Tote for it they opposed any
rule iu a democratic House, which would
cut off the right to filibuster. The speaker
•aid that upon this statement be made some
inquiry among other friends of the bill and
found quits a number who did not desire
the committee to report any rule to bring the
House to a direct vote, whereupon he
thought, in pursuanoe of his statement in
the caucus, and in pursuance of the idea
upon which he had acted, that he was the
■errant and not the master of the House,
that it was his duty to consult the wishes of
the majority of his party iu the House.
THE IIOTIC® TO BLAND.
The speaker then said to Hr. Bland and
other friends that he did not feel that, in
justice to himself or to the party, be oould
favor or report a rule which would force a
vote upon the silver bill unless a majority
of the democrat* in the House expressed a
desire that be should do so. To tnis the
speaker said Mr. Blaud replied that he
would not get up any petition, seeming to
think that whether the majority wanted
it or not, the committee on rules
should report such a rule. Mr.
Pierce and others, the speaker said,
hod expressed approval of the course of the
speaker, and had said they would get up a
petition showing the wishes of the demo
crats in the premises. The speaker has not
seen Mr. Bland since, and does not know
wbat the status of the petition is, but he
thicks that if no direot vote is had upon tne
silver bill It wili be because the vote on the
motion to table lndioatee to a majority of
the democrats that the bill can Dot pass,
and therefore they will not request the
•emmittee on rules to bring In a report cut
ting off filibustering.
TH® SITUATION DEFINED.
Speaker Crisp defined the situation to be
■lmply this: If s majority of the democrats
In the House desire the committee to make
a report which will enable the House to
oome to a direct vote on the silver hill, and
if they eignify that desire, the committee
will make tee report It they do not so
Signify the oommittee will understand that
a majority do uot desire it, and the re
sponsibility will rest with a majority of the
demoorats of the House, and not the com -
mittee on rules. As to Mr. Bland's refer
ence to the speaker’s opposition to silver or
his duplicity, the speaker said be had noth
ing to say, except to recall that by his
casting rote he had himself prevented the
bill from being tabled, and to state that as
a representative from Georgia he favored
and will vote for free ooinage of silver. To
■bow that he was in favor of free coinage
of silver, the speaker recalled the fact that
be had appointed a oommittee whioh
favored this measure, and had appointed
Mr. Bland as the bead of that oommittee,
notwithstanding that Mr. Bland
bad been a very active opponent
of Mr. Crisp in the speakership contest.
Although in favor of free ooinage, the
speaker stated that, as speaker of the House,
be would endeavor to exeoute the will of
the majority of democrats therein, respect
ing reports from the committee on rules,
and no criticism by Mr. Blaud or effort by
Mr. Bland to shift tha responsibility would
deter him from pursuing this course,
To-morrow the subcommittee of the ap
propriations committee of the House starts
for Chioago to inquire into the expendi
tures and management of the world's fair.
The oommittee bad postponed its departure
to await the action of the House *on the
silver bill. Their departure . now is taken
as nonolusive evidence that no silver exi
gency requiring their votes is likely soon to
arise again.
WORK OF THE HOUSE.
Donovan of Ohio Incorrectly Recorded
on the Silver Vote.
Washington, Mareh 28.— Although the
news bad gone forth that the committee on
rules would not to-day report to the House
a resolution for consideration of the sliver
bill, yet the galleries were well filled with
spectators and there was an air of anxiety
pervading the members ia the ohamber.
The speaker laid before the House a com
munication from Representative Joseph
MoKenua of the Sixth district of California,
Informing the House that he had sent his
resignation as representative to the gov
ernor of California. The communication
was spread upon the journal.
The speaker also laid before the House a
communication from D. D. Donovan of the
Sixth Ohio district, stating that on page 263
of the Congressional Record he was re
corded as voting in the negative on Mr.
Burrows’ motion to lay the stiver bill on the
table. He was not in the hall when ins name
was called on this or any other roll pertain
ing to the silver bill. As his physician, Dr.
Hasen, had given positive orders that he
should not leave his room, he was obliged
to write instead of making an explanation
in person before the House. The speaker
stated that a correction would be made, and
the communication was spread upon the
journal
DOES HOT CHANG® THE RESULT.
Mr. Burrows of Michigan inquired
whether this would make any change in the
result of the vote. The Bpeaker replied
that it had teen stated at the time that It
would not.
