THE MILLERITES ARE MAD.
NEW YORK sHAMEFULLY TREATED.
Friends of Warner Miller Severe in Their
Denunciation OF Harrison and His
Treatment of the Empire State
Vengeance thereafter"

NEW YORK, March 14.-"There will be a
hereafter" The speaker was ex-Congressman
George West the millionaire paper manufac-
turer and bosom friend of Warner Miller. Mr..
West had been discussing the treatment of his
friend Miller by the Harrison administration.
At first he was unwilling to admit that either
Mr.. Miller or his friends felt aggrieved and
were thirsting for vengeance, but finally his in
dignation got the better of his judgment.
Asked for particulars as TO what would take
place in the Thereafter" Mr.. West became
reticent again.
New York has been shamefully treated"
he said, finally. without this state Mr.. Harri-
son would not be president to-day. New
York should have had the treasury portfolio.
II Mr.. Harrison found that he could not
appoint either Mr. Miller or Mr..
Plat, then he should have taken some other
representative New York man and made him
secretary of the treasury. l told Mr.. Miller
when it was announced that he was not to
have the treasury secretaryship, that if he
accepted any other place in the cabinet he
would forfeit the respect of every friend
he had, and for one would cut his acquaint-
ance."
"What is Mr.. Miller's position now that Mr..
Plat appears to be on top?"
"Mr. Miller is not a candidate for anything.
/ think his attitude is one of complete indifier-
ence. He expects nothing. so he cannot be
disappointed"
"Will he submit tamely to being ignored
and cheerfully acquiesce in Mr.. Harrison's re-
nomination IL 1892, after the manner of a true
martyr"
THAT is something for the future. / cannot
say what Mr.. Miller will or will not do, but
never knew man to succeed for any length of
time in politics or business by practicing in
gratitude. There is always day of reckoning
and the accounts are generally balanced in the
end"
Mr.. Miller himself has returned from Wash
ingtOn. He still preserves a gloomy silence
regarding political matters. If he has any
wounds he does not propose 10 exhibit them
to the public, for the present at least, but his
friends are boiling over with wrath, and the
words of Mr. West will awaken a responsive
chord in the breasts of the Millerites generally
throughout the state.
I'VE are not mendicants," said prominent
Miller man last night, "and Mr.. Harrison will
find 1t out before the close of his adminstra-
ton. The men who are backing Mr.. Miller to-
day have controlled every state convention in
this state since 1881. 1t was not the genius of
Thomas Plat, as has been reported, that pro-
Chicago convention last year. As a matter OF
fact, Mr.. Miller could have prevented Frank
Hlscock from going to Chicago as a delegate
portance of the campaign that was coming on
and knew the only road to success was by the
harmony route. He chose that route as any
man would who was actuated by something
above petty spite. The Miller men were in the
majority at ChicaOo -

ATRIPLE HANGING.
Three Negroes Pay the Death Penalty For
Murder-The Executions Private.

Inr0e negroes Fay the Death Benalfy or
Murder-Ths Executions Private.
LITTLE Rock, Ark, March 15.-Three ne
groes were hung at Arkadelphia to-day by
Sheriff Abraham of Clark county, for murder.
Their names were Daniel Jones, Anderson
Mitchell, and Willis Green, the latter a
preacher.
The execution took place in an Enclosure
erected in the extreme eastern portion OF the
courtyard. Sheriff Abraham granted either or
all of them opportunities to make final state
ment. Jones delivered himself at some length
of a disconnected, wandering herangue, but
Mitchell and Green maintained stolid silence.
Jones confessed. in a measure, his guilt; said
he was there, but wanted it known that he did
not strike the fatal blow, and intimated by his
manner and gesticulations that the others
did so. Jones was permitted, at his re-
quest, TO lead in prayer after which they
were placed on the trap. The moose and black
caps were adjusted, and the trap went down at
10:40. The necks of all were clearly broken.
Jones was dead IN five minutes, Mitchell in
eight, and Green in eleven. The bodies were
lowered at the expiration of fifteen minutes.
They died in the exact order of the relative
courage and nerve evidenced by the conduct
of each on the scaffold. Green wore smile,
and carried himself without tremor; Mitch
Gill hhousn iAOb 81 ShANhS
possessed, was still firm and measurably in
different, while Jones was pitiably weak. He
had to be helped up the stairs, and sup
ported by deputy on the trap. While only
twenty-three persons witnessed the execution,
many hundreds surged TO and fro around the
inclosure Green's body was sent TO friends at
Curtis, but at this writing the bodies of the
others have not been claimed
The crime for which the were hanged
was the murder of Arthur Horton also colored,
Sept q, 1887. Four other negroes were i'm
plicated in a Jogging which was administered
TO Horton, Just before he was killed. One of
them turned states evidence. On that fatal
night for Horton, the seven men entered his
room, their faces covered with flour, wrapped
a quilt about his head and shoulders and forci-
bly, carried him 80 yards into the woods, where
he was given $50 lashes. Then, as he promised
to leave the state, he was left sitting on a log,
and the crowd apparently dispersed. 1t was
noticed, however that the three sufferers of to-
day fingered behind the other four, and were
finally separated from them. Next day Hor-
toms body was found lifeless, with the skull,
collar-bone and two ribs crushed in. The
neighborhood effected the arrest of the prin-
cipals before Sheriff Abraham was notified of
the occurrence.

