SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. Am appli-
cation for a writ of habeas corpus for
w H Armstrong, of Chicago, charged
with attempting to influence a juror, was
brought up in the supreme court today
Armstrong; attorneys base their argu-
ment for his release on the plea that
the offense with which he is charged
is not felony under the laws of Illinois.
They also claimed that the record did
not show that the lieutenant governor OF
Illinois had authority to make the de-
mand for Armstrong; extradition, in the
absence Of the governor of the state
The prosecution submitted an affidavit
from Gov. Tanner to the effect that In
his absence from the state, the HeuA

else the functions of his office. The Of.
fdavit was not admitted, on the ground
of immateriality.

been the feature of this marke,. and it
hardly seems as if even yet the desire

the stock is looked for. The large short
interest in Toledo Coal & Iron has help
ed maintain this stock throughout the
day. The raid on the coal stocks was
accompanied with additional reports of
an impending strike, and, although these
reports are much exaggerated, at the
same time such an outcome of the differ
ences between employees and owners is
not entirely improbable. The board of
directors of the American Smelling com

PUERTO PLATA, SAN DOMINGO, July
D.-The situation is critical. An outbreak

seize the body of President Heureaux by
the assassins, Ramon Caceres, Manuel

Moca with their followers. The burial of
PRESIDENT Heureaux was conducted with
fitting honors.
Governor Pepin has assembled troops in
Moca, and the governor of La Vega Real

shall was attempting to arrest him when
he was shot through the lungs and died in
few minutes. While dying he fired the
