SPRINGER Is DELIGHTED.
And Does Not Believe There Will
Be Rioting in Oklahoma.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, April 21.-Hon.
William NJ. Springer, chairman of the
committee on territories of the national
house of representatives, and author of
the original Oklahoma bill, has re-
turned to his home in this city much
elated at the success of the party of
which he was the leader, in succeed
ing. after so many years, in
having the Oklahoma lands opened up
to the settler. Mr.. Springer is gratified
rather than embarrassed at the excess
of immigration into the Oklahoma coun-
try, and does not share the apprehen-
siOns so generally indulged in regard
ing probable lawlessneSs and bloodshed
over disputed lands. He thinks the eX-
cess of immigration will only demon
strate the necessity of speedy action in
the opening of the surrounding lands
for homes for settlers.
Il have been warmly urged by some
of the boomers who have been for so
many years prominent in this Oklahoma
movement" said Mr.. Springer, tonight,

the opening of the new territory and to
aid people by my suggestions in the
organization of the necessary pro-
visional government. do not believe
that my presence is necessary, however,

territory, and [ do not indulge the fears

THE CARS PULLED IN.
It Was Not Considered Best to Run
After the Riot Took Place.

After the Riot Took Place.
AS soon as the riot was over and the
prisoners had been removed to the cen
tral station, the police ordered all the
cars on all the lines and the motor run
in at once, as it was feared their might
be some further trouble in certain por-
tions of the city. The riot in South
Minneapolis appeared to have bad eff
feet on the crowds, and remarks were
heard that showed beyond doubt that
some one would be injured unless the
cars were rnn in. The police were glad
enough when all the cars ceased run
ming and the crowds along the
streets began to diminish. They had
feared the attempt to run the
cars on Sunday from the start. They
are inclined to think that the trouble
would not have been so great had not
the company attempted to run the
Riverside avenue cars with the alleged
cowboys as drivers and conductors.
The appearance of these men on the
cars, even though they had discarded
them big hats, was what set the mob
going. The revolvers taken from them
by the police are of the largest make,
and. in the hands of desperate men.
would do terrible execution. The feel
ing that the men are not cowboys at
all, but simply toughs and men who
have been picked up in different places
is gaining ground all the time. The
police declare that such is the fact.

Vulnerable cases of pocket-picking have
occurred during the past week, both in
the depot and on the trains. To-day it
was ascertained that three or four
sharpers have been working very
smooth game. They would board an
Oklahoma train, gain the confidence of a
carload of boomers and finally suggest
the organization ola colony. The sharp
'ers would produce their pocketboOks
and suggest common fund, and the
actual settlers would follow suit. The
common fund idea invariably failed of
consummation. however, but the pick
pockets improved the opportunity by
noting the size of each mans purse and
its place of concealment. The sharpers
would ride out a hundred miles or
more, and by that time would have sue
ceeded in reaping their harvest. No ar
rests have been made vet.

Making It Impossible to Run
Cars on One Or Two Lines
To-Day.
An Unknown Man Shot Dur
ing the Trouble on the
Tracks Last Night.
fwenty-0ne Locked Up in the
Police Station Charged
With Rioting.

The developments of the street car
strike at Minneapolis yesterday were of
all alarming character. The spirit of
mischief was ripe for trouble, and Sun
day, when labOring men were idle and
thrOnged the streets, presented the op-
portunity. There was riot about noon
in South Minneapolis, and tracks
were torn up at night. The situa-
tiOn seems to be more serious
than at any time since the strike
began. The action of the sympathizerS
Of the strikers was prompted in a degree
by the demand of the city council upon
the company that street cars must be
running upon all lines by noon to-day,
and the outbreak was Intended to pre-
vent the company from fulfilling the re-
quirement.

BUCKBEE is NO MORE.
A Wisconsin Lumber Town En-
tirely Wiped Out.

NEENAH, Wis, April 21.-The woods
near Marion, station on the Milwau-
kee, Lake Shore & Western road,
forty miles west of Appleton, caught
fire last night and spread with great
rapidity. The small town of Buckbee
was entirely wiped out. Buckbee is a
small numbering town and a great
deal of lumber was stored there,
which was entirely consumed. A train
of cars, consisting of fourteen cars of
lumber and five cars of logs, caught fire
near Marion and burned. Loss about
SIS, 900. The full loss ON the lumber
and dwellings at Buckbee and near
Marion will amount to nearly $500, 900.
There has been but little rain in that
section this season, and it is presumed
that the fire originated from spark of
a passing locomotive.

THREE BURNED IN A HOTEL,
Awful Result of Confiagration
in Detroit

DETROIT, April 21.-A fire at Dehn's
hotel, cheap lodging house, Nos. 4S

afternoon, caused the death of three
men and serious ininry to fourth.

the bar room, and in an almost incredi-
bic space of time the entire building
was full of smoke. E. j. Gibson, bar
tender, and f. L. Bolio were asleep on
the third floor and both were sutfocated.
William Whitaker, a sailor, was seen
at his window on the fourth floor, but
before the firemen could reach him he
fell back and was smothered. Powell
was badly burned, but will probably re-
cover. The fire was confined to the
first floor and the loss will not exceed

MINOR MENTION.
Interesting Notes Pertaining to
the Strike Briefly Chronicled.

Among the officers who were struck
by flying rocks yesterday were Patrol
men Martinson. Volk. Grattan, Griffin,
Sergeant Helm and Mounted Officers
Blake and Meaby.
The SWitchmen's Mutual Aid associa-
ton has passed resolutions rendering
the strikers financial aid and sympathy.
The women of North Minneapolis
have decided to boycott the street cars
until union men run them.
Jailor Needham and Lieut.. Day are
going to mount one of the guns taken

as Gatling gun.
Mounted Officer Blake's valuable
horse was Iamed during the row by be-
ing cut in one leg by broken bottle.
1t would seem that the ''bold, bad men
from Bitter Creek" who wear their hair
long and drink poor whisky, are not
such dangerous men in "scrap' after
all.
Since the strike began there have
been less than dozen drunken men ar
rested.

ALMOST STARVED.
A Shipwreeked Grew Rescued
After Fourteen Months.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 2l.-The Brit
ish bark Wandering Minstrel, which
sailed from Honolulu Dec. 10, 1887, has
been heard from. She was wrecked at
the Midway Island Jan. 9, 1883, and the
crew found on the island by man
named Jorgensen, who had belonged
to the schooner Gen. Siegel, which
had been wrecked there some time be-
fore. He had been left on the island by his
shipmates because they suspected him
of foul play in connection with the
death of two of the Siegel's crew. On
Oct. Is, Mate John Cameron, Chinese
boy and Jorgenson left in an open boat
for Honolulu. A seaman died on the
island, and one during the passage to
Honolulu. March II, 1889. the schooner
Norma arrived at Midway island and
took the rest of the crew to Honolulu.
During the fourteen months sojourn on
the island the castaways subsisted on
seabirds and fish, and they were almost
starved when taken off.
