A well-to-do farmer from Indianapolis
arrived in the Wonon Station one evening
two weeks ago. He had come to Chicago to
see the sights, but was quite shrewd Hoos-

as he turned to move away he rar squarely
against pretty little black-eyed woman.
He excused himself awkwardly, while the
woman inclined to enter into a conversation
But the farmer had been in Chicago be-
fore. and he left her. He turned into one
OF the badly lighted streets, however, whe
he heard the patter of feet behind him. He
turned, and then the little woman ran up
crying, Save me from that awful woman"
She was almost hysterical with excitement

came running up, and as she came closer
the little woman renewed her cries and

him if he did not go straightway home

, Three Arrests Made His Meeting in
the New City Hall Plaza.
DR.. O'Donnell occupied his accustomed
stand at the new City Hall plaza yesterday
afternoon. The independent candidate for
Mayor opened his meeting at about o'clock,
but had not proceeded far in the advocacy
of his own candidacy when disturbance
took place, which for time turned the
meeting into mass of jostling. struggling
human beings. a man in the crowd, who
aEterward gave the name of John Brown,
took exceptions TO some of DR.. 0'DonneiPs
illusions to " Boss" Buckley. An alterca-
ton ensued between him and p Hardeman,
one Of ODonnelPS followers. and their
words became so loud that the voice of the
orator OF the day was lost. The attention of
the spectators was transferred from the
Wagnn Of the Independent candidate for
Mayor to the scene Of the two fighting men.
Officer Tobin ran uD to see what was the
cause OF the disturbance. and placed both
inca under arrest. charging them with bat
terry.
O'Donnell resumed his speech, but had
not gone much further in his remarks when
his elOquence was again cut short BY an
other and larger disturbance Another man
in the crowd objected to O'DonnelPs refer
ence TO the Democratic "boss," and said he
was a Buckley Democrat from away back.
This angered o. Oliver, who drives O'Don-
neiPs wagon, and row ensued between the
two men.
DIR. O'Donnell, who said he saw the fight
with took place under his nose, st tied
that the man raised a heavy cane and struck
at Oliver, VI no put up his arm and warded
off the blow; otherwise he would have
been dangerously hurt if struck on the
head
The police, however, claim that, accord
ing to the statements OF numerous parties,
Oliver was the aggressOr and started the
row. Officer Tobln arrested Oliver and
charged him with battery, but was unable
10 capture TIE other man.
The second arrest was too much for DIR.

lie deS ended from his wagon and proceeded
toward the New City Hall Station, followed
by the crowd who encouraged him in his de-
sign. When the station was reached, the
sergeant In charge ordered the heavy door
leading 10 the prison closed, as the rush of
the crowd IN the corridors was too great.
Dr. O'Dannell was the only one admitted TO
the station, and he secured the release OF his
two men on depositing $50 bail. When the
released men appeared on the outside,
ODonnelfs followers cheered them Justify.
The ex-Coroner and Independent candidate

and resumed his INTERRUPTED discourse
This Is the first disturbance that has taken
place at O'D0nnelPS meetings for long
time, and the police were surprised at its
occurrence.
DIR. O'Donnell in his subsequent speech
claimed that he had received notice that a
Buckley gang would attempt to break up
bis meetings, and said lie would be prepared
for them. An extra force of police viii be

HoODWINKING THE REDS.
Shrewd Schemes of the Whites to
Secure Their Lands.

