The Theatrical Robber Declares That
He Has Money Buried.
WILL nor TELL WHERE IT IS
He Will Insist on Extradition Papers Be-
fore Retugning to Matteawan —— Bee
ward of 82,250 Must Be Paid, Too,
Before He Can Be Taken.
‘ NEW, YORK, April 18.—0liver Curtis
. Perry, notorious express train robber. jail
breaker and the last captured convict of
the quintet that escaped from the state
criminal insane asylum at Matteawan one
week ago today, was in a cheerful mood
when he awoke in the Hudson county jail,
in Jersey City.'
He was not the broken down tramp of
yesterday, when in the narrow, dirty cell
in the Weehawken prison he told, for the
first time, the story of his escape from
Matteawan.
Perry occupied cell 2 in ward 3 last
night and had for his companion Paul
Genz, who murdered Clara Arnheim in
Hoboken several months ago. The mur-
derer at once evidenced a strong attach-
ment for the train robber and studiously
ministered to his wants.
When Perry awoke, he was assisted to
;the. corridor, and Murderer Genz dressed
the convict’s feet with the skill of a sur-
geon. Perry in the meantime smoked a
cigar.
A reporter communicated with Perry.
“I shall not go back to Matteawan and
its horrors until I am compelled to, ” he
declared hotly. ”When I go there, it will
be through extradition and by no other
process. I’m being treated humanely now,
and I like it.”
Perry’s Hidden Treasure.
Perry was asked concerning his treas-
ure, said to be secreted in the vicinity of
Little Falls. He admitted that he had a
sum of money hidden away, but he refused
to tell where or how much it amounted to.
”I will say this much." said Perry.
' “An express company has stated that all
that was taken by me was $5,000. Now,
it amounted to a great deal more, but how
much I won’t say.”
Perry gave the impression that the treas-
ure was buried farther west than Little
Falls.
Warden Mitchell said that Dr. Lamb,‘
one of the officials of MatteaWan who
identified Perry at the jail last night, left
orders for Keeper James Coyle, who had
earlier seen the outlaw, to report immedi-
ately to the asylum.
“When Coyle comes here again, ” said
Warden Mitchell, “1 shall tell him to go
home. That means that no attempt will
be made to take Perry away until the reg-
ular period for extradition elapses. ”
Perry had a stormy interview with
Keeper Coyle last night. When he saw the
keeper, he shouted:
”Say, Coyle, I want to tell you‘ that if
I’m put in the isolated Ward and treated
as I have been hitherto there’ll be trouble.
I want to give you and the others fair
warning. I shall submit no longer. If it
comes to the worst, some one will suffer!”
The outlaw is well fed and will have
fully recovered in a few days.
Simon Kelly, the chief of police and
picturesque mayor of Weehawken, called
at the jail today and told Warden Mitchell
not to deliver Perry to the asylum author-
ities until the $2, 250 reward had been paid
over to Detective Edward J. CliiIord and
Policeman McAleece, who captured the
outlaw.
After a Requisition.
POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y., April 18.—Dr.
R. B. Lamb, who was sent to Weehawken
last night after Convict Oliver C. Perry,
came back to the Matteawan asylum on
learning that Perry would not be allowed
to, leave. New- Jersey without requisition
papers. '
This morning Superintendent Allison of
the asylum prepared the necessary aflida-
vits and other papers, which were sent tc
Albany today for the governor’s signature.
Detective Clifi'ord, who captured Perry,
is under Chief Humphrey of the New York
Central system. The chief said today:
“As soon as I learned that a rowboat
had been stolen from Low point the night
after the escape I notified Detectives Clif-
ford, Humphrey and Betts, who are on the
West Shore division, that one or more oi
the men might have taken the West Shore
road, and cautioned them to watch espe-.
cially in the vicinity of Weehawken, which
is a great resort for tramps.
“By agreement amongsihemselves, Clif-
ford, Humphrey and Betts divided the dis-
trict into three sections, each covering a
part. As is customary under such circum-
stances, the reward, I presume, will be
divided among them. ”
Rough Passage of the Lyndhurst.
BATAVIA, April 18,—The British ship
Lyndhurst, Captain Martin, which sailed
from New York, Dec. 3, for this port, has
arrived here and reports that she encoun-
tered very heavy weather on the passage.
Her decks were swept, and the boats and
everything movable were washed away. It
was found necessary to jettison part of the
cargo in order to save the vessel.
Spreekels' Refinery Starts Up.
PHILADELPHIA, April 18.—Spreckels’
sugar refinery. which had been closed for
about two weeks by order of the Sugar
trust, by which it is controlled, has start-
' ed to run again. The resumption of work
is looked upon as a steady one. The plant
is running on nearly full time, but with
a reduced force.
Indian Land Squatters Must Go.
Sr. LOUIS. April 18.-A special from
Guthrie, 0. T., says General Thomas of

Indians belonging to the Sac and _ Fox
agency shall be warned and where neces
sary arrested. ”

LI HUNG CHANG GOES HOME.
Last Doubt of the Fact That the War Is
Ended Has Been Dissipated—English
Comments on the Conditions of
Peace Imposed by Japan.
WASHINGTON, April 18.—The Chinese
imperial edict sent from Tien-tsin is ac-
cepted among ofl‘icials and diplomats here
as setting at rest the conflicting reports as
to final terms of peace and as showing
that the first reports via London were in-
accurate in their details.
