Tibet and Great Britain, which has
been sent to Peking by Amban, the
Chinese representative at Lassa, and
which the correspondent believes to

IL contains preamble and ten ar
ticles, the most important of which
bind the Tibetans to establish three
markets for mutual trading between
British ana Tibetan merchants; to al.
low traffic along existing routes and
others which may be opened in future
between India and Tibet; Tibet to pay
an indemnity of S2.5500OO in yearly in

GOES BACK TO
ES0PUS HOME
Judge Parker Ends His First
Political Visit to New York.
TO CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR.

Conferences Fail to Settle on Nomina-
ton to Be Made at Saratoga, but
Many Other Important Questions Are
Decided.
New York. Sept 17.-Leaving the
governorship puzzle unsolved, Judge
Parker has returned to Esopus. All
day he was in conference with the
Democratic leaders, and, while the
state ticket was under discussion most
Of the time. no candidate was decided
on. In his trip TO Esopus Judge Parker
was accompanied by his secretary and
by Charles S. Hamlin of Massachu-
setts, former assistant secretary Of the
treasury.
In week or two the presidential
nominee will return to the city for
stay of two OF three days at least, will
occupy the same suit Of rooms at the
Hotel Astor and will review the work
that his campaign managers are doing.
1t became known yesterday that, de,
spite all contradiction made hitherto,
Judge Parker will keep well in the
foreground Of the campaign until cleo
hon.
He will probably make several trips
TO the city IN order that he may keep
IN intimate touch with affairs and so
that he and Senator German of Mary
land, who, il was announced on Thurs
day night will be active in the work Of
the committee. may frequently consult
each other. 1t is not his plan TO direct
the work Of the committee in any way
OF to interfere with it, but he will so
arrange his visits here that plans of
vital interest to the campaign may be
submitted 10 him before being under-
taken. He will from now on be a much
more conspicuous figure in the work of
the canvass than he has been.
1t was definitely settled also that he
will make several speeches, probably
six or seven, toward the end of the
campaign. This subject was discussed.
but no selection of dates or places was
made It is understood that the nomi-
nee will consent TO speak in those
places where. in the estimation of his
managers, the most good can be
hCHltNeu.
The selection of a temporary chair
man of the Democratic state conven-
tlon was made. His name will be
made public today at the conclusion OF
meeting Of the Democratic executive
committee.
Every indication points to a bitter
struggle between the Democratic fac
tons on the floor Of the state conven-
tiOn over the nomination for governor.
Not even the presence of Judge Parker
in the city was sufficient to bring about
agreement among the leaders upon the
head Of the ticket
Although the day was spent in con-
ferences, every candidate whose name
was suggested encountered such strong
opposition that he was laid aside.
When the leaders separated not one
knew who would be nominated. All
further deliberation was postponed un-
til next Monday night, when. in Sara
toga. a final attempt will be made to
bring about harmony.

COLONEL DUNN SATISFIED.
Says He and Patt Have No Objection
to Higgins.

to Higgins.
Binghamton, ~ Y, Sept. 1T.-COlonel
George w. Dunn on returning from
Saratoga said of the nominations made
there by the Republican state conven-
ton:
"The principal object of Senator
Platt and myself was to hold the con
vention where 1t was. so that either
Higgins or Woodruff would be nomi-
mated instead of some other man. Eli
ther one Of them was perfectly salts
factory to us. 1t is an excellent ticket,
and we are all going to stand by it.
From twenty-five years acquaint-
ance with Frank w. Higgins, l want
to say that If he is elected he will be
governor every minute, and no one
else. l have seen him in positions
where il took iron nerve to hold his
ground. and he had il all the while.
Il trust that every Republican friend
Of mine in the southern tier will give
Frank w. Higgins as loyal support as
they would any man Of their own
choice"
