 A few more shots were fired, but the mob alarmed at the killing of Mrs. Hud- son, quickly left the place without stop ping to destroy the liquors and fixtures. Anticipating the attack Hudson had gath cred about him ten armed men. They, however, taken by surprise were stam- peded and this fact and the killing of Mrs Hudson probably prevented a bloody riot. The affray lasted but few minutes and the details were not learned till to- day the raiders having gone quietly to their homes. The members of the party are all believed to be young farmers who live near Mllwood.

Omaha, Neb., February 19.-The police have under arrest James Callahan. charged with complicity in the abduction of Edward Cudahy Jr. December IS. Cal lahan was arrested last Saturday, but the police kept the fact a secret until today in the hope of securing other arrests.
 Young Cudahy identified Callaha as the man who accosted him near the Cudahy residence and represented himself to be a sheriff from an adjoining county and forced him into a buggy and also as the man who kept guard over him at the Melrose Hill house pending the negotia- tions for the ransom of $25,000 which MT. Cudahy paid for the return of his boy. Daniel H. Burris, who sold a buggy and horse to two men who are supposed to have used 1t to procure the abduction also identified Callahan as one of the men with whom he made the deal. Mary Lar ison a servant in the employ of J. N. Patrick, of whom the kidnapers rented a house, was the third person to identify Callahan and says he is the man who paid a months rent in advance for cot tage in Happy Hollow. which the bandits abandoned two weeks before the abduc- tion.
 Mir Cudahy ST. told a representative of the Associated Press today of the arrest and said his son and two others had identified Callahan as one of the abduct- ors. MT Cudahy feels confident that the police now have one of the right men and that other arrests of equal impor- tance will follow.
 With his father young Cudahy called Sunday at the office of the chief of po- lice and confronted the prisoner. The men had a conversation lasting half an hour and after Callahan had been taken away young Cudahy said:
 q would never forget that voice and also remember distinctly his peculiar manner of pronouncing certain words In his present talk he used these words and pronounced them the same. As had several good looks at the man while he was guarding me, I can be pretty sure that this is the man wanted"
 Callahan denies absolutely that he had anything to do with the Kidnapping, but admits that he Is close friend to Grove. He save he can prove an alibi.
 Callahan tonight made statement as follows:
 'I know nothing, absolutely nothing, about the Kidnapping of Edward Cudahy

THREAT OF THE WALDERSEE
 EXPEDITION IS SUCCESSFUL

London, February 19.-Dr. Morrison,
 writing to the Times from Pekin, says:
 "The Chinese declared that the threat Of the Waldersee expedition has been
 successful, and that the court has yielded
 and issued a decree fully complying with the demands of the foreign envoys on the question of punishments. These state ments require corroboration, but they are generally believed here"
 Commenting editorially upon this and ether dispatches from China the Times says:
 'The blank ignorance of the govern. ment regarding the Waldersee expedition seems more surprising than ever in view of the telegrams published today. If our Pekin news is correct the foreign envoys will have a curious experience in discoy- ering that the most important feature of the negotiations has been settled by an expedient of which they were unaware
 "The minute details cabled concerning the expedition may be received with ju- possible to suggest, as Lord Claiborne did Monday, that no such scheme Is con- templated by any power"
 Proceeding to comment on the note of the United States to the powers censur- ing the expedition, the editorial says:
 Not Protest, But Remonstrance.
 Tt is carefully explained that the note of the United States is not a protest. but 'remonstrance.' This destinction is doubtless designed to save it's authors from the responsibility of hurting the feelings of others too severely It Is to be hoped that, if the reported Chinese sud- render be true, that the rUnonstrance has not yet been dispatched. To 'sterniy rebuke an attempt to put pressure upon k-l.r ftat Cf4 ~<~-k has been successful might be even moro embarrassing than not to have known the attempt was contemplated.
 Most people will be glad for many reasons If Count von Waldersee was only .bluffing', even the strictest of American politicians must admit that the menace of operations is a more merciful method thar the operations themselves. We are not disposed to drive hard bargain or to exact an exorbitant indemnity from China Our real objects cannot be better stated than in MT. Choate's dispatch of last July, giving President McKinley'S polioy in China
 The article concludes by warning tho government to see that British rights in China are not attacked by Russia with and that they are guaranteed by ''something more substantial than ver> bal assurances of Russia's good inten- tons"
 This last paragraph was called out by a dispatch to the Times from Pelxin, giving certain supplementary clauses which M Dewitt, the Russian minister of finance. desires to add to the Russian Chinn. clauses the effect of which would be, &C., cording to the correspondent of the Times, to make the Russian protectorate of southern Manchuria absolute and 
 The clauses provide that no Commercial concession in the whole of Manchurfa is to be granted to any power but Russia. that all the customs are to be con- troled by Russia, and that Russian lana borne goods shall enjoy special prfvfl-. eges over those of other nations
