today received word that Gov. Thomas,
of Colorado, has refused to honor req
uisition from Indiana for the return of
Clifton OX1nan, of Princeton, Ind, ac
cused of defrauding in real estate Geal
J. Mayer Green, of Chicago: a special
from Denver says the Indiana sheriff
had Attorney General Campbell, OF Col
orado, inspect the papers in the case AID
they were declared legal.
Gov. Mounts, when told tonight of Gov.
Thomas action, said he was surprised at
it.
There may be something political in
this matter" said he. 81 am surprised
that Gov. Thomas resorts to any so-called
precedent in his action on the requfsition.
He cites my action in the Kentucky cases
as a precedent which he says ne is IN
clinedto follow. 1 considered no prece-
dent when L refused the Kentucky req
usitions. 1 did SO because 1 did not be-
lieVe the men could get fair trial. Gov
vernors do not, as rule, resort TO a
precendent in such cases.

With the coming of the cold wave yes
terday morning huge cakes of ice began
to make their appearance, until now the
main channel of the river is a mass of
these moving, crunching, white-crusted
cakes. In the vicinity of the bridge piers
yesterday afternoon several big gorges
formed, but they were not sufficient in
extent to remain a barrier and slowly
passed down the river.
Below the city, it is reported, the ice
is blocking and forming across the chan
mel. The closeup this year is later than
usual, and is credited partly to a heavy
stage of water and the warm weather
which prevailed. The sloughs and small
creeks tributary to the river have been
frozen over for some weeks. The keen
ness of the wind last evening was sufff-
cient 20 whip the moisture from the wa

Dec. 1.

ERIE, Pa, Dec 9.-In the midst Of
one of the most bitter gales that ever
swept Lake Erie, the iron ore barge
Charles Foster, in tow of the Iron Duke
went to the bottom at o'clock this
morning, ten miles off Erie and eight
persons were drowned, as follows:
Capt John Bridge, of Cleveland.
First and second mates, names I'M
known.
Seaman Robert T. Wood.
VIM. Kelley, of Port Austin, Mich.
Cook, Mrs. May, of Detroit.
Two unknown deck hands.
CARRIED MINNESOTA IRON ORE
The Charles Foster was one of the fleet
of Jas. Corrigan, of Cleveland and for
two months has been running from Du-~
luth to Erie with iron ore. Her cargo
consisted of 1900 tons of ore.
Capt. Ashley, of the Iron Duke, made
Erie in safety. In an interview he
said:
1.-The Foster was in tow about GOO feet
astern. 1 was UP all night and there
were three men OF watch with me. The
seas were rolling in from the west and
with them binding snow storm. When
we turned for the harbor, sea much
heavier than any other experienced,
struck US. I ran to the stern. Just as
1 got there the Foster plunged in an
awful sea and dove down nose first.
There was not a cry from anyone of the
crew of eight she carried. Just as she
pitched down 1 saw man on her fore
castle with a lantern. The tow line
parted when she went down. The storm
was SO heavy that I could not put about
to hunt for any one. There would not
have been any use anyhow, because
in those tempestuous seas no one could
have lived a minute, even if the water
had not been icy cold. Had there been
a cry for help'& would have turned and
risked my ship, but it would have been
of no use. had all [ could do to make
port in safety myself
HARD TO LOCATE WRECK.
When asked for an opinion as to the
sinking of the Foster, Capt. Ashley said
he could not tell. Apparently every
thing was all right on board her until
she took that fatal dip, there had been
no signal of distress from ner. There
is little hope of ever being able to locate
the place of the wreck. The Foster was
valued at $4,000, but there was no in
surance, as it lapsed Dec. 1. The cargo
was not insured. The life saving crew
took trip out today, but could find no
traces Of wreckage.

the government to come to terms His
Punishment indicates that the court rec

CINCINNATI, Dec. 9.-Judge w. H.
Taft, president of the Philippine commits
sion, writing to friend in this city from
Manila, under date of Get. %, speaks of
conditions in the ISLANDS. The judge
writes in part as follows.
You are quite right in thinking there
is a great deal Of work to be done in
these islands Whether or not we shall
be successful is, of course, a question
that cannot be answered with certainty,
but we are hopeful of the result, I am
glad to be able to reassure you. The re-
election of President Mckinley will be
a long step towards the pacifcation of
these islands, and will, hope, end what
remains of the insurrection, which is now
continued only for election purposes, to
influence the result in America. and
which is maintained almost wholly
by terrorism and conspiracy of mur-
der, threats and assassination by small
number of Fflipinos in arms against their
own people,

TOUCH OF REAL WINTER
THE MERCURY WAS DOWN TO
ZERO YESTERDAY.

