VIII Durbtn Surrender Taylor.

Since TaylnT'S former counsel eX-
Governor Bradley and Judge YGSt
have so deeply implicated him in the
Goebel murder. it is thought in Ken
lucky that Governor Beckham viii send
a requisition for the fugitive from jus
tee TO Governor Durbin of Indiana and
demand his extradition- Should Rip
ley, the banditti leader now on trial, do
what IS expected of him and make a
confession on the stand, there is no ap-
parent reason to doubt that the case
against Taylor will be made even stron-
ger than it is now. Then it IS likely
that the requisition will be issued
The HOosier Governor refuses to say
whether he would or would not sCrren-
der Taylor. adding that he does not be-

interest us to watch Mr.. Durbin's
course in the extradition matter. He
is nearly sure to have a chance of de
Gliding whether to obey or again defy
a clean-cut provision and mandate of
the Constitution
Probably it viii be only academic in
teTest that we shall take in the pro-
Ceedtngs in Indianapolis, because It IS
fair to presume that, were Durbin to
show signs of an inclination to perform
his sworn duty in the premises. Taylor
would quickly get over the line and
into Ohio where Hanna's man Nash is
Governor, and very likely has orders
to harbor Republican criminals from
Kentucky As for the party organiZa-
ton in Indiana, it is represented as
tired and sick OF Taylor and wishful
that he would take up his residence
somewhere else. People instinctively
shun a man OF his sort. and his appre-
hension would not excite any great
public regret It is doubtful If the Re
publican leaders are supplying him as
laVishly with money as they did last
year, before the Presidential election
and il is perhaps questionable if he
has the means 10 leave the country.
Probably he could make a living in
Ohio, if sure Of the protection Of its
Governor. but we do not fancy that
such an addition to the population Of
his home State would be agreeable to
Mr. Mckinley, and this might cause
Taylor to be warned off Then he
would naturally look with yearning

that could be done.

Blood Alleged To Have Flowed from a
Crucifxion Picture.

MENOMINEE. Mich. April 29.-A most
strange manifestation is alleged to have
developed here to-day in the home OF a
humble Polish family. Anton Czarnecki,
a devout Catholic. returned from church
and knelt in prayer. On the wall was a
picture of the Savior on a cross. Upon
looking up he discovered blood trickling
down outside of the glass from the points
where the hands and feet are pinioned. In
great alarm he sent for priests. Two came
and wiped the blood away. running down
q distance OF six inches. Hundreds affirm
the strange occurrence and great excite
ment prevails. The house has been closed
and no further visitors will be admitted.
So far no one can account for the phe-
nomena. Bishop Els has been sent for.
