PEARSON HAD THE BEST
OF ITALIAN TROUBLE
Although II Appears That the American
Consul Was Wrong in Offering Az
front to Italian Railway Man.
ny ASSOCIATED PRESS,

Rome, Oct. 26.-From the political in
quiry it appears that Richmond Pearson,
formerly United States consul at Genoa
and now minister to Persia, as announced
Saturday, was fined in default 500 and
SIS costs for insulting an Italian rail-
road official Oh December go, 1902, was
completely within his right in complain
ing Of the behavior of the railroad official
referred to, but it is alleged that Mr..
Pearson was himself wrong by insulting
the official.
Mr.. Pearson claims the immunity en-
joycd by the diplomatic body, but it seems
when the incident occurred he had not
yet been appointed minister to Persia.
1t is also asserted that his letter to the
United States embassy here, asking to have
the sentence annulled, is in such form
that it cannot be shown to the Italian
minister for foreign affairs.

ALDERMEN ENTER
VIGOROUS DENIAL
RYAN AND HEAVY SAY BELMONT
MINE HAS NOT BEEN FLOODED
FROM THE GAMBLERS.
HAVE CHARGE OF THE LATTER
Brand as Maliciously False Rumor Set
Afloat to Effect that Bukhead
Has Been Blown in.

A rumor published this morning emanat-
ing from the Heinze headquarters to the
effect that the Belmont mine was being
flooded by water from the Gamblers work
ings. has called forth a vigorous denial
from Aldermen NJ. Ryan and Patrick
Heany, who have the Gamblers under their
care.
The story alleged that a bulkhead be-
tween the Gamblers and the Belmont had
been blown out and the water allowed to
run into the Belmont
In speaking of the affair today Messrs.
Heany and Ryan stated that they had
owned lease in the Gamblers which ex-
pred recently. After the expiration of
the lease these gentlemen we're employed
by Mr.. Gillie to take care of the workings
and protect the property.
Mr. Heany was highly indignant when
shown the statement alleged to have eman-
ated from Max Fried. TO the effect that
the bulkhead had been removed by the
Gamblers people.
You can say for myself and Mr.. Ryan
that we brand the statement as an ,nquali-
fed falsehood. We do not know who is
responsible for it. but whoever he is the
above applies TO him.
I'VE have watched this property care
fully and there has been no one down
there to molest that bulkhead. and ii i,
has been removed it was done from the
Heirze side. We have been tanking water
all the time and none OF it has gone into
the Belmont. You can make this dena
as strong as you please.
This report has been circulated ma
liciously. and we wish to brand it as abso
lutely false"

EXTRADITION TREATY TO
INCLUDE BRIBERY CASE
United States Seek to Make Agreement
With France by Which Rogues May
Be Dragged Back to Justice.

Paris, Oct a6.--Carrying out instruc-
tions recently received from Washington,
Ambassador Porter has begun negotiations
for an additional clause in the extradition
treaty between the United States and
France to cover bribery. The formalitics
will take some weeks, but the informal
conference indicates the willingness of
the French officials to make the desired
extension.
1t is doubtful, however, whether they
will be willing to make the clause retro
active so as to include bribery committed
before the clause goes into effect. The
ambassador is seeking to expedite the nego-
tiations. and the French authorities arc
manifesting a desire to fully meet the
wishes of the United States.

is that he has turned over to them
