ASKS FOR A RE-HtARING.
Ex-senator Burton's Petition to the
Supreme Court.

The petition of former United States Sem
ator Burton for "a rehearing by the SUI
preme Court of the United States In the
case against him was today received by the
clerk of that court. The petition Is signed
by all of Mr.. Buttons counsel, consisting
of John F. Dillon, F. w. Lehman, Harry
Hubbard, w. X. Haynes, W. P. Hackney
and B. P. Waggener. They contend that
the court should have sustained the conten-
ton that section 1882 the statute under
which Burton was prosecuted. was uncon-
stituttonal and void. and it Is urged that
the opinion of the court shows that many
important considerations bearing on that
statute were overlooked.
1t is also urged that there was no PROOF
to sustain the charge of the indictment that
Burton rendered service to the Rialto
Grain Company In the proceeding of the
United States against it: that the offense.
if any, was committed only once, and not
continuously every month during the term
of Burtons employment as counsel by the
company; that the letters of complaint sent
to the Post Office Department should not
have been read to the jury, and that much
testimony was admitted that should have
been excluded and much excluded that
should have been received.

In view Of the dissemination of the State
Department to renew negotiations with the
government OF Venezuela for reconsidera-
ton of the claims OF the Bermuda Asphalt
Company and other United States corpo-
rations, 1t Is interesting to note the precise
status OF those troublesome issues when
negotiations were suspended last summer.
as partially disclosed by the red book just
issued by the State Department.
The most important features of this cor
respondence are the so-cailed ultimatum Of
the late Secretary Hay and the response OF
President Castro. In an instruction to
United States Minister Bowen, dated March
10. 1905. Secretary Hay said:
The attitude of the Venezuelan govern
men toward the government of the United
States and toward the interests Of its citi-
zens who have suffered 50 grave and FREE
quent wrongs arbitrarily committed by
justice should now be fully done. once for
all II the government OF Venezuela
finally declines to consent to an impartial
arbitration, insuring the rendition OF COM
plete justice to these injured parties, the
government of the United States may be
regretfully compelled to take such meas
ureS as 1t may find necessary to effect
complete redress without resort to arbi-
tration.
1.-The government of the United States
stands committed to the principle of i'm
to nobody, and il Its moderate request Is
peremptorily refused 1t will be at liberty
to consider, If 1t is compelled to resort to
more vigorous measures, whether those
measures shall include complete indemnifi-
cation. not only for the citizens aggrieyed.
but for any expenses of the government or
the United States which may attend their
execution
The Venezuela answer, rendered March
%, amounted to rejection of Secretary
Hays proposition. for 1t denied that there
were any questions pending between Vene-
zueia and the United States. and said that
in order to consider Mr.. Hays note the
provisional president Of the republic of
Venezuela needs to know at once-for
the stated reasons. whether the matter,
In question relates to the sovereignty and
independence of this republic-that is to
say. whether or not the government or
the United States respects and reveres the
legislation of this republic and the nobility
Of its tribunals, and whether it respects
and reveres equally the agreements and
arbitral decision which it, representing the
Venezuelan government. concluded"

JIMMY COLLINS RETURNS.
Report That He Had Been Suspended
Pronounced Incorrect.
snecial Dispatch to The Star.

BOSTON. Mass. July 16.-Manager "Jim-
my" Collins of the Boston Americans put
in an appearance at the grounds on Hun
tington avenue this morning after an alb
sence of week on his own hook. A local
paper had 1t yesterday that Collins had
been suspended. but information from
headquarters is that there Is absolutely no
truth at all in this story and that he Is
in good standing
Collins was so Disguised with his inability
to get into the game and play that he left
the team and remained at Nantasket Beach.
He was to have shown up Saturday, but
he failed to appear. Another effort was
made yesterday to induce him to come back
to his post. and this time 1t was successful.
President Ban Johnson of the American
League was also expected this morning but
wired that business OF Importance would
prevent him from being here for a day
or SO. 1t Is thought that he will smooth
out matters when he arrives here.
Pitcher George Winter, who has been
away for ten days, owing to Illness. ar
rived in the city last night and hopes soon
to be able to get into the game.
It Is the general opinion here that this
will be Collins last season as manager of
the local club. A representative of the club
has been away for over q week In quest of
new players, but nothing has been made
public as the result Of his errand.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
r NEW YORK, July l6-The pronounced
betterrlent in stock market conditions 20
day appeared to represent chiefly re-
newal of the upward turn In prices which
was in progress toward the close OF last
week The recovery was as unaccompa-
MED by any novel development as was the
preceding almost unbroken decline. SAL
urday's bank statement, to be sure, pro-
duced a favorable effect upon sentiment
and there seemed today to be rather less
uneaslness respecting monetary conditions,
although there were no alterations noted
70 in the rates quoted for either cali loans
or those for time periods.
Announcement was made early in the
day, however. that 100000 gold had been
secured In the open London market for
shipment to New York. and this c.rcum-
stance was -unquestionably a factor in the
mornings rise in prices.
The banks have Jared very well in thelr
transactions with the subtreasury 'nls
week and the mornings igures set forth
a gain in cash In their dealings with that
institution since last Friday Of more thah
81 100000. In addition. the subtreasury IVES
debtor at today's clearing house se'lie-
ment to the extent of s1,SSo,coo.
The London stock market was uaafec'ed
by New Yorks purchase of gold, and was
quite undisturbed, even In the kaffiT &C.
partment, by the death of a large cnpi'al-
list identified with South African enter
prlses.
Americans Advanced in London.
American stocks were quoted there at
substantial advances above parity win
New Yorks closing figures of Saturday
and foreign houses were buyers here to the
extent of about 20, 900 shares.
Among the other influences referred to IN
connection with course of prices was the
prospective return to this country OF sew
eral prominent capitalists. although this
explanation was advanced perhaps IN the
absence of any more cogent reasons II
was unquestonably the case that many
OF the days more extensive advances re-
fiected the precipitate covering of short
contracts, although, on the other hand,
there can be no doubt that the putting out
of commitments in this same direction was
in large measure responsible for last week
decline.
An exceedingly heavy borrowing demand
for stocks was observed in the loan mar
ket an indication that the contracts of THIS
description have been by no means retired
and many observers Of the stock market
conditions are of the opinion that there
exists at the present time not only an ex-
tended short account, but one of q more
general character than has been noted for
years.
