famous colored tiger, finds it hard tn
decide when he has enough. He was
pull ed again Sunday for handling or

Lud Madison, who was to have been
hanged at Parkersburg, w. Va, for
murder recently, has been respited by
Gov. White for sixty days. Madison
claims that he has already been. legally
executed, and that 1t is not lawful to
hang a man twice for the same offense.
Two years ago he was sentenced to be
hanged. but stay OF execution was
granted, and the state supreme court
granted him an appeal Through an
error, the records Of the court in which
he was convicted showed that he was
executed instead of respited Madison &
lawyers claim that. according to the
records, Madison is dead and cannot be
lawfully hanged again. They will ap-
peal the case to the Supreme Court OF
the United States.

Washington, Nov. 3.-The taking OF
evidence before the .SchleX court OF in
qIfry practically ended yesterday On
Monday one witness for the Judge ad-
l.yoeate, may go on the stand and Ad-
niiral Schley will be called to certify to
the verbal correctness of his testimony.
When Admiral Schley has completed
this usually perfunctory service the
finat arguments will begin. 1t was ar
ranged yesterday that Solicitor Hanna
will open for the navy department and
will be followed by Capt. Parker and
Mr.. Rayner for the defense in the order
named. Judge Advocate Lemly will
close The court has engaged rooms
In the Mclean building on III street,
where it will review the testimony and
preIare its report of findings and
opinions. One session of the court
lasting two hours was held yesterday.
The only new witnesses examined were
Sylvester Scovel, a newspaper cor
respondent, and Lieut.. John Hood,
who commanded the Hawk
In the Spanish War.
Both of. these were called by the judge
advocate in rebuttal Lieut.. Hood
He contradicted Admiral Schley and
swore that information which he
Hood obtained at Cienfuegos and
which Schley testified would have been
exceedingly valuable to him if it had
been impaired by Hood was secured
from an officer of the Brooklyn sent by
Schley 10 get it, This information re-
lated to q. report of the British steamer
Adula in regard TO the whereabouts OF
the Spanish fleet. On the stand Ad-
miral Schley accused Lieut.. Hood OF
committing an indiscretion in not giving
the Information TO him. Lieut.. Hood
said yesterday that he had not given
the information to ACmral Schley be-
cause it was emtod in a report
made to Lieut.. Simpson of the Brook
lyn. Schley's flagship, and was sent on
board the Adula to get 1t. Hood also
asserted that this
Report Had Been Copied
for him in the executive officers office
on the Brooklyn. The only witnesses
that the Judge advocate still has in
mind 1t Lieut. Strauss, and Capt. Lem
ly said that if the lieutenant's attend
ance could be secured he would detain
the court a short time only. Capt. Sigs-
bee also will return to the stand Mon
day to make corrections in the testi-
mony given Thursday by him. These
details completed, the argument OF
counsel will begin, and then counsel
and the public will withdraw and leave
the court to its deliberations. The
task before the court is not light one,
and Ii may be weeks before the final
verdict will be reached.
Mr.. Rayner said he was not going to
examine any more witnesses, but of
course Admiral Schley would take the
stand TO certify to the correctness of
his testimony. The court then ad-
journed until Monday.

MISS STONES CASE SERIOUS.
Brigands Are Still Holding Out for
the Ransom.


Constantinople, Nov. g. The case of
Miss Stone has again become serious. The
briganGs, it appears, are still holding out
for the f25,000 ransom, and it is feared
that should they persist in their demand
Miss Stone will have to be sacrificed.
Nevertheless. the negotiations are still
proceeding.
Fears are entertained that even II the
ransom is paid Miss stone and the other
captives will be murdered by the bandits.
Anxiety prevails at the United States
legation this afternoon, whence there has
been an active exchange of kilograms be-
tween Spencer Eddy and various points.
Mr.. Eddy yesterday had long conference
with Sir Nicholas O'Connor. the British
ambassador, who is actively assisting in
the efforts TO bring about Miss Stones
release.
So far from there being any confirma-
ton of the rumors of her death circu-
lating in the Bulgarian border districts,
1t is said here that another letter. written
two days ago, has been received from
Miss Stone.
