the urgency deficiency appropriation bill,
which contained, among many other inn
vision appropriating 100000 for that pur-
pose. a larger amount was also appropri-
ated for the use OF the attorney general in
fighting the trusts. / do not believe the

House is opposed 10 any movement I'm that
direction as long as the condition of the
country remains as satisfactory as IL now
Is. This question will undoubtedly be held
in reserve for the Fifty-eighth Congress.

that will be settled amicably and diplomat

be involved In the controversy in any way"
What do you think about the reported

I'm the trial OF Matthew Alexander reached
a verdict for the death penalty on the first
ballot at $50 o'clock this afternoon, but

Is. the date set by Judge Piety for the ex-
ecution.
The judge and the sheriff thought they
were justified in taking advantage of the
Lynch law to get the prisoner out OF town
earlier than the two weeks allowed by an
other law before the clerk can make out
the warrant. The strain of guarding Alex
ander since he was brought from Indian
apolis has been heavy and all concerned
wanted relief.

was present with her baby, born since the
father was killed. She thanked each of the
Jurors, who fled past her after being dis
charged by the court.
The greater part of the day was taken up
with the arguments, two for the State
and two for the defense The latter did not
ask for acquittal. The point was made
that the State had not proved that Alex
ander had been guilty of premeditated MUIR

O. ID. Wetherell's Suit Against a Life
Insurance Company.

CHICAGO, Dec. 19.-Oscar d. Wetherell,
formerly city controller, has filed a bill in
the Circuit Court in which the National
Life Insurance Company of the United
States and its treasurer. Albert NJ. john
son, are made defendants. He seeks to
have alleged conveyances involving prop
erty which he asserts was valued at half
a million dollars, set aside and asks for
an accounting. Mr.. Wetherells bill re-
cites that on Oct. Is last, while he was at
Tampa, Fla, Albert Johnson induced him
to transfer the property to him, that the
former controllers financial affairs might
be more speedily Strengthened of some
tangles that had come up. Mr. Wetherell
adds that at the time he was in an en-
feebled physical and mental condition, and
declares that the transfer was made with
out his receiving any consideration.
Mr.. Wetherell, who was formerly pres-
dent of the National Life, further asserts
that Mr.. Johnson promised to return the
securities upon demand, but since then, he
asserts, the treasurer has made color
able conveyance of the properties involved
to the National Life Insurance Company
of the United States, and he asks for an
injunction to prevent any transfer of the
property. He also asks for a receiver for
the property.
Treasurer Johnson said tonight: "Mr
Wetherell had the property heavily mort
gagged 10 the National Life Insurance Com
pany and L had him turn it over to save
him the cost of foreclosure. The figures
in the bill are fancy"

GERMANS WE'RE IN A HURRY.
Gave Captain Of a Venezuelan ship
Ten Minutes To Leave.

CARACAS. Dec. 19.-when the German
cruiser Fake captured the Venezuelan
schooner Victoria yesterday in the Gulf of
Maracaibo the captain of the vessel was
given ten minutes to leave his ship. very
heavy sea was running at the time and the
small boat in which the Venezuelans dis
embarked was nearly capsized. AS IL was.
one of the schooner's crew was drowned.
1t has been learned that the captain of the
Victoria was not aware of Venezuela's diff
ficulties with Germany AM Great Britain.
1t is argued that Germany has no claim
against Venezuela for corporal offenses
committed against German subjects, but
that the imperial claims are financial only.
The Victoria was found to-day a wreck on
the shore.
The Venezuelan government has received
information from Washington that its pro-
posals for the arbitration or the adjust
ment of the British, German and Italian
difficulties have been transmitted by Secre-
tary Hay to the governments In question.
Answers to these proposals cannot be ex-
pected before tomorrow.
The Venezuelan people restlessly
waiting the replies from the powers. They
cannot understand that their country, after
having raised and armed 5000 men, who
have not mad chance to fight, should be
reduced to accept the arbitration any
other method of settlement.
