Denver" Ed. Smith Will Concede
Start Next Saturday.

The conditions of Saturdays pedes-
trian contest have been changed some
what. The original agreement was for
Smith to run a mile while Ayres walk
ed the same distance. Yesterday Den

stage of the mile. By the original
agreement if Smith quit running he
forfeited the match.
Ayres' friends did not take kindly to
the change. but after some talk, a
compromise was effected. AS matters
now stand Ayres is to walk a mile with
a start of 200 yards. while Smith is at
liberty to go as he pleases for the full
1,760 yards.
1t is understood that the Australian
walker, Cooper, will challenge the Win
ner of Saturdays race to five or ten
miles contest.

at the Advertiser office last night and
stated his willingness to do business
With any of the local pedestrians at any
distance in two weeks time. He did
not want to have his name published,
however, until he is ready to make a
match He is well known as an old
time pedestrian throughout the states,
as well as in the old country and Aus
traIia Both he and Cooper are pona
fide amateurs.

WHERE ABOUT FIVE MILLIONS.
Inhabitants of Islands to Vote on
Cession, and They Are Expected
to Ratify the Treaty.

! WASHINGTON, Jan. H.-The treaty of
cession of the Danish West India islands
from Denmark to the United States was
signed at the State Department to-day by
Secretary Hay and Constantine Brun, the
Danish minister. The treaty will be sub
mitted to the Senate for ratification i'm
mediately.
Following the invariable rule in such
cases, the State Department officials de-
cline to make public any of the details
OF the treaty, so that it is not possible to
state positively the price to be paid, though
this is believed to be in the neighborhood
of s5.OO0.OO0. The new treaty is peculiar in
that IL will require action, not only by
the Senate and the Danish Rigsdag. but
by the United States House of Represent
atives as we'll, since it will be necessary
for the House to supply the needed appro-
priation to defray the expenses of pur-
chase 1t is regarded as a strong point
by the trainers of the treaty that the peo-
pie of the Danish West Indian islands are
TO have voice in this question of cession.
The treaty itself does not contain any ref
erence to plebiscite. but the Danish gov
ernment has given notice that before IL
ra titles the treaty 1t will submit the ques-
tion of cession to the people of the islands.
Not much objection Is expected here from
these people, the treaty is framed
they are not called on to surrender their
Danish allegiance, and they may remain
Danes in fact and in name while enjoy
ing whatever advantages in a commercial
way may result from transfer of the
islands to the United States. The plebis-
cite will not be controlled in any sense
by the United States 1t is stated dis
tinctly that the Danish government itself
will take steps to ascertain the inclinations
of the people of the islands before the final
steps in the transfer are taken.

He Takes Place on Bench Made Vacant
by Resignation of Judge
Francis L. Baker.
RECOMMENDED BY MANY
JUDGE GILLETT HAS WON APPROVAL
IN LAKE CIRCUIT COURT.
His Leaving 1t Makes 1t Necessary for
Governor Durbin to Appoint
a Successor to Him.

Governor Durbin last evening announced
the appointment of Judge John H. Gillett.
of Hammond, to succeed Judge Francis z.
Baker on the State Supreme Bench. Judge
Baker recently was chosen to be United
States circuit judge, vice William A.
Woods, deceased.
Governor Durbin telegraphed from An
derson to his secretary, Charles z. Wilson:
Notify John II. Gillett, of Hammond. that
1 have appointed him to succeed Judge
Baker on the Supreme Bench"
Mr.. Wilson wired to Judge Gillett: Your
commission as justice of the Supreme
Bench to succeed Judge Baker awaits you
here"
Judge Bakers resignation was made to
take effect to-day and Judge Gillett's COM
mission will be dated to-day. His appoint
ment creates a vacancy in the Lake Cir
cult Court to be filled by the Governor. For
this place there are already several apph-
cations. The matter probably VIII not be
taken up for several days, the Governor
being at his home at Anderson on account
OF illness.
Among the several hundred prominent
men that recommended Judge Gillett for
the appointment were the following: j.

Judge Gillett lives in a handsome home
in a suburb of Hammond. He has wife
and son. Although but forty years old, he
has won wide respect, and some OF his de-
cisions have become celebrated. He refused
to issue an injunction two years ago re-
straining George V. Hankins and other
gamblers from operating a track in
northern Indiana. His reason, given in
his decision, was that, while be believed
that gamblers deserve the pillory he could
not legally issue the injunction. Another
of his decisions was the uncOnstitutionality
of the garnishment law.

MINERS ATTACK A CAR
ONE Is SHOT AND WOUNDED IN A
FIGHT NEAR SEELEYVILLE.
BraziI-Terre Etute. Traction Strike
the Cause of the Affray-Attack-
ing Party to Be Arrested.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Jan. A.-The last
car on the interurban line between this
city and Brazil was attacked by number
of miners in ambush, near Seeleyville,
eight miles east of here, at 7:30 o'clock
this evening, and one miner was shot dur
ing the fight which followed
The miners opened fire from the dark
ness of the fields when the car stopped in
a switch, and broke a number of windows.
The mOtorman, his assistant and the con-
ductor returned the fire, and about forty
five shots were exchanged Guy Higger-
man, a miner, was shot in the thigh, but
not dangerously wounded. Names of men,
bers of the attacking party have been Sc
cured and arrests will follow.
The trouble grew out of the strike con-
ditions The fact that the miners were
paid to-day has something to do with the
affair