Mr. Dingley of Maine Inquired wbethor
the gentleman from Ohio was recorded as
having voted on any previous vote.
The speaker replied that he had not made
an examination. The response was made
in regard to the vote on which a question
had been raised. The chair was informed,
however, that the gentleman was not on
record.

NO WAR OVER THE SEALS
SALISBURY'S LAST NOTE LOOKED
UPON AS SATISFACTORY.
Tha President and Hla Cabinet Pleased
With the communication—The Sen
ate Discusses the issue in Executive
Session—Much Time Devoted to the
Question of Damages.
tv ashinoton, March 28.—President Har
rison devoted the entire morning to con
sideration of the Bering sea matter with a
view to framing an answer to Lord Salis
bury’s note of March 26. He had the benefit
of the advice of Secretary Blaine, Senator
Sherman and Gen. Foster, who were in con
ference with him on the subject for some
time.
It is said on good authority that the Presi
dent aor his cabinet are well pleased with
the conciliatory tone of Lord Salisbury’s
note of March 26, especially as it is held to
conoede a point that has been the principal
cause of contention, viz.: Renewal of the
modus vivendi of last year for the protec
tion of the seal fisheries. This alleged con
cession is believed to be implied id hie
proposition to agree to a modus in case the
treaty of arbitration is ratified under the
oondltion that each government shall
guarantee the other for damages Incurred
through a suspension of sealing operations.
A PLEASING ADMISSION.
One official, who has been consulted by the
President in re.ard to the negotiations, said
be was especially pleased with Lord .Salis
bury’s admission that Great Britain would
hold Itself liable for damages resulting to
the United States because ut the modus Vi
vendi in the event that tbs arbitrators is
adverse to its contention. Hs said that
taking it altoge'her Lord Salisbury’s note
is satisfactory a* indicating a good prospect
for an amicable settlement of tha questions
at issue. Further correspondence will be
necessary to settle the metlioi of determin
ing the character of the damage claims.
LAID BEFORE THE SENATE.
Lord Salisbury’s last communication to
the President stating the grounds upon
which he would oonsent to renew the modus
vivendi as to Bering sea was laid before the
Renats soon after it went into executive
session this afternoon. The publication of
the full text of the document in the morn
ing papers had given the senators an oppor
tunity to acquaint themselves with it I efore
its formal presentation. In transmitting
the paper to the Renats the President added
to the formal letter a statement that Lord
Rahabury’a reply was very satisfactory to
this government and that he waa preparing
a suitable rtsponae. The character of
this response was Indicated briefly in the
President’s letter as beiDg a substantial ac
ceptance of Lord Salisbury's tender with a
few modifications that could doubtless be
arranged without difficulty. Thera can be
no question that the ieceptlon of the com
munication has largely removed any doubt
of favorable action of the Senate upon the
treaty, and, in fact, when an adjournment
was had, it was the general believe that the
treaty would be ratified to-morrow, and
that, too, without any ooDditious or resolu
tions that might operate to defeat the com
pletion of the negotiations.
HOME STILL KICKING.
There is still an element in the Benate
that persists in nrging the adoption of a
resolution requiring the President to with
hold exchange of the ratifications until the
modus vivendi is renewed, and they include
in their ranks two members of the oommit
tee on foreign relations. Senators Frye
and Gray, who made strong argument* in
support of their position. But tbs events
of the last few days have caused a ohange
of mind on the part of many senators
who at first had taken that view of
the oasu and further inroads were made
upon the ranks of the opposition to-day as
a result of Mr. Morgan’s exposition of the
present diplomatic status of etas negotia
tions. One view pul forth by a western
senator has won many adherents to the
treaty. It was in substance that the
United States had everytulng to gain and
nothing to loss by ratification of the treaty.
Assuming the worst possible outcome
of the arbitration, a decision against tbe
United States on each of the points
submitted, it was urged that there still re
mained enough of value in the seventh
artiole of the treaty to warrant Its ratifica
tion. That article pledges Great Britain
to 00-operat with the United Htates in the
protection of the seal fisheries under rogu
latious to be formulated by the arbitrators,
so that even If damuges to a considerable
amount were assessed against tbe United
States and in favor of the British sealers,
the United Btates would receive in return
assurance that the value of the seal fish
cries would be enhanced to a much larger
amount through efficient international pro
tection.
the question of damages.
