BIG TRANSPORTATION SCHEME.
The Erie Canal T'ractIon Company Formed
to Use 1111- ctr-Fe Propulsion.
NEW YORK, April 6.—A big deal is be-
ing negotiated in Wall street that is potent
for good or evil to the freight shippers of
both the east and West.
A cash offer of over $2,000,000 has been
made by a leading banking house, repre—
lege of running canalbbatns on the Erie
canal by electric traction.
The exclusive fr:;nchise for electric frac-
tion on the canal belongs to the Cataract
General Electric ceinprxny, one of the
branches of the great Niagara Falls Pow-
er company. It gives the company the
5619 right to string wires along the tow-
path, erect powor houses, transmit cur-
rent for commercialpurposes and supply
electric current for running canalboats.
This right is good for 50 years.
The Cataract General Electric company
was formed to act as the distributing
agent for this power outside the counties
of Niagara and Erie.
In order to separate the future distribu-
tion of electricity for commercial purposes
and for canal uses, the Erie Canal Trac-
tion company was forum-d to assume all
the rights and. privileges. of running canal-
boats. The Camract' company owns all
the stock of the new companv. The offer
of the foreign syndicate is for the stock of
the Erie Canal Traction company only.
Several months ago experiments were
made at Tonawanda with a system of
towing canalboats by a small motor run-
ning on a cable. The motor ran success-
fully and towed several boats at good
speed. Many of its mechanical defects
have been remedied since then, and the
inventors claim that it is ready for oper—
ating the entire length of the canal. Con-
tracts have been made with Cooper, Hew-
itt & Co. for the construction of a cable-
way for the system from Tonawanda to
Buffalo, a. distance of 12 miles.
If this system be put into successful op
eration, the canal would bpcome the great
traflic route from the lakes to the sea-
board.
None of the Cataract Electric compa‘
ny’s officials will yet speak about the mat-
ter. Charlton H. Lewis of the Mutual
Life Insurance company is secretary and
treasurer of the Cataract company. When
asked about the reported sale, he said, “I
do not feel at liberty to discuss the matter
at this time.” Frank W. Hawley, vice
president, was equally reticent. He was
asked about the possibility of competition
with the trunk lines and replied that the
public would have to wait for develop-
ments.
BURGESS CONVICTED.
He Is Adjudged Guilty of a Cold Blooded
and Deliberate Murder.
AUBURN, N. Y., April 6.—Charles Bur-
gess has been convicted of murder in the
first degree for, the killing of Henry V.
Whitlock, a farmer, by whom he was em-
ployed in North Victory. Justice Dun-
well, who has been holding an extra ses-
sion of the supreme court for the past two
weeks, sentenced Burgess to be electrocut-
ed in Auburn prisonduring the week be-
ginning May 17.
The defense tried to prove that the prin-
oner was insane, and much expert testimo
Dy was submitted, including many hypo-
' thetical questions.
The crime for which Burgess is to suffer
electrocution occurred on the night of
Ang. 6 last. Burgess was the “hired man"
on the farm of Henry V. Whitlock in
North Victory. Late at night he awoke
his employer and told him that the cows
had strayed into the corn and asked for
aid in driving them back to where they
were pastured. Whitlock arose and ac-
companied Burgess. When the employer
had stooped down to get through a fence,
Burgess struck him'in the head with an
ax, killing him instantly. The murderer
returned to the house and attempted to
criminally assault Mrs. Whltlock, at the
same time threatening to murder her if
she resisted. She succeeded, however, in
defeating him, whereupon he became
alarmed and fled. The woman crawled to
the house of a neighbor, and, half crazed,
told her story. Posscs were organized, and
after a. day’s search Burgess was found in
the barn of a friend, to whom be peace-
ably surrendered. ,
Indignation at the deliberate, cold
blooded manner in which the crime was
perpetrated nearly led to a lynching at the
time of his capture, and the same feeling
was revived at the trial and prevailed
throughout.
Shedd’s Alleged Dei’alcution.
POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y., April c.-——Dr. 0.
M. Shedd, the former imperial recorder oi
the Order of United Friends, who is charged
with grand larceny of funds of the order,
is still lying very ill at his home, with a
police officer constantly on guard over
him. He has been unable to get or bonds—

Shedd an extension of 20 days in which to

- Catalnns Want to Fight.
MADRID, April 6.-—News comes from
Barcelona, published in that city by The
Noticiero Universal, that a well known
commandant of volunteers, who took ac-
tive part against the Carlists in the late
war, has offered to raise 12,000 Catalans
to make war against the United States in
the event of the recognition of the bellig-
erency of the Cuban insurgents. All he
asks is that the Spanish authorities should
supply Mauser rifles and land his forces on
United States territory.

