rived here and will soon leave for
same with Farnk Hickey and H. W
Burkhardt, the former of whom is the
alleged murderer of John M. Clayton,
and the latter the man who informed
on him. Sheriff White had an inter
view with Hickey in the jail. Hickey
told him that he wu in the penitentiary
at Walla Walla, Wash., when Clayton
wu killed, but added that from what
he had learned from Burkhardt since
the occurrence, burkhardt himself was
one of the murderers. Sheriff White
will receive requistion papers. He is
satis tied that Hickey is one of the men
wanted. Hickey offered to accompany
him without requisitionapers, but the
ArkansM sheriff will not take chances
on starting without them. Burkhardt
claims to have driven the wagon for
the party that killed Clayton and uys
he will point out the spot where th
tuns are concealed as soon as h
reaches Plummerville.
Little Rock, April 1. Sheriff
White of Conway, county, who went to
Butte. Mont., with a requisition for
the alleged assassin of John M. Clayton
telegraphed the Daily Gazette u fol
lows:
"Find the evidence against Hickey is
good. The testimony will show that he
and a man here and one other hired a
conveyance at a livery stable in Con
way and drove to Plummerville on the
night of the assassination and thai
Hickey and one of the parties stepped
up to the house and murdered Clayton
The witnesses claim they got 12,400 for
the job. if the witness produces the
parties he claims will corroborate the
statements, there is no doubt we have
the right man. The witness is well ac
quainted in Little Rock, but asked to
have his Dame kept a secret."

has been rumored that Mr, Whitney

that direction. To a reporter's inquiry

Another Bank lu Trouble.
Washington, April 1. It is author

"National bank case at Atlanta, Ga.,
bu not been removed, but any further
action on his part in the case hu been
suspended till Attorney-General Olney
and Secretary Carisle of the treuury
agree on the course to be pursued.
The case has assumed a very peculiar
phue. The bank is in the opinion of
the treuury officials, in a position to
oi ea its doors and pay every dollar of
its ulebtedness caused by the defalca
tion of Cuhier Re wine, but there is
said to be a disagi ement u to wbo

The present board i open to a charge
of having wrong! nlly taken money
from the bank. Jackson wu formerly
counsel for the bank. His son com
mited suicide shor ly after the Red
wine defalcation came known. This
overwelmed Jacks i with grief and it
is said he made some very wild state
ments as a result igaist the members
of the old board of directors. They
were so grave that the government
felt called on to stop further action on
his part in the case till a searching in
vestigation of the bank's condition is
made.
Cader tha Baeelaa Treaty.
Washington, April 1. The senate,
smarting under the criticism on the
Russian treaty, hu decided when it is
made public to make the public at the
same time the text of the treaty u it
came to that body for comparison's
sake, and at the same time to publish
the correspondence between the
United States and Russian officials
during its negotation. It is pointed
out that the extradition clause in the
treaty with Belgium is almost iden
tical with tba one which hu been so
criticised, and that similar clauses are
common in our treatiu. A prominent
republican opposed to tha treaty uys

Of a new party, the Hawaiian patriotic

the avowed purpose of maintaining u

country, shows bow the opposition to

members of the league were not at

newspapers received here, telling o
the apparent doubt existing in the

almost all pronounced royalists and
are a factor in politics. The influence
on any proposed action is expected to
count for a great deal. The disaffected

officers would also like to see a change

liberal newspaper that a republic be
established for the interim that it
is popularly supposed will elapse
between the present time and that
at which the Uni; d States govern
ment arrives at some conclusion re

in justice to the moderation and
patience of the provisional govern

The plea of Sir Edwin Arnold of
England for a Japanese protectorate
over Hawaii hasag ini called attention
to the danger which a tew sinewed ob

Ashford, in conversation with an Asso
ciated press correspondent, said he wu

fort to annex or establish a protector

Minister Stevens. Geueral A. S. Hart
well also holds that if the United States
withdraws its protection it will force
the Islands into the bauds of either
England or Japan. There are twelve
to fifteen thousand Japauese in the is
lands, who on a popular vote cut a
powerful figure. Chief Justice Judd
also thinks Japan bu designs upon the
islands. The British minister, Wode
house, is on friendly terms with the
Japanese commissioner, and is quoted
u having said lut week, "The flag of
the United States will have to come
down and her troops be removed." add
ing that no commissioner would be sent
here from the United States to inves
tigate the situation. Other remarks of
the British minister in liuewith this

thing in the nature of a startling dis
covery bu been made by H. F. Chip-
man, a son of Congressman Chipman
in regard to the title to the lands of a
large part, if not the whole, of the
upper peninsula of this state, and if
his conclusions are borne out by
more minute investigation aud
sustained by the courts every acre ot
land in the peninsula west of Sault Stc,
Marie and Mackinac to the Montreal
and Monomlnee rivers, and from 1.
superior to Michigan and die straits,
inclusive of city and village lots, will
be handed over to the rightful owners,
decendants of the Chippewa Indian
nation oi the l.ake Subenor region.
Chipman asseristhat his investigations
have convinced him that no cession
oi :ne upper peninsula lands was
ver made to the United States
;overnment, aud therefore, the title
leeds in every registration of deeds in
in the region indicated are as worth
less as so much blank paper.
