a Deputy United States Marshal Puts n
Bnti.t In His Wife's Heart and Then Sui
cides.
PARIS, Tex, Dec. 22.-A terrible crime
Is reported from Antlcrs, a small place
on the Frisco road in tho Choctau Ma
ton. William Ladd. a deputy i'll United
States Marshal D%ickerson's office, shot
his wife dead and then shot himself.
Ladd and his wife left this city Friday
night for Antlers, six miles from which
Mrs. Ladd's mother lives. Ladd was
drinking and was heard qnarreing with.
his wife at the station at Antlers,
they concluded to- attend a ball
given at the hotel at Antlcrs instead Of
going out to visit Mrs. Ladd's mother, as
ct first contemplated. Mrs. Ladd danced
ohesset, but as her husband refused to
enter the ball room she left shortly after
and Joined him in his room. Three shots
were heard and someone rushing M
stairs found the. woman O the floor
dead, dressed in her bali dress, shot
through the heart. Ladd was alive, but
he had shot himself under the chin. the
bullet lodging near the top of the head.
HetSi stail alive and may recover, but
his tongue Is so mangled hc cannot
speak. He admits the killing, however,
and the deed was undoubtedly committed
In q drunken frenzy. Laid has. had "a

THE MESSIAH CRAZE.
A Ghost Appear. to the For. per.hold In.
dians and They Are Now Dancing.

BISMARCK, Dec. 22.-The Indians on
the Fort Befthold reservation, unable to
any longer stand aside and leave their
red brethren throughout tho country to
have all the fun to themselves, have at
last become affected with the Messiah
craze, and are indulging in ghost dances
with the. same vim that characterizcs the
demonstrations elsewhere. The Ber-
tholds have been the most orderly In
dians OF the American continent. A pri-
vatc letter received to-day states that
some fears are entertained from these
hitherto peaceful Indians. They are
under the. tutelage of several Sioux from
Standing Rock, who deserted during the
annual visit of the Bertholds to that
agency a month ago. They arc begin
ming to act very strangely, said Agent
Murphy, and the agent, ready to be on
the safe side, has asked for troops. Tho
writer of the.lctter expressed the opin-
ion that II any serious results should
occur he believes these Indians, who are
composed Of the eros Ventures, Arick-
arees and Mandans, would notify all the
white people on the reservation to leave,
and that the Indians do not intend to
break away from tho reservation, but
will attempt to hold it against intrusion
by the whites. They want the reserva-
ton all to themselves with no
white men in their midst to modest
them. There is a band of Mandan In
dams. underline leadership of the cele-
brated chief, Crow-Flies-Hig located
on the Little Missouri, west of the Mis-
souri,, which has lever yet yielded ODE
dfence to the government. The Mandans
hold themselves aloof from any inter
course and do not draw subsistence from
the government. More fear is felt from
the latter named Indians than from
those at the. reservation, who have so
long been tho white mans friends. No
trouble further than the ghost dance is
feared from tho Berthold braves. While
the dance is in hot progress they imagine.
they see the ghost of Sitting Bull in a
cloud with arms outstretched, reckoning
them to continue the dance, and they
in due time see their Messiah.

OTTAWA, Ont, Dec. e2.-Con1dentisl
advices from Washington strongly con.
firm the press u~tterances that signia-
cantly point to . crisis next season in
the fur seal controversy. After the re-
lection by President Harrison Of the lat
est British proposal of arbitration, the
imperial government viii suspend
further efforts toward settlement Of
the disputes. By May next, q strong
force OF war vessels will be assembled at
BebrinR sea with instructions to protect
from seizure British vessels engaged in
sealing At distances greater than three
miles from the sea islands and coasts OF
Alaska.
This will not prevent single captures
being made by revenue vessels, but the
FIRST encounter between an American
and q British cruiser will open the way
to . final settlement on the lines that
President Harrison seems about to lay
down, The official tone here is firm,
tranquil and confident. The authorities
look for no trouble or molestation Of
Canadian sealing vessels next summer.
A prosperous season is expected by the
sealers according to advices from Vic

WARRINGTON, Dec. 22.-The pending
British proposal on the seal fisheries Is
to refer to the determination of a
friendly and impartial arbitrator tho
question whether the seizure Of British
sealing vessels by the United States in
1887 and 1889 we're or wero not lawful
seizures. To this form of the proposed
submission of the case to arbitration,
tho president strenuously objects, and
he never will agree to it unless congress
shall assume the responsibility of yield
ing adherence to it. The principal
ground of objection is that such o form
Of submission will preclude the arbi-
traitor from giving effect in his decision
otherwise than argumentatively or col
laterally to those duties of comfy and
good neighborhood, which, as the presi.
dent contends, are owed BY Great Brit
ain to the United States in respect to

A Farmer With Too Much Boose seri.
ously Irjured-An Important Decision.
R%EDF1ELD, s. D., Dec. eo.-Speeial: A
farmer living near Msllette got too much
bug Juice aboard and started home in 4
hilarious condition. His team became
frightened at an object alongside tho
road and he was unable to control them.
The wagon was overturned ard he was
severely injured. A warrant was issued
for the arrest Of Chas. Boot, of that
place, for selling him the ''stuf." While
the sheriff was reading the warrant of
arrest to BOOi, who was in the upper
story Of his saloon, he suddenly made 4
dash for liberty and jumped down the
entire lcngth Of the stairs, and escaned
In the darkness. No trace can be found
Of him.
Judge Campbell, Of the district court,
has handed down an important decision
to the effect that the county commission
ers have no right as an equalization
board to raise individual assessments IN
9 oity after the same having been passed
upon BY the city boards Of equalization.
This decision is 81 important one to
some OF our business men, whose assess
ments were raised by the county board.
The extra amount levied will now be re.
turned by the county as ordered by the,
court. Other cities in the sxate have
awaited this decision as a test case. It
is expected that suits will be commenced,
IN several counties, by citizens Of cities,
where taxes have been unlawfully raised.
