said John X. Sumner to the petitioner
herein and upon the agreement and
understanding between the said John
X. Sumner and the said Victoria Ell
lis Buffandeau, William S. Ellis and
John S. Ellis, and each of them, that
the consideration for the payment to
them of the sum of 100000 each was
the release and acquaintance by them
and each of them of all their right,
title and interest in and to the proper
ty of the said John X. Sumner, under
and by virtue of the said Trust Deed
as aforesaid"
John X. Summers affidavit in sup
port of the motion says that Mrs. Buff
fandeau and William S. Ellis took him
to the office of Humphreys, where he
was introduced to Henry e. Highton
with the words "This is your lawyer"
This was on the day that Sumner got
here from Tahiti He signed a paper
made by Highton, and as he left the
office Ellis came and asked for 800 as
an attorneys fee. He had not it with
him. but eventually paid $500.
Shortly after, Sumner says, he was
informed by Mrs. Buffandeau that she
had engaged Humphreys for him; that
Humphreys was then on the bench but
would soon leave it in few days. Ell
lis also told him that Humphreys was
his lawyer. Humphreys and Thompson
and Highton acted for him all the time,
says the old man.
Summer says that he finally agreed
to give $4,000 to each of the heirs, on
condition that the trust should termin-
ate and he should be allowed to go free
with the rest of his money. 1t was un-
derstood that Highton was to get $1,000
for his services, and, says Sumner
Humphreys, Thompson and Watson
81, 500 for their work in all his cases,
and then 1 paid Humphreys, Thompson
& Watson $500. 1 understood that
Humphreys, Thompson and Watson
would work for me in all cases anC
clear me of all trouble" The affidavit
says that Humphreys, Thompson 8
Watson know all about Summers bust
ness, that they have been my lawyer!
and have acted for me at the time o.
the payment of $4,000 each to Mrs
Buffendeau, Willie Ellis and John Ell
lis, and the circumstances of that pay
ment is now in question in this case, ant
Humphreys, Thompson & watson ar
now working against me and working
for Mrs. Buffandeau, Willie Ellis AM
John Ellis, whose interests are agains
mine in this case
E. c. Peters swears to a similar stat
of affairs, declaring that Humphreys
Thompson & Watson took active par
in getting the $4O,O 900 that was distrib
uted and that the lawyers procured
for Sumner a release from Maria 5
Davis when she got her $4,000, b,
which she agreed not to further inter
fere with him, while they secured m
such release from Victoria Ellis But
fandeau, William S. Ellis or John Ellis
but instead acted in the interests o
the latter, while protesting to act TO
Sumner and protect him.

Paris, May 12-Even now, when full
er details of the Martinique disaster
are arriving, the Parisians show few
outward signs of interest in the affair.
From the appearance of the streets,
where the people are thronging. the
cafes and other places of public resort.
it would never be supposed that half
of one of Frances most flourishing
colonies had been wiped out of exis-
tence.
A small crowd gathers daily at the
ministry Of the colonies waiting for
the bulletins which are posted as the
West Indian dispatches arrive This
crowd is composed of natives of Mar
Unique, a number of whom are at
tending the government schools here,
reporters in quest of news and women
with relatives at st. Pierre.
The only signs of public mourning
are the half-masted flags over the gov
eminent buildings. The people present
their usual Sunday holiday making
appearance.
The Temps in an editorial this morn
ing remarks that so many matters of
public interest have occurred this
week, railroad accidents, the disaster
in Martinique, a huge swindling case
and the elections, that they neutralize
each other, while had they come sing

Dallas, Tex, May 1.-THE four days

INST passed, were occupied principally
nv preliminaries. The determined eff

Grafton of the WAR claim" matter
rather retarded progress toward a set
Element of other issues to come before
the conference. According to those
we'll versed in the inner workings of

They are the election of two new bish-

claim; the election of missionary
bishop; church insurance and the ques-
tion of deaconesses. Two of the sub

were touched on during the past week,
but the final struggle over their settle
ment is yet to come.
Dr. L. E. Moss, editor of the Chris

church, published at Nashville, is con-
ceded to have the best chance for cleo

The introduction by a Virginia dele

to think its adoption in some form

with the collection of the war claim