A SCHEME no Down NV.
Why President Harrison Appointed His
Law Partner Attorney General.

IChicago News Washington Special.
1t is well known that President Harrison
owes more to John c. New than to any one
else. To say nothing of News support of him
In his paper before the convention, he repre-
sented Harrison at the convention and made
promises and trades which secured support
After the election, Harrison was puzzled how
to get rid of New. He thought New was not
TT for cabinet position for more reasons than
one. 1t finally occurred TO Harrison that by
making his partner, Miller, Encouragement,
on the ground that he, as president was en-
titled TO have a confidential friend near him,
and by making New minister to Vienna, en-
barraSsment would be avoided. lie believed
that the public would justify him in the selec-
ton of his law partner, and that New would be
at a disadvantage should he complain.
Miller was accordingly appointed, with the
understanding that after New should be out OF
the country and thus disposed of ne Miller
would resign and enable Harrison to take care
OF some one else.
Some who were dubious about the truth of
the above have had their eyes opened within
the last few days. Although Mr.. Clarkson of
Iowa was anxious to go into the cabinet, and
declared that he would have cabinet position
or nothing, he has agreed to accept the position
OF hrst assistant postmaster-general. The pub
lie need not be surprised if, in the near future,
Mr. Miller resigns as attorney-general and Gen.
Noble takes his place, to be in turn himself
succeeded by GARRISON; but not by any means
until New Is well out of the country. Some of
the HoOsiers have been so indiscreet as to say
that if they thus get rid of New and get
his paper into other hands he will never be able
to regain his footing in Indiana, thus lost
through the Austrian mission.
Brother New may learn at last that the old
saying Is true, put not your faith in princes"
even when they are Christian statesmen.

A BLOW TO THE COAL TRADE.
The Failure of the Miners and the Operators
to Agree Upon q Scale.


PITTsBURG, March 15.-The failure of the
miners and operators to agree upon scale Of
wages at the Columbus convention, and the
dissOlving of the interstate agreement are re-
garded as constituting one of the most serious
blows that the coal trade in Pittsburg has re-
ceived for several years. The operators from
this region who attended the convention re-
turned home to-day. They say that the failure
TO agree upon n price means that each operator
hereafter will act for himself, and means the
cutting of the price of coal and mining, and
possibly strikes.
The question also comes up how ii will
affect the different associations of the operators
and there are already rumOrs of these being
dissolved. The operators say that the break
ing of the interstate agreement was not only
due to the Indiana and Illinois operators, but
TO the rivalry between the Progressive union Of
miners and the K. of L. 1t is claimed that the
Progressive union officials would not have
placed on record a reduction of wages as their
first official act

river operators are debating making reduc-
ton in wages Some of the operators talk Of

An Eleven-Year-Old Boy Suffering From
HydrophObia Apparently Cured.
WOOSTER, o., March ia remarkable re-

