HINSEY NOT GUILTY,
Will Be Acquitted on Charge of En-
 bezzling Pythian Funds.

Chicago Jan. 2S.-After twenty-thret sessions a committee of five Past Chan cellors of the Inter-Domain Lodge Knights of Pythias. has unanimously voted to acquit John A. Hinsey of the charges brought against him.
 MT Hinsey is the former head of the insurance department of the Knights of Pythias. Charges of mismanagement and misrepresentation of the department funds were made against him at the meeting of the Supreme Lodge in Chica- go last June. few weeks ago he was tried on criminal charges brought against him before Judge Dunne and acquitted.
 The Supreme Lodge in session at the Lexington Hotel last July announced that d shortage of $500.W0 had been found to the loss had endangered the existence of the department of which he was the head, and sxty-three charges. including embezzlemeut, submitting false reports and misconduct and mismansgement of the insurance department were made.
 Five Past Chancellors of Inter-Domain Lodge, Mccormick. Wright, Davis Phillips and Godding. were appointed to try Hinsey and they began the hearing of evidence last September. At the twenty-third session just concluded, the verdict of acquittal was rendered. The evidence which the defense produced was to the effect that $5OO.O 600 had been loaned on god security and since paid back to the treasury.
 In another paragraph Hinsey was charged with appropriating to his own use $1.72G while he was secretary of a Milwaukee lodge in 1893. and this charge was also disapproved.

SAFE FOUND IN RIVER
ROBBERS WERE UNABLE TO OPEN IT.
No Substantial Clue as to the Identity of the Men Who Held
 up Southern Train
 Near Branchville.

Branchville, S. C., Jan. 2S.-AccordinG to latest advices received here. no sub stantiaI clue has been obtained as to the highwaymen who last night held up a northbound Southern Railway passen- ger train and robbed the express car. five miles north of this place.
 Booty amounting to about Sl3 was secured from the local safe. The through safe could not be opened and was carried bodily away by the men, who after securing it went to the house of negro man named Kearse and impressed his mule and wagon. The party then con yeyed the safe to a point on the Edisto River, some six miles from Fifty-Eight. Failing to open it, they threw the sale into the river where it was fonud this morning.
 Sheriff Dukes of Orangeburg reached the scene of the robbery with his hounds early today, but failed to find any trail from the river, and the party returned to Branchville. The bungling work of the robbers and their want of expert knowledge seem to point to local talent. It Is said that some clues are in the hands of the express officials. but these are not given to the public.
 Governor McSweeney has offered re- ward of $40O for the capture of the rob- bers, and has urged the officers of nearby counties to combine forces for the capture of the robbers. The sheriff of Charleston this morning sent a well armed posse prepared for the chase. The express officials here refuesd today to make any specific statements concerning the amount of money contained in the safe. They stated, however. that the through safe contained less than $500.

A CHANGE OF MASTERS
DANISH WEST INDIES CITIZENS
 ARE WILLING.
It is Said That Four-hfths of the Land Owners are Anxious to Become Subjects of the
 United States.

New York. Jan. 2s.-The special cor respondent of The Tribune at ot. Thomas, Danish West Indies, senos tne following in connection with the pro posed transfer of the island to. the United States:l .s
 .sWhat puzzles the average Danish West Indian more than anything else IS the impression which seems to gam ground in America and elsewhere that ne obiects to the transfer of these islands, and a plebiscite is necessary. Apart from the fact that there was so many different nationalities in the Danish West Indies that 1t would be a matter of great dil- ficulty to arrive at just conclusion m the plebiscite. it may be confidently as- serted that no such wish has been ex- pressed, and if it were possible to take a vote under such circumstances 1t VIII be in favor of the transfer.
 Our people are now looking forward to the change, believing there can be nothing save prosperity for these islands should 1t take place.
 .'There has been a little excitement here the last few days ownig to q rumor that the sale was of" At St. Croixi an offset to the telegram sent to the Finance Minister and the Rigsdag by 146 leading inha JItants, among whom were forty planters representing 10000
  the island, praying for the sale. An op- position list was started. The few property holders that we're overlooked refused to sign 1t, but the officials and a few policemen did so.
 The St. Croix Avis in letter from the rector of the Anglican Church ex- poses the manner in which antisale sigma lures were obtained to a list in Bassin. the otker town. This list was sent by cable to the Prime Minister at Copen- hagen on the 9th inst. It protests against the telegram sent by forty planters and 146 proprietors already alluded to, characterizing them as American capitalists and asks his Excel lency to use his influence to keep St. Croix under the Danish flag under the condition that the mother country will find means to meet the cultivation of sugar which at present finds itself in a most critical position remunerative to this island"
 This was signed by three Danish planters. two merchants and H5 other persons all eminently respectable but not employers of nearly two-thirds of the island laborers. who will shortly be with out employment unless some change takes place. for even the protestants against the sale admit the critical position of the sugar industry. .-

AGAINST THE APPELLANT.
Prediction That Roosevelt Will De- eide Against Admiral SchleY.

