Granted Right of Way.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-The committee
on Indian affairs has authorized Mr.. Gift
ford to report favorably his bill granting
the Yankton & Missouri Valley railroad
right of way through the Yankton Indian
reservation. Mr.. Clifford will make his
eport on Monday. 1t will say:
The Yankton & Missouri Valley rail
road is corporation duly organized I'M
der the laws of Dakota. The construc
ton of this railway is intended to be an
extension of the Chicago and Northwest
ern and Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul
roads in a northerly and westerly direc-
ton from the city of Yankton, which is
now the terminus of said roads, The
proposed line enters the reservation at
point fifteen miles from the northeast cor
ner thereof, and will run about thirty
miles in the reservation, being extended
across it in northwesterly direction, the
reservation being about thirty miles in
width at this point. There are about
1900 Indians upon the reservation and
they are making some progress in agri-
culture and stock raising The construc-
ton Of this line will furnish the Indians
upon this reservation with convenient
market for their surplus produce. The
Indians desire to have the road construct
ed, there being none nearer them than
fifteen miles,

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 22.-The sixth
annual convention of the National Law
and Order League opened here today
under the presidency of Hon. Charles G..
Bonney, of Chicago The league has for
its specific objects the work of securing

the encouragement and assistance of the
authorities in enforcing such laws.
Speaking upon this point, President
Bonhey says: ''We assemble upon the
broad platform of the Law and Order
Leagtie. asking only obedience to the
laws. sinking all partisan and seetarian
differences, agreeing to disagree about all
questions, as to what laws would best &C
complish the suppression Of the evils, we
aim to remove. but firmly united in favor
of unfolding the laws now standing in the
statute books of the nation, and of the
several states, and of compelling obed-
fence to their provisions, while they re-
main the law Of the land.

A Dynamite Explosion.

DULUTH, MINI, Feb. 22.-This morn.
ing at 7:15 ali explosion occurred in a
rock cut on Fourth street. Eighteen men
are injured, eight are now in the hospital,
one died upon reaching the hospital.
Others cannot live through the day. Men
and rock were hurled many feet, and the
shock caused qy the explosion was terrific.
The cause of the explosion was that some
cartridge fuse, last Saturday, had not
been exploded, and remained in the drill
hole. Work was resumed this morning
and the men had struck but few blows on
the drill when the dynamite exploded
with awful force. About thirty men
were in the cut. The blame is attached
to the foreman of the gang, who it is
claimed knew there was danger in order
ing men back to work. The coroner s
jury will develope the facts in the matter.
1t is probable. at least, four fatalities will
result.

Everything Lovely,

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 17.--Lewis, Of the
Knights of Labor, yesterday wrote to Presi-
dent Cabin, of the Reading road, saying that
in order to close up the strike he proposed to
order resumption of work at once upon the
assurance that after operations were in regu-
lar progress the subject of wages would be
considered, and that no one be Disseminated
against on account of the strike.
Corbin replied today that such action would
be satisfactory to the company. No one is to
be Disseminated against on account of the
strike, SO that it is not understood as pro-
tccting such men as have made or attempted
to make personal assaults, and further that
the miners are not to expect a higher rate of
wages than paid by other coal producing
ompanies.

Smells Slayer.

CHICAGO, Feb. 17-Chicf of Police Hub
bard tonight issued the following circular:
TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS REWARD.
Look out for and arrest A. J.Snell's alleged
murderer, VIM. B. Tascott, alias Gathright
alias Moore, alias Scott, alias Clark; twenty.
two or twenty three years of age, five feet
eight or nine inches high, 1855 pounds weight,
slim built, very erect, full round face, heavy
eyebrows, very fair complexion, dark brown
hair, thin on top Of head, cut short, large blue
eyes, small, thin dark mustache, may be dyed

pants, stripe half inch wide, dark coat, vest

head engraved with w. B. T. in monogram,
also rilsset colored oval valise eighteen
inches long and eight inches deep hung by a
will be paid for his detention and capture I'M
til officers arrival.
The startling features Of the case are that
VIM. B. Tascott, the man wanted, is son OF
prominent and wealthy citizen, Col. J. B.
Tascott, leading wholesale paint merchant
of the city. He was born and raised within a
block of the murdered man, Smell. Though
well educated, he early displayed liking for
the companionship of wild boys 1t is said
that he has served a term in the Kentucky
penitentiary for burglary. He returned a
few months ago, and his family and friends
tried to reform him. One of these friends.
Mrs. Henrietta Owsley, invited him to her
house, and young Tascott returned the kind
ness by robbing her. The theft was discover
ed, but Mrs. Owsley refused to prosecute.
For several weeks before the Smell murder
Tascott boarded with Mrs. Wicks, in the
same neighborhood, under the name of Scott,
and is thought to have been the one who com
.mitted all the burglaries which took place in
that vicinity before the murder. Since then
no trace of him can be found.
Mr.. SHELLS estate was probatcd today.
is estimated at 81 500 900, but Of this $780,
coo was conveyed to his wife four years ago.
He left no will, and the balance of the estate
will be divided among his widow and four
children.

Grief and Gloom.

BERLIN, Feb. 2O.-Berlin, SO says the pa
pers and people, Is more quiet this winter
than it has been since the winter Of 1851.
Most of the great public balls have been put
off for year, or, like actors balls, have
proved utter failures the single exception Of
this being on carnival night, when notice was
given of over eighty public dances, the major
ity of which were to have been crowed. In
higher circles the news from San Reno stop
crowded into the last few days before Lent
and postponed official dinners. People pre-
ferred to get together in small numbers. Even
then they are apt to talk about the crown
prince-which is not an enliyening topic, as
few Germans think he will ever be seen again
almost equally saddening, as it is generally
recognized that the emperor has given way
more to his feelings regarding the crown
prince and aged more in the past three months
than he has in the same number of years.
Few things have ever more deeply touched
German feelings than the tragedy at San Re-
mo and their kaiser waiting tearfully for
news of his son. The effect of the anxiety
becomes daily more apparent on the aged
ruler. He keeps up his old habits, going to
the opera, rising to greet the ladies presented
to him and bendin in courtly fashion over
their hands, but he rises only after repeated
attempts and many failures. When he bows
you wonder at the self-restraint of those near
him, who avoid giving offense by not offering
aid out of his unhappiness.
Various papers have attempted to get up a
sensation regarding the coming regency or
throne transferal. Among Germans general
ly there is no discussion or desire to discuss
such matters, their view being that the royal
house is too honest and loyal to quarrel for
power over sick beds or death beds.
