BOLD ROBBER CAUGHT.
Police Find the Negro Who Held Up
Miss HenIine.

After gathering clues all day Mon
day, Detectives Ross and Lucas last
night arrested the man who robbed
Miss Tiliie Henline on Saturday night
on Quincy street. His name is George
Hudson. He is a negro. A charge of
highway robbery was sworn out
against him, and he was turned over
to the state and lodged in the Shaw
ness county Jail.
Hudson was arrested by the othcerS
at Sixth and Kansas avenue The de-
scription given by Miss Henline of her
assailant tailed so closely with Hud-
sons appearance, that the officers
were sure they had the right man.
He was taken before Miss Henline at
1874 Quincy street, and she positively
identified him.
THAT is the man." she cried as
Hudson was brought before her.
THAT is the man."
Hudson has a bad laceration of the
scalp on the back of his head, which
he received when Miss Henline threw
him down on the pavement He
claimed to the officers that he re-
ceived the injury in a fight on Friday
night The officers, however, found
people who had seen Hudson just be-
fore tha hoIdup, at which time he had
not vet been injured.
The money and the watch which
were taken from Miss Henline were
not found on Kudson's person. The Of
6cers think he pawned them or gave
them to some of his friends in the
bottoms.

.HOLTON SCHOOL LOSES
Bequest of S1OO,O to Campbell Uni
versity Invalidated.

Although the will of Millionaire
Allan G. Campbell, after whom Camp
bell university at Holton was named,
has been declared void by a court at
Riverside, Cal, and Campbell uni
versity thereby loses a bequest of
100000 it is stated that when the
Campbell estate is settled up the heirs
will make donation to the university
as designed by Millionaire Camp
bell
Allan G. Campbell was a wealthy
mine owner who divided his time be-
tween Salt Lake City and southern
California. In addition to large in
terests in Utah and California, he owned
land in Kansas, and in his will he be-
queatheG 100000 to Campbell uni
verSity. The entire estate was valued
at about a million and half.
The suit to break the will was not
so much over the division of property
nor to cut Campbell university out of
its portion, but to break some of the
other provisions. Campbell was di-
vorced from his first wife, by whom
he had three children, and he made
his second wife his executrix- She
was also made the guardian of his son
Charles, who was prohibited by the
terms of the will from seeing his own
mother, the first Mrs. Campbell. 1t
was this latter provision that was dis
tasteful to the son, as the will pro-
vided handsomely for the second wife
and all three children The son
brought suit to break the will, be-
cause it tied up the property for 18
years, and his suit was successful.
By breaking the will both his step
mother and himself will receive much
more than the will provides but the
outside beneficiaries, including the
university, are cut off. The young
widow has recently married again.
Although Campbell university is the
principal sufferer through the break
ing of the will, there seems to be a
desire on the part of the legatees to
carry out Mr.. Campbell's desires, and
it is stated that the university will be
looked after and provided for as soon
as the estate can be settled up. Under
the provisions of the will it could not
be settled up for g years. so that the
Hoiton college may be better off in
the end after all.

TELLER AGAINST 1T.
He Opposes the San Domingo Treaty
in ANY Form.


Washington, March 14.-When the
Santo Domingo treaty was taken up in
extra session of the senate today, Sen
ator Teller again made a plea for an
open session for the discussion of law
points which he said were involved in
the treaty. He said that it was de-
sirabIe on matters of this character
to get the views of the country and
make the people understand just what
was proposed to be done under the
treaty.
The senate committee on foreign re-
lations was complimented by Mr..
Teller for the efforts it had made to
satisfactorily amend the treaty and
he declared that the convention with
perhaps one or two additional amend
ments had been put in the best pos
sible condition. But" he said, ''it is
impossible to amend the treaty SO that
it will satisfy me. l am opposed to it
for fundamental and basic reasons.
He declared that the policy to be en-
barked upon under the treaty was
contrary to our form of government
and a dangerous precedent to estab-
Iish. Objection was made by Senator
Foraker to opening the doors. After
this question had been disposed of for
the second time during the debate on
floor and discussed the Dominican debt
for the purpose of showing that it was
largely made up of fraudulent claims
He talked also of the revenues of the
government and used as a basis the
data which he recently presented to
the senate and which was printed as
a senate document.

FIGHT STANDARD IN ONO.
Cleveland Will Be the Center of Inves
cation of ISockefeIIer's Trust


Cleveland. March 1.-THE fight
that is being made against the Stand
ard Oil company in various parts OF
the country will soon break out in
Ohio. Cleveland the home of Rookie
feller and the native heath of the
Standard Oil company, will be the
center of the investigation.
The Cleveland Petroleum associa-
tion has asked Commissioner Garfield
to look into the conditions in Ohio
where the Independents claim they are
hampered in all efforts to compete
with the Standard Oil company, and
that a serious situation confronts the
producers, who will not come to the
terms of the trust.
Another move in the fight was made
when the Fred G. Clarke company, oil
jobberS, with large offices in this CITY,
brought suit against the Lake Shore
Boston & Maine, New York, New
Hampshire & Hartford railroads and
the Delaware &s Hudson Canal COM
pany charging that discriminatory
rates are being given against them and
other Independent oil dealers.
William E. Wall, president of the
Fred c.. Clarke company; secretary of
the Cleveland Petroleum association,
''For many years." he said, ''the

ing to get its oil into New England.
reason for our failure to get this busi-
ness or a share of it from the Stand

ITO ship oil from Cleveland or any
other point to New England the oil
must reach the shipping point via the

railroad. For every freight article
other than petroleum or one of its
products I can get a common Boston
