That Is the Status of the Officers

ing Called.
CHICAGO, May pa dispatch from
Lincoln, Neb., says: President Fitz-
gerald and Secretary Sutton. of the
Irish National League in America, have
telegraphed to the different members of
the executive committees a call for a
meeting of the committee at Cleveland,
o., June IL. The object of the meeting
is not given, but it is undoubtedly in re-
gard to the action necessary in the face
of the pope's reScript, which has Gre
ated so much discussion in league cir
cles. In this city, the headquarters of
the league. Bishop Bonacum, the new
resident bishop, has inaugurated sys-
tenn of boycott against the officers of the
league, refusing Secretary Sutton, Mr..
Eagan and others admission to his pres
ence on account of the resolutions
passed at recent league meeting at the
instance of President Fitzgerald. These
resolutions declared the pope had no
right to dictate politics to the National
league or to interfere with its plans,
and further promised to the Irish mem
berS of parliament the continued sup
port OF the National league in America
to the plan of campaign, as followed by
the Irish leaders. These facts point to a
highly interesting session of the league
executive committee at Cleveland. The
membership of the committee COM
priseS the general officers of the league,
with one member for each state and ter
ritory and the Canadian provinces.

DIES MONIES, To-, May 26.-The bat
tie between the city and the narrow
gauge street railway is still waging.
Early this morning a force of sixteen
laborers in the employ of the company
commenced working on the street at
the east of Grand Avenue bridge, and
shortly thereafter a detachment of city
police put them under arrest on inform
alton charging them with the same
offense as that of their superiors ar.
rested yesterday. The trial of
the officers of the company COM
menced this afternoon and will
continue for several days. Constable
Potts, recently convicted of bribery, re-
signed his Office to-day. The jury, in
the Pierce case, in which the defendant
is charged with eXtortiug money by
threats, which had been out since last
night, came into court at $50 this even
ing and rendered a verdict of guilty.
The court will sentence Pierce Monday,
and give him till Thursday to file his
bond. The Offense was threatening to
serve search warrant on the proprietor
of an East side drug store if he was not
paid $50.

La CROSSE, Wis, May 26.-Specials
from Viroqua in regard to the murder
of four members of the Drake family
show it to have been the most hideous
crime ever committed in this part of the
country. The inquest was held to-day
by Justice Spurrier, and the verdict is
that Reuben Drake and his wife Ma
tilda, together with their two grand
children, Denver and Laura Dupee,
aged four and six years respectively,
came to their deaths at the hands of
some unknown person or persons the
evening of May "a. The bloody deed
was committed about o'clock. The
old people had not yet retired, but the
children had gone to bed and were
asleep. From appearances the muir
derer went to the front door and
knocked, and when the old lady opened
the door she was shot dead, and Mr..
Drake soon after shared the same fate.
Her body lay by the door and his in the
center of the room. Two balls pierced
each of their bodies. Mrs. Drake was
shot through the body and heart, and
her husband through the head and
breast. The children were in bed
room adjoining the living room, in
which was two beds. The little four
year-old girl was found lying as If
asleep, with her throat
CUT FROM EAR TO EAR.
Her head was nearly severed from the
body. The boy had evidently been
awakened by the commotion and made
struggle for his life. His throat was
also but and haggled, but not sufficiently
to cause death. His hands were cut to
the bone ON the palms and fingers as if
he had grabbed the blade of a knife
and had received wounds while trying
to ward off the blows of the murderer
who pulled the knife blade through the
child'S hands. The knife passed en-
tirely through his heart. The weapons
used were SiX-ShOoter revolver, 32-cal-
iber, and long and double-edged knife.
Two stray shots were found in the
room; one entered the ceiling not far
from the door. 1t is now known that
there was due Mrs. Drake on two notes,
81, 400, upon which 500 were paid May
IL. At that time it was reported in the
neighborhOOd that she had received the
whole amount. The papers and valua-
bleS of the family were kept in a bu-
reau in the sitting room. The drawers
were pulled out and complete search
had been made for the money. Every
thing about the premises had been ran
sacked. So far as known, there was no
money in the house. At most, only a
few dollars were secured. The supposi-
ton is that the crime was the work of
one or more persons iii the neighbor-
hood, and the only theory that can be
advanced for the killing of the children
is that they were awakened and had
recognized the murderers. Gov. Rusk
has offered reward of $500 for the ar
rest of the murderers in any part of the
cfaIl

pupils in the public schools was given
to-day at the Union building. The dis
play of fancy work, drawings, paint
ings, wood carving, decorations and
ornamental articles, all the work of
pupils of the Mankato public schools,
was attractive and interesting. Prof.
Bechdolt and his excellent corps of

for the fine exhibition of the fruits of
the past school year. The high school
display of domestic and fancy work,
wood carving and fret work, prospective
drawing and studies in crayOn and oil