- hIlnister [Jill’s First Embarrass-

BERLIN, April 6.—Many persons high
in court circles, including Emperor Wil-
liam’s brother-ln-law, Duke Ernest Gun-
ther ~0f Schleswig-Holstein; Baron von
Schroeder, Prince Altenburg, Prince Ari-
bert of Anbalt and others, have subscribed
the sum of 360,000 marks, it is said, in an
effort to prevent. the Ol'lendorf publishing
house of Paris from publishing the sensa-
tional pamphlet entitled “A Revolution
From Above,” written by Dr. Fritz Fried-
mann, the lawyer who absconded from
this city, leaving debts to the amount of
1,000,000 marks, and taking with him
Nellie von Wildenfels, an actress.
Dr. Friedmann was counsel for the
court chamberlain, Von Kotze, who at
one time was believed to have been impli-
cated in the great court scandal resulting
from a series of anonymous communica-
tions being sent during a period of years
to various prominent oflicials and others.
The inside history of this scandal is said
to have been revealed in the pamphlet, and
other startling affairs connected with
court circles are believed to have been de-
scribed. The negotiations, however, are
understood to be still proceeding.
, Dr. Peters, the former imperial commis-
sioner in Africa, says that whatever the
result of the inquiry into his conduct he
will leave the German government service.
He will accept a post at the head of a se-
lect force. in Somaliland, in behalf ofa
New York and Boston syndicate, at a sal-
ary of $20,000 a year.
Since Emperor William’s departure for
Italy and Prince Hohenlohe’s’ journey to
Baden-Baden political excitement has
subsided rapidly, and the press of all par-
ties discuss .ovents in England, France
and Italy dispassionately and impartially
in the absence of any official inspiration.
Nevertheless, the emperor keeps a. firm
hand on the government tiller. At Genoa,
Naples and Palermo he had, from on
board the imperial yacht Hohenzollern,
directed telegraphic communication with
the Berlin foreign office and sent hun-
dreds of dispatches and instructions on
all important matters to high officials and
army officers.
No German Aid For Boers.
The Matabele rising is regarded as 'a
dangerous development, but it has not
stirred the German press, in spite of the
prevalent belief that the revolt is not un-
welcome to those who are desirous of see-
ing the British forces in South Africa re-.
enforced. The Hamburger Correspondence
publishes a .letter from a writer who is
evidently behind the scenes and who has
declared that the mission of Dr. W. J.
Leyds, the secretary of state for the Trans-
vaal, so far as it concerned enlisting Ger-
many’s active support of that republic, has
failed, and that Germany will do nothing,
as she does not desire a protectorate dver
the Transvaal. As the North German
Gazette has reproduced this statement, it
may be regarded as official.
Immediately on his refurn from Amer-
ica, Otto Rechslin of Baltimore was arrest-
ed here on Wednesday on charges of incen~
diarism and perjury committed at Stor~
kow, Prussia, before his emigration.
'Mr. Uhl, the United States embassador,
denies having had an interview on the
emigration question on leaving New York.
The so called interview was reprinted ex-
tensively here and is embarrassing his po-
sition [from the start. He has leased a
house at 8 Thiergarten-Strasse and will
make no change in the embassy for the
present.
Julius Muth, the United States consul
at Madgeburg, the center of the German
beet sugar industry, says that the reich-
stag will pass a sugar bill Which will cheap-
en sugar in America, but will kill the in-
fant beet sugar industry of Nebraska-and

The Bermuda. Incident Overrated.
PUERTO CoacrEz, Honduras, April 6..—
In relation to the Bermuda affair it is
stated that the government of Honduras
seized some cartridges only, there being
no intention of retaining possession of the
steamship. Consequently the incident is
regarded as having been greatly overrated
from an international standpoint.

at the obstacle the horse’s feet slipped.
Mr. Gould fell out of the saddle headiore-
