MOVING VERY SLOWLY. The Bennetts and Mrs. Barnaby's Wash. woman Testify Graves, DENVER, Dec. Bennett, the New York Adirondacks was called to the stand in the Graves case today, He identifled letter that he wrote and signed for Mrs.

Barnaby. This was written to Mrs. Worrell and latter to accompany Mrs. Barnaby to California. He identifled another letter written by Dr.

Graves to Mrs. Barnaby. In this the doctor said he had been ill and that the letter was. written by his wife at his dictation. He spoke of her contemplated trip to the west and praised Cuba As 8 place much more pleasant than the west.

fle advised a visit to Havana with Miss Hanley, for he thought she could not go without a sultable companion. Another letter, written by the doctor to Mrs. Graves, was now read by Mr. Reid. The doctor spoke of the bad weather in Providence and said robin needed an ulster." Mrs.

Bennett remembered the visit of Dr. and Mrs. Graves with Mrs. Barnaby her home in the Adirondacks. During her visit Mrs.

Barnaby said she left Dr. Graves 850,000 In her first will. She thought this was too much, Mrs. Barsaby often received letters from the doctor. Miss Hanley attended to her correspondence.

Cross-examined, she said Mrs. Barnaby frequently complained of Miss Hanley. She used to get up in the morn1ng and dress herself. Witness remembered Mrs. Barnaby receiving the letter in which the doctor threatened to appoint a guardian for her.

This affected her very much and she cried for several days. Once she saw Mrs. Barnaby riding horseback man style. She was dressed in a red Mother Hubbard and once fell off her horse. Mrs.

Hickey of Providence, Mrs. Barnaby's washwoman, had known Mrs. Barnaby and her family over thirty years. Mrs. Barnaby lived in a small house by herself, and when her husband died she told witness that her husband had left her but $2,500 per year and she was satisfied with that.

Shortly afterward she became acquainted with Dr. Graves and seemed to be fascinated with him. Soon after she said that Dr. Graves bad advised her to contest her husband's will. Later Mrs.

Barnaby told witness she was going to follow the doctor's advice and that he wanted her to sign a paper that Maud Barnaby was not Mr. Barnaby's child. Witness advised her to do no such a thing and Mrs. Barnaby said the doctor had told her if she could not get her rights she should have her revenge. She said Dr.

Graves told her that Barnaby, had left his money to his mistress: Mrs. Barnaby WaS very susceptible to flattery and by this means Dr. Graves gained control of her until she would do anything he said. While Mrs. Barnaby was in California witness received a letter from her, in which she asked witness to watch Dr.

Graves as she had reasons to mistrust him. In April witness and Graves had warm words about the property and the doctor said that if Mrs. Barnaby asked for her property he would bring her in insane. Dr. Graves told witness he understood that Mrs.

Barnaby was coming home to get her money and give it to the Bennetts, and If she attempted anything of the kind he would have her sent to a crazy house 01' have a guardian appointed. Henry G. Trickey, correspondent of the Boston Globe, testified to having bad an interview with Dr. Graves at Providence in which the doctor said that he was surprised that anyone should suspect him of poisoning Mrs. Barnaby.

He refused to talk concerning his movements or journey west after Mrs. Barnaby's death, and also stated that he did not know the cause of her death until he reached Denver. Mrs. Barnaby had informed him that he was a beneficiary in her will, but he did not know the amount. He told witness that he had taken charge of Mrs.

Barnaby's affairs only upon her earnest solicitation. He also reflected upon Mrs. Barnaby's character and declared he was sorry he had ever become aequainted with her. COLONEL PRICE'S LAST STATEMENT. A Very Bad Case Made Against Judge Higgins by His Victim.

to the Kansas Citu SEDALIA, Dec. 17. -In the trial of Judge John P. Higgins in the criminal court several state witnesses were examined today, 'among them William J. Stuart, who oocupied the seat on the train with Higgins when the shooting occurred.

His evidence was not very positive, as his attention was not called to the man until almost the moment when the shot was fired. The dying statement of Colonel Price was submitted in evidence. It reads: "I was talking with Mr. Stuart when Higgins turned to me and said the county court had granted an order for some bridges and he hoped I would quit lying about him. 1 told him I had not lied about him.