The indemnity of 200,000, 000 taels is a
.compromise. Japan first demanded 300,-
000,000 taels, but on the solicitation of
Prince Li threw ofi 100,000,000. At the
Chinese legation it is stated that the tael
varies in value, but that the present value
of the customs or treasury tael, which is
"undoubtedly the one in which payment
will be made is $1.50 in Mexican silvar, or
about 75 cents in gold. This would make
the indemnity equivalent to $300,000,000
Mexican silver, or $150,000,000 in gold.
The Mexican trade dollar is the current
coin. of China, and the basisof calculation,
so that the belief is very strong, though :
information on the subject is lacking, that
the payment will be in silver.
Japan’s New Territory.
The edict that Japan is to occupy the
Lian-Tong peninsula up to the fortieth de-
gree of latitude settles the important point
that she is to have the great fortress of
Port Arthur and the immediately sur-
rounding territory, as foreshadowed in
these dispatches. The Lian-Tong penin-
sula is a small point of land jutting south-
ward into the gulf of Pcchili, with Port
Arthur at its extreme point. The fortieth
degree of latitude cuts across the main-
land where the little peninsula. broadens
into the mainland of Manchuria. This
lower peninsula has the shape of a sword
and is known as “regent’s sw0rd.” The
edict does not state whether Japan gets
this acquisition permanently or until the
indemnity is paid. She has contended on
having it permanently, as it would give
Japan command of the gulf of Pechili
leading to Peking. If the occupation is
temporary, it will give Japan a military
command over China as long as the occu-
pation lasts. The duration of the occu-
pancy is most important, and on this point
undoubtedly will depend any action Euro-
pean powers may take. _
The permanent occupation of the island
of Formosa has been settled for some time.
The opening of Peking and four new ports
of commerce marks the introduction of
modern methods into the interior of China.
Japan has gained the privilege of es-
tablishing cotton and other factories in
China, but it remains to be seen whethdr
Japanese capital will invest in these on-
terprises or the Chinese buy these modern
fabrics.
The edict makes a significant omission
as to the reported Japan-China alliance,
oflensive and defensive, which, if consum-
mated, would have given “the orient to
the orientals. ” The Japanese and Chinese
officials in Washington have never credited
the report of this alliance.
The Story Via London.
LONDON, April 18. —A dispatch from
Tokyo to the Central News today states
that the treaty of peace betwaen China
and Japan was signed this morning. The
terms of the settlement, the dispatch
states, will probably not be divulged until
the treaty is ratified.
A dispatch to the Central News from
Tokyo says that peace ratifications will be
exchanged .within three weeks, and that
the armistice has been extended to mid-
night on May 8. -
A dispatch to The Star from Tien-tsin
says an imperial proclamation was issued
authorizing Li Hung Chang to sign- a
treaty of peace with Japan guaranteeing
the payment of 200,000,000 taels indem-
nity.
By the proclamation Li Hung Chang
was empowered to cede to the Japanese
the island of Formosa and the peninsula
of Lian-Tong to the fortieth degree of lati-
tude, to sanction the opening of five new
commercial parts, including Peking, and
to give Japan the power to open cotton
factories and other industries in China.
B the terms of the proclamation the
im t dues at the open ports are not to
exceed 2 per cent.
Another imperial proclamation has been
issued, granting sick leave to the viceroy
of Canton. and ordering him to retire to
his native province.
The Pall Mall Gazette, commenting on
the terms of peace between China and
Japan, as defined by the imperial edict
just issued in Peking, says the conditions
are better than those mentioned in The
Times dispatches yesterday, but the ces-
sion of Formosa will surely displease Eng-
land, while the cession of Port Arthur
will be objected to by Russia. “Our gov-
ernment," The Gazette says, “may safely
be depended upon to do nothing, however,
unless the other powers take action. ”
A Jap Criticisss Our Civilization.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 18. —-A Japanese
resident of this city sends the following
communication to a local paper: “I came
from the far cast a few months ago, and
my purpose was to see what your civilized
nation was doing. Since I arrived in this
city, reading your valuable paper every
day, I am much surprised because murder
is almost a daily occurrence in this coun-
try, besldcs robbery, reverend doctors rob-
bing and eloplng with other men’s wives.
etc. Such events occurred every day,
shocking murderln church—that's awful,
awful—where is civilimtion, where is
Christianity, where is James Creelman?
"P. S.—Pleass send word to J. Creel-
man that he ought to be a little more care-
ful. when he accuses other nations next
time.” fl
‘Wh'st Yokohama Says Japan Gets. .
YOKOHAMA, April 18.—The Jiji, news-
paper,'states that the terms of the peace
concluded between China and Japan in-
clude the cession of the territory from the
Yalu to the Lion rivers, on the southern
portion of the Liau-Tong peninsula, on
which Port Arthur and the Regent’s
Sword are situated, and including Ylnkow,
Hai-Cheng and Chu-Lien-Cheng; also the
island of Formosa and the Pescadores is-
lands, an indemnity of 200,000,000 taels,
payable in six years; the abolition of Chi-
nese extra territoriality, the preservation
of JapaneSe extraterritoriality and certain
commercial privileges for Japan.
