TREATY OF ALLIANCE.
Renewal Of the Drsibund bv the Three
Powers In lts Original Form.

FOWeTs IN tts OHylhal TOrm.
Berlin, July 2.-The treaty provid-
ing for the prolongation of the alliance
between Germany, Austria Hungary
and Italy (the dreibund) has been
signed in Berlin by the imperial chan
cellor, Count Won Bulow; the Austrian
ambassador, l.. Won Szogyeny-M -Marich,
and the Italian ambassador, Count
Lansea di Busca. The alliance was
renewed in its original form. Upon
the request of the imperial chancellor,
the text of the new driebund treaty will
be kept secret for the present, and it is
not certain whether its publication
will occur later.
The announcement of tie signing OF
the dreibund did not cause surprise, as
the renewal had been taken as a FORE
gone conclusion since Count Won Bulow
was in conference with the Italian and
Austrian ministers during the Easter
holiday. German officials have never
evinced the slightest concern at the
many reports emanating from Paris and
other diplomatic centers reporting the
prospects OF renewal OF the dreibund
to be gloomy. and they knew all along
that Ilaly's Irritation with France was
not intended to be dsloyalty to her
Teutonic allies.

Kansas City, July 1.-The Star says !;
All the big coal mines in Missouri are
TO be absorbed by a syndicate controlled
BY ]. P. Morgan. The Missouri oper-

mines BY Eastern capitalists was only

Not the Oregon Convict

Whatcom, Wash, July I,-Police-
man Frank Alyord shot man through
the pit of the stomach, inficting a
wound which will prove fatal. The
man gives the name OF Godfrey r.
Campbell, and his home as Black River

shot Campbell, believed at the time
that he was dealing with either Tracy

nouncement of the reward offered for
the men, and are positive that the man
shot is not one Of the escaped Oregon
convicts.
Policeman Alvord oherved gun in
the mans pocket while he was walking
on the street, and as he was desperate
looking, after consulting with Officer
Jessup, he determined upon his arrest.
The man turned into side street, fol-
lowed by Alvord, who requested him to
halt. The stranger replied, "Not by a

fired, the ball striking the man in the
pit of the stomach, passing clear

fight with the officer. Officer Jessup,
who had come to his brother officer
assistance, and a large number OF by
ISLANDERS who were trying to render the
officers aid, we're fully five minutes in
subduing the man. A dozen blows from
a policeman's club, succeeded in crack

Court Martial Found General JAeab II. Smith

Guilty Of Violating Rules OF War.
Washington, July 2.-Tt is an
nounced by the war department that
the case of General Jacob II. Smith will
not be acted upon before the end OF the
present week, at the earliest. Judge
Advocate General Davis, has completed
his review of the proceedings of the
court martial and the papers are now
in the haads of Secretary Root, who is
so busy with other matters that he has
not yet had time to give the case the
attention it deserves.
1t has been generally understood that
General Smith was acquitted by the
court, but it transpires that such was
not the case, the court, it is alleged,
having found General Smith guilty OF
violating the rules of war and sem
fenced him to be reprimanded by the
reviewing authority, which, in this
case, is President Roosevelt. Inas-
much as the case is considered strictly
confidential until finally acted upon by
the president, it is impossible to obtain
any official information in regard to it.
