ROASTED TO DEATH.
zeigler's Livery Stable With Th~irty-seven
Horses Burned at Helena

HELENA, M. T. June 2.-[Special to the
Mlner.J-A most disastrous fire occurre,l
this morning at 3 a. NJ. in the large livery
stable belonging to r. Zeigler, with it's con
tents, being entirely consumed. The fire de.
partment responded readily, but the flames
and smoke were SO dense as to render it's
efforts almost fruitless. Streams from all
available plugs were turned on, with little
apparent success. The horses were fright.
ened, as usual, and all attempts at their
rescue proved unsuccessful. SO tina thirty
seven persisted. A lodging house over the
stable, for miners and laborers, was con-
sumed, all but one of the inmates, however,
escaping. Among the carcasses oil the
horses III the stable was found the charred
body OF a man. 1t was that of an employee
OF the stable named Jack who had re.
turned to the stable late, intoxicated, and
falling asleep, thus methis death. One other
man is missing. The scene where the horses
met their deaths was horrible and the
stencil almost uncomfortable. The poor ami
mails were absolutely roasted. Their en-
trails protruded and their legs and heads
were burned off. Their bodies were piled
o in all kinds of shapes, some in their
stall and Others upon the floor of the stable.
There must have been a terrible mount of
torture and suffering among them. The
were carried away this afternoon.
The sight as the carts moved down the
public streets was nauseating and sicken-
ing. Much disgust is expressed because of
the failure of the scavenger department to
their bodies from view. The loss
will reachforty thousand dollars or more.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE Speaker to.
day laid before the House a c~ommunica.
ton from the Secretary of the Interior con
tanning a request from the Commissioner OF
Indian Affairs that the band of Cree In
dams now located at Fort A%ssinaboine,
Mont, be allowed to come to Fort Belk-
nap Agency, Montana, for settlement. In
October, 1885, information was received
that these Indians, numbering 1877, had
crossed the International boundary line and
were located near Fort Belknap Agency.
They had III their .,ossession property the
character OF which clearly indicated they
had been engaged in the Riel rebellion. The
application was made to the Department
OF State for their return, but it was not
granted. The commanding officer in the
report urged that some disposition be made
OF these Indians and the Secretary saws he
thinks Congressional action should be
taken without delay to enable the depart
ment to deal with the problem. He
especially suggested that authority be
granted to place these Indians on lands of
some OF our Indians who were willing to
receive them, if not to set apart q small
reservation for their benefit. He recon-.
mends a $4,000 appropriation to be used
to relieve any restitution which may exist
among them during the next fiscal year.

The Climax of Resignation Ma Il.

7 Doubtful.
BERLIN, May 2.-[Copyright 1888, by
the New York Associated Press1-Nc
sooner has Emperor Frederick seemed as
sured OF some prolongation of life, than
the influences hostile to Prince Bismarck
display renewed activity. The conflict be.
tween the liberal tendency OF the Emperor
and the Chancellor's policy, which has
been latent at the outset of the reign, now
threatens to end in open rupture. The
Emperor is swayed by the opinion of the
Empress, who has resumed the active
dominance, she secured during the illness
OF the Emperor at San Reno. Prince Bis
marck had warning of coming troubles last
week in a communication from the Emperor
blaming Minister Won Puttammer for
abusing Government influences at elections.
Prince Bismarck returned from Varzin and
in an interview found the Emperordesirous
OF reconstructing the Ministry an l also op-
posed to giving assent to the quinquennial
landtag bill. Under the advice OF DR..
~Freidburg the Emperor signed the bill, at
the same time, advising Bismarck that he
hoped this concession would be followed by
reforms in the Ministry. When Bismarck

Emperor for the postponement OF publica-

Emperor had cancelled bis signature. The
report, however, is unconfirmed. The Min.
isteriai circle fear the worst. The progress
lists rejoice at the prospect of the advent of
a liberal regime. The crisis has not vet
reached a climax of resignation OF the Min
istry. Until Prince Bismarck has again con.
suited the Emperor the issue of the conflict
is doubtful. but the situation is grave
enough to cause profound uneasiness.
