THE FOUR JUDICIAL ARBITRATORS.

their execution. For that reason it ha
boon considered wlso to settle this matter )
at tho outset.
The arrangement ns to King CKcar o(
Sweden is not open, but Is final so far as i
Mr. Olnoy and Sir Julian l'auneefoto are i

Tuesday that King Oscar of Sweden and
Norway had been selected ns tho fifth arbi
trator In tho Venezuelan dispute, has been
discussed with tho greatest posslblo inter- !
est hero as well as in all tho European
capitals. A reprcsontatUo of tho Associ
utcd Press yesterday sought to Interview
King Oscar cm tho subject, and was re
ceived with the greatest courtosy by tho
highest court officials. Ills request for an
expression of opinion upon the part of tho
king on tho peaceful settlement arrivod at
botween tho United States and Great
Britain nnd ns to his majesty's willlng

It was oxplalned that whilo his majesty

Insane Man at Large on Main Street
This Mornlnp.
FRUITLESS DEMANDS AT A BANK.
After Enjoying a Few Days of Liberty James
Oliver Goes Back to the Schuylkill
Haven Insane Asylum, Where he
Spent the Pad Fifteen Years.
There whs a lunatic at large on Main street
this morning and tur a while he had people
in a vory nervous state. He made a ren
dezvous In the vicinity of the First National
ltank nnd stopped pedestrians imosing the
place to nsk them for assistance In righting
his imaginary giicvauccs. Tho people
stopped seen at a glance that tho man was
deranged and lost no time in getting away
from him. The man was .lames Oliver.
Ho is about 13 years of ago. He continually
talked about n immense sum of money lie
had in the Hist National llnuk and said the
olliciais refused to give it to him.
Constable Phillips arrested the man and
took him before Justice Lawlor. During the
hearing, at which the unfortunate man's son
appeared, it transpired that Oliver .pent the
past fifteen years in the Insane department ol
the Schuylkill ll'iven almshouse. La-t
Wednesday he appeared at tho homo of his
wife and family on West Strawberry alley.
The family were surprised by tho visit, bntas
the man seemed quite rational' they uere
content. Oliver was not at tho house many
hours, howovcr, before his mind commenced
to wander. Ills mania seemed to increase
hourly npd at three o'clock tills morning he
nrso from his lied and threatened his wife's
life, i'pon this statement of the son Oliver
was committed to tho custody of Constable
Phillips, who took Oliver down to the Potts
villojailon the 11:15 Pennsylvania train.
Arrangements will be mado to have the un
fortunate man transferred to tho almshouse
to-ninrrow.
The Hkkai.ii learned by telephono from
tho almshouse olliciais to-day that Oliver
was released last week on parolo. Ho was
npiiarently tpdto rational at the time and it is
believed that tho unfavorable ellects were
brought on again by the return to his old
haunts. It is probablo that on his return to
the institution he will become n permanent
inmate baricd from parolo.
