SAMsON,s SUCCESSOR.
A Prisoner Who Defies Combina-
tion Locks, Bolts and Bars.

tion Locks, Bolts and Bars.
Special to the GLOBE.
MoNTEvIDEo, Minn., Sept. 30.-Jacob
Endreson broke Jail here last night.
This is the second time. Sheriff Am
mondson had taken every precaution to
keep him. He was in the inner room of
steel cell. Four locks to unlock,
strong iron bars to pry off. Still he es-
capped. The sheriff put shackleS on him
and he unlocked them in five minutesin
the presence of the sheriff. The first
time he escaped it was found after he
was captured that he had unlocked the
heavy padlOcks with keys made of oak.
The keys were found sewed in
the band of his drawers. New
locks were put on all doors
each night and others during the day,
so there could not be possibility of
his having the locks to work with and
make keys again. He, however, has
Outwitted them and gained his free
dom. His trial was to have been to-
day. He is indicted for forgery, horse
thieving and iail-breaking; has served
several terms in states prison. He is
very communicating person, of no
great intelligence, medium height,
light complexion. He is the worst type
of criminal ever seen in this vicinity,
defying combination locks, bolts and
bars. Sheriff Ammondson declares him
a terror. Another prisoner was con-
fined in Jail with EndresOn. He took
off his clothes, threw them out and
tried to crawl through the hole where
EndresOn did, but could not, and was
found naked in the Jail this morning.
He tells all kind of stories, and it is
doubtful if any confidence can be placed
in any information he may give as to
the escape,

Two Fires i'm One Day.

HASTINGS, Minn.. Sept. 30.-The fine
residence of I. G. II. Densm0re burned
to-day. Nearly all the contents and
household furniture were consumed. 1t
is presumed the fire took from the
chimney. The sawdust and slab pile OF
John Dudley's mill at Point Douglas
also caught fire, presumably from
sparks from the smokestack of the mill.
The steamer Pittsburgh arrived here
to-day from below. the last trip of the
season. Owing to low water her pas
sengers were transferred to st. Paul by
rail.
The infant son of John Hedin, aged
one year, died this morning.
Rudolph Feige and Miss Mary Nopp,
residing back of Prescott, Pierre
county, were quietly married here Sat
urday by Justice Stephen Newell.

sALvE EPIsCOPE WINoNENsIs
Archbishop Ireiand's Message to
the Kew RiShnn of WinOna

Archbishop Ireiand's Message to
the New Bishop of Winona.
Special to the Clone.
WINoNA, Mimi, Sept. 30.-The news
of Father Cotter's elevation to bishop
ric was received to-day in dispatch
from Archbishop Ireland, "Salve Epis-
cope WinOnensis," which came this
afternoon while Father Cotter was driy-
ing on pastoral business far in the
country. The dispatch was unexpected,
and Father COtter, who had not been
feeling very well, was very much moved
by it. The news soon spread, and all
this evening the priests house was
crowded with friends eager to tender
their congratulations Judge Wilson
others not members of the Catholic
church were equally enthusiastic.
There is no Winonian who more thor
Oughly enjoys the hearty respect and
love OF his fellow toWnSmen, and his ap-
pOintment is received with personal
qualification by all. Bishop Cotter
was interviewed by the GLOBE
this evening. He said: 1.-The
honor falls unexpectedly upon me,
and | have not as yet considered
what course to pursue. The duties will
certainly be very oneTous; the terri
tory has been afflicted for the past few
years with bad crops, and is not in
condition to build up institutions such
as would honor diocese. We hope for
better things, and prospects this year
are certainly auSpicious. The field is
large and full of promise in every way,
and worthy of much better occupant
than the one selected"
The new bishop was born in Liver
pool. England, November 10, 1874. He
is the son Of l.. P. COtter, and came to
New York when, three years old. His
father was engaged in newspaper work
in Rochester and Cleveland, but came
to st. Paul in 1855 and worked on the
newspapers. He was city clerk for
many years. Joseph was educated in
st. Paul and St. Vincent's semi
nary, st. John, Mimi. and was
ordained on May %, 1871, by Bishop
Grace, becoming pastor at WinOna, dur
ing which time the congregation in
creased from 90 to 200 families, and
there are now twelve churches in the
county. Father Cotter organized the
Father Mathew society here in 1877,
and went the same year with Father Ire
land to the national convention in New
York. Ever since he has been an active
temperance worker, and has gained a
national reputation. He was president
OF the National union three terms. The
clergy of Southern Minnesota feared he
would be made bishop of Duluth, and
were OYerjOyed at his appointment.

CONsPIRATORs INDICTED.
Sheriff FIack and His Tools
Clutched by the Law.


