CANADIAN ELECTIONS

Toronto. Ont. Feb. 17.-ln view Of
the approaching general federal cleo
tions in Canada, much Importance is
being attached to the eight bye-elec.
tions which were held today The re.
suit was generally protest against
the increase of protective duties on i'm.
ports as it was on this platform that
the conservatives waged their cam
paign, the latter carrying but three Of
the eirgt contests. The liberals, as
represented by the government of tn
premier, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, carried
five of the contests.
The only actual change in the re-
suits occurred in ST. John City where
in 1900, the Hon. A. G.. Blair, liber.
al cabinet minister since resigned,
carried the borough by one thousand,
the conservatives today carrying the
borough by three hundred. This how.
ever. is construed more as disapproval
of the governments Grand Trunk.Pa.
ciAc railway scheme than of the gen
eral tariff policy.

LAMBLIKE
SURRENDER OF CAR BARN
BANDITS DESCRIBED.
STORY TOLD IN COURT
Their Slight Chance Of
Acquittal Destroyed.

Chicago, Feb. 17.--The lambliko
surrender of Van Dine and Nieder.
meier after q career more desperate
and bloody than any in the history Of
Chicago criminals, was pictured to the
jury in Judge Kersten's court today
by Edward Jewell, who headed the
posse which captured the bandits in
the Indiana corn field.
Standing up in front of the witness
chair, Jewell raised his hands high
above his head. This is thte way Van
Dine came out from the corn shock"
he said. Then he repeated Van
Dimes words: Don't kill us. We are
the car barn robbers-the men you
have looked for so long. There is ST..
900 reward out for us and If you kill
us you will not get it."
While being searched, Van Dine re.
marked: You have the honor OF
capturing one of the worst men in the
United States and one of the best
Shots" he indicated Niedermeier.
Many society women crowded the
COul llOOul lOudy 'FWcl0
inside the rail. Blanche Bates, who is
playing the leading role in "The
Darling of the Gods" at the, Grand,
was one of the spectators, but she
did not relish the preliminaries. She
was closely searched by the matron.
A dangerous looking hat pit was con.
fiscated, until her identity was estab.
lished. Then, to make amends, she
was given a seat near the judge.
The slight chance of acquittal which
Van Dine and Nledemeier had at the
beginning of the trial has been de-
stroyed, the state claims. by the at
titude of Marx and his lawyer. Marx
started out with the fixed purpose
Of saving his own neck if possible,
regardless of his former chums. But
If he escapes hanging in the present
case, 1t is predicted that he will he
sentenced to death when he Is tried
for Quinn's murder.
The defense probably will begin
within a couple of days. 1t will be
short and devoted chiefly to an at.
tempt to prove insanity or to show the
| extenuating circumstances of early
evil influences.

CARROLL D. WRIGHT
May Not Accept Position
as Umpire.

Wilkesbarre, Pa. Feb. IL 1t is
stated In mining circles that there is
q probability that Carroll d. Wright,
recently appointed umpire to settle the
differences now existing between the
miners and operators, may not accept
the position, owing to the dissatisfac-
ton among the miners, caused by his
recent decisions.
When questioned tonight. those in a
position to know said that 1t was news
to them as they had heard nothing
which would make them believe that
Mr.. Wright had the slightest inten-
ton of resigning but that on the con-
trary, his recent assertions tended to
convey the impression that he would
serve until some one else had been ap-
pointed.
The rumor, however, concerning the
proposed resignation has been current
for days past and few contend that
Mr.. Wright has intimated that he will
make known his future plans in regard
to acting as umpire In few days.

KINLEY
Was Responsible for Mark Hanna Go
Ing into the Senate.

Was Responsible for Mark Hanna Co
Ing into the Senate.
A close political friend Of Senator
Hanna in Cleveland vouches for the
following story:
II was the martyred president, Will
liam Mckinley, who really was respon-
slble for Mark Hanna becoming I'm
tied States Senator. After the presiden-
tial campaign of 1896 Mr.. Hanna re-
fused to be candidate for any public
Office, but he was prominently men
toned for cabinet position. That
was at a time when the opposition
was trying to make much political cap
ital by attacking Mr.. Hanna. and ac-
crsing him of dominating Mckinley.
When the demand that Mr.. Hanna
should accept a public Office became
strong, and almost irresistible, he
called upon Mckinley for advice. That
was after McKinley's election, and the
conference was held at the Canton
home Of the president,
"They must stop this talk of having
you in my cabinet" Mr.. Mckinley
said. 'If you were in the cabinet it
would be charged that you were run
nirg me. You must go to the senate.
need you there. You must be there" +"
John Sherman was given the cabinet
position and Mr. Hanna was elected to
tho senate.
