Castellane Is a Fool.

New York, July 11.--A dispatch to
thee World from Paris says: Count
Castellane. who married Anna Gould
of New York. has, not challenged the
Prince of Monaco to a, duel as was le-
ported by a New York newspaper and
If he expected a challenge from the
prince he has been disappointed so far.
The facts in the case are these: The
ruler of Monte Carlo sent an open let
ter To Nine. Dreyfus expressing SYM
pathy for her and inviting her husband
to -recuperate at a castle which the
Prince of Monaco owns in French terril
tory, "when the holy work of justice Is
accomplished and Dreyfus is liberated. =
The next day Count Castellane sent to
the newspapers a sensational answer
to that letter. Castellane, being gen.
orally held in contempt, the newspa-
pers are extra citing great fun and abus-
ing him rather severely. The French
public is inquiring: HAS our army
no better champion?' 1t is pointed out
that while Castellane has succeeded in
evading the most Of his military ser
vice, the Prince of Monaco, although a
foreigner. enlisted as a private and
served France through the Franco
Prussian war. 1t is not believed here
that the prince would condesc nd to
duel with such ridiculous per-
son.

Established.

Washington, July 1.-THE secretary

of France an answer to the latter's re
cent letter submitting the claim of Miss
Ivan Favre for 10000 damages, attri-
buted to- the capture of the French
was passenger, by the cruiser New
Orleans during the blockade of San
Juan. The secretary reviews the facts
in much detail and states the conclus-
ion that the government is not liable
on this claim. The answer is likely to
establish a precedent on large num-
Der of similar claims.
The secretary says the French steam
er was first observed by the cruiser
Yosemite on July S, and that an officer
OF the Yosemite went on board and
noted in the log of the French Vessel
that blockade of San Juan was in
progress. Miss Favre subsequently

the passengers We're released by court
order and turned over ITO the French
that she had suffered from an attack
of fever while at Charleston and the
damages We're for this.
From the facts cited the Secretary
states that the United States naval au-
thorities could not be charged with any
negligence in the circumstances attend

A DECISION FOR DIXON
Defeated White in a Twenty
Round Bout.
HE LED THE FIGHTING
His Let Hand Work Was Marvellous
Bothered the Eye to Follow 1t.
Quite Bunch of Money
Wagered

Denver, Colo, July 11.--George Dixon,
featherweight champion of the world,
was given the decision over Tommy
White at the end of 20-round bout
before the Olympic club tonight. Dixon
led the fighting from the sixth round to
the finish. Tommys purpose being to
avoid a knockout and stay the limit
Georges left hand work was the COM

the ribs to the head and back again so
quickly as to almost escape the eye.

ner and frequently cautioned when his
over anxious man would get careless.
kid" Mccoy officiated in the same
capacity for White. Bat Masterson
was referee. The attendance numbered
$500. Dixon weighed in this afternoon
at 125A pounds and white at 12O pounds
The betting was 10 to s on Dixon and
quite a bunch of money changed hands
at these odds.
In the first round Dixon forced mat
tiers, Tommy blocked cleverly and
landed several lefts on head and chess.
There was no damage.
The second round was very fast,
age. Tommy did his share of this
work. bringing his left to Georges head
and his right hand to his left eye as
the round closed. Blood trickled from
a cut over Georges left eye.
In the third round White was the ag-
gressor at first, but ran into a stiff left
punch from George, quickly followed
by rights and lefts that put him on
the defensive. George became careless,
and, cautioned by O'Rourke, he settled
down and was showering vicious lefts
to Tommy's body as the round closed.
In the next round George displayed
over anxiousness and judged distance
badly. Tommy was cool and careful.
Just at the end George brought his
right with force to Tommy's kidneys
and left to neck, staggering White.
Honors were about even.
In the fifth round Tommy displayed
clever ducking and side-stepping, and
thereby avoided the fierce rushes of
Dixon. The latter was trying for
knockout.
In the following round Dixon settled
down to business. His hard lefts on
Tommy's face and body visibly weak
ened the latter, who recovered mo-
mentarily until the end of the fight.
From this on to the 18th round it was
pretty much the same
George was strong and on the ag-
gressive all the time. Tommy seemed
dazed and led but little He hung to
George a good deal of the time. But
Dixon could not place enough force in
his blows, although he rained them
on Tommy's body and head to put him
out.
In the last minute of the goth round
George brought hard left on Tom
my's neck, which caused him to WAIVER.

