DUSTIN SHAW TALKS.
Tells Messenger Reporter Of the
Pursuit and Capture.

Woodstock, May 10.-Shaw said:
"We got out of here at about mid
night and went to Jim Hatch's in
Barnard, where we had worked.
Here we had something to eat, told
Hatch we were out on bail and were
going to Bethel to find work. We
were afraid they would set blood
hounds on us and took our rifles to
shoot them with if they caught us.
We then went down the road toward
Bethel until we were out of sight of
the house and then struck out into
the woods, where we remained hidden
till night. Then we started out and
became lost, bringing up the next day
in the Stony Brook region in Stock
bridge. We hid ourselves on South
Hill and shot a rabbit, which we were
cooking when the officers came upon
us. 1t was here that Frank shot
Hoffman. After this we went to-
wards Pittstield and waded across the
river near there. Then we went to-
wards Rutland, travelling much. but
gaining little. We became lost again in
the night and came out at West Ro-
chester. We inquired our way and
went by road to Dashtown where we
waded another river, and reached the
woods again. During part of each
day we would get little rest by ly-
ing in the bushes covered by spruce
boughs, but most of the time we were
tramping, as we were not as cold as
when lying still. We were expecting
to strike the vicinity of Lake Dun
more, but not being familiar with the
country, came out in Ripton.
On the day before we were taken we
came upon the Lincoln road and fol-
lowed the North Branch down to East
Middlebury. We passed through that
village by night and stopped at the
Seeley place beyond to get something
to eat. They gave US hunk of pork
and half a loaf of bread. Then we
crossed Three.mile bridge and went
into Holden's barn. 1t was then
about O'Clock in the morning and
we stayed there till noon and were
captured as soon as we went out. This
was the longest rest we had had and
we were about dead"
AS the reporter was leaving he
shook hands with Shaw, who said:
"Tell them that l am sorry it ever
happened; God knows. | am bad
enough, but | never intended to kill a
man, and Frank didn't either"
Shaw was born in Weybridge, but
his home is in Glens Falls, at pres
ent. He has wife and daughter at
that place who are now with Frank
Shaw in the Middlebury JAIL He also
has a son Charles in Michigan. His
children were all born in Weybridge.
Frank Shaw is only p or % years old,
and not 81 or 32 as he stated. Dustin
Shaw himself is a man of about 50
years of age, rather inferior look
ing with a decided stoop. All of his life
has been spent as a lumberman and
as such he came to Vermont little
more than a year ago. 1t is said that
he has served time on several small
charges and one states prison sen.
tence butt this is not known to be a
fact.

quarters and its advisability is urred
because Pekin, as the capital of the
Chinese empire, is the center of in
huence throughout the country.
Another point which may be pro-
posed is that capital punishment by
beheading or otherwise shall not oc-
cur in future by imperial predict alone,
but only after a trial such as is
given in civilized countries, the ac-
cused having an opportunity to be
heard. This does not apply to the ex-
ecutions made necessary by the Box

A BURTON MAN WHO IS WITH LONG.
Another claim set up 10y the Baker
men today is that they will get the
vote Of W. G. Miller of Barber
county. They admit that Miller is
for Burton personally, but say he
will do what Long says. This con-
tention, however, may turn out to be
empty, for on the face of the returns
Miller is two votes behind his fusion
opponent His chance depends on the
votes of ten Barber county soldiers
in the Philippines, and after all it is
not certain that the ballots reached
the islands in time for them to vote.
Last night at Fort Scott Jacob Isaac
Sheppard, Senator Bakers Populist
supporter, and Peter 7. Foley, a Bur-
ton adherent made bet on the result
of the senatorship fight, Sheppard
taking the field against Burton. They
first put up $50 apiece and then agreed
to add $500 more on the side. In evil
dence of their good faith they put mp
"A forfeit of $40 and will put up the
rest of the $500 tomorrow.

GOSSIP
Topeka Politicians are Talk
ing Nothing Else now
Who is to Manage the Fight
and who is to Win? 1t
is Going to be
A FIGHT TO A FINISH
Between Burton and Baker
with Chances About Even
And With Very Little Pro-
liability Of a Dark Horse
Getting into it

