A ROSY REPORT.
Special Government Agent WAC Believes

Special Government Agent WAC Believes
There VIII be No Trouble.
WASHINGTON, April 81, - Secretary
Noble to-day received form the special in
spector sent to Oklahoma the FIRST report
made by an official from the newly opened
territory. This inspector, who is Dskc-
tan. and has been through several boom
experiences in that section, writes so cheer
fully and &C iavorably of the prospect that
the Secretary at once forwarded the letter
to the President for his information. The
inspector was hurried to Oklahoma two
weeks ago in order to formally establish
the land offices at Guthrie and Kingtisher,
and install the lahd officers. He has been
spending some days among the proposed
settlers along the Kansas border, and in
his report says that the reports of probable
desperate times in Oklahoma must be
greatly discredited.
He says the people who are waiting to
enter the lands are good specimens OF
Western settlers, rough in appearance and
ways, but Of a type which becomes the
frontiersman in every newly-opened sgrl-
cultural country-loT-sbidiDg and himself
the strongest supporter of law and order.
There are few desperadoes who have
come not for land, bat to feed upon the
crowds of settlers, but they are so insig-
nificant in number as TO be easily handled.
The inspector is certain that there will be
little if any disturbance, and believes the
civil forces amply able to cope with any
brawl which may arise.

DUDLEY HOT.
MIR. Harrison's Friend Declares War on
the Administration.

MIR. Harrisons Friend Declares War on
the Administration.
WASHINGTON, April 2l.-A rumor cal
culated to shake the foundations of the
government gains credence tonight that
Colonel w. W. Dudley is at 'outs" with
the administration, and what is more,
proposes TO let his views be known.
1t is said that in connection with the
tender made him of the Liverpool consul
ate or some other Office, he has written 8
bitterly caustic letter declining to accept
any compensation from the administration
which he, more than any other man,
helped to place in power.
Colonel Dudley's friends assert that his
anger is mainly directed against the Presi-
dent in person for what he deems cowardly
ing.-titude. They say that ever since
that Blocks of Five " letter,
purpoIting to have been signed by
Dudley in his official capacity as
chairman Of the Indiana Campaign Com
mittee, was abstracted from the mails and
published, Mr.. Harrison, while not dis
daining to profit by Col. Dudley's cam
paign experience, has never extended to
him the slightest personal recognition.
That when Dudley was lying dangerously
sick in New York, Gen. Harrison neither
sent nor wrote to enquire into bis condi-
ton, and, in fact, for al outward demon
stratiOn he made seemed not to care
whether he lived OF died.
The fire which has been smoldering, it
is now said, has broken ont into blaze,
and some lively developments are ex-
pected.

ANARCHIST PRIESTESS

Lucy Parsons Defends the American Con
stitution Against Assailants.
CHICAGO, April 21.-Tbe coming cen
tennial celebration of the American Con-
stitution was derided up hill and down
at the regular Sunday meeting of the
Socialists and Anarchists in Waverly Hall
this afternoon. Anarchist Lucy Parsons
was the only one of the crowd of two or
three hundred who had word to say in
favor of the document. A sample of the
other speeches was that by man named
Burlong.
"This 400 of New York." he said,
"who will conduct this performance know
where their safety lies, and they know
they are safe as long as the constitution IS
as it is. The constitution, eh! Well has
il been called covenant with hell.
What are we to dc? The platform OF the
Solialistic Labor party is the only thing
which shows how the living can govern
themselves. and not be held down by the
laws made By dead men. The consbitu-
ton means a government Of the people,
for the few, by ghosts.
All eyes were turned on Mrs. Parsons
when she arose
'eYou talk about the Constitution being
wrong" she said. THE Constitution is
all right. You are the ones that are
wrong. The people don't realize that they
have privileges they do not take. The Con-
stitution gives you all the rights you need
if YOU would only demand them. Enforce
the Constitution.
II wish to ask" she continued ssrcas-
tically, "if you don't know the Constitu-
tion grants us peaceful assemblage. Don't
II give us also the right to keep aud bear
arms? We will not be in position to get
our liberties until we enforce the Constitu-
ton. Every man who has not musket
behind his ballot, is a slave"

Gen. Merritt wnI Not Temporius.

