TO REVIVE JURY COMMISSION.

C. B. No. 80, which revives the old jury
commission, was the principal subject
of consideration in the council Thurs
day and was literally amended and
then passed. Under it's provisions only
freeholders, h~ouseholders and owners
of mining claims are qualified to serve
as grand or petit jurors. Persons living
in polygamy, bigamists, habitual drunk
ards, professional gamblers, persons
who carry concealed weapons and those
who have been previously convicted of
crime by any court in the territory, are
debarred. The grand jury shall con-
sist of II members and the petit jury of
"a. 1t is necessary to secure the con-
sent of ~ members OF the grand jury
before indictments can be returned.

mission the district court shall appoint
il the open court four persons for the
work of selecting jurors, no two Of
whom shall be of the same political
faith and none of whom have served on

cient to warrant challenging the entire
array of petit jurors attending the trial
of any case, civil or criminal. Before
entering on their duties the jury com
missioners must take the oath of al
legiance to the United States and terri
tory of New Mexico. A list of 30 tales

Walter Jones, who has been in the
city for some days working on the legis.
lature for the creation of the new coun-
ty of Frisco, returned home Saturday.
Mr.. Jones does not think that it is pos.
sible to accomplish anything at this
session for the creation Of Patterson
county, but will endeavor to organize
for success in the next legislature. The
proposed county will have an area of
95 square miles, including the Frisco,
Alma, Mogollon, Mangus, Luna Valley
and Rio Quemado precincts in Socorro
county. There is about 81, 00O, 900
in taxable property in the region
and there are fully 1000
voters. The section embraced Is con-
stantIy improving in value and includes
agriculture, stock raising and mining.
At present the residents of the section
are paying about $4,000 in taxes, and
where Mr.. Jones lives they are forced to
travel a distance Of $50 miles to reach
Socorro, the county seat. People from
other sections of the proposed county
must travel over 400 miles and go
through three counties in order to reach
the county seat.

ENGLAND WILL NOT WITHDRAW.
Queen Victoria Appealed to, to Plead
for Dreyfus' Pardon.

London, Sept 13.-While the papers are
full of letters from individuals and sew
eral firms announcing their withdrawal
from the Paris Exposition and urging the
government to do likewise there is no in
tention upon the part of the British gov
ernment of taking any such step.
1t seems also unlikely that the present
agitation will result in any general with
drawal of British exhibits.
Max O'Ren Qaul BloueO has written a
letter 10 the Daily Chronicle saying that a
public expression will go against Dreyfus,
adding:
For Gods sake use your influence TO
Stop it. But for the universal sympathy
shown for Dreyfus, whom l personally
believe TO be innocent, in England and Ger
many, he would have been acquitted. 1t is
a terrible thing to say but l say Ii and am
not afraid of contradiction"
The Evening News is urging the for
nation of a British legion of honor con-
sist,ng of persons and firms who will have
nothing to do with the Paris Exhibition,
and publishes a list of over forty firms
and others, headed by Sir William Blake
Richmond r. A., who will not exhibit
The rumor which was current this aft
ernoon that the RothschIlds had received
word from Paris that Dreyfus had been
pdIuoHSu, was dpSOluteIy dSHlcu Dy tneIH.
Such action, they said, would be absolute
ly impossible until the council OF revision
passed on the appeal
Queen Victoria, who is al Baflator Scot
land, is said to be receiving a great num-
Der of kilograms and lie ters from her sub
jects at home and abroad begging her TO
plead with President Loubet fer Dreyfus'
pardon.
1t is known that the news of the Rennes
verdict which reached the court at Balmo-
raj Saturday night, greatly affected the
Queen, who had followed the proceedings
with attentive interest.

RIGHT TO MAKE THE ARRESTS.
Main Point Mt Issue i'm the Trial Of
John DeIegal.

Guyton, Ga, Sept. 13.-Effingham su
perior Court convened this morning at
Springfield with Judge p. e. Seabrook
presidingl The case of John Delegal,
charged with murder. was called for trial
Col. w. c. Charlton is the leading coun-
sci in the prosecution, and Judge II. ID.
d. Twiggs for the defense.
Several panels of jurors were called
some of them were struck and others went
off for being opposed to capital punish
ment. A jury was finally secured and the
case went to trial.
The witnesses were called and were
closely questioned and cross questioned
Mr.. Char.ton's examination of the Witness
es was to the point and quickly and thor
oughly done. Judge Twiggs dwelt at
length on the cross examination.
The evidence is all in and the attorneys
are submitting points OF law bearing on
the case.
The main issue, as 1t now appears, Is
that with reference to the authority of
the special deputies who attempted to ar
rest the Delegals the night the murder
was committed Mr.. Charlton claims they
we're officers of the law, and the defense
stoudy denies their legal right TO mako
arrests.
The arguments will no doubt be con-
cluded al late hour. and the judge will
give his charge to the jury.

PORE HAS A BAD COLD.
VIII Not Grant Separate Audiences
During Holy Year.

