Gov. Foster Addresses the Indians on

ROSEBUD AGENCY, s. D., juno 4.-The
first council with the Indians was held
yesterday afternoon. All the prominent
Indians of this agency were present, as
well as delegations from all the other
Sioux agencies, including the Santo aud
Flandrau. Col. Spencer, Indian agent,
introduced the commissioners in a few
well chosen words. Gov. Foster.
chairman of the commission, then
explained in speech of considerable
length the provisions and scope of the
act Of Congress. He called attention to
the size of the present reservation as
being out of all proportion to the needs
OF the Indians, and stated that it was not
the policy of the government to allow
land to be held for such reservation
when needed for settlement; that
the strip of land 400 miles long
and 200 wide, along the Missouri River,
was 3 barrier between East and West
Dakota that could not long exist. He
said that while the government did not
propose to take their land except with
their full consent, and would pay lib
hoped to be able to convince them
that it was for the interest OF
the Indians to sell their land, and that
by 80 doing they would not only enter
upon their new departure under more
favorable conditions than any new peo-
pie ever did before, but would also
have the advantage Of white settlers in
their vicinity, whose example would
aid them in their progress for self-main-
tenance. At the lequest Of the Indians
the whole act was then read.

King Milan Dread.
From London Modern Society.

From London Modern Society
One Of the reasons which induced
King Milan to yield to the pressure
brought to bear upon him, and to re-
linquish his throne, was dread of as
sassination. The precautions which he
took seem almost incredible. There
were double doors, plated with iron, to
the room in which he slept, and pow
erful mastiff kept watch at the foot OF
his bed, while a loaded revolver lay
ready at his side. His breakfast in pri-
vate consisted principally of sufs 10
cog, and toasted bread. while his coffee
was made in his presence with spirit
lamp. Brown bread biscuits of English
manufacture and timed meats (opened
by his own hand formed his lunch, and
when dining it was always observed that
he keenly noted who was partaking of
the same dish as that to which he
helped himself, and dallied with his food
until he saw it was eaten freely by
others. In public, and when wearing
his state uniform, the King looked
much stouter than when in plebeian
costume, and this was caused by light
suit of protective mail, which ne invari-
ably donned before leaving the palace.
He was extremely particular about his
attendants, and nervously anxious to
secure their good will by lavish pres
ents. The maid of Nine. Christics was
the recipient of some munifcent gifts,
and the confidential valet who watched
over the amorous pair during their
private interviews reaped rich har-
vest as the reward of his discretion.

the destruction to property is infinitely
greater than at first reported. From
Bedford to Huntingdon, on the Roys-
town branch, and on to Lewistown, on
the Juniata river, the damage to property
will reach $50O,000, while the other
towns in the county have suffered cor
respondingly. At Mapleton the loss
will reach 100000 The Powell furnace
at Saxton sustained loss of $500, 900.
For distance of three miles below here
four miles of the Pennsylvania Railroad

A Private Orinion as to What England
VIII DO in BehrIng Sea.
A gentleman in Victoria, who is inter
ested in the seizure of Canadian vessels
in Behring Sea two years ago, writing to
a friend in Ottawa, says: "The Cana
dian sealers will go north as usual in a
few days, aud if asked to 'heave to-
will resist seizure. If overpowered
they will be retaken by British cruisers.
Canadian vessel owners entered Behring
Sea last summer and were not molested,
though frequently sighted by American
cutters. They feel confident that the
American cutters will again keep out of
their way this season. Correspondence
is still in progress between the British
and Canadian governments relative to
the erection of the proposed defenses
on the Pacific coast in British
Columbia. The forces to be stationed
at Esquimault and Vancouver will be
maintained by the Canadian govern
ment though the armament, ammunition
and submarine stores are to be supplied
by the imperial authorities. England
has also agreed to provide seventy-fve
men of the royal marine artillery, in
Guiding fifteen submarine divers. A
part of the armament has already
reached the Pacific coast"

Startling Testimony Before the CCronerAs
Jury in the Cronin Case.

