They STONED pehornInr Their ca,tl.

w. N. D. Bird and 1. E. Lambert
went to Madison to-day, Mr.. Lambert
going as counsel for Mr.. Bird and Har-
ry Davis in suit at tina: place to-day.
1t appears that the latter named GEN
tlemen had employed the Madison vet
Urinary surgeon to dehorn some cattle,
and the work was begun. whereupon
Barney Freeman, a well known MadI-
son man and an extensive dealer in
cattle, swore out complaints under the
law for the prevention Of cruelty to
anima's, and the dehorning was
stopped. The Tearing to-day will no
doubt determine whether or not the
job will be completed. If we are not
mistaken, u similar case occurred in
Illinois not long since, where one man
prosecuted another for alleged
cruelty in dehorning cattle, but failed
to make case or derive any material
benefits or satisfaction except the
pleasure OF paving the crsts.

THE INDIAN COMMISSIONER.
Morgan Defends Himself Against Roeons
Criticism

Morgan Defends Himself Against Recent
Criticism.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Ie.-Thomas =.
Morgan. Commissioners Of Indian Az
fairs, whose nomination Is under con-
sideration By the Senate Committee on
Indian Affairs, has prepared lestsE
defending himself against the charges
made against him. This letter hAs
been forwarded to the Secretary OF the
Interior and Q copy sent also TO i.
W. Halford, the Presidents private
secretary. In reply to the charges
made by representatives Of the
Catholic Church, that he had dis
eliminated against those Of the
Catholic faith in making removals and
appointments, Mr. Morgan sets up Q
general denial, setting forth the reason
for certain removals made. A young
lady, who is said to be q protege Of
Miss Drexel, and Catholic, the letter
states, was removed from Haskell In
stitute because she became infatuated
with an Indian boy and ''her conduct
caused so much unfavorable comment
that the lad was sent home to avoid
scandal" She was offered another
place. removed from the one she had
previously occupied but it Was de-
clined.
In the case OF the principal teacher
OF the institute, he was, thss lester
states, permitted 20 resign because Of
regard for his feelings, he having been
guilty Of drunkenness on several occa-
aions.
While three Catholics had been no
moved since July from Haskell Insti.
tute eight Protestants had shared .
similar fate.
At Pawnee School the superintend-
emit was removed, he having admitted
that ne had frequently caressed one
Of the lady teachers, and had often
been in her room at night for long
periods, when her room mate was not
present" In the investigation Of this
case the Commissioner says nothing
criminal was shown, but Q great lack
Of discretion was exhibited. The letter
continues:
ST do not know how many Protest
ants, how many Catholics, how many
in6dels, unbelievers or Jews are In the
schools service. No record Of relig-
ious predictions or faith has ever
been kept by the Office. ! do not know
how the discharged clerk who furnished
the article in question learned Of the
religious belief OF those in the service.
The only way in which discover it IL
when happen to remove teacher who
is Catholic and howl is raised some.
where by somebody"
Concerning the charge that he was
court-martialed and dismissed from the
army, Commissioner Morgan said, In
an interview: 1.-THE charge against me
was brought by two officers whom I had
court-martiaIed, and was done as .
matter Of spite and revenge. The
proceedings OF the court were eet
aside, and ] was honorably re-
stored to duty; and while that trial was
in progress received a letter signed by
eighty-seven commissioned officers who
knew all the circumstances perfeotly.
and these exonerated me and paid ne
a catering tribute, both as to my mill
itary record and private character

me GoriIIa Killed tha Dne.

FORT WAYNE, Ind, Dec. 17.-One
of the most singular, fercest and
blOodiest combats that have ever taken
place in this part of the state occurred
near Van Vert, Ohio, yesterday. The
fight was between an imported thor
oughbred bull dog and a young Afri-
can gorilla. They were put into an
inclosure twelve feet square and eight
feet high. A large crowd was present.
The fight was to be continued until one
OF the animals was killed. As soon as
they faced each other. the dog spran0
for the gorilla and tried to sink his
terth in the gorilla's tough hide, but he
could not penetrate the skin. In less
than one minute the gorilla had caught
the dog in his muscular arms and sunk
his long tusks repeatedly into his neck
and spine. In ten minutes the dog.
was dead. Ii was with great difficulty
that the infuriated gorilla was gotten
back into his cage.

TOLEDO, O., Dec. 17.-This morning
Robert Dalton, q painter employed by
the Lake Shore road, went to the top
OF the train shed to measure a sky
light for repairs. He was missed 3
9 couple of hours afterwards and the
foreman climbed to the roof to Inv e,ti-
gate. He as hoErified at seeing the
body OF Dalton lying on his back across
two electric light wires and the smoke
curling from his burning clothing and
aeah. The odor fairly sickened him
and seeing that Dalton was dead he at
once descended to the freight Office
and telephoned to have the current
shut OF so that the body could be re-
moved. 1t presented a horrible spec
Iacle. His face was black and from
the mouth great flakes of foam had
fallen over his face and onto the roof.
His left arm. which was burned fear
fully at the elbow was drawn up close
To his side. the elbow bent, and across
his back were two burning strips about
three inches wide. where he had
touched the wires. It is surmised that
in walking on the roof he slipped. and
