FORGERY IS ALLEGED. Bishop Hare Springs Sensation in Di- vorce Law Contest. Sioux Falls, S. D.,, April 9.—The first genuine sensation in the effort to invoke the referendum and thus pre- vent the new divorce law taking effect for two years and the vigorous fight by the element scandalized by the notorious migratory divorce industry of this city and state has been sprung by Bishop W. H. Hare of the Episco- pal church of the state. The prelate sent the following letter to local news- papers: “It may save future trouble if you your colmns, to glve notice that I know, on authority, that at least one name and that of a prominent lawyer has been attached to the petition for the referendum of the divorce law without his authority and that it is proposed to expose such forgery by obtaining and circulating photographic copies of petitions sus- pected of containing forgeries and also to prosecute forgers if by their hand- writing or otherwise they can be dis- covered. Signed, W. H. Hare, in be- half of the committee.” GENERAL BARRILLAS SLAIN Former President of Guatemala Vic- tim of Assassin. City of Mexico, April 9.—General Manuel Lizadro Barrillas, former pres- ident of Guatemala, was assassinated while on a street car in this city. He was on his way to supper when as the car stopped a young man about seventeen years of age climbed aboard and, rushing to the general, stabbed him twice, the first blow severing the jugular vein, the second cutting his face. He died instantly. The assassin was captured. He save his name as Jose Bstrada and his home as Ocos, Guatemala. The members of the Guatemalan colony, many of whom formerly lived in Ocos, know of no such name and do not recognize the youth, who is doubtless a paid assassin. Former President Barrillas was gen- erally considered as strongly opposed to the present government of Guate- mala. He was sixty-two years old and was a strong possibility for the next presidency of the country.

AN INTEGRAL PART OF CUBA Article 2 of the Treaty of Paris Held by Highest Tribunal to Refer Only to the lIslands in the Vicinity of Porto Rico. Washington, April 9.—That the Isle of Pines is not American territory has been officially and judicially declared by the supreme court of the United States. The decision was rendered in the famous case of Edward J. Pearcy vs. Nevada N. Stranahan, collector of the port at New York, and the opinion of the court was announced by Chief Justice Fuller, who said that up to the Paris treaty the Isle of Pines had been considered as an integral part of Cuba and that it could not be held to be covered by article 2 of that treaty, which included only islands in the vicinity of Porto Rico. The case originated in connection with the importation of a few boxes | of clgars hy Pearcy in September, 1903, but its hearing by the court was from time to time postponed in the hope that the status of the island might be definitely fixed by legisla- tlon or diplomacy. The cigars were made in the Isle of Pines of tobacco grown there and when they arrived Pearcy refused to pay duty on the ground that they were of domestic origin. The collector thereupon seized them and Pearcy appealed to the United States circuit court, where he secured no relief, as that court sus- tained a demurrer filed by the govern- ment and dismissed the case. He promptly brought the case to the supreme court, where the decree of the lower court was affirmed. ACCE}ED REBATES. Great Northern Found Guilty by a Jury at Minneapolis. Minneapolis, April 9.—Guilty of ac- cepting rebates was the verdict against the Great Northern railroad in the United States district court in this city after the jury had been out exactly four minutes.

No evidence was offered in the case, the attorneys of the railroad company admitting the statement of facts as offered by the prosecuting attorney, Paul Ewart. for the government. The object of thus allowing the case to be decided agaiust it is to provide grounds for an immediate appeal to the higher court and get the case into the May term of the United States circuit court of appeals.
