When leaving the Tombs the General said that
his son was not in the least downcast. but was
IN the best of health and spirits. because he was
certain OF a new trial and final acauittal.
Moineux rose at Z o'clock yesterday morning
and ate substantial breakfast. His conviction
has not in the least impaired his appetite. SUB
seouently he exercised for an hour around the
tier in front of his cell. AS he walked around
the other prisoners watched him curiously, but
he never looked at any of them. Upon returning
10 his cell he devoted some time 10 reading
Bible which the Rev. j. J. Monroe, the Tombs
chaplain. gave him a few days ago. Later Moli-
neux was visited by George Gordon Battle The
two were in consultation for about half an hour

TIED her husband late yesterday afternoon. They
arrived at the prison in a closed carriage. and
remained about forty minutes; Arrangements
had been made for the meeting between the
husband and wife. 1t took place in the women's
prison. During the time she was in the prison
Mrs. Molineux cried continually, and left the
place weeping bitterly. The prisoner was also
greatly affected.

Attorney lie Barber will take the case in hand.
but If a new trial should be granted 1t is ad-
mitted that Mr.. Osborne viii again be the prose-
cutting officer.
There was report yesterday that as long ago
1898 Molineux expressed wish to die in the
electric chair, If it could be accomplished with
out disgrace and infamy. II seems that a
physician who witnessed the execution of
Buchanan, in describing what he had seen TO
some friends in the New-York Athletic Club. one
OF whom was Molineux, made the remark that
he could ask no quicker nor more merciful death
than by electricity. Then II was that Molineux
is reported 20 have made the observation: We'll,
when my time comes to die, IL l can have my
wish il shall be in the electric cair IL ii can be
accomplished without disgrace and infamy."
There was nothing extraordinary in the remark
considering the circumstances under which it
was uttered. 1t is not uncommon for people to
express wish as to the manner in which they
would die. In this instance the physician de-
scribed electricity as a painless and merciful
that Molineux should have made the utterance
attributed 10 him.

 Mr. Beddoe is inclined to look upon the recent Yukon election as a tempor- ary reverse rather than defeat for the government, He says if the people had the voting to do over again, MT. Congdon would be an easy victor over the opposition candidate.
 In speaking of the contest for the governorship of the Yukon, Mir. Bed doe said there is not the slightest pro- spect that E. S. Busby will be appoint- ed to the position. He has no doubt but that F, T. Congdon will be selected.

THE PEOPLE BE DAMNED

The Valdez News calls attention to the most unsatisfactory phase of the reappointment of Gov. Brady when 1t complains of what 1t terms "the PeO- ple be damned" attitude of the appoint iug power.
 It is admitted, according to the news paper reports from Washington, that Brady is unpopular in Alaska Judge Day found that much to be true and that the people do not want him for governor, but he said there had been DO corruption or scandals in con- nection with his office. It was found that the complaints in connection with him were because Of his attitude Of hos tility toward anything which tended to develop the district and not because he was charged with being a robber, a highwayman or anything of that kind. Those who testified before Judge Day know that he only attempted to sscer- tain whether or not charges were made against the governor which involved moral turptitude, and his report was based upon his d. dings in that respect. No one protested against Judge Days viudicstiou of Gov. Brady, because no one attempted to iasteu the things upon him from which he was yindicated. Judge Day made little or no att mpt to ascertain the state of public opinion oD Brady, vet Washington correspondents say ir IS admitted in adminis,ra ion cir c rs th the people of rhe district du no want bim T,e >rua.urS who cam uu, here syra. a.d a h,ii agu .ls >a1d ,uis.j,a,y 'hfr b aty W u., or ur.. th -- -pr oi h' u- N . n,

stating that in the last "a hours tele-
gram has been received at the fereign
office, addressed personally to the prime
minister from President Kruger, pro-
posing terms of peace. The exact
terms of the message cannot be stated;
but we believe it is couched in an ex-
ceedingly humble strain" II is incon-
ceivable, of course, that Lord Salisbury
can have sent any reply, except the
one that stands ready on the lips OF
every Recommendations surrender
A special dispatch from Kroonstad
says that Gen. Dewet has sent word
that he is prepared TO surrender condi-
tonally with his entire commando. A
dispatch from Nitsoek, II miles north
of kroonstad, dated the Goth and by
way of Kroonstad, says that Gen. Ham
ilton with the seventh division is
marching east without opposition. A

showed as much enthusiasm as when
news of the relief of Ladysmith was
received. A Pretoria dispatch says the
siege was abandoned after the laagers
had been heavily bombarded, but thus
far no official report has been given
out in London. 1t is also announced
at London that Gen. Butler has occu-

Oliver A. Wright, late secretary of
the Detroit Good Government league,
won victory in the supreme court, on
the 18th. that tribunal not only re-
versing the judgment given against
h IN by the Wayne circuit court. and in
favor of Katherine Shinglemeyer, who
charged him with SANDER and false
Imprisonment, but denying any new
trial of the case. In an opinion writ
ten by Justice Long and unanimously
concurred in, the court says that un-
der the uncontradicted testimony,
Wright could not be held liable for
false Imprisonment, and that if Miss
Shinglemeyer was illegally restrained,
the officer alone was responsible for it,
and furthermore, that the officer was
there at her request and was acting for
her and not for Wright.

A proclamation, purporting to have
been issued by Aguinaldo. and dated
May 4, from Polillo island, one of the
Philippine group, east of Luzon, is cir
culatlng in Manila. Is says the COM
mission appointed by President Nc
Knley was appointed without the au-
thorization of congress, and that, hence,
it cannot treat officially. 1t urges the
Filipinos not to surrender their arms
at the instigation of the commission
and on promises which congress may
not ratify, and also urges the Filipinos
to enthusiastically welcome the COM
mission when it arrives in the towns
and provinces, asking boldly for the
form of government they most desire,
as the Americans permit freedom of
speech. The proclamation closes with
asking the Filipinos to still strive for
liberty and independence, and again
warns the commission against decep-
ton.
