Elk Minister Strauss Views on How

the Affair viii Come Out.
New York. Aug. 23.-Oscar S. Straus,
formerly United States minister to Tur-
key, is Of the opinion that in the pres
ent situation as between France and
Turkey much viii depend upon the atti-
tude OF England, Austria. Roumania
and Greece, with Russia, of course.
the most important factor outside Of
the two principals
THE situation has a very serious
side" said AIr. Straus, 'inasmuch as
the objecting countries, namely Eng
land. Austria, ROumania and Greece
in pursuance of whose protests the sui
tan has taken his present stand, are
morally bound TO side with Turkey I
use the word morally in the ordinary
sense. though I question whether 1T
should be used IN respect to interna-
tional matters"
Mr. Straus said that the prObabili-
ties, however, are all in favor of p
peaceful settlement, though the situa-
tiOn is one Of great seriousness, con-
tanning an element of danger
It was Mr.. Straus who developed the
diplomatic plans by which the sublime
porte was brought to settle the Amer
lean indemnity claims. He believes
that the position of France today is
vastly weaker than that occupied by
the United States then.

officers took up the chase. The muir
derer was tracked over a long stretch
of country.
Several days later Nordstrom, with
a Winchester rife of the same calibre
with which the victim was murdered,
was arrested on the railroad track
near Cedar mountain. He told con-
f1ictIng stories. On trial he was con-
victed. The case was appealed to the
supreme court Of this state, which re-
fused to grant a new trial.
Colonel James Hamilton Lewis be-
came associate counsel in the case. He
fought the case in the federal court on
writ of habeaS corpus. which was
denied. He carried the matter to the
supreme court of the United States
and lost his case. He then went to
the superior court Of King county and
asked for a commission of physicians
to examine into the mental condition OF
NOTdstTOm. This was granted. The
doctors pronounced the man sane,
Lewis demanded a jury trial as to
NOTdstTOm's sanity The superior
court denied this. In the supreme
court of this state Lewis appeal of
this question was OVerTuled Then
Lewis carried this to the supreme
court of the United States and he also
applied to the federal court for a writ
Of babeas corpus on the strength of
the insanity proceedings. The federal
court refused the writ. Lewis carried
this to the supreme court Of the United
States also. He was OverTuled in both
cases.
Since that Lewis has applied to fed
eral and superior courts for stay Of
proceedings AMI been refused. The
entire litigation has taken nine years.
Lewis last night in spite of his an
nouncement the ether day that he had
left the case. was cut of the city LOOK
ing for a writ of prohibition from
some supreme court justice. The gov
erEOr refused to interfere.
