SEALAND (Wash.), April H. At 1
o'clock this morning thirty or forty
masked men appeared at the County Jail
and demanded that John Rose and John
Edwards, murderers of the Frederickson
family, be delivered.
The guard, William Brown, refused TO
open the door, when the leader of the
mob threatened to throw a dynamite
bomb into the Jail.
The guard then became frightened and
opened the outside door, first firing his
pistol to give the alarm. He was taken by
five men into the woodshed and detained
until the tragedy was over. Brown says
that seven or eight shots were fired.
John Rose and Edwards were found
dead after the crowd retired.
Sheriff Turner was asleep at his house.
The affair did not take over twenty min
utes.
No attempt was made to force the iron
cage. although a sledge-hammer was
found in the Jail, where it had been left.
1t is supposed the men were shot down
in their cells. The Sheriff and Coroner
just passed through here. a Coroner's S
jury will be impaneled at once.

CHICAGO, April 1.-THE Board of Elec-
ton Commissioners met to-day for the
purpose of taking up the canvass of votes
cast at the city election Tuesday. The
board proceeded to hear evidence in the
matter of the alleged misconduct of Den
mis- Sheehan, one of the Judges of Elec-
ton, for whose arrest a warrent was
issued yesterday in behalf of the Chair
man of the Republican Campaign Com
mittee. S. Fl. Harris, one Of the Repub-
lican judges, testified to Sheehan's break
ing into the box after it had been locked
and scaled. Harris said that he was in
formed there was q conspiracy to destroy
the ballots and poll books.
Sheehan testified the whole trouble
arose from the fact that Harris wanted to
run things to suit himself, and did not
propose to let the Democratic judges have
any voice III the matter. He admitted he
broke the box with hammer, but said it
was with no intention of fraud.
The investigation was then laid over
until after the completion of the can
vass. Meantime Sheehan was locked up
in jail, but subsequently was released on
bail.
The board then turned its attention to
the canvass of votes. After going over
the First Ward, revision in certain pre-
cincts was objected to, and the board ad-
iourned until Monday morning. The re-
suit in this ward, as canyassed. showed a
loss of twenty votes by Cregier, of five by
Washburn, and of two by Harrison.

FRESNO, April 1.-This afternoon the
case of the people against Clyde Boulder
was tried for petit larceny. The defend
ants mother, a respectable woman, was
present. Emil T. Bernhard, Deputy Dis

that her son returned to the ranch just
before 10 o'clock on the night of the

NEW IMMIGRATION LAW.
Steamship Agents Given to Understand
That 1t Must be Oheyed

Steamship Agents Given to Understand
That 1t Must be Obeyed.
New YORK, April 1.-THE steamship
companies have finally awakened to the
realization that the new immigration law
is to be enforced. Yesterday meeting
of the representatives of all the principal
steamship lines was held to consider tho
situation. Colonel Weber was present.
The steamship company agents made
point that the lines were under contract
with such passengers as they took to land
them in this country, and If the people
were not allowed to land the companies
were liable to action for breach of con-
tract in the countries from whose ports
the steamers sailed. Further, they said
they had no facilities for restraining those
immigrants from landing who had been
placed on board their ships for return to
the ports whence they came They also
doubted their legal right to restrain any
person from going ashore who insisted
upon doing SO.
In reply Colonel Weber said that the
law was not made for the benefit of the
steamship companies but for the benefit
of the country, and that il was the inten-
ton of the law that companies bringing
improper immigrants here should suffer
trouble and loss. If the companies exer-
clSed proper care as to the class of immi-
grants their steamships brought to these
shores, there would be no trouble for any
one but the Government did not propose
any longer to allow steamship companies
to bring the refuse of Europe here and
foist upon the Government all the
trouble and expense of OBTAINING and re-
turning such people. The law is ex-
plicit, and it must be obeyed or the COM
panies must take the consequences.
The agents then said they would will
ingly take the debarred immigrants back,
if they could be detained at the barge
Office pending the time for the sailing of
the steamer on which they were to be re-
turned and a committee was appointed
which will wait on Colonel Weber Mon
day to propose some plan Of compromise.

have raised in all European Cabinets an
awful question. The United States signed
the treaties with US, but when the occa-

said they could not consider them, as
they were bound by private engagements

violation of the covenants last? All Eu-

Rudini.
"a recent cable dispatch has proven to
the American Government that the
Italian Cabinet is not joking, and that it
is quite equal to the occasion in this

learn that to hold her position amongst
civilized nations it is not enough to have