The subject was dropped, but pretty soon Higgins brought it up again, when I told him I would tell him why I bad not supported him at the recent election. He said: 'Out with 1t. said 'you sent some men over there to make us are an infernal said Higgins, and started to rise from his seat. I slapped him on the head when he shot me without removing nis hand from his overcoat pocket, where he had it on the revolver all the time we were talking." The reading was listened to with marked attention by the crowd that filled the court room. It differs but little trom the evidence of the wit- nesses.

SUICIDE FOLLOWS ROBBERY, Sonsational Affair at the United States Legation in London, LONDON, Deo. Some time ago United States Minister Lincoln engaged as butler at the American legation an Englishman named John Thompson. The references given by him were first class. He had been assistant butler -at Woddesdon manor for Baron Ferdinand Rothschild, the son of the late Baron PAnsel Rothschild of Frankfort and brother-in-law of Lord child, In the place he had given complete satisfaction, a fact which would have recommended him to any house in England, and his cerfificate of character showed that he was implicitly trusted in a household where jewelry is a conspicuous feature. Minister Lincoln was pleased to get a butler of such unexceptionable character and reposed the same confidence in Thompson that his former employer had.

About a month ago Mrs. Bradley Martin, the noted American society leader, was a guest of Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln at the legation. A valuable diamond spray was missed during Mrs.

Martin's stay. It was an article on which she set value, apart from its intrinsic worth, which was large, as indicated by the reward of £500 which she offered for its recovery. A most minute search was made throughout the legation, but no trace of the jewel was found. The butler was not suspected in connection with the matter and no one thought of asking him any questions. Great was the surprise, therefore, of Minister Lincoln when, about a week atter the loss of the diamond spray, Thompson went to Scotland Yard and confessed that he was the thief who had Out of Sorts Describes a feeling peculiar to persons of dyspeptic tendency, or caused by change of climate, season or life.

THE BASE BALL WAR ENDED BY COMPLETE CONSOLIDATION. The Union Between the National League and American Association Virtually Com-Sunday Games Optional in Oortain Cities Chicago's New Clab Organizers Play A Scurvy Trick The Kansas University Boys Win the Foot Ball ship After a Great Game With BakerGeneral Sporting News. INDIANAPOLIS, Dec.

17. -The league sat up all night with the conference joint committee after that body had heard the complete demands of the Milwaukee, Columbus and Chicago clubs, and at 4 o'clock this morning the league adjourned without reaching any Anal result. Nearly all of the Chicago association backers left on the early morning trains, leaving President Williams, Sam Morton and Fred Pfeffer In charge. They charge Von der Ahe with the boldest kind of treachery in; that he knew at the time they were taken into the association that they. could not continue.

Before the committee last night they asked that their position be heard by the league and it was. They proposed that the league abandon the twelve club plan and declare off all negotiations with the association. They would stand aloof from the association when it turned, to them and thus that organization would be left with seven clubs, two in straitened circumstances-Louisville and Milwaukee and another, Columbus, without a player signed. Without Chicago's assistance this circuit would disintegrate and Von der Ahe would have to retire from the business. The organizations were called for joint meeting by Von der Ahe, who gave out the fact that tho joint committee had agreed upon a report which would be presented to both organizations.

The report of the committee tocludes the constitution for the league and incorporates many of the provisions of the old league and association constitution. Sunday base ball 19 put upon a local option basis and those towns desiring games can have them included in the season's schedule as championship contests. In the constitution, which offers all the protection of the national agreement, war is declared upon any club or league maintaining a club in any of the cities now included in the new circuit. The character of this now league is despotic in its purposes, and bids fair to have everything fixed hike a jug handle-on one side only. Under the terms of the report every Chicago player signed elsewhere whose services were at the option of Spalding's team must remain there.

This carry back Pfeffer, Kittridge, Hutchinson and oiners of Anson's colts. So far as concerns players not reserved by contract options the league will protect them, except- possibly in the case of Ruste, who President Day of New York says will play with the giants again or nowhere. The conference continued until late tonight with the situation of affairs unchanged. The twelve club organization is settled. Nobody questions this.

The trouble lies in the arrangement details, Columbus held out for $20,000, but it was arranged to give her $18,000 and this amount will have to satisfy her men. Milwaukee, whieh club outside of Chicago was the only one not in the "squeeze," will get the amount paid for ite franchise, $7,000, and no more. As to what the Boston and Philadelphia association people will receive it is a malter of the merest conjeeture. The Quaker City men may pull out about $15,000 and Boston a sum in that neighborhood. President Young of the National league will doubtless be made president of the consolidated organization and Zack Phelps of the defunct association is to be given a soft berth.

