his retirement from public Office ex-
Senator John J. ingalls, has developed

thirty-acre tract of land south of his
residence i'll AtchiSon, Kan, and as soon
as spring weather permitted he began
turning 1t into large truck farm.
At present he is engaged in planting

lie spends several hours each day on
his farm, and seems greatly infatuated
with it.
He walks about the place attired in a
light suit of clothes and a long gray
oVercoat of forgotten vintage. He also
wears blood-red necktie and carries a
cane. He seldom visits Atchison's busi-
ness streets. bat when he does he drives
down III farmers spring wagon, trans

He refuses to talk politics to any one,
saying always that the burning question

MILBANK, SD. April 12.-The highly
sensational scandal report which was
published i'll the GLOBE this morning is
the all-absorbing topic in Mlbank,
which is shaken to its very foundation
by the shocking affair. Harry Hocum,
whose home has been so ruthlessIy
broken up, and who, with three young
children, is called upon to suffer the
disgrace of the wife and mother, is a
prominent merchant and an active
member Of the Methodist church. whose
pastor, Rev. William E. Clifford, has
disgraced himself and brought the
deepest sorrow upon the two families.
Your correspondent visited Clifford in
jail to-day, and when asked If he had
any statement to make, he answered that
he was utterly crushed and humiliated.
but that in the absence of his attorney
he could say nothing further than to
deny the charge in toto. Last night
Mr.. Hocum and the man who was with
him when Clifford and the erring wife
were caught, and who, at the point of
a revolver, marched the gay deceiver to
jail, sWore out complaint for adultery.
Clifford Will be arraigned Monday morn
ing and will probably waive preliminary
examination. 1t is questionable whether
he can procure bonds. His wife, who is
sick in bed, to-day wrote him very af-
fectionate letter, clinging to him with
Wifely devotion and refusing to believe
the horrible story. Clifford claims that
he can satisfactorily clear himself. but
circumstances are very strongly against
him. 10 your correspondent he said he
could bear the burden himself, but
keenSy felt the disgrace brought upon
his wife and the cause of Christianity.
He came here last fall from Chicago
and is bright and eloquent preacher.
Hocum was warmly attached to him as
friend, but for several weeks was
much annoyed by frequent daily visits
made by Clifford to his house during his
absence. but it was not until few days
ago that he was made aware of the Grim
lnal relations. Then he instituted close
watch. He is heartbrOken and has the
sincere sympathy of the community.

TORPEDO BOAT BUILDING.
The Norfolk Yard Will Probably
Build the Next Roat.

WASHINGTON, April 12.-It is be-
lieved in naval circles that it will be
finally decided to build Torpedo Boat
No. 2 in one of the navy yards. There
is talk of increasing the size of the gun
from 112 to 125 tons and having the yes
sci built i'll the Norfolk navy yard. Bids
would probably be solicited again by the
department, but it is not believed that
any contractor would bid within the
limit of the appropriation for larger
boat. and failing to get any such bid the
secretary could, under the law, have the
work done in navy yard. Naval Con-
structor Bowles. who is in charge of
construction in the Norfolk navy yard,
is understood to be anxious to build a
torpedo boat, and many believe that the
work could be done as we'll in the navy
yard as by contract.

familiar to the people and has become
Incorporated in the French language.
Hon. Whitelaw Reid, United States MIN
lister, ip speaking of the famous show
man, said: "Barnum had many excel
lent qualities. Horace Greedy agreed
with Barnum on the questions of tenn
perance and Universalism, and always
spoke of him in the highest terms. A
few years ago Barnum sent me his auto
biography with dedication on the fly
leaf saying: AS | can not live to correct
the proof sheets of my obituary, offer
you these pages, where you will find all
the facts of my life correctly told.'"

BROKEN FAMILIES,

The Survivors of the UtODia
Wreck Mourn the Loss of Rela-
tiVes.
New YORK, April 12.-The Italian
immigrants saved from the wreck of the
Utopia. who were brought to this city,
were landed at the barge Office TODAY.
Many of them mourned the loss of some
friend or relative, and, in some in
stances, one member of a whole family
was all there was left. Of one family
of eight, only one son reached here, the
rest having been lost. One sad case was
that of little Italian boy about nine
years old, who was all alone. his par
ents having been drowned. When the
accident happened he jumped over
board and got astride of a plank, to
which he clung until picked up by the
rescuing boats. He was taken care of
here by the Italian home secretary.
Capt. Mari. of the Angell, the steamer
which brought the rescued immigrants,
stood by the clerks desk as the immi-
grants passed by to be registered, and to
each one he gave S120. 1t was the di-
vision of the fund that had been sub
scribed for their relief.

regions were alive with strikers mass
meetings to-day. The labor leaders are
sparing no efforts to solidify their ranks
and straighten up wavering points.
They were out in full force, and have
stationed their pickets in the hone of
checkmatlng the reported general
movement of operators for re-
sumption, which is to be inau-
gurated tomorrow. With this end in
view, the companies have already had
fires rekindled in engine boilers at a
number of plants where idleness has
reigned for nine long weeks. The for
eign elements are holding meetings at a
number of places this evening, but no
outbreaks were feared, though it is a
well-known fact that they were eele-
brating the withdrawal of the Eight
eenth regiment. The labor leaders as
sert that money is all that is needed
now to prolong the strike, as the only
conditions that will cause return to
work on the part of the men are starya-

takes an interest. Mr. Roach was born
in Washington county, New York. in
1916, his father being farmer. He
came to MinneSta III 1855 and settled at
Greenvale. Dakota county, where he
lived until the war of the Rebellion
broke out. He enlisted in 1868 in Com

served with credit until the close of the

Roach is not altogether man of peace.
When wars alarms had ceased Mr.. Roach
returned to Dakota county and engaged
in farming until 1880, when he moved
to Northfield, Rice county, where he
now resides. He is successful farmer

CHICAGO. April 12.-The opinion is
generally expressed that the Eastern
board of ruling exceeded its power
when it requested the Western connec-

or. in other words, to stop ticketing
business over that road. From present.
indications, not one of the Western
roads will comply with the request.
General Passenger Agent Charlton. of

asking it to inform him whether it in
tended to submit to the dictation of the
Eastern roads and turn the Alton tick
cts to the wall. About twenty replies
were received yesterday, and every one
assured the Alton that it was notin the
boycotting business, and would con-
tinue to sell tickets over the Alton as
usual.
