GILMAN AND NELSON.
They Will Avoid Politics This
Year,


Knute Nelson and Charley Gilman
will take less of an active part in poll
tics this year than they did in 1886. 1t
will be remembered that their political
work at that time consisted of a trip
into Montana Oh the part of Mr.. Gilman
and cold water ducking by Mr.. Mel
son. This effective work cost McGill at
least 10000 votes. Since they will not
do as much as this now, Merriam can
safely depend upon a corresponding
loss for himself with little more added.
Mr.. Gilman is quoted as saying:
There is no reason why | should sup
port Mr.. Merriam any more than 10
vote for him. He was nominated with
out my aid and by methods which
cannot indOTse. | see no reason why L
should not remain Republican, but
my conscience will not permit me to
work for man whom L believe to nave
corrupted my party"
This remark comes SecOnd-handed 10
the GLOBE, but sounds very much
like Gilman. Nelson denies that he
will enter the employ Of the Manitoba
road He is coming home, he asserts,
to quietly practice law at Alexandra.

1t would be desirable also to obtain the
evidence of certain persons in the
United States. Judge Hannen said that
the application regarding American evil
dence, including that of Patrick Egan,
was premature. In regard to Mr.. Dill
lon, the court would order his attend
ance when the inquiry proceeded. on
condition that he abstained from taking
part in public matters and entered into
a recogniZance in the sum of 81, 1000.
After an order had been made for an in
'sspection of the bankers books, contain
ing the accounts of the National league.
the commission adjourned till Oct. %.
Both sides profess to be satisfied with
the preliminary tusSle before the COM
mission. The Parnellites are able to
claim an important success in enforcing
the production of the Times letters, in
Guiding those of Parnell and Egan and
one written by Campbell, Mr.. ParnelPS
secretary. Sir Charles Russell de-
manded the production of all other let
tiers connected with the inquiry that are
in possession of the Times. This wide
demand has been met by arranging for
the inspection of only those letters that
may be specified by the Parnellite's
counsel. The Parnellites again scored
by getting the court to instruct The
Times to formulate the definite charges
1t is prepared to prove. as well as allie
cations falling short of definite charges.
The decisions relating to the discovery
of documents, combined with the courts
expression of its determination to make
a thorough inquiry into the whole mat
ter, tends
IN FAVOR OF THE TIMES.
The first result Of the decision was
Mr.. Graham'S getting power of access
to the bank books of the league, involy-
ing the right to inspect the accounts
and minutes of both the Land and Ma
tional leagues. The courts declaration
that the widest scope will be given to
the inquiry opens up an interminable
vista of contention. The question of
the appointment of commission to eX-
anime Egan and others in America was
only touched upon; it will be raised
definitely when the commission re-
SumeS. Probably the suggestion of Mr..
Graham that Egan come to London will
be approved. Sir Charles Russell stated
that Mr.. Parnell deemed Egan's evil
dence absolutely necessary, and in this
view the Time cOncurs. AS soon as
the commission resumes both sides will
apply to the court to grant certificate
OF indemnity to Egan and other

BISMARCK, Oak, Sept. 17.-Secretary
Villas has rendered a decision in the
case of the Northern Pacific Railroad
company against John Waldron. Wal
dron located on the land opposite Fort
Yates on the Missouri river several
years ago and went into the hotel bust
ness for the accommodation of travel to
and from the fort and Indian agency.
Later the Winona Townsite company
was organized and the townsite was
plated. A contest ensued, in which
WaldrOn claimed his rights to the land
as a settler. In the land Office in this
city he won partial victory, but the
case was carried to the commissioner
of the land office. Mr.. Sparks rendered
a decision in Waldon's favor, anG it was
taken to the secretary of the interior.
III. +. Douglas, trader at Yates, Agent
Mclaughlin, of Standing Rock, and
others were interested in the TOWNSHIP,
and they felt confident that Secretary
Villas, following the policy of his prede-
ceSSOr, would reverse Sparks decision.
In this they have been surprised and
disappointed, for the decision of Secre-
tary Villas, sustaining Waldron'S claim,
was received in the land office
at this point to-day. The tOwnsite
company has received a title
from the Northern Pacific Railroad
company. but as the claim is
within the ten mile indemnity limit,
the decision throwing that land open to
settlement, with priority rights to set
tiers already on land, is looked upon as
a virtual deciSiod in Waldron's favor as
against the railroad company. AS it is,
the holders of lots who have purchased
them from the tOwnsite company are in
very nnenviable frame of mind, and
the railroad company, the tOwnsite COM
pany and WaldrOn are wondering what
will turn up next, with WaldrOn the
happiest of the lot. About 5000 worth
of improvements have been made on
the land by Waldron, and number of
dwellings and business houses are Occu-
pied by Innocent purchasers. The
Fargo q Southwestern railroad has
surveyed to this point, which, it is
thought. promises TO be one of the i'm
pOrtant Missouri river towns. The
townsite is valuable, and Waldron's
friends are jubilant.

