The delays and embarrassments in
the eXtradition proceedings resulted in
Marion Erwin, special assistant to the
attorney general, who has been in act

ings for the United States, transmit
ting to the attorney general, under

tentiOn to the fact that the legal rep
reSentativeS of Greene and Gaynor are
closely connected through professional
cialS to whom this government must
look for eXtradition of the men whose
custody it seeks.
How He Was Handicapped.
Erwin in his report says that prior
TO institutinS the eXtradition proceed
1ngS he was put on notice that the
fugitives had taken refuge at Quebec
for the purpose of resisting eXtradi-
tion. and that they had employed as
their counsel the firms of lawyers to
which belonged the highest officials of
the provincial and Dominion govern
ments." He says that he was thus
precluded by the position taken by
them from comforting with the law
officers of the crown" He therefore
retained two attorneys of the Mont
real and Canadian bar, who have ably
assisted him.
Men Who Are Interested.
The attorneys appearing in the pro-
ceedings for the fuEitives embraced
among others the firm of Fitzpatrick,
Parent, Tadhoreau, Roy * Cannon
of which firm Charles Fitzpatrick
minister of Justice for the Dominion
of Canada; :. y. Parent, prime minis

HOnOre Gervais. law partner of Hon.
Mr.. Archambault, attorney general for
the province of Quebec. and Mr.. Chau-
veau, son of the eXtradition commits
sioner at Quebec, are members. 1t is
practically charged that through their
official connections the laws of Canada
have been played hide and seek with
ever since the proceedings for eXtradi-
ton began, and that many illegal acts
have been committed.

dered Il decision of interest to county

view in every county i'll the state. The
decision was IL perpetual injunction

Chicago Freight Handlers
Decide to Continue
Fight.

Five Already Under Ar
rest Charged With
Murder.

Chicago, July 10.-By unanimous de-
cision the striking freight handlers
this morning voted to refuse the
railroad terms presented last night
and to continue the strike despite the
official refusal of the Chicago Feder-
alton of Labor to help them. Presi-
dent Curran, of the Freight Handlers
union, advocated accepting the terms
offered by the railroads and return
ing to work to await an opportunity
to retaliate upon the teamsters'
union and Chicago Federation of La
Dor. His proposition was entirely
lost in the excitement that followed,
and by standing vote the strikers
not only decided to stay out, but to
fight to the last ditch without seek
ing cooperation or support.
Five striking freight handlers were
arrested today in connection with the
alleged murder last night of John
Landers, a striker who is said to
have been killed during an argument
over the strike.

Seattle. Wash, July 1O.-Ihe pur-
suit of the outlaw Harry Tracey APP
pears to be temporarily suspended.
Sheriff Cudihee has called in the
guards from the southern suburbs,
leaving only sufficient number for
careful patrol. 1t is believed that Cud-
ihee expects the convict, if he reap
pears at all, to show up i'll another
part of the country. The posse that
started from Renton with the blood
hounds Mt Il. III. yesterday returned
at y. III. after fruitleSS search.
Since : Il. IN. the posse had been
securing the country between Renton
and Black Eiver Junction. 1t is be-
lieved that Tracey has hid in the
dense woods. Guards have been sta
toned at every road. He is expected
to soon make his appearance at some
house and demand food, as he is
known to be without supplies. He
found little difficulty in putting the
bloodhounds off his scent, using red
pepper once, and then taking to water.

PHILIPPINE COURTS MARTIAL
About All That Appears To lie Left of the
War in Those Islands.

Manila, July 10.-General Chaffee
Hickman, of the First cavalry, to Ma
Mia for trial by court martial on the
charge of alleged cruelty to natives of
Tayabas province. The charge arises
from the Gardener inquiry. 1t is
claimed that Hickman ducked two ma
tiveS in a stream in order to obtain
information. He is further charged
with having ducked a third native,
who died from maltreatment. The
military officials say that proof of the
latter charge is doubtful.
The court martial, presided over by
General William II. BiSbee, which is
trying Captain James a. Ryan, of the
Fifteenth cavalry. on the charge of
unnecessary severity to natives, will
try Lieutenant Hickman.
The defense in the Ryan court mar
tial closed yesterday. The arguments
will be heard Saturday. The defense
offered much testimony and many doc
umentS to show that state of inSur-
rection existed at JimineZ, AIindanao,
and that Captain Ryan was justified in
using force to obtain information, pro-
tect his command and pursue the en-
emy. 1t was shown that the two ma
tives who were treated communi.
Gated with the enemy, giving informa.
ton regarding the supplies of the
United States forces. Second Lieuten
ant Charles Burnett, of the Fifteenth
cavalry, and Surgeon Major Peter r
Egan testified that they took the same
treatment as administered TO the ma
tiveS. and that they did not suffer
therefrom.

strength, fell to the bottom. For forty
five minutes Clubbs struggled to keep
his head from sinking under the water.
Finally, every one finding it imposSi-
bic to rescue him, the fire department
was called. Four men descended into
the well, and the gas was so strong
tha tthey were forced to turn back.
Edward Floyd, fireman, finally
volunteered to so down after Clubbs.
Around his waist was bound a rope,
and when the men pulled it up both
the rescuer and the rescued were un-

the gas Floyd had time to wrap the
rope around Clubbs. He was soon re-
suScitated. CIubbS is in serious con-
dition and his recovery is doubtful.

Chicago, July 10.-At the meeting
of the striking freight handlers yester-
day afternoon. when the offers made
by the railroads to various committees
were under discussion, President Cur
ran. of the Freight Handlers union
proposed joint conference to be held
later, at which were to be present
managers of the various railroads and
Il representative from each freight
house. On the outcome of this confer
ence the strike will depend. Curran
asserts that if the railroads do not
make arrangements such as the men
will accept he will appeal to the Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, and if that body
should refuse to support the freight
handlers, then the fight will be carried
on independently.
Seemed Hopeful for settlement.
At the meeting of strikers, Job, of
the state board of arbitration, was
present, as We're the executive boards

Sioux City, Ia, July 1O.-The famous

had dedicated to homestead purposes.
The suits were between the home
steaders and persons who had pur-
chased the land from the railroad COM

purchasers. Judge Shiras reverses the
