OFFICER LIGHTFOoT's ARREST.

Conflicting Stories to His Treatment OF
the Prisoner-A Warrant Out for Him.
Policeman John Lightfoot of the second Pre-
cinct denies that he brutally assaulted pris-
oner who he had under arrest near 4th and
Ridge streets Christmas afternoon as alleged
by Mr.. E. 7. DAVIS of No. 400 New York avenue.
whose complaint was published in Saturday g
STAR. The statements of the witnesses to the
arrest differ to the ACT Of the officer, as well
as to the justification for his act.
The officer says his attention was attracted
to a large crowd by cries Of police and
help" and that when he reached the crowd
he arrested two young men. Clifton Stewart
and Robert Lavender, both of whom were
drunk There had been a fight previous to
the arrest, SO he was informed, in which the
two men named and Will Bell participated.
Stewart had evidently been worsted in that
Of violence. When he arrested the two young
men Lavender was perfectly willing to go. but
Stewart resisted and struck him in the mouth,
drawingblood. The officer says he has witnesses
to prove this. After Stewart struck him he let
Lavender go and he says that he (the officer
struck Stewart one blow on the side of his head
with his fist. He says that when he grabbed
Stewart and attempted to pull him from a tree
the latter fell down. Stewart he added, for
feited IS in the Police Court the next morning
anu ne ttue OluceHJ pIOcuEtu WarIduts lOE Dell
and Lavender, and he also procured one for
John NJ. Boyd, who he says was responsible for
most Of the trouble.
Mr.. G. D. Jackson, who keeps a grocery store
at 4th and Ridge streets, corroborates what the
officer says, and makes it appear even worse for
the young mems side of the affair, He says he
saw the first of the trouble, when the third party
kicked Stewart in the face. Both men. he says,
assaulted the officer and had not the latter pro-
tected himself he would have been mobbed.
Mr.. James d. Boyd, who lives at 1925 4th
street, tells q different story. He says that the
young men we're drunk and had had some
trouble. One of them tried to kick another
one in the face, but did not succeed. When
the officer came along, he said, he grabbed the
young man (Stewart) and pulled him down be-
fore the latter had made any resistance and
struck him while he was down.
Mr.. Martin Leese, jr.. said TO STAR reporter
that he witnessed the arrest He saw the Off
Ger arrest the man and pull him, but he saw no
blows struck.
Several men, who were present at the time,
state that the officer was too lenient with the
men, and they thought he should have treated
Stewart worse than he did.
Mr.. Bertram Stewart, father Of the young
man, has sworn out a warrant, charging the
officer with assault and the whole affair will be
ventilated in the Police Court tomorrow.

p.triotic Citizen. Aroused.

BrRx1sGHAM, Conn, July l2-Hunting-
ton Center is still greatly agitated over the
action of the sexton and warden of st.
Paul,s Episcopal church in having 0lin P.
Shelton arrested for ringing the church
bell on July 4. and the sexton and warden
are subjected to much ridicule. All patri-
otic citizens and all the women and girls
of the town are on Shelton's side. The first
outburst occurred this morning when the
proprietors of the town hall informed the
warden that the church could never again
rent the hall for any purposes unless the
charges against Shelton were withdrawn.
The next shot came from the young ladies
of the church, who are friends of Shelton
and who informed the pastor they would
never again assist in church entertain
ments unless the charge was withdrawn.
Then the village barber said he would
never again shave the warden or sexton
unless the charges were Withdrawn. As q
consequence the warden has Withdrawn
the complaint, but the sexton IS still OBJ
durate. Shelton is out on bail and is re-
ceiying congratulatory letters and tele-
grams. and offers of help from lawyers.

ASPEN, Colo, July IA horrible rail-
road accident occurred at Aspen junction,
on the Midland road, last night.
special train was backing from the
water tank to the switch, on the Aspen
track, when the rear end of the passenger
coach crashed into the engine coming out
from the roundhouse. The check valve
on the side OF the boiler was broken off
and the hot wafer and steam poured into
the broken end of the passenger car, hor-
ribly scalding thirteen passengers, five
men, seven women and on echild.
All that was possible was done to relieve
the sufferings of the unfortunates. but Mr..
and Mrs. A. B. Rogers, of Woodry, Colo; /;
Miss Annie Phelan, of Teardiff, Colo. !;
Mrs. W. l. Willoby, of Glenwood, Colo. !;
Mrs. John G. Baldwin, of Glenwood;
Frank Ellis. of Aspen, Colo, and a baby
have already died, and others are in q
critical condition.
The disaster was probably due to an er-
ror of judgment on the part of the hostler
in bringing the engine out from the round
house. He thought he had clear main
track before the passenger train reached
him, and was pushing the engine at high
rate of speed Just at the coal chutes he
struck the rear corner of the passenger
coach, tearing hole in II and ripping the
valve from the engine Torrents of scald-
ing steam and water poured in upon the
victims, and of twenty-five passengers in
the coach. three colored men in the forward
apartment were the only ones who es-
capped without injury.
Tonight the remainder of the injured
are resting quietly, with good chances of
recovery

Strength and Wealth of the Hostiles
Great-Cattlemen Alarmed.

