Raismos were taken to the hospital. where
the former is dying and the latter either

the slightest clue as to the motive for the
crime can be learned. the woman being
unable, by reason of the wounds in her
face. to talk, n the prisoner is likewise
silent. Mrs. Stokes has a 7-year old
child and lived with her husband in the
house where she received her wounds.

BY the negroes. The widest confusion
prevailed and after about forty shots had
been fired the negroes retreated. The
whites then discovered that three OF their
men were wounded. Samuel Gust was
shot in the leg, James Mahoney in the ABB,
domen, and John Reiger In the eye. The
two latter are probably fatally wounded.
Immediately after the riot, and after the
negroes had retreated, the whites began
arming themselves. Everybody is now
armed. Mayor Baird has called out the
Old Dominion guards and 100 special po-
licemen have been sworn in. Intense ex-
element prevails and the negroes are re-

Another outbreak is feared. Attachment

A Dull Flour Market.
Minneapolis special, 4: There was a
more p%erceptible falling off in the -four
output last week, the grind being the
lightest in seven weeks. The production
of the week was lea, 600 barrels. against
1S0,1O0 barrels for the previous week.
There IRE two mills representing a daily
capacity of 1900 barrels shut down this
week, and more promise to be idle a week
hence. Novem' er 5 is the day set for
closing the government reservoirs up
north. and as they are at present supply
ing about so per cent of the water this will
have a decided effect on the power of the
mills. The -four market continues very
dull, with millers inclined to ask more to
Offset the advance in wheat. Tie export
trade continues without any life. Offers,
however, range q little higher than q week

MERRIAM'S RECORD.
1t Still Continues to Show Up
Against the Farmer.

The Farmers Alliance men have
actually just tumbled to the fact that
in that expensive and reckless session
of the house of 1887 that speaker w.
r. Merriam use his committee appoint
ments to further his ambitions and not
to secure good legislation. They cite,
after some research, that Van der Velde,
of Anoka, got craftsmanship for work
done for Merriam for speaker; that
DOnnelly had a pie ige before he did any
work for Merriam that he should go on
the railroad and judiciary committees.
They claim, also, that the temperance
committee was made up of the weakest
high license advocates in the house, so
if possible, in that way, to defeat
the measure by placing it in in
competent hands. That Mattson, of
Wilkin, was made chairman of the grain
committe with the distinct understand
ing that he was to prevent any radical
legislation ON that subject going
through. He came to st. Paul early in
the fall, met Merriam, worked for him,
and it is claimed did just dictated.
Knox, of Aitkin, got the craftsmanship
of the finance committee, it is said, as a
direct political bargain between him and
Merriam. Committee clerkships and
fees, these alliance disturbers charge,
were distributed as largess, going to
minor political workers who had the
Merriam interests close to their throb-
bling hearts. 1t is pointed out by them
that on the last days of the session in
the house several thousand dollars were
voted away as extra salaries which had
not been legally earned. and the speaker
was a willing party to all of these eX-
travagances. They propose to look the
record up in detail and publish it.

ACriminal Operation.

EAsToN, Pa, April 13.-The trial Of
DIR. Henry NJ. Cox, of Port Murray, n.
j., who is charged with having per-
formed criminal operation upon .Jen-

from Newark, n. j.. and died at the Ho-
tel Franklin in this city last February.
Four men are now under indictment be-
sides Dr. Cox, charged with being i'm
plicated in the alleged crime. Tho
principal witness to-day was George b.
Evans, of Jersey City, one of the ac-
cused. He testified to having made ar
rangements with DR.. Cox to perform
the operation, and to DR.. Cox fixing
his price at $50. DR.. Cox went on
the stand this afternoon and testified
that he had never met Evans and did
not perform the operation referred to.

AN EXCITING RACE.
Queer Franks Between Two
Engineers in Chicago.

