SOUTH AFRICAN PROBLEM.
Secretary Chamberlain Trying tn
Solve Labor Difficulty.

JOHANNESBURG. Transvaal. Jan. IL
Endeavors are being made here to sur
mount the labor difficulty. Colonial Secre-
tary Chamberlain received a number OF
mine representatives to-day. He agreed TO
throw open Nyassaland and British East
Africa for the recruiting of native labor.
and he said that IL his influence with the
Foreign Office prevailed Unganda would
also be thrown open. Mr.. Chamberlain
proposed that The sovernl.rnt -
port TO South Africa 5000 navvies on the
condition that the mines import an equal
number the government laborers to be
employed on the railroad and other govern
ment works. He estimated that this step
would release 10000 natives for work In the
mines. The mine owners, however, appear
to object TO any government control in the
matter. They want the open-door policy,
and believe that the shareholders will not
sanction the importation of British labor

WILCOX CONVICTED.
Found Guilty of killing Nell CrOpsey
mt Elizabeth City, N. C..


HEREFORD, N. c., Jan. 21.-After be-
ing out for twenty-four hours the jury in
the Wilcox murder case at o'clock this
afternoon returned verdict of murder in
the second degree, and the defendant was
sentenced to the penitentiary for thirty
years, the full limit of the law. Wilcox's
attorneys gave notice that an appeal will
be taken to the Supreme Court. The pris-
oner will be returned to Jail at Elizabeth
City, where his alleged crime was commit
ted, to await orders of the court.
The crime for which James Z. Wilcox
was found guilty is alleged to have been
committed at Elizabeth City. N. c., on Dec.
70, 1901 He had called at the home of Nell
Cropsey, and when leaving at IL o'clock at
night called the girl out into the hall. This
was the last seen of her alive. Her body
was found in the river 800 yards from her
home thirty-seven days later, and a slight
bruise was found on her head, which led
to the theory advanced by the State she
had been hit with a blunt instrument and
thrown into the stream. The evidence
against Wilcox was circumstantial. He
was convicted of murder in the second de-
gree at the first hearing last March in
Elizabeth City, but new trial was granted
and the case moved to an adjoining county.

Legislators and Railroad PASSES.
Springfield Republican.


Legislators have no business with rail-
road passes. This general truth is given
point just now by Charles s. Mellen, pres
ident of the Northern Pacific Railroad
That corporation framed its passes for
members of the Legislatures of Minnesota,
North Dakota, Montana, Idaho and Wash
ington so that they would expire immedi-
ately upon the close of the legislative ses-
sions Affronted solons in Minnesota and
Montana decided to return their passes
with the statement that IL they could not
be made good for the entire year they
would not be accepted. Thereupon Pres
ident Mellen issued a statement in which
he charges that members of State legisla-
lures from Minnesota TO the Pacific coast
have lent their annual passes to friends
and sold them TO ticket scalpers TO such an
extent as TO draw charges of discrimination
from business firms in the Northwest. This
still further stirs up the makers of laws.
but IL also calls attention TO public scan
dal The acceptance of railroad passes by
the members of any legislature should be
prohibited by law whether in New Hamp-
shire. Connecticut, the Northwest or any
olher section.
