Against Repaving Now.
The board of public works yesterday
decided to report adversely on the pre-
liminary order for the paving of Selby
avenue, from Summit to Victoria, with
asphalt The estimate of the city engi-
neer was that the Improvement would
cost $4S.710, or $3.75 per front foot, to the
property owners.
A large delegation of owners objected
to the paving, claiming that 1t was not
necessary, at least not this year. The
majority of those protesting were either
non-residents of the city and those who
owned property on the street and lived
in other parts Of the city Out of a total
CT $50 owners along the line of the i'm
provement ninety were opposed. and but
ten who favored the paving were present

THE IRISH
NATIONALISTS
TO CONFER
To Hold a Meeting in Dublin
on the Fourth of
April.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, March 25.-A special
cable to the World from Dublin says;
The most serious attempt to reunite
the Irish Nationalist members of Par
lament since the Parnell split will be
made in the City Hall here on April 4.
The conference to which all the Ma
tionalist members of Parliament of all
sections are invited. will assemble on
that day with the object of arriving at
a basis of unity and common action
for the future in and out of Parlia
ment. This conference is the result of
energetic measures taken by the Linn
erick corporation to ascertain the feel
ing of other public bodies throughout
Ireland having Nationalist majorities
on the subject of reunion and cessation
of internecine strife.
Dillon and majority of those who act
with him Immediately accepted the in
vitation to the conference. Healy
and several of his colleagues also sig
nified their intention to be present, but
John Redmond has not yet replied.
Redmond may refuse to have anything
to do with the Dublin conference.
1t is not certain. either. whether it
will be attended even by Healy and his
followers if Redmond remains away, as
he almost surely will.
Thus a malign fate seems to follow
every attempt to restore unity to the
Irish factions. The Irish party has no
real chairman at present, the election
having been deferred at Dillon's sug-
gestion until after the Dublin confer
ence. If that conference fails the possi-
bility of agreeing upon chairman will
be more remote than ever.

AMERICANS
IN DANGER
OF DEATH
Six Filibusters to Be Shot
by Central American
Authorities.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK. March 25.-The Wash
ington correspondent of the Herald
telegraphs: Besides Immediately dis
patching gunboat to make an inves-
tigation, Secretary Hay has cabled to
the American Charge d 'Affaires at
Guatemala City and the American
Consul at Tegucigalpa. directing them
to make protests to the Guatemalan
and Honduran governments against
the execution of six Americans who
were arrested few days ago and SEN
fenced to be shot
The action of the administration was
taken upon the representations. of Sen
ator Cockrell of Missouri, who had re-
ceived a telegram from former Cover
nor Stone setting forth the peril of the
men as told by their friends in Mis-
souri,, and of other advices In the pos
session of the State Department. Gov
ernor Stones telegram to Senator
Cockrell simply stated that six men
had been arrested, one of them being
c. w. Guthrey, and had been SEN
fenced to be shot.
When the Senator presented the dis
patch to Secretary Hay to-day he
urged that official to take all steps pos
sible to protect the Americans.
Secretary Hay at once wired the rep
resentatives of this Government in
Guatemala and Honduras, and then,
as it was the desire of the American
Charge d'Affaires at Guatemala City
and at the recommendation of Senator
Cockrell, he requested the Navy De-
partment to order the gunboat Machfas
to make an investigation. instructions
were at once sent by Secretary Long to
Commander L. G. Logan, commanding
the Machias, directing him to proceed
promptly to Livingstone, Guatemala.
and make strict investigation of all the
circumstances leading up to the ar
rests.
There seems to be some doubt as to
the point where the men are impris-
oned, but by the time the Machias ar
rives at Livingstone the American Con-
sular offices will have reported and the
Machias will be within a short run of
any port along the coast. Livingstone
lies on the Gulf of Amatique. not far
from the Honduran frontier. and a
short distance from Puerto Cortes.
where the Machias was temporarily
stationed some days ago while Com
mander Logan investigated the muir
der of an American named Frank
Pears.

Senator Mason Says Business
Men Have Had Enough Of

Special Dispatch to The Call.