New YORK, Sept. 3O-The grand
jury today returned indictments
against the conspirators in the Flaek di-
vorce case. Warrants were late this
afternoon served on Sheriff Flack, Will
lam A. Flack. Judge Mcneil. Referee
Meeks, Mrs. Raymond and George E..
Hart. All will be arraigned in court to-
morrow morning. In addition to hand
ing in indictments against the Flack
cOnspirators, the grand jury to-day pre-
sented supplemental report which
says:
This alleged action for divorce, from the
first step TO the final decree, was character
lied not only by gross irregularities but by
fraud, deceit and collusion. That such an
action could be so conducted, facilitated and
concluded in one of our highest courts of
record is matter of grave public concern,
and 1t behOOves the judges and officers OF
our courts, and all officials charged with the
administration of our laws, to see to 1t that
like practices do not prevail in other cases.
We call the attention of The legislature and
the courts to the fact that while consent,
connivance or collusion as to the commission
OF adultery is expressly prohibited, yet an
action of divorce may be Instituted and main
tanned by consent and collusiOn OF the par
ties thereto. We consider that the practice
of appointing referees in divorce cases is
most pernlclOuS, and is conductive to the
very dangers and abuses which the Flack
case has exposed. We call the attention OF
the judges of the court of common
pleas TO the system of ente~
ing the minutes and filing papers OF
served in the Office of the clerk of that court.
We also call the attention of the general
term of the supreme court 10 the unpro-
feSsional conduct i'll this case of two of the
officers of that court-Ambrose Mcneil and
Joseph Meeks. 1t is obvious that the decree
of divorce could not have been obtained
without the sanction of Judge Bookstaver.
That sanction was obtained partly by deceit
and imposture. and partly by either judicial
negligence or judicial collusion. We have
not determined which. We do not impute to
Judge Bookstaver corrupt action in the sense
of profit or gain-such actions alone are not
the only means by which the bench may be
degraded and judicial usefulness impaired.
Neglect, remissnesS and complaisance to
friends are liable to produce like results. We
are of the opinion that among other things
the crime of conspiracy has been committed.
The conspirators. from their position in life,
their knowledge and experience, have been
enabled to so shroud their actions that an un-
derstanding and discovery were made ex-
ceedingly difficult.
Bench warrants were issued for the
sheriff and the others indicted with
him, and all will appear in court to-
morrow except Civil Justice Mcneil,
who is too ill to leave his bed and who
will furnish bail for his subsequent ap-
pearance. The indicted persons profess
to be surprised at the action of the
grand jury.

FOUGHT TO rHE DEATH.
Belligerent Louisianians Indulge
In Pistol Practice.

RoBELIEU, La. Sept. S0.-For some
time past there has been newspaper
controversy between A. c. Poole, editor
of the Vernon News, and Lee c. Meal
pin, sheriff of Vernon parish. A few
days ago Poole sent McAlpin chal-
lenge, which the latter did not accept.
Last Friday morning the challenge was
repeated and Poole followed it up and
went into the sheriff's office with his
pistol in his hand while McAlpin was
reading the challenge, and said to Nc
Alpin: "Now is the best time we will
have to settle our differences" Meal
pin drew his pistol, Poole opening fire
first. Several shots were fired by both
parties, McAlpin emptying the contents
of his pistol in Poole's head and face,
killing him instantly. McAlpin died
few hours later from wound in the alb
domen, it being the effect of the second
shot fired by Poole

LONDON, Sept. 30.-The enthusiastic
welcome given to ex-Queen Natalie b1
the populace of Belgrade to-day astoni
ished if indeed it did not dismay, the
government officials, who sought to acs
centuate their displeasure at the per4
sistence of the royal lady in dIsregard4
ing their wishes respecting her visit to
her son. The extent of the demon.
StratiOn was so great as to render the
lack of courtesy on the part of the Offica
lalS of the government unnoticeable and
to move the queen to tears. The houses
along the principal streets, as well as
the residences of the nobility and in-
habitants of the better class were pro.
fusely and beautifully decorated. and
in all respects the reception surpassed
anything of the kind that has
ever been seen at the Servian
capital. The most notable exc
ception to the rule of decoration of prIs
vate residences was that of Mmer
Christich, wife of the late Servian mink
lister to Germany, and mistress of ex-
King Milan. This omission can be re-.
garded by Natalie in no other light than
as complimentary, since it is matter OF
Servian court notoriety that the ex-
queen took occasion to so publicly.

lack of decency in bringing his mistress
into the presence of his wife that both
were overwhelmed with confusion. 1t
is stated in official circles in Belgrade
that the young king, Alexander, has
become excessively jealous of his moth-i
er's popularity. but the courtesy showni
to her by the Russian minister, and
others not over friendly to the present
governing power of Servia. will un-
doubtedly deter the boys advisers from
counseling him to resent the demOnStra-
tiOn, or to treat his mother with any
marked lack of fiIial attention.
Ex-Queen Natalie, in an interviews
declared her intention to mold aloot
from politics and party intrigues.