LIMIT OF CONCESSIONS.
NO Agreement Reached in the Reel

no agreement Reached in the Reel
procity Treaty.
washington, July lit appears to
be the accepted view in well informed
government quarters that the limit of
concessions has been reached in the
negotiations with the French reciproc-
1ty treaty and to-day's conference did
not bring about material advance in
the negotiations. France conceded the
minimum rate on the entire tariff
schedule at the outset, the difference
being the usual maximum rate and the
minimum rate being about 20 per cent.
Mr.. kasson, in return, submitted list
OF articles on which our rates would b
reduced under the provisions of section
four of the Dingley act allowing not
lover 20 per cent reduction on articles
agreed upon. The American conces-
sions, however, have not proved as sat
isfactory in Paris as was expected, and
considerations have been given of late
to extending the list somewhat. Some
further concessions have been made on
our side, but these have not been suffi-
cient to close the negotiations AT the
same time there Is no thought as
yet of abandoning them, and a treaty
may result

REACHING A CRISIS.
Canadian Police Sent to the Porcupine
District.

District.
Chicago July u-A special to the
Tribune from Washington says: An in
timation has been received by the state
department that the Canadian govern
ment will send a force of mounted po-
lice to the Porcupine' region in British
Columbia. If this is done. the United
States government will respond by
sending troops to Pyramid harbor to
protect the interests of the American
citizens there. The situation is ex-
tremely grave and will call for deli
cate work on the part of both govern
ments to preserve the peace.
The Porcupine region is part of the
territory now in dispute, which would
be neutral ground if modus vivendi
were agreed upon. This is the point
where a clash came near being pre-
cipitated some time ago between Amer
lean and Canadian miners. At that
time this government ordered troops to
Pyramid harb9' to preserve the peace.
This action came to the notice of the
British embassy here and it was
brought to the attention of the Sails
bury government, which entered a pro-
test and requested that the orders be
cancelled. This was done and the Ca
madam government agreed to withdraw
It's mounted police. Both governments
have lived up to their agreements and
since that time neither American troops
nor Canadian mounted police have
been in the Porcupine region.
The hopeful view expressed by the
British colonial office is also entertained
here, and notwithstanding the critical
conditions of the diplomatic negotia-
lions it is believed an amicable agree
n ent can be had. There will be no
hesitation on the part of the officials,
however, to send troops to Pyramid
harbor if the Canadians should send a
force of policemen near the American
line.

to Kellogg with the rioters. On the re-
turn trip he recognized Corcoran. AT
kellogg he saw a number of masked
men, all armed. On cross-eXamina ton
he said he was not absolutely certain
about Corcoran.
Clark was asked to identify his testi-
mony before the coroners jury, when
he stated positively that he saw Paul
Corcoran on the train between Ward
ner and Wallace when the mob was re-
turning April %. He said that he could
scarcely be mistaken. knowing Corc1-
ran intimately. He also replied in the
negative when asked if he possibly was
mistaken in the man. Witness admit
ted having testifying thus before the
cOroner's jury, but persisted that cir
tcumstances since had made him doubt

animation.
Under cross-examination, he said he
was confined at Wardner two weeks
and four days, beginning May /. He
was released, but later was rearrested
and had been held since.
Counsel for the defense asked several
questions tending to show that the ties
timony before the coroner was given as
a result of threats or promises but wit
ness denied having been influenced in
any manner Continuing. he said he
had talked with Mace Campbell this
morning and Campbell said:
1T will be best for you to stick to
your testimony before the coroner
Witness said he could not conscien-
tiously do so. that he believed he saw
Corcoran on the train, but would not b
positive.
Campbell told me if 1 did not tell
the same story it would be impeachsd
but did not say what would be done
