THEY ARE IN NO DANGER.
Fighters Kept Their Promise to the
Magistrate.

Philadelphia, Jan. 17.-Tom Sharkey
and Peter Maher. the pugilists, and
James H. Mcfarland, an official of the
Industrial Athletic Club, under the
auspices of which organization the
Sharkey- Maher fight took place to-
night, were arrested late this after
noon on warrants charging them with
conspiracy to commit a breach of the
peace. They were held in $4,000 bail
to keep the peace and appear in court
tomorrow morning. Bail was fur
nished.
The warrants were sworn out by J.
d. Barnitz, citizen, who, it is under
stood, represented the Law and Order
Society of this city. More than a dozen
witnesses were subpoenaed, most of
them sporting writer's on Philadelphia
and New York papers. About half a
dozen of the witnesses were exam
ined, and the magistrate considered
that sufficient evidence was elected to
warrant him in holding the prisoners.
The men promised that there would
be no Knockout, no violence and no
infracton of the state laws regarding
prize fights, and that they would en-
gage only in a sparring contest. This
promise was accepted by the magis-
trate and the bail was fixed at $1,000
for the three men. If they lived up
to the promise they will be discharged
on their appearance in court to-mor-
row morning.

PEACE PREVAILS AT PAN.
AND SPREADS HER WINGS OVER
ARBITRATION VICTORY.

Delegate Buchanan Paves the Way
for Chile TO Cease Her WrangIe
and Get i'm Line With the other
DeIcGs tions-Both the Compulsory
Plan and The Hague Agreement
Adopted-Both Cbilians and Peru
VANS Profess Themselves Salts
fed With Result.
Mexico City, Jan. 1.-THE atmos-
phere of the american Conference
was suddenly cleared this morning and
in the midst of excellent feeling on
all sides, both the plan of compulsory
arbitration and The Hague agreement
passed through the conference. w. /.
Buchanan, OF the United States dele
CATION, afforded a means whereby, in
spite of yesterdays discussion both Ec-
uador and Chile might adhere to The
Hague convention, proposing that the
minutes of the last two sessions show
ing the feelings of Chile with regard
to arbitration should form part Gas
anneXes) of the protocol whereby the
nations represented at the conference
express their acceptance of The Hague
convention. In making this motion
Mr.. Buchanan said in part:
Il respectfully request the chair in
the name of the delega tons who sign
the protocol and with the consent of
the distinguished delegation of Chile
and that of Ecuador to transmit with
said protocols the minutes of the two
past days referred to in order that the
protocol and the said minutes shall be
communicated to the Minister of For
elgn Affairs of Mexico in the form and
manner expressed by said protocol, re-
questing said ministry, in addition, that
these documents be communicated to
the respective governments represent
ed in this conference as an expression
of the general adherence to the con-
ventions of The Hague and that those
explanatory remarks shall also be for
warded to said ministry"
Cordial relations between the Chill
cans and the Mexicans have been re-
stored and the Walker Martinez incl
dent has been closed satisfactorily to
all concerned.
Emilio Bell Cedecidn. Minister of
Chile to Mexico and delegate of his
country to the Pan-American Confer
ence, said to-day:
The Chilean delegates are satisfied
with the result of the arbitration oues-
ton in the conference, but they main
tanned in a long, interesting debate
that the conference ought to declare it.
SELF IN favor of The Hague convention
lnasmuch as the acceptance of those
conventions commanded the unani-
NOUS approval of the republics Of
America"
Now that the arbitration has been
disposed of the conference will hasten
the work that is still before it and It
is thought will be able to close it's SEES
sion in one week or ten days.
The Peruvian delegates express them
selves as in general satisfied with the
solution of the arbitration difficulty
1t is claimed that the Peruvians and
allies have won great diplomatic vic
tory by obtaining admittance into the
conference of their compulsory plan.

Brunswick, Ga, Jan. 17.-About II
o'clock this morning a colored boy
found a one-month old baby snugly
wrapped up and bundled away in a
basket that was left sitting on the
ground behind the Episcopal Church.
The little one had been carefully
wrapped by its mother and left so
that the cold would not hurt il. while
there was also a good chance that
some passerby would discover the
basket and it's human burden of In
fantile flesh and bones. The baby
was taken to police headquarters and
there turned over to a competent coll
ored nurse. while efforts are being
made by the' department to discover
who left the baby behind the sacred
editice. So far no clue has been OBJ
tanned to the child's identity, and it
is considered probable from the evf-

SOUTH SCRANTON NOTES.
Number of Boys Arrested, Charged
with Selling Sleds-Peter Hughes
Injured in the Mines.

Fred Rorick, Michael Handley, Leo
Ryan, James Gallagher. and James
Burke We're arrested yesterday on
charges preferred by Matthias Stipp,
and James Tigue,. Michael Hayes,
Charles Reilly, Edward Lewis and
Walter Ryan We're also arrested on in
formation sworn to by Colonel Os-
thaus, for stealing sleds and larceny
committed at various times during the
past winter.
1t appears that for some time past,
sleds owned by residents of Sanderson
Hill, including Messrs. Stipp, Osthaus,
Archibald, Scranton, Boies and Allen,
have mysteriously disappeared, and it
was believed that a gang of young
pilferers We're engaged in stealing the
articles and disposing of them TO
others. On this presumption, search
warrants We're issued and eleven sleds
in all were traced to the boys homes
or were found in the possession OF
those who had purchased them.
The entire gang We're rounded up by
Constable Woelkers and at a hearing
before Alderman Lentes last evening
pleaded guilty. Messrs Osthaus and
Stipp We're present at the hearing, as
were the parents of the boys, and after
the evidence was all in, it was agreed
to drop the matter, on condition that
the sleds were returned and all costs
paid today.
On this arrangement, the young pill
ferers We're allowed to go, after listen
ing to a severe lecture by the alder
man, who informed them that if
any other case was ever brought
against them, they would get the full
extent of the law.
