Cincinnati, March 19-Mr. T. c. Camp
bell, representing the brothers of the late
William Goebel in the prosecution of the
assassin of Mr. Goebel, was here to-day
fresh from a conference with his asso-
ciates held at Lexington. He said that so
far as now known the assassin was not
yet arrested. He added that the assassin
would be arrested whenever a force of
5000 armed men could be had to so to a
certain county in Eastern Kentucky. He
said further that the attorneys for the
commonwealth claim to have proof 90 es-
tablish a conspiracy for the assassination
but he made the assertion that this con-
spiracy was not charged against the Re
publican leaders, but against what is
known as the 'anti-Goebel party" He
further said it included men who were off,
cials prior to the late election, and men
who thought they became officials after
the late election.

Bishop POtter's Opinion Respecting
the Philippine Islanders.

New York. March 19.-Bishop Potter,
who just returned from a tour which in
cluded visits to the Philippines, Japan
and India, talked to-day regarding his
Impressions. He was most Interested, he
said in the condition of affairs in China
and Japan. He noticed a gradual friend
hness between the two nations and proph-
esied that when Japan has taught the
Chinese the art of war, neither England,
Russia nor Germany will decide the fate
of the East The Chinese do not love
the Japanese, but recognize that they
have nothing to hope for from the Euro
pean nations. and are gradually estab-
fishing an entente cordiale with Japan.
Referring to the Philippine situation
the Bishop said he went 20 the islands
in an attitude of antagonism He de-
clined to say if his opinions had altered
but said he recognized the question as a
purely academic one.
zone thing is evident. and that Is that
the Ftlipinos are in no condition for self
government. If a civil government were
imposed. it would need a large military
force to maintain il.
Several friend of Aguinaldo," continued
the Bishop, called upon me in Hong Kong
and they told me that they were satisfied
that there could be no success for his un-
dertakng. The better class of Filipinos
are satisfied that American occupation
means increased prosperity and are not
raising any objections.
Bishop Potter told of visit he made TO
a factory in Manila, where about 450 FIJI
plno boys and girls were spinning cotton
cloth. The overseer told him they had
learned to work the looms in six weeks,
whereas Irish and Scotch took as many
months before they were of any service.
The natives seemed to take kindly TO the
confinement of factory life, but they OBJ
jected to the orders against smoking in the
factories.

DIDN'T CATCH THE OCTOPUS.
Conditions of the Texas Law Had

Conditions of the Texas Law Had
Been Accepted by the OIL Company.
Washington, March BIN the United
States Supreme Court an opinion was
handed down to-day in the case of the
Waters-Pierce OIL Company, involving Its
rights to do business in the state of
Texas. contrary to the provisions of the
state antitrust laws of 1889 and 1895.
1t was charged, among other things,
that the Waters-Pierce Company was a
member of the Standard Oil trust, as or
ganized in 1882. and various other allega-
tions were made, but the court did not
enter upon n general discussion of trusts,
contenting itself with a discussion of the
Texas laws as applicable to this case.
The opinion sustained the decision of
the state courts to the extent of affirm
ing them, and was thus opposed to the
contentious of the oil company, but it
did this upon the ground that the state
laws imposed a condition which the oil
company had accepted, and hence was
without ground for complaint.

Peculiar Manner in which MafeIxing
LIS Being Relieved.

London March 19.-The converging Of
the troops towards Mafeking may indicate
a movement of more serious purpose than
merely its relief.
Judging from Lord Methuen's presence
at Watertown and the capture of the
nearby passage of the Vaal at Fourteen
Streams, keen observers believe Lord Rob
erts meditates an advance in force on
Pretoria by way of Rustenburg. This
might start either from Fourteen Streams
or Klerksdorp and would probably coin
eide with an advance via Bloemfontein
and Natal. Thus Lord Methuen may be
given the chance to redeem his reputation
as has been done with Gen. Gatacre.
Commandant Olivier has accomplished
another step in his retreat from Northern
