Spread Of the Agitation In Cansda-A RI
Ignation Causes a Sensation.

Spread Of the Agitation in Cansda-A Res
ignation Causes Sensation.
OTTAWA, ONT, March 16-The agita-
tion against the Jesuits is growing. daily.
A sensation has been caused here by the
resignation ex-senator John Macdonald, of
Toronto. as President of the Dominion
Evangelical Alliance. A meeting of the
association will be held IN Montreal at
once TO consider the resignation.
Senator Macdonald is nOminally Lib
ersl in politics, but he owes his appoint
meut to the Conservative party which rec
o5nizsd in him a worthy candidate for the
UD9er House. DE absolutely refuses TO
sneak on the subject It was leared, how
ever that be objects to the action OF GER
-sin members of the Alliance In endeavo1-
inc TO utilize the organization for political
pnrroses. instead of what he considers It's
true OBJECT, united Christian work by the
members cfthe different Protestant bodies.
It is understood, also, that Mr. MacDon-
aid AFFECTS to the proposed action OF the
Aliiance in memorialzng the Queen dl-
rect on the Jesuit question, on the ground
that it is treating with contempt the rep
resentative Of Her Majesty in Canada.
The cause of all the trouble, Of course,
has besn the decision reached by the
Dominion Government net to veto the
Compensation bill passed by the Quebec
Legislature, granting the Jesui's $780,
O0O conversation for the alleged illegal
ro1iscation of their estates by the British
Government nearly century ago. Neither
party in the Dominion House wants 10 see
The matter brought up, bat Colonel
O'Bien. member Of Parliament, an ex-
treue O,angeman, gave notice Of intro
ducing a motion on the subject. He IS q
Conservative, and until to-day, was mex
ordble to the threats and entreaties Of his
party.
Sir John Macdonald threatened 20 re-
sign yesterday and 20 to the country on
the Jesuit question unless Colonel o Brien
withdrew his resolution on that subject.
O'Brien finally yielded, and will substi-
tute for his resolution statement IN the
House at the earliest opportunity.

with murder. At o'clock this afternoon
Irwin turned on the gas on the new line

tremely high pressure bursted pipe in the
neighborhOod, where half-dozen men were
at work, and a portion of the pipe or a
stone struck one of the men, whose
name could not be learned, killing him in
stantly. Another workman was seriously
injured and was taken to the West Penn
Hospital. Irwin claims the gas was turned
on by accident, and his friends are making
great effort 20 have the Justice of the
Peace of the village withdraw the charge
ofmurder and substitute one OF msnslaugh-
ter. There is great excitement at the
scene of the accident. Irwin will be taken
to Pittsburg tonight.

RYERsoN's STATION, GREENE Co., PA,
March 16.-Three droyers were passing
along the road by Samuel Hswett's barn,
in Rich Hill township, about noon yester-
day. Their attention was attracted to a
peculiar looking object hanging from the
lower bough of large poplar tree con-
siderable distance from the road. Idle
curiosity and bsnters among the party led
to an investigation, and moment later
the first mystery was solved.
The peculiar object was the dead and
mapgled body Of young man, hardly
more than of age. 1t was suspended from
the limb by halter, which was drawn
tightly about his neck, and from which his
face was bluish-blsck.
The back of his head was crushed in ev-
identity by tremendous blow with an
blunt instrument. His features also had
been fearfully bruised and gashed, and the
cosgulated blood made the sight thoroughly
revolving, and much increased the diff
culties Of Identification.
The man was plainly dressed, He wore
gray trousers with small brown stripes,
aud coat and vest Of lighter color,
bound with black braid. In his packets
were found several half ounce bullets,
cartridges, powder and absorbing cotton.
Tied TO an adjoining limb within reach
was an unlOaded horse-pistOl of large pat
tern.

LATEST FROM SAMOA.
Everything is PeacsfaI-PosItion OF Ger.
man Oficials.
APIA, SAMOA, March 2, 1889,
PER STEAMSHIP ZEATANDrA


