The Canadian SeaIers Go Out Armed.
and the Government VIII Protect
Them Against American

| TORONTO, April 20.-A special from OF,
tawa to the Empire, the government
organ, says: Colonel Prior, some day
next week, will initiate discussion in
the house in reference to the Behring
seizures. The people of British Column
bia are anxious TO secure a termination
OF the unpleasantness which has existed
for the last three years, and until the
question OF jurisdiction in Behring Sea is
determined. some irritation is likely to
exist. It is understood that negotiations
are still in progress on the subject and
it is the general belief there will be an
international conference to deliberate the
question whether or not Behring sea is a
a mere clausum. The claim OF the
United States to exclusive jurisdiction in
these waters is preposterous one. All
the great maritime powers, France,
Germany and Italy are almost as much
interested i'll the question as Great
Britain and Canada, and the support of
the governments of those countries is
confidently relied upon to sustain the
contention of the Canadian government.
At the present juncture the Premier will
doubtless not feel justified in speaking as
openly on the question as he or the peo-
pie of British Columbia would like, but
doubtless he will be able to give such
assurances as viii satisfy the country. |
The government has not been neglectful |
of its duty or of Canada's interests. 4 |
special from Victoria on the subject |,
says: The seal fisheries are going out
armed and prepared to resist seizure by |
the American cutters, the globe Com
menting en- the possibility Of conflict |
says in order TO obviate this danger the |
British government should order a man
of-war to protect the Canadians in the |
Behring sea, or should plainly abandon
the present shallow pretenses. Great |
Britain will stand by Canadian rights
against any American aggression What

Only the Beginning.

CHICAGO, April 1S.-The Times Fort
Smith, Ark, special says: Four men were
killed on the border of Oklahoma to-day.
Word was received here of a conhi!
between party OF boomers, cattlemen n
aud the ChickaSaw policemen, at the ford
on Chisholm's Trail, forty miles west of
Oklahoma City, on the Canadian river.
The cattlemen were taking several buG-
dred animals from Frank Colberts ranch,
in Chickasaw, toKansas, but the mounted
police guarding the northern border of
Oklahoma, refused to permit item to use
the celebrated Chisholm trail, leading
through the new territory,a fight resulted
in which the cattlemeB, were reinforced
bya party of boomers from Cock & Fan
min company. One guard, two cattlemen
aud one boomer named Gross were killed
in the MELEE, beside the loss of some val
liable horses. The cattiomen took the
old Abilene trail and went around by the
,heyenne reservation.

An OUTLAW Capsared.

MONTREAL, April 22.-Donald Morri-
son, the noted Megantic outlaw who has
defied arrest for nearly year, was cap
tured this morning after desperate re-
sistance.
Morrison lived in Scotch settlement
at Megantic, near Sherbrooke, in the
province of Quebec. Last summer he
had dispute with neighbor farmer,
and it resulted in his killing the man.
| Attempts were at once made to arrest
Morrison, but so numerous were his
friends that ne was looked upon as q
modern Rob Roy. At different times
deputations of Constables went from
Montreal to arrest him, but their efforts
were of no avail Three weeks ago Judge
Dugas, of Montreal, and posse of Off
GERS, went down to where it was known
Morrison was in hiding, but they met
with no success. On the 18th of this
month it was arranged that Morrison
was TO meet Judge Dugas and arrange
terms for a surrender. Morrison stipu-
lated that the judge must come without
an escort, and when he found that his
terms were complied with,i he stepped
out from his hiding place and cordially
greeted the judge, and opened the con-
yersation by speaking OF his farm and
other affairs not connected with the case.
He said the only terms on which he
would surrender were that he must be
acquitted OF the murder, and il he was
given three fun days he would leave the
country, provided he was paid the 5000
he was cheated out Of by McAuley.
Both of these terms were of course re-
fused, and after all Morrison expressed
great doubt as to the judges ability to
prevent the hanging, even if he gave his
word to it.
Finally he declined entirely to sur
render, on the ground that he had not
heard from the Hon. MIR. Blake, but
gave to understand that he would abide
by whatever he would advise. The ex-
pedition resulted in failure until yes
terday, when the outlaw was captured.

lars Ed. ARGUS.

Another of CIeveIand's Stupid Orders
Rescinded.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE postofiice
department. has rescinded the order is
sued during the last administration, hav-
ing for its object the encouragement OF
the practice, by trainmen, of carrying
special newspapers, correspondence
and other matter, in other than
in mail trains. 1t is said at the
department there are very large num-
hers of small towns throughout the coun-
try, which have meagre telegraphic fa-
cilities. In many of these villages the
post and telegraphie offices close early,
and to psohihit tzainmen from carrying
to the neighboring town small packages,
containing possible information of the
highest general importance is regarded as
unwise and unjust. The newspapers of
the country, it is maintained, should re-
csive every possible facility fer obtain
ing and disseminating the news of the
day and for this end trainmen have been
encouraged to lend their aid.

The First Comptroller Resigns.

First Comptroller Durham severed his
connection with the treasury department
to-day.
The resignation rose out of the refusal
by Durham, to allow the bill OF Jno. L.
Davenport OF New York, for $4,000, for
extraordinary expense as election COM
missioner during the presidential cleo
tion- This caused an open rupture with
the attorney general and these were ac-
counts then taken out of his hands.
Secretary Window said, this afternoon,
that be accepted Durhams resignation in
the ordinary course OF business, not be-
cause OF any fault with his official con-
duct, but because Of several newspaper
articles rejecting upon the administra-
ten. which are said to be inspired by the
first comptroller, and these attributed
sentiments of the first comptroller, which
if true, must have made it unpleasant for
him to continue in office under existing
circumstances.

ST. LOUIS, April 22.-Special dispatches
from Oklohoma says that every body is
on the qui vive to make grand rush
across the line at noon. Large sums are
being paid for the swiftest horses that
the purchasers may reach the choice
land first. There is as much, if not more
struggling for townsites as for sections.
1t is said that thirty-two townsfte COM
panies are going for Guthrie and half
that number for Oklohoma city; about
twenty-iour for Kingfisher, while there
are applicants for sites on almost every
section. Trouble between townsite COM
panies promises to be as dangerous as
among the claim hunters. Bold schemes
have been concoeted- and it is evident
there is not room in Oklohoma for all
the boomers, so sworn bands have been
formed that those who are left out will
make u united rush and occupy the
Cherokee strip, hoping to get as many
on it, SO that the government will not
think it wise to drive them off.
Capitalists of San Francisco have sent
an agent to Geo. w. Perkins to find a
site for a home which they will build and
