own, present them to your more

a manufacturer who is retiring
from the trade, at far below the
cost of production, and we will
to-day selEthese goods to our

CHICAGO, May 13.-A serious strike is ex-

of switohmen obnoxious to the union, abont
whom there has been much controve. sy.
Several weeks ago Yardmaster McNerney
incurred the displeasure of switch
men working under him because
he discharged man who re-
fused to obey orders. The switch
men threatened to strike if McNerDew was
not discharged. The latter is member OF
the order of railway trainmen and that
body took up his fight, but he saved the
company embarrassment by resigning tenn
porarily. Then the strikers demanded that
one of the discharged switchmen by put in
McNerney's place. This was dor 9 and the
switchmen were jubilant. Now trainmen
of all divisions of the road have taken UP
McNerney's case, and it is expected that Il
bitter struggle will ensue. 1t il peculiar in
that it is the company and large majority
of its employees arrayed against the order of

Of Demersville.

The Justice Who Released Him Is Ordered

ing Scrape.

MIssouLA, May l3.-[Special. IA special
to the Gazette received late tonight from
Demersvilie states that j. S. Jurden, the
gambler who shot ranchman named
Burns. at that place on last Thursday, is
missing and is known to have been lynched
by the excited populacs last night. 1t de-
velops that the coroner's jury returned n
verdict holding Jurden guilty of the muir
der, but the preliminary trial, before JUS
tice Shepherd, resulted his being released.
This SO enraged the citizens of the place
that they forcibly took possession of Jur-
den last night conveyed him to an isolated
spot some three miles from the town,
and there hanged him. Justice
Shepherd, it is further stated,
has been given twenty-four hours TO leave
town. 1t seems that Jurden was paid the
sum of $4 by some one to shoot man, and
he mistook Burns for the intended victim.
Great excitement prevails, and it is reported
impossible to discover the leaders or mem
bers of the lynching party, owing to the
fact that the officers stationed there are
said to be in sympathy with their action.

THE ITATA NOT A PIRATE.
That Claim Abandoned by Washington
Ofiicinis--In irrational Law.

That Claim Abandoned by Washington
Onicinis-IntsrnntiOnnl Law.
WAsHINaToM, May IL. 3.--There is no longer
any tenable claim that tho ltata mny be
seized as pirate. II is recognized TINT
she can bs recaptured for violation OF Gus
toms laws, disregard of court, and perhaps
Tor kidnapping, but any assumption that
she is pirate ia completely neentivod by
the doctrine laid down bv tho late Francis
Wharton, formerly solicitor of the depart
ment OF state, and an eminent authority on
international law. This doctrine was nc
cepted by Secretary Baynrd and laid down
Rt the time of the Colombian rebellion and
the Panama trouble. The Colombian gov
ernment had declared insurgent vessels to
be pirates rs the Chilian government has
"tne government of the United States can
not regard rs piratical vessels manned
by parties in arms against the government
of Colombia when such vessels are passing
to and from ports held by such insurgents.
or when attacking ports in possession OF
the national government. In the late civil
war the Uuited States mt an early period Of
the struggle surrendered the position that
those manning confederate cruisers were
pirntes under international lnw. The
United States of Colombia cannot sooner or
later do otherwise than accept the same
VleWs. but however TINS may be no neutral
power can acquiesce in the position now
taken by the Colombian government
Another fact which may be of interest in
view of the expected arrival of the Itata Mt
q Mexican polt, probably Acapulco. is that
she cannot stay there. Under practices of
international law the Mexican government
could not refuse to protect her, but she
could not remain in port more than TWEEN
ty-four hours, as. to do 3d. would subject
her to the charge of using the port az base
OF operation against friendly govern
ment. So, if the vessel reaches Acapulco
before the Charleston the latter vessel
would have simply to wait outside port for
twenty four hours to get an opportunity to
retake the Itata and her stores, providing
these have not in the meantime been trans
ferred to the Esmeralda.
