Ryan. has been received. BY order OF
Bishop Ryan. Father Pawief tried to hold
services In the church. The priest notified
the police thai he would obey orders, and
asked for projection. Over 20 policemen
were therefore sent to his aid The priest
was escorted in his buggy TO the church by
. Gordon Of armed detectives. On arriv-
ing ~ the church they found drawn up
around the bsrricade which had been
erected around the church fully 1850
Polish women and girls. The men stood
aloof on the other side of the street and
looked ON. The policemen we're in
structed NOT 10 strike the women
with their lists or batons. The war began:
the Polish wives fought like enraged tigers
and pushed the policemen away from the
gate by sheer force Of numbers. Finally
the policemen beat down the barrieadc and
surrounded tho women. Then from their
aprons the women produced salt and pep
per. which they flung into the bluecoats'
eyes. They scratched. bit. struck, kicked,
and yelled like 80 many cats.
The arrival Of the priest was the signal
for the climax OF the riot. The wonen
hurled themselves en- masse upon his car

them. who acted IS . leader. actually
caught the priest By the throat and would
have strangsed him. II took four police
men TO pnli her off,

THE CHEROKEE STRIP.
Prospective settlers Already Attract
ed ia Large Numbers.

GurHRIE, /. r., March 3.-.Thc pros
pect ofthe early delivery of the Chero-
kee strip to home seekers is attracting
large numbers OF boomers from Kansas
City to the northern boundary of the
strip, which is already lined with boom
rs. The rush into the Cherokee lands
will equal that into Oklahoma.
At this place. on the southern bounda-
ry Of the strip, the boomers are be-
ginning TO arrive iu great numbers,
choosing the banks Of Cottonwood river
AS temporary homesteads.
The recent ''norther,' with it, severe
cold, caused some suffering among the
poorly'housed people, but no fatalities
are reported,
The "boomers" who arc camped
around Guthrie will have a double
chance of securing Tree lar Is. Cne
chance is the Cherokee strip ana the 9th.
er at the Iowa reservation. The Iowa
Indians recently determined to take up
their land In severalty and sell the re-
mainCer of their reservation to the gov
ornmcnt. When the Indians have taken
the Allotted amount of land there will re.
main 2Ol. 600 acres of land, quite as ler-
tile as any yet opened TO settlement in
the Southwest.

The nine members of the senate COM
mittee on privileges and elections met
with closed doors and considered the
Montana election case to-day. No ac-
tion was taken, but the evidence was
carefully considered. The expression of
opinion among the members of the com
mittec was guarded, hut their general
conversation indicates that the five re-
publicans will favor the seating of San
dcrs and Power, and it is quite possible
that some of the democrats will join
them IN the report. IL is only question
ol time now before Montana will be rep
resented in the senate.
The committee had no desire to hear
any further arguments, or to receive any
more testimony, as both sides had closed
at the last meeting.
The republican senators have been
cauvassed pretty closely, and 1t is gem
orally understood that they will all
favor the cause OF the republicans, not
only on party lines, hut because the case
presented makes the best showing. II is
even hoped that several democratic
senators will support the majority re-
port of the committee.

Secretary Noble to-day made AN i'm
portant ruling in the case of the North
ern Pacific Railroad Company, involving
a little strip of land in section Z, town
ship 8, range 9. in the Vancouver
Wash, district. The land lies within
the limits of the grant TO the Northern
Pacific, made in July, 1864 Prior to
that time, Aurys had lived ON the land
and made some improvements
He had never filed any
claim for it, because no
survey had ever been made and the land
was not on the books or maps of any
land office. lie claims that although no
filing had been made his occupancy was
enough to except 1t from the gr.,nt.
Secretary Noble sustains him, holding
that he gave evidence Of intention to
file on ii as soon as the surveys were
made, and lie holds that congress in
tended to exclude such lands from its
grant.
The secretary says; at was urged tn at
congress was aware that by the act in al id
oi ropd extending across the western
half of the continent, ii was making u
grant far beyond the line of government
surveys in regions occupied and to be
occupied largely by settlers awaiting the
advent OF the surveyor to prefer their
claims, In this view | concur. 1t
seems, beyond question, that i, was to
protect such settlers as described above
that congress excepted from the opera
tion of the grant the tracts occupied 10y
settlers. Congress made occupation the
test instead of entry

Buffalo Bill Received by the
Pope.
WITNESSED BY MULTITUDES.
The Indians and Cowboys Pic

A Remarkable Scene.

NEw YoRK, March A Rome cor
respondent writes: The reception by
the pope at his tyvsfth npnual thanks
giving oi Buffalo Bill, with cowboys and
Indians, was one Of the strangest scenes
ever witnessed in the vatican.
A vast multitude surged into the great
square before st. Peters early in the
morning Before $3.50 o'clock Ducal
hall, Royal hall and the Sistine chapel
were packed. Through the middle
Of the audience tile pathway was

chamberlains. The light fell upon Lines

suddenly Buffalo Bill appeared. Be
hind him was Buck Taylor. who
lowered hugely above the taIicst man in
the palace, and then came Broncho
Bill, in buCkskin, and after him
trooped the cowboys, slnshed with
mud and picturesque beyond descrip-
tion. Rocky Bear led the Sioux war
riors in the rear They were painted in
every color that Indian inlGgination
could devise and every man carried
presents for the medicine man of the
greH spirit
The Indians and cowboys were rn nged
in solid mass in the south corner of
the ducal hail. while Buffalo Bill was in
yitcd to place in the tribune of the Ro-
man mobiles.
Then the pope appeared, carried
above the heads of tile guards, and
preceded by the knights of Malta and
procession of cardinals and arch
bishops.
The cowboys bowed, and so did the
Indians. Rocky Bear knelt, and made
the sign of the cross. Tho pontiil
leaned yenrningly toward the group,
and blessed them. He .med touched
by the sight. As the train swept on, the
Indians were with difficulty restrained
from whoOping.

TARIFF REFORM.
A Letter From Ex-Prssident Cieve-
land Read at Ind annapolis.

lSDIASAPoLIs, Ind, March AT n
meeting of the State Tariff Reform
League tonight letter was read from
ex.President Cleveland, in which he
says, in part Though my letters to
democratic and tariff reform assem-
blages lately have been very frequent,
can not deny your request to say a word
of encouragement to tariff re
form. The democratic party, as
the party of the people, are opposed
10 the selfish scheme which Ignores
the public good and are pledged to the
interests of all their Countrymen, instead
of the interests Of the few, who seek to
pervert governmental powers for thoir
enrichment. IL was never nearer the
fundamental principle than on the con-
tests for tariff reform, 1t certainly adds
to the satisfaction with which we labor
In the cause to be reassurcd that our Of
forts are not only to serve our party, but
all the people of the land"

river salmon, weighing between thirty
live and forty pounds each, which
had been shipped to Colonel
Montgomery, of Portland, Or, who was
visiting in Washington, and which were
by him saved up for a delegation OF his
friends In the upper house. The chair

mending that it fecede from Its amend

quiring two OF the trustees to be Ma

Messrs. Brown, of Spokane Tucker
and Ostrandcr, all old soldiers, were op-
posed to rcccding.
Mr.. Judson, of Pierce. said that the
house conference committee invariably
got the worst of the bargain. and the
senate was getting away with the house.
He charged that the provision which the
house struck out was created to enable
the militia-men to sponge upon the old
soldiers By getting camping ground
and means to pay their expenses. Mr.
Geoghegan was in favor Of receding.