Jury IN the CrOntn Case.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 6.-Ryron L..
Smith. receiver of the now defunct
Traders Bank, created a sensation at
the Cronin inquest by testifying in re-
gard to Sullivan's transactions with the
bank. The statement had been made
that when the bank collapsed it was
found that Alexander Sullivan had de-
posted there large sums OF money as
agent of the Clan-na-Gael, and had
it in private speculations on the
Board of Trade. Smith produced a
number of checks payable to Sullivan
as agent. The first was for the sum OF
$4,000, the second was for a similar
sum, the third for $500, the
fourth for $4,000, and the fifth
for 5000, making total of
$90,52O. The checks for this immense
sum of money were all indorsed in
writing by Alexander Sullivan, and bore
two stamp Endorsements showing the
money TO have been deposited to
the credit of John T. Lester, the
Board of Trade broker, through whom
Mr.. Sullivan carried on his speculations
with money intrusted to him as IAN
agent"
d. w +. MOORE, cashier Oh LcSUer w.,
brokers, testified that between June l.,
1882, and April Is, 1888, Alexander Sui
Ivan paid to the firm, on transactions
with the firm, the sum of $133 800;
that during the same period he
drew out $1l5,319 in checks. and stock
worth $4,000, showing net loss of
about $4,000. One of Lester & Com
pany's bookkeepers was put on the
stand and proceeded to read an abstract
of the transactions in stocks which Sui
ivan had with the firm during the peri
cd mentioned. The list was quite long,
and was not all read.
This makes the most import
ant link in the chain of testimony
showing the strength and justice of the
claims made by Cronin during his life
against Sullivan, and for which he had
been branded and punished as traitor
two years ago, and also the reasons for
Cronin's dread that Sullivan's malig-
nant hatred would eventually eliminate
in his untimelyFdeath.

QUICK RETk[BUTION.
a Burglar Lynched at Topeka After
Committing Murder.


A Topeka (kas.) dispatch of the 4th
saws: At 4 O'Clock this morning the
Hon. A. T. Rogers, of the firm of Rog-
ers & Stranahan, merchant tailors, was
probably fatally shot by burglar, and
Mrs. Rogers was shot so that her recov-
ery is doubtful. At the hour named
thew were awakened and discov-
cred stranger in their room,
with q revolver in his hand. Mr..
Rogers sprang upon the burglar, fol-
lowed by his wife, and desperate strug-
gle ensued. Several shots were fired
by the desperate as his wrist was held
tight bv his assailant. One of these
took effect in Mr.. Rogers left arm and
another in the center of the abdomen.
A third shot went through the left hand
of the burglar. The prisoner pleaded
piteously to be allowed to go, and was
at last permitted to escape prob
ably because his captors were
too weak to continue the struggle long
er. Shortly after the murderer was
captured by the police. People sur
rounded the Jail on all sides to guard
against any attempt to remove him.
Several secret meetings were held with
in locked doors, and it was decided that
should Mrs. Rogers die the Jail should
be stormed at o'clock P. M. The police
guarded the entrance to the Jail.
The prisoner was in the room on the
third story farthest from the main en-
trance. He was terribly frightened,
but denied his guilt and told several
conflicting stories, which were readily
found to be false. He gave his name as
Nat ELEPHANT, and his home as Pueblo,
Col. At 4:30 this afternoon the Rev. DR..
McCsbe addressed the crowd from the
Jail balcony, and advised law and order.
He was listened to attentively, put after
his speech there were, Tor the
time, cries of Throw him
out,' "Lynch him." During
the evening the crowd increased
and at o'clock the Jail was stormed.
The officers made desperate resist
ance, and it was IL o'clock when the un-
fortunate wretch was dragged out. He
showed astonishing courage, and when
asked if he had anything to say replied
that he was guilty. His last words were
"Be sure you break my neck" He was
hanged to a telegraph pole at Sixth and
Kansas Avenues.

one Of the most cele brated cases in the

vember %, 1885, John Shanplers,
a wealthy Quaker farmer living
near Media, was decoyed out Of
his house to his barn and brutally
murdered. The motive was robbery,
but the victim was heightened away
before securing his booty, and suspicion
tell upon Johnson; he was arrested, aud
an overwhelming mass ofevidence piled
up. including the confession of a COM
panion, and he was convicted and
sentenced to death. He insisted on his
innocence with so much emphasis that
eight different reprieves were granted
him. while the case was fourteen times
before the Board of Pardon. Since his
conviction fourteen people have been
arrested on suspicion of being the real
murderer, and two were actually tried
and acquitted.