London. Sept. 13.-A special dispatch
from Rome says the Pope is suffering
from a cold, unaccompanled by fever,
but, as a precautionary measure, his au-
dlences have been temporarily suspended.
1t Is supposed that the decision Is due
to the advice of his physicians. one OF
the first effects win be thet the Pope
will not receive the French pilgrimage that
Is due here next week. In this way Car
dlnal Rampolla, papal secretary of state
will gain his desire that the Pope shall
not speak publicly on the DreyGus affair
An official announces that The Pope will
be unable TO grant separate audiences to
the immense number Of pilgrims expected
to come to Rome during The holy year,
but he Is anxious not to deprive them OF
the benefits of the apostolic benedictlon
he will follow the example of his prede-
cessors In similar circumstances and win
pronounce a solemn benedction In the
court OF Belvedere or elsewhere, as may
be convenient The arrangement which
comes into force forthwith causes varied

IRELAND URGES PRUDENCE.
ARCHBISHOP SAYS WE MAY BREED
MUCH ILL FEELING.

Had Great Sympathy for Dreyfus,
But Says We should Not Insult
France by Challenging Her Ma
tiOnaI Honor-American People
Who Are Easily Aroused in Cause
of Humanity, should Act in Mod
eratiOn-Speaks as an American.
ST. Paul, Sept. 1S.--Archbishop Ireland
to-day, asked for his opinion on the meet
ing to protest against the verdict of the
Rennes courtmartial, said:
II is my belief that public meetings
in America, such as 1t is proposed to hold
for the purpose of protesting against the
sentence of the Rennes courtmartial are
untimely, unfair to France and likely to
breed regrettabe i'll feeling between the
country and our own.
Il shah not deny that I have always
had in my heart deep sympathy for the
unfortunate officer who has been under
trial in Rennes; and that l had wished
and hoped that the sentence of the court
would have been one of acquittal But ii
is another question to face the verdict
of the court the moment that verdict has
been declared, with the assertion that it
is plainly against the truth, and that tho
court from which 1t issues is guilty of base
injustice and saerlegious perjury. And it
is still more so another question to lay
upon France the crime of the verdict, if
crime there be, and to throw at a whole
peop.e and their government insulting ep-
ithets. Let us wait.
This whole matter belongs to the in
ternal life and to the internal admins
tration of France. and International cour-
tesy as well as justice bids us talk about
ii very carefully and very slowly. France
is proud, sensitive nation. She will
deeply resent, as it Is surely her right
any uncalled for interference with her in
ternal administration and any lmprudent
challenging of her national honor
France has been our friend of ages
She was our friend when no other nation
befriended us. She is our friend to-day
She is a sister republic. We should pause
long and seriously before blaming, sus-
pecting or offending France.
II can well understand and explain the
present happenings in America The
American people are most easily reused to
sentiments of justice and humanity. Pru-
dence. however, is the queen of all vir-
tues and we should strive to make ii ours.
In what l say l speak as an American
for what believe the good of America. 1
make no plea for France, although, be-
cause | know France, l love her despite
her faults and hope for her despite her
perils"

DECISION EXPECTED TO-DAY.
JUDGE HART MAY DECIDE IN FA-
VOR OF THE CENTRAL.

Remark He Made Led TO That OpIn-
fon-WelI-KnOwn Cases Cited TO
Show That the Middle Georgia and
Atlantic should Not Belong to the
CentrnI-CIaim Made That the
short Route From MiIIedgeviIIe 10
Atlanta Is Destroyed.
Atlanta, Sept. 13.-yhe argument in the
case of the state against the Central clos
ed tonight at $50 o'clock and Judge Hart
announced that he would probably be
ready TO render his decision tomorrow
and asked the attorneys to submit their
briefs 10 him so he could so over them to-
night.
Attorney General Terrell submitted the
brief of his argument at the close, but Col
Lamar said he would have 10 have a few
hours in which to revise his
The closing arguments were made by
Col. Lawton and Attorney General Terrell
and both relied upon the Collins and Ham
ilton cases familiar to Savannahians and
South Georgians The former was where
the city of Savannah, with a number of
its prominent citizens. endeavored to ef-
feet a purchase of the Bainhridge branches
and the latter related to the branch from
Jesup to ST. Mary's. The sale, or combl-
nation. was not allowed by the court in
either of these cases and the only question
is whether they are analogous TO the pres
ent issue or not.
The Augusta Southern against the
Wrightsvile and Tennille was also cited
as a precedent. Judge Hart presided in
that case, as well as In this and the Su-
preme Court upheld his decision i'm favor
of the latter.
Attorney General Terrell emphasized the
fact that the geography of the Hamilton
and Collins cases We're identical with the
present case, and that the absorption of
the Middle Georgia and Atlantic destroyed
the JOG miles route from Miledgevile 60
Atlanta by that way, and the Georgia left
the Central route by Macon of 142 miles
practically in the open field at Milledgevllle
as against the Georgia with its l72 miles
route Just as the st. Mary's roads absorp-
ton would have resulted had not the courts
inteTfered.
Because of the location of the state sanl-
tarium and the central prison at Miledge-
vile, he argued that the old capital should
have the closest connection possible with
the new capital.
Judge Hart finally said that his decision
would come this week and it may be given
out tomorrow.
Col Lamar said he wanted to quote the
precise passages of authority upon which
the Central relied. and Judge Harts re-
joinder that II would save him a good deal
OF labor, rather created the impression that
his decision would be in favor of the Cen
traf Especially was this suggestive in
view of The statement by him just pre-
vious TO that, that he knew the case would
be appealed and he wished TO give the rea-
sons impelllng his decision.
