HAY COMPLAINS OF
CONCHA'S CONDUCT

States with reference to rights on the
isthmus during the construction and aft
er the completion of the canal.
The Colombian government. however.
is unwilling to adhere to it's former en-
gagement with the United States to ac-
cept S7.000.O00 in consideration OF all
concessions to the United States for a
period of fourteen years. The Colom-
bans claim that in revising their origi-
nal estimates they find that these con-
cessicns are worth more than the sum
stated. and while 1t is understood that
they do not ask for any specific in
crease, they hope to secure an addi
tional s3.00O,00O. No payment of rental
for the use of Colombian territory until
after the lapse OF fourteen years will be
asked, however.

JUDGE CLANCY'S CHARGE
7 GETS HIM INTO TROUBLE
Hennessy Brings Suit for
Criminal Libel.
O'FARRELL ALSO ARRESTED
Signed Statements Refuting Clancy's
Affidavit Issued by Hennessy
and Scallin.
O'FARRELL ALSO ARRESTED

BUTTE, Mont, Oct 29.-Judge Will
liam Clancy, OF department of the dis
trict court, and P. A. O'Farrell, the man
in charge of Heinze's paper. the Re
veille,' and his literary bureau, were ar
rested today on charge of criminal
libel because of an affidavit Clancy
made yesterday. and which was publish
ed in the "Reveille."
The affidavit charges that in March,
1899. D. ]. Hennessy had attempted to
corruptly influence Clancy in a decision
of the Boston and Montana receivership
case.
AS soon as the affidavit of Clancy
made its appearance Mr.. Hennessy. who
is at the head of the mercantile business
of the Amalgamated Copper Company,
declared the entire sworn statement of
Clancy was untrue and the libel proceed
ings were begun. Judge Clancy and
IO'Farrell we're arraigned before justice
of the peace and hearing was set for
November Z.
Both Hennessy and William Scallin.
president of the Anaconda Mining Com
pany, are out in signed statements in
reply to the Clancy affidavit. They say
the meeting between Clancy and Mr..
Hennessy, at which the alleged corrup-
ton offers were supposed to have been
made. was brought about through Clan
cy's repeated solicitations for lease on
rich mining property owned by Marcus
Daily, and which the latter refused to
give Judge Clancy because of the fact
that the litigation in question was pend
ing in his court.
1t is explained that Hennessy went to
Judge Clancy to tell him that DAILY
would not give him the lease so long as
the Judge was on the bench and in a
position to pass on the mining litigation
in which he (Daly) was interested.
William Scallin. who was Mr.. Days
confidential attorney at the time, charges
that he was repeatedly solicited by
Judge Clancy for lease, and that
Clancy was as often told that he could
not have it. and that Hennessy's visit
was made at the request of Mr.. Daily to
tell him So

M'COMAS REPLIES TO
RAYNER'S ATTACKS
Says Aspersions of Roose-
welt Need No Answer.
Especial to The Washington Times J

BALTIMORE, Nd, Oct. 29.-The GUn-
gressional campaign in Maryland vir-
tually came to a close with the Repub-
lican mass meeting at Music Hall to-
night. Former Postmaster General
Charles Emory Smith and Senator Louis
E. McComas of Maryland were the
speakers. Moses Pels presided over the
meeting.
The speakers were optimistic. They
made a love feast of the meeting. There
was nothing too good for the Republican
party to give the country. Trusts were
not as bad as they are made to appear,
and If they need curbing the Republican
party and President Roosevelt are ca
pable of managing these infant indus
tries.
Smiths speech, and 1t bristled with sta,
tistics as to bank clearings and foreign
trade. The late President Mckinley was
glorified as being responsible for the
party was forgotten. There was no mud
singing.
The meeting felt that 1t was up to
Senator McComas 10 reply to the at
tacks Of Isidor Rayner and ex- Governor
Whyte at the Democratic meeting ear
lier in the week. The Senator evidently
felt so. too. for he let fire In no uncr>
tain manner, particularly at Mr.. Ray
ner. He said:
When Mr.. Rayner calls our young
President-honored the world over
a political acrobat, who has made his
country ashamed at home and a dis
grace in the eyes of the world, what
need l answer? You all know how the
whole world admires Roosevelt, and
next Tuesday the people of this city
who love their Government will answer
this vulgar abuse of the head of their
Government at the polls.
The man who asperses Roosevelt's
courage cannot gather any laurels from
the American people. No Republican
need answer: every chivalrous Demo-
crat will give 1t the lie."

Clarks faction of the Democratic party
August Heinze. when the supreme court
this afternoon by unanimous decision
declared the Clark Democratic ticket,
and not the Heinze ticket. as decreed by
the county clerk of Silver Bow county
(Butte), should have the column of the
official sallot headed Democratic"
The court held that the action of the
State convention in recognizing the con-
testing Clark delegation from Butte was
prima facie evidence that the party rec
ognized Clark, and not Heinze, as it's
leader, and made its decision accord
ingly.