A Belgian Sets Up Claim to the

BRUSSELS, Sept. 17.-Capt. Van Gele,
who has just returned from the Congo
country, states in an interview that he
believes that he himself is the man de-
aseribed as white pasha," and who is
said to have been seen in the Bahr-el-
Gael district. He says that at the be-
ginning of the year he had number of
conflicts with the natives from the di-
rection of Bahr-el-Gazel. Capt. Van
Gele's description corresponds with that
of the 'white pasha" as given by the
natives who reported his presence in
the district.

NEW ORLEANS, La. Sept. 1.-THE
Texas quarantine against New Orleans
was raised to-day, after the Louisiana
authorities had telegraphed a positive
and vigorous protest and declaration
that no yellow fever existed in New
Orleans. The telegram of the Louisiana
state board of health was as follows:
We give positive assurance that there is no
yellow fever in New Orleans. There has
not even been suspicious case this summer
Should a case occur you will be Immediately
notified, in accordance with the pledge en-

The members of the exchange solemnly
protest against the outrage and injustice per-
petrated upon our city. Such action is I'M

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Sept. 1.-THE
Official report for the twenty-four hours
ending at p. m. to-day is fiftytwo new
cases, seven deaths, as follows: Ruth
Gilbert (coloreO, Anna Burns, Sarah E.
Land, Caroline Wright, c. Peters,
Thomas Harris, w. d. Herricks. Total
cases to date, LOTT; deaths, 1873. The
number of new cases officially reported
does not include the report of the med
ical bureau of visiting physicians,
which came in just after the
official list closed and en-
braced fifty-four cases, many of vino,
however, were Implications. Only
seven deaths were reported up to 6
o'clock this evening, but it is certain
that there have been several others dur
ing the past twenty-four hours. The
irregularity of the system among phys
icians in making reports renders cor
rect figures tonight impossible. Quite
a number of unacclimated nurses
have reachsd here from various
places, and it is expected more
than dozen will be re-
turned to Camp Perry en- route North
tomorrow. Several physicians, who
came here without their services having
been accepted by the board of health,
are expected to return home. Among
the unacclimated nurses is reporter
for leading New York paper. None
but acclimated and skilled yellow fever
physicions and nurses will be re-
ceived hereafter. Six cases of yell
low fever have appeared at
Gainesville among members of the
Gainesville guards that recently went
to help suppress the longshoremen riot
at Fernandina. A Fernandina special
says that place is absolutely healthy.
There was a stampede from Gainesville
yesterday, but Gordon has been drawn,
and it is hoped and believed that the
fever cannot become epidemic there.
The news from McClenny is favorable.

Lobbying Against Liquor.

SpeclaI 10 tHe Olope
BISMARCK, Dak., Sept. 17.-In charg-
ing the grand jury at the opening of
court here this morning Judge Rose
called attention to the liquor laws, and
reminded the jurors that it was their
duty to bring in indictments against
any one violating them. The allusion
to the liquor traffic caused some COM
ment as it is rumOred that the WOmen's
Christian Temperance union will bring
charges against dealers for the violation
of the Sunday law. The judge simply
performed duty i'll charging the jury,
but the liquor question is one which
arouses discussion in Dakota, especially
since the late meeting of the W. c. L.
u. at Fargo, where it is reported the
sum of $1,000 was raised to defray the
expenses of the lobbyists in favor of a
Prohibition law during the session of
the legislature.
