PARTITION IS IMPOSSIBLE GUAM MEN ANER|CMS2
QUESTION ARISES IN JUDGE
ESTEES COURT
But to Make Sure Allegiance in Fore
sworn to the King of Spain-FnipinO
Men Next. .F

Judge Estee struck snaR this MORN
Ing in the matter of the naturalization
of Raymond Reyes. The circumstances
of the case were unusual and uneN-
pected, but it is learned that other
cases Of the same kind will come No i'm
the United States District Court
After Reyes witnesses had testified
the court asked the petitioner: Where
were you born?" In Guam, your hon
or" was the reply. Judge Estee hest
tated and appeared a bit confused The
remaining questions were asked and the.
usual swear him. to the clerk. con-
cluded the examination. The oath OF
naturalization requires the petitioner to
forswear allegiance to some particular
ruler Clerk Mailing made it the King
of Spain, getting about as near it as
possible.
When Reyes started to go Judge Es-
tee called to him and said THE court
is inclined to the opinion that It was
not necessary for you to naturalize- the
country of your birth being now a. part
of the United States. The courts re-
collection of the treaty with Spain is
that the inhabitants of Guam become
American citizens in two years. unless.
they return to Spain. However, L am
not clear on the point and j suppose
that in naturalizing you have taken
the safest course. This is the first Case
of the kind to come before the court
But it is not the last case Judge Es-
tee VIII have. 1t is learned that there
are several other Guam men here who.
will apply to the District Court for the
rights of American citizenship. A uHTs--
Der of Filipinos have also been wHfkSugs
for some one to break the ice for them
Reyes has done it, for the status of tIEee
local Fiipinos is identical with LH5Cs NJ
the Guam man. There are several on
these Filipinos in the Hawaiian gSKUud.
Raymond Reyes was for many years
a salesman for Waterhouse. He uRR
retired from business on account OF are.
but with considerable money and prop
erty. He has always been a good citf-
zen.

and presidents bearing on this subject
and next time will be able to rule
promptly on the applications of Fill

POLICE ON CUDAHY CASE.
Will Do Everything to Catch the K

Omaha, December 20.-Most people vii wonder why the police did not attempt to capture the kidnappers of young Cudahy when his father took out that $25, 600 We'd nesday evening"" said Chief of Police Don ohue tonight. We could have done so, but 1t was MT. Cudahy's wish that we do noth- ing that would interfere with the safety of the boy. Mrs. Cudahy was nearly broken down with nervous prostration and MT. Cudahy was little better
 "He said to us, first want the boy so he took the matter in his own hands and went out alone with the money. It cer- tainly does seem strange that man, espe- cially business man like Mir. Cudahy, should go out and drop $25, 900 by lantern in the country, not knowing who should get it, and all on account of an unsigned let ter, but that was most assuredly what he did. In his frame of mind I believe that if the letter had demanded $50,0O0 he would have carried 1t out as quickly.
 No effort will be lost to bring the ab- ductors to justice. This is for the benefit of the public, and to prevent a repetition of this most dangerous crime, which has been introduced here. MT Cudahy evinces but little desire to prosecute the case, but fle promises to do whatever We want him to do in the matter He is the best satisfied man I ever saw, now that he has his boy aPainn

and he dropped dead. The crowd at once scattered, and Alvin Lewis, his sons and nephews, fled in the direction of Wolf river. Bloodhounds were secured and the trail taken up. Alvin Lewis was quickly over hauled and sent under guard to Mississippi City, where he was placed in jail. The posse kept on it's way and ran down one of the nephews.s The prisoner protested his innocence, but was started toward Gulf Port under an escort. When within half mile of Gulf Port the escort was overpowered and the prisoner taken away and shot to death The posse is still pursuing the two Lewis boys and their cousin. They are said to be in the vicinity of Wolf river today and their catpure is regarded as certain.
 Intense excitement prevails at Gulf Fort and some hotheads are talking of moving on Mississippi City to take out and lynch old man Alvin Lewis. As a result of the tragedy the negro church at Gulf Port was burned last night. Richardson was from Meridian, Miss.

