BURCHELL Is ARRESTED.
Developments in the BenweIl Muir
der Case.

uGF SdSes
NIAGARA FALLS, Ont, March 2.-J.
Burchell, who identified the body of the
murdered man found near Princeton,
Ont, as that of F. G. Benwell, of Lon
don, England, was arrested here this
morning on suspicion of being the mur-
derer. Beuwell, BurchelI and wife, and
RyOung man named PelleY formed az Eli
gliSh party which came to America on the
steamer Britannia. All came here sub
sequently. Benwell is alleged to have
gone West. and Pelley went to New
York, and was expected back last night.
All trains from New York were watched
closely, in order to intercept young
Peiley. and when the Erie flyer arrived
this morning he was taken to Police
Magistrate HIPS Office, where private
consultation was held, after which
Burchell was arrested. being found
at Baldwih's boarding house.
The police are confident that they have
the right man. 1t is understood that
something happened while the party
were at Buffalo that will throw cOnsid-
cradle light upon the mystery. Pelley
was seen. but declined to be inter-
viewed. as he had promised the authori-
ties that he would not say anything. 1t
has been learned since the arrest that
Burchell was in this place one year ago,
accompanied by his wife, the same
woman who is with him now, and
stopped at the Imperial hotel, register
ing as Mr.. and Mrs. Somerset. They
arrived at midnight and remained day
or two. Upon their return Oh Feb. 10,
last. they went to the same hotel. The
proprietor recognized them. They re-
newed their acquaintance, but Somerset
said that ON account OF his good family
connections and his coming on this trip
to trade horses, he took the hame of
Burchell and wished to be called and
known by that alias. Burchell is
dark-compleXioned and about thirty
years of age. His wife is slender,
q rather pleasant-faced blonde,
and has the appearance of being a high
ly educated, refined English lady. Pei
ley is about twenty-five years old. He
has fair complexion and is well edu-
Gated and refined. He is said to be the
son of clergyman in England. When
asked If he had known Burchell any
length of time before he left England,
he said not long, but that he knew Mrs.
Burchell's family well. Mrs. Burchell
feels her position keenly, crying most OF
the time, and at times reaching hyster.
les. Burchell will be brought up TO-
morrow morning.

THE OHERoKEE STRIP.
Boomers Are Arriving i'm Great
Numbers.

GUTHRIE, Ind. Ter, March 2.--Ths
prospects of an early delivery of the
Cherokee strip to home seekers is
attracting large number of BOOM
ers. Walnut river from Arkansas
City to the northern boundary OF the
S rip. is already lined with boomers, and
arrivals occur every day. The rush
into Cherokee land will equal that into
Oklahoma. AT this place and the
southern boundary strip the boomers
are beginning to arrive in great num-
bers. choosing the banks of the Cot
tOnwOOd river as a temporary home
stead. The recent ''nOrther" with its
severe cold caused some suffering among
the poorly-hOused people, but no fatal
tiles are reported. The boomers who
camped around Guthrie will have
double chance of securing tree land
one chance at Cherokee strip and
one at Iowa reservation. The Iowa
Indians recently determined to take up
land in severalty and sell the remainder
of their reservation to the government.
When the Indians have taken the
allotted amount of land there will re.

ST, PAUL IS INTERESTED.
Public Building Bills Made q
House Special Order.

WASHINGTON, March 2.-Congress ap-
parently has settled down to strictly
business basis, and is making rapid pro-
gress in the consideration and dispOsi-
lion of legislation. The senate will
duplicate this week, to great extent,
? the programme Of last week. 1t is hoped
vote will be reached on the Blair bill.
In case vote is reached before the end
of the week, Mr.. Sherman will move to
have his bill. declaring trusts to be un-
lawful, taken up for discussion. He
will be antagonized by Mr.. Frye, who,
under instructions from the committee
reporting the measure, will ask that the
Pacific railroad funding bill be made the
order of the day. This contest for posi-
ton will occur whenever the educa-
tional bill is out of the way-if not this
week, then later. The outlook in the
house is for week devoid of interest
ing proceedings in comparison with
what has gone before. The election
contest of Featherstone VS.. Cate will
probably be pushed to conclusion Mon
day. Tuesday and Wednesday are set
apart by special order for action upon
public bniIding bills. The pension ap-
preparation bill may come up about the
middle of the week.

an hour and half, the last four rounds

it draw, with the unwilling consent of
the men. Both weighed 1l815 pounds.
but Ward had two inches the advantage
in height, with reach in proportion.
Both men showed nerve, quickness and
science. The Kid did most of the lead
ing at the start and cut Wards mouth,
hammering at the wounded member
when he got chance. Ward was
unable 10 hit hard with his left. He
has a terrific right for featherweight,
but swung 1t often in vain. In the sew

on Wards mouth, the latter grew des
perate and fought back hard at close
quarters. His length of reach and his
strong right told, and at the end of

will not bring suit until Mr.. Atkinson

managers are perfectly satisfied to make

they could have had quorum voting

in order to decide the question definitely
they allowed Mr.. Atkinson to take his
