Statue of an eN-PrpSident.

NEW YORK, June 12.-Not long
after cX-President Chester A. Arthur
died fund was started among his
friends to erect a statue to his mem
Dry. So little noise was made over
the work that it sank out of sight
of the general public and many per-
sons will be surprised to hear that the
statue will be unveiled in Madison
square next Tuesday afternoon.
When the subscriptions had reached
$4,000 the committee deemed the sum
sufficient and gave the order for a
bronze statue to George E. Bissell, the
sculptor. The statue represents Gen
eral Arthur seated, with his eye glass
es in one hand and a book in the
other. He appears as though just
about to rise from the chair, which
is fac smile of one he used when in
the White House. The statue will
stand at the northeast corner of Mad
ison square, opposite the Old Union
League club building, now the Man
haitian clubs home, with which Gener-
al Arthur was closely identified.

GERMANS OBJECT TO SECRECY.
Misleading Reports Sent Out Regarding
Peace Conferences,

Misleading Reports Sent Out Regarding
Peace Conference,
THE HAGUE, June 1.-THE chief
delegates to the peace conference met
today to discuss German complaints
against the secrecy imposed upon the
delegates and the consequent of mis-
leading reports published and it is I'M
derstood that Count Munster, head of
the German delegation, was instructed
to propose that the protocols for the
plenary sittings of the committees be
published Immediately after they are
Lrawn up.
American delegates tell the repre-
sentative here of the Associated Press
that they are still confident of the
adoption of some of their chief pro-
Jects for arbitration, but the prelimi-
nary discussion yesterday indicates
the impossibility of maintaining them
ell. For instance, it is impossible to
carry the proposals that the judges Of
the arbitration tribunal be elected BY
the highest court of justice of each
country, as some of the European
countries do not possess a judicial Or
ganization permitting such procedure.
IL is expected that the likeliest out
come will be that each country will be
free to choose the manner of nominat-
ing its own judges.
The Americans propose to insist
upon a permanent tribunal If this
Is impossible they hope to obtain at
any rate the institution of a perma
nent commission. They will also in.
sist on other points.

RObbers Weary and On Foot.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., June ia
messenger reached Casper today from
the posse which is chasing the Union
Pacific dynamiters with the the news
that two of the men had been seen
Thursday at the Bar G ranch, owned
by Robert Tisdale, seventy-fivo miles
north of Casper and about thirty miles
from the HOle-in-the-Wall. The fugi-
tives were seen by Al Flood, assistant
foreman for Tisdale, who recognized
George Curry and one of the Roberts
brothers. The men were on foot and
were faded and apparently much worn
by their long struggle to evade capture
The officers in pursuit are in the
same region with the fugitives and
their capture is reasonably certain.
Extreme care must be exercised, how
ever, in the hunt to avoid a repetition
of the ambush by which Sheriff Hazen
lost his life. The Union Pacific COM
pany is sending out provisions, sup
plies and fresh horses to the posse SO
that there will be no hindrance in con
tinuing the search for the outlaws.

Fobable that the crisis in the Trans

htoward incident at Johannesburg. j.
Robinson, the South African mill

most serious. The agent added that
mass meeting of Utlanders will be
eld today in order to confirm and
lpport the proposals of the British
Ugh commissioner, Sir Alfred Miner.
S open-air meetings are not improb-
pie, if the necessary permission is not
btained, that the police will endeavor
, stop the meeting.
The eoncensus of opinion among
fominent Utlanders and South African
CAPITALISTS in London is that the Brit
