Richmond, Va. (Special).—A more vigorous policy was adopted in the Richmond Police Court in the infliction of punishment on person* who have attempted to interfere with the operation of the cars during the strike. In place of the small fines and bond which have hitherto been imposed several persons were sentenced to 60 days

in jail

The contest is now getting to be one of endurance and it is merely a question of how long it will be necessary to keep the troops here to maintain order. The effect of the ftrike on business is to practically paralyse it and some merchant* have been compelled to reduce their forces. Broad Street in the shopping district was deserted. All over the city and in every line of business the deadening effects of the strike are being felt. • Officials of the company are still firm their determination rot to re-employ any members of the union except as individuals and no compromise will be entertained.

New York (Special).—A woman in black ttfpped deliberately in from of a tram a mile south of the White Plains Station. It threw her yo feet into the air and 30 feet west of the tracks.

With Case! Treaty. The officials at the State Department sBcnXurg »qt a jusuuuioddnip tgjdxa of President Marroquin, of Colombia, in his message to the Colombian Congress in regard to the ratification of the Panama Canal Treaty. It is hardly as vigor ous as was expected, but it has not discouraged the friends of the treaty by

any means.

At the last Cabinet meeting Secretary Hay stated that he considered the prospects for ratification increasing daily, and the President went to Oyster Bay feeling that before lorg Colombia u-ou!d | act favorably on the agreement. Charge d’Affaires Rerron. of the Colombian Legation, feels confident that, despite the election of Senor Valez as president of the Colombian Senate, who is represented as anticanal the treaty is growing in favor^in the Congress. He believes that Senor Valez has been misrepresented as to his opposition to the treaty and that he favors the construction of the canal by the United States, but is not satisfied with every feature of

the treaty.

It has also been learned in Washington that opposition to the canal and its ownership by the United State* have greatly misrepresented the terms of the treaty, leading the credulous Colombia public to believe that Colombia was ceding territory to the United States and giving away its life for a mere bagatelle. Now that the actual terms of the Ifcaty are becoming known, a decided change is com mg over the people, and a favorable sentiment i< spreading among the people, which will undoubted!*- have a good effect on the Colombian Congress. The officials-here know full well that the South American people act slowly, and are contenting themselves by believing that a change is in progress in Colbomia. and that in due time the treaty

srill be ratified.

Wiley Anette and George McKinney, Miller county negroes, who had been arrested and lodged in jail for the rfiurder last Saturday night of F. S.

groes were lodged.

He did as commanded under protest, and the three negroes were dragged front the jail, the prisoner of Tucker making his escape during the excitement.

At first it was decided that the petition should not be presented. because it might be resented by the government of Russia and lead to a response that would cause a break in the relations of the two countries However, the first conclusion has been reconsidered, and by direction oi the President the petition will now go forward. What the result will be is problematical As indicated in the follosrir.g note from Secretary Hay td Simon Wolf, the presentation will probably be made to the Russian government through the United States charge at St. Petersburg. The note reads: "Dear Sir:—The President has concluded to transmit to the Russian government the pclit^n of which you presented him a draft on the 15th of this month. The matter which he had to consider most seriously was whether or not such a proceeding would be to the advantage ol your persecuted and outraged coreligionists in Russia. On this point he has decided to accept your opinion and that of the numerous and'intelligent groups 6T American citizens of the Jewish faith whom you represent. He requerts that vou will send him the petition in due form at your earliest -convenience. Of course, you will understand that the President cannot tell you what reception your petition srill meet with at the hands of the Russian government.’’ Nst Ready Is Open Nets. The negotiations with Otina for a trade treaty have reached a critical phase growing out of the demand of the United States and Japan for. the opening of additional ports in Man-

churia.

The Russian Government has professed to entertain no 'opposition to this demand, but the Gimcse coramisfioners now take the ground that the ports mentioned - in the demands— Monkdcn, Taku-Shan and Harbin— srill be opened to foreign trade cot now, but'in jhe future, when trade necessities seem to require it Therefore they propose to hold the matter in abeyance and conclude the trade convention without this section. The United States refuses to accept the suggestion, Japan takes the same position and English influence lean* in that direction. The negotiations are deadlocked, pending the contrivance of means by the three powers named to bring pressure to bear upon China. Mors Palet ter White fteate.