Much of the debate to-day was devoted to
the question of damages that might be
awarded by the arbitrators for or against
this country. Senator George took a
prominent partin the discussion of this
point, and, fortified by a number of au
thorities, such as Elliot’s work on seal life,
proceeded to address tbe Senate at
great length, the newsy feature of
hie speech being an eulogistio
reference to President Harrison’s attitude
in the negotiations. No specific prediction
as to the amount of the damages was at
tempted, but senators familiar with tbe
subject cited figures to show that poachers
secured 65,000 seal skins last year, whioh
meant destruction to over 300,000 seal inas
much as only a small proportion of the total
number of seals killed at sea are recovered.
But it was believed that not more than 16,-
000 skins wero taken In Bering sea proper,
and takiug the government valuation of {ls
per skin, the damage we could rightfully
claim for last year’s operatiousof the poach
ers would not be considerable,
LOSS OF THE CANADIANS.
On tbe other hand, the loss sustained by
Cauadian vessel owners, assuming that they
were illegally excluded from the seal
waters, must have been much larger than
our own. These considerations were all dis
cussed at length to-day, and as a result, it
appears that a majority of the Renats have
concluded that public policy requires rati
fication of the arbitration treaty. A prom
inent western senator who opposes a ratifi
cation of tbe treaty without a reso
lution withholding final exchange
of the agreement between the governments
until England agreo* to renew the modus,
and who had vigorously advocated this
position in tbe executive session, said to
night that he was confident be was voicing
tbe sentiment of the majority in saying that
Lord Salisbury’s response to the President’s
last letter, published this morning, shows a
decided diplomatic victory for thin govern
ment, and was virtually a baok-down on
Great Britain’s part from the elevated
position in tbe oontentlon to wbioh she has
so tenaciously clung during the cor
respondence. He expressed no doubt
of the final ratification without the resolu
tion, and said that while many senators
wers opposed to taking this action upon it
he felt no doubt but that it would be
(probablyj to-morrow) returned to tho
President in the form it was sent to tho
Senate without any instructions whatever.
Salisbury’s diplomacy.
Incidentally It appeared during tbe debate
that Senator Sherman paid a high tribute
to Lord Salisbury’s diplomatic ability. He
had tieen asked for his opinion upon the
last letter and replied that while it anpeare.l
to oonoede everything it really held
on to a very substantial olaim. “He must
have a vankoe over there to write his let
tors," remarked the sonator, who thereupon
told a story illustrative of his point, which
in substance was that a yankeo broom
maker in the old free trade (leys sold twelve
dozen brooms to a country merchant,
agreeing to take one -half cash and ouu-half
in trade. After rs -wiving his cash for six
dnzsn brooms, the brooinmaker wan fused

story was a welcome relief to the monotony
of the session.
A CHANGE FOn THE BETTER.
London. Mareh 29. 3. a. m. The
Chronicle says: “We are glad to observe a
change for tbe better in the attitude of the
Washington government toward Great
Britain a- a result of tbe President's
dev .‘ting the whole morning to cocsidera
tioa of the difficulty. It is to be rsgret’ed
that he bad not mastered the details of tbe
British case before drafting bis last moni
tory dispatch. Pe-haps the ohange of tone
is due to the fact that be w as assi ted in bis
studies by Secretary Blaine, Senator
Sherman and Gen. Foster."
TARIFF BILL PLANS
Free Wool to Be Voted On on April
22—The Other Tariff Bills.
Washington, March 28—The Springer
free wool bill will be brought to a vote on
April 22 or 23, unless there should be a hitch
in tbe present programme of tbe demo
cratic majority of tbe ways and means
eornmittes, which haichargeof the measure.
Chairman Rpringer of the committee is on
the programme to close the debate in
an hour's speech. Mr. Springer
expects to be sufficiently Improved
in health by that time to fulfill the ta<k.
The binding twine and ootton bagging
bills will then be pushed to a vote as soon as
possible, to be followed, perhaps, by other
specific bills attaoking separate items of the
McKinley law.
AN EARLY ADJOURNMENT.