BISHOP IRELAND.

Il
people of Duluth were trying hard to
have an episcopal see created there.
Winona had aspirations after a bishop.
1t was felt to be morally certain that the
immense see of Dakota would be di-
vided. Notwithstanding all these ru-
mnrS. nothing certain could be learned.
When Archbishop Ireland was asked
about the matter he used to look
wise and say that whatever ne
knew he was not at liberty to tell.
But at last all doubt is set at rest.
Fathers McGOlrick, COtter, Stanley and
Zardetti will become bishops of Duluth,
Win0na, jamestown and ST. Cloud, re-
spectively, while Bishop Marty, whose
Vicariate apostolic has extended all
over Dakota, will become bishop of
Sioux Falls. 1t is incorrect to say that
the archiepiScOpal diocese has been
divided into these bishoprics, for the
only divisiO of this is the cutting off of
WinOna and making 1t an independent
biShOpric. Archbishop Ireland will re-
tain apostolic Jurisdiction over the new
sees, as nU did over the old, but his
arehiepiscopal diocese is only that of
st. Paul.
Archbishop Ireland was asked about
the new partition last night, and said:
1.-The vast increase in the Catholic pOpu-
latiOn of the Northwest, the immense
growth in the wealth and influence of
the church, have rendered the creation
of several new sees absolutely neceS-
sary. The cid ones had become so
large that it was almost impossible for
one man in each to do justice to the
work under his charge. The diocese Of
st. Cloud, for instance, extended all
over the Northern part of the state and
my own over the whole of the south,
while Bishop Marty, of Dakota, had a
still larger. though more sparsely
settled district over which to travel.
The matter of subdivision has been ore
of such Importance that have found it
necessary to devote much time and
thought to it. The new diocese of
Winona Will cut off portion of my ter
ritOIy and will relieve me of much
travelling. That of Duluth will ex-
tend over the Northern part of the
state, being cut off from the old diocese
of st. Cloud over which Bishop Seiden-
busch ruled for so long. The diocese of
jamestown will be cO-extensiYe with the
new state of North Dakota and that Of
Sioux Falls with South Dakota. Father

COLLAPSE OF A CORNER.
Steenstrand's Cotton Ring Goes to
Smash

LONDON, Sept. 30.-A large number
of operators and others interested in
the cotton market gathered in the cot
ton exchange at a much earlier hour
than usual this morning, expecting the
greatest crisis of late years, owing ia
the corner in the September options en-
gineered by Mr.. Steenstrand. The mars
ket for that option opened quietly at a
decline of one point. Prices immedi.
ately dropped two points more, and
then steadied. The month went out at
6.22-24 d, thirty points under the highest
price for that month. Mr.. Steenstrand
holds from 10000 to 100000 bales of
American cotton, the price OF which to-
morrow will be u d below the price OBJ
tanned on Saturday. 1t Is the general
opinion that the cotton ring is utterly
smashed.
The total amount rendered in settle.
ment of contracts to deliver is 4S, 400
bales. Mr.. Steenstrand does not con-
ceal his surprise and disappointment at
was the large number of bulls that rode
upon his back that caused the collapse.
He had not anticipated that so many
would buy cotton, in the hope that
there would be a rise in prices that
would enable them to sell at a profit.
The quantity of cotton held by bulls
until the last movement was much
larger than he expected. They
must have lost heavily, he said,
bnt he was unable to give
an idea of their losses. He said he be-
lieved one result of the collapse would
be the abolition of shOrt-time mills It
is reported that the corner operators
will shih the bulk of their cotton to the
continent. The rumor, however, is not
believed, as the stocks in Europe are al.
ready heavy. The Liverpool market ais
rejoicing that the loss will fall mostly
upon continental bears. 1t is reported
that one large spinner in Alsace suffers
to the extent of e100,000 on this account,
but few failures are expected here.
STEENSTRAND Is SURPRISED
MANCHESTER, Sept. 30.-The excite,
ment on the cotton exchange here was
much less than at Liverpool, though the
can be definitely formed as to the full
significance of the collapse of the cot
ton corner until the situation is better
known, but confidence is expressed
that it Will be impossible to make a new
corner for October. 1t is not expected,
however. that cotton will become really
cheap. The prospect of fortnight'a
StOppage of the mills has diminished.
1t is reported that MI. SteenStrand'S
gain through the corner will not exceed
ESQ. 600. He expected to make $3.50, 600.
He has been buying since December.
when he purchased at 32-64d 1t Is
evident that at the last moment he
feared concerted action by the brokers
and spinners and tried to unload his
stock.
