actly six weeks. In that struggle the

GREENE-GAYNoR CASE.
Old Hafeas rorpus Writs Quashad. Argu-
meats to be Lizard on New Proceedings.
(By the ..-csociated Press.)

(By the .t~sociated Press.)
Quebec, June 21.-Thcre were many
moves and counter moves today in the
legal fight between attorneys for Col
Gayner and Capt. Greene, the two Am
orleans who are wanted in Savannah,
Ga, for alleged frauds in connection
with harbor work and attorneys repre-
senting the United States Government
who are trying to secure their extradi-
ton. The net result of it all is that
Gaynor and Greene were tonight return
ed to their comfortable quarters in the
Quebec Jail for eight days, when argu-
ments will be heard on new habeas cor
pus proceedings.
The attorneys for the United States
scored a temporary success today when
Judge Andrews handed down a decision
rejecting the petitions for writs of GER
tiorari, quashing the writs of habeas
corpus and ordering Sheriff Langelier
to take Greene and Gaynor back to Mon
treal, where the extradition proceedings
were to be resumed.
Sheriff Langelier announced this even
ing that he would leave tonight for
Montreal.
The order given by Judge Andrews was
that Sheriff Langelier was to deliver his
prisoners to Mr. Vallee, jailer of Mon
treal, but tonight the latter arrived in
town on instructions of Mr.. McMaster,
counsel for the United States Govern
ment, who yesterday wrote Mr. Vallee
to be in Quebec today in case Gaynor
and Greene were remanded back to Mon
treal by Judge Andrews. Immediately on
arrival Mr. Vallee, accompanied by
Capt Pennee, chief of the city police,
and Detective Silvain, went to the court
house to take charge of the prisoners
who were brought in from Jail and hand
ed over by Sheriff Langelier to Mr.. VAL
lee. The latter no sooner had them in
charge when Mr.. Taschereau appeared
on the scene with two writS of habeas
corpus issued by Judge Caron this even
ing ordering Jailer Vallee to hand the
prisoners over to Sheriff Langelier. The
latter Immediately took the men in
charge and on the order of Judge Caron
both were remanded to Jail for eight
days. 1t is expected that the prosecu-
tion will again take proceedings on Mon
day next to have Judge Andrews order
obeyed. In rendering judgment today
Judge Andrews remarked that he consid-
cred it his duty to say that sitting as
Judge he did not recognize but distinctly
denied the right of any other judge to
interfere in the matter until the men
had passed from his hands and that until
then no other judge had the power to
interfere with the prisoners. This is the
reason that the accused applied to an
other judge this evening.

Syracuse half length back. The Itha-
cons had plainly settled into their pace
and were rowing at thirty-two.
Over the next half mile Cornell began
to make up what she had lost. Little
by little the Ithacans pulled away from
Wisconsin until they were leading by a
full length.
The Badgers were still ready to bet
that they would win the race, and their
hopes leaped up again as their crews,
rowing at two point lower per minute,
passed the two mile flag with Cornell
about seven-eighths of a length to the
good.
At the three mile flag the race seemed
to be over, for Cornell was now two
lengths ahead. But the Badgers were
not yet whipped. Once more they spurt-
ed, and once more they cut down Cor
nell's lead by quarter of a length be-
fore the Ithacans had gained the three
and half mile flag. There was more
power, however, left in the Cornell boat,
and the Ithacans simply laughed at the
Badgers. and then let out for the finish.
Cornell finished three good lengths
ahead OF Wisconsin. A length and half
separated the Wisconsin and Columbia
boats while Pennsylvania was nearly two
lengths behind the New Workers and
Syracuse was not more than 10 feet be-
hind Pennsylvania, and Georgetown was
less than a yard behind Syracuse.

(By the Associated Press.)

jefferson, Ia, June 21.-One of the
morst shooting affairs ever witnessed in
this part of Iowa took place early to-
day, resulting from an attempt to arrest
Horace Shipman on a peace warrant.
For some breach of the peace last
evening warrant was sworn out for
Shipman and placed in the hands OF
Marshal John Swearingden for service.
DIR. G. H. Grimmell. Shipman's family
physician, went ahead of the marshal to
attempt to have Shipman surrender
peaceably Shipman agreed to the prop
osition, but when Swearingden and Dep
uty Sheriff Fred Kendall appeared at the
door he warned them not TO come in I'M
der penalty of death.
Sweariinngden, undaunted, started to
pull his revolver for the purpose of en-
tering and Shipman fired load of shot,
striking the marshal in the lower part
of the face, killing him instantly. DIR.
Grimmell and the deputy beat retreat,
leaving the body of the marshal upon
the porch.
Sheriff Anderson Immediately went to
the scene of the shooting, deputizing a
dozen citizens to assist him. Hundreds
OF people gathered near Shipmans home
and for three hours watched the battle.
Five hundred shots were poured into the
large two-story house, Shipman reply
ing from windows, cellarway and door
The fire company was called out and
James May volunteered to put hose in
the cellar and drown Shipman out. May
accomplished his work, but Shipman
fired upon him from the cellar, causing
him to retreat.
About IL o'clock Shipman appeared
at window and fifty shots were fired
at him. 1t then became quiet inside and
Shipmans body was found on the floor
full of bullets.
Only high wind from direction that
would have carried the flames to town

THE CORONATION GAMBLE.
Many Do Not Expect Edward to Live TO be
Crowned Decorating Loudon,
(By the Associated Press.)

London, June 21.--A brisk business was
done this week at Lloyds in the corona
ton gamble. The odds given were 100
to 3 against the event occurring or, to
use the technical expression, the rates
on the risk of the King living until June
26 ruled at per cent premium. Many
thousands of pounds sterling were under
written on this basis.
This shows to what extent public ner-
vousness has grown in certain circles.
Careful investigation shows that there is
no ground for believing that the King S
health is any worse than the official re-
ports indicated. His nerves were rather
upset by the unfortunate illness at
Aldershot and every precaution is being
taken to prevent a recurrence of such a
sudden indsposition.
In the meantime preparations for the
browning hurry on apace. 1t is already
difficult for pedestrians to traverse the
main thoroughfares during the greater
part of the day, and they are almost
impossible at night owing to the crowds
of visitors, with which store clerks,
costers and Londons marvellous floating
population generally mingle nightly as
they wander through the streets, gazing
at the decorations which are now taking
on finished aspect. Such illuminations
festooning and bef1aging as will mark
coronation day, Thursday next, have
never before been seen in London.
Scarcely house along the principal part
of the route of the procession but has
erected an electric or gas device, while
a profusion of gay cloths and flags, in
terspersed with notices and representa-
tions of the royal arms already hide
most of the outer walls. Some of the
streets are already roped with dazzling
festoons of fairy lamps. Even the
abused stands, which for weeks have
made London so hideous with their bare
boards, are now rapidly being draped in
rich purple or other suitable colors.
The United States embassy has joined
in the general jubilation and is erecting
an illumination surmounted by a crown.
Throughout London American firms and
Individuals are not a whit behind the
British in decorating their premises.
Countless stars and stripes will fly out
of the windows on Thursday and Friday
as a welcome to the newly crowned
King. In fact some of the most elabor-
ate displays of the metropolis will be
by American firms doing business here.
