WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-Archbishop
Ireland of South Dakota and Bishop
McGolerick of Duluth to-day had in
terviews with Secretary Noble and
Acting Indian Commissioner Belt upon
the subject of Indian schools in the
northwest. They requested that the
sisters who have been conducting st.
Mary's and St. Johns schools for girls
on the Turtle Mountain reservation and
who were employed as government in
structors when those schools were dis
continued by Commissioner Morgan, be
permitted to preserve this community
seclusion. Secretary Noble informed
them that the superintendent of Indian
schools had already been instructed to
permit the sistars to live apart from
the teachers.

4 Wreck III Kansas.

Topeka, Kan, Oct. 25.-The Denver
vestibule train on the Santa Fe, which
left here this afternoon, was derailed
while going around a sharp curve near
Waukesa. The mail car turned bot
tom up and the express and baggage
cars toppled over on their sides, two
day coaches turned crosswise on the
track, while the chair car, sleeper and
tourist car fell over on their sides, al
most totally wrecking the train.
No one was killed, but many were
injured. Up to a late hour tonight no
deaths have occurred, but some of the
injured are in a critical condition.
The injured are: W. F. Jones and
Harry Stone, mail agents; Mrs. Ellen
Stone, New York; F. L. Turay, ex-
press messenger; I. J. johnson, bag
gage master; Hank Lindsey, Topeka;

pent up feelings and lost entire control
of herself. She sprang to her feet and
with arms raised high in shrill voice
called out: God, Almighty, come
down and do justice, l am not satisfied
to see my dear daughter slaughtered
in cold blood and him (pointing her
finger at the prisoner( have only six
months in Jail. No, no, God, AL
mighty, come into this court house and
do the fair thing. Oh!c come down, oh!
do justice to this case"
Everytime an attempt was made to
pacify her she would break out afresh
and exclaim: Leave go; God has sent
me here to tell tell truth" She scored
the judge, attorneys for the defense
and everyone whom in her frenzy she
thought responsible for the easy man
ner in which the slayer of her daugh-
ter got off. She finally sank to the
floor entirely exhausted and tainted
away. A cot was brought in and the
distracted mother placed upon it and
carried out of the court.

Nebraska-Iowa boundary Line.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-Attorney-
General Leese has filed bill in the
supreme court to determine the bound
ary line between the states of Nebraska
and Iowa. The question disputable
was occasioned. the bill recites, by the
shifting of the bed and channel of the
Missouri river. The document on file
with the clerk of the supreme court
contains nine pages of judiciary print
and is occupied in the beginning by q
description of the we'll known boundary
line recognized by congress when Iowa
in 1876 was admitted to the union of
states and which is found in the law of
the United States, revised statutes, con-
tanning the Iowa admission bill. Then
follows recitation of the history of
the work in the United States land
Office to mark the boundary lines, done
in 1851. and which is a matter of
record in the Office of the states attor-
ney general and the surveyor. The
boundary line recognized by congress
when Nebraska was admitted to state
hood in 1867 is then recited. There is
given statement of the changes of
the course of the current bed and
channel of the Missouri river which
have occurred since 1851, when
they began. A very minute de-
scription of the changes of the river
along and in sections 16, II, q, %,
% and % in Iowa is made, and it is
alleged that they have, under the
boundary lines now recognized by the
United States, given the state of Ne
braska jurisdiction over part of
them, and the supreme court is asked
to grant the usual writ of subpoena
commanding the state of Iowa to ap-
pear before this court and answer the
premises and stand to perform and
abide such order and decree as to this
court as shall be meet and equitable.
There is full and familiar reference
made to the well known questions of
jurisdiction and disputes which have
for years arisen between the two states
on the points named and the court is
reminded that the lands in dispute
''are adjacent to the city of Omaha
and various large industries are being
established and built thereon, over
which each state claims jurisdiction"
The object of the proceedings, the
attorney general states through the
bill, which was filed by his representa-
tives, j. M. Woolworth and c. j.
Green, counsel, is to forever settle the
right OF jurisdiction by determining
the present boundary lines. There
will not likely be further proceedings
under some months, as no answer has
yet been filed by the attorney general
for Iowa.

Political Assessments.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-In regard to
the alleged activity of political asso-
Citations, especially among employees
in Washington, Civil Service Commis-
>sioner Roosevelt said: There is not
the slightest necessity for any clerk to
pay anything now unless he or she
wishes to. Wee are sure no cabinet
officer would permit man to be mo-
Tested for refusing to contribute to the
campaign fund. We will welcome in
formation from any one as to any effort
being made. no matter how indirectly,
to force him to subscribe for political
purposes"

He Hid In the Barn.