CHICAGO, April 13.-There was an
exciting race between two locomotives
on the Burlington track last evening,
which almost eliminated in bloOdshed.
VolleyS of stones were thrown and a
pistol shot fired. The trouble began
at the Chicago & Alton crossing.
Burlington engine 1S1 was pulling
train of freight cars to the stock
yards, and engine 500 of the st. Paul
was hauling light train i'll the same
direction. AT the crossing the two
crews claimed the right of way and in
something less than minute stones and
pins were flying in all directions. At
last Switchman Bennett was struck i'll
the face with piece of coal. He inn
mediately drew his revolver and fired
into the cab of the st. Paul engine
which was slightly in the lead. Nobody
was hurt, but when the bullet whiStled
past the st. Paul engineer he put on
more steam and made for home. The
30" engine tried to Overtake, but on
account of heavy grade they lost con-
siderable ground. At last the crew de-
termined not to be beaten, cut their
engine loose from the train and went
laundering down the track. The race
was even, and neither engine seemed to
be gaining ground until the bridge
was reached. AT this point the "Q'
engine made squirt and it ran
down the ''Y" into the Western avenue
yards some distance ahead of their rival.
In the meantime the 20" train left
alone on the grade near the bridge
started to run down hill, and, as nobody
was on board, it went right across the
Chicago 81 Alton crossing. The signals
were against urain coming i'll that di
rection, but fortunately no Alton trains
were running there. at the time and it
shot safely down the track for few
more blocks, stopping finally at a
street crossing, and blocking their way.
An engine from Western avenue was
sent after the train and it was taken
away within half an hour. AT the
strikers quarters at Fourteenth and
jefferson streets indignation was eX-
pressed over the affair, and the men de-
clared that the "Q'' gang must have cut
the train loose with the intention of let
ting it run down the track and wreck
something at the Chicago q Alton
crossing. Detectives, who have been
ON an investigation of the reported
cause of accidents on the Burlington,
are satisfied that the reports are not
true.

LINDISMS.

Among the public men of Minnesota
Congressman JOHN LIND occupies a
unique position. With the possible eX-
ception of w. ID. WAsHBURN, he is the
one among them who deliberately ar
rays himself against the popular will of
his own state. and persists in posing at
Washington as defender of the pro-
tective tariff. His letter in last Mon
days GLOBE, stripped of its verbiage
and endless quotations from Wearisome
other letters, is nothing more nor less
than a covert announcement of his de-
termination to stand out for the tariff.
From the first word in his epistle to the
last there is not one manly, frank
statement in favor of tariff reduction.
With beans, potatoes and flax resting
upon an overeharged brain, he glowers
at the MILLS bill and tariff-for-revenue
Democrats, while placing his vote at the
service of the Republican obstruction
lists of the house.
CHANGING his letter over, we find one
out-and-out declaration from him-"I
believe that tariff on imports affords
the most convenient method of raising a
revenue for defraying the expenses OF
the government. further believe that
in exercising this right of taxation con-
gress, under the constitution, has the

MORE TEMPERANCE.
What the McGiil Men Propose to
do If He is RenOminated.

No indiscreet friends of Gov. McGill
are to be found fooling around the
Columbia association this year talking
about low license and possible vet0es
of high license measures. They are
talking more high license and making
preparations for startling move + if
their chieftain is renominated. They
propose to fool with the liquor question
some more, and to make a big bid for
Weakened Prohibition votes. If Nc
Gill is renOminated the convention be-
slowing upon him that cheaDly pur-
chased honor, will be asked to place in
its platform plank favoring the pas
sage by the next legislature of a county
option law. Such law would give to
each county the right to vote prohibit
ton within it's own borders or not. LII
license was voted then the figures to
remain at $500 and $1,000. It would
make prohibition possible in any county
of the state where majority Of votes
could be secured for it. 1t is the last
step but one to the submission to all of
the people of the state of the PROPOSE
ton to have a prohibition amendment
attached to the constitution. The Nc
Gill crowd are making hay while the
sun shines and this is Their latest offer.

OPPOSED BY THE LIBERALS.
They Will Fight All the Proposals
of the Government Bill.
By Cable 70 the Globe.

