Y. M. c. A. CONVENTION.
The Sessions Yesteray Were Full of
 Interest.


 Bostonsg June 1s.-Jubilee day, as to- day had been designated by the Inter- national Jubilee Convention of the Y M. C. A. was brimfull of interest and the morning session in Mechanics s Hall was in large degree picturesque and novel. After the formal address had been delivered by Cephas Brainard of New York, President Faunce of Brown University and Rev. F. E. Clark, the father of the Christian Endeavor movement. the presentation of the for eign delegates went on again, as 1t will from time to time each day, the audi ence rising to it's feet and welcoming with friendly voices fluttering hand kerchiefs each representative. A strik- ing figure was Dr. Nicholas W. Vas sielief.> a delegate from Russia, gown ed in the deep crimson silk of his of- flee.
 A special jubilee service was held in the Old South Meeting House. in the chapel of which the first Y M. C. A. in the United States was organized 50 years ago, at which a commemorative tablet was unveiled. A reception of more than 600 delegates by Governor Crane at the State House and a special service in Fanueil Hall. with addresses by Lieutenant Governor Bates, Mayor Hart. and several foreign delegates. filled out the afternoon. In the even ing, a number of prominent railroad officials addressed large meeting in Mechanics Hall. their remarks having an especial bearing upon Association work among the railroad men of North America

EDWARDS NOT CAUGHT
NEGRO WHO MURDERED JOHN
 GRAY FOSTER.
Other Negroes Implicated in the Killing are Confined in Store Near the Scene of
 the Crime.

Shreveport, La., June 13.-This city and vicinity has been in a state of feverish excitement and unrest since yesterday when John Gray Foster, a prominent planter. was shot and killed by Prince Edwards, a negro employed on the Eos ter plantation, five miles1east of this city. Armed posses of white men have been securing the country for miles around in an attempt to capture Edwards. A dozen or more negroes are undsS &rest in Ken hebrews store. and their fate tonight Is uncertain. Foster was widely known and very popular. He was a brother-in-law of Governor McMillin of Tennessee, and belonged to one Jf the oldest families in this State.
 There had been bad feeling for some time past between the negroes and over seers on the Foster plantation, and Eos ter was appealed to to settle the differ ences. The planter started for the plan tation and upon reaching negro cabin, he was fired upon and killed. There were a dozen or more negroes in the cabin, and they ran in all directions. The over seers were quickly joined by white citi- zens. and it was not long before all the negroes were arrested, single exception being Prince Edwards. who did the shoot ing. Posses were quickly formed and started on hunt for the negro, but as yet have made no further arrests.
 There were many wild rumors afioat throughout the day. the most sensational being that the negroes in Kennebrew S store were in imminent peril of being lynched. This rumor proved to be un- true, although many threats are heard against the prisoners. The store where the negroes ae confined is guarded by a posse of twenty-five men armed with Winchester rifles, and unless sentiment changes. the disposition tonight would indicate that the majority of the prisoners will be let off with a thorough whipping. Edwards, if caught will be lynched.
 There is much feeling against "Proph- et'' Smith and Edwards Washington. both of whom are under arrest. Smith is believed to be at the bottom of all the trouble. while Washington is said to have been active in aiding Edwards to escape
 Governor Heard wired tonight to Sheriff Ward of Caldo Parish and Sheriff Thomp- son of Bossier. nstructing them to pro tect the negroes at all hazards. The Governor commanded these officers to can upon the citizens for aid, if necessary, and promised military help if the officers required it. The attempt made to move the negroes in the kennibrew store to Benton proved a failure. The guards and their prisoners had proceeded about a mile when darkness overlook them, and they decided to return their prisoner to the store. The negroes preferred to take their chances at Kinnibrews place rather tha nface the danger of a mob on the way to Benton.

J. A. Futile Kills Himself.

Hutchinson, Kas.. June 13.-Because he believed he was going blind, J. A Futile travelling freight agent of the Rock Island Road for many years, travelling auditor of the Memphis Road and widely known among railroad men, committed suicide in an undertaking establishment in this city by firing a bullet through his head tonight. He left a letter addressed to his wife in Kansas City and another letter ad- dressed to R. c. Fisher. agent of the Rock Island here. The letter contained a check for $20O to defray the ex- penses of a burying casket and ship ping the body to Kansas City. Futile recently consulted an oculist who told him that he would lose his eyesight in the near future. This diagnosis caused Futile to kill himselfg.

ARMY FRAUDS IN FRISCO.
Officers Deny That Any Have Been
 Committed.

