SETTLERS TO FIGHT.
Some Trouble in the Future for the
 City of St. Paul.
WHO OWNS THE LAND?
Poles and Bohemians Occupy Lands Reclaimed From the River, and If Dispossessed.

ST. PAUL, May 1.-Sheriff Bean does
 not like the publicity that has been given the report that tho 2,0O0 or moro Poles and Bohemians residing on the Flats shall be evicted. Yesterday he collared Mortz Helm, who represents the syndi- cate which proposes to gain possession in those quarters, and warned him not to give out any more reports of what he in- tended to do until he had secured writs
 of eviction and filed them with the
 shcriff Tho sheriff declares that if the
 writs are given him for execution, he will
 complete his work in one day. As yet
 no writs have been issued.
 The Polanders and Bohemians whom
 the syndicate proposes to ovict inhabit a
 tract of about 200 acres. An effort was
 made last fall to drive out some of these
 people, but public sentiment was against
 it and the effort was failure. These
 people have resided in that vicinity for
 nearly nineteen years and they are loath
 to surrender their claims.
 John Fiten, who has lived on the Flats seventeen years, pictured the situation
 as follows, If they are going to put us
 out of our homes they have got to show us their authority. This strip of land
 has all been reclaimed from the river and belongs to the government. They have got this land platted and put on the city maps now, but no man can show mo the patent from tho government or an abstract of title. This land is worth something now, and these rich men see q chance to get hold of it. We don't say We own the land but think 1t belongs to the government, and if it does they have no right to drive us off. If we are forced off we will take our families to the city hall and demand that tho city take care of us. I'm not so sure either that we will givc up our homes without making . hard fight. ~~ Andrew Haban, a saloon keeper on the Flats, said: No sheriff or anybody else will ever put me out of here My saloon stands in the street, and until tho street Is opened and the city authorities move me off propose to stay here. They mado n bluff to put mo off before and l said l would kill the first man that attempted to do it"
 Grave trouble Is anticipated if the at- tempt to drive the people of is made now as the feeling Is very bitter.

 waiting for something to turn up.
 Politically there are of course the usual
 number of squabbles in country districts
 and the always disturbed eesspool of
 chickering's over the Irish question remain
 with us ever. But little there is that Is new and very little matter of real i'm portance. The election of a parliament ary representative of the central division of Birmingham, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of the late John his eldest son, unionist in politics, was returned at the poll by $, ,621 votes, against w. Phipson Beale, O. C., the Gladstonian
 candidate, who boiled 2,561, the majority being 3.O6O. This MT. Bright, cotton manufacturer, of Rose Dell. Roohdale. Lancashire, is the eldest son of the late John Bright by his second
 wife. Miss Margaret Elizabeth Lea tham. daughter of the late William Leatham of Wakefield. Yorkshire. He was born In 1S4S, and was educated pri- vately, with view to engaging in com merce and manufactures. He Is married and has one or two children. He now enters parliament for the first time, and is the seventy-second new member who will have taken his seat In the house since the last general election.

Beyond this, few themes are discussed | among political folks. indeed. except it be the death of Count Dmitri Tolstoi, for whom English statesmen have been l taught profound respect. Not. forsooth,
 because 1t was granted willingly, but be- l cause it has been compelled by sheer force of genius and character In the man himself. Of all diplomats with whom we have been brought in contact, Count Tolstoi has a most peculiar place. Like Bismarck, we regarded him as one of the potentialities of tho world
 This Is peculiar to monarchies some | may say-a lowing down to the strong | figures around us. We recognize, of course that as censor of the press Tol- stoi was the terror of Russian editors. Under him there could not be the faintest 1 approach to independent comment upon ! the affairs of tho nation. It Is said that
 on one occasion he suppressed four news papers while eating his breakfast. His power increased still more when he be- l came minister of the interior as he prac- | tically had the whole police under his l control. He became intensely hated by | tho liberal element in Russia, as he used all his power to conserve tho time-hon-

MARQUIS DE LEvUILLES SAMOAN MEDAL. many friends. probably no public man in Russia had more enemies; and yet he never took any precautions against assassination. large part of tho com mon people loved him next to the czar. He was a very approacable man, and at stated times the hupblest subject of the czar could appeal to him and was sure of 0 hearing.
 Well; we English love power s and respect # Is part of education itself to respect old and honored families, and the Tolstois have been a noted family In Russia since the middle of the seventeenth century. Count Dmitri Tolstoi was doubtless more talked about in Russia than his relation, Count Leo Tolstoi, the novelist and phil osopher, who was far better known In other lands than the statesman. Still, as have said, most of all the Englishman respects the man who has thrashed him, and in diplomatic battles with Russia, more than one English statesman has suffered defeat through the quiet diplo- macy of Count Dmitri Tolstol.
 Americans, New York people especially will remember the Marquis de Leuville, who was spoken of at one time as an ad- mirer of one of your rcountrywomen.w whose name Is conspicuous frequently in the pub- lie prints. The marquis Is now in England and announcing himself as an admirer of the British seamanship as represented in the Samoa catastrophe he has had Q gold medal made for Captain Kane, of H. M. $.