Call Headquarters, Wellington Hotel,
Washington, March 25.
Senator Mason of Illinois said to-day:
'I find a pronounced change Of senti-
rnent among men with whom I talk.
Substantial business men, who three
months ago were red hot for expansion,
now say they have had enough of it.
I ask them how about the prestige of
their country, and they say they care
little about prestige derived from con-
quering men with arrows in their
hands, but that the taxes resulting
are what they fear"
"The idea of calling these Filipinos
rebels as some of our newspapers per-
sist In doing, is unjust. They have
never taken the oath of allegiance to
the United Sites. They wanted inde-
pendence from the start and have said
so. They will always hate US and Moth
ing is to be gained by conquering them.
Even If we do overcome them, they
will turn around and poison our peo-
pie.

geon generals Office that 81 per cent Of
our men there are afflicted with dis
ease. This is a bad beginning for our

BUENOS AYRES, March 25.-Wil
liam I. Buchanan. United States Minis
ter, has Informed the Argentina Gov
ernment concerning his award on the
Punta de Atacama question and giving
the territory in dispute to the Chilean
republic Public opinion generally is
little satisfied.
La Prensa says the ceded property is
of little area and that Argentina
never discussed its material value, but
stood for the unity Of her frontier and
the integrity of her territory. She
never acted as a merchant" it con-
tinues, but as a nation. Although
Chile will not get all she wanted, that
which she obtained is pure profit. The
award is a new triumph of her ira
ditionaI policy, which consists In claim
ing much with the object of getting
something"
La Nacion says that the award can
not satisfy the legitimate aspirations
of Argentina Mr.. Buchanan" it
adds, evidently obeyed political and
not purely legal reasons, nevertheless
Argentine respects the award cOHSIu-
ering the matter as definitely closed. ="
FL Diario believes that the territory
awarded to Argentina is not what she
hoped to obtain, but is what logically
could be expected in view of the OBJ
ject pursued by this form Of settle
ment.
Ell TEMPO says that apparently Mr..
Buchanan did not study the matter
with the seriousness which 1t required.
The same paper blames the Argentine
Minister of Foreign Affairs, and fin
ishes by saying. Argentina never OBJ
tanned any gain by arbitration
Ell Nacional severely blames Mr.. Bu-
chanan, saying that the award was
contrary to the treaty of 1881, and that
the American Minister has gone be-
yond his functions, giving to Chile ter
ritory situated on this side of the Cor
dilleras. Mr. Buchanan" it says,
sought to satisfy both parties and did
not prove to be an impartial judge
La Tribuna, President Roca's official
organ, does not comment on the award.

LONDON, March 25.-The represent
ative of the Associated Press has had
an interview with Mgr Brindle, the
new coadjutor of Cardinal Vaughan
who has just returned from Rome and
who had an audience with the Pope a
week ago. They conversed at length
on important topics, his Holiness dis
playing his usual acuteness and ami
mated and varied thought. Mgr. Brin-
die says the Pontiff's eyes are like
those of boy in brightness, and that
he certainly is not suffering from any
mental deterioration.
The Pope sat down at mass as usual
and intends to take part in the cele-
bration of April II.
A playful evasion of his doctors
wishes is the occasion of much amuse-
ment to the household and adds to the
view of the Vatican and of Cardinal
Rampolla, the Papal Secretary of State,
and others surrounding that Leo XIII
will live ten years longer.
When questioned on the subject of
the Pope's views on Americanism, Mgr
Brindle said his Holiness looks upon
the domestic differences in the church
In America as a sign of immense nerv-
Gus vitality, but as being in no way
alarming. He regards the future of
the church in America with hope in its
unity and as being a tower of strength

Execution During

LONDON. March 25-Another cpl
dernic Of murder seems to have broken
out Last week there were two mur-
ders and two executions. This week
there has been one execution and four
murders, the startling feature about
which is that in no case have the police
so far found any clew to the perpetra-
tor of the crimes.
Murder by post, which has been
creating a sensation in New York.
found an imitation here in pieces of
poisoned wedding cake being sent
through the post. Only one death re-
suited which is fortunate. because an
examination showed that the cake con-
tanned a very acute poison. No one
seems to know where the cake came
from, which leads the police to sus-
pect that the poison did not get into
the cake by misadventure, but that the
cake was made with the deliberate in
tent to cause death.
The verger Of church In Cambridge
avenue has been killed by poison and
his wife has disappeared, no one knows
where.
A woman has been found in Radcliffe
in bed with her ribs broken and head
crushed, and at Newmarket a police
man found gardener in most shock
ing condition. It is supposed that he
had disturbed housebreakers. who
killed him to prevent them from being
hunted down.
In another case, out of a spirit of re-
yenge, some one tried to poison a whole
family with arsenic in pepper, and the
family became very i'll and had a mar
row escape, but eventually recovered.
