ANOTHER VETO,
The Bill Granting the Right of Way
Through Montana Reservations,

Through Montana Reservations.
WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE President t J.
day sent to the Senate without his ap-
prevail a bill granting to railroads the right
OF way through the Indian reservation in
northern Montana. THE reservation re.
ferled to" says the President, "stretches
across the extreme northern part Of Mon
taua with British America for it's northern
boundary. It contains an area of over
10000 square miles. 1t is dedicated to
the Indian occupancy by the treaty OF
October II, 1856, and the act OF
Congress OF April IS, 1874. No
railroads are within immediate approach
to its boundaries and only one as shown in
the recent maps, is under construction in
the ne shborhood leading in it's direction.
The surrounding country is sparsely set
tied and l have been unable to ascertain
that the necessities OF or any
public exigencies demand this legislation,
which would effect so seriously the rights
and interest OF the Indians occupying the
reservation. The bill is in the nature
OF a general right OF way for railways
through this reservation. The In
dian occupants nave not given their con-
sent, neither have they been consulted re.
garding it; nor is there any provision in it
Tor securing their consent ST agreement to
roads, II the United States must exercise
it's rights of eminent domain over the In
dian Territ cries for the general welfare of
the whole country, it should be done eau
tiously and with a due regard for the inter-
est OF the Indians, and to no greater effect
than the exigencies OF the public service re.

CASE,
A Colorado Man Struck by Lightning
and Recovering.

A Colorado Man Struck by Lightning
and Recovering.
DENVER, COL, July IA Leadvi special
to the Republican, says: Geo. 8. Edwards,
who was struck by lightning while crossing
Iron Hill, on the 4th inst, is slowly recov-
ering. His case is q most remarkable one
and is attracting considerable attention
from scientific men. Edwards, after the
flash, lay unconscious for fifteen minutes
before receiving assistance. The lightning
struck him on the left check, knocking out
a number OF teeth. 1t then passed diagon-
ally across the breast to the right side and
thence to the feet, coming out OF the right
boot, having passed entirely through the
loot, leaving q hole very similar to one
made by a bullet. His clothing
was torn into fragments, particles
being found for q distance OF 200 feet from
the spot and one OF the boots, both Of
which were torn into shreds was found
sixty feet away. Immediately under where
he was standing, the ground was torn up
for a considerable distance. Its curse
along the body is shown by a blackened
streak one and a half inches wide. The
worst effect Is an injury to the lungs, the
immediate result being severe hemorrhage
by which a quart of blood MAS lost. In
addition to these injuries the surface of the
body is almost completely covered with
blisters, the result OF severe burns. This
is the first authentic record OF q person be-
ing injured by a stroke of lightning ut an
altitude of over 10000 feet and where a
person wal affected internally as Mr..
Edwards was and not instantly killed.

The Park.Street ShOofinp.

John Herman, who was SO mysteriously
shot in the back Tuesday morning on
East Park street, continues to improve,
and the surgeons entertain very little
doubt OF his recovery.
"Joe' Mitchell and Mamie Booth, the
women arrested for the shooting, stoutly
maintain their innocence of the crime.
Chief Ledford is working up the case, but
refuses to furnish for publication any OF
the evidence he has obtained.
The police officers are not q little indig-
nant at the way in which the women were
favored by the officials of the Sheriff's Of
fee. When Chief Ledford arrested
the women he took them before
Judge McHatton, who committed
them without bail. Chief Ledford
then turned his prisoners over to Deputy
Marshal Lou P. Smith, who escorted them
to the County Prison'and placed them in
keeping OF the Sheriff's officers. Hall an
hour later the women were met on the
street by Marshal Jolly, who re-arrested
them and prevailed upon Judge McHattor
to place them under bonds in the sum o
$500 each, which they furnished and wer'
released. This is the complaint made b,
the municipal officers. The county dit,
are yet to hear from.

PHILADELPHIA, July IAN extra force

ut work. President Gillingham said to.
day that it was doubtful ii the regular
books of the company would show any.
thing Of the overissue. Nothing has been
shown yet. Bonds ave been returned now
to the amount of 81, 200, 900 and still the
directors are unable to designate the fraud.
ulent bonds. In addition to the embezzle-
ment OF $685., 900 of the funds on deposit
at the Provident Life and Trust Company,
the investigation has revealed thus far q
further defalcation of $40, 900 and over at
the Philadelphia Bank, all OF which was
concealed by false entries in the
books. The Press says sufficient has
been learned by those having in charge the
investigation into the oyer-issue of the
Chesapeake & Delaware Canal Company
bonds, to state that Messrs. Leslie and Will
son were not the only persons who were
benefited by their stealings. The names
of five of the men who negotiated the sales
OF fraudulent bonds have been obtained,
the brokers located, who handled most OF
the securities and q partial list OF victims
secured. 1t was stated to-day that it was
not deemed advisable to arrest any OF the
parties implicated just at this time, hut
that it was only necessary to keep the sus.
pected parties under surveillance. This is
being done and should any Of them attempt
to leave city, their arrest will follow.
