Hitchcock for Cabinet.

Hot Springs, Va. Special.-Frank
Ell. Hitchcock has been offered and
has accepted the position Of Post
master General in the Taft Cabinet
that is to be. The official announce
ment of this conclusion regarding the
first Cabinet selection of President
elect Taft, will doubtless not be made
until Mr.. Taft has completed his Cab
met. at which time it will be an
nounced en- bloc. Because Of this
view of the situation no expression
regarding the selection of Mr.. Hitch
cock was obtained for publication
from either Mr.. Taft or the Repub-
lican national chairman. There were
many reasons, it was pointed out, why
it was expedient that Mr.. Hitchcock's
status should be fixed, at least so far
as the principals are concerned. and
a complete understanding is known
to exist between them. AS chairman
of the Republican national committee
Mr.. Hitchcock became. more familiar
than any other persons with the poll
teal phase Of questions likely to
arise at the beginning of the Taft
administration. and the knowledge
he gained regarding the personnel Of
the party will be Of great service to
Mr.. Taft throughout his administra-
ton.

Washington, Speeial.-Despite Off
cial reticence, information from re-
liable sources has been obtained Of
an agreement Of far reaching i'm
portance between the United States

The agreement is based upon the
idea of encouraging and defending
free and peaceful commercial de-
velopment in the Pacific. 1t contains
not only a mutual guarantee to re-
spect each others territorial pos
sessions there, but defines the attitude
Of the two counties towards China,
binding each to defend by every
peaceful means China's independence
and integrity, and to give equal com
mercial opportunity in the Chinese
empire to all nations. But more i'm
portant still the agreement in the
event of complications threatening
the status quo, binds the United
States and Japan to consult each
other with view to acting together.

The agreement has been drawn up
in the form of declaration and con-
sists of five article. of which the
following is an accurate and faithful
description: The first article gives
expression to the wish of the two
governments to encourage the free
and peaceful development of their
commerce in the Pacific. The second
is mutual disclaimer of an aggres-
sive design, and contains also a
definition of the policy of each gov
ernment, both as directed to the
maintenance of the existing status
quo in the Pacific and the defense Of
the principle of equal opportunity
for commerce and industry in China
The third article. contains a state.
ment of the consequent "frm'' re-
ciprocal resolution of each govern
ment, each to represent the territorial
possession in the Pacific of the other.
In the fourth article the United
States and Japan express their de-
termination 'tin the common interest
of all powers" in China to support
'sby all peaceful means at their dis
posal" the independence and in
tegrity of China and the principle of
equal commercial and industrial
opportunity for all nations in the en-
pire. The fifth article mutually
pledges the two governments, in the
case of "the occurrence of any event
threatening the status quo, as above
described. or the principle of equal
opportunity as above defined" to
communicate with each other for the
purpose of arriving at, mutual
understanding with regard to the
measures they may consider it useful
to take.

Union City, Tenn, Special.-The
little town of Tiptonville, bordering
on Reel Foot Lake, which has been
the scene of many stirring incidents
the past month witnessed the lynch
ing late Tuesday afternoon of three
negroes who were arrested that morn
ing for numbering Special Deputy
Sheriff Richard Jarruss, and fatally
wounding John Hall, deputy. sheriff.
The negroes are: MARSHALL Stineback,
Edward Stineback, Jim Stineback.
These brothers created a disturb
ance at religious meeting near Tip
tonville Saturday night, and when
the two. officers attempted to arrest
them, fight ensued, in which the
negroes come out victorious and
made their escape.
1t was barely daylight Sunday
morning before a posse Of citizens
from Tiptonville and the surround
ing country were in pursuit Of the
negroes, but they successfully eluded
the white men until s o'clock Tues.
day morning, when they were sur
rounded and captured in a little
swamp near the village of Ridgcly.
The vicinity is known as the old river
bed canebrake and it is a difficult
matter to trace man or beast through
it's tangles. Once captured, however.
the negroes, covered by hundred
guns, we're quickly landed in jail at
Tiptonville. The negroes when ar
rested had two guns in their posses
sion, but had run out of ammunition.
The news Of their capture spread rap
idly to the surrounding territory and
an addition the severalJhuhdred mem
bers Of the posse began arriving by
every road and soon the jail was sur
rounded by a mob which had no hesi-
fancy in threatening a lynching quick
ly and surely. In fact it was feared
at noon that tie best townspeople
could not prevent the lynching from
taking place in broad daylight.
