Miller in his opinion deciding that the United
States had no jurisdiction in the matter Of
the funds of the Greek nation, after an elab-

of their title to certain lands. OF this sum,

Finance and His Bride.
OTTAWA, Ont, Sept. 21.-[Special Tele-
gram TO THE BEE. Minister of Finance
Foster, with his bride, nee Mrs. Chisholm,
the Chicago divorced lady the validity of
whose marriage with Foster has been ques-
toned, has returned to Ottawa after honey
moon OF several weeks. Notwithstand-
ing the fact that the matter Is sure to
be brought up in parliament, the couple ap-
pear to enjoy the world as if no cloud hung
over them. 1t is stated that Foster, before
he makes his annual budget speech in par
lament, will introduce bill making, as a
special favor, his marriage with Mrs. CHS
holm legal AS to the validity Of the mar
riage there is a diversity of opinion. Hector
Cameron, queens counsel, and one of the
most prominent members Of the legal profess
sion in Canada, states that it is
illegal, and that serious complications
might arise should any one take the matter
up against Foster. So far Mr.. and Mrs.
Foster have not been ostracsied from Can
ada as had been predicted but on the con-
trary during his visit to ST. Andrews, N. b.,
they were guests of Governor Sir Leonard
Tiley. Their future social status, however,
will depend upon what action Lord Stanley
as gvernor general takes when the festivi-
ties at the government house open here in
December. Should it ultimately be decided
that the marriage is illegal Mr.. ID. B. CHS
holm, the first husband of Mrs. Foster will
have a good chance to return from his exile
in the United States and bleed the minister
of France of considerable portion of his
surplus accumulations.

BAYoNETs AND BALLOTS.
Soldiers Chase Oklahoma Voters
From Poll to Poll.


KANSAS CITY, Sept. 2l.-A special from
Oklahoma City, l. r., says; To day was one
of the most exciting days in the history Of
the city.
About six weeks ago q faction OF citizens
after failing to induce the council to call q
convention for the purpose of framing an
amended charter, framed one themselves
and called an election for the people
to vote on 1t. AS it provided
for the immediate oustiug of the
present city government the United
States troops, under the authority of
General Merritt, prevented the election.
Two or three weeks ago the charter pre-.
pared by the committee and authorized by
the council was voted down. The original
charter faction then called an election on
their charter for to-day again without the
consent of the mayor and council. General
Merritt again sent orders to Colonel
Snyder to prevent the election, and
this morning Captain Stiles, in command of
the troops here, carried out the command at
the point of the bayonet. The polls were
opened early in the morning and large
crowd assembled.
A number of persons eudeavored to vote,
when Captain Stiles threw his company
charge. The company encountered no oppo-
sition to their progress. The leadess Of the
charter faction then rushed to another place
and declared the polls open again. Captain
Stiles repeated the charge aud again cleared
the street.
r. Glasgow then called the crowd around
him and advised them to dispense. Continu-
ing, he censured the interference by the
military, when Captain STILES charged the
crowd for the third time and brought the
speech to an abrupt termination.
The Second ward polls were then declared
open in another part of the city. Captain
Stiles proceeded to the new voting places.
The leaders of the charter faction,
after consulting with Captain Stiles, ad-
vised the crowd to dispense. The advice
was followed and the excitement subsided.
Nine of the leaders were afterwards ar
rested on charge of conspiring against the
authority of the United States and city gov
ernment

THE QUEBEC DISASTER.
One OF the Victims Discovered Alive
But Insane.

One OF the Victims Discovered Alive
But Insane.
QUEBEC, Sept. 2l.--Althongh rain fell in,
cessantly last night, tho digging out of tho
victims of the landslide was carried on
throughout the entire night. The efforts Of
the workers were concentrated on spot
where a man named Kemp was supposed to
be. At 4 o'clock this morning
the work was far enough advanced
to allow him to be seen at a distance
OF about fifteen feet from the base OF opera
tons. The poor man is either insane or
delirJous, as ne shouts and sings the greater
part of the time mau named Beaucamp,
who was trying TO rescue him, narrowly es-
capped being crushed to death. John
Nolan, who was thought to have been killed,
was found still alive, although he has been
imprisoned under the mass Of ruins twenty
feet deep for thirty-six hours.
This afternoon the body of Mrs. Kemp was
found under mass of stones, beams and
rafters. Her head only was clear In order
to release her body the men attempted to
move stone weighing some 500 pounds, but
il crashed down upon the woman's head,
smashing it to jelly. The body was recov-
cred later but leg was torn Off in pulling il
out of the wreck.
Inc corpse OF Margaret welsh was
reached under pile of masonry. Her head
was almost severed from the body, which
was horribly mutlated. These are the only
additional corpses found after twenty four
hours work. The quantity of rocks. lumber
and masonry is so great that three
or four hours hard work does not
show any difference in the debrls,
1t Is thought that sixteen persons are still
missing and that they were in the Easements
of the buildings at the time of the land slide.
The debris must be cleared level In order to
get at them, and this will occupy several
days.
The guard room of the river police station
has been transformed into a mortuary chapel
and twenty corpses recovered have been laid
in row in front of an altar on which ii num-
Der of tapers and lamps are burning Aroma
tic essences are also burned to counteract the
stencil arising from the decomposng bodies.
The building is open to the public and people
flock there en- masse. The funerals will take
place to morrow.
AT a meeting OF the city council last night
$4,000 was voted to aid the surviving victims
of the calamity The city will also bear tho
expense of the funerals of those killed
Timothy Reagan, who was wounded in the
land slide, died this morning.
