Pursners Hot ON the Trail Of Fosters
Murderer.
Shreveport, La, June 1s.-The search
for Prince Edwards, the murderer Of
John Gray Foster, continues. There
seems to be no doubt that the negro
being pursued into Northeast Texas Is
the man wanted, but his course Is SO
sinuous that it is extremely difficult to
follow his trail. A telephone message
received from Marshall, Tex, says
that the searchers are working night
ard day. Great difficulty is experienced
in extracting information from the ne
eroes in, the country through which
Edwards is supposed to nave passed.
All is quiet at Benton. The sheriff has
q large armed force in readiness and
can put it in service at a moments
notice. The temper Of the public has
cooled considerably.

Pekin, June Is. - An Italian priest
who has arrived here from Shensi III
firms n report previously made by
priests In Shansi In regard to the mas
sacre of Roman Catholic clergymen in
Southern Mongolia. He says that fif-
teen Belgian priests, with a number OF
converts. We're massacr at Niang-
tao-liang. in Southern Mongolia, sev-
eral weeks ago by soldiers under
Prince Tuan, Duke Ian and Gen. Tung
Flu Hsiang.
The belgian minister is not inclined
to hold the court responsible for this
crime. He says the district where the
massacres occurred is the rendezvous
Of many former officials who have been
degraded or sentenced to Punishment.
Those officials are exercising high mil
itary power for the time being, and it
is impossible for the Chinese govern
ment to suppress them. The ministers
have practically agreed on all the
chief points in regard to the
Payment of the Indemnity.
All are willing to accept the American
proposition of an indemnity of $50, 0O0,-
600 tatels, with interest at 4 per cent.
the bonds to be issued at par, and an
annual payment of $4,000, 600 taels to
the sinking fund. Several Of the min
listers have telegraphed TO their home
government in regard to the matter,
and are awaiting replies before making
a final announcement Of the agree
ment. The ministers have also de-
termined the sources from which the
revenue shall. be raised. It would
seem. therefore. that all the articles of
the protocol have been settled salts
factorily except the new regulations In
regard TO modifying. commercial
treaties. which may not be necessary
after all. The ministers are, elated at
the termination Of their trying expert
ences during the negotiations.
