appropriate exercises and III the pre-
sence Of 4 large crowd OF visitors
from many parts of the state the
monument was unveiled today which
the Manchester Historical Society
had erected at Christfana, in the east
ern part of the county, to mark the
site of the old log cabin around
which, sixty years ago, ragged the
"Christiana Riot, one of the famous
and bloody conflicts between slavery
and anti slavery elements before the
civil war.
The Chr1Stiana riot was the out
growth of an attempt by a Maryland
stakeholder to- regain possession of
four runaway slaves. The negroes,
who we're claimed by Edward Cor
such as his property. crossed the
S~usquehanna River at the Columbia
bridge and. by means of the famous
underground railroad we're spirited
to the eastern border of the county,
were they were detained until ar
rangements could be made for their
transportation further north.
A negro taven keeper in Philadel-
phia learned that warrants had been
issued for the arrest of the Gorsuch
slaves and hurried to Chritsiana to
give the alarm. When the party,
consisting of Marshal King, Edward
Gorsuch, Dickinson Gorsuch, his
SON., DR.. Thomas Pearce, a nephew,
Joshua Gorsuch. and two hired as
sistants, arrived with their warrants
at Christina on the morning Of Sep.
IL, 1851, the fugftives, who were
Secreted in the cabin of a negro nan
ed Farmer, we're prepared for them.
Marshal Kline and Gorsuch batter
ed down the door of the cabin and
asked the slaves, hidden in the attic,
to surrender. The negroes refused
to surrender and the warrants were
read to them. About this time Cas-
ter Hanway and Elijah Lewis, two
white residents. known for their
strong anti-elavery ideas, appeared
upon the scene. They were called
upon by the marshal to assist in
capturing the slaves, but positively
refused to lend their hand.
Then the marshal party attempted
to storm the attic, the negroes open
ed fire and Edward Gorsuch was Kill
led and Dickinson Gorsuch and DR..
Pearce were wounded. Nothing
that the cabin was surrounded by
armed negroes, Marshal Kline gave
up the attempt to capture the slves.
The Federal authorities promptly
took steps to prosecute the rioters,
All the negroes who participated in
the riot were arrested, together with
several white man, Including Han
away, Lewis and Joseph Scarlet.
They were taken to Philadelphia and
there tried on the charge of TREASON.
The trial lasted fifteen days and, al
the presiding Judge, Grier
and Kane were strong pro-slavery
men. the jury acquitted the prisoners.
What lent additional interest to the
exercises today was the presence at

AL club women mothers and teach
ers will read with interest the ex-
preston Of opinion given below from
the pen of Mrs. R. R. Gotten, presi-
dent North Carolina Federation of
Woman's Clubs:
All that helps the mother in the
training of children; all that gives to
the child higher ideals of life all
that brings into closer union the home
and the school should be welcomed
and utilized. The After School Club
Of America seems to have woven into
the strong cord the three important
factors in life, the mother, the child
and the school.
With the marvellous facilities for
education along the most vital of all
lines the study Of training of child
nature, its specialized organization to
meet these special demands, and it's
array of child-welfare workers, who
are giving time and talents to this
work, the After School Club canont
fail to be a blessing to all who share
its benefits.
''The home council department
seems of special value, because it.
reaches the individual mother and
helps her solve her individual prob
lem in child training. It is the in
dividual mother, in her unversality
upon whom primarily devolves the
solution OF radical problems, and
what helps all humanity.
Hoping the After School Club
may reach and help every mother in
America.
Cordially yours,

Armistice Agreed Upon.

