DIAMOND BACK
TERRAPlN.
Trenton, N. j., March 25.,

terrapin caused South Jersey to
be agitated today. Governor Mr-
ply has New Jersey at his feet in
an argr ment whether to issue en-
tradition papers which will send
six Jersey fishermen to Delaware
to undergo trial.
Before acting the Governor re-
ceived a petition signed by the
rieaaing residents OF Cedaryillc,
requesting that he refuse the re-
quest Of the Delaware authorities
while on the other side the officers
Of the law argue that the follow
ing Jerseyites have violated the
Delaware statutes and should be
delivered to them for justice:W. S.
Moore, Raymond Moore, L. b.
Newcomb, Horace Blizzard, of
Cedarville, and Alfred Bradford,
and John Bass, OF Newport.
The history Of this "Terrapin
Case" is known to every one in
South Jersey. In April, 1901,
Moore and his son Raymond
caught several terrapins on the
Delaware shore for a friend who
was ill. Having Il surplus, they
disposed OF them to Carl Newcomb
who started II terrapin farm. The
Moores say they knew nothing OF
a clause IN the Delaware statutas
which says that only Delaware
residents are allowed to catch
these creatures within her State
boundary. Nevertheless it leak
ed out, and Fred Conner, the
county game warden, was sent by
The State Fisl, and Game Commits
sion to investigate the case.

lNewcombs little industry and
caused his arrest In the trial
which followed the jury disagreed
after being ont thirty hours. And
lit was during this hearing that
the Moores, Blizzard, Bradford
and Bass becam, involved by tes-
Itifying that they, too, had frequent
'ly caught the elusive terrapin in
the Delaware, ignorant OF the law.
Sheriff Reedy. OF Kent county,
delaware, who was present,
promptly swore out u warrant for
their arrest, and the sextette enter
ed bail.
Newcomh has added another
chapter to the case by bringing II,
cross suit against Messrs. Conner

his property, which suit is now
pending i'll the Supreme Court,
awaiting Governor Murphy's de-
cision.

CHANDLER WOULD RELIEVE
PRESIDENT OF MANY DUTIES

Washington. Jan. G-The Washing
ton Post prints an interesting article
by ex-senator William H. Chandler,
president of the Spanish Claims Com
mission, entitled. "Wanted, by the
United States. n President" The article
is strong argument hDr reform in
the present methods OF conducting ex-
ceutive business.
Mr. Chandler asserts that president
has now only three objects in his life
first, to see 10000 people n year; sec
ond. to accomplish 1000 little things,
and third, to try to do 200 great things.
In the seeing of so many thousand peo-
pie about trivial matters, and in giving
his attention to the thousands Of lit
tie things, the President, Mr. Chandler
insists, is worn out and becomes
physically unable to grapple with the
great problems to which ne ought to
give his undivided attention.
Mr. Chandler cites from personal
knowledge the cases of presidents who
have almost succumbed under the
strain. instanclng particularly Prsi-
dent Arthur, in whose Cabinet he was

PANAMA CANAL FORMALLY
OFFERED FOR $4,000, 900

Washington, Jan. 5.-A formal prop
osition to sell the Panama canal prop
critics TO the United States for $4O-
100000 WAS yesterday submitted to the
authorities here. Ii was made by NJ.
Bouefve. representing the company, to
Admiral Walker as chairman Of the
lsthmian Canal Commission. NJ
Bouefve acted under cable instruc-
tions from the Panama canal officials
at Paris. Admiral Walker Mt once
brought the proposition to the knowl-
edge Of the secretary of state and the
President.
The submission of this offer carries
out plan which has been under con-
sideration for the last two weeks. The
first step was taken when NJ. Hutin
retired from the presidency of the
Panama Canal Company. This brought
about an entire change in the manage
ment, the main feature of the change
being that those in authority desired to
make definite offer of the Panama
properties to this government for $4O,-
100000. There have been numerous
meetings at Paris with this end In
view, but the one which brought about
the final proposition was held yester-
day. 1t had been the intention to
make the offer through Edward Lam
pre-, secretary general of the company,
who is due to arrive at New York to-
morrow: but the meeting appears to
have taken 4 view that the offer

sh1nla - made without waiting for
the arrival OF MIR. Lampre. According
ly the cable instructions were forward
ed 10 M. Bouefve. He went at once to
the Office Of the Isthmian Canal Com
mission and advised Admiral Walker
of the determination of the company
In substance the notification delivered
to Admiral Walker was as follows:
The Panama Canal Company de
clares itself ready to transfer to the
government of the United States, on
payment OF S4O,O0O,OO0, its properties
and concessions, estimated at that
amount by the Isthmian Canal Com
mission. in conformity with the terms
and conditions OF the estimates Of said
commission"
The offer as made to Admiral Walk
er and later communicated to the
President and secretary of state refers
to the estimates of the Isthmian Com
missions report. This feature of the
commissions report appears under the
caption. Total Value OF the Panama
Canal" and it is as follows:
Summing up the foregoing items,
the total value of the property is
found to be: Excavation already done,
81, ,4I4,033; Panama railroad stock at
par, S6,S0OOOO; maps, drawings and
records, $2,OOOOOO. To which add ten
per cent. to cover omissions. making
the total valuation of the Panama ca
nal S40,0OO,0OO."