With these measures disposed of In the
House, and tbe appropriation bills in excel
lent shape, so far as the House is concerned,
tbe democratic majority of the ways and
means committee believe that an early ad
journment of congress is possible,and accord
ingly discussed the adjournment question
to some extent to-day. No conclusion was
reached, but the sentiment was favorable
to June 1 as the day of final adjournment.
This is an unusually early date for adjourn
ment and there are many persons who be
lieve the final adjournment will be delayed
for many weeks after Decoration day; but
still the sentiment expressed by a majority
of the members of the ways and means com
mittee is significant as showing what they
wish was believed as possible.
TIIE DUTY ON TIN PLATE.
The principal work of the majority of
the oommittee to-day, however, related to
the tinplate duty, which has been more
talked about than almost any other article
made dutiable by the McKinley tariff act.
It was decided that the tin plate schedule
should be the next subject of attack after
the three schedules of wool and woolens,
binding twine and cotton bagging, which
are oovered by bills now before the House.
Several tin plate bills. Including the Bunt
ing bill, were referred to Mr. Shively of
the committee, who called the matter up,
with direction to draft a measure for report
to the full committee and tbe House. Mr.
Shively is at work on a measure which will
differ In some reipeot from all of the bills
now before the oommittee. In substance it
will provide that from and after Oot. 1
next the tin plate duty shall be 1 cent per
pound until Oot. 1. 1894. After that date
tin plate shall be duty free. A drawback is
also provided for upon the unsold stocks re
maining on hand when the changes of this
bill take effect.
QUAY AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
The President Patches Up a Modus
Vivendi With Him.
Washington, Maroh 28.— Senator Quay
called at the white house to-day and had a
short but agreeable interview with the
President, during whioh a modus vivendi
was agreed to and a basis for a permanent
reconciliation was laid. Senator Qnay, it
said, tol 1 the President that he was entirely
willing to be on friendly terms, but
that he should have to ask that the Presi
dent would restrain the Pennsylvania office
holders, high and low, who were to trying
to interfere with bis election to the Senate.
He is said to have mentioned tbe postoffice
inspectors, who, under tha direction ofjiheir
superior here, have been trying
to aid Representative Dalzell. The Pres -
dent is said to have given satisfactory as
surances which were amplified in subse
quent interviews whioh Renator Quay bad
with Recretary Elkins aud .Secretary Fos
ter. Secretary Quay's victories on Satur
day cause him to he regarded by the Presi
dent and hit manager as likely to be his
own successor and too powerful to be op
posed, and they aro trying to secure his
support, with a good prospect of success.
BLAINE GOING AWAY.
A Belief that It Presages His Retire
ment From the Cabinet.
Washington, Maroh 28.— Secretary
Blaine intends to go away for his health,
but has been waiting to get ready to travel
aud incidentally to watch the outcome of
the Bering sea controversy, with which he
has, however, had no vital connection re
cently. He wis at the white house to-day,
and is said to have told the President that
now there was no important matter pend
ing in his departmout he was contemplating
a temporary departure from Washington.
Friends of the President regard tnis ae pre
saging his departure from the cabi
net. They say that he wants to re
main away from Washington and if
practicable from the United Rtates until
after the Minneapolis convention, and that
he does not want to remain in the cabinet.
In fact, that he would have resigned long
ago if it had uot been for tho newspapers.
They are already talking of his successor,
John W. Foster being tho favorite in their
speculations, but Reoretary Tracv and
Renator Edmunds are being mentioned.
NEGROES AROUSED.
A Mooting at Chicago Denounces tha
Lynching at Memphis.
Chicago, Maroh 28.—One thousand ne
groes assembled at tho Bethel African
Motbodist church last night to consider “the
recent southern outrages upon their race.”
The first sensation of tho evening came
after a short address whon tbe pastor. Rev.
! George W. Gaines, asked the audience to
join him in singing “America.” As one
man the audience rose aud refused to sing
that song until this country is what it
claims to be, “Sweet land of liberty.” The
pastor substituted “John Brown." Several
addressee followed the singing, among the
speakers being State Representative Morris,
who urged the colored people to organize
into leagues and associations to resist, by
united efforts, outrages by the white*.
