VERDICT IN MENTOR WRECK.
Coroner Decided Telegraph Operator
Opened Railway Switch.

Coroner Sigelstein of Cleveland yesterday
rendered verdict in connection with the
wreckng of the twentieth century limited
on the Lake Shore railroad at Mentor,
Ohio, June %, In which nineteen lives were
lost. holding that Walter F. Minor, the tele-
graph operator at Mentor, opened the
switch which caused the accident.
The coroner states that the Lake Shore
officials greatly facilitated his investiga-
ton by willingly cooperating with him.
The verdict in part, Is as follows:
I'm the 800 folios of typewriter testimony
taken at my inquest there appears not one
word tending to show the presence of any
one but Minor, who was in charge of the
station that night, in the immediate vicin-
ity of the depot or the switch Immediately
preceding the wreck or afterward. Hence
1 can only come to the conclusion, which Is
REINFORCED by other points of the evidence,
that Walter F. Minor opened the switch,
but whether he did so of his own volition
or by telegraph orders of a superior officer
am not prepared to say
dispatch from Painesvile Ohio, says:
copy of Coroner Sigelsten's report was
sent to officials of Lake county, in which
Mentor, the scene of the wreck, Is located.
After careful analysis of the report the
sheriff of Lake county does not believe
there Is sufficient evidence upon which to
issue a warrant for Minors arrest, and has
therefore refused TO take any action In the
matter. The coroner of Lake county, in
which eleven victims died. has not yet made
his report.

Bass plantation, near Lake Cormorant,
last Sunday, was taken from Sheriff With
ers and a deputy last night, and, at the
scene of his crime, hanged by an armed
mob. The negro confessed his guilt, but
pleaded that he did not intend to kill
Perry, a pistol. for the possession Of
which they were contending, he said hav-
ing exploded. The mob numbered about
100 men.
Young was captured yesterday while
fordng a river to reach his fathers
cabin on an island. Sheriff Withers. who.
with a posse Of forty men, had been
securing the country fer the negro, was
notified of the capture and took possess
sion Of the prisoner. fastening with the
negro to the town Of Tenton, where he
purposed taking a train for fernando,
the county seat, the sheriff was confront
ed at the station by the mob, and before
he could make an effort at resistance was
oyerpowered and his prisoner taken from
him. The mob then proceeded to the Bass
plantation with Young and hanged him
to q tree.

PREDICTED CRISIS IN CHINA
Berlin Baker Said Great Monetary
Trouble Is Liable.

Carl Beckman, Berlin banker, a recent
arrival at San Francisco. who has been
travelling extensively in China, declared
that a grave monetary crisis is liable to
occur in China before long.
THAT country" he goes on to say, seems
to be manipulating its coinage In such a
manner as to have less valuable coin
circulating side by side with one more valu-
able. and according to a well-known eco
nomio law, the less valuable medium is
likely to drive out the more valuable one
and cause a financial depression.
Heretofore the cash.. copper coin, in
value equal to about one-twentieth of the
American cent. has been the chief coin in
circulation. But recently there has been
an extensive mintage of coin called the
cent 1t is equal to about ten cash. OF
the latter fully 100000 were coined last
year. while the mintage of the cash has
not been increased.
'Now, while the value OF the cent is
nominally about ten times that OF the cash
Its intrinsic value is not nearly so much
larger, and I fear that the less valuable,
intrinsically, of the two coins will drive out
the other. I doubt II the Industrial strength
Of China Is such as to make 1t prepared to
substitute such a unit of money as the
cent for the much less valuable unit, on
which all transactions have been based in
the past"

HOPEFUL PROSPECT.
Japanese Press on the Outlook
Portsmouth.

The Nichi Nichi, published at Tokyo,
says: -
THE continuance of the conference III
indicative Of a hopeful prospect for the con.
clusion Of peace" W
The paper declares that If the RUSSIANS
had rejected absolutely the questions Of
reimbursement and the cession of Sakhalin
Island the Japanese would have withdrawn
from the conference These demands are
equally as important as the Korean and
Manchurian questions. Japan's Victories
have been realized by the vast sacrifice OF
money and blood without the prospect Of
Russia's compliance in the payment of war
expenditures and the transfer Of Sakhalin
Island. There is no reason why the corl-
ference should not be continued"
The Nichi Nichi expresses the belief that
the Russian delegates divulged the nature
OF the Japanese demands and suggests that
the japanese delegates abandon the plan Of
secrecy and keep their people informed an
to the progress of the conference. ~