It will be recalled that the United States corvette, the Trenton, under command of Lieutenant Brown, broke loose from her anchorage, and was driven upon tho sunken wreck of the Vandalia. Then she drifted on to the shore, with her bottom completely stove in and with. her hold half full of water. Fortunately, although the ship was totally lost, all on board of her was saved An incident of peculiar interest to our own countrymen was the escape of tho H. NJ. s.

TUNIS LABEE TO DIE.
The Paterson Wife.Murderer is Found
 Guilty of the Crime.
THE JURY OUT AN HOUR
The Prisoner Manifested No Emotion When the Verdict Was Told to Him. Thirty-eight Years since . Hanging Was Had in the Same Place.

PATTERSON, May 16.-The jury in the case of Tunis Labee, who stabbed his wife to death in February last, brought in q yer dict of murder in the first degree yester- day afternoon at 355.
 Erhe evidence was concluded on Tues day, and yesterday was set apart for the summing up of the counsel.
 On the assembling of the court there was the usual large crowd present, a good portion of which was made up of women, who sat throughout the day curious listeners to the proceedings.
 In beginning the proceedings MT. z. NJ. Ward, counsel for Labee, requested Prosecutor Gourley to outline his reasons for asking Labee's conviction. Tho prosecutor, In q short address, informed the jury that he would expect verdict of murder in the first degree. The state would claim that Labee was of a quarrelsome disposition, and that he was too lazy to work for living, but let his wife do so, and that he deliberately planned the murder of his wife.
 Tho facts of the murder had been proven by the state. He had stabbed his wife twenty-three times in various places. He could not have been sane before the crime, insane when the crime was committed, and then afterward re- covered his sanity. There was nothing known to the law as emotional Insanity.
 The counsel for the defense then began to sum up and pictured the happy life that Labee had led with his first wife until he became enamored of the woman he had killed. He loved her with all his affections and was willing to do anythin g for her. Counsel claimed that no man could commit such q crime while sane. Why had he not killed her with one stab, If he had been sane, instead of intlicting so many wounds upon her, as described2
 Judge Dixon then charged the jury. He exploded the self-defense plea, and then proceeded to set forth what constt- tuted the difference between murder il, the first and second degrees.
 The jury retired and deliberated lit- time verdict of murder in the first de- gree was given. ssE2Ea
 Labee in the meantime had been brought in front of the jail. As he speaks no English he did not understand the verdict and was not moved by it.. He is native of Holland and seems to be worry ignorant.
 MT. Henry Bewks, a Dutch lawyer, who assisted in the defense, translated into Dutch the verdict to Labee. AS the murderer listened to 1t he exhibited no feeling whatever. He was handcuffed and taken back to Jail. It is expected that sentence will be pronounced ill few days, perhaps tomorrow.
 It is now thirty-eight years since therc r was a hanging in Passaic county. No eX- captions were taken to either the rulings or charge of the judge, so that there does not seem to be anything left on which an appeal of the case might be based.

1s0, GOO MEN Now ON STRIKE
Subscription Lists Open ed in tho News

BERLIN. May 16.-Distress Is begin. ming to be felt in the coal districts in con. sequence of the strike of the miners. A committee has appealed for funds and a number of Westphalia newspapers have opened subscription lists. The number of strikers Is estimated at 160, ,00O. Hun. dreds of miners have resumed work un- der the protection of troops and many other strikers are wavering. The employ. CTS in the Witten district have offered to increase wages without altering the hours of labor, and the offer may possibly be accepted.
 The strikers committee has Issued pla- cards urging the strikers to maintain peace. Placards have been posted in many places warning peaceful citizens to remain indoors after sunset. A number of placards have also been posted urging the strikers to commit violence. These latter are attributed by some to the mas ters, by others to the Socialists, and by still others to women who are opposed to the strike.
