Sir: 1 have the honor to acknow- ledge receipt of your letter of July l6, 1901, containing the substance of the report of Ambassador Clayton concern ing Mexican judicial procedure in res- pect to accidents occurring upon rail- way lines in Mexico, and also setting forth at some length your own views and conclusions with regard to this matter.

Incarceration of Railway men in Mexico.

collision resulting in no personal harm but damaging rolling stock: convicted and sentenced August i. 1899, to one years imprisonment from May &, 1899.
 6. T. w Lewis, engineer on Mex ican Central railroad, imprisoned September 26, 1900, charged with run ming over a Mexican; acquitted De cember s, 1900; discharged December 20, 1900.
 :. Albert Trask, conductor on the Tehuantepec railrCad: imprisoned No vember ?, 1900, charged with causing collision resulting in no personal in- jury aud causing but little damage to rolling stock acquitted and released February 9, 1901.
 s. A. R. Jones, engineer on the Fl Orc X Mining railroad; imprisoned February l3, 1901. charged with caus- ing wreck resulting in two deaths and the injury of rolling stock; re- leased May II, 1901. on s3OO cash bond; case still pending.
 g.. l.. l. Granville, brak man on the Mexican Central railroad, imprisoned March IS, 1901. for causing the death of laborer by runring over him; trial Of case still pending.
 IL appears from the foregoing state ment that out of F Americans ar rested four were convicted of the offence charged and sentenced to shorts terms of imprisonment, five were discharged, two cases are still pending, and one man, Turner (whose case occasioned protracted cores pondence) died in jail after nearly nine months Imprisonment while still awaiting trial.
 Although the period of detention of such arrested persons prior to re- lease on bail or discharge has in many instances been brief, there remain enough cases of protracted imprison- ment, especially when the accused is held for trial, to warrant the repeated protests of this government against the delays of Mexican justice. In ad- dition, the ambassador has strongly pointed out that the difference be- tween Mexican and American laws in respect to railway accidents works a hardship to the employees in Mexico, in that the agent, not the principal, is held responsible. As to this the, ambassador says:
 "The troubles seem to lie in the law itself, more than it's execution. In conversation with Mir Mariscal upon the subject, he informed me that he did not know of single case under Mexican law, where railway con- panies had been held responsible for accidents, that the policy of their law seemed to be to hold their employees responsible. l explained to him how, in the United States the opposite prn- ciple obtained, resulting in the rail- way company exercising the greatest care as to the efficiency and careful ness of their employees engaged in the movement of trains; that, 1 believed, If the same principle were adopted in Mexico, the railway companies would 5 pursue the same policy, which would result in higher class of employees being employed, and less accidents"
 MT. Clayton reports that SefIor Mar iscal has in mind the issuance of circular letter upon the subject to the different judicial officers under whose jurisdiction such cases come, and that he will give the matter his very care- ful attention, with the view of bring ing about the expedition of such cases and the prevention of just causes for

have instructed MT. Clayton to continue to remonstrate upon all prop CT occasions against the delay in dis. charging or bringing to trial Ameri- cans charged with responsibility for accidents on Mexican railway lines, and to lose no opportunity to impress upon SeIlor Mariscal tte proposition that the preventive and remedial ob- jects of Mexican legislation in respect to railway accidents would be no less well-and, perhaps, be- ter-observed by following the general rule of law in other countries. The policy of pro- tecting the public against loss of life or physical injury in railway travel through the criminal negligence of railway employees is enforced by penal legislation in the United States, and we should not, of course, indicate any opposition to that policy in Mexico, although keeping on the alert to re- monstrate against abusive procedure hereunder. But, while not shifting criminal accountability from the shoulders of the employe the same laws hold the employing company respOnsi- ble in damages for injury to life, per- son or property through the acts of it's agents. As the case now stands, 1t is not easy to see how the family of a person killed, or the owners of prop erty destroyed in such cases may be m materially benefited by the prolonged imprisonment of mere railway subor dinate, while the sufferers remain | without recourse against the company A n equitable division of responsibility | in such matters would, it is thought, tend to the prevention Of accidents and remove to considerable extent the causes of com plaint we are so of- ten called upon to make in view of the needless aud protracted confinement Of our citizens in Mexico, besides dis tinctly enuring to the benefit of sui ferers by such accidents. am, sir, your obedient servant.

NO POLITICS IN TT, EH !

The Constitution Says That There is
 Just Little.
 This mornings Republican had a short editorial on constitutional mat ters which calls attention to fusion candidates. It raises the question, under what head will they be placed, republican or democratic. They must go under either one. For instance, if the democrats nomnate c. F. Chapin, he will be on the democratic ticket of course. Then if the republicans nom- mate him, he will be put under the republican head on that ticket. thus he will be running as q democrat on one ticket, and a republicans on the other. Here is the Republican editorial:
 .The statement of editors, writers and speakers that the constitutional convention is non-political and that the delegates should be selected for their fitness rather than for their poli- ties is succeeded by the printing of the statute which provides that all ballots must contain the name of the party nominating the candidate whose name appears thereon. The query then arises. what is the nonpartisan can didate to do if he must appear as party candidate to assure the voters that he is not a party's candidateT

SHOT AT SUPERINTENDENT
Springfield Insane Patient Tries to
 Kill John Donohue.

