aminer Harris has reported adversely
upon the Bankers Mutual association

this evening with Hon. c. II. Mccoy on
the subject, that gentleman said: TN
my opinion Col. Jumper is all right, and
the results will demonstrate that his
financial operations are pure and STAIN
less as the falling snow. No man in
Dakota has better financial record
than Mr. Jumper. He came to the ter

tanned his present position by the exer-
else of untiring energy and unqualified
ability and integrity. He is the head
of one of the strongest banking institu-

To Protect the Mails.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 4. flowing to the
alarming increase of attacks of robbers
upon mail trains in sparsely settled re-
gions in the far West, and the almost
constant peril in which the lives OF postal
employees are placed by these maraud-
erS, the pOStOtfice department has deter
mined to arm, at the expense of the
government, every postal employe on
these exposed railroad routes with Weap-
OnS of the most effective kind. They will
be supplied with an abundance OF am
munitiOn and every convenience neceS-
Sary for prompt work, and will thus be
prepared to successfully defend them
selves and the mails from the attacks
of these road agents, however Skillfully
planned or unexpectedly made. This
action has been taken at the earnest
solicitation of General Superintendent
Nash, of the railway mail service, who
has already taken steps to carry the
order into immediate effect. 1t is said
that many Of the Western railroads have
decided to arm their train men, and it is
expected that with arms in the hands of
train men, express messengers (already
armed) and postal employees. train rob
berries in the far West will be less fire.

EVANSVILLE, Ind, Feb. An i'm
portant arrest was made near here on
the Kentucky side yesterday. A men,
Der of the Owensboro detective force
captured Louis Tate, negro desperate,
upon charge of stealing hogs. In con-
versing with the prisoner, the officer
discovered that he was in great terror
lest he had been discovered in a more
serious crime, committed in Hopkins
vile, Ky. His anxiety and trepidation
finally resulted in a confession that led
to the discovery that the officer had cap
tured the murderer of negro killed at
Hopkinsville in 1884. Tate was induced
to give the particulars under the fancied
security that he could only be tried for
the stealing case. The authorities of
UOpkinSville were notified of his arrest.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-Senator Sabin
made an arg ument to-day before the
senate committee on public buildings
and grounds for the appropriation of
100000 for public buildings at Still
water. Although loaded with facts,
figures, statistics and logic. Senator
Sabin was unable TO present his matter
as intended and hoped by him. 1t
seems that Senator Stanford has already
induced the committee to decide upon
the rule in all eases requiring aspiring
towns to submit their eases to the super
vising architect of the treasury, and
that officer is asked to report to the sen-
ate committee as to population, bust
ness, public needs, etc. before the COM
mittee will act upon the bills. AL
though Senator Sabin had all the facts
necessary ready to deliver to the com
mittee, il was not considered official, in
aSmuch as not coming from the supervis-
ihg architect, and hence action upon the
Saltwater building was postponed in

Murder and Suicide.

MACON, Ga, Feb. An Baker county
young man went to the house of Amos
Grant, a colored farmer. Finding all
quiet and the house closed, he looked
around for the cause and found the body
over a projecting ioist in the rear of the
house. Inside was found Mrs. Grants
body in bed, her head crushed to jelly,
as if by club. On the floor was the
body or the wife's sister. Further over
was the body of Grants fifteen-year-old
son. The theory is that as Grant was
hard task master, his wife was about to
leave him, and that Grant, frenzied by
the thought of her departure, took a
club and Drained them all while they
slept and then committed suicide.

EASTMAN, Ga, Feb. f. Hubbard
HaIrell, colored boy ten years old,
was made drunk near here yesterday,
and going to the home of his brOther-in-

Filling large kettle used for washing
hogs with boiling water, Harrell COM
menced his work by inducing one of the
children to entirely undress, after which
he suddenly tripped the little fellow up
and landed him in the kettle, where he
was boiled alive. The next child re-
sisted, but Harrell felled her to the
ground with an iron bar, and while she
was still inSenSible threw her into the
cauldrOn with the boiled corpse of her
brother. The remaining child was the
youngest of the three. Picking it up by
the ankles, Harrell was beating its head
against a tree when, attracted by its
cries, the parents appeared and the
young murderer fled. The little ones
skull was so badly fractured, however,
that death resulted last night. At last
accounts young Harrell was still at
large.

WASHINGTON, Feb. At has been
ascertained to-day that five Republican
senators are ready to vote for the admis-
sion of Dakota as one state whenever
the bill comes from the house. and it is
well known and beyond doubt that a
majority of the house committee on
territories will authorize Chairman
Springer to report such bill within q
week or two. When so reported it will,
of course, pass the house, although prob
ably after a stormy discussion. If ID
can reach the senate during the present
session, that body will also pass it, and
Dakota will become the one great im-
perial state of the Northwest, which the
friends of her autonomy have labored
so deyOtedly TO bring into the Union.
This is not sensational, nor intended to
create false hopes, but based ON bed
rock information of the most reliable
character.

rooms of the Republican National

not large il was very enthusiastic. EX-
Senator Henry Nj. Rice. of Minnesota,
who was a territorial delegate in that
congress, sent his regrets, as did also
ex-senator George W. Jones. of Iowa,
who WAS then member of congress
from the new state of Iowa. Prior to

Michigan which included the present
states of Michigan, Wisconsin and that
part of Minnesota cast of the MisSiS-

and sent his regrets. These three dis

which were both amusing and pathetic

assembled. The history of the North
west was discussed in manner which

guilty to the charge, but claimed that
the assault was lustifiable. The cir
cumstances, as explained by the de-
fendant, were these: While Lady De-
walden, who is BurrOweS' sister
in-law, was lying at the point
of death her husband, who was
beastly drunk, insisted upon going into
her room and raising disturbance.
BurrOWeS demonstrated with DeWalden,
and, finding eXpostulation useless,
pushed him into the dining room and
thraShed him. DeWaIden, BurrOWes tes-
tilted, is a confirmed sot, and was drunk
every night during the time his wife
was lying ill of peritonitis. Sir William
Jenner and other prominent physicians
testified that it would be impossible to
save Lady DeWaden'S life if she was
not kept absolutely quiet, and deposed
that they had given instructions to have
her husband kept out OF her room while
he was intoxicated. The magistrate al
mitted Burrowes' provocation, but he
held that he still had no right to take
the law in his own hands. DeWalden
might have been arrested as Il dSOr-

beaten. Maj. BurroWes was therefore
remanded until next Thursday, mean-
while remaining at liberty on bail.
