LONDON, Jan. 18.-The trial OF K. Z.
Graham, Liberal member of parliament
for North Lanarkshire, and Mr.. Burns,
the Nottingham socialist leader, was
concluded to-day. The defendants were
arraigned upon Identical charges OF
rloting, assaulting the police and unlaw-
full assembly, which Offenses it was al
legged were committed in Trafalgar
Square on Nov. 13, 1887. Considerable
interest was manifested in the case and
the court room was crowded thrOug hOut
the trial. Some pretty hard
swearing was INDUCED in by the
police, but their testimony failed to suS
tain the first two charges and the jury
returned verdict of not guilty thereof.
The third and simplest of the charges,
however, that of unlawful assembly,
was fully sustained. and upon this the
Liberal member and his socialist COM
paniOn were convicted. When the YER
dict was announced the spectators
evinced their Indignation by an out
burst of Kisses which the court had
great difficulty in quelling. The YER
dict amounts to moral victory for the
prisoners, since they were acquitted
of the serious charges, and they have
decided to make no appeal from the
Judgment of the court. The prisoners
are locked up in Holloway Jail tonight,
but will be removed to some other prison
tomorrow. The feeling of bitterness
between France and Italy, especially on
the part of France, is hourly increasing
through the influence of the Florence
incident, and many persons fear
that some other, preteXt for recalling
the French ambassador from Rome may
be found, should Italy not heed frances
warning and refrain from repeating her
offense. There is no probability, how
ever, that the French government will
yield to public -clamOr OF the counsels OF
imprudent advisers in pursuing the
matter any further than the circum-
stances demand, and the fears of the
timid will doubtless be allayed by an
ample apology from the Italian govern
ment in due time. '->
A scene of wild excitement was oc-
casiOned by the release of Father Ryan
at Limerick to-day and the police were
enabled only by the most strenuous
efforts to prevent a riot.
| Americans in Rome are heartily
ashamed of the dOings of the person to

veying President Cleveland's jubilee
everything possible to suppress the
| scandal his laches have created. This
person has been boycOtted by the men,
bers of the American legation on purely
| personal grounds ever since his
| arrival in Rome, and as he has
not hims elf seen fit to fulfill the obliga-
ton imposed ON him, and the American
| representatives decline to have any
thing to do with him or his mission, it

of the constitution will never reach the

THE MONTANA RANGES.
Herds Have Suffered But Little by
the Cold.

the Cold.
Special to the Globe.
HELENA, Mont, Jan. 1S.-The opinion
prevails among cattle men and stock
owners that the live stock interests of
the territory will be found to have suf-
fered very little during our recent cold
weather. When the first storm came
grass was thick and plenty on all the
ranges after the propitiOus summer of
last year, and the cattle were rolling in
fat in their lOng-cOntinued and excellent
grazing since last spring. Cattle in
such condition as Montana herds were
when the winter opened, are in shape
to withstand month of the cold
est kind of weather without doing
much feeding and would emerge
from the storm in just as good form as
ever, except the loss of few pounds of
surplus fat.
The recent form, however, though the
weather grew exceptionally cold, was
not hard upon stock in our territory.
High winds were the exception, and the
snowfall was comparatively light.
Moreover, where winds did prevail,
large tracts of grass land were exposed,
and where the snow lies it is not en-
crusted or deeply enough to prevent the
The past storm will have the effect of
pulling down stock somewhat, but with
continuance of mild weather, they
will be able to recuperate and get in
good shape for the February storms.
The case would have been different had
grass been scarce as it was at
the beginning of last summer, but with
bountifully covered, ranges, and the fat
accumulated during the summer, Mon
tana herds were in the best possible
/ shape to endure hard winter. Unless
more and severer storms come upon us
late in the season, ,stockmen say the
losses in the territory this winter will
not be more than the average. AS yet
no reports have reached us of any stock
losses whatever, and such advices as
are at hand indicate that cattle, horses
and sheep are doing we'll in all the graz
ing districts. John Norman, wood

The Logging Outlook.