Alll JOln DOuOuue.
 Willimantic, Oct 22.-J. l.. Egbert of Springfield Mass. who is an insane pa tient at the Dr Rose sanitarium at South Windham, created sensation i'll the barroom of the Hooker house at noon yesterday by attempting to shoot Superintendent John Donohue of the institution. Egbert was playing pool in company with an attendant and re- fused to return to the institution. Su- and he tried to prevail upon him to re- turn. Suddenly Egbert drew a re- volver and fired at MT Donohue. The bullet, of 3S caliber, wept through MT Donohue's hat and out through win dow, harming no one. Egbert tried to shoot again, but only one chamber of the revolver had been leoaded. He was overpowered and Captain of Police Richmond was sent for and the man was taken to the sanitarium at South Windham.
 Egbert was allowed considerable lib erty, but was always accompanied by a special detective. No one knows how he became possessed of the revol- yer, as due care was taken to prevent such a thing. He has been an inmate at the institution since July. Some six weeks ago his people decided to have him committed as an insane per son. Dr R. c. White and Dr F. E.. Guild examined him and pronounced him insane. Egbert has been claim ing that he was not insane.

NEW HEIR TO THRONE.
Empress Dowaser of China Said to
 Contemplate Appointment.

Empress Dowager of China Said to
 Contemplate Appointment.
 PEKING, Oct 22.-A new heir to the throne will be appointed when the dowager empress meets Prince Ching and several of the viceroys at Kali feng, capital of the province of Ho- nan, where there will be general dis cussion of the affairs of the empire.
 This news is believed to be authen- tic, as it was received from high Chi nese officials. The present heir has proved to be dissipated and uncontrol- lablc. Moreover, his fathers status as a banished prince makes his sue cession contrary to Chinese traditions.
 The candidate of the empress is said to be Peitze, nephew of Prince Tuan, who is Intellectually weak. He partic- irated in the Boxer aggressions. per sonally leading an attack on the French cathedral. The reform faction disapproves of the selection and sug- gests that the powers oppose it if the empress wishes to carry it out.
 Prince Ching starts about Nov. 1 from here to act as grand marshal of the court on it's journey from Kaifeng.
 The heir to the throne is Pu Chun, son of Prince Yuan. He was born in 1884. Tn 1885 Prince Yuan, who had become one of the most powerful of the advisers of the dowager empress, obtained the honor of having his son named by the emperor, and short time afterward Pu Chun was selected as heir apparent.

 THE CASH RETURNED.
Merchants National Bank of Lowell,
 Mass, Resumes.

LOWELL, -.4.. ~s,.. --.--The flnan- cial troubles which had caused great suspense to tue officers of the Mer chants National bank for three days owing to the disappearance of it's tel Ter, Albert G. Smith, and it's bookkeep- CT, Lewis H. Swift, practically has been smoothed out.
 The banks loss, it is understood is made up of two items-first, the steal ings of the two men during the past two years, as shown now by the books, and, secondly, that part of the cash in- cluded in the loot retained by Smith and Swift as the price of their bargain to return the securities. The securities returned to the Merchants National bank by Smith and Swift were valued at $S00,00O.
 These valuable securities" as de scribed by one director, were returned il; carpetbags and represented bonds, notes and other negotiable papers and big punches of money, all supposed to have been taken from the bank vault just prior to the time the men disap- peared on Thursday night.
 
 in the pursuit of Smith and Swift, and Inst night it,was understood that United States officers had found near this city the mems hiding place. An immediate arrest was expected without regard to the probable inaction of the bank di- rectors. From the fact that the lawyers who negotiated what appears to have been an agreement at settlement were in Boston yesterday, and with them was Amasa Pratt, it is generally be- lieved the men were in Boston until some distance away. Smith had cor responded with Montreal parties, and it is thought he has gone there.
 The loot from the bank vault was re- turned in carpetbags delivered at the bank very early yesterday morning aft CT the bank directors had been ill con ference at hotel with Lawyers John c. Burke of this city and Charles W. Bartlett of Boston, representing the men.
 What the agreement was by which the bank got back the greater part of the plunder will not be stated, but the happiness of all the banks officers, ex- pressed without reserve, 'adicates the seriousness of the situation p1or 10 enc agreement. Lawyer Burke when asked if his clients would be in danger of prosecution said:
 q know nothing which would indi- cate that the young men will be prose cuted."
 Several of the directors have stated that they do not expect Smith or Swift to return here.
