The Springfield Union and other northern
papers have been recently assailing the
south for alleged outrages committed by
whites on ycolored men and women. For
example, they mention a case in Six Mile,
Bibb county, Alabama, where "a party of
white men went to the houses of three negro
women and dragged them from bed in their
night clothes and gave them a terrible fog
ging," and the linton, in commenting on the
case, says: ''As usual, it Is written by q
southern newspaper man, and puts
things in the most favorable
light for the white ex-rebel barbarians "
We leave our readers to judge from the
language of the Union whether sectional
ism is dead or not in the old abolition state.
Outrages are continually being committed
in the north. and they are OF such frequent
occurrence that southern papers have long
ago ceased to point out that there is mis-
sionary field at home which these jealous
friends of the colored brother seem to have
neglected in their anxiety for saving the
barbarians of the south from eternal DAM
nation.

Murat Halstead has not attracted as much at

he would, but, on the contrary, he finds that he

large man in a small place, but in Brooklyn he
is small man in a large place, and this is what
is troubling Murat.

Gen. Boynton, the Washington CORE
spondent of the Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette, has good word to say for Repre-
sentative Clements. He thinks he is one Of
the ablest men in congress. He says: "a
statement has been printed here to the effect
that Representative Clements of Georgia is
to be beaten by the farmers alliance and
some new man sent in his place. If this is
accomplished it will be good illustration
OF the people of district allowing the ma
nfpulators of their politics to deprive them
OF valuable and influential representative
merely to give some new man place. AS
long as Mr.. Clements district is hopelessly
democratic, the only interest republicans
can have is seeing the best man of the oppo-
sition returned. This is Mr.. Clements fifth
term. He has risen to high rank on COM
mittees, and has decided influence in the
House. His membership on the committee
on appropriations gives him a position
which no man, whatever his ability might
be, could reach in many years In this
position he is Of great consequence to his
district, and through him his district has a
recognized standing on the fioorn

Newtoundland,s Agitation.

Our dispatches indicate the existence of an
alarming condition of affairs in Newfound-
land over the fisheries dispute that has
arisen there between the Newfoundlanders
and the French fishermen. There is serious
talk of the organization Of volunteer
force and the erection of Notifications, and
the ST. John Herald goes so far as TO say
that England must fight France or abandon
her British-AmerIcan possessions.
The aggressive position the Newfound-
Ianders have taken is not justified by the
circumstances. Under the treaty OF Utrecht,
in 1713, France has exclusive fishing
rights to about one-third of the coast of
Newfoundland, and has exercised them
for us years. Not only this, but it is ad-
mitted that 1t is not unusual for English
men of war to order off English fishermen
found fishing on this part of the coast, thus
admitting the French claim.
England is not acting hastily in the mat
ter, and is not likely to be persuaded by
Newfoundland and Canada to violate SOL
emn treaty. When the treaty was made
England reserved everything which she
thought of present or future value, and
threw to France a small bone in the shape
of fishing rights, which were
then considered of about as much value as
would now be placed ON the privilege to
fish around the North Pole. Newfoundland
enacted a law detrimental to the interests
Of the French fishermen, and failing in &C
comprising her objects in that, she got
mad, and now will have nothing short of
war
Newfoundland is more favorably situated
for carrying on the fisheries than any
other country. being close to the most
prolific fishing grounds in the world, with
cheap labor and vessels, and long estab-
lished connection with the principal mar
kets of the world. There is no reason why
her people should not prosecute the business
as successfully as Americans or
Canadians. England has not.
and will not, act arbitrarily
in the matter. Newfoundland can gain
nothing by agitation or by admittance into
the United States or by joining Canada.

WILL MAKEA TEST.
Arrests Likely to be Made for
the Violation of the Mon
tana Lottery Law.
The Louisiana Concern Will
Try to Purchase the Mon
tana Lottery Company.

