trict Attorney will look into the matter
quietly and as rapidly as possible. The
District Attorney believes these certificates
bogus, and is taking energetic measures to
expose the scheme. A man representing
himself as Miller, of Burt 81 Miller, called
at the express office and inquired for a
package of money from Sioux Falls. He
took fright at the manner of the express
agent and left, although having reason to
believe the money would come. Detec-
tives are working the case up.
SUICIDE,
DUBUQUE, May 6.-Early this morning

bleeding profusely and man was insensible.

to- be III. Wenzel of Fennimore, Wise. II
is claimed his wife and child had been lost
on the Gold en- City at Memphis, but this is
not established. He died at II o'clock.

THE FACTS.

Tucson, May.-The Star denounces the
Presidents cowboy proclamation as un-
called for and based on malicious misrepre-
sentations, concluding as follows: ''The
origin of this scandalous proclamation is
simply this-A band of deputy United
States marshals engaged in the most wan
ton and criminal practices under color of
their official authority. They murdered
people, and when the sheriff of the county
in which their crimes were committed
sought to arrest them. they interposed
their official position and resisted execu-
ton of the law. These are the facts.

was seen to night At first he expressed
utter disbelief in the authenticity of the
report of the killing of Cavendish and
Burke. Upon being assured of its truth
ne said twas the act of Guiteau, and had
no political significance whatever. Out
RACES and assassinations will be, he said,
condemned by every true Irishman.
Times editorial: If Ireland is to be put
under military law and it is safe to say
that Gladstone would neither assume nor
erica must blush with shame. In regard to
the suggestion that the brutal assassina-
tion which disgraces Ireland and endangers
the best interests of the Irish is in harmony
with the teachings of certain residents of
of this country who have steadily advocat-
ed it in, order to fill their own pockets
These persons ought to be reached by pub
lie sentiment of contempt and abhorance
so deep and universal that even O,Donovan
Rossa should feel it.
The murder could not have happened at
more inauspicious time for Ireland. She
was enjoying great victory; her leaders
had been released; two unpopular ministers
had been withdrawn at her demand, and
Mr.. Gladstone was willing to grant almost
any reasonable concession. The crisis has
now come. There can be no more temper
Izing Mr.. Parnell should place himself
at the head of the only movement which
can now close the war.
Boston Herald says: We shall rejoice to
hear that the Irish leaders have given
practical expression to their Indignation
by proclaiming the ban of the league
against the cowardly assassins
Hon T. A. Collins, ex President of the
Land League of America. says: Until it
is known who is guilty of this terrible
crime, it is as useless to speculate upon the
effect, as it was speculation
on the first news of Garfield's
assassination when Guiteau was not
known. IF it should be discovered the as
sassins have no connection with the Irish
party it will of course have no effect be-
yond temporarily arresting the proposed
humane and remedial policy of a govern
ment
The New York World says Gladstone
has challenged Ireland and got his answer
These murders will be taken to mean Eng
land must chose whether she will continue
to govern by force OF leave her free gov
ernment.

of the scrip and that the gang must have
realized from $1,000 to $780, 900 in St.
