burdens Slowly Lifted from Ireland and
Placed on Her.
LONDON, Sept. 19.-The great and growing
liberal party finds itself impeded by it's re-
strictions to the cause of home rule in Ire
land alone. The most progressive section
of this influential wing looks now to moth
ing less than the placing of every depend
ency of the crown under some degree of
local self government. India, with its mil
lions of Asiatic feudal slaves, is now the
object of this latest and most radical
movement which may distance Ireland in
its claims for enfranchisement. The pur-
pose of the liberals to establish a more
healthful measure of self government in
Ireland has been supplemented by the more
recently developed agitation for some
degree of autonomy in the great
India empire Of England. This sub
ject is largely in the hands of the more
radical wing of the liberal party,
in connection with a few unionists and
tories who have liberal ideas, and who look
further ahead than the leaders of their par
ties. The liberals proper have not yet COM
mitted themselves to any definite policy in
relation to India. Mr.. Bradlaugh, MI.
Caine and other advocates of political re-
forms in this country have brought all the
pressure which they can command to bear
upon Mr.. Gladstone to induce him to sup
port, by his speeches, during his coming
stumping tour of Scotland, before the re-
assembling of parliament in November, the
proposition for some form of home rule in
India. Mr. Gladstone, however, hesitates
even to declare himself i'll favor of a tenta-
tive India national congress to discuss the
question of home rule and formulate basis
of argument and debate on that subject. 1t
is altogether probable that he will main
tain an absolute reticence on the question
with his usual habit of sticking close to one
subject of great Importance. until his
end is accomplished and not confusing the
minds of the people by trying to present to
them two rather disconnected and distant
themes of discussion at the same time.
There is no doubt that when he considers
that the proper time is come for a popular
and parliamentary discussion of the India
problem, he will express himself in no un-
certain terms. It is generally regarded in
the meantime as sensible course on his
part, not to say anything in the face of the
malicious misirterpretation which his words
are apt to receive by the tory press When
the season is ripe for him to follow up a
statement of his views by continued argu-
ment and answers to his opponents it is ex-
pected that he will take the lead in this
really important agitation.

MADRID, Sept. 19.-Open brigandage,
railway pillaging, murders, burning of
farms and every sort of tale of outrage are
included in the latest utterances and re-
ports published by the newspaper Impair
cial. of this city, supposed to be trans
mitted without exaggeration from Cuba,
that rich dependency of the Spanish crown.
The newspaper is credited with publishing
semi-oficial reports, but it is not denied
that an extremely significant and exciting
aspect is given to the affairs of Cuba, with
the result of creating good deal of scare
in some quarters, although many attribute
the highly -colored news of disorders in the
Spanish dependency to political exaRgera-
tion. The Impartial describes the
island as in state which amounts
almost to anarchy, and it gives the par
ticulars of the disturbed condition of
the country on what is apparently reliable
authority. It quotes the most fragrant cases
of open briRandage, prints accounts of the
pillaging of railway trains and the MUIR
dering of passengers by the hiehwaymen,
and overwhelms its readers with the records
of all sorts of crime which it represents as
rampant throughout Cuba. It states that
commerce is ruined and that the public is
hopeless of redress, and expresses the fear
that unless Spain takes immediate action
and energetic measures, she will find her
self involved in another great insurrection.
It is generally believed that there is ground
for this alarming report, but how
much is doubtful. While in diplo-
matte circles the account is received with
considerable doubt and later news is await
ed with some concern, the consul general
did not credit the report and added that in
his last dispatch from the island, on Sat-
urday last, he wasn't informed of anv such
trouble. He accounts for the publication
in the Madrid paper and concludes that the
Impartial has been imposed on. The vice
consul stated that the new captain general.
Camilo Polavieja, had been in Office about
two weeks. Prior to that time he was gov
ernor of the province of St. Iago and was
not very we'll liked by the troops. He said
there was a good deal of grumbling in some
quarters, but that Polavieja was too good q
soldier and too brave man not to stamp
out the seed of revolution at once. It is
also thought in some quarters that the
story may be intended to furnish an excuse
for sending fresh force of Spanish troops
to Cuba.