Juarez, Mex, May ia general
fve-day armistice between the reyo-
lutionists and the federal government
was agreed upon at s o'clock last
night, to take effect Immediately
throughout Mexico.
1t was signed by Judge Carbajal.
the federal peace envoy, and DR.. Vas
quez Gomez, Jose Pine Suarez and
Francisco Madero. Sr.. the members
of the rebel peace commission.
This is the first general armistice
agreed on since the revolution began
last November, and is expected to call
a halt to warfare in central and south
ern Mexico. 1t Is believed that within
Ave days permanent peace agree
ment will be made.
Madero still insists on naming four
teen governors out of twenty-seven in
Mexico and has been offered the priv
ilege of naming ten.
With the federal peace envoy de-
claring that no agreement on any
point has been made officially, the
provisional government will demand
Ludl DldZ SIGH uOtuhCitS oCSaoA ~ .
his agreement that the governors or
the fourteen states and the cabine4
officers may be named by the revolu-
tionary party. While it is understood
that the federal government has few
objections to the rebel demands this
requested action of the president is
declared by the federals to be techni-
cally impossible.
While Diaz, it is argued. will give
almost all concessions asked by the
provisional government, he cannot Of
ficially do so. AS an instance, the
constitution will not allow him to APP
point governors of the states, although
nominally he has done so. He could
not put his name on such papers. The
insurrectos' demand that Diaz sign
the appointments, while the federals
declare this impossible, saying that
the provisional governors will be i'm
mediately installed and that this guar
antee should be sufficient.
While this understanding is techni-
cal in its nature. 1t is believed to be
the boen OF present contention and
that 1t may block a successful continu-
alton of the peace negotiations.

SYNDICATE HOLDS
DEBT CERTIFICATES
Decision OF Supreme Court, However,
Has Not Caused Quotations
to Rise.

Washington, May 1S.--One source OF
wonder among West virglnians has
been why the socalled West virgiaia
certificates, by the issuance OF which
Virginia discharged q portion OF its
State debt, have not risen in the mar
ket 10 a price approximate their par
value. The Supreme Court OF the Unit
ed States has given It's decision In
the case to the effect that West Vir-
ginia Is liable for something mere
than $7,050.000 with the matter of IN
terest undecided. This is approximate.
ly the full amount for which Virginia
issued the debt certificates, am there.
fore 1t would seem that the certifi-
Gates should be quoted at par when
they are offered for sale. But they
did not rise In Wall street quotations.
above about 50 cents on the dollar,
even at the time OF the Supreme
Courts decision and there has been
much speculation as to the reason.
1t Is learned here that the reason
the certificates have not reached any
higher quotation Is that In the event
of their payment, large part of their
value will be absorbed by the Wall
street syndicate, which Is prosecut-
ing the suit, and the lawyers who
have 1t In hand en- behalf of the bond
holders. Even the spectators, who
purchased the certificates at few
cents on the dollar years ago, will not
realize full value on them, IL w st
Virginia Is compelled to pay them, be-
cause OF the extra large slices to be
cut on first by the Wall street manip-
ulators and their lawyers.
Nearly all the West Virginia certif-
Gates, as they were designated by Vir-
ginia, have been pooled In the hands
OF Wall street syndicate, which has
agreed to collect them, II possible. a
contingent commission being agreed
upon, or in other words. a commission,
IL collection Is made, but no pay X
they fail To collect Contingent COM
missions are usually large-'much lar
ger than straight fee--because OF
the risk which Is taken of doing the
work without getting any pay at all
And II Is doubtful IL the Wall street
syndicate. which has In hand the col
lection OF the debt certificates would
undertake the job on commission
basis, unless the commission were
large enough to prove very attractive.
Besides the Wall street syndicate
the lawyers for the bond holders are
to get commission. accc riding to the
information given here. They, too
undertook to do the legal part CT the
work for the Wall street syndicate,
accepting a contingent fee for pay
ment. Again, this contingent fee Of
the lawyers must have been large for
them to be willing TO undertake the
case with no retainer and only
chance to earn fee.
So IL would appear that even the
Wall street spectators, who took
a look chance and invested few
ce1ts en- the dollar in these certifi-
Gates and who 1t has been supposed
would reap the benefit of amy finding
against West Virginia will have to
share their profits with the syndicate
which undertook the collection, and
the lawyers employed by them. and
share literally. This explains why
tne debt certificates have not reached
a higher quotation on the market.