San Francisco, Jrne 13!-Capt. A. W. Kimball, Post Quartermaster at The Presidio. speaking today of the alleged frauds in the sale of quartermasters' supplies belonging to the Government said that all the Government things sold in the pawn shops are sold by dis charged soldiers in the returning vol unteer regiments.
 Col. J. B. Rawls, artillery corps, post commander, said: "All this talk o1 fraud is perfect rot. I am confident that no quartermasters' sergeant ol civilian employer is implicated in the selling of even a shoe string"
 A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Abe Abrams, son of Louis Abrams, the secondhand dealer. who, with another son. is in custody. De- tective Reynolds reported to the Fed eral authorities today that he found twenty pairs of Government shoes In Sacramento Street store last night.
 Captain Reymour of the local detec- tive force said today: "No one can say, in view of all that has transpired within the past two days. that frauds have not been going on. The quanti- ties which the Abrams firm were able to supply their customers makes 1t seem conclusive. to my mind, that some one having access to the quarter masters department is in collusion with them"
 The announcement that a warehouse full of stolen goods had been found which was made yesterday on author ity of Captain Seymour, has been found to be erroneous. The mistake arose from misunderstanding of telephone message.

aoULD's ULTIMATUM.
He Will Insist on 6 Share of tn -- |" 'Pennsy1vania's Tonnage.

PennsylvaniHs Tonnage.
 New York, June 13.-The Mail and Express has the following:
 Tt was stated today on semi-official authority that the two matters which will be taken up by the Missouri Pacific Directors at the special meetiMg next Monday are the declaration of divi- dend and the final settlement of terms on which the Texas Pacific Is to be absorbed by the Missouri Pacific. -
 Another question of importance to the Gould lines as a whole Is expected to be settled within a few days. It concerns the proposed Wabash and WhelinE extension into Pittsburg. and an outlet to tide water. Mr. Gould lad further conferences with the Penn syivania Railroad officers today. MT. Gould's ultimatum will probably be that he will build the Pittsburg line, thereby getting entrance into the val uable mining regions. but he will agree to enter into a traffic arrangement with the Pennsvlvania Railroad for his Southern outlets to the seaboard. in- stead of building to Baltimore as he in- tended to do MT. Gould will insist on receiving from the Pennsylvania Rat road a laIGe share of the Pennsylvania Western bound tonnage. The latter. 1t is thought. is disposed to turn over much of it's traffic. inasmuch as the Burlington. with which 1t formerly ex- changed a great deal of business. has become a Morgan-Hill road. and will send much traffic by other routes.
 "The Missouri Pacific system. in cluding the Wabash. can give the Pennsylvania road all of the facilities that 1t needs for most of the far Western and Southwestern business. and beyond the points touched by the Gould lines traffic will be turned ovcr' to the Union and Southern Pacific, in which MT. Gould Is influential"

DEAD IN HIS BED.
Physician Says the Shooting of
 Rocker Was Accidental.

Cincinnati, June 13.-The Bar of Gin cinnati was shocked today to hear that one of it's best-known members was found dead in his bed with bullet in his brain. It was Frederick G. Roelk- CT. unmarried. who, with an unmarried brother. Harry Rocker. lived in 1859 Madison Road. East Walnut Hills, with his sister. The first impression was that the shooting was suicide, but the family physician. after an examination. said the shooting was accidental.
 Rocker has been suffering all win ter from grip, and was detained at home by another attack. He Is the son of pr. Rocker. a prominent Ger man physician, and had been very successful in his law practice. He was a graduate of the Cincinnati Law School, and of the Law School at liar ward. It was a coincidence that for mer member of the law firm of which Rocker was a member, Charles Kib- Ter, shocked the community ten years ago by shooting himself. Rocker lin- cered all day and died tonight.

BLOW TO DEFENSE.
Judge wofford Rules Out Important
 Testimony.

Kansas City, Mo, June 13.-In the case of Lulu Prince Kennedy, the de- fense suffered a second set back when Judge Wofford ruled out a conversa- tion with Kennedy before the killing tending to corroborate evidence of fered yesterday to prove that Kennedy had admitted having ruined Lulu Prince.
 Further expert testimony to prove that the defendant was temporarily insane at the time of the shot was offered, and Bert Prince, one of the quartette of alleged conspirators. again took the stand. this time for the de- fense, to prove an alibi for himself and to deny that he had predicted the killing of Kennedy. Mrs. Kennedy appeared much distressed today.
