BurBIug of az insane Asylum

Ysnkton, D. T 1.-The territorial in
sane asylum burned this afternoon. It
was temporary wooden building, used
while the brick building now nearly
complete was being constructed. There
were ffty-four insane patients in the
asylum, and Of these the following were
burned TO death: Ossum Iyerson. OF
Ysnkton CouRty; Peter Peterson, of Cass
County, Iran Lynch, of Union County;
Joseph HaEeTly, of Lawrence County.
The property loss is about $40, COO, in
GLIDING the temporary building and It's
contents, comparatively nothing being
saved, and the insurance was only $500
The origin of the fire is a mystery. Il
was first seen in the ruff, and spread with
such -spidjty that there was no time to
save property ut all. The patients killed
were once removed from the building,
but ran back into the flames after escep-
ing from the custody CT their keepers.
Ehe new asylum is not compile ed, but
can be used, and the survivors have been
moved into it. As AL the bedding and
furniture were destroyed the patients
cannot be made very comfortable for q
day or two. Citizens are contributing to
their wants.

EBgIand ana the Vatican.

New York, Ia cabiegram from
Rome says: There has been considerable
comment IN ecclesiestic aud diplomatic
circles in Rome owing to the recent pres
eDce in this city of Mgr. Capa, who has
been having long and repeated confer
ences with Cardinel Jacobini. [ have
reason to believe that Mgr. Capa has
been intrusted with the delicate task of
taking up negotiations for the resumption
of regular relations between the British
government and the Vatican, at the
point where they we're left by the mys-
FERROUS and incaUtious Mr.. Eringtor.
The latter gentleman's decision seems to
have faded. understand that Mgr.
Cana is endeavoring to obtain the papal
consent TO the appointment of non-ec-
elesiasticsl, and win a non Catholic rep
resentstive OF the Vatican in England.
Should these negotiations with E0glsnd
prove successful, an attempt to induce
the United States to resume relations
with the Vatican will unquesliou ably be
nate. Mgr. Caps has left Rome for
Paris.

Irish-American suspects

London, 2.-As to the Irish American
suspects, it is considered here that Mr..
Lowell has already made every effort
consistent with diplomatic usage, and it
is much more delicate subject than the
Irish party in America can possibly
know. Dublin Castle has been more ex-
acting as to the evidence against suspects
of American birth than IN any other
cases. Mr.. Forster is the last man to
move finger to disturb the good rela-
tiors between the United States and
England. The testimony against
Sweeney is so strong that if he be re-
leased nearly every other suspect must
be released also. Sovereign states are
usually careful to avoid questioning
ahother's criminal jurisdiction in its ter
rltory. Whenever that policy is adopted
influence is exercised privately that IN.
been already done with great tact Pub
&c diplomatic remonstrances are obyi-
,usl y meant to favor the Irish party in
he United States, fren whom come Il
iDews Of the socialist campaign. Ttey
will do more harm than good, and per-
laps will lead to diplomatic retaliation.

for his ticket. What followed is not def.
nitely known, but second later Con
ductor Warner was shot by the stranger,
the ball taking effect in the right cheek
producing
ONLY FLESH WOUND,
and for few moments the greatest excite
ment prevailed, and no less than ten shot,
were fired. During the firing the bandit
who accompanied Brown was shot through
the head and body, and sank on the plat
form corpse. The train was stopped, and
the dead body carried into the baggage car
alter which Conductor Ed. Smith, late O!
the ncrth end of the X. Il I, was placed
in charge of the train and il proceeded
north as if nothing had happened, not even
So much as slowing up at Blue Jacket
where the remainder of the gang were
waiting to get in their work OF
MURDER AND ROBBERY.
Opinion seems to differ as TO whether
the would-be robber was killed by Con-
ductor Warner or Brown, as the firing v as
of a promiscuOus character, and there
were no witnesses to the shooting.
During the fracas some Of the windows
of the smoking coach were demolished, and
when the train reached this city a BAzOo
noticed TWO or three places
where pistol balls were imbebbed in The
car.
While the shooting was going on on the
platform. the messengers, with half dozen
guards, were locked in their car, and had
breastworks out of some monster
trunks, the property of NJ. Henoch, of ;his
city, who was passenger on the train.
THE GREATEST EXCITEMENT PREVAILED
WITHIN,
but the inmates of the car remained
behind Mr.. Henoch's huge Saratogas,
End felt comparatively safe.
Charlie Salisbury, the baggagesmaster,
seems to have been more badly scared than
the rest OF the train men, for on being of.
fered revolver with which to help defend
the car i'm case it was nece ssary, he declined
to take il, but went back into the rear of
the train, and his companions are not slow
in saying he showed the white feather.
After being wounded, Conductor Warner
went back into the sleeper, where ne re-
manned until Parson was reached, when his
wound was, dressed, and
PRONOUNCED NOT SERIOUS.
His action throughout is highly commend
ed, and his many friends on the south end
of the road will be glad to hear that he es-
capped without serious injury.
The body of the dead robber was taken
from the baggage car at Parsons, ard when
the train proceeded north it was lying on a
truck on the platform, but what DISPOSE
ton was made of it is not known.
He is represented as man about thirty
i've years OF age, wore brown overalls, rub

TRICKY TAYLOR.
He is Arrested While Attempting
to Sell Another Mans
Mule.

At an early hour this morning fellow
having the appearance of an unsophisti-
Gated granger. and riding large bay mule,
put in an appearance at Lyons livery stable,
and soon entered into negotiations with
Capt. Ed Stevens for the sale of the mule.
Capt. Stevens offered him 500 for the ami
NAL. and the readiness with which the fell
low accepted the offer, The mule being
worth fully $l25, aroused the captains
suspicious that all was not straight. He
accordingly gave the fellow a check for
500 i'm payment for the mule, and made
the check payable to bearer, provided he
could identify himself. The fellow
went of, but not being able to get his check
cashed, sOonsreturned. Capt. Stevens re-
marked that they sometimes cashed checks
ut q discount, and offered the thief, for
such he really was, $50 for it. The
offer was accepted without hesitation, and
the captains suspicious now being fully
confirmed, he called Officer Kelley and
gave the Young man into custody.
The fellow upon being locked up was
he gave the name OF John Taylor, and said
had bought the mule from one George
layior, WHO dlSO lives hcdi
Lamonte, only las; spring. He
was also closely questioned by Capt.
Stevens and several OF the officers. His
statements were contradictory and not at
all reasonable, and only served to deepen
the impression he had already made in the
minds OF those who have talked to him Of
his guilt.
Marshal Shy telegraphed to the party
IRON whom Taylor said he had purchased
the mule, but pending the receipt OF re-
ply, Taylor weakened and confessed that
the mule was stolen property, and belonged
to Mr.. Dan McNare, and that he had taken
it from hitchiDg post in front OF the
church at Lamonte, last night. Mr.. Nc
Mare has been telegraphed to.
