RELIGION BREEDS RIOT.
Catholic and Protestant Kansans
at Swords Point.

TOPEKA, Kan, Oct. 31.-Advices re-
ceived here to-day by Gov. Humphrey
say that the Protestant and Catholic
factions at Axtell, Marshall county, are
at war, and that a riot is threatened.
Last week. Rev. j. G. White, of
Stanford, Ill.,, announced that he would
lecture in the Methodist church against
the Catholic church on Saturday night.
Axtell is a strong Catholic community,
and an organization to prevent the lee
ture was perfected. The preacher, per-
sisted, however, and when about
to speak was seized by a
mob and thrown out of the church
window, along with several of his
followers. Several fights occurred, and
considerable blood was shed before the
Catholics got control. The meeting
was broken up, but the minister an
nouneed that he would return and de-
liver his lecture. Four of the Catholic
leaders were arrested and jailed at
MarysYille, the county seat, ten
miles west. Last night the minis
ter endeavor to lecture, and he and his
faction were again routed. An organ
iZation of Catholics has formed at st.
Bridgets, few miles distant, to release
the four men imprisoned at Marysville.
The factions are armed and a riot
at Axtell is threatened. Business
has been suspended and the mayor
has called upon the government
for the assistance of the state militia to
Quell the disturbance. Adjt.-Gen. Rob-
ertS departed for the place TO day. and
Company G of the Third regiment has
been ordered to the scene of the riot.

TRACKED BY A WOMAN.
An AVenging Female Responsible
for the Benders' Arrest.

SEDALIA, Mo-. Oct. 3I.-Deputy
Sheriff Dick, of La Bette county, Kan
sas, passed through SedaIia this after
noon en- route to Parsons, Kan, with
the two female prisoners, who are
thought to be the notorious Mrs. Bender
and Kate Bender. Mr.. Dick was living
in La Bette county at the time
of the Bender murders, and
knew the Bender family well. He
says there is no doubt he has the right
parties. The narrative of their arrest
at Niles. Mich, as related by him, dis
closes one of the neatest pieces of de-
tective work ever perpetrated by
woman. The arrest was at the instance
of Mrs. Albert Mccain, of Mcpherson,
Kan. 1t these parties are convicted she
will get $4,000. But it was not the
money she was after. She worked for
revenge. Her father, John w. Sand
ford, was murdered by the Benders at
Windsor, Canada, twenty-four years
ago. They fled to this country
and located on farm in
La Bette county, Kansas, four
miles southwest Of where Parsons
now stands. There they kept their
tavern" and did their deadly work.
When the BeHders murdered Mr.. Sand
ford, Mrs. Mccain, his daughter, was
but four years old. When she grew up
and married, she settled in Mcpherson,
Kan. Some years age diSsolute woman
came there with her husband and was
taken sick at her house. She believed
she was dying, and learning who Mrs.
Mccain was, on her supposed death
bed, the woman confessed to Mrs. Nc
Cam that she helped kill her father
in Canada, when Mrs. Mccain was
child. When Mrs. Mccain was look
ing up the particulars of her fathers
death, the sick woman recovered and
suddenly disappeared one night with
her husband. 1t was several years be-
fore Mrs. Mccain got clew to the
whereabouts of the woman, but she
finally located her at Niles, Mich. Mrs.
McCann went there last April. When
she had her plans perfected she noti-
fed the Kansas officers and presented
proofs satisfactory to them that the
women were the long lost Ben ders. and
a requisition was made for them. Such
is the story of Mrs. Mccain, who caused
the arrest of these supposed Blenders.

OF BLOODY MEMORY.
Old Mrs. Bender and Her Daugh-
ter I'm Route to Kansas.

ST. LOUIS. Mo-, Oct. Sion the CHI
cago d Alton train that arrived at the
union depot at z O'clock this morning
were two women who were supposed to
be the last survivors of the infamous
Bender family, whose bloOd-curdling
history sent a thrill of horror throug h
the country some eighteen years ago.
The two were Mrs. Eliza Davis, who
was on trial for some time in
Niles, Mich, on the charge of grand
larceny, and her mother. Mrs. Munro,
whom Mrs. Davis during her trial
claimed is the notorious Mrs. Bender, the
mother of the Kansas family of murder
ers. Mrs. Davis, in alleging Mrs. Munro
to be old Mrs. Bender, admits herself TO
be Kate Bender, and on her own admiS-
sion will be made to suffer in company
with her mother, provided Mrs. Munro
is proven to be the notorious murdereSS.
The deputy SheriffS who accompanied
the two women had been in Niles.
Mich, for several days during the trial
of Mrs. Davis for grand larceny, await
ing its conclusion that they might imme-
diately start with the two for La Bette
county, Kansas, where they will be tried
for the countless murders. of which
they are supposed to have been the per-
petratOrS. The trial of Mrs. Davis was
cOncluped on Oct. 90, resulting i'll the
discharge Of Mrs. Davis, and the detect
ives lost no time in securing a requlsl-
ton, and left Niles at the earliest OPP
portnnity, arriving in Chicago, and
leaving that place on the Chicago d
Alton last night. As soon as the train
stopped in the union depot this morn
ing, the women were assisted to alight
by the deputy sheriffS, and made their
way at once to the breakfast room,
where they remained until the de-
partHre of the Missouri Pacific train
for Kansas City, bearing them
with it on their way to EmpOria, Kan,
where their trial is to take place. While
awaiting their trial they will be locked
up in the jail in Wichita. The two
women were dressed in plain dark
clothes and both wore wells, which
were pulled down over their faces dur
ing the entire time they remained at
the depot. AS for replying to any
questions put to them, they absolutely
refused to make any reply whatever,
and maintained rigid silence, and
were evidently heartily glad when
called upon few minutes later to
board the train for their journey West
to escape their questiOner. At every
previous town at which the Blenders
stopped on their way to Kansas
they maintained the same Teticence
they eYinced at the union depot.

