How the Emper.r Regards the Attempt ON
His Life-G Oedei Denies that He Fired
at the Il mue-Or

BERLIN, May 15-At reception of the
ministers yesterday the Emperor said that
such occurrences as HoedePs attempt ought by
no means to be treated too lightly. AT time
when he himself was member of the ministry
he had always insisted upon the danger which
would result from the triumph of the tenden-
cies of the period hostile to the state. His ap-
prehensions were confirmed by the year 1913
Now it was in still higher degree ithe duty of
the government to make every exertion to pre-
vent the revolutionary element gaining the up
per hand.
Before the police Hoedel reiterates his asser-
tion that he did not shoot at the Emperor, but
severallwitnesses depose they saw him aim at
his Majesty. 1t is expected that his trial be-
fore tie high court will commence shortly. The
penalty for his crime is DEATH

GREAT BRITAIN.

The Cotton Strikers Growing Despera fe.
LONDON, May 15.-The cotton operatives on
strike in Lancashire are greatly exasperated
at the refusal of the masters to compromise
Wbeo the representatives of the operatives left
the meeting at Manchester yesterday, where 10
compromise was arrived at. they Indicated that
the leaders would not be able to longer restrain
the men, aud discamed all responsibility for
what might happen in the strike district.
When the news of the decision reached Burn
ley, thousands of people assembled in the
street, hootiug, shouting and smashing vim
dows. A mass meeting was held there today,
aud serious tronble is feared. The riot in
Blackburn last night was direct result of the
announcement of the failure of the negotia-
tions. There were also riotous demonstrations
at Accrington aud serious breach of peace is
still apprehended there.
The Blackburn Mob.
NEW YORK, May ia London special
says the agitation among the striaers at Black

in front of the town hall and demanded the

mob was terribly excited and ready for any
violence. Col. Jackson escaped with fully
10000 in pursuit followed by military aud
police.

In New York the demand has been trife better
the past few days, though almost wholly for the low
grades. but the market cannot be said to show the
least sign of an improved condition. Buyers who
really in need of stock continue to hold aloof
taking only such quantities their present require
mems demand, evidently imbued with the idea that
still lower range must follow heavy receipts of
Wool.
In Philadelphia the market is dull. Receipts are
small and the stock reduced to a very low fguee
but there no disposition to operate except in cheap
lots. Prices of manufactured goods were extremely
low and is feared that unless there is some improve
ment in this respect we must look for still lower
prices,

The Fire Co,,,r,anv,


At the meeting of the Bismarck Pioneer
Fire Company on Monday evening there
was large attendance of members and q
large amount of business transacted. Some
new members were admitted and the Off
GERS for the ensuing six months were elec~
ted. Leo Cornick was elected foreman,
Peter Malloy, first assistant foreman; Thos
Fortune, I'd asst. foreman; David Stewart,
secretary; Chas. r. Williams, treasurer.
The company is prospering financially,
and will have handsome surplus in the
treasury after paying all debts. The COM
pany resolved 10 parade for inspection by
the mayor and common council on the 4th
and to have dance in the evening at the
City Hall.
A resolution was unanimously adopted
rendering the thanks of the company to
Samuel Whitney for the generous offer
made by him of the use ofhis Opera House
for the Firemen's dance the 4th.
The executive committee were directed
to give Mr. Corey, the late treasurer, a
complimentary ticket to the dance in hon
or of his services to the company and the
committee were authorized to select
Fireman's badge for the company and to
procure torches and flags.
The company intend hereafter to live up
to the letter and spirit oftheir constitution
and bylaws, and members who have neg
lected in the past to attend meetings or
paradcs will govern themselves accord

The 4th passed off very quietly. There
were no fires, accidents or rows to record
The Firemen paraded in the morning and
their ball in the evening was success fl.
nancislly and socially though there were
two other balls in the city. The Episco.
pal Fair was visited by almost everybody

won the bed spread and is now prepared
to camp comfortably. Valentine Shreck
walked off with the doll bride, and will,
no doubt, make her an attractive feature
in Major Walker'spopular Grocery House.
Frank B0lles guessed to an ounce the
weight Of the cake and Alex Marshall re-
joiced in the possession of the cake and
ring. Dancing continued from the mid
die of the afternoon until about 12 Pm. Sam
Whitney's Opera House was crowded with
. happy throng of dancers until the wee
sma hours. There was no formal celebra-
ton, NO speeches, but business was gcner-
ally suspended and young America was
turned loose with the usual mixture of
powder and pasteboard, but thanks to our
efficient mayor, Geo. Peoples, under
proper restraint so that no property was
endangered. Our limited space will not
permit further notice, except to say that
the ladies deserve much credit for their ef.
forts to make the fair and festival sue
ress and Bismarck people sustained their
reputation for libcra]itv.

bear PNlC Gold DifcOaerieS.

Rum6rs Of valuable mineral deposits in
Bear Paw Mountains were circulated
somewhat quietly here last spring and at
one time an expedition was about made
up for the trip. These rumorS have since
grown into certaintics. The Red Cloud
brings the late news from Benton and re-
ports great excitement over the late dis
coveries at Bear Paw. Everybody has left
Benton who could get away, and men
were taking out mineral in almost fabu-
Ious amounts in some localities. This
confirms what many practical men have
declared for two years. Gen. Miles said
when here last fail that Bear Paw Noun
tains contained the richest deposit Of pre-
cious metal Of any of the great mining
regions. lie had seen enough to satisfy
him of that fact, although he said little
about it. But this stampede to Bear Paw is
not without its dangers. Five men from
Benton are reported scalpcd by Indians,
and struggling bands are proving about
all over that vicinity. That there is an
abundance of gold there is firm convic-
tion of the writer. and this fact will soon
clear the Indians from another portion of
country