PROSECUTION RESTS CASE
Court Rules Against Reading Former
Testimony Of Witnesses at the

NEW YORK, Oct 29.-The prosecu-

ing one or two minor witnesses and

read at the present trial.
The decision of the court was blow

the reading of the first trial evidence, as
every effort to secure the attendance of
these highly important witnesses had
failed. The decision of the court makes
useless the testimony of Eugene Err

gen store, in Newark, who testified that
he wrapped up the bottle holder in
which the bottle containing the poison
was sent to- Cornish between 1870 and

written.
Ex-Governor Black announced tonight
that he would make tomorrow the US

Former Minister to Haiti Believes Sc

EFFECT ON NORTHERN VOTE

| John s. Durham, of Philadelphia, for.
merly United States Minister to Haiti
called on the President yesterday for .he
purpose Of discussing political issues
Mr.. Durham has been an earnest party
worker, and has been looking into the
much-talked-of lilly white" movement
In the South and its effect on the
Northern colored vote. The latter phase
Of the matter was one OF the questions
which Mr.. Durham wished to bring %
the Presidents attention.
With this end in view the former Dip
lcmat made two calls at the temporary
White House yesterday. The first was
shortly before noon, when he found the
President occupied with several delega-
tions and individuals seeking appoint
ments. Later In the day, after the Pres
idents return from his daily outing.
Mr.. Durham was received by appoint
ment.
To Influence Northern Negroes.
When asked about the lilly white"
movement, and whether 1t would have
any effect upon the elections this fall.
Mr.. Durham said:
THAT was one of the matters which I
desired to elaborate on to the President
but his time is so thoroughly occupied
that l could not tell him all that
wanted to. From my personal investi-
cations I believe that the greatest re-
ctylfo fror, tho sIiIy, x,,hyto, n cottottoc ~
taking negro votes away from the Re-
publican party. are expected, not so
much in the South as in the North.
II have been looking into conditions
both in the North and South, and think
that the negroes Of the latter section
know that the President has no wish
whatever to crowd them out of the
party. But, on the other hand, IT is
sufficient to say that the Presidents at
titude has been misrepresented, or else
not fully understood by many of the COL
ored people Of the North.
Secret Work in New York.
There is note of warning in the
quiet activity of the Democrats in GER
tain Northern States. and efforts are be-
ing made to swing sufficiently large
negro vote In New York, together with
other influences. to defeat Odell There
are 5000 negro Democrats in New York
city. They are active in the propaganda,
and are counting to drawing to Coler
many others Of their race.
.''In Philadelphia the same conditions
are beginning to. appear, but not with |
such ominous possibilities to the Re- |
publican State ticket as the New York |
negro voters are secretly predicting. 1t |
seems certain that the Presidents at
titude toward the colored race in the |
South has been misrepresented for par
tisan reasons.
What the Negroes Ask.
"All that the negroes ask is equal
treatment in all the States, and not one
thing in New York and another In Ala
bama. II it is desired to eliminate illit-
crates. let that be done everywhere. but
not in one section. The misrepresenta-
ton of the Presidents real attitude Is
believe, but whether 1t will
count for much or not depends upon how
many people can be fooled by these
devices"

TO CALL EXTRA SESSION
If ADD|CKS|TES WIN
Governor HUM Will Decide
After Election.

DOVER, Del, Oct Ex-Governor HUM
has not yet abandoned his project to call
together in extraordinary session the
Delaware Legislature to elect two United
States Senators to fill Delaware's va
cancies.
1t is understood that should the Re-
publicans elect majority Of the assem-
blymen to be voted for next Tuesday,
giving them majority on joint ballot,
outside of Senator Ellison. who absolute
ly refused to vote for J. Edward Addicks
for Senator, the governor will issue his
call for an extraordinary session on the
Saturday following election day.
Could Attend This Session.
The two Senators, If elected, could ar
range to attend Congress at the opening
session in December and seek qualifica-
tion as members of the upper house.
The Democrats in all the doubtful dis
consolidated, confident and courageous.
Even in the Addicks districts they are
nerving each other on to victory.
Throughout both counties the lines are
distinctively between the Democrats and
the Addicksites, there being not dis
trict where an independent or regular
Republican can be elected without the
solid Democratic support against the Re-
publicans.
To Play Same Game.
The Democrats intend to warn their
voters assistants to watch for attempts
at bribery, and to beat the Union Re-
publicans, who passed the voters assist
ants law, at their own game OF using the
Union Republican assistants to see to
the delivery of the goods" behind the
screen of the voting booth.
At Union Republican headquarters in
Dover tonight after the meeting of their
campaign committee all seemed jubi-
liant. The declaration was made that
Addicks would then get all three sena-
tors from Sussex county. Candidate
Moore has been assured of enough votes
to elect him. This would. of course, give
them by their figures the necessary
twenty seven assemblymen.
Final meetings are being held all over
lower Delaware.