Pan-American Delegates Visit the
CAPITAL Of Illinois,


SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Oct. 3l.-The
three-Amerlcas congress party arrived
at this place from Kansas City at II

speech, advocating the change of route
of American sight-seerS from Europe to
South America and Mexico. and of the
necessity of immediate establishments of
lines OF communication from all princi-
pal American ports to those of South
America. He also paid a touching
tribute to the martyr president. Senior
Peraza, OF Venezuela, next spoke, lie
said during his speech that his voice
was but the echo of the sentiments of
the people of this country, and that fif-
teen free American nations were pres
ent to-day to pay their respects
and render homage to man re-
spected and loved by all men
alike. That the temb only contained
Tnla of hoc of
man, but his real SarcOphaguS was in
the heart of every living American,
both North and South. Senior AlfenZO,
of Chill, next said that his presence was
the result of a VOW which he made years
ago to visit the tomb of the man beloved
throughout the three Americas. The
delegates and party then went into the
base of the monument and viewed the
resting place of the celebrated man.
AS they came out each man was pre-
sented with book, "The Life of Lin
coin" On the way back to the hotel a
short stop was made at LincOln'S old
residence. AT 6 o'clock the delegates
and party were given a banquet in
the dining hall Of the Leland.
One hunered and fifty persons

the visitors. Senator Cullom made
strong speech for inter-Ameriean COM
MERGE and direct shipping facilities.
He welcomed the guests, and in his
speech said he advocated and expected
to see railroads built connecting the
three Americas, the two oceans united
by two or more canals, and t soon see
the stars and stripes flying from the
mastheads in every harbor of the three
nations. Gov. Fifer also made very
effective speech, much in the same
strain. Senior Velorde, of Bolivia, and
Congressman Henderson made short
speeches. At the close of the banquet

parture was held in the state house.

PINEvILLE, KY, Oct. 81. - News
reached here tonight by reliable parties
that Judge Lewis came up with Howard
and his gang yesterday on Martins
Fork and killed six of the Howard gang
without losing man. Three of the
men killed were named Hall, one by
the name of WhitlOck. the other two
names not learned. Judge Lewis and
fifty well armed men took din
ner near the camp of j. Z.
Meyer & Co.. OH the Louis
vile g. Nashville extension, about
thirty miles beyond Cumberland Gap
last Friday. Men who spoke princi-
pally with the judge say that he is de-
termined and will never quit his chase
until Howard and his gang are all
killed or driven from the county. Both
parties are being reinforced daily, and
more bloOdShed is expected. 1t is
thought that Howard has gone to VIr-
ginia. but is expected to return. The
best citizens of Harlan county are join
ing Lewis, and with such determined
leader there is no doubt the law and
order party will come out victorious,
and break up the gang that has been
terror to all Eastern Kentucky for the
last TWENTY-FIVE years.

Unborn Sports.

The foot race between Walsh and
Gardner and the dispute over the pay
ment of bets, was the chief topic of con
verSation yesterday among the Mime
apoliS sports. The Saltwater men who
had backed Walsh expsessed great dis
gust at the St. Cloud hackers OfGardner,
and finally agreed to receive only
the money they had rut up. The
wagerS of Zapp, of st. Cloud, and j. l..
Black. of Minneapolis, amounting to
over 81. 800, it is said, are still up. and
there may be a suit in court to settle the
matter. While opinions differ as to
whether the race was Ion the square"
upon the theory that il was not it would
appear that the st. Cloudites thought
they had sure thing, and when beaten
at their own game "Squealed." ana
backed out. The entire affair is hardly
OF n nature calculated to reflect credit
upon those connected with it.

IN THE LAST DITCH.
Virginia Republicans Resort to
Outrageous Measures.

DANvILLE, Va, Oct. 31.-J. 2. Henry,
C. P. Henry and G. w. Thompson, of
Pottsylyania county, were arraigned
here to-day before United States Super
wiser Tinsley on charge of violating
the Federal election law, by intimida-
ting voters On presidential election day
last fall. The parties who were arrested
at Roanoke yesterday had no witnesses
when brought TO trial to-day. and so had
to continue the case until Nov. 16.
Democrats here are highly indignant
over their arrest, claiming that the ar
rests were made to intimidate and pre-
vent county Democrats from taking an
active part in next Tuesdays election.
The arrested paIties. when required to
give bonds, found no difficulty in doing
so. as a number of wealthy Democrats
promptly volunteered to furnish the
bonds. Prominent local lawyers also
volunteered to defend the prisoners
next November.

was arrested by the police yesterday on
the charge of being a fugitive from

Hogan, lawyer. The judgments were
entered by Judge Waterman, and the
sheriff made demand on the banks and
the heads of the police and detective
departments. but they refused to sur
render the money. GarniShments were
quickly sued out, and the two banks
and Chief of Police Hubbard and Lieut..
Elliot were garnished. Late this after
noon writS of attachment aggregatlng
q, 327 were sued out against Harris by
the United States Smelling Company Of
Pennsylvania, the B. T. Smith Can COM
pany, of Maryland, and George F.
Kirum, of Kirum d. Tyler. The attach
mentS were placed on the $4,000 in
Lieut.. Elliott's hands and the bank GER
titicates. There will now be fight as
to whether the garniShmentS or attach
ments take precedence.