THE BOOZ INQUIRY IS NOT YET ENDED Court Also Investigates the Death of Former Cadet John
 F. Breth

West Point, N. Y, December 2O.-The military court of inquiry composed of Gen eral Brooke, Bates and Clous got through a mass of evidence today and tomorrow the cadets of the first class, among them are Frank Kelar, who fought Booz, and some of the men who saw the contest, will be examined. The name of former Cadet John F. Breth of Altoona, Pa, who is al legged, died eighteen months ago as re- suit of brutal hazing at West Point Mili- tary Academy, was associated with that of Oscar l.. Booz in the inquiry today.
 Superintendent Mills emphatically de- nies that Breth was injured while here and said today that the assertions to that effect were absolutely false. In refutaion of the statement made by Cadet Booz's father, Congressman Phillips of Cleveland sent a telegram to Superintendent Mills of the academy that he never came 10 West Point for the purpose of protecting his son, Cadet Burt w. Phillpis, from be- ing hazed. This was submitted to the court and by direction of the court it was attached to the record.

CANAL TO BE NEUTRAL But United States Can Adopt De- fense When Necessary MORGAN VOTED WITH MAJORITY After Long and Tiresome Debate the Senate Came to Vote and Paso-
 ed on All the Features
 in an Hour.

Washington, Dec. 20.--After spending the greater part of the past fortnight in coL- sidering the Hay-Pauncefote treaty for the modification of the Clayton-Bulwer conven- tion of 1850, the Senate today consumed only one hour and ten minutes in amending it and ratifying 1t as amended. During the time there were six roll calls and several viva voce votes. The first five of the roll calls were on amendment offered by indi- vidual Senators and the last one on the resolution to ratify the treaty as amended. All the amendments except those reported by the committee on foreign relations were voted down by majorities averaging about 19. The ratification reached was adopted by vote of 55 to IS.
 Senator Lodge, who, as member of the committee on foreign relations, has piloted the treaty through the Senate since the death of Chairman Davis, lost no time in demanding that the voting begin when 3 o'clock arrived.
 The first roll call was upon Senator El- kins amendment declaring that nothing containined in this treaty shall be construed

 meeting of the ministers will be held tonight to sign the note which probably on Sunday will be delivered by all the minis ters to Lii Hung Chang and Prince Ching, with a request that they reply as soon as possible. The original note will be writtn in French. Mir Conger and Sir Ernest Sa- tow will'enclose an English translation to which a Chinese copy will also be attached. Four days will elapse before reply can be expected, owing to the necessity of com municating with the Chinese court
 The modification proposed by the British government was that until China had proved that she intended complying with the terms of the note and rendering full satisfaction to the powers, no hope could be held that the occupation of the province of Chi Li by the allied forces would cease.

New Orleans, Dec 20.-Citizens of Gulf Port, Miss, a lumber town about seventy five miles from this city, lynched one~negro and are hot on the trail of three others as a result of the cold-blooded murder of Town Marshal W. E. Richardson there last night. The negro lynched is not the one who did the shooting. but had been arrested by posse that was pursuing the real culprit and his raltives. The murder was the re- suit of dispute between Alvin Lewis, negro, and Marshal Richardson. large crowd, principally composed of negroes, sur rounded the men at the time including two sons of Lewis and two nephews both of the latter bearing the same name-Henry Lewis.
 While the marshals back was turned one of the nephews pulled his weapon and talk ing deliberate aim fired into the marshal. The bullet went through Richardson's heart

 The ministers admit that yesterday was 8 critical moment for the preliminary joint note, as 1t was felt that point had been reached, where, if they did not agree, other difficulties might arise. As a matter of fact, there was a threat by one of the min isters that his government would have other notifications and that he had not reached decision.
