INDIAN WAR IMMINENT.

Friendly Cheyennes Warn Settlers to
Leave Their Ranches-TrOops Moving.
MILES CRY, Mont, June 13.-The at
titude of the Cheyenne Indians con-
tinues to be menacing, though no overt
act has occurred since the killing of
Ferguson. Owing to the fact that the
Indians have left their reservation, and
are scattered over the country in small
parties, settlers are thoroughly alarmed,
and are sending women and chill
dren into town in large num-
bers. Indian lookouts are on all
high points, and are constantly
signalling by mirror flashes and blanket
code. Friendly Indians have reported
to whites that there is to be an out
break, and that they are now making
medicine, which is generally accepted
to mean that they are waiting to be
joined by allies from the Standing Rock,
Sioux and Pine Ridge Cheyennes, to
which messengers have been
sent. The Northern Cheyennes
of themselves only number about
$50 bucks. At the agency on
Rosebud, Maj. Carroll, of the First CAV
airy, has three troops of cavalry-about
140 men. Detachments of a troop of
cavalry and three companies of infant
ry, $50 all told, left Fort Keough, yes
terday, to proceed up the Rosebud and
cooperate with Carroll. Three compa-
mics more at Fort keough could be sent
out. but there is no TRANSFORMATION.

UNDER A CONSTITUTION.
Government Proposed by the Lower Cal
ifornia Eilibusterers.

SAN DIEGO, Cal, June 12.-United
States Marshal George E. Gard arrived
from Ensenada, Lower California, yHs-
terday, where he had been making an
investigation of the filibustering move
ment which was recently exposed.
During his investigation copy of the
provisional constitution of the new re-
public which the tilibusterers expected
to form was secured, and this docu
ment has been forwarded to Washing
ton. The constitution asserts political
freedom from the United States of Mex
leo, and declares that the people here
by delegate their authority to a council
of administration, for the purpose of
war of independence, and the authority
of the said council should be complete
until peace should be declared, when a
constitutional convention Of the people
shall be called. All legislative, judicial
and executive functions are vested in
the said council, and, until the declara
ton of peace, martial law should prevail
on the peninsula.

ALIVE In HIS GRAVE.
Horrible Story of the Burial of a Living
Man at Chicago.

Horrible Story of the Burial of Living
Man at Chicago.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 10.--An afternoon
paper to-day prints the story of a man be
ing buried alive, and gives three column
account with details that seem to affirm it's
truth.
Last Saturday the funeral Of John
Buske, who died suddenly, was held at Ills
residence, and after the services the body
was carried to the cemetery. While the
body was lying in the casket the friends
had remarked at the lifelike appearance of
the face, but the doctor had pronounced
the man dead, and the sorrowing relatives
did not feel like going contrary to the doc
tors opinions.
When the cortege reached the cemetery
someone suggested that the coffin should
be opened, but this was voted down, not
WlthStanding that tapping from the in
side OF the coffin indicated that there was
lite there. AS the body was being low
cred into the grave the tapping became
more pronounced, but the people had as
senlbled for funeral and it had to take
place.
The coffin was dropped into the grave,
the earth fell on the caSket, and in short
time the little mound covered the secret
covered it for a time merely, for yesterday
the grave was opened the coffin removed,
and an examination Of the body showed
that the victim had been murdered through
the careleSsneSS of the attendants. BuSke'S
body was twisted. his features distorted,
tongue bitten nearly in two. and his finger
nails Embedded in the flesh. There was
every indication that horrible struggle
had taken place.

PLOTTING AGAINST THE GAR.
Discovery of Another Conspiracy Against
the Russian Ruler.


ST. PETERSBURG, June l2.-The govern
ment has received information leading
them to believe that new movement
against the life of the Car is contem-
plated. Consequently the guards at
the imperial palace and all the approach
Sc to the building have been doubled. A
number of arrests have been made of
persons who are suspected OF being con-
nected with the movement.
PARIS, June 12.-Gen. SilcerstOff,
special agent of the Russian police, has
arrived IN Paris for the purpose of OBJ
tanning information concerning the Nj
fiilists recently arrested there, and, if
possible, identifying them. IN an in
terview to-day he expressed himself as
confident that the prisoners were con-
nected with the most atrocious
the life of the Gar and
the institutions of the Russian govern
ment that Nihilism had yet organized.
Indeed, he had positive information
that the French contingent of Nihilists
were in COLLISION with those in Russia
and Switzerland to murder the Car
and precipitate simultaneous outbreaks
in different political centers. The
arrest of the Paris Nihilists and
the vigilance of the Russian police
had frustrated the plans of the
plotters, but they were still active. and
large number of arrests, for which
preparations are now being made,
would be necessary to their complete
suppression. 1t is understood that Col.
Silcerstof will make formal application
for the names of the Russian CORE
spondents of the Paris prisoners.

BENNETT LAW CONDEMNED.
The Lutheran Synod at Dubuque on the
Wisconsin School Act.

DUBUQUE, Ia, June 1.-THE Lutheran
Synod, in session here, adopted resolu-
tons virtually condemning the Wiscon-
sin Bennett" school law While prais-
ing public schools and declaring them a
necessity, the resolutions say: ''We ia
vor compulsory attendance at school if
thereby is understood the general prici-
pie that parents shall send their children
to school, it, however, being left to their
discretion to select the school to which
to send their children. We are opposed
to compulsory attendance at the public
school. 1t is not in accord with the
spirit of the constitution of the United
States, or different states, when laws are
made which limit perfect liberty of re-
igious law. We declare we will oppose
such laws as restrain religious liberty,
and especially threaten the continuance
or independence of our parochial
schools, with ali legal and moral means
justly available, disregarding all party
issues -

Passes Away.