HELENA. Mont, Special Telegram,
1t lis possible that in short time some
arrests will be made for the violation of the
lottery law, and a test case made either in
the Silver Bow or Lewis and Clarke courts
1t is well known fact that lotteries are
openly conducted in Montana, and the
business of selling lottery tickets is extern
sively carried on, though both appear to
be prohibited by law. Section 2, article 10
OF the Montana constitution reads:
The legislative assembly shall have no power
to authorize lotteries or gift enterprises for any
purpose and shall pass laws to prohibit the
sale of lottery or gift enterprise tickets in this
state.
This would in itself seem to prohibit the
conducting of lotteries or sale OF tickets, as
ton repeats all territorial laws in conflict
with its provisions. At the last session of
the territorial legislature a law was passed
prohibiting lotteries in Montana. This
law contains one section providing that lot
teries existing prior to the passage Of the
act, and having advertised drawings to
take place after May l, 1889, the date at
which the law took effect, should on that
date place their affairs in the hands Of re-
ceiver appointed by the court, who would
finish up the business. Last May
the Montana lottery placed their
business in the hands of receiver
and have been continuing it in that way
ever since. claiming, it is said, that the law
permits this. The intent of the law was
evidently to prohibit all lotteries and not
to allow but one drawing after the first of
last May. If the lottery company are right
they will be allowed to operate until further
legislation on the subject. What lends in
terest to this question at present is that it is
reported that the Louisiana lottery
schcmers, who were knocked out in North
Dakota. are negotiating to buy out the Mon
tana Lottery company so as to gain foot
hold in this state. This is but rumor and
lacks confirmation, yet many believe it in
view of the boast Of the lottery schemers
that if they were defeated in North Dakota
they would try to work Montana. Further
developments are expected in few days.

BESTED KILRAIN.
Corbett Stands Before the Baltimor-
can for Six Rounds.


can for Six Rounds.
New ORLEANS, Special.-J. ]. Corbett,
teacher of the Olympian club at San Fran
cisco, bested Jake Kilrain in a six-round
contest for purse of s., 500, at the Southern
Athletic club rooms tonight. Kilrain had
agreed to knock Corbett out in six rounds
but was outtought at every point. Corbett
is giant youngster, we'll educated, ambi-
tious, and is regarded in the West as the
coming worlds champion. Hin has never
been defeated. Kilrain was in fine
trim up to Thursday night, but the
death of James at Dallas, Tex, unnamed
him somewhat. according to Prof. Muldoon.
Benziah, who was implicated in the james
affair, defeated Johnson in four rounds.
Mike Cleary whipped Mike Smith, the Gin
cinnati heavy weight, in two rounds. The
club rooms were especially fitted
up for the matches and a large
number of spectators were present.
Kilrain stated his weight varied between
scales at 1873 pounds. Although Corbett is
six feet one and one-half inches tall, he
looked mere boy compared with
seconded Kflrain and Tony Dan,
forth and Mike smito were behind
Corbett. George Scott was bottlehOlder and
E. b. Violet referee. Both men spared
for an opening, watching each others
style Corbett carried his left loosely. while
his right held guard. Kilrain tried
his rushing tactics, but Corbett was
tao lively for him. The referee de-
cided at the end of the sixth rounn
that Corbett had outfought Kilrain through
out. Kilrain says his defeat by Corbett is
due to the fact that all mitigating was

could tip and get away. Kilrain would
like to box him ten rounds with tive-ounce
gloves, but would prefer finish fight with
light gloves.

SMITH ALL RIGHT.
One Way Of Proving Man Innocent
of a CHARGE.

Of a Charge.
WASHINGTON, Special Telegram,
The North Dakota delegation was sur
prised to-day by the withdrawal of the
name of John A. Percival for receiver of the
Devils Lake, N. D., land office. They knew
nothing of the matter until the message
came to the senate with the list OF appoint
ments. Percival was confirmed Friday last,
but Secretary Noble went to the senate and
asked that the confirmation be reconsid-
cred, which was done. To-day followed
the withdrawal. Receiver Smith, the pres
ent incumbent of the office, was among the
number who were recently charged with
being short in their accounts and Percival
was appointed to succeed him. Since then
the secretary has been informed that Smith
was all right and by way of vindcation
wanted to prove his innocence and then re-
sign. The secretary, in order to put Smith
right, has held up Percival and continued
Smith. Senator Pierce says:
Mr.. Smith was removed by the secretary of
short in his accounts, and Mr.. Percival was ap-
pointed, the latter having been recommended
for the place when q vacancy should occur. Il
now turns out that the clerk in charge of ac-
counts was wrong, and that the removal OF Mr.
Smith under such charges was an injustice I
would not approve of such an act, and / am
sure that Mr.. Percival would not. The latter's
that whatever may be done in the future NAV
be entirely independent of the charge preferred
against Mr.. Smith. The secretary telegraphed
the facts to-day to Mr.. Percival.