The directors of the new organization will number seven; three from each division and the president, The backers of the Chicago club were never solicitous for a franchise in that American assocition but consented to enter it after constant and persistent importunities on the part of the association representatives. Oz all the clubs Chicago was the only one, with tie exception of Milwaultee, that bad no intimation of the deal that was pending. In response to a telegram from President Phelps of the association, George H. Williams, president of the Chicago club, went to Louisville. He was told that there was some scheme afoot but he was led to belteve that it could be blocked by prompt and vigorous measures.

At that time, however, Phelps was in full possession of all the inside facts connected with the tormation af the new league. President Williams was given to understand that St Louis' acquiescence in the scheme was brought abcut by the representation of George Wagner of the Athietic club of Philadelphia. He immediately started for Philadelphia to ascertain just exactly how the land lay. Arriving there he met J. Earl Wagner, who, like himself, was In entire ignorance of the situation.

He then went to Baltimore, where he met President Von der Horst of the Baltimore club. The latter declared that he would rather see two organizations of eight clubs each, but in order to protect his own Interests be had given his tacit consent to the scheme, but that he would not be a party to any agreement which was not satisfactory to the Chicago club. It is not possible to get 8 soul to divulge the name of the consolidated organization but it is possible it will be christened the American league. A few of the old league men are in favor of continuing the name the National league and have sufficient numbers to vote it through if they insist. Enat the new organization will play Sunday games in the association cities is no longer a matter of doubt.

This caused something of wrangle but the league men were drawn to it solely through greed for the "shekels." Chicago, Philadelpbia, New York, Boston, Cleveland and Washington will undor no circumstances play Sunday ball at home. It is now understood that each club will be allowed to reserve fifteen players, The remainder are to be apportioned by an uninterested committee. The schedule will consist of 144 games, six to be played at nome and six abroad. Fred Pfeffer of the old Chicago club will no longer play in that city. New York wants him and may get bim.

Manager Gus Schmelz of the frozeu out Columbus club will manage the St. Louis team for Chris Von der Ahe, KANSAS BOYS CHAMPIONS. Baker University Foot Team Defeated After a Great Struggle, to the Kansas City Times LAWRENCE, Dec. last game in the triangular intercollegiate foot ball series was won this afternoon by Kansas state universityfrom Baker university--by the score to 0. This gives Kansas university the pennant, as its team has won every game played this season.

The features of the game were the fine work of Goodall and Hosking for Baker and the running of Sherman, tackling of Dobson, punting of Hogg and bucking the center and running of Champlin. Three times did Baker get the ball within two yards of the Kansas university goal line when the Kansas university boys got it and carried it back each time. The game was witnessed by over 2,000 people, three car loads of Baker students being among those present. Following were the positions or the players: K. 8.

By steady bucking of the center Baker went to within two yards of the Kansas university goal, when it lost the ball on four downs and Hogg punted it thirty-five yaras. Baker got it and by steady gains carried it back, when a spiendid run by Dobson gained fifteen yards for Kansas university.

Again Baker went nearly to the Kansas university goal line, when Kansas university got the bail and Hogg punted it back into the fieldBaker again worked the ball nearly to the Kansas university goal, but lost it and Sherman made beautiful play, carrying the ball far back into the feld. The ball died at the end of the first half within ten yards of the center of the fleld with the score 0--0. In the second half Kansas university got the ball and by steadily bucking the center with Champlin and Hogg and a magnificent run by Sherman sent the ball nearly to the Baker goal line, when Champlin bucked tire center and went across, scoring the first touch down and making the score 4-0, Hogg failing to kick a goal. Again by steady work in bucking the center Kansas university gained (slowly. Then Sherman got the ball and by magnificent run made touch down after going a third the way across the fleid, Hogg again failed to kick a difficult goal.