PER STEAMSHIP ZEALANDIA,
AT SAN FRANCISCO, March .. 1889.
During the past month the German au-
thorities, both consular and naval,
have maintained a state of inactivity.
This condition of affairs dates bsck to
the arrival of tie steamer Wsinui
with dispatches for the German Consul on
January %, and is no doubt the result of
the orders then received. The declaration
of a state of war in the Samoan Islands
seems to have become dead letter, while
the military occupation OF Apis, which the
declaration of martial law would seem 10
have been implied, has no existence, save
IN the maintenance of strong guard at
the German Consulates.
A guard is still kept at the American
and Euglish COnsulates.
In view of the fact that there has been
no official retractiOn of these declarations
and of numerous proclamations with which
the town was flooded, and conseq uently no
settlement of the matter at issue, the Ger
man Consul has made repeated overture TO
Mataafa looking toward the adjustment of
the quarrel and the conclusion of terms of
peace, but the terms proposed al
ways embodied a strong German in
terest in the future administration
of affairs to which Mataafa declares he
will under no circumstances consent.
Negotiations have therefore been of NJ
avail, and German officials occupy th'
unenviable position of men who havi
deeply compromised themselves without
seeing their way clear TO retreat consistent
with the preservat' on of their dignity.

Detectives Have Another Brush With the
Desperadoes.

DesperadOes.
Special Telegram to the Sunday Register.
CHARLESTON, W. VA, March 16.-FOr
about one year a gang of Illicit liquor
dealers have been plying their trade in
Wyoming and Mcdowell counties, with
out either United States OF State license.
1t became so nefarious that hundreds were
engaged in the illicit traffic. The good
citizens of these counties, having expert
enced the evil, concluded about four
months ego to employ detectives to ferret
out and bring to justice these parties.
But their first attempt was a failure.
Later on they employed W. G. Bald
win, an Eureka detective, of this
city, who about six weeks ago appeared in
that section of the State and begun work
as q newspaper reporter, in order learn the
lay of the country. He sOOa got his bear
ings, and in a short time had secured evil
dcnce sufficiently strong to arrest thirty
odd of these moOnshiners; not having, how
ever arrested all of them, hs continued to
gain evidence.
o. Thursday last he went to Tipping
Creek to arrest negro named Charles
Saunders When confronted with war
rant the negro refused to surrender, and
endeavored to pull pistol, which was pre-
vented by Baldwin shooting him
twice in the right arm. This did
not stop the desperate, who advanced
on the detective and Baldwin shot him in
the head The negro, and only saved his
life by knocking the fellog down nine
times with a pocket billy sitter which by
the aid of others be was handcufed and
taken to Mercer County jail. The detec-
tive received serious injuries but not of e
fatal nature.
There has been, all told, forty of thia
gang of moonshiners arrested and lodged
in Jail. There are fully as many more yet
to be arrested, and Baldwi with his cfi p
GERS, is in hot pursuit. Information re-
ceived here this evening is that the de
tective and his aids are in close quarters,
and unless he receives assistance from the
county officials of that section he will be
compelled to leave. That section of the
country has been notorious iDT its unlaw-
fulness in moOnshining for ysars, nOtwith-
standing the government h's done all in
it's power to break up this Illicit business

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, March 16.-An-
other important discovery, affecting legis-
latiOn attempted by the late General AS
sembly, was made yesterday BY State Sec
retary Griffin, when House Clerk Newkirk
delivered to him two concurrent resolu-
tions passed the last day of the session.
One of them requires the State Secre-
tary to sell the Indiana Revised Statutes
for $175 instead of So. 40 a volume. The
other required the Terre Hauts and Indi-
annapolis Company to pay to the State per
cent OF its profits, delinquent for forty
years, in accordance with special charter
granted to the company in 1S47.
Neither of the resolutions bore the sig
patures of the Legislative presiding Off
cers, as required by the Constitution. State
Secretaey Griffin informed the House Clerk
that be would receive the resolutions Off
cially for just what he believed them to be
worth, and that was no more than their
value as waste paper. Through the neg
lect of the Legislative officers 10 sign the
resolutions the State will lose many thous-
and of dollars, that the Terre Haute and

ana roads, might have been required to

On account of the weather to-day the
proposed mass meeting on the park was
abandoned and the meeting was held in
Quinn, Woodland q Co.'s hall, which had
been offered to the strikers Here a big
crowd assembled and filled the hall to its
utmost capacity.
The members of the Executive Commit
tee Committee explained the proposition
which had been made to them yesterday
by the State Board of Arbitration, that the
strikers return to work and abide by the
decision Of the Board after a hearing and
investigation. They had been asked how
long it would take the Board to decide,
and were told it might take three months.
They had refused to entertain any propo-
sition that would require them to 90 back
to work without the advance This an
nouncement was received with cheers, and
the meeting unanimously endorsed the ac-
ton taken by the Executive Committee
and voted to continue the strike.