SALT LAKE, Utah, Oct. 26.-Blshop
Jorgenson of Fountain Green was
dropped on at 11:3O the other night in
his house by Deputy Marshal Clawson.
as Jorgenson had run in from his MD
ing place in the barn to attend to some
business. This pious man has seven
wives, two of them his hired girls, and
so secretly has the fact been kept thai
an elder recently asked one OF them to
be his bride. The old rooster dropped
onto the game very quick and notified
the holy elder to quit them there.
Thus it leaked out. Jorgensen had a.
hiding place in his barn so cunningly
arranged as to avoid discovery. he
was indicted three years ago for un-
lawful cohabitation and has taken two
or three wives since then. Deputy
ClawsOn has arrested two other polyg-
amists after exciting chases AMI finds.
the sentiment through central and.
southern Utah as strongly against the
United States government and for
polygamy as before Wilfred Woodrutf's-
manifesto. The opinion is growing in
Utah that the whole thing is a sham,
a cunning device to stave off hostile

The Corn CrOp.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct. 23.-The Farm
ers' Review says that careful exami-
nation of the estimates furnished by
correspondents reveals the fact that the
corn crop is turning out somewhat bet
ter than expected. The crop in Mich
igan and Wisconsin is larger than last
year; in Minnesota and Dakota almost
as large. Other states, especially Kan
sas and Nebraska, show considerable
shortage. In several counties in Kan
sas and Nebraska corn is nearly total
failure. The Review gives estimates
on the production of Illinois, Indiana,
Ohio, Kentucky, Missouri, Kansas.
Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa, Nebraska
Minnesota and the Dakotas, and says
after deducting from the gross product
large percentage of understandable
corn, the estimate of the total market
able in the states named is S25, 935, 253
bushels. The condition of the crop in
the remaining states not covered by
the report is estimated at about S5 per
cent of an average

Bridal Tour in a Balloon.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Oct. 25.-At the
state fair yesterday Thomas J. Minis
and Miss Gertrude Pitman of Brewton,
Ala. were married in front of the
grand stand in the presence of 10000
people. The young couple then step
ped into the car of a balloon and with
Ae"onaut Baldwin sailed off on their
bridal tour. The balloon when it was
last seen this afternoon was heading
for the mountainous region of Shelby
county. The young couple secured a
purse of $3.50 and a large number of
presents.
The balloon with the bridal couple
finally landed on top of d moutain,
seventeen miles from Birham.

The Worlds Fair.

CHICAGO, Oct. 22.-At yesterdays,
meeting of the executive committee Of
the worlds fair national commission.
Harris of Virginia offered resolution
which he asked be referred to u COM
mittee of the commission and local dl-
rectory, that the committee to consider
the advisability of appointing Il joint
conference committee of two ladies to-
act permanently with relation to SUBJ
jects in which both bodies were inter-
ested. If this proposition is adopted.
it will result in the creation of body
representing both boards, which would
probably be in almost continuous ses-
sion in this city and would exercise SUI
pervision over all in the practical ad--
ministration of affairs.
The director general submitted a re-
port, urging the adoption OF a system
of bureaus for the administration of
the work Of the exposition. He an
nounced the appointment OF General F.
II. Armstrong us assistant to be sent
to the different states to assist in or
ganiZatiOn.
The subcommittee Of the committee,
ON classification submitted report,
reviewing the entire work of the CON-
mittee and making an estimate of the.
number of acres of floor space and un-
covered ground required for the var
iOus displays, as follows: Agricultural
hall, Is acres; horticultural hall, 5.
acres, with outside space % acres; live
stock 100 acres; no estimate of build
ings; fisheries, 2 acres; mineral palace,
3; machinery hall, 20; transportation,
20, besides open space; electrical pail
Ne, 4; manufacturers palace, 20; fine
ATS gallery, 5. The space to be COW
eyed by the federal building and those
by foreign and state governments and,
special and private exhibitors are not
included in these estimates.
Prof. Blake's report gave Il system
of classification substantially the same
as that tentatively adopted a fortnight
ago, except that he proposes a sepa-
rate department for transportation
railways, vessels and vehicles-and
also q separate department entitled,

gress of labor and invention.n The

American Institute OF fArchitects.

w ASHlNGTON, oct. 24.-1he annual
convention of the American Institute
of Architects began yesterday. The
attendance is very encouraging, repre-
senting all parts of the union. Many
interesting and valuable reports will be
presented and papers read before the
convention during the three days ses-
sion. But one session was held today,
chiefly devoted to preliminary matters.
r. M. Hunt, president of the institute,
was unable to be present on account of
illness and his report was read by one
of the directors. In it, referring to
the government building work as con-
Quoted by the architects Of the treas
ury, he said that while the work is
generally well done, we must hold it
preposterous to assume that any one
person can do justice to the present re-
quirements of the office. The present
arrangements are by no means eco
nomical and the 'imperfections on it
are naturally attributed to political
jobbery or Indifference towards the
matter Of art. Were q national build
ing put in charge of we'll selected men
and the power of the supervising arch
itect restricted to general supervision
of them, it is but reasonable to assume
that the government would be better
and more economically served.

Justice 1III,cr,s successor.

WASHINGTON. Oct 22.-It is now
generally understood that no election
of a successor to the late Justice Miller
will be made until after the meeting of
congress.
Private Secretary Halford remarked
that the appointment of a justice Of
the court when congress was not in
session was thing almost unheard of,
and especially in case of vacancy oc-
curing so near the date of the meet
ing of congress as is this one.
Published reports from Chicago state
that reports We're in circulation there
that Judge Gresham had received a
telegram from Washington asking if
he would accept the position. 1t can
be safely asserted that the report is
not true. The president is in no hurry
about making selection for the place.
1t is now well understood that both
Miller of Indiana and Noble are as
nearly candidates for the place as is
possible under the delicate relations
they hold to the president. Noble is
quoted as having said the position is
the highest ambition of his life, and
that he could not do otherwise than ac-
cept it if offered. Miller is silent when
questioned on the subject. The gen.
eral feeling here is that Gresham is
the best of all the men yet mentioned
for the place, but it is doubtful if Har-
rison will SO far forget their personal
and political differences as to appoint
him under any circumstances.
