pRoFITING BY ANARCHY.

1t has been limited more than once
that the Chicago police were ina meas
ure responsible for the Haymarket riot,
and the developments of quarrel now
going on between Inspector EBERsoI.D
and Capt. SCHAAK, late of the police
force, give good deal of c0loring to
these rumors. Capt. SCHAAK has re-
Gently written book, in which he deals
with his experience as a Chicago police
officer, and recOunts in detail the growth
of anarchy in that city, which culmi-
mated in the Haymarket riot and the
hanging of the anarchist leaders. He
says it was due to EBERSOLD'S stupidity
that SCHNAUBELT, the real bomb
thrOwer, was released without eXami-
nation after he had been arrested on the
morning following the HaymarHet riot.
He alleges that when he (ScHAAk) sent
ont a force of detectives to hunt up
SCHNAUBELT, and to ore-arresthim, they
were not allowed to do so by EBER-
SOLIDS detectives, who told them
that SCHNAUBELT was not wanted.
SCHAAK also charges EBERsOLD with
jealousy of the praise that he
(SCHAAK) received for working up the
anarchist case, and declares that the
whereabouts of PARSONS was known
to EBERsoLD for weeks before he re-
turned to the city and gave himself up.
Inspector EBERSoLD pronounces
SCHAAK's statements to be false and
malicious, and then proceeds to show
him IN He saws that if was SCuAAI[sS
policy by continued ''nagging" to in
cite the irresponsible elements to deeds
of violence, in order that he might have
an opportunity to display his qualities
as police officer and detective. He ac-
cuseS SCHAAk of working for fame and
money, and that he was constantly ex-
aggerating the dangers of anarchism in
order to excite the fears of the capital
lists. He says that after the hanging of
the anarchists and all real danger was
passed SCHAAK came to him and wanted
him as superintendent of police to give
the ''groups" on the North side permis-
sion to organize again, so that he
(ScHAAK) might distinguish himself in
detective work.
These statements throw interesting
light on the methods pursued by the
Chicago police during the reign Of terror
i'll stirring up the anarchists, and 90 a
long ways toward confirming the opin-
ion previously formed that the police
were doing good deal of work for po.
litical effect and with the hope of per-
SOnal glory.

INDIANS AS HITCHING-POSTS.
An Extraordinary Scheme Which

An Extraordinary Scheme Which
Led to Murder in Lower Cali,

Philadelphia Times.
A dispatch from Mono county. Call
of settler and four Italians by band
of Piute Indians. The reasons for the
outbreak seem fully warranted on the
part of the Indians. The Mono Lake
region is a desolate, sterile section,
much resembling the country around
the Dead sea. The waters of the lake
are thoroughly impregnated with bOrax,
salt, and magheSia, and the only animal
life found in it is sort of worm, about
One-fourth OF an inch in length, re-
sembling in appearance a shrimp.
On the western shore of Mono lake
lived settler named Louis Samman, a
Sclavonian by birth. He had resided
there for over twenty. years, raising
cattle on the stunted pasturage around
the lake, leading lonely life.
Occasionally he would kill a Piute
and cast the body into the alkaline
waters of the lake, where it would soon
petrify. This fact was well known to
the whites residing in that section, and
the gentleman who gives this infOrma-
ton says that he has seen four of these
bodies calmly reposing at the bottom OF
the lake. Samman'S avOwed intention
was to use the bodies. as soon as they
became sufficiently hardened, for hitch
ing-posts and doorsteps.
1t happened that body OF Piutes
strayed near the cabin of Samman, and
in the clear waters of the lake near by
they saw the bodies of their murdered
brethren lying in the water undergoing
the process of petrifcation. They be-
came frenzied for revenge, and going to
Samman's cabin took him out Che
was aIone) and shot him through the
heart, They then went several miles
to place where four Italians were and
killed three of them. one escaping
to BOdie and alarming the citizens, tell
ing them at the same time not to go out
there for few days, as the Indians had
sworn to kill any white man that came
out. The county officials have started
to capture the Indians.

Why the Northern Pacific Is Get
ting Out of the Transconti-
mental.
CHICAGO, May 14.-It came to light
to-day that the Northern Pacific COM
pany has given notice of its intention
to withdraw from the Transcontinental
association. The cause of this action is
the trouble that has recently broken
out between that road and the Union
Pacific, on account of the latter's de-
termination to do business in Puget
Sound territory in violation of Its agree
ments. The Union Pacific's action was
contrary to the rules of the association,
and Chairman Leeds so decided, but
that company insisted on its course, and
now the Northern Pacific proposes to
cut loose from the organization and get
rid of all restraints in order to make
war on its rival. Report says that it
was this quarrel that decided Chairman
Leeds to resign and accept the position
of freight traffic manager of the Mis-
souri, Pacific.

