NOT SURPRISED.
Solicitor General Richards Does Not
Seem Much Discouraged.

DuXbury, Mass, Aug. 1.-THE deci-
sion of Judge Caron of Quebec, in re-
leasing benjamin ID. Greene and John
+. Gaynor on a writ of habeas corpus,
both having been held under an appli-
cation for extradition, was shown to
Solicitor General Richards, at his sum-
mer home here, Wednesday afternoon.
He expressed no surprise at the action
which had been taken and said that he
would not at this time enter into a dis
cusSion of the case or express an opin-
ion as to the attitude of Judge Caron.
He would say that if there were any
technical defects in the warrant these
could be easily corrected by the United
States government, and having done
this the government wouldrenew tsef-
forts to get those two men into this
country for trial.
Mr.. Richards said that in his own
mind he had formed an opinion as 10
the standing of the men in the light of
the law. for it had been part of his duty
tt argue the original case. that against
Capt. Carter in its several stages. until
twas before the supreme court. Capt.
Carter has been convicted and imprls-
oned.
When it came to the cases of Greene
and Gaynor, he said. there might be
some question as to the extradition
| under the treaty between the United
States and Great Britain, but if there
was such a question this could be ar
gued He had no reason to believe that
under the treaty Greene and Gaynor
could be eXtradited.
Assistant Gen. Attorney Hoyt, who is
also visiting here, would not comment
on the release of Greene and Gaynor.

AND THE Beers

Three Stages In the British
Officers South African Career
A British officer. writing to relatives
in the United States, just before the
declaration Of peace in South Africa,
said:
awe who have been close to Lord
Kitchener in this tedious struggle
that is. near to him in a physical sense,
for no one gets close enough to him to
get in touch with his th~ought-have OBJ
served three stages or moods in his
South African career
"When he came here, in answer to
questions as to when the war would
be ended. he would say, with conf
dence:
"'When we have whipped the Boers.'
"a year later the same question visi-
bly, annoyed him. and he would answer
shortly:
"'When the Beers learn that they've
been whipped
But lately our commander, whose
face expresses intolerable WEAKNESS,
has changed the form of his reply to
this continuous question and says:

An interesting discovery has been
made at the island of Capri in the
shape ofan underground vault in which
the Emperor Tiberius used to confine
the victims Of his displeasure prior to
their being thrown into the sea. The

those immured subsequently in the

Pull Together!
England alone has twice as many
cotton spindles as there are in this
country. but this will assuredly be
changed in the long run. and the spin
ming of the American crop will be done
at home. The crop. however, increases
faster than the home spindles, and it
will be years before we can drive out
OF this or thar market the goods Of for
eign spinners. The task calls for the
best efforts of New England as well
as of southern manufacturers. Ameri-
can mills should pull together. The
south is content to spin and to weave
the coarser goods. and New England
has a wide field in the making of the
finer forms into which cotton is put

leads in batting has only played in
two games and has been against weak
pitchers. Likewise in fielding, Dwyer,
whose percentage is only 815, is one of
the best and surest infielders on the
team, the errors charged to him, with
the exception of one wild throw being
made IN very difficult chances and
therefore of the excusable kind.
