ACCUSED OF OBTAINING MONEY By FALSE PRE-
FENCES FROM o. F. BREKsE AND SONS OF Ball
TIMoRE.
Marion D. Newman alias @. NJ. St. Clair alias
Rev. Dallas NJ. Hughes alias Noble is still con-
fined in Jail awaiting the action Of the grand
jury. That body has already considered two
charges against him, and will probably make
their report on Monday. As published in yes
terday's STAR, they considered the case in
which he is charged with obtaining the money
from Mrs. Kate Smith under an alleged prom
Use of marriage. They also considered charge
OF obtaining money from o. F. Breese
for the Mutual life insurance COM
pany of New York. Some time in October.
1t is charged, the prisoner called at the Office
of the company in Baltimore and applied for a
was given employment under the name of Geo.
N. St. Clair. He was made general agent for
the company in this city and Alexandria. Soon
after his appointment he came to this city and
rented a room on street, near the Congrega-
tional church. While matrimonial matters
were being discussed with Mrs. smith, he sent
word to his employer that his family was COM
ing to Washington, and his request for q loan
was followed, it is alleged, BY the receipt
Of acertain amount Of money. He
it is charged, he sent to the Baltimore Office a
policy in the name of Rev. Dallas NJ De Hughes
for $40, 900 insurance. He was the Rev. Dallas
NJ. De Hughes referred to, it is alleged, for he
went to DR.. Harrison and got examined. The
examination was . satisfactory one, as shown
by the doctors report and the doctors descrip-
ton of the applicant tallies with that of the
prisoner. The prisoner was several times re-
quested to forward to Baltimore the amount of
the policy, but each time he notified them that
the minister was absent from the city. Before
the reverend gentleman returned 70 the
city the prisoner addressed a letter
to Mr.. Breese notifying him that his (prisoner's)
live over night. The following morning he
sent dispatch to Mr.. Breese as follows:
my daughter passed away at O'Clock this
q. m. Please send check.
(Signed GEoRoE N. ST. CLAIR"
He had previously given the Information
that in case of his child's death, he would like
to bury the remains in the family Cemetery,
near Harrisburg, and when the dispatch was
sent to St Clair

His Opinion of the Day-Church
Row.
Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 11.-Delegate
Clifford, when interviewed concerning
the Day-Cburch fight, said: 81 look
upon all Dakota Democrats with sus-
picion, especially those who stand in
with the executive of the territory"
(Which of the two factions do YOU
favOr?" II amt for either, and | don't
care continental which of them loses.
l think Day has, and he deserves a
greater following among the people
than Church. l haven't had and don't
want any fuss with either of them" In
reply to the question whose delegate he
thought would be recognized at the ma
tional convention. he said: 81 think
Day has the advantage, as he is a men,
Der of the national Democratic commit
tee, and from what | can learn the Day
men have the best case. The county
conventions were interfered with by
territorial appointees under Church,
and think this will initiate against
the Church delegates, especially if the
Democracy carry out their boosted doc
trine, that the people ought to rule.
This they may not do, for in my judg-
ment they have broken every decent
promise they ever made. For the first
time in Dakota politics almost every
territorial officer, from governor down,
has undertaken to control and dictate
the result of caucuSes and county con-
ventionS from one end of the territory
to the other, and l think the people of
Dakota will express their disgust with
these proceedings by giving rousiug
Republican majority in November

