RICH HEBREW KILLED IN MEXICO BY FORMER
TROOPERS IN THE EIGHTH CAVALRY.
GALVESTON, TEX, Feb. 25.-A special TO the
NeUs from Matamoras, Mexico, says: Samuel
Reed, q deserter from the Sth United States
cavalry, who was implicated In the murder OF a
rich Jew named Block, made a confession yes
terday, giving full particulars OF the crime. He
says that Samuel Williams, also a deserter from
the cavalry, struck Block with a thin piece OF
iron, and then assaulted him with a knife.
They got but little money, the greater part
being i'm the safe, which they overlooked.
Williams will probably be taken out by the
authorities, and shot in expiation OF his crime.

Trial of Oswald.

DEVILS LAKE, May 1.-Oswald's
counsel subjected the doctors who con-
Quoted the post norton examination
of Insolvency. to rigid cross exam
ination to-day, to establish the theory
that the nature and location of the
wound tend to show that Oswald fired
in self defense. DIR. Ruger testified
that he has examined over 1000 gun
shot wounds and that the direction q
ball would take after entering the
body could not be judged from outside
appearances. insolvency was shot
through the heart. The testimony Of
Sheriff Wagner showed that Oswald
was somewhat intoxicated when ar
rerted, but the prosecution showed he
was sober enough to reach his house,
halfa mile from the saloon, In about
five minutes. The defense showed
that McSweeney's friends had threat.
eued to lynch Oswald. IL Is expected
that the trial will terminate Thursday.

ATLANTA, Ca, May :l.-To.day ia
May day, which will be long remem-
bered by the people of Atlanta. The
day opened bright and fair. Before
the sun was an hour high, streams of
people began to pour into the city
from every direction. Atlanta seemed
the vortex OF great maelstrom, and
the surrounding territory drained
inself into her gates. Decorations
which yesterday seemed profuse were
this morning greatly added to. The

gard. DIR. Spaulding presented the

In the House.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-The COM
mittee to which was referred the reso-
luton of Mr.. Taulbe, of Kentucky
calling upon the secretary of the treas
ury for information regarding the
authority of employees in the treasury
department to nominate their own
substitutes when absent. reported that
no irregularity existed and asked to
be discharged.
Senator PeDdleton, whom since his
connection with the law, had been
relegated TO that obscurity which no
man would envy him, but while IL
was bad law the government was COM
mitted to il, and while il could not he
repealed it should be lived up TO. In
the matter of appointments at the
time of the passage OF the law
there were inequalities and the law
itself prohibited the correction of these
INEQUALITIES. The District of Column
bia, and of one thousand appoint
ments since the passage of the act had
been entitled to two and had received
twenty-four. The state of Kentucky,
which had been entitled to thirty
three, had received seventeen. This
was not fair.
Willard, of New York, enquired
whether these gentlemen held that
the President and secretary OF the
treasury had not enforced the law.
Mr.. Taulbe replied that he believed
that the President and Secretary were
earnestly trying to enforce IL but that
lieutenants under them, chiefs OF bu-
reaus, was where the misconduct was
fragrant.
Conner of Illinois. Is there any
thing in the civil service that pro-
hibits the secretary Of the treasury OF
the President from removing chief
clerks, appointment clerks and every
head of bureau in that department.
Taulbe. l will answer that there is
not, but that when the Democrats
took possession of the executive
branch Of government the President
announced his policy, that while civil
service law should be carried out 10 its
letter its spirit should apply to all
officers. The President may have
differed with some of the most Jealous
leaders of the Democratic party on
that point, vet ii was his policy and
with few exceptions he has carried IL
out. Carried 1t out more fully than
that of his Republican predecessors.

Montana stockgrowers.


The delegates appinted by the Mon
tana Stock Growers Association 10 go
to St Paul and look over the ground
there with st. Paul people with
view to establishing live
stock market, left last evening.
Those who left from Miles City were
]. S. Thompson, Col. Bryan, Judge
Strevell, Col. Hough, and Modesty
Carter. 1t is expected they will be
gone a week or ten days.
A meeting OF the citizens of st. Paul
was held at the Ryan hotel on We'd
nesday evening to consider arrau ge-
ments for the entertainment of the
stock mems committee from Mon
tana. :The meeting was almost wholly
devoted TO the ACCESSIBILITY Of estab-
fishing a stock market, fattening es-
adjustments and wholesale slaughter
houses in st. Paul. President Hill, of
the Manitoba road, warmly endorsed
the project. Mr.. Hill said that in the
Chicago fat stock show he took the
first prizes over all cattle-over cattle
from all parts Of the west. He had
fed them on feed grown on his own
farm, which he was able to raise
cheaply-cabbages at 81 per ton and
turnips at 50 cents ton. He regarded
a mixture OF turnips and hay. with a
mixture of turnips and ground feed to
top off with, as very excellent beef
food, the cost Of producing the meat
being less than three cents pound.
He argued statistically at some length
that beef can be advantageous and
cheaply fed and fattened on the pro-
ducts of Minnesota farms. He also
explained that Minnesota was a good
place to feed and fatten steers which
come in bad condition from the ranges.
A. b. Stickney said that he had at
first thought all that was needed to
make a maket at st. Paul was man.
ufactory or u slaughtering establish
ment, but further consideration con-
WINGED him that slaughter house
could not be sustained on the beef that
comes from Montana during but three
months in the year. He regarded IL as
essential that the farmers Of Mime
sofa be encouraged to take the cattle
as they come from tho ranges and feed
and fatten them. In oraer to start a
stock market there, feeding would
have to be commenced. He thought
that, with harm of 1000 cattle, fed
for four months, demonstration could
be made of whether the business IL
profitable or not, and If il Is as profit
able as il promises, the question
would be solved, establishments for
feeding cattle would become numer-
GUS, and the slaughtering houses would
have liberal and permanent supply
Mr.. Hill suggested that between
Anoka and White Bear there are ex-
celent meadows and timber for build
ings where the experiment of feeding
might be made. He thought that
Minnesota can raise ! 900 pound steers
at three years old-much better than
Montana can do-and that the steers
can be sold for from one to one and .
half cents pound more than Mon
tana steers. Minnesota has no big
forests nor mines, ii must rely on its
fields, and the time is fast coming
when stock should supplement wheat.
He asserted that the Minnesota hay
that is being burnt up every year by
prairie fires, at 81 a ton would balance
the wheat crop of the state twice over /.

A JEALOUS woMAN's CRIME.
Mrs. Sloan browns Her FOur-year-old Boy
to Spite Her Husband.

NEW York, June "a Stanford, VT, dis
patch says: Mrs. William Sloan has for sew
eraI months been extremely jealous of her
husband, and the affairs of the family have
been the topic of conversation among the
villagers. Mr.. Sloan returned from work
at an early hour last evening. His little
fouT-yeaT-Old boy, who always meet him at
the door, failed to do so. On going into the
house he inquired for his son, and his wife
saiT she had sent the boy on an GRAND. HIS
long delay resulted in a general search Tor
the child, whose lifeless body was found in a
ditch. The body was removed to the house
and laid at tn e feet of Mrs. Sloan. She did
not shsw any sign Of emotion or surprise,
and merely said it served her husband right
to infiict such punishment on him. The
cool way in which she took the matter. and
also as she had refused to JOIN the search,
led the neighbOrs TO believe that she had
committed the murder. A constable took
her in custody, and shortly after beiag
locked ny she confessed having drowned the
child. Her only reason for doing so was, as
she said, TO spite her husband. The shock
has made Mr.. Sloan insane.