Since Saturday night ct Paul has been
experiencing genuine wintry weather. and
the zero mark has been reached. Yes
terday afternoon saw trief rise in the
mercury, but it did not last long, and
by 10 o'clock at night, zero was once
more reached.
All over the Northwest the cold wave
has extended but the weather man is
of the opinion that oday will see a slight
relaxing of the icy grip. His assurance,
however, is of a negative charcter. as
the best he can promise is .not so
cold.''
Curriers' and dealers in wood and coal are
enjoying the low dip immensely and they
do not care if it never grows warm

TROUBLE FOR THE TRAINS.
Considerable difficulty attended the rum
ming of Sante Fe trains today. The
trouble commenced this morning when
the California limited train No. 4 came
in from the West four hours late. When
it reached the first small station this
side OF Emporia the danger signal was
out. and it had to stop. The process was
repeated at all the small stations be,
tween Emporia and Topeka. The linn
tied never stops at small stations under
ordinary conditions. No. 2, another Cali
fornia train, due in Topeka at 2:30 did
not arrive at all.
No. 6, from the West, arrived nearly
on time, with only three coaches. instead
of the usual number. All the trains from
the East We're from one to three hours
late.
Travel today has been unusually light.
The Atchison train, which is usually
crowded Sunday, had only fifteen people
today, people being afraid to travel en-
account of the possibility of accidents.
The dispatcher's office here is unable to
control the travel over the cut off from
Argentine to Emporia and unless better
conditions. prevail no passenger trains
will be run on the cut off tomorrow.
West of Emporia the train dispatchers
can only guess as to the whereabout Of
trains. Some talk is heard of bringing
the the long distance telephones into
requisiticn to supply the place of the
telegraphers.
TRAINNIEN MAY STRIKE, TOO.
Chairman Newman wires from Wichita
that Santa Fe trainmen west of Wichita
are threatening to go on strike unless
the strike is settled.

Victory After Two Days Fighting.

The State Department yesterday re-
ceived communication from Minister Hart.
at Bogota, Colombia, confirming the fol-
lowing despatch received by Secretary
Hay.
After a fortnight Of lighting In the
northern part of the country. in which
1900 men were engaged. the Government
announces that it has completely. routed
the revolutionists, with heavy 'losses OF
both Sides The revolutionist leaders were
not captured, and are understood to have
still three thousand men in that region.
The Government Is hopeful that the revo-
luton will soon be ended"
Mr.. Hart proceeds to comment on his
telegram in these words:
THE battle referred to in the cable
gram above confirmed is the one long
looked for in the Department OF Santan-
der where the revolution has been strong
est and where each side has massed its
heaviest forces According to Government
information, the battle began on the 11th
Of May and ended on the night OF the
18th of the same month. After two days
fighting. the Government announced and
celebrated decisive victory. The fact now
develops. being admitted by the Govern
ment. that the fighting for the first three

the tide began to turn in its favor.
According to Government advices. the
battle ended on the night of the 18th of
May. the revolutionists being put to
Fight. leaving their dead and wounded
and a large quantity of arms on the field.
The greatest part Of the fighting took
place in Palonogro and Rio de Orc. In
respect Of the number of men engaged.
this was the most important battle that
has ever taken place in Colombia. per-
haps in South America. Both sides were
equipped with modern arms. There are
no details OF the fighting but the slaugh-
ter on both sides is said to have been
horrible. The Government declares that
his victory breaks the backbone OF the
rebellion, and insures a restoration OF
peace.
There are no large bodies of revolution
lists in any other part OF the country, but
there are strong and very active guerrilla
bands in the departments OF Cudinamarca
and Tolima, and bands OF lesser impor-
lance in other departments. The Govern
says, publicly. that the forces recently de-
feated in the Department. OF Santander can
not escape or in any way form union
with the guerrilla bands, since it has the
routed army well surrounded.
at may be that the victory is less deci-
sive than the Government says it is, and
yet l think that the revolution has been
struck a blow from which IT can hardly re-
cover Estimates. for which / cannot
vcuch, place the total loss OF men in this
war at 2o0CO. This. Of course, embraces
those killed in battle and those who have
