BUTTE, Mont, Sept. 16.-The jury in
the Matthews estate case, which has
been occupying the attention of the
district court several days, returned a
verdict for the applicant, Martha G.
Bordan. In its special findings the
jury declared that James Matthews
and Reni. Shasta souaw. were
married according to the In
dian custom and lived together
as man and wife, and that claimant was
living together. This suit was brought
to secure portion of the Matthews es-
tate. which is now valued at $500, 600.
When Matthews died he left his estate
to his sisters children. but Mrs. Bordan
came forward and claimed the estate,
or portion of it, upon the ground that
she was daughter of deceased by an
Indian wife whom he had married in
California in 1856. The specific thing
sought to be gained by the
suit was the possession of 5000

the points settled here will be applica-
bic to the entire state. Plaintiff claimed
that she was the daughter of deceased,
and that he had been married to her
mother according to the customs of her
tribe. The opposition claimed that de-
ceased bought the Indian woman, that
there was no thought of marriage in

her story, and the first part of the case
ends in sweeping victory for ner.

MILES CITY, Mont, Sept. 16. 6.-The
most thrilling fight known to Indian
warfare in the West was that which re-
suited in the death of Head Chief and
Young Mule at the Tongue River agency
yesterday afternoon, brief reference to
which was made in last nights dis
patches. On Sunday the father of Head
Chief came to Agent Cooper and en-
deavored to negotiate the surrender of
the fugitives and secure immunity from
punishment by giving up number
of ponies. He said they were in
the hills and could not be taken.
The agent refused to negotiate, saying
the government did not treat murderers
in that way. Finding his efforts fruit
less, the father said the two savages
would come into the agency and make a
fight; that he would go out and help
them put on their war bonnets and tie
up their ponies tails, procedure Incl
dent to going into battle, and that the
soldiers had better look out, as the boys
would fight to the death. A place was
indicated from which they would come,
and troops and Indian police were
drawn up to await them. Sure enough,
in about half an hour the
two renegades were seen coming
at full speed in war paint and
feathers. They charged along the full
length of the line occupied by troops
and police, shooting and yelling like
demons. The soldiers fired volley or
two in return. but failed to do any dam
age. AS soon as the Indians were out
of range they turned and rode back
again like whirlwind, and repeating
the attack, and, as before, escaped with
out damage. They then started to
climb the hill in front of the
troops. and when halfway up
a chance shot from the mil
itary hit Young Mules pony, and
brought him to the ground, leaving
Young Mule. dismounted. Head Chief
then turned and rode down the hill at a
terrific pace. making directly for the
line of troops and police, meanwhile fir
ing his Winchester as rapidly as posi-
bic. 1t is reported that the line of bat
tie wavered and broke, but just before
Head Chief penetrated it he fell,
shot twice through the forehead
and once in the mouth. be-
ing killed instantly. Young Mule,
noting the fate of his companion, pre-
pared to follow. Chanting death song,
he started down the hill afoot, and was
charging directly into the line Of troops
when he was hit in the side. He at
once jumped into hole in the ground,
and fired one shot after getting under
cover. This was about O'Clock in the
afternoon, and hostilities ceaesd till
evening. when reconnaissance of
Young Mules rifle pit disclosed the
fact that he was dead, and had been for
some hours.

BosToN, Sept. 16.-A meeting of the
creditors of the Worcester Steel COM
pany was held to-day. George M. Rice.
president of the company, made a state
ment in which he attributed the trouble
to the suspension of the Potter-Lovell
company. He gave the appraisal of the
property, including the Worcester plant,
the coal mine and the iron mine as ag-
gregating S1,346,000, and stated that it
was proposed to form new corporation
under the name of the Worcester Steel,
Coal and Iron company limited. with a
capital of S1,000,000, under the laws of
Massachusetts,. A mortgage bond for
100000 would be made, rs per cent to
go to creditors, leaving 25 per cent to
pay for the erection of blast furnace
and equipping the coal mine. The COM
pany also proposes to give the creditors
% per cent on preferred stock to bear
per cent interest. Mr.. Rice presented
in detail statistic proofs that the COM
pany could meet its engagement and the
creditors would receive their pay in
full. After some discussion it appeared
to be the sentiment of the meeting that
it would not be advisable to force an as
Signment, and committee was ap-
pointed to investigate the company's af-
fairs and report. The meeting then adj

as to the proper dispositionzof this mat
ter. The question at issue was not
as to whether the assertions made in the
speech were true or false; it was a
question of the honor of the house
itself. Mr.sCannon, of Illinois, favored
the reference of the resolution to COM
mlttee in order that the house might

part of it. cited by the gentleman from
Tennessee (Mr. Enloe). would re-
main as part Of his remarks.
MIR. EnlOe, of Tennessee. suggested
that the gentleman from Illinois was
hardly the person to make reflections OH
another PERSONS unparliamentary Ian
guage. Mr.. Cannon retorted that he
had heard men who professed to be
holier than others speak in unparlia-
mentary language. He did not admire
the tone and temper of the gentleman
from Tennessee (Mr. McMillin). In
in hand that gentleman wanted to air
his chestnutty scold which he was al;
ways anxious to parade.
Mr.. McMillin-If 1 wanted to attack any
body, the gentleman before me offers as good
an opportunity for unparliamentary Ian
guage as any man living.
Mr. .Cannon-Whatever have said or done
unparliamentary is subject to the rules of
the house, and will be discussed, if it is
challenged.
After further debate Mr.. Enloe de-
manded the previous question upon his
resolution, which was so modified as to
be an expression on the part OF the
house that it

