TINE MONSTER BATEMAN.
His Confession of the Outrage and
Murder of the Mclaughlin Girls.

SAVANNAH, Mo-, Sept. 9.-Oliver Bateman
in his confession as to the killing of the
young Mclaughlin girls, says he was at home
when the girls went there. He saw them go
into the woods TO pick hazel nuts and fol-
lowed them within fifteen minutes, They
were near the edge of corn field when he
came up with them. While talking with
them he saw Henry Knappenbe yer pass.
He then induced the children to 60 farther
into the corn field, and while the eldest was
walking in front of him he shot her with
twenty-five calibre ball, and when,sh turned
around he shot her with thirty-two calibre.i
killing her instantly The smallest girl
started to run, and when he followed
her and caught her, she begged SO
hard for him to let her go
that he came near doing so, but knowing she
would tell he followed and caught her again,
threw her down and cut her throat and mu-
tilated her person to create the suspicion that
it was the deed of crazy man. He relates
that the eldest girl said nothing after he shot
her, and that he held his hand over
the mouth of the youngest girl to prevent her
cries being heard. He saws after all these
horrible occurrences he went to the creek
washed himself, threw his knife in the
creek, and went home. When the father of
the girls came to his house iuquiring for
them, he wauted to go and help search for
them, but his relatives would not allow him,
as they thought he was ill. The fend de-
clares ne was induced to confess owing to the
circumstantial manner in which Henry
Knappenberger had accused him of the
crime. After killing the youngest girl he
went back to his first victim, outraged her
and then mutilated her person.

Special Telegram to the Globe
New YORK, Sept "a break in Oregon
railway from 81 to "a and in Erie second
bouds from 81 4 to SO, with sharp recovery
to 81, were about the only ripples of excite
ment during the morning. These properties
were sold right and left by prominent bear
evidently with the expectation of
breaking the balance, but without
effect. There was not business enough on
the stock exchange to keep half dozen brok-
ers busy, the market being perfectly stag
nant throughout most of the day. The gran
gers showed considerable strength, with con-
siderable inclination to advance, and but lit
tie stock was offered at any time. The
Omaha properties were higher also than On
yesterday. In the afternoon hours there
was but little life, and the exchange was de-
serted by many brokers before three O'Clock.
Western Union Telegraph picked up about
per cent on the statement that a ~ per cent
dividend was decided upon. Prices at the
finish show an improvement over the OPEN
ing figures, though the changes in money are
unimportant. The market closed rather
firm.

Butler in Nebraska.

OMAHA, Sept, 9.-Butler in his Speech be-
fore the Nebraska state fair said all the farms
in Cass county Iowa, were mortgaged for
more than they would sell for. If the east
could send goods west and get corn in re-
turn, it would benefit both. Nebraska corn
that sells for fifteen to eighteen cents, brings
seventy-cents east. The cost of transporta-
ton was caused by the enormous interest
paid on bonds and watered stocks. 1t was
the fast freight lines and railrods that skim
ned the people. The government gave away
the principalities of land, took mortgages OF
it and allowed other mortgages. Transpor-
tation should be made cheap. The managers
got away with the bulk of their capital The
people have to pay rates they cannot live on
Corn is disposed of for the benefit of specula-
tors. Men can steal 5000, 900 Of pork in
Chicago and go unpunished, while one who
steeals enough to support life is sent to iail
He alluded to the rise of the Republican party
and the treason of the southern Democrats
he urged his hearers to stand together and
fight for liberty. He enumerated all the va
rious monopolies. II Jackson were alive to-
day he would vote for him, for he would say,
by the eternal, these things must be
righted," and they would be. They can be
righted now by sending the proper men to
congress. The Pittsburg riots viii be re-
peated if the people do not take warning.
The cry OF over production should be changed
to under consumption. People were starry
ing while the Nebraska granaries were over
flowing with grain. Railroads will not allow
grain and manufactures to be brought to-
gether so as TO live. Laborers and farmers
have power TO elect the president The old
parties should be abandoned. Vote together.
and in few years they would Hberate them
selves, as the abolitionists liberated the
slaves. Cleveland would win if he carried
New York, and would lose if he did not He
said he, Butler, could not be elected, because
Cleveland would have 145 votes in the south
which Butler would have with free ballot
and a fair count. He was only anxious that
the Peoples party should plant the seeds for
a new party.
Gen. Butler made an anti-monopoly speech
in open air. He attributed want and poverty
in the midst of plenty to difficulty of ex-
change of commodities, resulting from ex-
horbitant railroad charges and bull and bear
speculating. He rehearsed what he de-
manded at Chicago, and explained his idea
of the tariff. He spoke against the importa-
ton of contract labor, eulogized Van Wyck
as friend of the people as against monopo-
lies.
Gen. Butler goes to Topeka tomorrow.

War IN a Newspaper Office.

DETROIT, Sept 9.-War is raging in the
office Of the evening Journal of this CITY. A
few weeks ago C.. NJ. Hubbard, managing
editor, was discharged by Lloyd Breeze, edi-
tor in chief. Hubbard claimed he held by
contract till January, and refused to con-
slider himself discharged. Having secured
possession of majority of the stock yester-
day, with friends he entered and declared
the positions of the directors vacant. and
elected himself and friends. Breeze gathered
together the office employees and threw out
the 1ntruders. The latter were admitted as
stockholders. Last night both parties were
holding the fort. Hubbard has sworn out an
injunction claiming to be in possession and
that Breeze was interfering. To day the
Journal comes out under Breeze's manage
ment with the statement that Hubbard has
perjured himself, and was never in control.

TIMBER.

On this mountain of the prairie'' scarce q
bush or q shrub was to be seen in the davs
when Ncollet visited it, nor later, when
Sweet and Bennett located here. 1t was pra-
irie in the most absolute and literal sense,
the vast sweep of the eye covered more acres
of country than almost any spot else could
furnish without a tree or a serious elevation
to mar or obstruct the full range
Of the vision. The earlier set
tiers, approaching the fact that
this lack of timber must necessarily prove a
drawback to country possessing so many
other natural attractions, began at once TO
plant trees, which is continued to-day with
the most pleasing and desirable results, until
each successive season sees sprin ging from
this most prolific soil miniature forests reach
ing out their millions of tiny branches to-
ward heaven, growing year by year, until the
vicinity Of PipestOne is full of beautiful
groves which are fast supplying the only fea-
ture lacking in an otherwise perfect land
scape. Probably no other county in the
state can show as many fourishing tree
claims as Pipestone. MANY Of them were
taken under the Climber Culture Act, be-
fore II was changed, and have to-day twenty
acres OF fine growing trees upon them and
even more, while many homesteads and rail-
road lands have fine groves. The trees most
common are the cottonwood, box elder, elm,
maple and ash, and the marvellous rapidity
with which they grow, and the ease with
which they are started, soon promises to fur
nish all the timber which the needs of the
country require.

What has Skepticism done for the world?
Nothing but to suggest doubts. II has even
suggested that Rheumatism cannot be cured
Skepucism is as bad as rheumatism.
What has Science done for the world?
A good many things; for instance, 1t has
shown that rheumatism can be cured
1t has shown that Neuralgia can be got rid Of.
Modern encehasprovedt that rheumatism is
blood disease, and has provided ATHLoPHoRoS
as the remedy which can completely cure II.
1t has proved that although the Old doctors
failed TO overcome Neuralgia, ATHLOPHoRos can
reach II, and eradicate It from the system.
1t has proved that though these toTInenting
diseases were SO slow and obstinate, they can
be overcome in little while by means OF