Special to the Clone.
HURON, s. D., March 9.-The register
and receiver of the United States land
Office in this city received notice to-day
to the effect that the department at
Washington had been advised that Ger
tain persons contemplated impositions
on the Indians living upon ceded lands
in the Sioux reservation, entitled to
take alIotments of the lands upon which
they resi- led, as provided by act of con-
gress of March 2, 1889, by inducing the
Indians to sell or otherwise dis
pose of their lands and thereafter
appropriate the tracts to themselves
as settlers thereon. The commissioner
in his letter of advice says to the local
land officer: II desire, therefore. to call
your attention to this matter. and to say
to you that it is the duty and intention
of the department to protect the In
dians, as fully as possible, from any
wrong or imposition by which they
might be deprived of the benefit in
tended to be secured to them under the
open violence or some form of trickery
and fraud, in the specious guise of
mutual agreement for exchange of
values. In pursuance Of this purpose,
no purchase, by white persons. of the
settlements or Improvements of the
Indians will be recognized as having
any validity, and their right to take
allotments of the lands on which they
reside at their option will be recog-
niZed and enforced whenever claimed
by them within the period of one year
prescribed in said section Is. notwith-
standing any pretended purchase of
their improvements that may be set up
against them, or any allegation that
may be made OF their removal from the
land and abandonment thereof in favor
of white claimants. The department
will expect the careful, intelligent and
efficient cooperation of all its employees
in this purpose. You are to this end
directed to make yourselves ac-
Quainted, as far as possible, with the
facts connected with the residences of
the Indians on the lands in question,
and otherwise prepare yourselves to ex-
tend protection to them, in the dis
charge of your duties, against any who
may entertain designs against them.
You will take all means in your power
to communicate the substance of these
instructions to all persons concerned,
that none may be in ignorance on the
ject. You will endeavor to prevent any
filings or entries being made in contra
vention of the rights of the Indians,
and any filings or entries that may be
made will be treated as subject to the
Indian right to take allotments as here
inbefore indicated"

LONDON. March 9.-The Liberals
were never so jubilant as now, and
never was the work Of organization car
ried on so enthusiastically in their
ranks. The results Of the recent bye
elections have made it certain that the
Conservatives have lost their majority
IN the country, and that as soon as an
appeal to the people can be had the
Gladstonians will win. RnmOrS are
again current that parliament will be
dissolved Immediately after the passage
of the budget. The Tories seem to have
anchored their hopes on the budget,
hoping by some financiering skill to re-
gain the confidence which their policy
i'll other directions has lost them. 1t
is, however, forlorn hope. Club gos-
sip has it that Mr.. Akers-Douglas,
the Tory whip, resigned because of last
nights counting out of the house. which
the government intends to explain as
the result Of Liberal plot. The un-
precedented occurrence of such an i'm
portant debate ending in such a manner
is, however. too significant to be ex-
planned by this hypothesis, and the pub
lie will not be deceived. The fact is
that the government has made such
mess of the Parnell commission matter
that even its own supporters, though
loyal enough to vote for the ministry,
will not talk for them, nor cOuntenance
the further discussion of the question at
issue.

Nominal Interest.
WASHINGTON, March 9.-The uncer-
tainty surrounding the disposition of
the questions raised by the recent con-
sideration of executive session matters
makes it impossible to forecast with any
degree of accuracy the work of the SEN
ate for this week. Senator Dolph'S
committee will tomorrow resume the
Interrogation under oath of members of
the senate, respecting their connection
with "leaks" in the past, and the report
of their discoveries may precipltate an
other discussion similar to that OF last
week. So much of the time OF the senate
was taken up with that discussion
that the Blair educational aid bill
was not disposed of, and 1t
still heads the calendar as
unfinished business. A very general
feeling exists in favor of closing this
debate this week, and to take vote on
the bill II possible. Mr. Evarts will
close the debate In support OF the meas
ure. The report of the committee on
privileges and elections on the Montana
case is likely to be made this week, but
the debate that must enSue will not be-
gin until the Blair bill is out of the way.
luC ulScllG uSuClCICy DllA Will W ~

ations this week. Senator Stanford will

nominal rate of interest, or per cent

occasion demands. In the morning
hours the Oklahoma tOWnsite bill may
be considered, and further progress
made in the execution of the order to
dispose of public building and bridge
bill on the calendar. The work of the
house this week will probably be de-
voted principally to adding new stars to
the national flag. The District of Co.
lumbia committee will occupy to-mor-
row in the disposition of measures re-
lating to local affairs, ard after that the
Oklahoma bill will be taken up and
passed upon finally, as far as the house
is concerned. Then, according to notice
already given, the territories committee
will present for the consideration of the
house the bill to admit Wyoming as
state of the Union; and this will be
followed by the Idaho bill, if any time
remains. The committee on elections
desires to call up the contested election
case of Mudd vs.. Compton, from Mary
land, but will only do so, according to
present arrangement, if it can be done
without interfering with the statehood
bills already mentioned.