CONGREsSMAN RICE.
He Is One of the Busiest Members
in the National Legislature.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE express
sions of regret which have been uttered
in st. Paul and Minneapolis, in fact,
all over the state, are echoed and re-
echoed here. Edmund Rice makes
friends wherever he goes, and is popu-
lar wherever known. In the house of
representatives he is regarded as one of
the most capable, as well as the most
admirable, men on the floor. Repubfi-
cans as well as Democrats have kindly
words for him and of him, although he
is known to be one of the most uncom-
promising partiSanS upon all questions
of public policy. His years do not seem
to weigh heavily upon him, and he is
one of the most regular attendants upon
the sessions of the house as well as
upon the meetings of the committees to
which he is assigned. This morning, be-
fore the gavel fell, while nearly every
other state was represented upon the
floor by several members of congress,
all talking to their constituents or
friends, Mr.. Rice was the only Mime
sofa member present. 1t happens so
almost daily. Thus it is that
when the public can have access to the
floor they find Mr.. Rice accessible, and
do not have to drag him out of the house
during it's sessions in order to see him.
When it does become necessary to send
in card to see him, he is the most
prompt of them all to respond to it. No
constituent, however humble, is obliged
to stand in the corridor waiting the
leisure of rude and unfeeling or in
considerate member, when they call for
the representative of the Twins dis
trict. Moreover, he has accomplished a
great deal of effective work for his con-
stituents. A glance at the Congress
ional Record commands not only admir-
alton, but wonder. The work shown
upon the Record would fill a whole page
of the GLOBE, even if only the titles of
the bills introduced, petitions filed and
memorials presented, were printed.
The district may find younger man,
one who will seem more active, but
there is no man who can accomplish
more with less parade and less ostenta-
ton than Hon. Edmund Rice.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May IA decision
was rendered by the secretary of the
interior to-day, involving the question
of sufficiency of residence on homestead
entries. The case in question was that
of A. R. Flint, of the Crookston land
district, in Minnesota, who appealed
from an adverse decision of the COM
missioner of the general land office,
which held his entry for cancellation on
the ground that he had not complied
with the requirements of the homestead
law as to five years continuous
residence from date of settle
ment. 1t appears from the
records in the case that Flint estab-
lished his residence on the land May II,
1879, and resided thereon with his fam
lily until the following November, when
he was elected attorney for Marshall
county and removed to the county seat.
In February, 1888, he resigned his office
and returned to his entry and again re-
sided thereon until the following No
Vember, when he was elected probate
Judge of the county, whereupon he
again removed to the county seat,
where he resided at the date of making
final proof. His actual residence upon
the land was about fifteen months. The
decision is based upon a former decis-
ion of the department, in which it was
held that public officer may, during
the term of his Office, actually reside at
the capital or other place required by
law for him to reside without losing his
legal residence.

Both Parties to Hold County Con-

VcnJlOnS ln1S afternoon.
the Washington county Democratic
convention to elect delegates to the state
convention, to be held III ST. Paul on the
18th, has been called for 2:30 p. IN. to-
day, to meet at the court house. Since
the publication of the call the Repub-
lican county convention has been called
at the same place thirty minutes earlier.
The Democratic county Vention will
in all probability, in view of the fact,
adjourn to the city hall.
The Republican primaries were held
in this city last evening, but passed off
quietly, there being but little, if any, en-
thuSiaSm manifested. The Republican
county convention is called for 2 D. m.
to-day, at the court house, when dele
gates to next Wednesdays state conven-
ton at st. Paul will be selected So far
as heard from, there is no favorite son
that will be urged upon the convention
as a Chicago delegate from Saltwater.

A Compliment to Scott.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 11.-While Con
gresham Scott, of Pennsylvania, was
delivering his Tariff speech this morn
ing quite commotion was occasioned
on the floor OF the house and in the
Cleveland and Miss Rose Cleveland,
who occupied the seats reserved for the
speakers family. This was int ded as
special compliment to Scott, who SEN
timents the policy of the president, and
the fact that this happened so soon after
the veto of the public building bill of
Allentown, the home of Congressman
Sowden, of Pennsylvania, who opposes
the president, emphasized that the
whole Cleveland family loves its friends
and wants its enemies to make note of
the fact.

MESQUITE TREES.
They Are No Bar to Entry Under
the Desert Land Act.

WASHINGTON. May 1.-THE secretary
of the interior to-day in letter to the
commissioner of the general land office
holds that the presence of considerable
growth of mesquite trees upon lands
does not exclude it from entry under
the desert land act. This decision
affects a large area in the Southwest
and is result of petition signed by
the governor and large number of
other citizens of Arizona, which sets
forth that mesquite is not timber in any
Just Interpretation of the term; that it
is desert shrub and of no commercial
value, except for firewood and that the