F. I* Barnett, speaking on tbe recent
Memphis lynching, said: “Memphis calls
itself the Queen City of the south and boasts
of its intelligence and honor, its inhabit
ants uave all the wealth, all tbe influence,
all that power or cowardice could suggest,
and yet thus fortified the city permits men
of honor and business Integrity, who have
grown from iufancy to manhood about its
streets—men who never felt the force of the
law even to a feather weight, but were
known far aud wide a9 industrious, upright,
creditable citizens—to he cast into jail for
defending their property and lives. Tins
‘Queen City' stands to their defense and ut
ters no words of protest.” The jailer in
charge at tbe time of tbe lynching was
severely scored, ns was the white press,
which, admitting that it was an unfortunate
affair, warned the negroes that an attempt
to reianate might booome serious. The
speaker closed by appealing to the negroes
of the oouutrv to abstain from rash nest,
but to umi calm calculation and courage,
aud delilierate over the manner In which
| repetitions of the Memphis affair may be
avoided.

TERMINAL IN MORE TROUBLE.
Tbe New Reorgan zation Plan In Dan
ger cf Failure.
New York, March £8. — Rumors of
trouble in regard to tbe organization of the
Richmond Terminal system were again cur
rent to day in Wall street. It was stated
that meetings have been held frequently
during several days to act on certain new
developments, and Calvin 8. Brioe came
from V> asniegton on Thursday last in
response to an u gent telegram from Gen.
Thomas. It was alto said that a long meet
ing was held at the New York club yester
day, and to-day a report was circulated
that tbe plan had practically fallen through.
Vice President Fahnestock, when spoken
to this morning about the report that he
had nsigned from tbe reorganization com
mittee, said: "The report# have no founda
tion. There has teen no trouble or rupture
of any kind, and there has been no change
iu the situation. Tbe time in which the
success of tbe plan can be judged is still far
away, April 14, being tbe date fixed as the
limit for depositing securities. The First
National Bank people are the security hold
ers, but not holders c t Richmond Terminal
stock.”
At the Central Trust Company it was
learned that Chairman Olcott had gone out
of town, and was not expected at nis office
to-day.
IMPORTANT interests clash.
There is a general understanding that
there is serious trouble between important
Interests in the system. The following
statement was made to-day from a source
practically official: “Gen. Thomas has cer
tainly been displeased by several thiuga.
One is that when tbe Olcott oommittee sent
his letter recommending the resignation of
all tbe officers of the Terminal system he
bad a right to expect that the presidency of
the new company should be offered to him,
even though he declined. Then there has
certainly been unfair discrimination shown
in the proportion of new securities to be
given in exchange for tbe securities of the
present companies. Tne Kuoxvilie aud
Ohio is one instance, and tbe other East
Tennessee securities a.so can be given. It
is certain that some of tbe underlying
securities of the East Tennessee will not bo
deposited under tbe plan unless its provi
sions are changed.”
DEATH FROM HYDROPHOBIA.
A Negro Boy Dies From the Bite of a
Mad Fox.
Charleston, B. C., March 28i—Isaiah
Smith, a negro boy 15 years of age, died at
the hospital here on Friday last of hydro
phobia, brought on by tbe bite of a mad
fox. The hospital authorities were very
reticent about tbe matter, declining to give
any information to the press. The body
was sent back to Monok s Corner, in the
vicinity of which the boy was bitten, and
from there the details of the tragedy were
learned. For more than two years past
there have been periodical frights in the
forests around this oity caused by the
strange stories told by negroes about
MAD FOXES.
On several occasions authenticated cases
of people belr.g attacked have been pub
lished, but this is tbe first cose in whioh a
huinau being has been bitten by one of the
mad foxes, and is also the first fatal oase
known to have occurred. The boy was at
tacked by a mad fox about a week ago
while going through the woods. He was
attended by a local physician at that place,
but the wound did nut seem to heal aid
symptoms of rabies made themselves mani
fest. The boy was accordingly brought to
Charleston and placed in the city hospital
for treatment.
MEDICAL TREATMENT OF NO AVAIL.
However, medical soieuoe was of no
avail, and soon it became apparent that
tbe patient was in the throes of hydropho
bia. He lingered for a little time and died
from the effects of the bite and there Is no
doubt of his (P ath resulting from hydro
phobia. The fright of tbe negroes iu that
section is reported to be very great and the
entire country is aroused. There is good
fox bunting in the immediate vicinity of
Charleston, and the huntsmen here are
somewhat puzzled. There is talk of organ
izing a hunt with a view of exterminating
the foxes from the face of tbe country.
