fense, secured permission to introduce the
witness Henry Broughton, who ran away
and was recaptured Broughton told Of
going to Frankfort at the instance of Pow
ers and others with the mountain army
January 25 1900. After arriving at Frank
fort he met Powers, and the defendant
asked him to give him the names of several
men. one of whom could be relied on to
do the killing or to do the work.
He gave Powers the names of Frank
Cecil, Zach Steele and Anthony Broughton
as good men to do shooting Witness re-
turned home the same day he went to
Frankfort, and did not go there again.
He said he expressed pleasure on learning
that Goebel had been killed. The defense
laid the foundation for contradicting
Broughton. and also to show that on Janu-
ary ., 1900. witness was drunk and not re-
spOnsible.

University of Copenhagen, all members OF
the international arbitration committee, to
be arbitrators in the case between Vene.
zuela and Great Britain, Germany and,
Italy in their claims for preferential treat
ment.
Result of Energetic Action.
The appointments were the result Of enc
ergetic action recently taken by Ambassa-
dor Choate and Mr.. MacVeagh to induce
Great Britain. Germany and Italy to re-
quest Russia to name arbitrators.
Venezuela made this request Immediately
after the signing Of the protocol, but, aa
the other powers had not made requests
it seemed likely that the case would fail
to be heard on September /.
Last week the State Department author
ized Mr.. MacVeagh to cooperate with AM
bassador Choate in his negotiations with
the British foreign office, and Mr.. Mac
and had conferences with Foreign Secre-
tary LanSdowne.

Several letters on the subject were also
exchanged bringing out the desirability OK
not having the arbitration fail on Septen-
Der /.

to the czar who Immediately made the ap-
pointments.
Mr. MacVeagh will be joined here by
Judge Penfield and Minister Bowen and
will proceed with them, to The Hague.

interest in the matter IS shown in his Sc
lection of the Russian minister of justice.

The selections are specially notable. as
the czar was restricted by the protocol to
countries which are disntefested, thus
eliminating selections from Great Britain,
Germany, Italy, the United States, France,
Mexico, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands
and Sweden and Norway. all of which are
interested in the issue before the court.
The residence of the arbitrators at st.
Petersburg, Paris and Copenhagen gives
strong belief that they viii be able to as
sembIe quickly at The Hague for the OPEN
ing of the case on September !.
