SAvILLE, l.. l., Dec. PA most
brutal murder was committed last
night at Bohemia, small village three
miles north of here. Late this evening
Frank Krutis, cigarmaker, walked
into the house of Constable Sashek, laid
on the table human finger and said he

cigarmaker, and had brought the finger
to prove it. The constable first thought
the man was joking, but Krutis said
II mean what say. Croupa told about
me, and I concluded to kill him.

his throat. l wanted to make sure
he would never speak again, so cut

his face then cut off a finger for you"
The constable hastily summoned a
posse, and accompanied by the MUIR
derer, they went out and found the body.
1t was horrible sight. 1t lay in the
bloody snow. The clothing was torn
from it. The entrails lay over the breast,
neck and face. The right ear and the
index finger were missing.
When the party returned to the vii

which wanted to lynch the murderer,
but the constables succeeded in getting

conducted himself in a stolid manner
1t is believed jealousy OF Croupas atten-
ton to a young woman, was one OF the
motives of the crime.

THE COPYRIGHT QUESTION,
Canada Has Not the Power to Legislate
on the Subject.

OTTAWA, Ont, Dec. 27.-Sir John
Thompson says the Canadian govern
ment has received no communication
from the British colonial office on the
subject of the copyright question, except
the transmission of the views of a society
of authors, already published. Lord
Knutsford is of the opinion that Canada
has not the power to legislate on the
question of copyright, and it has not
been agreed to confer the power upon
her. Sir John Thompson has good
reasons for believing that during the
present and next session OF the imperial
parliament, legislation conferring the
power will be placed. He is OF the
opinion that the passage of the Simonds
copyright bill would otaffect the Cana
dian question, as that measure gives
British authors domestic copyright in
the United States, on the condition that
the work is reset with American type
and bound in the United States. An
order in council was passed by the Can
adian government some time ago, asking
the colonial Office to withdraw Canada
from the Berne copyright convention.

A CONSPIRACY.
Sensational Developments in Sodomite
HammOnds Case.

Sensational Developments in Sodomite
HammOnd's Case.
SEATTLE, Dec. 27.-Sensational devel-
opments in the Charles Hammond grand
larceny case were brought out in the
motion for new trial in the circuit
court today. Hammond was convicted
of stealing a sealskin sacque and gold
watch belonging to Mrs. Simons.
Today an affidavit OF ex-Policeman
Hanna was filed in court, in
which Hanna states that Mrs. Simons
called on him to search the house of
woman named Bohannen, whom she
charged with stealing her sacque and
watch. Another affidavit was filed, in
which a lodging-house keeper named
Beadle, swears that Simons, the hus-
band of the woman who swore Hammond
had stolen her things, had been treating
some of the jurors to the drinks during
the trial. 1t is claimed that the whole
case is a conspiracy to get Hammond
out of the way. The man who worked
up the case and figured as prosecuting
witness, is suspected of being an Eng
lish detective in the employ of the
patrons of Hammond's Cleveland-street
house in London, sent here to rid the
country of Hammond.

AN ENCYCLICAL LETTER.
POPE LEO DISCUSSES THE SOCIAL
PROBLEM.
He Espouses the Cause of the Lowly. and
Oppressed-The Crowning Effort of
His Life Work. ~

PARIS, Dec. 27.-Advices from Rome
state that the pope has finished draft
of his encyclical upon the social ques-
ton. His holiness has been working
upon the subject for over year, and at
his request the most competent econo-
mists and bishops of different countries,
including America, furnished memo
randa. The pope considers the question
the greatest of the present time. The
encyclical will be the crowning act of
the pope's work in this direction. The
date of its publication is not yet given,
but the Associated Press correspondent
is enabled to give the substance of it
now.
The eEcyclical will review and ex-
pound the whole question affecting
wage-workers. The document will COM
prise three parts. First, his holiness
will develop the general principles upon
which social economy is founded, and
the dominant idea of distributive JUS
tice which should regulate the inter-
course of men and the spread of wealth.
The pope says distributive and restora-
tive justice is needed to prevent mise ry
and sweating on one side, and exorbi-
tant riches and tyranny on the other.
The second part comprises the origin
and causes OF the present condition of
the social problem. On this point his
holiness takes the new thesis first devel-
oped in his encyclical on socialism.
The third part contains the views of
the pope regarding the remedies beyond
religious and moral influence to be advo-
Gated. His holiness expresses himself
again in favor of intervention by the
state within the limits previously set
forth. He condemns capitalism as now
organized, and advocates more equit-
able and just distribution of riches. The
pope is convinced that the papacy and
the church should lead the present So
cial and democratic movement, and will
appeal to all the conservative forces and
the protestants to aid in securing the
safety of society.
The pope's physician says his holiness
may live for some time yet, as he has q
robust constitution and is suffering from
no intirmity.
Los Angeles herald., 1890-12-28