CHARGED WITH ASSAULT.
Tho Victim of the Outrage an 8-
Year-Old Girl.
Columbus, Ga., March 28.— Public senti
ment is rapidly crystallizing egainst James
E. Uarlington, a young man charged with
committing a criminal assault on the per
son of an 8-year-old girl Saturday night.
This morning Darlington’s victim’ was un
able to appear in court, and the case was
continued until next Monday. The accused
was sent to jail, Tho condition of the little
girl is unimproved to-night, aud
Bhe will be confined to her
bed for some days. Garlington is a mem
ber of the Knights of Pythias and Colum
bus Gui_rds and has heretofore borne a
good reputation. He came here from
Chambers county, Alabama. ’I here has
been considerable talk of lynching this
alternoon and to-night. The commissioners
have placed a strong guard at tbe jail, and
Mayor Rlade has taken the precaution to
hnve police in readiness to respond promptly
to any call for help.
There is a strong sentiment among con
servative people in favor of a special term
of court to try the case, and Judge Martin
will probably tie asked to call a term at the
earliest possible time. There does not ap
pear to be any immediate danger of an at
tack on tbe jail, but tbe authorities have
taken precautionary measures end would
offer a mob a vigorous and determined re
sistance.
EULENBEBG SPEAKS.
References to the Educational Bill
Cheered and Hissed.
Berlin, March 28. —Before the regular
business of the day was considered in tbe
lower house of tbe Prussian Diet to-day.
Count von Eulenberg, tbe newly appointed
president of tbe Pt useiau counoil, made a
statement in which he justified tbe separa
tion of tbe imperial chancellorship from the
presidency of the Prussian ministry. He
pointed out that tbe burden of the work
involved by a union of the two posts was
beyond the powers of one man. Continu
ing. Count von Eulenberg said that in view
of tbe fact that discussion of tbe primary
educational bill bad created a serious and
hitherto unreconcilable difference in the
Diet and in committee and also in the
country at large, and as no
satisfactory result could be expected at pres
ent, the government refrained from insist
ing upon further consideration of the bill,
but, be added, tbe government reserved to
itself tbe right to decide when and in what
form ihe matter would again be taken up
without overstepping the limits of the con
stitution. Count von Eulenberg’c statement
was received with mingled cheers and hisses
by the members. Nearly all tbe ministers,
with the exception of Chancellor von
Caprivi, were present.

the dynamite scare. It is asserted that ex-
Mimster Constans kep: tbe secret fund for
personal control of information obtained
during his term of office out of his succes
sor's reach.
Upon a house in the Rue Renneauen,
occupied by eight police officials, there’ was
found the folio wing inacrintlon:
"This house will shortly be blown up
with dynamite.”
At a meeting of the municipal
counoil to-day M. Lore, replying
to questions announced that all of the au
thors of the recent dynamite outrages ex
cept two had been arrested. He denied that
any tenant of tbe house blown up yesterday
in the Rue Cllchy had been menaced. The
police, he said, had ample funds for tbe
purpose! of .surveillance.
The Chamher of Deputies to-day,without
debate, passed the bill relative to inflicting
the death penalty on any person or
1 -arsons convicted of having destroyed
property by means of an explosive. A
clause was added to the bili exempting
from the punishment provided by tbe
measure persons who have information
whereby guilty parties were brought to
justice, even though the informers were
accessories before tbe fact, provided that
they informed the authorities before the
orime was committed.
FLIGHT OF THE FOREIGNERS.
London, March 29, 3 a.m.— The Paris
correspondent of the limes telegraphs to
hts paper as follows: • ’Within a few days
30 per cent, of the foreigners able to Quit
this oity will have gone hence. The prefect
of police should have Ihued a decree com
pelling concierges to keep their doors shut
and to submit all Incomers to close scru
tiny. Unless such a decree is published
Paris will be a sufferer from a ruinous
exodus.”

The Rome railroad would not Ist them do
this. At 10 o’clock two car loa is of
bands and tools arrived over
the Richmond and Danville, and by day
light this morning bad their track con
structed across that of the Rome railroad.
Thu morning early tne Rome railroad filed
its injunction and bad tbe whole proceeding
undone, and the track that had been laid
during the night taken up. The superin
tendent and his hands were arrested and
gave bond. The affair has caused a great
sensation in the city.
