Lord Melgund interviewed.

Lord Melgund passed through St Paul
last night en- route for Ottawa, bearing i'm
portant dispatches from Gen. Middleton to
the government. Coming down on the
train he received a dispatch from Supt.
Egan of the Canadian Pacific notifying
him of the capture OF Riel. He expressed
himself as highly gratified at the
result, regarding it as practically the
end of the half-breed rebellion. As to his
mission East he was quite reticent to the
GLOBE reporter, and he found it necessary
to rudely repulse an lmportu-
nate Tribune reporter at Minneap-
oils, who insisted on seeing his
private dispatches. He said he couldn't
comprehend the gall of the average Ameri-
lictation of the GLOBE reporter he said he
regarded the surrender of Riel the practical
elimination Of the half-breed rebellion.
While reticent on general principles, as
the bearer of important private dispatches,
he was drawn out on several important
matters. As to Col. Irvine, he could not
comprehend why he had not come to Mid
dleton'S support except on the theory that
he was impelled by the opportunities of the
people of Prince Albert to maintain his
1OICCo lncIc 1Ol lIiC pIOtCCtiOll VI INC
women and children congregated there.
As to Col. Otter. he regarded
him as gallant officer, but could not I'M
derstand why he had raided the reservation
and driven POundmaker to take the war
path, except that he could overcome him.
POundmaker he now regarded as the most
serious menace to the peace of the Northwest
territories. The fact that he had captured
a train of supplies would naturally
incite other Indians to make like raids
for the attainment of like ends.
He could not speak in too high commenda-
ton of the volunteers who had participated
under his own eye in the battle of Fish
Creek, especially the Winnipeggers, who
had borne the brIlnt of the battle in that
heated engagement. Men who could face
without flinching an unseen and deadly foe
were worthy Of the plaudits due to heroes.
If Capts. Bledsoe and Howard,
in charge of the transports and the Gatiing
gun respectively, he spoke quite enthusiast
tically and he gave each his due need of
praise for gallantry and reckless yet eau
tiouS daring. In personal appearance Lord
Melgund is blonde, with a ciose-knit
figure, full of stature, military mustache,
glittering gray eyes and a general martial
bearing.

service for half dozen years. His latest
station was at Honduras. He is at present
in Washington on leave of absence and
has succeeded in convincing Mr.. Bayard
that he has always been a Democrat. The
consul who has kept his mouth shut
upon political matters and has attended
to business has great advantage over the
federal officeholder at home. 1t is hard to
make case of offensive partisanship stick
against him. Horatio- j. Sprague, the
American representative at Gibraltar, can
show a commission dated 184S. N. Stella
has remained at Syracuse, Italy, since 1851
without being disturbed, and Judah S. Levi
has looked after the interest of this
country at Tetnan, in the Barbary states,
since 1852. These are exceptional cases.
A change of presidents without change
in politics has heretofore been considered
as offering an opportunity for a pretty
thorough overhauling of the diplomatic
service. The state department register
shows that four-fifths of the ministers and
,conshls in service when, Mr.. Cleveland
commenced turning them out bore COM
missions dating since. the election of Gar

New BRUNSWICK, N. j., May 16.-In-
tense excitement still exists over the crime
of Mrs. Emma Hendricks. accused of beat
ing little Emma Belmont, her adopted
daughter. The discovery Of the child's
condition was made in a most peculiar man
ner. The complaint'was made by Mrs. John
Day, who relates the following story: ''All
day Monday l had dreadful headache and
l had such queer feeling about something.
I know Mrs Hendricks only slightly, but
when the feeling took a definite shape
something seemed to keep telling me
to go to see her. 1 didn't

Tuesday afternoon. l did so. When saw
Emma's bruised face 1 started back and al

Hendricks said, s'What is the matter.
You know 1 didn't do it." That
aroused my suspicious, but 1 prayed for a
few moments and then said that the child
had been choked. Tell the lady the truth
about it, said Mrs. Hendricks to the girl.
And the little one, shivering from fright,
said: 4 did it myself That night l
could hardly sleep, and finally [ told my
husband about the matter and
he made complaint to the police,
who arrested her. l believe that

The colliery is owned by the Philadelphia &

east gangway, where the cave-in occurred,
is in Schuylkill, half mile across the
mountain from .Cnyler colliery, where a

of the North Ashland colliery
was nearly worked out, and the rebbing of

already under way. This brought down
the volume of water and debris from over

suddenness. John Head heard rumbling.

few steps when he was struck and crushed.
His legs, arms and ribs were broken. The
rush of air and noise made by the fall
alarmed the men working nearer the foot
of the slope, and they reached places OF
safety. As soon as it was evident that all
immediate danger was past an effort was
made to reach the bodies of the dead men,
but there is no hope Of reaching the three
miners for several days, so extensive is the
fall.

