STARVING INDIANS

There is no man in the world more COM
petent to discuss any feature of the Indian
problem than Bishop WHIpPLE, for the
simple reason that there is not another man
who has given it a more careful study from
diSnterested standpoint than he has. His
large and jealous missionary work among
the Indians and his unselfish devotion to the
work OF elevating their condition has given
him abundant opportunity to understand
Indian nature as we'll as to inform himself
concerning the acts of injustice that have
perpetrated by the government in its deal
ings with the Indians. Consequently his
address before the chamber of commefce
yesterday was listened to with special in
tereSt by the business men of ST. Paul.
The bishop describes a horrible condition
OF restitution existing among the
Indians at Leech lake and Win.
nebegoshish. And the worst oil
is that this condition is due to the bad faith
of the government in falling to compensate
them for the damage that resulted from the
construction of the dams in that locality.
It is very apparent that the act of congress
authorizing the construction of these dams
without making provision for compensation

AN ANGRY HUSBAND.
He Attempts to Shoot Duncan Ross,
the Athlete.


CHICAGO, July 19.-The relations be-
tween Duncan c. Ross, the athlete and
swordsman, and Robert V. Ferguson, his
advance agent, are somewhat strained.
Ferguson was employed by Ross in Denver,
and at that time the athlete made the ac-
quaintance of Ferguson's wife. She is a
pretty brunette, about 20 years old, and is
known as Ida Valance. About four weeks
ago Ross, Ferguson and Miss Ida came to
Chicago and stopped at the Continental no.
tel. Ferguson was sent to Peoria to ar
range dates, and he sent his wife to her
relatives in Iowa. He claims she did not
go to Iowa, but returned to Chicago and
met Ross. Ferguson went yesterday
morning to Ross room at the Continental
hotel and attempted to draw revolver and
shoot Ross, but the latter was too quick.
Ross seized the angry man and tore the
revolver from him. Fearing that he would
be arrested at a late hour Saturday night
and prevented from appearing to-day at
Cheltenham beach, Ross left last evening
for Milwaukee He returned to the city
to-day and appeared with Sergt. Walsh in
his sword contest at the beach, Ferguson
was connected until six weeks ago with
one of the Madison Square theater compa-
MES. Ross says the stories about himself
and Mrs. Ferguson are entirely untrue, and
that Ferguson must be insane. Ross eX-
poets to be arrested tomorrow, but says he
has no fear of the result of hearing.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, July ia shoot
ing scrape occurred here last evening in
which five persons were injured, two of
them severely. The case is most sensa-
tional. Two years and half ago P. P.
Monohan came here, and being an expert
cotton miller easily gained employment in
the Tennessee cotton factory. There he
met Laura Carney, poor but respectable
and honest girl employed as weaver. He
at once fell in love with her, but was so
jealous that he frightened her. He became
disheartened in his suit and left the city,
going to Chicago, where he worked while.
going thence to Augusta. and finally drift
ing back to Nashville. He began counting
Miss Carney again and for a time they were
engaged, but he Spied upon her every
movement, and annoyed her so much by
his jealousy that she broke the engage
ment. He threatened to kill her unless she
married him, and last Sunday night fired
two shots at her front gate to alarm Der.

night Miss Carney and some of the neigh
bors were sitting in Mrs. Carney's parlors
after coming from church, singing religious
songs. In the midst of Nearer MY God

Carney through the arm, and John Clapp,
who attempted to disarm him, received a
bullet through the hand. Stepping into
the hall he then shot himself in the head
His own wound and that of Miss Carney
are perhaps fatal. The affair caused the
greatest excitement. and there were de-
termined threats of lynching, which was
only prevented by the quick arrival of the
police. who carried the man to Jail as
quickly as possible. Monohan is delirious

oUARRE1soME SENATOR'S

1t was very amusing little tilt in the
senate Yesterday between Senators MILLER
and INGALLS,. Each said some very hard
things about the other, and both doubtless
spoke the truth. 1t may have lowered the
dignity of the senate little, but would
have been more creditable to the individual
senators engaged in the controversy if they
had initiated the example of COBB and
LAIRD in the house. and had
knocked it out in the presence
of the senate, instead of venting
their spleen by calling each other hard
names. 1t would really be more satisfactory
to the American people, and certainly much
more creditable to our national congress if
the irate members of that body would step
outside of the capitol and settle their dis
putes in regular old-fashioned fisticuff,
than to have the nation Inundated by the
spectacle witnessed in the senate chamber
yesterday. Such conduct is unmanly, to
say the least of it. 1t would be better to
have our senate halls filled with querulous
old women than with such tongue-lashing
senators as MILLER and INGALLS,.

anonymous letters, warning Mr.. Crawford

lions with Sir Charles Dixie. The exnert
said the similarity between the writing of
the anonymous notes and the signed letters
was so good that he believed the same per
son had written all the letters he had ex
amined. This testimony produced sensa-
ton in court.
Public interest in the Dixie Crawford
case Is undated. In court to-day Dixie
was cheerful; almost frisky, Donald Craw
ford was sullen. Mrs. Crawford was cool
and collected, breaking the tedium of the

sometimes consulted miniature diary and
occasionally whispered to Mr.. Lewis and
chatted with her sisters. The evidence of

coachman said he frequently drove Dixie

THE SEED OF ANARCHIsM.

One swallow does not make a summer.
Neither does the presence of a half score
of anarchists in st. Paul give any ground
for fear that riot is imminent. In his
interview with the GLOBE this morning. a
prominent St. Paul socialist tells of the
doings of few of the anarchists who have
found their way into this city, and if his
story is to be believed, it shows plainly
enough that all that these pests of society
need to give trouble is the opportunity
The surest way to get rid of noxious
plant is to nip it in the bud. If there are
anarchists in st. Paul, they should be got
ten rid of. This is tolerably large city,
and there is a great deal of room in and
around 1t, but there isn't room enough in
ST. Paul for an anarchist. There is an in
stitution up at Saltwater which is the legit-
innate home of the anarchist, and the sooner
he finds it the better it will be for society.

THE SENATORIAL CONTEST


A correspondent, writing in this morn
lng's GLOBE, urges the election of G. K.
DAVIS to the United States senate in the
event it is found to be impossible to elect a
Democrat. The communication advocating
the election of Mr.. DAVIS seems to have
been drawn out by an article in yesterdays
Pioneer Press which in forcible manner
presented the claims of Senator MCMILLAN
for denomination by the Republicans.
1t is a little early to grow senatorial
candidates. 1t ought to be time enough to
do that after the legislature is elected. But
in the present complicated condition OF
Minnesota politics it is most likely that the
senatorial aspirant who doesn't take time by
the forelock, and get into some one of the
many combinations being formed, will most
likely be left when the next legislature
that the senatorial candidates are beginning
to launch their boats on the political waters
The GLOBE is taking no part in the contest
between candidates. The field is open be-
fore them, and they can go into the
fight without interference. But the
GLOBE does want to see legisla ture
elected that will not only choose
a senator with head full OF brains, but
one that is so broad in his craftsmanship
and honest in his convictions that he can be
relied upon to promote the welfare of his
state To do this he must be Democrat.
1t makes no difference how big Drained a
senator may be, as long as he is identified
with a party that is controlled by the Penn
sylvania protectionists it is impossible for
him to be loyal to the interests of Mime
sofa. A policy that suits the Pennsylvania
iron manufacturer is not the policy to pro-
mote the welfare of Minnesota farmers
We hope to see the farmers of Minnesota
keep this fact well in mind when they come
to elect legislature.