Time was 800n called and the game stood in favor of Kansas state university 8-0. ALL EYES ON THE CONFERENCE, The Fate of Base Ball in the West De- pends on the Result of Its Labors, The work of the peace conference in session at Indianapolis 1s being watched with much interest by President Speas and others connected with base ball matters in Kansas City. Upon the outcome of the conference hinges base.ball in the west next season, and -if the big twelve club league is formed the Western association will have the opportunity of forming what may be the strongest base ball organization the west has ever seen. The dispatches indicate that the twelve club league plan wIll surely go through and that Columbus ant Louisville are certain 10 to be dropped from the American association. With Milwaukee -already floundering about in deep uncertainty and with the western towns which can be counted on to put in good clubs "an eight club league could be formed under most favorable circumstances.

If the twelve club league is started, a meeting to consider the rejavenation off the western will probably be called soon after the announcement of the fact. BILLY WOODS DEFEATED, The Denver Pugilist Loses a Long Battle With Jde Choynski, SAN Francisco, Dec. of the most important netic events that have taken place on the Paciffe year was the contest tonight between Billy Woods of Denver and Joe Choynski of San Francisco at the Pacific club, for a purse of $4,000. Despite his unbroken record of victories, Woods was at the short end of the betting, the odds being 100 to 65 on Choynski. Woods had 1 the advantage 10 weight, height and reach.

He weighed 181 pounds to Choyaski's 172. In the first round Choynski drew first blood and secured the first knock -down. In the second Woods did most of the leading, but was more wary.

Woods parried a couple of leads, but got another short left on the nose. Woods punched Joe twice with his right on the back, but his blows seldom landed fairly.

Mr. Biscock Proposes to Make the Plea That Mr. Hill Has Forfeited His Rights by Retaining the Governorship The Brice Case-Mr.

White of Louisiana Also in Danger -Blaine's L'eatenant, Manley of Maine, Encourages the Admirers of the Secretary to Hope-Louisiana's Split Permanent. WASHINGTON, D. Dee. 17. -The published statements that the republican senators have virtually decided to the seats of Senators HIll, Brice and content, attracted some attention among the senators today.

Careful questioning fails to disclose anything like an organized movement in that direction and in fact is appears that the republican senators have as yet given the subject little thought. So far as Senator Hill's seat is concerned it 1s believed when- he presents himself to take the oath of office an objection may be forthcoming from his colleague, Senator Hiscock, based on the charge that Senator Hill has lost title to his seat by abandonment. The question 80 raised would De purely legal A republican senator today said the contention in regard to Governor Hill's case will De substantially as follows: "That his continuing to bold after March 4, 1891 (when he was entitled to be senator), an office admittedly incompatible with senatorship, operated as a renunciation of the latter, and that it it has not already done so an important question is presented as to how long a person thus situated could hold the governorship and keep the senatorship position vacant." The foundation for the story touching Mr. Brice's seat seems (so far as the senator is concerned) to be confinea to a few remarks made by Senator Sherman when the credentials were presented. As to Senator White of Louisiana it can not be learned that there is any Intention on the part of the republican leaders to make a contest based upon charges of illexal voting.

THE SPLIT COMPLETE, Anti-Lottery Democrats of Louisiana Nom- rights." BLAINE MEN FEELING GOOD, The Maine Man's Lieutonant Said to Have Declared That He Will Run. a Fall State Ticket. BATON ROUGE, LA, Dec. Adams anti-lottery state convention was called to order at 10:30 o'clock this morning. New Orleans was represented by numerous delegates who were defeated in the primaries.

Parkerson sat with the Twelfth ward delegation. Theodore S. Wilkinson was made permanent chairman. Thomas S. Adams was nominated for governor but- declined according to a prearranged plan.

After several hours' conference the following state ticket WAS nominated: For governor, Murphy J. Foster; lieutenant governor, Charles P'arlange; secretary of state, Thomas S. Adams: treasurer, John Pickett: attorney general, Milton J. Cuuningham, and superintendent of education, A. Lalarge.

Tue rolls of the convention show that thirty-six parishes and three Now Orleans wards were represented. In his speech on taking the chair Mr. Wilkinson said that he was glad to have been selected as chairman of the democratic convention. Aliens and gamblers had seized on the machinery of the party and expected this convention to recognize them as the democratic party. He was ready 10 go before the people ou tho issue raised aud leave the people to decide which was the regular convention of the party.

He had no fear of what the decision of the people would be. He attacked the lottery and charged that MeEnery and the lottery were one. His mention of Poster's name, "the inan who had led the fight in the legislature," was received with wild applause, and the speaker's sarcastic insinuatione against the state supreme court was likewise applauded. The McEnery convention assembled at Pike's ball at noon. The committee on credentials not being prepared to report, after appointing a committee of live on permanent organization, the convention took a recess until 5 o'clock, at which time it adjourned until noon tomorrow.

