PILGRIM WORKINGMEN
TWO THOUSAND FRENCH TOILERS
VISIT ROME. "a
Twenty Thousand in All Expected to Pay
Their Respects to the Pope-The Pill
grims Given a Cordial Reception by
HIS Holiness at st. Peters.

ROME, Sept. 19.-The pope today, in
the vestibule of st. Peters, received the
first contingent OF the pilgrimage of
French workmen, which has been re-
Gently arranged. The pilgrims today
numbered 1000. 1t is expected that in
all 10000 workmen will make
the pilgrimage to express to the
pope their gratitude for his
recent encyclical. Cardinal Langenieux,
who headed the pilgrims read short
address to the pope, who responded in a
short speech, in which he expressed
happiness that the encyclical had con-
tributed to the elevation of the work
ingmen. He also urged that work
men be diligent and docile; to
avoid perverse men, especially those
coming under the names OF Socialist,
whose object is to overthrow social
order to your detriment."
He advocated the formation of work
mems associations under the guidance
and patronage of bishops. He con-
cluded as follows; "Give your children
a moral and Christian education, that
you may receive through them and by
wise thrift tranquil future"
The pope spoke nearly half an hour.
His health is apparently better than it
has been for some time. He was slightly
exhausted, however, at the conclusion ol
his address, but strong enough to receive
the leaders of the pilgrims after his
speech.

RACE FOR HOMESTEADS.
EXCITEMENT GROWING HOURLY IN
OKLAHOMA.
Negro Colonists Having Lively Time
Between Hostile Indians and Des-
perate Cowboys-Blacks Eligible to
Settlement as Well as Whites.

GUTHRIE, o. T., Sept. 19.-Excite-
ment grows hourly greater among the
people who will make race for homes
in the Indian lands next Tuesday.
There are several causes for the excite
ment, chief among them being the large
by hundreds at Langston, the Oklahoma
negro colony, and who intend to move

new lands, and settle there to
the exclusion of all other settlers.
Many white settlers, among them being
numbers of desperate and unscrupulous
cowboys, object to the negroes plans,
and will take desperate chances to pre-
empt the choice claims in the very face
OF the negro hosts. The most desperate
say they will oppose by force the whole
sale settlement of negroes in the val
ley. Cooler heads, however. know that
the race will be to the swift, no matter
what his color. If the negroes get there
first, the landnis theirs. If the whites
outrun the negroes, the latter must look

Another cause of excitement is the
hatred of the Indians for the negroes.
The Sacs and Foxes claim that their
lands were sold to the government un-
der the distinct agreement that they
were to be opened to 'white settle
ment." The Cimarron valley includes
portion OF their lands, and between

time of it.
Still another cause for excitement is
the uncertainty as to Just what lands
may be claimed by the ordinary settler.
A settler may have a successful race for
certain section OF land, and may claim
it, but when he goes to the land Office to
file his claim, he may find he has
claimed an Indians allotment or an old
soldiers pre-emption.
The land office here is besieged by
veterans or their representatives. They
have formed long line which stretches
from the door three or four squares. In
the line are several old soldiers and
many spectators who have purchased
! for trifling sum the declaratory state
ments OF old soldiers, and wis sell them
to the highest bidder. Others have
taken places IN the line simply to sell
them to some less fortunate persons.
Out on the border there is little ex-
element. 1t is restless expectancy there

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-The secretary
of the interior has instructed the regis
trars and receivers of the land offices at
Oklahoma City and Guthrie, that the
words white settlement" in the Sac

under the laws of the United States

THE ITATA,s BONDS.
An Official Explanation of the Appoint
ment of Appraisers.


WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-The appoint
ment OF appraisers at San Diego, CAL,
to appraise the Chilean steamer Itata
was made go as to allow the
owners or other persons interested
to furnish bond for her appear
ance, should the case against her
be called for trial. Assent to this course
was given by Attorney-G General Miller.
The vessel being bonded, her bondsmen
will be responsible for the amount given
if the vessel should fail to turn up when
the trial begins, and the vessel in the
meanwhile can be used for some pur-
pose instead of being compelled to stay
at the wharf idle. This is the rule fol-
lowed by the courts in admiralty
cases, except when vessel is seized for
violation of the neutrality laws, when if
the seized vessel were released sine
could resume the very work she was
seized for attempting to do. All the
conditions having been passed in the
case of the Itata, owing to the victory Of
the insurgent party in Chilli, there
could not be any objection to the release
of the vessel on bond. The bonding OF
the vessel, as contemplated, has no
other significance than that above in
dicated.

Associated Press Dispatches.

CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-Another social
sensation to which Miss Gertrude w.
Potter, daughter of 0. w. Potter, the
millionaire president of the Illinois
Steel company, is a party, developed
this afternoon. At the residence of her
parents, in the Virginia apartment
house, today she was married to Julius
Clark Daniels, OF New York city. The
groom is the son of George Daniels, gem
eral passenger agent of the New York
Central railroad. The bride and groom
left for the east this afternoon.
The wedding adds another sensation
to the recent developments concerning
Miss Potter. Following the announce
ment of her secret divorce from +. Lee
Rust, son of wealthy Eau Claire, Wis,
lumberman, the other day. comes to-
days wedding. An authorized state
ment made for the family this afternoon
adds a heretofore unknown feature to
the affair. The statement says: ION
December 81, 1889, Julius Clark Daniels
secured license in Chicago, under the
name of Julius Clark, to marry Ger
trude Whiting Potter, under the name OF
GertrudeWhite. The couple were married
January, 1890, by Rev. r. A. John, pas
tor of st. PauPs church, Chicago. The
parties continued to live at their re-
spective homes. Subsequently Miss
Potter submitted to legal counsel the
question of the validity of her marriage
with Daniels, and was advised and be-
lieved suchImarriage invalid. They then
informed f. Lee Rust of the ceremony
performed between herself and Daniels,
and OF her subsequent advice thereon
Thereupon Rust and Miss Potter, both
parties believing they had right to do
so, had marriage ceremony performed
on June 9th last, at Lake Geneva,
Wis, by Rev. M. j. Ward. Both cere-
monies were secret and unknown to the
parents OF any of the parties concerned.
The ceremony OF June 9th was first
made known to the parents by its publi-
cation some days ago. At that time
they were also informed OF the previous
ceremony with Daniels" -
The statement then gives the details
of the application for and the decree OF
annulment of the marriage with
young Rust four days ago by
Judge Horton, and concludes as
follows: "No actual necessity existed
for any court decree annulling the mar
riage, which in fact was said, but
decree was secured for the reason that
the interest of all concerned made it
proper under the circumstances stated"

Is RELL INNOCENT :?
New Evidence at Hand as to the Jacob
son Murder.

New EV10enc0 at as W bho
son Murder.
SAN Francisco, Sept. 19.-Last Feb
ruary Samuel Jacobson, a merchant OF
this city, was mysteriously shot in or
near his residence, late at night. Be-
fore he died he stated that he was shot
by footpads, but it was widely believed
that this was untrue. Some months
after Edward Campbell was arrested on
another charge of robbery, and on prom
ise of immunity from prosecution, con-
fessed that he and man named Sid
ney Bell had attempted to rob Jacob
son. The latter resisted and was shot
by Bell. Bell was arrested, tried and
convicted on the testimony of Campbell
and Charles Schmidt, who had been Bells
accomplice in other robberies. Bell is
now awaiting sentence. The Chronicle
tomorrow will state that Schmidt has
made confession, stating that all his
testimony at the trial was false, and ex-
pressing his belief in Bells innocence.
Henley and Swift, Bells attorneys, say
they now have witness named Harry
Kennedy on the way from the east who
knows all the facts OF the murder.a He
will swear that the murder was COM
mitted in Jacobson's house by gam
bier named Mac Schwartz who had been
visiting Jacobson's sister. jacobson
forbade him the house, and finding him
there on the night of the murder, a
struggle ensued, which ended by
Schwartz shooting jacobson, infiicting
fatal wound. Campbell has been re-
leased, and his whereabouts are un-
known

thought he will be able to travel in two
or three days, when he will be taken to
Tacoma. He tells the story of his fight
and capture, which does not differ ma
terially from the accounts already pub
lished. He still refuses to talk concern
ing the robbery of the bank and all eff
forts to get information from him have
proved unavailing.

DAKOTA FIELD FIRES.
Thousands of Acres of Wheat Burned
Many Farms Ruined.

JAMESTOWN, N. D., Sept. 19.-The ter
rible heat Of the past few days has
scorched every stubble field and range
in the state, until the faintest spark is
sufficient to start an almost un-
quenchable fire, and intense anxiety
exists over danger in this
county. Over 81 1000, 900 worth OF wheat
lies exposed to the fire, which may be
ignited from the slightest cause. From
Emmons county comes the report OF
disastrous fires, but the mails have been
delayed and the exact amount of damage
is not known. Wiliamsport was saved
from destruction by sudden change in
the wind. Near Lisbon thousands of
acres of wheat have been destroyed.
Small fires have already ruined many
farms in the Jim river valley. Reports
OF small fires are coming in hourly.

RA1N-MAKERs DISCOURAGED.
The Atmosphere Rombarded in Vain at
El PasO.

Ell PAso, Tex, Sept. 19.-Although
the government rRin-makers kept their
bombardment up for twenty-four hours,
no rain has fallen, and at this writing
even the rain-makers themselves have
almost abandoned hope. The failure,
if it is a failure, is attributed only
to the unfavorable conditions under
which the experiments were made.
After the bombardment thick clouds
formed, and lightning was seen
in the distance, but the ex-
pected rain failed to come. The only
encouraging phenomenon was heavy
dew this morning, the ground and grass
in the park being fairly dripping with
water. This is is unprecedented here.
Parties arriving here from the surround
ing country report heavy rains.
