FENCING" CASE BEING HEARD.
Letter Produced Signed by Farley Say Ing Sarah Black Was Out of Way.

Dertoit, Mich, October S.-The examlna- ton of Edward E. Farlay. the Chicago horseman, on the charge of ringing" the mare Aimless as Sarah Black at the Crosse Point running meeting June 16, was begun in Justice Lemkies court here today
 The prosecution created something of sensation by introducing two letters to Billy O'Hara of Cincinnati, signed Ed F. Farley, which it was stated were seized by the Cincinnati police during a raid on the o'Hara Turf Speculation syndicate offices in that city.
 In one of the letters written at New Orleans in March 1902 it was stated that mare had been secured that could go three quarters of a mile in 1:131k and that she looked like Sarah Black; that Sarah Black had been put out of the way, and that this mare could be entered as Sarah Black at the Robey track and a big kill ing made at the expense of Bookmakers Waller and O'Leary
 The second letter written from Little Rock stated that the mare was sick with fever and that it would be impossible to ship her for some time Both letters con- tained injunctions to the receiver to be sure and destroy them. From the oues- tlons asked by Farleys attorney the opin- ion was created that in the upper court, if Farley is held for trial an attempt will be made to show that the entire insti- tuition of gambling on horse races is con- trary to the law of the state, and hence. not entitled to protection
 Jockey Romanelli testified that he rode the mare June 16 and that there was noth- ing suspicious about the race. He said Farley simply pointed out to him the bad places and the good places at the head of the stretch and told him to win if he could
 Nernil Hughes, a Nebraska horse own CT, testified that he knew the mare Aim less very well, and that he was in the grandstand at Crosse Point June 16 and recognized Aimless when the horses went to the post. He saw that she was entered as Sarah Black and hastened down to the betting ring to place a bet, remarking to some friends that there was a Ideal" on with the mare The books had stopped taking bets, however.
 j. E. Winter of Chicago testified that after the races Farley admitted to him that he had substituted Aimess for Sarah Black in the race
 Several other witnesses were examined and Justice Lemkie then held Farley for trial in the recorders court and fixed the bail at S25OO, which Farley did not fur nish. He was committed to jail.

 MT. Dickinson paid a tribute to the opposing counsel and Lord Chief Justice Alverstone's fairness
 Alverstone Praises Dickinson.
 Lord Alverstone said he had many lead CTS fthe American bar speak in arbitra- tion and other cases but MT. Dickinson $ argument equalled anything he had ever heard and he had not suffered by the fairness and impartiality with which he had presented his arguments.
 MT. Foster said
 Having approached the end of the open sessions, l desire in the name of the government of the United States and In behalf of my associates and myself to make public recognition of the extreme friendliness and consideration with which we have been received by the British government and by its representatives. Not only has every facility and convent ence been afforded us for the dispatch of the business which brought us to this capital, but these acts have been attend ed by marked courtesy and kindness. In making this acknowledgment, it is espe- eially pleasant to recall the fact that during our prolonged sessions, not harsh word has been spoken. nor has an un- pleasant incident occurred to mar the har- mony of our intercourse. May this be an indication of the character of the de- cision to be rendered by this tribunal which both nations await with so much interest"
 Lord Alverstone replied feelingly, say ing that his majesty's government would doubtless appreciate such an expression of friendship and thanks Attorney Gen eral Finley will entertain the commis- sioners and counsel at dinner tonight

ALASKAN BOUNDARY
 ARBITRATION ENDS
MT. Dickinson With Eloquent Peroration on Friendship
MUCH INTEREST AT CLOSE
Lord ATverstone Says He Has Heard Many Leaders of American Bar Speak, But MT. Dickinson's
 Talk Was Unsurpassed.

London, October S.-The arguments in the Alaskan boundary arbitration were finished at D. m. today. MT. Dickinson concluded with an eloquent peroration dealing with the bonds of amity between the United States and Great Britain. The wives and families of the commissioners and of counsel were present John w. Fos- ter, the agent for the United States thanked the British government in the name of the American government for it's courtesies Lord Chief Alverstone paid a tribute to Mir. Dickinson and the session broke up.
 The closing moments were marked by an intensity of interest, hitherto lacking in the proceedings. As MT. Dickinson fin- ished his argument and commenced his references to international relations and the possible effect of the verdict thereon, the members of the tribunal and the other listeners appeared to grasp the true inn port of the proceedings, which had almost been lost sight of in the puzzling tech nioal details in which they had been shrouded.
 A Unique Tribunal.
 "The tribunal" declared Mir Dickin- son, "is unique, and the treaty will en- tirely miscarry unless at least one men- Der shall decide against the contention Of his own people. The faith that Judgment will be exalted above the plane where the sympathies that move men have sway, challenges the attention of mankind and distinguishes this tribunal above all oth- CTS. It does not follow that failure to reach a decision will show that such faith was in any degree misplaced; but if settlement is reached it will be a tri- umphant epoch in history the struggle of humanitarian principles for the substitu- ton of something better than war as the sole court determining international diff ferences. What could give higher inspira- tions to those laboring for the peace of the world than the settlement of these issues, so pregnant of possibilities? If the tribunal should render judgment praet- cally unanimous 1t would be the strong est assurance yet given to hu- manity that the Christian nations are tending toward the only practical realiz- ations of the poets dream of a parlia-
