BUILT IN A DAY.
Capture and Construction of Ok
lahoma City.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April PA
special from Oklahoma City to the
journal says: Oklahoma City, like
Guthrie, was built in a day, or, properly
speaking, was claimed in an hour, eX-
cepting that portion which was captured
before time by those appointed to 60

United States marshals laid out the
town Sunday night, and Monday morning
they covered the supposed choice sites
with tents. When the train from the
south arrived about l O'Clock, consist
ing of twenty-three cars containing
about two thousand people, about seven
hundred had been at work. The later
comerS were simply struck with amaze
ment. They did not repeat the wild
rush at Guthrie, as they were too much
astounded to run. They mechanically
walked over to the town site, took what
the government officials had kindly left.
not wanting, and went on out two miles
stalking town lots. Water at Oklahoma
is plenty. There is not the same suffer-
ing as at Guthrie, and, in fact, there is
lack of dirt and dust. AS at Guthrie,
the days are hot, the nights cold and
food hard to obtain. The newcomers
at Guthrie are peaceably inclined, but
they may yet show their indignation
over the action of the government
officials. There is now
AN ORGANIZED CROWD
which tomorrow will put a squatter
upon the lot OF every man who ante
dates II o'clock noon on the 22d. They
have been at work securing the names
of these people and have now the exact
locations. In the forenoon 100 lots, all
choice ones, will be jumped at one
time, while the jumpers will be backed
by 200 armed men. If peaceable pos
session is given, being overpowered by
numbers, there will be no trouble.
Should resistance be made, then force
will be used to eject from the property
those men, and their property will be
thrown from their lots, even though in
doing this it is cast upon some other
PERSONS lot. Be it understood that
Guthrie is a city of 6,OOO people, with no
streets. The outlying claimants have
been crossing near the center of the
town and have been stalking out and
improving their claims in the so-calIed
streets and alleys. The result of all
this is that the spectators

tarium, occupied the witness stand

Northwest Rebellion.
Special to the Glob,

Special to the Globe
WINNIPEG, April PA narrative of
the Northwest rebellion of 1885, pre-
pared from memoranda taken at the
time by Michel Dumas, is published to-
day. Dumas criticises the conduct of
the Canadian government and forces
very severely, and denies that assist
ance of any kind was received from
across the border. At the Fish Creek
engagement the rebel forces numbered
only forty-seven, and at Batoche
scarcely 500. Their loss at Fish Creek
was FIVE killed and three wounded, and
at Batoche eleven killed and eight
wounded. Dumas says that when Ba-
toche was taken there was not a SOli-
tary man there, and there is not in his
tory such lie. as the statement that
Batoche was taken at the point of the
bayOnet.

PLUG TOBACCO TRUST.
There's Talk of One, But Liggett &
Myers Say No.

ST. LOUIS, April 24.-Close on the
heels of the closing of the big gas deal
come rumors of the formation of great
plug tobacco trust, to embrace all the
leading manufacturers of the country.
Color is given to these rumors by the
fact that Pierre Lorillard Jr., Of New
York, who is said to be the leader of the
scheme, has been IN this city twice
within month, but there is no evil
dence to show that he was here in the
interest of the trust. Liggett & Myers,
of this city, who are the largest plug
tobacco manufacturers in America and
whose names have been coupled with
the scheme, say that they know nothing
about it and do not believe that any
steps have been taken looking to the
formation of trust. They also en-
phatically declare that they would not
enter trust under any circumstances,
and express the belief that tobacco
trust not including their firm would
result as the sugar trust did without
having Claus Spreckels in the deal.
