OUADRUPLE HANGING.
Four Indians Pay the Death Penalty
Montana,


Montana.
MIssoULA (Mont.I, December 10Th The
greatest hanging which ever took place in
the Northwest occurred here this morning
Four Indian murderers were hanged at the
Courthouse here. Their names were La La
See, Pierre Paul, Antley and Pascale.
Pierre Paul and Antley smilingly bade
their friends good by. Twenty minutes
after the trap sprung all were dead. Their
necks were broken.
The crimes for which the four Indians
were hanged were the most coYardly and
brutal.
Pascele killed prospector named J. NJ
Dunn in the spring of 1889 near Demers
vile. Dunn traded horses with him, and
when he refused to trade back the Indian
shot him, taking the horse and what money
he had. Pascale hid the body in the brush,
where the bones were discovered months
later by another Indian to whom Pascale
admitted the crime. The bones were iden.
tilted by the remnants of clothing and Pas
Gale was arrested.
Antley's crime was participation in the
murder of three white prospect ors-Mc
Donald, Seely and Thompson-in the fall
of 1887 at Wolf Creek, near Tobacco
Plains. The prcspectors were surprised a.
q campfire by party Of six Kootenai In
dians, and were murdered in cold blood
Two of the Indians were captured soon
after, and lynehed by the people of De-
mersvllle. Antley remained at large till
last summer.
La La See and Pierre Paul killed two
white men, whose names are not known
in August, 1887, and threw the bodies into
the Jack river, where they were found by @
half breed woman, who was cautioned by
the murderers to say nothing about the
bodies. She notified the authorities, and
the murderers were arrested last summer
The murders were unprovoked. The four
prisoners were tried and convicted before
Judge Marshall at Missoula last fall.

a RECEIVER WANTED.
The Directors of an Insurance Company
Accused OF Fraud.

ccused Of Fraud.
PORTLAND (Or), December 9h.-On
December Stb, Charles R. Barnett, citizen
of Kentucky, tiled a petition in the United
States Circuit Court, asking for the appoint
ment of q receiver for the Northwest Fire
and Marine Insurspce Company.
The corporation was incorporated under
the laws of Oregon, with the principal
office in this city. Ten days were given
the insurance company to answer the pc
tition. The case was called in Court to-
day, but as the parties to the suit were not
quite ready, the hearing was postponed till
this afternoon.
In The petition, Barnett alleges that he is
the owner Of l25 shares Of the original cap
ital stock; that the Board of Directors has
maintained and Kept false accounts and
statements for the purpose of deceiving,
misleading and deludirg the stockholders
and for the purpose of misleading the State
officers whose duty it is to look after the
affairs of all insurance companies in the
State, and for the further purpose of delud-
ing the public generally.
The petition further alleges that on Oc.
tober 20, 1890 the Directors, levied an assess
ment OF so per cent. on the subscribed
stock, giving fourteen days only to pay the
same, well knowing that owing to the
financial s'ringency the holders must for
felt their holdings. and when the forfeit
should occur the Directors would be given
an opportunity to buy in the stock; that
the affairs OF the corporation did not war;
rant such action save for the aggrandize-
ment of the personal interests of the Di
rectors.
The petition further sets forth that the
business of the corporation can now be
wound up with but slight loss to the stock
holders, but if further conducted as at
present will result in loss to the sharehold-
ers, and will continue a menace the p1b-
lie doing business with the corporation.
Secretary of State Mcbride examined the
companys books November oh last, and
his examination as published showed tha
total assets of the company to be $685.
S23 IS, and liabilities $113 482 rs.
Upon this showing the Directors will
probably ask that the petition be set aside,
and that the company be allowed to con-
tinue business, The hearing is now in
progress. The conpsuy has risks through
out the Northwest valued az about $40, ,000,.
600. The company sustained severe losses
al the time of the Seattle, Spokane and
Ellensburg fires.

pard Hypnotized.
PARIS, December 19th.-In the Evraud
trial too day DR.. Liegeois, head of the medi.
cal faculty of the College of Nancy, and a
believer in hypnotization, explained his
ideas on the subject, and expressed surprise
that he had not been allowed to see Nile.
Bompard for the purpose of ascertaining to
what degree she is susceptible to hypnotic
influence. The prisoner ought again to be
put to sleep by mesmerism in order to re-
vive her recollection of the facts occurring
at the moment of the confession of the
crime. According to the indictment, Ey-
raud had not been able to put Mile. Bonn
pard asleep, yet she had been amenable to
the hypnotic influence of Garanger, having
revealed the crime to him while hypno-
tized. For his (LiegeoisO part, if he were
the Judge, bearing in mind the previous
miscsrriages of justice, he would rather
cut off his head than pronounce sentence
upon Mile Bompard.
When the sensation which this dsclara.
ton caused had subsided, the Procureur
asked by what scientific means it was de-
termined whether hynotic sleep is real or
simulated.
Liegeois replied that subject really put
TO sleep can bear, withsat betraying any
symptoms of sensibility TO pain, pin pricks
in various portions of the body.
DR.. Brouardel was then called and said
he had little esteem for the theories of
hypuotism. Liegeois' statements wanted
scientific proof. Brouardel was not in
favor of again hypnotizing the prisoner
He did not wish to run the risk Of letting
the audience hear the revelations that
might be made by the accused.
Drs. Mollet and Ballet shared his views.
They thought the case too complicated to
have been committed under hypnotic in
fuence.
Mile. Bompard's counsel and counsel for
Eyraud Jointly requested that the woman
be hypnotiSd in open Court.
The Judges, after consultation, refused
the request

SUDDEN DEMISE.
The Excitement of Hanging Causes a
sherih's Death.

6h0rlh Oe8tns
SHERBRooKE (Quebec), December 19th.-
Sheriff Webb died suddenly of heart dis.
ease at S:45 o'clock this morning. He was
preparing to execute Remi La Montague.
and it is believed that the excitement at
tending the preparations for the hanging
was the cause of his death.
La Montague was hanged at 926, the
Sheriff's death having delayed the execu-
ton only few moments.
The crime for which La Montague suf.
fered the extreme penalty of the law was
most abominable. One night in the month
of July, 1888, he went to the house of his
brother -in-law, Napoleon Michel, entice
him to the door and shot him twice. Then
he deliberately cut the throat of the
wounded man and slashed his bleeding
body with the knife Not satisfied with
this act of unparalleled brutality, the MUIR
derer dragged the still living man back
into the house and set it on fire. He then
fled, leaving his victim for dead, but Michel
dragged himself from the flames, badly
burned, and died after few weeks, but not
without relating to the officers of Justice
all that had occurred.
Mrs. Leda Michel, wife of the victim and
sister Of La Montague, an unusually hand.

Morris, storekeeper at Cheyenne City, near

band arrived ard held big council with
the Cherry creek Indians to see whether
they should fight or not. and were Joined
after the council was over by $50 Chero-
KEGS, all of whom started for the Bad
Lands. Morris says during the time the
refugees were getting away to the Bad
Lands sharp firing was heard between the
Indian police and the hostiles, and that
battle no doubt has been fought, but as the
settlers made haste to reach the towns
they can give no further particulars. As
the troops were ordered to that point yes-
terday it is believed the hostiles were
routed and captured.