HALF-BREEDS HADAGRUDGE.
A Hardware Man Numerically Bea
ten in Fort Pierre.

PIERRE, S. D., Special Telegram
boomers continued to cross the river all
night last night and the scene at Fort Pierre
has been very exciting. Building was done
by the light of the lantern, and large
number of fights took place. About mid
night fight took place between number
of half breed DULLES and a fellow called
Jesse James, who took over load of hard
ware and started a store in tent. The
halfbreeds have grudge against him, and
assaulted him. He was numerically
beaten about the head and face
with the butt end of a six-shooter.
His nose was smashed and he was danger
ously wounded in the head. He was car
ried over to Pierre this morning in an I'M
conscious condition. Revolvers were flour
ished and firing continued all night, but no
one was shot. About twenty-five houses
were up by this morning. The citizens have
formed vigilance committee, and claim.
jumpers will be seriously dealt with.
FURTHER COMPLICATIONS.
A man named Wolgemath is also bad y
hurt, and number of others were said
bagged and hurt in the general melee. A
A public meeting was held at Fort Pierre,
and committees were appointed to
organize the county and city, and
for various other purposes, in
Guiding one to confer with North
western railway regarding the conflicting
claims of the road and settlers who now
occupy every foot of the mile square. A
vigilance committee went to a widow
named Evans, who had moved house on
to a lot which, she claimed. had been
jumped by man named Mckee, and Or
dered her to move the building at
once or they would do it tor her.
She defied them, and to-day mob bodily
lifted the house of and set it in the street.
A car containing prominent Northwestern
officials came in tonight, and they will at
once take means to enforce their claims as
owners OF the mile square. This will still
farther complicate matters, and will surely
lead to trouble. Men who were at the
opening OF Oklahoma say the disorder on
that occasion was small compared With
what can now be seen here.

NOT ONE MIND.
Difference Of Opinion as to a Reduce
ton In the Revenues.

Difference Of Opinion as to a Reduce
ton In the Revenues.
WASHINGTON, =, Special Telegram,
The committee on ways and means are
finding it very difficult to agree on any
other reduction of the revenues than that
to be accomplished by the repeal of the to-
bacco tax. The majority of the COMMITTEES
are in favor of free sugar, but they meet
with opposition in their party in the house,
which threatens the defeat of their bill if it
includes this item. They are having q
deal of trouble over this question, but
one OF the most perplexing features Of
the situation bis that there is considerable
doubt about the fiscal affairs of the govern
ment admitting of any reduction of revenue
at this time. The regular appropriations
and the differences for the ensuing year will
amount to about $3.50, 600, 600, and the esti-
mated revenues for that year are but $780,
100000: The passage OF the Blair bill, or
any OF the proposed general pension bills,
IVY and leave shortage. II any OF these
bills become law, all idea of re-
ducing the revenue must be
abandoned. and the only reductions of
duties practicable would he such US would
operate t. increase revenue by encouraging
lmpOrtatlOnS. The friends of sugar in the
house opposing the repeal of the duty pro-
pose to accept reduction of between 20
end 80 per cent as compromise, urging
that the government cannot spare the
revenue which would be wiped out by
putting it on the free list, and it is possible
that there may be compromise ON this
basis. 1t is also claimed that the repeal of
the tobacco tax is probable unless it is
found that the revenue cannot be spared.
This is based on the fact that
certain Southern Republicans have
said that they would not sup
port any tariff bill if the tax on tobacco was
not removed. To this proposition the
Northwestern members strongly dissent.
They will not, if they can help it, vote for
any bill that repeats the tobacco tax. A
great many Western men are OF the opinion
that the revenue derived from the tobacco
tax may be protitably expended in improv-
ing rivers aud harbors and erecting neccs-
sary public buildings. The necessary re-
auctions Of the surplus, many claim,
should be made upon the necessarles rather
than the luxuries, even if it would allow
more importations. The majority of the
committee will find it serious task to
frame satisfactory tariff bill.
