DEFECT IN THE LAW.

 to Death Gan Be Hanged.
 Seattle, Wash, May 29.-The prose cutting attorney of this county has dis covered defect in the law passed by the last legislature regarding the execu- ton of criminals which it is believed insulates it as to all persons now under sentence of death, or who may be sen tenced before June 14, when the law goes into effect Notably the law gives a new lease of life to Charles Nord- strom, whose last appeal was yesterday dismissed in the United States supreme court and who was to be hanged im- mediately. It is held that under de- cision of the United States supreme court in the famous Medley murder case in Colorado, where the same point was raised, none of the murderers now under arrest and sentenced to death in this state can be hanged, the court in the case mentioned having held that a similar act passed in Colorado without a saving clause was an ex-post facto law. There is no saving clause in the law in question in this state which pre- scribes the hanging of murderers in the state penitentiary after period of sol ifaFy confinement.

CITY ATTORNEY KELL0G.
Generally Conceded That He Will Re
 ceive the Judgeship.

Among the legal fraternity it is re- ported that City Attorney John F. Kel- logg can be appointed to the new judge ship of the superior court which has recently been created by the general assembly. No other name in the local bar has so frequent mention or is so generally endorsed as MT Kellogg's His popularity extends down the val. ley to the limits of jurisdiction of Judge Gager of the city court of Derby and there mention is made of Judge Gager for the appointment.
 1t appears to be generally conceded, however, that the appointment will fall among the local bar, New Haven having been given all the distinction it's peculiarly patriotic citizens could fairly or honestly claim. Furthermore, this end of the country is becoming more generally recognized by the pow CTS that be and have been for some years as community that will not longer tolerate the cold shoulder when distinction is to be distributed.
 City Attorney Kellogg has all the at tributes that go to make first class judge of the higher courts The judi cial mind, the main characteristic ne- cessary in the disposition of the ermine Wearers of this state is said to be very prominent in MT Kellogg's inter- pretation of things legal; a legacy in- herited from his father.

 New York, May 29 lT'he exact terms of acceptance of the PaatI amendment have not been fully understood i'll tine United States, a Tribune Havana de- spatch says, especially since the reyis- ed and modified report was the basis of the constitutional conventions re- cent action. As it stands, the consti- tutional convention has2adopted an ap- pendix to the constitution which it formally adopted in February last. This appendix gives the terms of the Platt amendment and Ia summary in concise form of interviews with Secre- tary Root and his interpretation of the legislation of congress. It also quotes the letter from Military Governor Wood, transmitting the latter from the secretary of war, on the same subject, as having the value of an official docu- ment, and then states article by artiele the conventions Interpretation. All these matters were discussed at the session and much stress was laid on the preciseness with which the Cuban Interpretation is formulated.
 The final article in fhe appendix is q pledge that the republic of Cuba will propose reciprocity treaty Conner cial interests, it is understood, are high ly gratified that this pledge is incor- porated into the acceptance of the Platt amendment.
