THE MORNING JOURNEY.
Holden ROasts the Sheriff OF Red
wood County.

Special 10 the Globe
REDWOOD, Mimi, April 2. - Clifton
Holden arrived in Redwood Falls this
morning at $50. At a. m. the pris-
oner, escorted by Sheriff Mead, of Red
wood county; Sheriff Smell, of Brown
county; Sheriff Glynn, of Blue Earth.
and Death Watchman Orin Van Dolah.
boarded the Chicago & Northwestern
train at New Ulm, bound for Redwood
Falls. Holden was plainly dressed.
His face was pale and its expression
Surly. He was cleanly shaved. and there
was evidence in the nervous twitchine
of the facial muscles that the man fully
understood his position. Shortly after
the train left New Ulm, Holden began
to abuse Sheriff Mead, whom he accused
in violent manner of having treated
him unfairly during the trial. The
sheriff paid no attention to the TRADE.
and before the train reached Sleepy Eve
Holden apologized for his conduct, and
begged the sheriff to use all the infIu-
ence he possessed to secure 4 commuta-
ton. The train reached Sleepy Eve at
$40. A curious crowd of men and bows.
with few women among them, awaited
the arrival OF the party. Holden was
taken to the Commercial hotel, where
he occupied the ladies' paror, under the
escort of Deputies Van Dolah and Ohm
Sted.
DO you want breakfast. Holden?,
asked Sheriff Mead.
NO." replied the prisoner. ~ am not
in condition for eating, anyway. Be
sides, what is the use?"
Every effort was made to induce
Holden to take some food. but he re-
fused firmly, and at last brusuue!v. At
$50 the party embarked on the Minne-
sofa Valley train for Redwood. During
the stay at Sleepy Eye big crowd had
gathered about the hotel, and when
Holden was marched out to the train
there was scene. The crowd ieered
and yelled, and one fellow threw a clod
of mud over the heads of the others at
the manacled prisoner. Holden turned
short round with the deputies holding
either arm.
That's right, you curs," he said.
''kick man that's down.
Then he seemed to realize that it was
useless to rail at mob, and with an ex-
preston of disgust he started for the
car, dragging the deputies with him.
Hearing a demonstration, Sheriff Mead
ordered all the blinds drawn on the
platform side of the car. Then the leer-
ing was renewed. and in the midst of IL
the train pulled out. Holden resumed
his sullen demeanor and said not a word
until the arrival. A bus met the train
here. By appointment the prisoner
was placed in it and conveyed to the
calaboose.
at midday the prisoner was asked if
he desired spiritual adyice:e. He replied
that 1t made no. difference to him. Rev.

STRANGE STORIES.
Conflicting Accounts Regarding
the Riot.

the Riot.
Mt. PLEASANT, Pa, April 2.-To-
night the streets at Mt Pleasant and
the roads nearing the works at
MoreWoOd are crowded with strik-
ers, There has been an ugly
crowd numbering at least 400
about the residence of Capt. Loar all
day, and tonight the numbers run
into the the thousands. Loar was the
leader of the guards who fired on the
men and the mob stands ready TO tear
his house down over his ears. Forum
ately for the gentleman, Loar has dis
appeared. He left his home and
the city soon after the shooting
at MorewoOd, and has not been seen
since. Loar is the man who was burned
in effigy the other day. and it is CON
ceded his departure was well advised if
not brave. AN astonishing story is told
tonight by striker named Dunn, who
was among the leaders of the riot. He
said:
i was with the body of men on the bridge,
ana M stopped moment to light my cigar
mere is no doubt that rumOrS of bombs had
fired the minds of the guards, for they took
the lighting OF my cigar as portendiug some.
thing dangerous The guards then fired di-
rectly toward the point where 1 stood, and
stanty, only leaving enough men to stand
by our fallen comrades, some twenty in all.
After the shooting l heard one in command
OF the guards exclaim, don't be too quick.
Another statement made was that
Capt. LOar said he was ordered to fire
by Deputy Sheriff Mcconnell. The
fact is, tonight some very strange
stories are told on both side of the riot
ing gang in regard TO the prOyocation
offer ed the guards before the latter fired.
They Will have an opportunity to re-
peat them- however, in court, as the
guards are being arrested as rapidly as
possible. At least 5000 men are in the
Vicinity of Mount Pleasant tonight, and
the feeling generated by the appearance
of the several companies of the Eigh-
teenth and Tenth regiments to-
night is one of security, both
among the strikers and citizens.
The foreign element, however,
is very uneasy. and there is very plain
talk here among some of the representa-
tive men that higher power than
the state will be called in. They init
mate plainly that their mother countries
may have something to say as to their
treatment by the guards, whom, they
say, all belonged to the n. q. P, cap
tanned by Mr. Loar. 1t is impossible
to get the operators or guards side
of the situation, as the guards are either
Invisible or under arrest, and the 0per-
ators say nothing except that the firing
was justified. But one thing was plain
to their minds-the strikers surrounded
MOrewo0d this morning for no pacific
motive. Coroner Wakefield will hold
an inquest early in the morning. Dep
uty Sheriff Mcconnell insists that Loar
gave the order to fire, which the latter
has StrenuouSlv denied

He Wants to Know Whether MObs
or Law Must Rule.
PITTSBURG, Pa, April 2.-The news
of the riot at MoreWOod and the SubSe-
quent order from the governor calling
out the Tenth and Eighteenth regi-
ments, created intense excitement in
this city. The order from Gov. Pattison
was received about o'clock this even
ing, and an hour later the full regiment,
under command of Col. Norman Smith,
started for the scene of to-day's riot.
Two companies of the Tenth regiment
also accompanied Col. Smith.
Mi. Ii. G. Frick, the owner of the
MorewoOd plant, and the largest coke
owner in the county, was seen this af-
teTnoon. and in an interview SAID:
I'VE placed our men and property in the
hands Of the lawful authorities fot protec
ton. The sheriff, IN the Morewoud case, has
done his duty; the governor is doing his.
This is no quarrel about wages. but only
whether our men working are to be shot
stroyed by rioters. The authorities must
settle this, and we will know whether mOb5
or law is to rule"
AS the men killed were all unnatural
lied foreigners. the possibility of inter-
national complications arising were
freely discussed. Austrian Consul Max
Shamberg, OF this city. received a tele
gram this afternoon informing him that
several of the miners killed were sub
jects of the Austrian government. He
replied that he would investigate the
matter, but refused to say anything
further.

LEGARE A LUNATIC.
Matrimonial Complication in High
Social Life.

CHARLESTON, S. c., April 2.-The
medical fraternity here is highly agi-
tated over scandal which involves two
of the faculty, and which has resulted
in the committal of one of them to Jail
under commission of lunacy. All the
parties are of the highest social stand
ing. 1t appears that DIR. j. s. Legare
married young lady from Orangeburg,
S. G. 1t is said that the young couple
did not get along well together, and that
finally the wife left the husband, after
having been badly treated. She sought
shelter in the home of w. A. Ancrum,
with whose wife she was intimate, and
resisted the efforts of her husband to
get her to return home. Yesterday Le-
gare armed himself with revolver and
went to Ancrum'S house. Ancrum was
going to the door to see who had called,
when his wife, VINO had been looking
out of the window, shouted to him to
stay indoors. Later in the day Legare
was arrested, and to day commission
de lunaticO was sworn out against him.
His friends want to send him to an asy-
lum. The affair has created consider
able talk owing to the prominence of
the parties. There is no divorce law in
this state, and hence the injured wife is
p0werless to protect herself.