By Cable 10 the Globe.
LONDON, April 13.-Henceforth the
Liberals may be expected to vigorously
oppose all the proposals of the govern
ment during the present parliamentary
session, contemplating anything with
respect to the government of Ireland or
any home legislation raising the QueS-
ton of England's preference to the
Emerald Isle in the matter of local SUI
premacy. To-day's report of the Ma
tional Liberal club was the beginning OF
a deliberate movement to spur Mr..
Gladstone and the Otiiel leaders of the
Home Rule Liberal party to an uncOm-
promising fight against the progress OF
the local government bill, and to inspire
the rank and file with ardOr to fight out
the budget section by section. A pacific
attitude toward the government by no
means suits the Irish, and is quite as
distasteful to the Radicals, this feeling
being intensified by the growing cer-
tainty that the local government bill
was intended to deceive the home rulers
and prOpitiate the newly enfranchiSed
English electors. The conference of
foreign representatives to decide upon
a uniform method of protection of for
eigners in Morocco by vari Gus consulS
accredited to that country, which had
been arranged to be held on April 10th,
has been postponed until the end OF
May. Meanwhile, it Is understood, the
foreign representatives to the Moorish
court have arranged that the questions
involved in the proposed discussion
shall be held in allegiance until the de-
liber., tons of the conference are closed.
The case of Peters VS.. Bradlauge, for
libel, in the latter having asserted that
Peters received Lord SaliSbury's check
to carry on the sO-called wOrkingmen'
meeting in Trafalgar square, Will

laugh has subppnaed Lord Salisbury to
testify and promises to prove that his
charges are well founded. The build,
ings of the Liberal club OF Birmingham,
which were erected in 1856 at a cost of
964 900, were sold by auction to-day for
$500. a sum representing 10000 less
than the cost OF the ground, owing to
the detection Of Mr.. Chamberlain and
the subsequent revolt of several of the
latter's adheTents, who started a new
club, caused the failure Of the original
organization. EX-Mayor Grace, of New
York, has been actively engaged during
his brief stay in London I'm interviewing
prominent bankers and politicians and
has become quite a social lion. The
twenty meetings proposed to be held i'll
the county of Clare next Sunday, under
the auspices of the National league,
have been proclaimed by the govern
ment.

that he had nothing to say beyond
the fact that he had had

had no political significance whatever,
and he had come over on purely private
business. ''It has been rumOred that
you have returned to accept the chief

is no foundation for the report" replied

the following: 1.-THE English people are

trade would be bad for them on account
of the almost certainty of the in
dustrious and enterprising Ameri-
cans driving them out of the market
altogether. The English undoubtedly
admire Mr.. Cleveland, but not because
he is in favor of free trade; for, as a
rule, the people over there know little
and care little whether man is a Dem
ocrat or a Republican" He spoke of
Mr. Blaine, who was received in Lon
don with ''most marked attention." of
Chamberlain, destined to play great
part in English politics." and man
whom he much admired, and of Parnell
as clever tactician, au able speaker
and man whom he ''never met in so
ciety, because there are so many people
in society in London, you know, and
one may go long time without meeting
one. at all events, Mr.. Parnell is not
much in London when parliament is

respondent to-day on state politics. He
was rather guarded in his answers to
our questions, as will be noticed by the
following:
''Who is your choice for congress from
the Fifth district?'
II favor the MOorhead candidate, but
would cheerfully support either of his
competitors if nominated"
''In regard to the gOvernOrShip, are
mo, | am not candidate and shall
not be-"
"Who is your choice for that posi-
tion?''
Il can't say as L have any choice in
particular. The three prominent gen.
tlemen named for that poSition-McGill,
Merriam and Scheffer-are all excellent
and able men, either of which, if elected,
would perform the duties of that i'm
portant Office creditably to themselves
and with advantage to the state"
''Have you any idea as to which, if
any, of them will be the nominee of the
convention"
s'That is hard question to answer.
have formed no idea as yet. The can
vass for the nomination will:be spirited,
but among such men there should be no
bitterness. In regard to the tariff |
think there is an undoubted sentiment
in this state favOring an intelligent re-
vision of tariff"