OSHKOSH, Wis, Jan. 1S.-If reports
from the pineries are correct it is safe to
estimate that the crop of logs this year
will be only about two-thirds that of the
season Of 1856 and 1887. 1t was reported
to-day that the snow had become so deep
that several camps in the region of Tom
ahawk had broken up. News from
the Little Wolf country is also
to the effect that the deep snow
has seriously retarded operations. One
man who is putting in logs in that sec
ton writes that two teams are kept
busy about all the time hauling feed
from settlements to camp. The snow
is very deep and light loads only are
hauled. News from NOrrie is to the
effect that the thermometer was 81 deg.
below zero there Sunday morning and
40 deg. below Monday morning. There
is forty inches of snow in the woods
there.

The GENTLE ENEMY.

Preliminary Gathering Orders
a Convention to Be Held
Feb. 9.
What Was Done Yesterday
and the Men Who
Did 1t.
Pen Sketches of Prominent
Republicans Who Par
ticipated.

The Republican party of Minnesota
took the first steps, yesterday, looking
to state organization after the manner
prescribed by the national convention
of leagues held in New York last
month. This preliminary meeting was
held at the Union league rooms
in Minneapolis, and drew out an
exceedingly satisfactory attendance,
considering the fact that much of
the state is still suffering from
the snow blockade. The familiar faces
of many of the party wheelhorses were
seen among the gathering and made a
majority of it, the young eagles of local
RepublicaniSm being rather limited in
number. 1t was a distinctly Republican
aSSemblage. Diamonds glittered in pol
iShed shirt fronts, bI0adclothS and i'm
ported caSSlmereS were the prevailing
style of raiment, seal and otter trimmed
coats hung in the cloak rooms, and the
odor of fine HavanaS was in the air.
1t was a decidedly Republican meeting.
The son of toll of which the party is so
fond, was not present, except in the
mouths of the speakers, where he was
rolled about as delicious mOrsel. Still

of the nation was settled then and there
with neatness and dispatch. The Dem
Ocratic party and the administration to-
gether were knocked out of existence at
one fell swOop ana the kid gloved gen.
tlemen of the party of purity sat gloat-
ing on the ruins.
The meeting, as stated, was merely
preliminary. Its object was to set in
motion the machinery by which a state
league should be formed. auxiliary to
the national league. This was accom-
plished and delegate convention will
be held in Minneapolis on Feb. 2. A
"Staunch and trusty Republican was
appointed in each county to look after
the organization of at least one club and
have it represented. This was the bus
mess accomplished, and at its con-
cluSiOn the meeting adjourned in good
order. Everybody was satisfied and took
the pains to say so.

BUCHANAN's BROTHER.

Cured When He Was an Infant.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 1S.-'1t's sheer
nonsense and only fairy tale," said
Rev. DR.. Edward J. Buchanan to Her
aid correspondent, when asked what he
had to say about the story printed in a
st. Paul paper about a love episode of
President Buchanan in Erie, Pa. Rev.
Dr. Buchanan is yOunger-tWenty
years yOunger-brOther of the late Pres
1dent James Buchanan, and was seen at
his residence, ON the corner of Pine and
Eighteenth streets. DR.. Buchanan read
over the item about his brother and
then passed it to his daughters to read.
The perusal produced hearty laugh all
around.
mo, there's not word of truth in
this story" continued the venerable
clergyman. MY brother only had one
love affair-that with Miss Coleman, of
Lancaster, related in Mr.. Curtis life of
my brother. don't think my brother
was ever in Erie till after he was presi-
dent of the United States. Anyway, he
most certainly never lived there. Nor
was he ever printers devil, nor did he
ever work in printing Office nor on a
newspaper. l don't say there could not
have been a printers devil named
James Buchanan in Erie about 1910, for
there was printing Office and news
paper there as early as 1903, but the
James Buchanan referred to in the
item was not my brother, President Bu-
chanaD."
That the above story has little or no
value, is apparent on its face. 1t is an
established fact that few men know of
their brothers love affairs. Here might
Shakespeare's saying ''He who tells his
love, loves not" be made applicable.
Everybody knows that any man of com
mon sense seldom, if ever, runs to his
brother with the details of his

fact that the Rev. Edward was a broth
er of James Buchanan has not the
slightest bearing in the matter, for he
dent had been rejected by the fair Lett
tia Duncan. 1t Is not at all likely that
President Buchanan was wildly anxious
that the Rev. Edward attain
the age of understanding, that
he might be told of his
brothers humiliation. What does the
reverend say regarding the original let

possession? What proof has he in sup

to laugh away an historical truth that

charged. The court replied at length

treated for contempt of court and Ed

intention to be in contempt of court,
but insist that the facts warrant that