We rs ago the boy then about two and one-half
years of age, was bitten on the upper lip by the
family dog. The canine appeared to be all
right at that time, but later manifested signs
of madness and was killed. Nothing serious

soon healed.
Six weeks ago young Barkly came home

ailment was supposed 10 be muscular rheuma-
tism, as his entire muscular system appeared
TO be partly paralyzed. His condition became
worse and other physicians were called in for
consultation. The patient became subject to
parOxysms. during which he would growl and
bark like dog and attempt to snap at and
bite persons around him. The paroxysms
began by the boys painting and sticking out
his tongue. His eyes would become CLASSY
and he would remain in this state for about
twenty minutes and then sink into partially
paralytic condition. While In paroxysm he
was possessed of great strength and was bound
to his bed and two men were necessary to hold
his hands back.
consultation was held and the ailment pro-
nounced hydrophobia. The attending ply

HARRISON. PORTER AND NEW.
Information From Washington About the
Old Racket.
Washington Special


Porter was delegate to the Chicago owen
ton, but he was not admitted to the confidence
of Harrison's friends; and, while Mr.. New was
spending his money and exhausting every
physical and mental effort to secure Mr.. Har-
rison's election, Gov Porter was sitting idly by
in a corridor of hotel, chatting with old
friends, and taking very little interest in
the canvass. After Harrison's nomination,
when the state convention met, ii was thought
necessary TO put Porter at the head of
the state ticket in order 10 insure a re-
publican victory, but he declined to be a
candidate. Then Gen. Harrison. at the advice
of Mr.. New and others of his supporters, called
upon Gov. Porter and asked him as a personal
favor TO accept the gubernatorial nomination.
This was the first time the two men had met
since the encounter on the street after the Tom
hnsOn hall meeting. Porter went into the cam
paign, made speeches. and did good work, but
he was not in Harrison's confidence nor did
the latter have any communications with him.
On the contrary, Mr.. New acted as the eyes,
ears, arms and legs of the president-elect, run
ming back and forth to New York for him. de-
voting his entire time TO his service, and giving
him the use of his paper, the journal, and
making large cash contribution TO pay the
expenses of the campaign Immediately after
the inauguration President Harrison took pains
to distinguish his old enemy above all other
Indiana men by rendering him the mission to
Rome, and left Mr.. New entirely in the dark
ness. These facts probably explain why Mr.
New will not accept foreign mission.

of Illinois denied to-day the motion to correct

preme court is concerned.
After the U. S. supreme court has refused to
grant writ of error, and those condemned to
death had been executed and the others were
in the penitentiary, their attorney moved
the supreme court to correct the judg-
ment. The particular portion of the judgment
sought to be corrected is the wording of the
first part of the order, NOW on this day again
came the said parties" ETC., the defendants at
torneys urging that the parties were not in
fact, present as recited in the order. The
court. in denying the motion, holds that it has
no original Jurisdiction of parties in such
cases, It's Office being to review the record made
by the trial court and determine whether error
has entered into the trial. The parties APP
peared in this court by attorney. 1t would be
impossible under the law, the court says. to
bring parties convicted of a crime from the
psnitentiary or Jail to this court to be person
ally present when the record of their trial was
reviewed and passed upon.

in the Northwest Ended.
WINNIPEG, Man, March 15.-Recently FIVE
detectives arrived here from Chicago having a
clew to the whereabouts of Tascott, the sup
posed murderer. Tascott was supposed to be
working in some Of the neighboring lumber
camps. The detectives left here suddenly, sup
posedly for British Columbia. News arrives
this evening from Lake Winnipeg stating that
Tascott has been captured, and is now the
way here in charge OF detectives. Tascott was
certainly here recently, and there is proba-
bility that the right man has been found.
A dispatch received tonight from Selkirk
saws the Indians who brought the information
from Lake Winnipeg have gone TO one of the
lodges at the reserve and cannot now be To-
Gated. Great excitement prevails among the
villagers at Seixirk, but many are inclined to
believe the report brought by the Indians.
The man who was traced TO Rat Portage by the
Chicago party, and supposed to be Iascott. is
reported TO have gone north from that place
and would undoubtedly strike Lake Winnipeg
on his journey, as the country on the east of
the lake is almost impossible.