But He Will Hardly Make This

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-Representa-
tive Boothman, of Ohio, to-day intro
duced in the house a joint resolution
which, by title, provides for congress
sional districts in Ohio, and is also to
secure to the electors therein the light
to choose members 10 the Fifty-second
congress by congressional districts.
The long preamble recites the failure
of the state legislature to provide, in
the rediStricting act of March last, for
the inclusion of a large portion of Storrs
township, in Hamilton county. within
any congressional district; that the leg
islature has adjourned beyond election,
making legislative corrective action un-
attainable, and that any apportionment
scheme which omits part of the terri
tory of the state is null and void. The
resolution therefore proceeds to define
the boundaries of what shall constitute
the election districts of Ohio. following
in terms the provisions of the law in
force before the last gerrymander, eX-
cept in the case of the Second district
Gncluding Storrs township, which, it is
provided, shall be composed of the re-
mainder of Hamilton county not en-
braced within the First district The
last section requires the approaching
congressional elections to be held with
in the districts thus prescribed.

HAMILTON DROWNED.
Confirm alton of the Story of the
Finding of His Body.


LOUISVILLE, KY, Sept. 16.-Dr. j. o.
Green, of New York. arrived in Louis
vile last evening on short visit to his
friends and relatives. He has just re-
turned from Montana and the Yellow
stone National park, where it was
his sad misfortune to find the remains
OF Robert Ray Hamilton, who was
drowned in Snake river. DR.. Green
says that Mr.. Hamilton left his south
ern ranch at the end of Jackson lake, to
Nothing whatever was heard of
him until Sept 1, when word
came that Hamilton's horse and dog
had been found, the hindquarters of an
antelope being strapped to the saddle on
the horses back. Search was begun at
once. AT some distance below the camp
they found large pool of water. where
the river has comparatively little
current, and at the lower end of
this pool were two large pine
trees uproOted in the stream.
DIR. Green, who was somewhat ahead of
the boat and the men OH foot, called at
tentiOn to these trees. and suggested
that the body of the unfortunate man
might be found there. The bank of
this place was cut under by the stream,
and it was impossible to get very close
on horseback, but the footmen soon saw
the body close under the shelving
bank, and by the aid CT DIR. Green's
tether rope it was towed clear of the
brush, and brought near the shore.
Here, under the direction of DR.. Green.
large piece of canvas, used for camp
bedding, was passed under the corpse,
and it was then brought to the shore in
tact. IL had evidently been in the water
many days; the watch had stopped at
$50 O'Clock, and this, in connection
wirh the facts, showing the killing of
the antelope. indicates that Mr.. Hamil-
ton had spent some time in the chase,
river at night. He had probably OBJ
served a rock bar projecting some
forty yards in the river, but a
short distance above where DR..
Green had camped, and had been
tempted to seek ford there. He was
good swimmer, and had probably cast
himself loose from his horse and
attempted to swim ashore. There were
no marks of violence whatever on his
body, and he had small amount of
money in his pockets and belt
nearly full of cartridges around his
waist, and book of flies for trout fish
ing in his pocket. DR.. Green and his
party broke camp the next day, leaving
the body in the care of Sargent. with
whom Hamilton had business relations.
One of the members of DR.. Green's
party had Photographic camera, and
took views of the place selected for the
grave, which will be presented to the
Hamilton family.

soHwEINFURTH's CONVERTS
Bounced From a Christian Church
in Kentucky

LOUISVILLE, Sept. 16.-The elders of
the Christian church at Richmond, KY,
have expelled from membership l.. E.
Francis and wife and Miss Cornelia
Cornelison for heresy in believing in
the divinity of George Jacob Schwein-
furth. All three of these have been
very active in church work. The
Franchises are well-to-do, educated and
refined. They have always held a high
social position. and have given literally
to the support of their church. Some
time ago they accepted Schweinfurth.
and have made several trips to heaven
at Rockford, Iii. Then they began to
invite others to accept their faith. This
at once brought out active measures
against them. Charges were made. and
upon their trial they failed to appear,
and were expelled. Mrs. Francis wrote
lengthy defense in which she claimed
that her entire life was according to the
teachings OF the Bible, and that it is
stated Schweinfurth's claim has divine
sanction. 1t is stated Schweinfurth
will attempt to start colony at Rich
mOnd, and there are threats of serious
disturbance in case he attempts it.