The Weu-AnOWn Chicago Newspaper Man
Passes Away.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 12.-Charles r.
bennett, managing editor of the Globe,
died suddenly last evening. Mr.. Den
nett was born in Nova Scotia in 1924, and
when still quite young entered the
newspaper business in Boston. His
first engagement outside Of Boston was
with the New York Herald, under the
elder Bennett. Coming West in the sos
he accepted position on the Cincinnati
Commercial. He next went to Toledo,
and was interested in paper in that
city His next move was to st. Paul,
where he was connected with the Pho
neer Press. The late Wilbur F. Storey
brought him to this city from st. Paul,
and installed him as managing editor of
the Times, which position he held
for number of years. He abandoned
newspaper work for several years and
went to Kansas, but returned to Chica
90 and resumed his old position on the
Times. In the spring OF 1888, the Globe
having been started by several of his
old associates, he accepted the position
of managing editor, retaining the same

Plan for Louisiana to Vote on the Lottery
Question.

BATON ROUGE, La, June 11.-W. A.
Crandall, chairman of the Democratic
State Central Committee, last night
wrote letter to State Senator Foster,
leader of the anti-lottery faction in
the Legislature, suggesting as a
means of settling the lot
terry question, and avoiding
dissensions within the party ranks, that
the State Central Committee be con-
vened within ten days, and that they
order primary elections throughout the
state, at which white people only will
be allowed to participate; the cleo
tons to be held within thirty days;
and if majority voting at
the primaries favor the submission of
the lottery amendments to the people,
the governor is to call a special session
of the Legislature for that purpose
within thirty days after the election.
The lottery amendment was introduced
in the House, Monday, and yesterday
was referred to the special committee
without opposition.

Strange Scenes at the Columbus Street Car
Riot.
COLUMBUS, O., June 1.-THE Consol-
idated Street Railway Company made
another effort to start cars this morning
al 10 o'clock, and the results and scenes
enacted were similar to those of Mon
day The cars had proceeded but q
few squares when thousands had gath
cred and the tracks were blocked with
stone and rubbish One of the
new employees was driven off by threats
of arrest for receiving money under
false pretences. He had been bought
eff by the strikers. The women took a
big hand in stopping the cars. The
mayor was present and ordered the ar
rest of two citizens who were blocking
the tracks. The situation was threat
ening, but no one was injured. The
employees at some of the leading
manufactures closed down and
turned out as soon as they learned
cars were to be started, in order
to aid the strikers. The mayor is prepar-
ing a list and getting ready to call meet
ing of leading citizens, to consider the
threatening situation. If compromise
is not reached the mayor states he will
ask for the militia to keep peace, as the
police force is inadequate to the occa-
sion
The effort to start the cars was COM
plete failure, and it is claimed by the
strikers as another in their series of vic
tories No further effort to get out cars
will be made this afternoon. The COM
pany and police are keeping their own
counsels, and not publishing their

Armed Dasrymen Resist the Killing OF
Their Cattle.


New YORK, June 12.-The stringent
measures adopted by the secretary of
agriculture to stamp out the virulent
disease of pleuro- pneumonia in cattle
from its last stronghold in the counties
of Kings and Queens, on Long Island,
has created tremendous excitement and
reused the dairymen to armed re-
bellion
1t is understood that Secretary Rusk
recently received private intimation
that unless this disease be effectively
eXtirpated severe quarantine will be
proclaimed by England against the i'm
portaticn of American cattle. This
would paralyze one of the most i'm
portant branches Of American in
dustry for the time being, and
result in incalculable loss to
Western cattle raisers. Last week
Secretary Rusk spent two DAYS in New
York, and energetically imposed upon
his subordinate officers, w. Judson
Smith, government agent for the East
ern states, and DR.. A. K. Robertson,
chief inspector for the state of New
York, the urgent necessity of gathering
IN and killing all cattle diseased or ex-
posed.
A great raid was organized and execu-
ted by the two gentlemen named, at the
head of a large posse of the bureau en-
ployes. The dairymen were not found
unprepared for vigorous resistance.
They launched paving stones, brickbats,
and other missiles upon the invaders,
hand to hand encounters took place,
and in some instances pistols were
drawn.
1t is understood that there will be
other raids, and that Secretary Rusk
measures until this last lurking place of
plegro-pneumonia be effectually con-

TRAIN ROBBER RUN DOWN.
One of the Northern Pacific Desperadoes
Captured by Posse.


DICKINSON, n. D., June 11.-Sherif
Hayes, of this county, has captured one
of the participants in the robbery of the
Northern Pacific train, at New Salem,
last Sunday. In crossing Grand River,
about eighty miles south of here, the rob
ber's horse was injured, compelling him
to stop in his flight, and he surrendered.
He gave his name as Charles E. Bailey.
There were five men in the band, two
of whom came from the West on the
train which they assisted in robbing.
The other three were IN readiness at
the scene of the robbery with
horses, and after the job was COM
pleted the latter started South, and sep
arated when a few miles out. The two
who came from the West remained on
the train, and, from what the prisoner
says, there is no doubt that it was their
intention to rob the passengers, but for
some reason this was abandoned. The
prisoner offered the sheriff 81 900 to re-
ln9ca him
