EVANS TO RESIGN.
Pension Commissioners Has a Long,

Pension Commissioner Has a Long,
ing for Private Lite.
Chattanooga. Tenn, April 10. The
opinion among H. Clay Evans closest
friends in this city. his home, is that
he is about to retire from the pension
office at his own solicitation. The du-
ties of the Office of commissioner of
pensions are extremely arduous and
the compensation does not begin to
compare with what Mr.. Evans would
realize and has always realized from
his private Industrial plant here, the
Chattanooga Car works. 1t seems to
be perfectly understood that the presi-
dent will offer Mr.. Evans an appoint
ment much better than the pension
commissionership as a reward for his
four years labor in the pension office,
but he will decline the offer and retire
to private life in order to give his
whole attention to his business inter-
ests here. His friends say that it will
not be many weeks before the situation
will become publicly known.

Plot to Asnnssinate the Freuch Pres
ident Il Discovered
London, April 10.-A dispatch to the
Evening News from Paris says that
the French detectives were informed Of
a plot to assasinate President Loubet
in his coming trip. Extraordinary pre-
cautions have been taken and the
usual police protection has been
doubles. Outsiders have. been excluded
from the railroad stations. Ten thou
sand soldiers have been detailed to
maintain order during the French
presidents stay at Nice. where strin.
gent orders have been issued to sup
press the slightest hostile demonstra-
ton. The president will ride in a high
landau, the pattern Of which was sus-
gested BY the; manner Of President
CARROTS assassination. It will afford
little opportunity for anarchists or 9TH
lnnaticsE to reach the head OF the

CHUNG TO LIFE.

Drawing q Pension of $1,000 Annu-
ally fer Twenty-Five Years.
Chicago, April 10. The body of
John r. Jefrreys, for twenty-five years
a pensioner Of the Michigan Central
railroad on account of injuries re-
ceived in a railroad wreck at Jackson
Junction. Mich. in 1879, will be ere
mated at the Graceland cemetery IN
accordance with his expressed wishes.
Mr.. Jefreys died Saturday at the 6
of seventy-three years. Twenty-Five
years g he was so badly injured in
a railroad wreck that 1t was not
thought he could live. When he was
hauled from under two dead bodies IT
was found that his skull, arm. collar
bone and his ribs had been fractured.
The railroad company at once offered
him a settlement Of $4,000, but he
wanted an annuity. Then It was agreed
to pay him 1000 annually. in quarter
ly payments as long as he should live.
He received in all 1000.

Ii DYING.

Grand Forks, N. d., April 7.-Charles
Boecher, aged sixteen, the son of Her
man Boecher, a farmer living five
miles southwest Of Blanchard. Traili
county. last evening shot his sister.
aged ten, and his brother, aged six.
The girl is dead n the boy is not
expected to live. The shooting is sup
posed to have been accidental, but this
does not appear to be certain, as only
the children were present at h time
and the boy who did the shooting has
disappeared. AS nearly as can be
learned, Mr.. and Mrs. Boecher had
gene to church, leaving their children
and several neighbors' children in
charge of the Oldest son, Charles. The
boy had been getting his u ready to
go goose hunting. and in some way
the weapon was discharged.

Pekin, April 9.-The commanders Of
the several foreign contingents met
yesterday at Count Won Waldersee's
headquarters and decided to raZe all
the forts at Taku, Tien-tsin, Peitang
and Shanhai-kwan and along the rail-
way within 1000 meters of the line. 1t
was also decided to destroy all the
camps and arsenals except the west
arsenal at Tien-tsin, which will be
used as a barracks for the permanent
military guard. Ten posts will be es-
tablished between Pekin and Shanhai-
kwan, which will be garrisoned by 5000
men. Two thousand troops will be sta
toned at Tien-tsin, but 5000 will re-
main there temporarily. The number
to remain in Pekin has not yet been
decided Upon.
American Evacuation.
Gen Chaffee has announced that the
American troops will evacuate China
at the end Of April. He hopes that he
may induce others to consent to an
early withdrawal.
Additional confirmation has been re
ceived here of an incipient rebellion In
Mongolia. 1t is feared that Gen. Tung
Fuh Slang and Prince Tuan are at the
bottom of the trouble.
Messengers who have just arrived
from Singen-fu confirm the reports OF
the ravages of the famine in that prov
lnce. 1t is estimated that 5000 persons
are dying daily from starvation. Six
teen public soup kitchens have been es-
tablished, but they are utterly insult
hcient to relieve the hunger. The
court appears to be very little dis
tressed by the sufferings of the people.
It is still indulging in amusements. 1t
has received supplies of silver and rice
from the southern provinces.

washington, April 10.-The rejection
of the Platt amendment by the Cuban
constitutional convention puts the Gu
ban question at. rest until December,
when congress again assemblies. 1t
will avail nothing for the Cubans to
send a commission to Washington
now. The president could do nothing
to change h present situation. He
could confer with them, but could
agree to nothing more than to make
recommendations to congress. The
American occupation Of Cuba must
continue until Cuba accepts Athe terms
of the Platt amendment or congress
sees fit to change these terms. This
amendment to h army appropriation
bill was passed without division and
ny a large majority. All parties were
agreed that some conditions
Must He Laid Down
for the withdrawal of the American
troops from Cuba, and they also
agreed that the conditions in the Platt
amendment did no more than to pro-
+ect the interests Of this country.
Many senators and representatives
have visited Cuba since the adjourn
ment of congress. They have. mingled
with the people and talked~with bust
ness men in all parts of the island.
With two or three exceptions these
senators and representatives have
come home convinced that the Cuban
people desire ever closer relations with
the United States than provided for
in the Plat amendment. They. are
also convinced that the members Of
the constitutional convention do no,
represent the Cuban people. Many of
them believe the Cuban people want
annexation, and that such action alone
will settle the Cuban question.
All Questions Set Aside.
But all such questions are now set
aside for the next six months. The
Cuban convention has settled the queA
ton of continuing the military gov
eminent under Gov. Gen. Wood until
congress again meets. The president
has no alternative. Congress named
the conditions under which he should
withdraw the United States troops, &C
cept the Cuban constitution n recog-
nize the Cuban republic. The Cuban
convention has rejected the conditions
and the president has no authority to
withdraw the troops. The situation is
here regarded with satisfaction. In a
measure it restores tranquility in Cuba
because 1t disposes of the constitution
al convention, composed Of revolution
lists, and continues a stable govern
ment in Cuba under the administration
Of Gov. Gen. Wood, who has been re-
markably successful in handling those
: sensitive and impractical people.