advices received stated that the crew of
sixty natives, with several European Of
ficers, were supposed to have met their
death, eithor in the flames or by drown
ing. 1t now seems that the number of
lives lost is over 200, all by drowning.
The false report as to the suspension
of Messrs, Pixley & Abell, bullion brok-
ers, of this city, arose from the financial
indiscretions of youthful member of
the firm, who has since retired. The
firm stood it unimpaired, and other
banks have announced that they are
satisfied with the stability OF Pixley &
Abell.

CROOKED CONSULS,
Gross Irregularities Practiced by Our
Officials in Canada.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Acting on in
formation from the treasury department
to the effect that irregularity was sus-
pected in consular authorization of
Canadian goods imported into the
United States during the past twelve
months, the secretary of state recently
determined on thorough investigation
of the United States consular service in
the Dominion of Canada. While it is
impossible to obtain an official acknowl
edgement to that effect, it is understood
that extensive frauds have been discov-
cred in the shape of systematic under
valuation by consignees, and in whole
sale collection OF illegal fees by consular
officers. The amount of money involved
is said to be very large, but the exact
sum cannot now be ascertained. Secre-
tary Window said tonight if the charges
were proved, the guilty officers would
be punished if there is any power in the
law to do it.

Poisoned Meat.

EUGENE, Ore, Dec. 27.-Several par
ties in this city have recently been the
victims of accidental poisoning, sup
posed to have been from eating head
cheese. Yesterday the family OF j. H.
Wilkinson were all reported in dan
gerous condition, and today Joel Ware
and his entire failmy are sick with the
same symptoms. They ate some meat
of the same kind and from the same
market, as that which was supposed to
have poisoned the other family. Some
of the victims have been prostrated for
two days and are yet in a dangerous
condition.

NO FURTHER BLOODSHED
THE INDIAN TROUBLE BEING
NICELY ADJUSTED.
The Bad Lands Renegades All En- Route
TO Pine Ridge-Big Foot's Where
abouts Still a Mystery.

RAPID Cry, s. D., Dec. 27.-News re-
ceived today indicates that the Indian
troubles are about to be brought to a
close without the sacrifice of more lives.
General Miles's advices OF last night
that the hostiles in the Bad Lands had
listened to the friendlies and were on
their way to Pine Ridge, were confirmed
by dispatches from General Brooke
today. The whole body of braves,
squaws and papooses are now
en- route to the agency. A
courier states that the party have
already reached White river, and will
camp tonight on White Clay creek, at a
point about. sixteen miles from the
agency. Other scouts confirm this by
reporting the camps in the Bad Lands
deserted. General Miles has ordered
several bodies of troops to carefully
search the Bad Lands for stragglers,
secreted arms, etc., and to draw in
toward the agency. The general now
wants to know where Big Foot is. Moth
ing definite from him has yet been
heard.
A HALF-BREED's STORY.
CREsToN, S. D., Dec. 27.-The Indians
are still carrying on depredations and
growing much bolder. A half-breed
came into the camp on the Cheyenne
river, and was interviewed about the
hostiles in the Bad Lands. He saws he

the hostiles to return from the Bad
Lands. There are, at the least calcula-
tion, 500 to 600 warriors among the hos
tiles, all well-armed, and all declaring
that they would fight. He entertains
great fears as to the $50 friendlies, as he
is almost sure the majority OF them are
killed. He says the hosties have an
immense stock of provisions, and that
their stronghold is almost impregnable.
