without the aid of the assembly'S
rolls by causing to be drawn up dupli-
cate rolls. In this work the provisional
governors were cooperating with the
Cuban commanders in their provinces.
In addition, the assembly's rolls are be-
ing verified and corrected by independ
ent inquiries, a task that may last an
other month. In spite of this, the dis
tribution of money to the Cuban soldiers
will possibly begin in the vicinity of
Havana within a fortnight. The gen
eral rules controlling the distribution
are to exclude all men who have en-
listed since July II. 1898, and to ex-
clude former soldiers now holding gov
eminent positions or belonging to the
rural guards, first paying each private
and commissioned officer 500. Then
if, as expected, a balance remains, 500
will be paid to each officer.

and Himself

son, his wife and their S,months-old baby
jackson and his wife each had a pistol
shot in the head, while the child was shot

that Jackson first shot his wife and child
and then himself The deed was done
during the night. The only other occu-
pant of the house was Mrs. E. E. Rich
ardson, Jackson's grandmother, who was
not awakened by the shots.
Jackson was a young business man of
high standing and married jamie Goodwin
leading society girl, q little over two
years ago. Until recently he was cashier

is supposed he brooded over the loss of
his position and killed his family and him
self in a fit of insanity.

A DISASTROUS APPEAL.
Second Degree Murder Made First
Degree on a New Trial

Auburn, Neb., April 5.-The jury in
the case of John rgabright, brought in
q verdict of murder in the first degree.
Argabright was formerly a policeman
in South Omaha. His wife left him in
1884 and went to the home of her father,
William S. Neville, of Auburn. Arga-
bright followed and met his wife and
her father at an entertainment. A quar-
rel ensued and Argabright killed his
father-in-law. His first trial resulted
in a verdict of guilty of murder in the
second degree and he was sentenced to
ten years Imprisonment. He appealed
and was granted a new trial which re-
suited in a conviction of murder in the
first degree. He was granted a new
trial and this has just resulted in sec
ond verdict of murder in the first de-
gree.