SAN FRAScIsco, Jelly 12.-fSpecial. THE
Chronicles Flagstaff special says that
during this month the Navajo Indians
have been acting in a defiant manner
toward the whites, and it is the general
belief that they were only waiting for a
favorable opportunity to drive the cattle
men from their range
A courier just arrived here from Little
Colorado, thirty miles northeast. with the
intelligence that band of 600 Nayaioes
has taken possession of stock on William
Roden's range, driving the herders from
the range and slaughtering large num-
Der of cattle.
The Indians are well armed and can
get large reinforcements from the reserva-
ton.
Sheriff Francis will leave for the scene
of the trouble tomorrow morning with
thirty-n nine added cowboys to arrest the
leaders Of the band. If Francis fails to ar
rest the chiefs and get the Indians back on
the reservation. the war department will
be appealed to and troops will probably
be ordered out. The Navajos are the larg-
est tribe in the territory, there being about
5000 of them, and they are well fixed
financially

HEAVY RAINFALL IN DAKOTA.
Many Bridges Washed Away, but Good
Crops the Result.

STop8 the Rcsult.
ST. PAUL, July 12.-Pioneer Press: Spe-
cials from various points in North Dakota
report heavy rains during the past twenty
four and forty-eight hours, which caused
many washouts on railroads and much
destruction to property. A special from
Mandan, N. D., says: Between three and
four hundred westbound passeng-
ers on the Northern Pacific were
stopped here today. Tremendous rains
last night and this morning washed out
large number of small bridges and cul-
verts and portions of track west of here.
All the bridges gone are small ones, those
of Heart river being all intact. Heart
river is running bank full, and has been
rising during the afternoon. In town
most of the sidewalks are floating along
the streets. A number of cellars are full
and good deal of damage has been done.
The rain extended from west of Mendora
to jamestown and poured in torrents for
several hours. This supposed arid region
has enough rain to insure a bounteous
CROP
DICKINSON, \. D., July I2.-The reports
of the rain last night are worse than at
first supposed. Crews of track repairers
have been working all day repairing heavy
washouts. West-bound passengers cannot
arrive here before Monday. Streams are
rising rapidly and it has commenced to
rain again. Farmers will sustain heavy
damage from lodged grain.

DEATH OF EDWARD BURGESS.
Designer OF the Famous Yachts Puritan
and Mayfiower.

DcsISuGF Oh the II 3mOu8 acnI8 IuT1E3n
and Mayfiower.
BosToN, July I2.-Edward Burgess, the
noted yacht designer, died here this after
noon of typhoid fever, aged 43 years. He
was born at West Sandwich, Mass, June
30, 1s4s, graduated from Harvard in 1871,
and in 1888 that college conferred upon
him the degree of A. NJ. He was instructor
of entomology at Harvard for some years,
his increasing business in yacht designing
compelling him finally TO resign the posi-
ton. For fifteen years he was secretary
of the Society of Natural History of Bos-
ton. He leaves wife and two sons.
tWhile travelling in Europe Mr.. Burgess
studied the principles of naval architecture in
an amateur way, bringing his knowledge and
judgment to the practical test OF designing and
building vessels for his own use. His success
in this line was so marked that when, in 1883,
reverse of fortune threw him upon his own re-
sources for livelihood, he naturally
turned to the designing of sailing yachts.
Several of his boats won fame in
Eastern waters. When, in 1854. it became neces-
sary to build large sloop-yacht to represent the
United States in q series of international races,
he was se ected by a committee of Boston gen.
tlemen to draw plans for q suitable vessel. The
famous slooP Puritan was the result,
and in the contest for the Ameri-
cas- cup in 1855 she defeated all competi-
tors, including the fine English cutter Genesta,
which had crossed the ocean to enter the con-
test This was a remarkable triumph in view Of
the fact that il was the first attempt OF an Amer
lean designer to solve certain shipbuilding
problems to which Englishmen had given their
attention for score of years. In
the following season Mr.. Burgess
brought out the Mayfower, sloop
slightly larger than the Puritan, and the
Saehem, large schooner-yacht, that has shown
remarkable seagoing qualities. During the sea-
son of 1856 the Mayfiower easily defeated not
only all American vessels of her class, but dis
tanced the English cutter Gslatea, which had
come ovsr in the hope of redeeming the Gen.
esta's defeat OF the preceding year.

VIOLATION OF A CONSULATE.
Consul Charles Heath Commanded Not
tn Close His ONCE.

WAsHINGToN CRY, July 12.-The facts in
the case of the rumored violation of the
United States consulate at Catamia, Sicily,
have not been learned at the state depart
ment The lawsuit was entered against
Consul Charles Heath and the authorities
entered the consulate in serving the pro-
cess. Heath regarded this an infringe
ment of his rights and recommended to
the department of state that the consulate
be closed. The charge d'atfaires at Rome
reported by cable that the authorities
assured him no further steps would be
taken until he had ample opportunity to
investigate. Further, that the process
was served in the private part of the con-
sulate. and therefore was no violation of
the sanctity of the consulate. Heath was
therefore instructed by the department
not to close the consulate under any cir
cumstances.
