DEBATE WAS A DRAW.
Absence Of One Of the Judges Resulted in no
Decision in Stanford. Washington Contest.

Stanford University, CAL, May g.
Owing to the absence of one of the judges,
unforeseen by himself, and unexpected
until the eleventh hour by the contes-
tants, the first annual debate between
Stanford and the University of Washing
ton, resulted in a draw. The board of
decision was to have consisted of Judge
w. P. Lawlor, E. 3. Leaning and A. G..
Freeman, all of San Francisco. The two
former gentlemen put in appearance,
but Mr.. freeman was detained at the
last moment. Various expedients as
a means of supplying the deficiency were
suggested, among them the pressing into
service of Stanford professor whom all
should agree upon, but it was finally
deemed best to 60 ahead, trusting to a
possible unanimity of feeling between
Mr.. Leaning and Judge Lawlor.

London, April 3d. United States
Consul General Orborne died at his
residence in Wimbledon at 10 80 o'clock

William Mckinley Osborne was ap-

President Mckinley on March IS, 1897.
Mr.. Osborne had been confined to his
home since November last suffering
from Bright's disease and dropsy, which
latterly affected his heart. He was con-
scious until near the end. The deceased
never had been absolutely we'll since his
arrival in England. He was 60 years Of

Evans May Succeed Him,
Washington. April 3O.-There is a
probability that Commissioner of Pen
sions Evans will be offered the position
Of consul general at London to succeed
William Mckinley Osborne, whose death
was announced yesterday morning.
White House officials are reticent about
the matter, but there is reason to believe
that the president would very much like
to have Mr.. Evans accept it, and the
chances are decidedly in favor of its
being offered him.