Topeka, Nov. l3.-Adherents of
Senator Baker are gathering in To-
pela today to get their bearings and
organize for the contest for the United
States senatorship before the legisla-
ure. Senator Baker came over from
Leavenworth on tie Union Pacific at
l o'clock and found ahead of him AT
the Copeland hotel Cyrus Leland,
Isaac f.. Lambert, United States dis
trict attorney: G. >. Jobes, national
bank examiner; Frank l., Brown,
United States district court clerk. and
w. f.. Sterne, United States marshal.
Their plan is to engage headquarters
in the Copeland and open them to-
morrow. Their manager has not
been agreed on yet but all want Mr..
Jobes to accept, and it is probable
that he will consent. If he does he
will come to Topeka and stay to the
end of the contest next January.
Mr.. Jobes is acknowledged to be a
shrewd political manager and his Sc
lection is one of the best that could
be made. He is conservative in his
estimate of the relative strength of
the two leading candidates. Mr. Jobes
is one of the few Baker men who say
they must fight for unpledged votes.
Others, even Senator Baker among
them, claim that they have enough
pledged in advance to control the
caucus.
BAKERS STRENGTH IN THE HOUSE.
Still, they are out hunting for votes,
and they have enlisted Populist lead
ers to line up fusion votes. In Bour-
bon county, for instance, they have
an ally in the person of Jacob Isaac
Sheppard, who says the three fusion
members of that county will go into
the Republican caucus if necessary to
elect Baker and in addition willhelp
him organize the house. The senate,
the Baker men concede to Burton.
They admit he has twelve or fifteen of
the thirty Republican senators while
Burton, himself, claims twenty-three.
Burton's big strength in the senate,
however, lessons his force in the
house, and therein lies the opportun-
ity of the Baker men.
The Baker men claim also that they
have formed an alliance with Con-
gresham Curtis. If this be true it is
because Curtis has an eye out for the
senatorship himself, and expects to
pick up votes among the Baker men
If the ubreak comes. Congressman
Calderhead, If he takes side, may
be expected to land there too, for he
has ambitions of his own. Congress-
man Long has been with Baker from
the outset.

HAY Is GRIEVED
Our Secretary of State DisapprOvcs
Emphatically of the Apparent
Determination of Powers

Washington. Nov. ID Secretary
Hay is much iTitated over reports
from Picking showing that the minis
tiers are determined to punish every
influential Chinaman who they think
is responsible for the recent outrages
and showing also that the indemnity
to be demanded will reach 5000, GOO, OO0
The secretary is anxious that the pow
ers shall submit demands that can be
accepted by China.
Officials at Washington hold that
examples should be made only of those
conspicuously guilty and that the
amount of indemnity should certainly
be not more than 5000, 900, 600. 1t is
pointed out that, if all the leading
men are sentenced to deaththey will in
self-defence organize resistance,
which will necessitate further military
operation, the end of which no one can
foresee.
The president and Secretary Hay
are anxiously awaiting the result of
the deliberations of the ministers. 1t
is plain that the ministers are not
pleased over. the developments of the
last few days.
Lieutenant General Miles, as acting
secretary of war, has been advised of
the departure for Manila of the last
American troops, which which were
ordered to leave China. The force
now under General Chaffee consists
of the Fourteenth infantry, squad
ron of the Sixth cavalry and Battery
f of the Fifth artillery.
The United States has thus with
drawn its troops after the necessity for
their presence has passed, At the
same time the protection of American
interests and the American legation
is assured by the maintenance of a
guard of 1900 men. Minister WI is
anxious that this force shall be fur
Their reduced and Secretary Hay has
announced his willingness, provided
other nations withdraw.
In addition to the points said to be
agreed upon at Pekin as a basis for
settlement with China, as announced
in cable dispatches, it is understood
that several other points are likely to
receive attention when the matter is
taken up with the Chinese ENJOYS.
One of these is to making the city of
Pel1in an "open port" for while it is
not on the sea coast, the purpose is to
extend to it that freedom Of commerce
and intercourse with foreigners which
now applies only to those open ports
designated by treaties with China,

They Like Their Pastor

In this day and age when congre-
cations and pastors meet and sepa-
rate like ships that pass in the night,
and when the new pastor lasts hardly
long enough for all the congregation
to be introduced, it is really pleasant
to find a case of lasting regard, The
congregation of the Church of Christ,
after an acquaintance with Rev. G.
M. Weimer of close on year, last
Sunday by most, pressing invitation
asked him to accept the pastorate of
the church indefinitely. He has built
up the church in point of membership
and interest during his stay here until
it is one of the strong religious bodies
of the city and the relation of the pes
tor and his flock having proven
mutually very agreeable the eaii was
made and the good work wiz go on.

of Mrs. A. Z. Campbell.

A mortgage for $4,000, issued by
the Kapiolani estate in favor of Mrs.
A. X. Campbell, was fled yesterday at
the office of the registrar of convey
ances. The board of directors at their
last meeting held on Monday, after dis
cussing the present financial outlook,
decided that the above amount was an
absolute necessity. There were several
large bills of pressing attention that
needed looking after, and no money
was on hand to meet the expenses. A.
Drier has $4,000 note and mortgage
on the estate. A. s. Wilcox has an
other account of the same character,
amounting to $4,000. The assessments
on Kihei stock were also due. and that
necessitated another large sum OF
money. Mrs. A. K. Campbell offered
to loan the estate $15O,OOO at ! per cent
for two years, and after considerable
discussion her offer was accepted.
