His stay fn Paris will not exceed forty-eight hours and possibly only twenty-four hours The French government will not offer Mr Kruger any formal fuuction, though it is expected the clty will tender him a dem onstration which will be a scene of en thustasm. The government wiil not take part in the reception, but will not, how ever, put any obstacle in the way of private plans of welcome.

The same correspondent says he learns on the highest authority that the late Prince Christian Vietor was playing cricket early last week and that he was then congratulated on his rapid recovery from fever.

LONDON, Oct. 30.—The report that Lord Ballsbury has notified the United Stat ambassador Josepn H.

Ferrell secured $1.000 In money from the safe of the Adams Express company The verdict carries with It the death pen- alty, which 1s electrocution.

Both Judge | Melhorn and the prisoner had retired for | the night and rearly an hour was consumed | before court could be convened and the ver | dict received. When the Indictment was | read Ferrell appeared to he taken by sur prise and his face flushed. This was the first visible sign of emotion that has been shown by him during the trial, but he quickly regained his composure and was led | back to his cell without having utfered a word. Judge Melborn discharged the jury and Hon. J. L. Cameron, counsel for the de- fense, at ouce gave notice of a motion for a new trfal. One of the grounds of the mo- tion will be the sickness of Juror Westlake, who was taken with measies shortly after the jury had retired to deliberate. Mr. Cam- {eron clalms that in his condition Mr. West- lake would have agreed to any verdict in order to be released from duty. There were not over twenty spectators in the court room when the jury reported and there was no excitement. The cost of the trial to the state and Unifon county will be about $7,500.