New York. Jan. 2S.-The Herald s Washington special says:
 Rear Admiral Schleys appeal to the President will be disposed of adversely to the appellant
 There is, no longer any doubt that MT. Roosevelt will uphold the findings ol the court of inquiry which investigated the conduct of Rear Admiral Schley dur ing the war with Spain. Those who pro- fess special knowledge of the President 8 views, even say that he will pass upon the question of command. and that, while Rear Admiral Schley will receive the commendation due to an officer who participated in the battle, the credit Tor the victory will be awarded to Rear AL miral Sampson.
 It Is the expectation of Rear Admiral Schley that the President will decide this question. In his brief to the Commander in-Chief of the Navy. he devoted speclal attention to this feature Of the contro, Versy quoting to support the lndlVldual findings of Admiral Dewey, portions or the testimony of Captain Clark, who commanded the Oregon; or Enslsn MIG Caulay signal officer of the Brooklyh' and that which he himself gave. .
 In its reply to Admiral Schleys brlei' the Navy Department has given certlt- cate exposition of the command matter It shows that Captain Evans or the loWd' Captain Taylor of the Indiana and Conl- r,ander Wainwright of the Gloucester all declared under oath that their acton quo movement during tho baIlle were ""t controlled in any way hy Rear Admiral Clark stated that he started in for the mouth of Santiago harbor before he saw any signal from the Brooklyn. This ac- ton was under the general squadron or der issued by Rear Admiral sampson;
 CantaIn Clark Is also quoted as saying that the 13-inch guns of the Oregon were fred at the Colon during the fight upon the initiative of his own officers: and not in obedience to any orders from the Brooklyn. though Rear Admiral Schley and Ensign McCauley asserted that such orders were signaled
 Rear Admiral Schley's brief will be made public on Wednesday. The De nartment's reply will be made public on Thursday The action of the President will follow.

DRIVEN FROM HOTEL.
The Lindell of St. Louis Threatened
 hy Flames.

by Flames.
 St. Louis, Jan. 2S.-Two hundred and thirty guests of the Lindell Hotel were driven from their apartments into the sleety strets at 1V o'clocK tonight by . fire which wrecked the adjoining build ing at the corner of Seventh Street and Washington Avenue and for thirty thrill ing minutes threatened 10 sweep away the hotel. Panic stricken. sluaost faint ing women were carried from the upper floors by elevators and down the stair way Mothers with i . nts in their arms groped rnefr WAY Through suffocating smoke.
 Men dragged their trunks after them down the stairways of the hotel and clerks in the office hastily procured ths veluables of the guests from safes and vaults and carried then. to places ot greater safety.
 The structure in which the fire originated was a seven story brick affair known as the O'Neill building. It was an old and innammable structure. A dozen or more firms occupied 1t, of which the largest concern was the l.. Bauman Jewelry Company. The losses suffered by these concerns will approxi- mate $30O.000. The Lindell Hotel was damaged by smoke and water to the ex- tent of $25,000.
 About half an hour after the alarm was given the fire communicated to the roof and top story of the Lindell Hotel and the guests began their exit. Under the direction of proprietor Shaughanessy. the entire force of porters and bell boys were ordered to all floors above the office to assist in carrying out the heavy sample trunks of drummers and large quantity of personal effects remaining in the rooms. Biistered' by the intense heat and driven from their positions. MT. Shaugh- messy and his fire fighters returned again and again to battle with blaze.
 Finally the fire department succeeded in getting half a dozen lines of hose to the upper floors and roof of the hotel where play was made on the flames in the O'Neill building and the hotel was soon out of danger.

ONE LONG OVATION
sCHLEY IS cHEERED FROM CHI
 CA0o TO LOUISVILLE.
The Admirals Hand 'sOut of Busi- ness' from the Hearty Clasps It Has Received-Pro-
 gram for Today.

Louisville, Ky, Jan. 2S.--Rear Ad- miral Schley. who under the chaperonage of the Board of Trade and the Knights Templaxs will be Louisviile's guest until Friday next, arrived here over the Monon Road at 7:15 o'clock this evening.
 He was greeted by an Admirars salute and shouting crowd of many hundreds at the depot. He was escorted to his carriage by the full committee represent ing his hosts and driven to the residence of Marion E. Taylor. president of the Board of Trade. Here the Admiral and Mrs. Schiey spent quiet evening. They met only few people, as the committee had appreciated the liklihood that the Admiral and his wife would be fatiguee upon their arrival.
 The trip from Chicago was one long ovation, and 50 vigorous were some oi the hand-clapps which the distinguished seaman received en route that his right hand was nearly tout of business" as the Admiral explained. He begged the subcommittee of the Louisville Reception Committee which met him at Salem. Ind. to handle 1t with care. It was at this point that F. A. Munger, president Of the Hamilton Club of Chicago. turned the Admiral over to his new entertain CTS.
 The Admiral made no speeches on the trip, although at some of the stops he spoke a few words of greeting. Tele- grams from every station along the line, many of them stating that the schools had been cloesd to allow the children to see the Admiral, were received. They asked that the Admiral appear on the platform. if only for a moment. At many points the best General Superintendent Lowell of the Monon route who was in personal charge of the train could do was to siacken speed. but the passenger for whom all were looking invariably braved the cold to appear and bow. At La Fayette. Ind, he insisted that grimy handed machinists who had rushed from the car shops take his hand.
 Never mind the grease" he said. and the men who had not wished to soil the Admifal's gloves cheere1.
 A public reception and a banquet are on the program for tomorrow. both being under the auspices of the Board of Trade Thursday as the guest of the Knights Tempiars. of which organiza- ton he Is member. the Admiral will attend q reception and ball. Friday he will leave for Nashville. Tenn.
