Springfield, ILL.,, Nov. 6.-The trial Of
Joseph Killoran was held in the United
States district court here. Killoran was
charged with completely in the robbery
Of a safe in the private Office Of Post
master Ridgely, of this city, at noon
of April 3, 1895. The robbers secured
$4,000 in postage stamps and $1,000 in
silverware, the latter being wedding
presents Of Postmaster Ridgely's
daughter, wife Of Mayor Devereaux.
Sidney Yennie and George Carson were
arrested for the robbery, convicted and
served term in Chester penitentiary.
Killoran was arrested in New York,
but escaped from Ludlow street Jail
and was recaptured in New York last
spring. Before any testimony was
heard Killoran threw himself upon the
mercy of the court and pleaded guilty.
In consideration of the prisoners age,
ill health, and the fact that he had lost
leg in France while a fugitive from
justice, Judge Humphrey sentenced
the prisoner to only one year in the
Chester penitentiary.

THIS rs A FISHY DISPUTE
Uncle Sam and Michigan Looks at the
Matter from Two Different
View Points,

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, Nov. Ga
clash between the state game warden's
department and the United States fish
commission has resulted in the arrest
by Chief Deputy Warden Brewster, OF
the captains and crews Of three fish
ing tugs doing business out of Mar
quette. Warden Chapman has de-
cided that the practice of allowing the
fishermen employed by the commits
sion in getting spawn for the hatch
cries at Duluth and Worthwhile in the
closed season to keep about 80 per
cent of the fish, or all those that are
not stripped, and sell them at a high
price, is against the interest of the
state, and must be stopped.
Superintendent Wiers, of the fish
commission, took the ground that the
great lakes were under federal juris-
diction, and he ordered Brewster off a
tug that he attempted to board. Chap
man says he will stop the practice if
he has to confiscate every tug in the
business and prosecute every captain
with his crew.

Edgemont, S. d., has been complied
with and the prisoners have been

The commissioner of Indian affairs
did not refuse to let the Indians go
into the custody of the sheriff, but he

After a conference, Colonel Torres,

both parties would fulfill the agree
ment.

And there is this good thing about the
home-that it does not take SO very
much money to make it pleasant

world goes, have big bank account,
bonds and mortgages, have fine house
and be envied by his fellows, but if he
be mated to a wife with an ugly temper
or have boys or girls who go wrong he,
with all his wealth cannot know what
home is. There are lots of fine houses

Decided Upon at a Conference.

The decision to make an announce
ment today was reached after a con-
ference at the White House of the
president, Secretary Hay, Secretary
Moody, Assistant Secretary Loomis,
Rear Admiral John G. Walker and
Rear Admiral Henry G. Taylor, chief
of the bureau of navigation. The con-
ference ended shortly after II p. N.
A cablegram has been received from
the United States consul at Colon say
ing that the 400 Colombian troops
which arrived there Monday on the

Means Recognition by Uncle Sam.
The Associated Press is enabled to
state that this government will con-
duct affairs with a firm hand in the
execution of the treaty of 1916. Or
derS have been sent to the various
naval commanders in the Caribbean
that the isthmus is to be policed, the
transit kept open, and also that blood
shed must be prevented at any cost.
This is further than the United States
ever has gone heretofore, and in the
opinion Of officials here indicates that
the establishment of the new govern
ment at Panama, if it proves stable
and orderly, will have the good wishes
of the United States and our ultimate
recognition and cooperation in con-
Quoting an orderly and permanent gov
eminent on the isthmus. Advocates Of
the construction Of the Panama canal
say this assures the execution of that
project.
