MOB VIOLENCE FEARED.
Indignant Citizens Of Havana Plead In
Vain for Protection.

Robbed Prison Steward In
Trouble.

KEY WEST, Jan. 25.-During the last
turmoil and on the verge of mob vio-
lence. The trouble was caused by the
unscrupulous acts of Capt. Gen. Marin
and his officials. Although Marin has
been in Office but three months, his ad-
ministratiOn is reeking with crimes of
every description. The government tax
Is short $50, 600. the local board of alder
men have gobbled $4,000, the Card
enOs Office is short $4,000 and every
Office of trust is hOneycOmbed with
fraud. Two weeks ago the indignant
citizens made vain appeals to Marin for
protection. A mass meeting was held,
but Marin ordered armed guards against
the gathering and prevented the speak
ers from addressing the people. X.
PrOgressO, mercantile newspaper. de-
nOunced Marin's act and yesterday the
paper was suppressed by order of the
deSpOt. When Marin learned that sew
eral merchants were sending cable
grams OF protest to the home govern
ment he placed an armed guard about
the cable office. Then the bright and
fearless La'Lucha (newspaper) cen
sured Marin in caustic language, and
the despot now threatens to suppress
this sheet. On Sunday there were
twelve murders, one suicide. eight high
way rObberies, and four stabbing af
trays in Havana and CardenOs. Senior
Pezez, wealthy sugar merchant. was
found murdered in the streets. Senor
Antonio Luis, prominent planter of
GuineS, was kidnapped, and is now held
for ransom at some unknown place,
probably by the murderer Benque Ro-
nero. La'Lucha in its last issue says:

against the real estate firm of 1ngerSOll

alleges was collected by them as his

A complaint was filed yesterday by
Torrance McCauley, asking 80, 900 dam
ages from the Minneapolis, Sault Ste.
Marie Il Atlantic Bailroad company, for
injuries received while working on a
building which the company constructed
at the Minneapolis terminal. He al

Judge Brill has rendered Judgment
for the defendant and awarded costs in
the case of Thomas Z. l. Goddard VS..
James King.
The trial of Wenzel PrelOt VS.. John
Graft, to recover on contracts for mate
rial and work, sums aggregating S63S,
was begun before Judge Kelly yeSter-

a petition was filed in the district
court by the st. Paul & Duluth road
yesterday, praying for the appointment
of proper persons to assess damages in
the matter of certain property on Min

and Edward Drewry, which the road
wishes to acquire for railroad purposes.
Judge Brill granted Christine Larson
a decree of divorce from James Larson
on the ground of desertion. The plain
tiff is given the custody of the minor
children.

quently ascertained that he did not live

a divorce to the plaintiff, giving her the
custody of their eight-year-old daughter.

DAKOTA AGAIN.

Still the fight and turmoil over DakO-
ta's division keeps up. Senator BUT
LER comes forward with a bill, the
provisions of which appear ut length in
another column, as substitute for the
PLArT bill. He justly wants Dakota
admitted as whole, rather than 1t
should be divided, as the PLATT bill
provided. For the latter there never
was chance of adoption.
About the only thing that is deter
mined in the entire matter is that if
Dakota is admitted at all it must be as a
whole. Senator BUTLER knows this
very well, and it is probable that every
one of his associates knows it. The
people of Dakota themselves are op-
posed to division. Therefore it may
be put down as settled fact
that every congressional measure re-
garding Dakota which is not based on
the lines of admission as a whole is de
ViSed with view toward embarrassing
the real friends of the territory, and is
intended to delay the statehood which
is justly her right and which has so
long been denied her.
Senator BUTLER'S bill should meet
with unqualified approval in the senate,
but so long as partisan feeling is placed
upon higher plane than craftsmanship
ii probably will not. In the opposition
which it will meet Dakota will have no
difficulty in recognizing her enemies.

