KING MCPHERSON
A Suit of Clothes, an American Flag and
a Cheek of Brass,


CHICAGO, April 19th-A Daau Ne,cs
Washington special has very pretty little
story which promises to develop into an
interesting trial. IL comes to Washington
from Alaska. 1t is to the effect that about
three years ago man named Mcpherson
sailed from San Francisco and eventual
~ landed on one of the Aleutian
Islands off the coast of Alaska Mr..
McPherson's entire outfit consisted of a
suit OF clothes, an American flag and cheek
enough Tor regiment, together with a
paper purporting to have been signed by
Attorney General Garland, appointing him
United States Commissioner. As soon as
he landed on the island he raised the
American flag with great deal of cere.
mony, took command of 600 natives and
compelled them to address him as King
Mcpherson. Each season he exacted a
heavy tribute from the natives, and alto
gether he seems to have been having a
lovely time.
Things went along very smoothly until a
few months ago, when report saws he had
some difficulty with three of his subjects.
and, fearing there might be mutinv. he
hanged three of the rebellious ones. The
report of Mcpherson rule reached the
Treasury Department and special agent
was sent to his island to investigate the
matter. This agent recently reported the
facts to Secretary Window substantially as
they are given above. Now it is said the
revenue cutter will be sent to the island for
the purpose of arresting Mcpherson. Ii is
the intention OF the authorities to bring
him to San Francisco and try him for
murder.

Did Not want His No,. puu.d

WASHINGTON, April 1Sth.-In the Armes
Court-martial case to-day, Governor Beaver
testified that personally he had nothing to
do with Armes' removal from the parade on
Inauguration Day. Some one had sug-
gested that General Armes be appointed on
the staff, and not remembering at the time
in the hurry that General Armes was dead.
he (Beaver) had said appoint him. When
the mistake was discovered he had told
Armes how it occurred and dropped his
name from the list. In q letter from
Armes to witness, dated April I'd, Armes
requested the Governor to stop the Court
martial proceedings, as they would result in
his dismissal and he preferred death to the
loss OF his commission. He added that the
Governor stood in danger of becoming his
murderer. In another letter, dated dav
before yesterday, be apologized for the
Riggs House episode. The witness told of
this episode, saying that he had laughingly
replied to Armes hat be could not apolo-
gize for his removal. and that be had then
felt Arnies hand brush his face in rude
way. He had in moment struck with his
crntch at Armes. Armes action was some
thing in the nature both of assault and an
insult. Witness took it to be an attempt