During the day the chairman received the following from Congressman Boatner from Washington: show you have offered enougn for harmony. Further proposals would indicate weakness. suggest strong resolutions, declaring that the lottery question is used as a blind to conceal the designs of the opposition leaders to establish an oligarchy and perpetuate their power. Denounce threats of violence and fraudulent. use of the governor's power over returning officers; declare the question at issue the preservation of personal libery in Louisiana; put the responsibility of failure to settle by white primaries on the opposition, and leave the result to the manhood of Louisiana, who can never be frightened or cheated out of their WASHINGTON, D.

Dec. the visitors to this city during the past, week was the Hon. Joseph Mauley of Augusta, Secretary Blaine's chief lieutenant and most intimate triend. During his two days' stay here he spent most of his time with the secretary of state. What the two talked of is not, of course, certainly known, but its possible tenor may be gathered from what fol owed afterward between Mr.

Manley and certain leading republicans! who escorted Mr. Manley ot the depot on last Tuesday noon. These men, who were all for Blaine, if he should be in the race, pressed Mr. Manley for an expression of Secretary Blaine's intentions. He replied that while Mr.

Blaine was not a candidate tor the presidency in the sense he was In 1876 and was not asking, and would not ask, any oue to support him, he would not refuse the nomination if it were tendered to him, his position now being the same as it was in 1880 and 1884. This stereotyped reply did not satisfy the capital city politicians, and they sisted on something more explicit Oue ol them, a recognized power In the local republican party and also a recognizod and warm friend of Mr. Blaine, declared bluntly: "Mr. Manley, this district will of course elect two delegates to the next national convention. Now we can elect the Braine delegates, as we have tho unquestioned power to do so, but we do not care to do it if Mr.

Blaine will not permit the use of his name. Ir he will do that we will give him two votes as certain as the day of the convention comes." Mr. Manley smiled at the speaker's earnestness and replied: "Go ahead, gentlemen, and choose Blaine delegates. The old man is in the race and to stay. He is certain to be nominated, aud that without the least friction.

"I speak by the card." Andrew Gleason, the rich contraetor who last summer made to Mr. Clarkson the first the campaign of 1892, says with smile as broad as his brogue that "Tire old man is in the PROHIBITION'S CONVENTION. St. Louis Captures the National Honors- The Date and Rapresentation. CHICAGO, Dec.

national prohibition committee met here today for the purpose of deciding upon the time and place for holding the next national convention to nominate condidates for president and vice president of the United States. The Hon. Samuel Dickie of Albion, national chairman, presided and about eighty-five delegates were present, including ex-Governor John P. St. John of Kansas.

Prayer was offered by the Rev Mr. Richardson of Kansas. The cities whose claims were presented were Atianta, Indianapolis, Lincoln, New York city, Cleveland, Cincinnati, St. Louis and Nashville, Toon. The contest lay between Cleveland, and St.

Louis and it took twelve ballots to decide. Either Cieveland or Cincinnati could have been chosen if the Ohio delegates bad been at any time solid for either, but the division in the ranks of the state gave the choice to St. Louis on the twelfth ballot. Thirty-three rotes were cast and seventeen were necessary for 8 choice. At one time Cincinnati received the required number and was declared the choice of the committee, but on investigation it was found that thirty-four votes had been cast, while there were but thirtythree voters in the room.

The vote was consequently declared off and on the succeeding ballots Cincinnati lost until on the twelfth bailot she received but three votes. The basis of representation was made double the congressional representation according to the new apportionment, two delegates for the District of Columbia and one for every 1,000 votes cast for Fisk in 1888. June 29 and 30 next were the dates fixed.

There are several select committee: (principally to conduct investigations; during the last congress that will be lopped off this year.

The speaker was not at the capitol today. He has a heavy cold and spent the day in his rooms at the Metropolitan working part of the time on the committees. There has been some talk of the announcement of a few of the most important committees in advance of the appointment of the others, but a number of members who were copsulted on the subject found a great many objections to this plan and said that they were reasonably sure it would -not be adopted. The only precedent in recent years for this course was established by Speaker Reed, who, December 9, 1889, announced the committees cu elections, ways and means, appropriations, manufactures and mileage.
