kilograms from Batoche's via. Winnipeg,
contain accounts of an engagement on the 9th
inst, between Riel's forces and Gen. Middle
tons. There are accounts of whitening fire.
and deadly discharges etc, but The following
appear 10 be the only casualties on the British
side: A Battery-Gunner Phillips, shot through
the stomach while in the %ravine; died while
being carried in. Thomas J. Stout, run over
by q carriage; rot fatal. Charpentler, shot
through both legs. one fractured. Gnnners
Fairbanks and TwOlty, also shot in the legs.
Grenadiers-Capt Mason, No, , company,
slight wound in the thigh. French's
Sc0uts-R. Cook, slightly wounded in
the leg; Curley Allen, in the shoulder.
A Canadian account Of the 9th INST, says
We left the camp at q O'Clock this forenoon,
leaving all supplies and tents behind, and
marched seven miles without seeing or hear
ing anything or the enemy. This morning was
bright and warm. Suddenly there came a
sound Of the steamers whistle blowing con-
tinuOusFy, and as we drew near we heard the
sound of heavy firing ON our front IN the
direction Of the river, Directly the firing
was heard we fired a signal gun, and
the scouts and Calling then pushed rap
idly ahead and came upon two houses near
the bank of the river, which here is very pre-
cipitOus. An advanced party Of rebels were
met, who fired and retired behind a house to
ward a hollow. The Gatling was brought to
bear on them, when they ran into a house near
the Church of St Laurent, which was also
fired on by the Gatling, when they ran oIt into
the bush. A battery by this time came up with
a rush and got into position, sending
several shells after the rebels. The
Grenadiers advanced, skirmishing through
the bush on the right of the trail, the
Calling gun being pushed forward down the
declivity toward BatOche's, now plainly visible
in the valley below. Here a battery unlim-
bered on the top of the ridge, and, whilst doing
so, was almost surprised by a number of reb-
els who crept up through the brush, not being
discovered until twenty yards distant. They
made a rush for our guns, firing and yelling
as they ran. Capt Howard, who operates
the Calling gun, saw the danger, and with cool
daring ran his gun a couple of yards in front
of the battery, and opening fire, literally moved
the rebels down. Those remaining turned and
ran for 1t, reaching the shelter Of the bush.
They opened fire again, and Towards escape
from injury was something marvellous, the
bullets flying all around hin. He g~allantly
maintained his position, and the rebels, unable
to stand the terrible fire, returned to the pits
constructed in the ravine running from the
river.

The wahpeton Murder Case.

The case of Mrs. Dill for the murder of, her
husband, was tried at Wahpeton recently and
resulted in verdict of guilty with
dation that she be imprisoned for life. Mrs.
Dill, on being commanded TO stand up, was
calm and self possessed. In answer to the
usual question why sentence should not be
pronounced, she replied in a low tone, in Ger
man, Not guilty" The judge sentenced her
TO Imprisonment at the Sioux Falls penitentiary
for the rest of her natural life. Mrs. Dill,
while the sentence was being pronounced, was
noticed to tremble, and at its close she tainted
away. She was carried from the court room
insensible. In less than an hour she was
found to be either feigning or else insane in
reality.
The following is her testimony in regard to
herself and husband: .

The agent and my husband got into a quarrel
which lasted three hours. After the agent

little while Julias Ebetts, the hired man, and
the boys, Paul and Herman, went to bed. I

odious features of monarehical and

NEWS OF THE WEEK SUMMARIZED.
The Iowa A. O. u. w.

Waterloo Special:-A special session of the
executive committee Of the grand lodge OF
Iowa, A. O. U. W., was held here to devise some
plan Of procedure with regard to the supreme
lodge faction in this state, in view of the recent
decision of the supreme court in favor of the
state lodge. 1t was stated thatletters had been
received from prominent members OF the SUI
preme lodge faction making overtures to be al
lowed to return to membership with the state
lodge. 1t was decided to extend the olive
branch to all who desired to return. TIL de-
cision of the committee recites the findings of
the supreme court and provides that those adj
herring to the supreme lodge faction may be
admitted to the subordinate lodges of the state
grand lodge without paying the initiation fee,
and in cases where there are no such subor-
dinate lodges such lodges may be organized
among members of the supreme lodge faction
without the payment of charter and ritual fees
or the fees of the instituting officer. By this
action it is thought that a large percentage of
those who left the state lodge organization will
return to it. The supreme lodge faction will
probably disband ...,

Treaty with the United states.

1t is reported that a treaty has been conclud-
ed between the governmental Bogota and the
minister of the United States in respect to the
security of the transit across the isthmus.
This treaty is said to confer on the United
States government certain rights Of guardian
ship of all transit either by rail or transit
across the isthmus, with special duties of pro-
tection TO be exercised in accordance with the
United States of Colombia. 1t is understood
that by this treaty the Columbian
and United States governments win
cooperate to maintain freedom of transit
against all obstruction or attempts to obstruct
1t in believed here that the joint control over
the transit route under this treaty will not
only authorize but make it the duty of the
government to give all aid required in main
tanning the transit route for commerce., mail
and passengers. 1t has become known here
that the robber, Preston, who burned Colon,
having made his escape, has since then seized
three steam vessels at Porto Bello, with the
help Of which it is feared he may make trouble
unless the United States navy should capture
him.