ton. The teachers of the Pleasant

THE MINORITY'S WISH,
1t Is That the Mills Bill be Consid-
cred in the Committee of the
WhOJe-NeISOnsS RIufP


cred in the Committee of the
Whole-Nelson's Bluff.
WASHINGTON, May 26.-The house
adjourned at LOS p. m. and the Repub-
lican members Immediately went into
caucus. Up to $3.50 o'clock the caucus
confined itself to discussion of the
general policy of the party. Represent
ative Hovey, of Indiana, made speech
earnestly. urging the Republicans to
combine in an effort to force the Demo-
Gratis to take decided stand in pension
legislation. AS a part of his plan, he
urged that the bill to remove reStric-
tiOns upon the arrears of pension be
made party issue if possible, and that
the Democrats be placed in the position
of antagoniZing this and other pension
bills by refusing consideration for
them. Mr.. Hovey's remarks were
well received and led to a num-
Der of other suggestion in the same line.
Subsequently a resolution was unani-
mously adopted declaring it to be the
sense of the Republican members of the
house that the committee on rules be
instructed to report resolution as
signing days for all general pension
legislation, and that the order be made
a continuing one until all such legiSla-
ton is disposed of.
Mr.. Houk, of Tennessee, then moved
the following resolution, which was
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That it is the sense of
this caucus that the committee on
rules of the house of representatives
should report a resolution making it in
order as matter OF privilege to move
to discharge the committee on educa-
ton from further consideration of the
Blair educational bill and report it to
the house for further consideration at
the earliest practicable day during this
| session.
Members of the ways and means
committee next laid before the caucus
the formal proposition that had been
made by Mr.. Mills to dispense with
debate on the tariff bill under the five
minute rule, ana long debate ensued.
AT the beginning several members
favored the acceptance of the PROPOSE
tion, but in the end they were induced
| to join in making the action of the
caucus upon the subject unanimous.
1t was disclosed during the debate that
the general sentiment of the caucus
was that if the Republican tariff bill
| should be formulated it should fully and
emphatically represent the Republican
POLICY OF PROTECTION.
Mr.. Kelly vigorously protested
against the formulation of any bill, and
other members argued thatit was not
reasonable to require minority party
to submit bill which necessarily
would not fully meet the views of the
members of that party, but must be
constructed with view to securing suf-
ficient strength for passage from the
majority party.
Mr.. Nelson, of Minnesota, while
urging the preparation of a bill, re-
marked that
HE WAS NOT IN LOVE
with the Mills bill, and added that

ROUNDED UP AT LAST.
William e. Masters, Wanted for
Various Crimes, Captured at
GiJhv Oak

GiIby, Oak.
Special to the Globe.
GRAND FORKS, Dak., May 26.-Will-
lam Masters, wanted by the st. Paul and
Minneapolis authorities for forgery,
and by the officers here for horse steal
ing, was captured at Gilby, this county,
to-day by Sheriff Swan. As bold. dar-
ing villain, Masters is bowling sue
cess. He is scarcely out of his teens,
but the deXterity with which he has
committed crime and evaded arrest
would do credit to Jesse James in his
palmieSt days. Early last fall he was
arrested for selling property he had
previously mortgaged to II. l.. Whithed,
of this city, but owing to some miSun-
derstanding about the date set for
his hearing, the prosecuting witness
was out of town, and Mas
terS was again set at liberty.
As soon as he was turned loose by the
sheriff and before new process could
be served on him he went to the livery
stable of Lynch & Ryan, of this city,
and hired horse and buggy, which he
drove to Larimore, twenty-eight miles
west of here, where he sold the outfit
and proceeded to Northwood, eighteen
miles south of LarimOre, stole a span of
mules. which he also sold, and skipped
for parts unknown. He was not heard
of again for about two months, when he
turned up in Minneapolis, where he forg-
ed several checks upon various business
houses, got them cashed and fled the
country. A few days after this, how
ever, he was seen at Bottineau, Dak.,
where he was arrested by the sheriff of
Bottineau county upon a telegram
from the sheriff at Minneapolis,
but before he could be turned
over to the Minneapolis officer he
slipped the handouts and escaped across
the international line and went to Win
nipeg, since which time he was not
heard of until few days ago, when
Sheriff Swan, who has kept constant
lookout for him, learned of his being in
the northern part of the county, where
his parents live, and to-day, bright and
early, the sheriff drove out to Gilby,
where he found his man and arrested
him while he was yet in bed. His friends
made an effort to throw the sheriff off
the scent, but he was too shrewd for
them. and Masters is now safe behind
the bars in the county Jail.

Minnesota could be relied upon to give
Republican majority this fall regard
less of the action of the house On the
tariff.
Finally, Mr.. Brown, of Indiana. Of
fered the following resolution, which
was unanimously adopted.
Resolved, That 1t is the sense of this
caucus that the pending tariff bill be
taken up and considered in committee
of the whole, under the five-minute
rule in the usual way, section by sec
hours. then adjourned.
