cate a lack of confidence.
New York. Nov. IA dispatch tc
the Herald from Paris says: The fol
lowing statement is given prominence
in La Presse:
"A parsonage who claims 10 be thor
oughly acquainted with what is goinE
on behind the scenes on the matter o.
the divulgence of the secrets OF tho
latest French field gun to the United
States, makes the following statement
g This affair is connected with the
sudden departure for Gibraltar Of al
officer of the United States navy. whC
was employed in the foreign section OF
the exposition after having fulfilled his
functions as the naval attachee at the
embassy. The field gun incident was
also the cause of the sudden handing
over of the affairs of the embassy to
the first secretary by General Horace
Porter and his deputy for Spain
The former naval attachee in ques
JiOn, who was born of British parents
and devoted above all to the embassy
in the FaubOUTS Saint Honore, acted
almost openly as spy for several years.
The departure of General Horace
Porter, which is given out as tempo
rary is really final and he will be re-
placed in Paris by John Leishman,
United States minister to BeTne, a dip
lomatist OF the highest character,
whose independence vis-a-vis the En-
lish embassy can be counted upon for
maintenance Of good relations between
the French republic and the United
States"

No Further information Concerning
the Whereabouts of Hermans

No word was received from Omaha
yesterday relative to the supposed ap-
prehension in that city of Rev. Francis
Hermans, the murderer of two young
Scandinavian women in the basement
of his church in this city in May, 1896.
nor was it expected that any informa-
ton would come Of his capture or 9th
erwise after fleeing from Chicago. as
noted in yesterdays Herald dispatch,
until after Sheriff HOweIIs reaches
Omaha this morning.
1t was admitted at the sheriff's Of
fee yesterday. that Sheriff Howells had
gone to Omaha. but Chief Deputy
Montgomery insisted that his principal
had merely gone on a little recreation
trip to the Nebraska metropolis at his
own expense, in company with Sheriff
Mcdaniel of Rawlins. WyO. No further
information would be released from the
sheriff's Office on the subject of Her
mans presumed presence in Omaha and
the object of the sheriff's trip there.
TIE police department has heard Moth
ing of the plan to apprehend the fUgi-
tive murderer.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1900-11-17

To ex-Deputy Sheriff Dowse doubt
less belongs the credit Of locating Her
mans in one of the Illinois towns F;
couple of months ago. and having hIr
traced to Chicago, where his cousin
Detective John TuxfOrd. took up TIT
chase and located the parson in the rol
of an itinerant piano tuner Identifica-
ton was made by means of photo
graphs and other descriptions.
As stated in yesterdays special dis
patch, Hermans skipped TO Omaha
few days ago on seeing an item IN 2
Chicago Scandinavian paper referring
to him and his connection with tn
double murder and his known presence
in the big city by the lakes DOwse say
he received a letter about three week
ago from his cousin, stating that n
probably would telegraph here of Her
mans arrest couple of days later. bu
since then he mas received no adVices
and naturally he is somewhat mystifie6
at the failure Of the dispatch to reac
him, if one was sent. Detective Tux
ford had assistance in the search f.
Hermans, and the object was the secu-
ing OF the reward of $500 offered for tn
former Clergyman capture.

America would have hung to the skirts

European complications. She would
have profoundly affected her foreign
policy in the direction of peace and her
influence on her domestic policy would
have been scarcely less potent
Probably she would have apDeased
and even c0ntented Ireland. The an
Gent constitution of Britain would
have been rendered more cCmprehen-

hand, the American yearning for lib

form; would have blended with other
traditions and flowed into other molds

REVOLVER, ESCAPE AND FIGHT BATTLE

Le2VenWorth, Kan, Nov. 16.-One Of
the most daring and successful escapes
on record was made by three cOnVicts
at the state peniIentiary at Lansing
this afternoon. The dash for liberty
for one, at least was brief, as he fell
with a bullet through his head from
Deputy Warden ThOmpsOn's revolver
before he could gain cover.
The COnviCts, Sam Smith, under
death sentence, Z. +. Estell and Ben
Cravens, during odd moments in the
coal mine, had fashioned a dummy
revolver out Of wood, covering it with
tinfOil. This afternoon the guard at
the bottom of the pit suddenly found
himself looking into the muzzle of what
he thought was a 32-calibre revolver
At the same time he was commanded
hands uD.'
The guard was compelled to give
the signal TO lift up" and on reach
ing the top the quartette passed the
top guard unchallenged, the one &C
companying the cOnvicts being afraid
TO give the alarm.
