at 81 East Third street, Messrs. Rider IL Cum
min cham, piOprietors, made voluntary as
sgnment for the benefit of their creditors

The firm has been in existence for a consid-

The Examination of the Murderers OF
tSeaman Jansen Commenced
ut London.
Adyices From Cambodia State There is q
Serious Outbreak in That
Country.
THE UNITED KINGDOM.

LONDON, Jan. 12.--The examination OF
William Ranscher, second mate, and Ferdi-
nand Kelpin, boatswain of the American
ship j. f. Chapman, for the murder OF sea-
man Jansen, while on voyage from
San Francisco to Liverpool, was resumed
this afternoon. This case attracts much at
tention, and the court room was crowded.
The prisoners were arrested in Liverpool the
latter part of December upon the arrival of
the ship in that port. Their arrest was
brought about by the testimony of the crew
to the cruel treatment of Jansen. After
Jansen, who was Russian Finn, had shipped
the captain found reason to suspect that he
was penniless and sick, and had joined the
crew for the sole purpose of secur-
ing passage to Europe. Jansen's inability
was resented by the captain as pretense to
shirk his task, and when the ship was two
days out that officer kicked him sayagely and
struck him in the face because he did not
''pull harder'' in hosting the top gallant SAIL
The second mate and boatswan took
their cue from the captain and gave Jansen
such illusage thereafter that his death,
which occurred at sea Dec. s. is attributed to
the horrible cruelties inflicted by the
prisoners. At the preliminary hearing
at Blrkenhend probable case was made out
against them aud they were remanded.
Harcourt, home secretary, then assumed
control Of the case, and had the persons re-
moved to London to facilitate extradition to
the United States, in case the American au-
thorties Wish. The session of the court this
afternoon was occupied in hearing the tes-
timony of tne ship carpenter,
Andrew Johnson. He fully cor
roborated the testimony of Joseph
Brisk and Frederick Martin, seamen. John
son swears the prisoners continually COM
PEELED Jansen to attempt tasks he was too
weak to accomplish, and when the man hes
itated, failed or sank down from weakness,
they kicked him in the stomach, belabored
him with cubs or straps or ropes, tied him
up by the thumbs and placed him in perilous
pos. tOns, as if to have him fall overheard.
He was frequently tied up by the thumbs in
such way that the tips of his toes barely
touched the deck, and so that every rock of
the vessel he would be swung from bulwark
to bu wark, his entire weight suspended by
his thumbs. II was intimated by the judge
at tue opening of days hearing that
Harcourt had issued fresh warrant
for the arrest of the prisoners on
the application of the United States for their
extradlion. Henry White, secoud secretary
OF legation, watched the case in behalf of
America. All evidence previously given was
presented once more and the case again adj
journcd.

the house Republican. This will prevent the

Among the most important bills that will
be introduced, will be the one for the
removal of the capitol from
Helena to BOzeman or Butte.
The fight on this will be purely sectional, as
the outside larger towns are very jealous Of
the prosperity of Helena, and imagine that
because the capitol is located here, that 1t is
the cause of her prosperity. This is great.

are excited over the impure condition Of the
well water in that city. Analysis of the wa
ter of eighteen wells show that only two of
them contain water fit for human consump-
ton. In six were found germs of typhoid
