Application of the Illinois Authorities for the Extradition of Martin Burke. George A. H. Baker, of the state attorney's office of Illinois, arrived in this city last night, were presented to the Department of State immediately upon the beginning of business this morning. They have already been examined in o preliminary way, and have been found to be in regular legal form. There will be no difficulty in the issu- ance of the extradition warrant and no delay except that caused by the absence for the day of the President, whose signature is re- — to the warrant. If he returns to-night ‘is will be obtained, and Mr. Baker will start back for Chicago to-morrow, and will proceed thence to Winnipeg. He says that the State department officials have smoothed his way and done everything to facilitate the transac- tion of his business. Mr. Baker seemed to be rather mistrustful of legal delays in the Cana- = 7 | dian courts, where, he believes, the parties are inclined to go further than a mere inquiry into the legal form of the extradition warrant and its compliance with treaty stipulations, and to undertake to go into the merits of the case and the sufliciency of the proof ot murder. CONSUL DOTY SEEKING HEALTH. The Young American Who Isto Marry # Beautiful Tahitan Princess. Tha barkentine Tropic Bird arrived at San Francisco yesterday from Tahiti. Among her passengers is United States Consul J, L. Doty, who has been suffering from fever for the past two months and has left the islands tempor- arily for the benefit of his health. The affairs at the islands ure quiet. The French are ac- tively strengthening their foothold on the neighboring islands, having assumed control over Reita group, about eighty miles from Tahiti. Mr. Doty is the fortunate gentleman who was reported a month ago as having captured the heartand hand of a Tahitan lady, the blond, beautiful and accomplished Princess Polona, having fora father Lord Dacey, an English nobleman who married a native prin- cess twenty years ago. Among the many ad- mirers of Princess Polona was the earl of Dud- ley, whom the bright young American van- uished im the contest for the prize. Mr, joty’s family was formerly prominent in Brooklyn, before the death of its head. When a boy Consul Doty served as a page in the Senate, where Senator Bayard took a fancy to! him, afterward securing his appointment by Mr. ‘Cleveland as consul to Tahiti. see The Stolen Seaton Silverware. Saturday afternoon, in the Police Court, Fer- dinand Lowenstein, the dealer in second-hand gold and silver, was placed on trial charged with receiving 120 worth of silverware alleged to have been stolen from the residence of Mr. Malcolm Seaton, of No. 1819 F street north- west, Mr, Seaton testified to the robbery that oc- curred at his sister's house. He said that there was & ceanty of silverware in the storeroom packed ina box. Among the articles was a tea- pot, a vase, &c. Inspector Block produced an armful of broken silverware and witness was certain that some of the goods were parts of the stolen property. A young man, who gave his name as Frank Brainard, testified that he “got” the silver- ware from’ No, 1738 I street, where it was ina wooden box, and he took it to Lowenstein’s tortell. sold the large vase to Lewen- tei for $9.60. % When questioned by the court the witness, Brainerd, said that he had sold articles of sil- verware several times, He said he lived in the ; house of Mrs. Monroe, the sister of Mr. Seaton. He swore that his name was Frank Brainerd. When questioned by Mr. Shillington witness said he hed to Mr. Lowenstein when he sold him the silverware. Mr. Desio, the jeweler, testified that he purchased some of the silver in question and paid Lowenstein $88.26 for it. Inspector Block gave evidence concerning the price paid for the silver by the defendant and the amount he received for it from Mr, —— The case was then continued until to- Ye et A Touching Scene at Fourdry Church.

ALL THE ACCUSED EXCEPT COUGHLIN EXPRESS THEMSELVES READY FOR AN IMMEDIATE TRIAL— THE GRAND 3URY DID NOT MEET TO-DAY— BURKE'S EXTRADITION. Cutcaco, June 24.—Superintendent Hubbard yesterday received a photograph of Martin Burke from Winnipeg. It represents » rather vicjous and dangerous person. The lines of the face are strong and harsh, There was a week's growth of beard when the photograph was taken. ‘That's the man,” said the chief, with evident satisfaction and as if imply- ing that he would be able to solve the whole mystery of the Cro- nin murder through Burke's aid. Asked about the charge made aguinst Burke of being concerned in the Gallagher murder, the super- intendent said: “I thought it was all cleared up at the time of the coroner's inquest, How- ever, we have Burke now and there will be time enough to inquire into his complicity in this case, We want the other Cronin murders now. THE DATE OF TRIAL UNCERTAIN. It is altogether indefinite when the suspected murderers of Dr. Cronin will be brought to trial, but to-day’s proceedings in Judge Shep- 's court would indicate that the prosecution few weeks’ investigation yet before : ing the’ suspects before the criminal tribunal. Coughlin, O'Sullivan, and Woodruff were ail marched into Judge Shephard’s court this morning and asked if they were ready for trial and if they desired their case set for any particular date. “Iam ready for trial at any time,” ded oung Woodruff, ‘and the sooner the better. don't think Ican gain anything by postpone- ment, and I may have a better show for justice in an immediate trial. I am now, your honor.” “What have you to say Mr. O'Sullivan?” said the judge. 0 “I suppose I am as wel repared to to trial now as I will ever be,” roepenied the bos, man. ‘It does not make much difference to me when the trial is set for. I am ready at any time.” COUGHLIN NOT READY. “Are you prepared for trial?” asked the judge, addressing Coughlin. tied replied..the ex-detective, “I am not. My lawyer, W. 8. Forrest, is going to be very busy for a week or two and says he cannot pos- sibly attend to my case now. For that reason principally I would preter that my trial be not yet set for any particular date.” “That will do,” said the judge, ‘The court will not at present set the date upon which you will be required to answer the charges against you, ‘The prisoners retired, and after Judge Shey hard had conferred for a minute with the state’s attorney the court proceeded to other business. It is now understood that no date will be set for the trial until after the extradi- tion of Martin Burke. the Winnipeg suspect, as the evidence against him is really stronger than against any of the indicted men. NOT THE RIGHT MAN. A Frankfort, Ind,, special says: Capt. Schuet- tler and Frank Scanlon arrived here at 8:15 a. m. from Chicago, and Mr. Scanlon at once de- cided that the suspect arrested at this place | was tiot Cooney. He admitted, however, that | the resemblance was striking. The man turns out to be Patrick Donahue, of Green Castle, Ind. He is anintelligent Irishman and a mem- ber of the Land League, but not of the Cla: na-Gael. He isan enthusiastic liberal 2ad strong admirer of Dr. Cronin, whom he claims tohave met frequently. He has been vet at liberty. THE GRAND JURY DID NOT MEET. Contrary to expectation the grand jury did not this morning resume consideration of the Cronin case. The story of G. E. Brooks, pub- lished last Saturday, has since been exploded and it was deemed useless to summon that in- dividual before the jury. ‘The term of-the special jury expires by limi- tation at the close of the weck and its final re- rt must necessarily be made at that time. it was this morning announced that to-day and to-morrow would be devoted to the consideration of juil cases, and it is an open secret around the court-house that the prosecution has begun its list of wit- nesses in the Cronin case.