ARKANSAS CITY, April 2l.-Gen. Mer-
ritt and four companies of infantry passed
through here this morning en- route from
Fort Leavenworth to Oklahoma City. The
General is under orders to police the Terri
tory with his troops until the confusion in
cident to the first rush is over. In an in
terview with the United Prees CORE
spondent he said the soldiers would not
temporize in performing their duty.
They are under positive orders to keep
order and quiet" he said, land they will
obey at any cOst"
An Arkansas City special says that it is
reported there that General Merritt has is
sued orders to the troops to take possession
of all guns and pistols carried by the
"BOOmers." They are not to be confsca.
ted, but the idea is to hold them until the
excitement is over, as a precautionary
measure against bloodshed. 1t is also said
that liquor will be rigedly excluded.

A Riot at LouisvIlIe

LOUISVILLE, April 21-Louisville drop
ped another game to-day by poor fielding.
A crowd of 5000, one of the largest ever
seen in the grounds, was present and in a
humor to be ugly on occasion. The outfield
seats were even so crowded that ball hit
there could not be felded 1t was ruled
that it should count home run. The
score was 30 counted for Latham in the
first inning and when Daniels allowed
Wolff only two bases on the same hit in the
seventh the mob filed the field threaten
ingly. After a half hours wraDgling he al
lowed Wolff the run. The battlngon both
sides was clever, but the errors of the
home team lost them the game. Score:
Louisville-...............0 o 0 ! 0 DO

Earned runs, st. Louis 6. Louisville g.;
base hits, st. Louis 12, Louisville 10;

claim that he was the caucus nominee, and
that Mayor Gibbens is politically bound to
vote for him. Moreover they say that
Hogan (whO is the present Collector and
a acOntable, also) wants every office in the

Expresses the Way Jim Menager Feels
These Days over His Resent Treatment.
Special Telegram to the Register.
WASHINGTON, April 21.-Informaiion
has lust come to hand that Mr.. Mensger
was making the air blue in the historical
settlement where COrnstalk was made to
bite the dust. 1t is known that Mensger
had the promise of Gen. GOf7s influence,
and probably others of considerable promi-
nence in the Republican camp. Some
weeks ago his friends believed the appoint
ment of Collector was almost within his
grasp and only up to within a day or
two did Mensger loose hope. His
immediate friends in Point Pleasant feel
very blue about the situation, and are
cursing the leaders right and left 1t is
said t. at Smith wrote letter to promi-
nent Republican at the Point, the purport
Of which was that Menager would not be
appointed; that the Office should not
be filed by a representative of the Wheel
ing liquor element. There is trouble
brewing, and Smiths goose is now being
cooked for. the next race in the Fourth
district. Ed Dunawsy, of your city, is
running the Wheeling end of Menager's
race which, outside ofsecuring bondsDen,
is not rapidly materializing Mensger's
case is certainly one that deserves con-
sideration at the hands of the bosses. He
joined the Republican party at his ma
jority and worked early and late and con-
tributed both time and money to the sue
cess of his party.
There is some complaint among old
West Virginians here, and much more
comes by letter, growing out of the ap-
pointment of men who are vulgarly
called carpet baggers," and the resident
applicants laid on the shelf. Notably,

WASHINGTON, April 21.-Che matter Of
patronage is causing trouble in the Repub-
hcan party To-day Senator Quay of
Pennsylvania, declared open war against
Senator sherman Of Ohio, and in speaking
Of Senator sheman's actions used such
language IS this 'I consider Senator Sber-
mans sctions discreditable and dishonor-
able and when I am found doing anything
for sherman again the people of this coun-
try viii know Of it, The row arose over
the solicitorship CT Internal Revenue. SEN
ator Quay had candidate for Deputy
Commissioner Of Internal Revenue, but
gave away for an Ohio man with the dis
tiuct understanding that Ohio wss to back
his man for the SOlicitorship of In
terual Revenue. Senator Quay was
away at his home in Beaver
Pa, taking a rest, when Senator Sherman
went to see Attorney General Miller and
pressed Mr. Hart, who will be appointed
as Solicitor of internal Revenue tomorrow,
for the Assistant AttOrney-G GeneIalship
This Mr. Miller refused TO do, but not
knowing the agreement which had been
arrived az by Senators Quay and Sherman,
said hr Hart could have the S0liCitOrship
OF Internal Revenue if he would take il.
They snapped at this offer aud the 6rst
thing Senator Quay knew be found Mr..
Hart's name bad been sent to
the President. Then he came
down from his home and blood
was in his eye. He went to see Mr..
Miller bat the Attorney General refused
70 withdraw Mr.. Hart's name. Then he
called on Senst0r Sherman, and it is said
that this interview was very waIm and
exciting. Mr.. sherman also refused 10
withdraw Mr.. Hart's name, and now
Senator Quay is breathing vengeance. He
says he viii get even with Senator Sher-