aware that their portraits were being taken

DEER LODGE, Sept. 19.--[ Special. .1-Ex-
United States Marshal Robert s. Kelley
died this morning at two O'Clock of infiam-
nation of the pericardium, commonly
called dropsy of the heart. He was taken
SICK wednesday morning and altl ough the
physicians were called at once and every
thing possible done for him that could be
done it was apparent from the beginning
that his sickness meant death. Robert i.
Kelley was born in Fredericksburc. Va.
Jan. 11th, 1881, and was therefore 50 wears
OF age. He was sent to school in New
Hampshire at the age of ten years, but not
liking the discipline ran away from school
and entered a printers Office in Massachu-
setts, where he worked for five years with
out allowing his parents to know where he
was. His parents finally moved to Missou-
n, whittier he came in 1S4S. He then en-
gagged for awhile in mercantile pursuits.
In 1852 he established the paper called the
Democratic Platform at Liberty. The
next year he established in Kansas the pa
per called the Squatter Sovereign. but later
on sold his interest in the paper and re-
turned to mercantile pursuits in
which he was engaged at the breaking
out of the war. During all the
troublous times in Kansas previous to
the war he was prominent in the politics Of
that state. The government confiscated
his store and property and he went to the
Confederate army as a captain. He never
tried to have his property restored. While
in Kansas, Mr.. Kelley married Miss Mary L.
Foreman. In 1868, after the reorganization
of the regiment to which he belonged, he
emiRrated with his family to Montana, ar
irving in Alder gulch in '63 or "a. Shortly
afterwards he mined in Grizzly oulch.
Then he went to Bear gulch. In 1866 he
came to Deer Lodge, where he since lived.
and engaged in mercantile pursuits with
J. S. Pemberton for about five years. Since
then his bcsiness has principally been in
mining. In 1885 he was appointed United
States marshal by President Cleveland, but
resigned the Office as soon as President
Harrison was inaugurated, believing that the
party in power should have full control Of
the patronage. Mr.. Kelley was a democrat
OF the ultra school. But while he was a
strong partisan, in his private life he vas
tender-hearted. He will always be remem-
bered for his traits of sympathy and kind
ness. He :eaves wife and seven children.
-Four of the children are married, Mrs. Kate
Napton, wife of the district court clerk:
Mrs. Mamie Joslyn, wife of Hon. G. D.
Joslyn; Il. L. Kelley. and Mrs. Georgia Hoss,
wife of Lon Hoss. The three other children
are young. His death excites universal re-
gret. The funeral will take place Sunday.

BUTTE, Sept. l9.-[special.] IL. F. Will
lard, wood hauler camping about eleven
miles back in the mountains from this
place, brings in highly Sensational mrr-
der story. According to Willard's story he
was out in the hills several mornings since
looking for his teams, and while out was
met by man riding a bay horse. The
stranger said he had been out in the hills
all night and was very hungry. Willard
then invited him to 90 to his cabin with
him, which invitation was promptly ac-
cepted. While they were riding along Will
lard suddenly heard some one say:
II have found you at last; throw
up your hands," As he heard
this he turned and saw second stranger
upon grey horse covering stranger No.
with double-barreled shotgun. AS tho
hands of No. went up the gun was dis
charged, both loads taking effect under the
arms and causing instant death. As he
fell, the stranger dismounted, broke his
gun and dropped in two fresh cartridges,
after which he turned and said Good
morningp' to Willard in the pleasantest
tones possible. This friendly greeting
brought back Wjllard's courage, which had
been escaping him, as he thought the last
two charges must have been intended for
him. In explanation of his action, the last
stranger said he had been after his man all
night; that he had stabbed a man below
Anaconda, and had then stolen a horse
upon which to make his escape. He
said he was the sheriff Of Deer Lodge
county, and had been ON the trail ever
since, determined to capture this man OF
die trying. HIS had shot his prisoner be-
cause he was desperate man and no
chances would be safe with him. 'Now
I've got him." said the supposed sheriff,
what am going to do with him?" Will
lard advised him to tie the body on the
back of the horse and carry it off in that
way. which was done. At first Willard be-
lieyed the murderer to be an officer and al
lowed him to go without a thought of fol-
lowing. Later, however, he became suspi-
cious and is now confident the corpse was
dumped into the nearest prospect hole. He
made affidavit to the story before a justice
of the peace this afternoon and also swore
out warrant against the centlemanly
stranger with a superabundance of self pos
session. All the available force from
the sheriff's Office is out tonight looking
for the body and for clue. to the mur-
derer. From Willard's description 1T is
thought the two men were cowboys who
had been riding after stock, and that the
killing was the result of quarrel between
them, and the officers are now engaged in
IN effort to locate these two men and settle
this point at once. It is thought the man
who did the shooting was Ben Jones, as he
had cabin near the scene and is thought
to have left the country; but those who
know Jones refuse to believe him guilty.