INSANITY the Plea.

special 10 Ine GIODe.
WINNIPEG, May 16.-The general opin-
ion is that an attempt will be made to get
Riel off on the plea of insanity. Stories
have been freely floating about regarding
his unsoundness of mind. There is always
a chance, however, that a rifle bullet will
find him. The Dominion government is
much embarrassed by his capture. 1t is be-
lieved that the entire outfit of
Big Bear and Poundmaker, num-
bering over 1900 braves, squaws,
and children are moving. They followed,
but kept in cover. The prairie is dotted
with cattle which have given out from IA
tigue on the trail of the Indians. The trail
ran south of Stoney reserve in the direc-
ton of Saskatchewan. 1t is thought that
the Indians are unaware of RieFs defeat.
The First regiment is known to have es-
capped when the bull train was attacked.
Scouts think that a westerly direction was
taken by the Indians with the train. Each
wagon carried ton of provisions and for

Thursday morning, when Buck Kelley and
another man went to the shanty and dis

BADLY STAINED WITH BLOOD.
This raised suspicion, and they commenced
search, and 100 yards down the ravine
from the house they discovered the remains
of man in fresh mound of dirt. They
quit digging and summoned the coroner,
when it was discovered that the remains
were those of Antoni Nicoli, the boss OF
the gang. The remains had rope about
five feet long about the neck
and his skull was crushed in
by what appeared to be the poll of an
axe or by a heavy club. The rope was
used to drag the body from the scene of
the murder to its burial place. There is
some evidence going to show that the other
Italians had threatened him, believing he
was responsible for their not getting their
pay, and this most probably was the cause
of the deed, as Nicoli had neither money nor
valuables to tempt them. The last seen of
Nicoli alive was Saturday. May 2. This
night is believed by the neighbOrs to be the
one on which he was murdered. The in
quest is now in progress in this city. The
three companions Of NicOli are supposed to
have gone to Sharon, o., to work on the
public works.

A Creole Duel.

SpECIaI
NEW ORLEANS, May 16.-The fact that
duel had been fought here on Thursday
evening between two well-known Creoles
was made known for the first time to-day.
The men are Fernand Armant and j. B.
Leveque. both belonging to prominent Gre
ole families. The duel was fought according
to the regular Creole style, with ''oliche-
mards" or rapiers, on the shore of Lake
Ponchartrain, near Spanish Fort, lasting a
quarter of an hour and resulting in the seri-
Gus wounding of Armant. Levegue's blade
penetrated above his elbow and came out
through the shoulder of his sword arm,
rendering any further fighting impossible.
There seems to be a revival of dueling
among Creoles of this city, this being the
second fought this week, in both of which
one of the principals was wounded.

Numbering "a China man.

HELENA, Ark, May 16.-A story, as
told by some citizens of Friar's Point,
shows horrible state of affairs at that
place. The report is that about ten days
ago an old Chinaman was beaten severely
by two or three citizens and ordered to
leave town, which he started to do, going
Oh the wharf to wait for boat. The
self-organized vigilants were not sat
isfied at this, but went to the wharf,
caught the Chinaman, threw him into the
river, and, on his failing to drown as quick
ly as they desired, shot him to death. The
perpetrators of the murder claim that the
Chinaman had assaulted a young white
girl, the daughter of one of the slayers,
but others say he meant no harm to the
girl and did nothing to alarm her,
only putting his hand on her face
to attract her attention. The names of the
parties connected with the affair cannot be
ascertained, but they are prominent citi-
zens The body of the Chinaman has been
found, and some of his slayers arrested.
The town is said to be divided into two
factions, one desiring to shield the Grim
inals and the other endeavoring to have the
law enforced.
