Hal Reid Sentenced.

SAINT PAUL, January 14.-The princi-
pal matter disposed of in the district
court was the denial of the motion for a
new trial in the Hal Reid case, and the
sentence which followed. Judge Kelley,
who presided at the trial, associated with
the venerable judge Wilkin, were both
upon the stand AT P. NJ Reid was
brought into court, and the attorney for
the state moved for sentence. Further
delay was denied, and Reid was asked if
he had any thing to say, and in his pecu-
liar manner replied: Nothing, your
honor, except that am innocent, so help
me God" He was then sentenced to 10
years at hard work in the state prison at
Saltwater. He was considerably affected
by the sentence, and in passing out on
his way back to Jail he charged the press
with having materially aided in his con
viction. An appeal will probably be
taken to the supreme court.

Train Loads of Cattle Frozen in Nebras-

signed to Butte Justice
Lamar Commissioned.

KANSAS CITY, January 17.-Saturday
and Sunday nights were the coldest ever
experienced in this section, the thermom-
eter registered 10 degrees below zero at
one time. Reports of freezing from
points in Kansas are appalling. The
blizzard that ragged through this section a
few weeks ago left the people in an
exhausted condition. It is estimated
that 1900 people in Clark county are in a
destitute condition. The Presbyterian
minister at Hartford, Kearney county,
writes to the aid society imploring assist
ance for the people of that section, say
ing: If relief does not come soon hun
dreds will die. Specials from different
points indicate the casualties among
stock have been greater than ever known
in Kansas Horses and cattle perished
in their stalls. Two trains of cattle com
ing in on the Missouri Pacific were
caught in blizzard, and every animal
frozen to death. In Indian Territory the
entire range is frozen over, and cattle are
drifting badly, and the losses will be very
great. kilograms from points in Texas
report the mercury lower than ever
before known. The suffering among
people is very severe. Cattle on the
ranges are drifting south in vast numbers
and cattlemen apprehend great losses.

Love Victorious,

BUTTE, January IA somewhat sen
sati onal wedding occurred here tonight
the principals being Eugene Gordon, OF
Bonner d Cos. store, and Miss Grace
Tumbleson, boti prominent society
people. The gent is especially "high
flyer" Miss Grace's elder sister, whom
she is visiting, opposed the intimacy OF
the young people, having high aims for
Grace's future. The lovers, such as will
all be, were headstrong, and decided to
take the bit in their teeth and marry,
whether or no. By preconcerted
arrangement they met tonight and pro-
ceeded to the house of F. E. ". Patton,
and sent for minister, Rev. j. B. Clark,
who shortly appeared and proceeded
with the ceremony. In the meantime the
brides sister heard they had gone away
together, and swore out a warrant for the
arrest of both, Gordon being charged with
evil intent. Under sheriff Reynolds
arrived with warrant at Patton's just as
the ceremony was completed, and took
both into custody. Gordon asked for Il
lawyer, and they were taken to attorney
Drums office, who soon secured their
discharge, as the marriage neutralized the
force of the accusation.

Panicky Petroleum.

New YORK, January 14.-There was
wild excitement at the opening of the
petroleum market today. Nearly all ira
ders had selling orders, and they began
throwing over oil, without any effort to
steady the market. Prices in less than
ten minutes from the opening declined
from 90 to SO cents. Supporting orders
were then placed on the market, and
prices rallied to 91ss cents. There is
still feeling of anxiety, and liquidations
bv small dealers continue.
THE PITTsBURG MARKET.
P1TTsBuRG, January IA A decline OF
nearly five cents in the price of petroleum
this morning, almost created IA panic at
the oil exchange. The market continued
on its downward course till SO was reach
ed, when reaction set in, and, with good
buying, values recovered to 90 at l o'clock.

LONDON, January 1S-When Parliament
reopens next month it will be found that
the supporters of the government have
not been idle during the recess. nor the
recent cabinet meetings held in vain. AL
though the gag law was applied very
frequently during the last session of par
lament, it appears that too many plain
statements, which were offensive to the
delicately attuned ears of the tories, were
allowed to find utterance. This will be
remedied hereafter, and the rule made
more stringent, so that the government
will be able to pursue its present policy
without hearing the disagreeable ques-
tions it gives rise to. After settling the
cloture rule, they will give their atten-
ton to the local government bill,
which is, as yet, unprepared, ow-
ing to the dissent expressed by the
unionists on many points. 1t provides for
local magistrates being ex-otficio mem
bers of the board of guardians, thus
maintaining class distinction in local af-
fairs. This feature is extremely distaste-
full to a large number, and if the tories
are stubborn on this and some other points,
they will succeed in alternating many of
those who would otherwise be their sup
porters, but who are desirous of having
democratic local government.
