Bow Kionapped and Abused.

George r. Howard, the 10-year- sor
Of q. W. Howard OF Bolton, escaped last
week from period OF slavery in the back
woods OF Keene Valley, n. Y, and tells q
narrowing tale Of his abduction and suf-
iering.
Feb. 5 he was taken to Crown Point, \.
v, by his father to live with his grand
mother and attend school. One morning
when on his way to school, he was asked
TO ride by a man In team who would not
let him get out when he reached school,
but carried him miles into the woods and
there Kept him for weel as captive and
made him do a mans work chopping
wood and carrying water from early morn
ing to late at night, frequently beating
him and giving him little food.
The boy finally planned and made good
his escape. He struck through the woods,
travelling night and day without food.
Finally he came TO the home of Albert
Tillotson in "Fishtown.n and was taken
to his grandmother home, where he was
met by the father and taken to Bolton,
little the worse for the experience. The
father had been dangerously i'll and had
not been notified, for that reason, OF his
sons disappearance.

at that time the position of Mr.. Bryan
was made plain, that the solicitation
of funds from such men as Andrew
Carnegie would be distasteful to him
and contrary to the principles he was
contending for.
Definite action was not taken on the
matter at the time, although a consid-
cradle difference of opinion was ex-
pressed by individual members of the
board, the issue never came squarely
to the front for decided action.
In November, however in view of
possible gifts from sources which Mr.
Bryan had indicated would be obnox-
ious to him, it was deemed advisable
for the board to take decided action on
the matter.
Bryan's Wishes Are OvcrruIed.
a resolution was passed therefore to
the effect that the board would accept
any funds solicited by individual mem
bers of the board if given under condi-
tions which made acceptance possible.
This resolution was cabled to Mr.. Bry-
an at Hongkong, Nov. 6.

John d. Rockefeller for several weeks
past have become convinced that the
oil king is on his way to South Ameri-
ca aboard the steam yacht Diana, char
tered by II. H. Rogers, Jr., son of Mr..
ROckefeller's partner.
Mr. Rockefeller is said to have board
ed the yacht in Savannah, where the
yacht took on provisions and coal for
long cruise. The next heard of her
was from San Juan. Porto Rico. The
Diana left there before it could be as
certained definitely that Rockefeller
was aboard
Mr. Rockefeller's determination to
take an ocean voyage has occasiOned
much comment. He has never cared

MOROCCO DISPUTE
TO END IN PEACE
Delegates to AIgeciras Conference De-
termned to Settle Amicably
Question at Issue.

Algeciras, Spain, Feb. 13.-The de
sire on the part of the delegates to the
Moroccan conference to arrive at a
satisfactory conclusion remains un-
changed despite assertions to the con
trary. The pessimism of certain OF
the delegates even seems to have given
place to a sentiment more in conform
ity with the situation, which is any
thing but hopeless.
The representative of powers not
directly interested are determined not
to leave Algeciras until not only has
the question of Moroccan reforms been
settled. but confidence and harmony re-
established between the two antagon-
istic powers.
The German delegates declare that
the conference must and will find a
solution of the points in dispute, which,
if not complete, shall at least be pro-
visional and honorable for all, and that
despite the serious difficulties standing
in the way everything will come right
at the last moment.

pages. They allege that a large part
of the evidence given at the trial was
false, and Attorney Comerford con-
tends that the person who made one
of the affidavits admits that falsehoods
were resOrted to in the course of the
trial by witnesses for the prosecution.
Other afidavits allege some of the eX-
pert testimony did not show whether
the arsenic found in the woman's body
had been taken into the intestines be-
fore or after death. One affidavit TO
this effect is said to have been made
by a prominent pathOlogist who was
the first to examine the body after
death. He was not called to testify by
the prosecution, according to the state
ment made by Attorney Comerford,
for the reason that his testimony would
have differed from that of other expert
witnesses.
Stay of Sentence Asked.
1t is contended that the new evi-
dence will put a different construction
on the case and that the governor
should grant a stay of sentence in or
der that Hoch may have a chance to
prove his innocence.
