BIsMARCK, Dak., Jan. 5.-About half
of the members elected to the legisla-
ture have arrived, and the next train
will bring large number. Some de-
sultory preliminary skirmishing has
been going on to-day, but no combina-
tions that will stick have been effected
yet. Candidates are numerous, but no
favorites have yet developed. Vice
President Fancher, of the Farmers
alliance, says that organization will put
forward no candidates for any office,
but will make stubborn fight for
amendments to the usury law, railroad
taxation and an amendment act Great
ing the railroad commission. Some in
terest is manifested in WinShip's con-
test of Walsh's seat in the council as
representative of Grand Forks county.
Winship says he has talked the matter
over with number of councilmen here
and is assured that if the case is as he
represents it he will be seated. His at
torney will arrive tomorrow with vol
luminous testimony. Walsh appears
confident and unconcerned. The con-
test side-tracks Walsh as candidate
for president Of the council.

So they set about framing a will, and
sooner or later, probably later, for the
introduction to will is apt to be rather
lengthy at so much a folio, they came to
the point where it became necessary for
Mr.. Jones to describe his property. Mr..
Jones looked up mildly in response to
the lawyers inquiry and said:
"Is it necessary fc- me to describe my
property?'
'.In this case, where your heirs seem
to be numerous, yes"
''But haven't any,"
"You havn't any? What do you want
with will then?"
"Well, you see, have a brother who
is practicing law and butcherlng out in
Idaho, and he says that lawsuits are so
few and butchers so plenty that he can't

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-The greater
part of the time in the house to-day was

divide the Sioux Indian reservation
into separate reservations was reported
and placed on the calendar. The res

was acceded to, and he thereupon

BAD MAN FROM BUTTE,

A Smooth SwindIer Named Jones
Victimizes a Helena Bank.
Special to the Globe.
HELENA, Mont, Jan. Sit transpired
to-day that the First National bank of
this city was on New Years day vic
timized by a swindler giving the
name of Jones, to the extent
of $500. Jones represented to
the bank officials that he resided
in Ceur d'Alene, where he said he did
an extensive business as a contractor.
He came here, he said, for the purpose
of buying a residence for his mother,
who resides in Butte. He bargained
for a lot, agreeing to pay the purchase
money, 5000, on Jan. 2. On that day he
went to the First National bank in COM
pany with the owner of the lot, and
handed the cashier sight draft
for $500 on the Traders Ma
tional Bank Of Spokane Falls,
w. I. To the cashier he said that to
save trouble he had had his signature
sent on from Bath. On r eferring to
the bank records the cashier found that
the signature was all right, the same
signature being on drafts for large
amounts cashed by Jones in November.
He at once cashed the draft, and at
Jones' request retained $500 to pay for
the lot, Jones pocketing $1,000. Jones
left town that afternoon, and has not
since been seen. The draft proves to
be a forgery.

FARGO, Oak, Jan. 5.-A letter from
Rev. c. W. Riches, of Park River, OAK,
to Rev. Mr.. Huntley, of Fargo, conveys
the first authentic information of ex-
treme suffering and privation among
the Norwegian settlers in Western
Walsh county. Mr.. Riches Immediately
collected all the supplies he could
in Park River and sent two
reliable men to distribute them
and investigate the extent of the
suffering. These men report that
they found about seventy families in
about as destitute circumstances as it is
possible for human beings to be and
still exist. The goods taken were dis
tributed among fifteen families, but
they, by no means, relieved them
of more than temporary want,
and immediate aid is necessary
as the suffering in many
instances is appalling. In one case a
woman was found in an old shanty,
through the cracks of which the raw
winter winds whistled in gusts, with
nothing on her body but a thin
calico dress, not sign of shoe
for her feet, and she was
unable to procure other clothing. Many
others are in similar circumstances.
Between forty and fifty families they
were unable to relieve in any way, and
in each of these families is an average
of five to six children with
NOTHING TO COVER THEM
but a few old rags. The men sent to
investigate were perfectly reliable, and
their report can be considered authentic.
These farmers came to this locality
few years ago, but have not been able
to realize to any extent from their
farms. Having but little money at the
outset, they have had to rely en-
tirely on the crops for means of
subsistence. They had all worn oN
their old clothes until nothing was left
but rags in the hope of getting good
crop and then buying new clothes when
they sold their wheat. When the frost
came and blasted their crop they had alb
solutely nothing with which to buy any
thing. They are mainly Lutherans and
because uncomplaining the real c0ndi-
tion was not known. Most Of them
have been living on kind of porrldge,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-There is very

elect recently. And Tor excellent rea-
sons. They know no more, apparently,
about the political situation than If they

Special to the Globe.
WAsHINGToN, Jan. 5.-The senate to-
day discussed Mr.. Edmunds' Panama
canal and the tariff bill without dispos-
ing of either. Directly after the MORN
ing hour Mr.. Sherman called up the
Joint resolution from the committee on
foreign relations declaring the sense of
congress in relation to the connection of
European governments in any inter-
oceanic canal, and asked its immediate
passage. Mr.. Sherman said that the
resolution was but reassertion of the
Monroe doctrine. Mr.. Teller said that
the only objection he had to the reso-
luton was that it was untimely, and
should have been adopted when the
construction Of the Panama canal was
begun. Mr.. Vest suggested, (While
faYoring the resolutlon) that it was
intended to have some bearing in favor
of the Nicaragua canal "a scheme to
which he was oppOseO. Mr.. Edmunds
disclalmed having been Influenced by
any such idea. Mr.. Call opposed the
resolution as calculated to ObStruct
great work Of benefcence to mankind.
Mr.. George regarded the resolution as
very important and necessary step.
Mr.. Reagan thought that it's language
was too broad and unrestricted, and
contained an unnecessary offense to
France. Mr.. Gray coincided with Mr..
Reagan, and said that the government
of the United States should not without
grave consideration, interpose an OBJ
Stacle to work which would advance
the
CIVILIZATION OF THE WORLD.
Mr.. Morgan took the view that con-
gress had no right to trammel the diplo-
matte action of the executive by the
passage of a resolution. If the idea
were to be expressed by congress, it
should be in the form Of concurrent
resolution only. Mr.. Sherman was
willing to have the resolution made
concurrent one, although he thought the
latter the better form. After further
discussion the resolution went over un-
til Monday. Subsequently Mr.. Gray
offered an amendment as follows:
'HThat any connection of any European
government with the construction or control
Of any ship canal across the isthmus of
Darien or across Central America that in
wolves any political control whatever Of the
territory through which such canal passes,
or interference with the government or sys-
tem OF government, WILL pe 'leWeu ey tne
government of the United States with serious
concern and disapproval, and will be con-
sidered as dangerous to our present peace
and safety"
The house amendments to the Mic
araguan canal bill were referred to the
committee on foreign relations. The
senate then resumed consideration of
the ta1iff bill. Various amendments
were offered and discussions had upon
them, but they were all rejected, and
when paragraph 1856, referring to laces,
was reached, the senate at 4:45 p. m.,