SPOKANE AND PROCTOR KNOTT.
He can stand in st. Paul or Minneap-
oils and hear, as he did yesterday, the
bulletin from the track and feel the sus-
pense upon which life seems to hang:
''They're at the postp'
There is general awakening and a
rush for the telegraph instrument,
where the news is clicking OFT it's unin-
telIigible bulletins.
Proctor Knott's kicking the posts
down!"
Then comes buzz Of comment and a
voice is heard to calculate in disgust:
''Naw, that Ritchie can't back Proc
tor"
But the hush comes quickly. as angry
looks are directed toward the inter-
ruptor. Then the announcement
''They're off! Come-to-Taw in the
leadv'
Another buzz, in the midst Of which
somebody nrutters that it is stable
job, and the pert Proctor wants his
mate to win.
'.Come-to-Taw leads at the stand,
Proctor Knott, second Spokane, third"
A mental picture is presented to
every eager listener. He can see the
four great racers sweep away from the
stand, and he knows how the next an
nouncement will be, for there is long
drawn '.Ah," when it comes.
Proctor Knott leads at the quarter !!
Spokane second! Come-to- Taw third"
1t is getting down to business now.
Everybody knows the great Kentucky
thoroughbred is at his old trick of set
ting the pace and winding the field; but
there are mutterings that it was los
ing game at the Derby and not safe
now. But few were prepared for the
next
Proctor Knott leads at the half!
hind! Come-to-Taw third and two
lengths behind Spokane!''
The pace must be terrific and the
question is, Can it last? Some one won
ders where Once Again is, and a man
cIutching a handful of Knott tickets
knows the heavy track hero twill have
to be led in." Then the bulletin :
Proctor Knott leads at the three
quarters"-a pause-.sby length! Spo
kane second! Come-to-Taw third"
The excitement on the course is
scarcely greater, and breath is bated.
Everybody is calculating the chances,
and when the announcement comes that
the Kentucky favorite has a lead of
barely a half-length, as the stretch is
entered, there is a wild cheer for
Spokane, and the Proctor men grow very
anxious. ''Same old thing" mutters
one; but the crowd cries s'Shw and
silence falls until the final call is made:
Spokane winsp'
Then the wild uproar, the cheering
and the shouting all break loose to-
gether, and the Knott men thoughtfully
withdraw and indulge in introspection.

There are thousand men in st. Paul,
more or less. who are vaguely wonder
ing, as they read the GLOBE this morn
ing, if the great governor of Kentucky
is proud of his equine namesake. Up
in Duluth they don't back Proctor
Knott to any extent. Come-to-Taw is
more in their line; while to the west
ward the Montana horse with the West
ern name is the big favorite.
He has not enjoyed life, with its vic
tories and reverses, who has not felt
the excitement of a track contest, even
at the long range of thousand miles,
distance. He can see the course,
thronged by thousands; the eager
crowds of the stands, the excited thbu-
sands about the betting centers; the
dense lines about the fences; and Gan
hear the wild and enthusiastic cheers
as a favorite speeds under the wire,
just long nose in the lead of a forini-,
dable rival. He can hear the ring of the
flying hoofs and the swish of the cat
gut as it is piled across the steaming
flankS of laggard. 4

YESTERDAYS ELECTIONS.

Outside of the towns there was light
vote polled in the two Dakotas yester-
day. The farmers were busy with their
crops, and the knowledge that there
were good candidates all around in the
field made them feel easy as to the re-
suit. There seemed to be a lack of
party spirit. except the feeling on the
temperance question. and in many in
stances the voters who went to the polls
paid but little regard to party lines.
The principal aim seemed to be to get
the best men into the constitutional
conventions. A good beginning has
been made in the work of statehood,
and. we hope to see it continued until
the work is finished.

New York World.
The prettiest and newest bracelet is q
little thin thread of gold just large
enough to fit the arm little less than
half way up to the elbow, and hung to
this the tiny miniature of the giver
surrounded with brilliants. Miniatures
have come back again into greater fa-
vor than ever, probably because of the
interest awakened by the centennial
ball and the study of ancestors, which
has brought the old miniatures into
notice. There has been a sudden de-
mand for miniatures from the bric-a-
brac shops. who find they can dispose
OF the smaller ones with great ease,
these being used as brooches, ancient
shoe and knee buckles being broken up
to furnish briiIiants of the true old
French paste, in rim of which they
must be set. All who possess such
things by inheritance are having them
reburnished, and wearing them with
paint upon ivory have their hands full
with the sudden demand for portraits
of young lovers, which are being ex.
changed-herS to be worn in his vest
pocket, fastened to one end of his
watch chain. and his to be suspended
from delicate thread like a chain OF
gold hung around her neck underneath
her frOck. The chain is long one be,
cause she does not remove it when
changing to evening dress, and yet
would be 10th to expose to the public
the face of her fiance worn in such
manner. The miniature is tucked into
her bodice, and the chain hangs
loosely about her shoulders, concealins
itself amid the laces of her tucker.
Sometimes they are not worn at all,
being too large for convenience, and
then they are placed in a frame instead,
cit her in silver or in jeweled frame OF
enambled flowers, which is placed upon
own ner. The favorite form of these
jeweled frames is wreath of foYget-me-
nots in blue enamel, and one very
pretty one inclOsing the lovely face OF
the donor was made of little gold heart
links, and rests On the dressing table of
the fortunate man who, as soon as Lent
is over, will enter into possession of the
original. These pictures are so much
more pleasing and less perishable
than photographs, that they are
destined to supersede the latter, at
least between lovers They can be
quite as accurate, too, because many of
the miniature painters first photograph
the face upon the ivory. transferring il
from some satisfactory picture of the
person to be painted, and then the
work is done upon this. The prices
range all the way from S25, paid for
miniatures of this sort, which are in re-
ality scarcely more than carefully tinted
photographs on ivory, to $50, paid ia
artists of repute, who spend as much
labor upon such a thing as they would
in the painting of large portrait.