THE BUFFALO MASSACRE

The unwarranted and deplorable mas
sacre OF the buffalo, which went on un-
checked upon tie plains of the West but
a few years since, and which has re-
suited in the practical annihilation of
the great fur-bearing animal, is at last
bearing fruit. That the massacre was
not checked at the time was monstrous.
and, if then it did not appear i'm that
light, it cannot fail to do so now.
But six or seven years ago the buffalo
still roamed the prairies in vast herds.
They could be seen from the railroad
trains, and with adequate protection
they would be still in existence. To-
day but one known band, and that con-
SiSting of but a few score head, is known
TO exist. And what is the result? Five
years ago robe or coat of buffalo
skin, one of the best cold-resisting furs
known, could be bought for few dollars.
In the far Western country, where the
cold of winter is only overcome by the
liberal use of furs, this cheapness of
buffalo fur was veritable boon. Even
the poorest could have buffalo coat for
the asking, and i'll consequence the
coming of winter brought little terror
to those whose occupation required ex-
pOS,re TO the weather.
Now matters are very different. With
the disappearance of the buffalo the

NOT WELL TAKEN.

The Point of Attorneys That
Judge Keliy's Decision ON IOfii-
ciaI Publication. Annulled All
Cases.
In the suit brought against the city
by p. V. Pards, tried before Judge
Kelly yesterday, in which the plaintiff
asked damages caused by change of
grade on Case street, it was argued that
no grade had ever been established on
Case street, because the publication of
the council order establishing that
grade was void owing to the wrong
designation of the official paper, as
based ON Judge Kelly's recent decision.
Judge Kelly refused to sustain the p0-
Sition taken by the attorneys, holding
that the publication of resolution of
this character was not essential to the
validity of the order. He stated further
that his former decision regarding the
publication of assessment notices, and
the decision of the supreme court, did
not apply to all acts of the city council.
The jury retired at o'clock and re-
turned with verdict awarding $500
damages to plaintiff.

NORQUAY'S TROUBLE.

That is an ugly showing that the
Manitoba government organ makes
against eX-Premier NoRQUAY. There
has been mysterious disappearance Of
something like 100000 of the public
funds, and the eX-premier'S books do
not throw any light upon the wherea-
bouts of this lost money. The charge
made by the government organ that
NORQUAY used part of the public
money to perpetuate himself in power.
and the inSinuation that a portion of it
it was lost at the poker table may be
groundleSs. Yet on the face If the ease
as it now stands, NoRQUAY stands at a
disadvantage. Appearances are against
him. His loose system of bookkeeping
is too much after the fashion of some
American bank cashiers who are now
living in Canada to relieve him of suS-
piciOn. Whenever an administration
goes out of power in this country and
fails to show clean set of books, the
public verdict is that there has been a
big steal somewhere. 1t may be differ
ent on the Canada side of the line.

sooner than was expected. Before the
end of spring the pope will decree di-

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-Jack Demp-
sey, the middle-weight pugilist, arrived
here last night. In speaking Of the
proposed fight between himself and
Wall, the middle-weight champion OF
England, Dempsey said: 81 don't be-
lieve there is anything i'm it. If there is
money enough put up on the match |
will fight him, but as yet no arrange
ments have been made with view to
such meeting. l am not challenging
any one just now and am not anxious
for fight. If enough money is put up
and am pressed to fight, why, / am
willing to take off my coat and go at it.
But otherwise am not open to engage
ments." In answer to an inquiry as to
what he thought Of Kilrain's chances
with Sullivan, he said: II think Sulli-
van is the superior of any man in the
at all of getting the better of him.
do not think that Kilrain
would fight him if he got
chance. Sullivan will, in my opinion,
whip Mitchell with ease, and, If he
fights Smith, the result will be the same.
They may all be good fighters, but none
of them can fight with Sullivan. Z"
Dempsey is in training for his fight
with McCaffrey in Jersey City next
Tuesday, but he is III such good cOndi-
tiOn that he has only the simplest course
to go through. He rises early, and
takes long walks accompanied by his
trainer, Denny Costigan, after which
COStigan makes him run short distances.
COstgian says that Dempsey is in eX-
cellent condition, and that he will whip
McCaffrey. The latter is about twenty
pounds the heaviest of the two.

because of the great freight blockade al

By way OF Sunset they can bring freight
from all Eastern points far cheaper than

is evidence of the truth of Commissioner
