New ORLEANS, April 3O.-The State
Supreme court has finally rendered de-
cision in the famous election case in favor
OF the Louisiana lottery against which there
is no appeal. The case was first presented
to the court nearly two months ago, and
the decision is participated in by the
whole court of five justices, Associate JUS
tice Breaux taking part of the briefs sub
mitted. He was ill when the case was ar
gued by the counsel.
The decision is Of great importance to
the people of Louisiana, as it involves
their ight to vote upon constitutional
amendment providing for an annual in
crease to the revenue OF the State of 81,
25O, 900. AS result of the opinion, Louis
lana will witness one Of the most exciting
political fights ever waged in this State
between factions of the Democratic party.
The State election takes place next April.

Union With the United States.

New YORK, April 3O.-A special cable
from London quotes Sir William White
way as saying in regard to the New
Foundland bill that "if Lord Salisbury per-
sists in pushing the bill as it now stands
we shall appeal to the house of commons
for justice and hold public meetings to
bring to bear upon the house the pressure
of popular sentiment which is in our
favor. Should all fall" he concluded,
1--WE will return home and seriously con-
slider union with the United States"

"Not . Nation.''

Sioux FALLS, s. D., April 30.-Judges
Shiras and Edgerten in the United States
court rendered decision upon the ques-
ton raised by the defense in the Plenty
Horses case in which the defend
ant disputed the jurisdiction of
the court for the reason that
war existed between the government
and Indians when the killing of Lieut..
Casey took place. The court denied that
the Indians had right to 60 to war and
affirmed they were not separate nation,
but upon the same level as American
subjects to the laws made by congress.
This theory is an entirely new one and
important upon the admissability of
testimony relating to resistance in war.

wnNr W11,n ONCE MORE.

WENT WILD ONCE MORE Fl
In the midst OF the confusion G. M.
Miller of California, came to the front
on the prohibition question, which had
been ignored in the platform and resolu-
tions. All efforts to choke him off with
points of order we're Intellectual. The
resolution offered by him was brief, but
to the point. It said: "Resolved that
we favor the abolition of the liquor traf-
fic." After a confused debate the
amendment was overwhelmingly de-
feated. After brief recess the roll OF
states was called for members OF the ma
tional committee, the convention adopting
the innovation of appointing three
members from each state instead OF one
member as the old parties have. Tauben:
reck of Illinois was chosen chairman OF
the national committee. A few moments
of confused preparation for adjournment
sine die ensued, then the chairman's
gavel fell, and the first convention of the
peoples party of the United States had
passed into history. The members OF
the national committee from Minnesota
are Ignatius Donnelly, @. N. Perkins
and Andrew Stevenson. From South
Dakota: J. W. Hardin, H. L. Loucks
and Fred Seppe. From Wisconsin:
Robert Schilling, Alfred Manheimer
and A. j. Phillips.

Lumber Yards Burned.

MINNEAPOLIS, May 21.-This morning
engine companies one and twelve of the
st. Paul fire department we're called on
to assist the Minneapolis department.
A fierce fire was raging in the lumber
yards of j. w. Day & Company, situated
between Twenty-fourth and Twenty
fifth streets, North and River and First
streets. About 100000 feet of lumber
was licked up by the flames involving
a loss OF $175,00O. The fire was discov-
cred early by Waterman. It caught
from spark presumably thrown from
refuse burner of the Ashley Lumber
company's mill. The Day lumber yard
occupies about seventeen acres of ground
much of which is made of refuse of
the saw mills, edgings and sawdust.
Between the yards and mill is high
enbarkment of the Northern Pacific
railroad which crosses the river at this
point. A hotter fire Minneapolis has
not had in ears. The entire fire depart
ment was called out before $3.50 o'clock.
They were driven back foot by foot until
the positions had to be abandoned for
good. Two hundred feet away from the
scene of the fire houses were set ablaze
by the intense heat. Bardwell,
Robinson f& tcompany's big planning
mill and factory on the west of
the burning yard were saved
by the merest chance. A line of freight
cars on Bardwell, Robinson & Co.'s side
track, in the rear of the main building
and about 100 feet from the edge of j.
Day & Co.'s yard, we're burned, with
their contents. The Bardwell people
will lose about $4,000 or $4,000, mostly
in lath and shingles, which stood near
the freight cars. Their lumber yard,
south of J. w. Day & Co.'s mill, was
saved. The Northern Pacific railroad
bridge was on fire several times during
the morning, and SO intense was the heat
that the middle piers were burning on
two occasions. The Northern Pacific
rails to the south and west of the burn
ing yard, in several places, we're made
red-hot and warped and bent out of
shape. The ties we're burnt from under
the rails for yards. J. w. Day & Co.
save, in addition to their mill, about one
million feet of lumber which stood in the
northeast corner of their yard, on the
river bank, beyond the point where the
fire started. Last week J. w. Day &
Co.'s yard was on fire SIX times, the re-
suit of sparks that escaped from the Ack-
ley smokestack. Following these fires,
J. w. Day, Bardwell & Robinson, Chief
Runge of the fire department and others
went to the Ackley people and requested
that new bonnets be put on the smoke
stacks. The Ackleys did not comply
with the request and the fire this morn
ing is pointed at as the legitimate result.
The insurance was $4,000. The fire
was under control at o'clock.

Wrecked on the Southern Pacific.

COLUMBUS, Tex, May 22.-Last night
about II o'clock, two miles this side Of
Borden, in this county, serious wreck
occurred on the Southern Pacific track,
killing one man and wounding seven
others. It was special from San An
tonic, filed with United States regulars
destined for Florida. The train was
running at a usual rate of speed when
the engine became uncoupled from the
baggage car. The automatic air brakes
failed to work on the coaches, but
checked the speed of the engine. A race
OF mile and half then ensued, after
which the engineer and fireman
jumped from the engine, which was al
most instantly telescoped by the tender
and baggage car, causing a complete
wreck An inquest was held over the
dead body of the man killed, and he was
ascertained to be Charlie Carter Of Co. G,
Fifth infantry. The names Of the injured
could not be ascertained.

Declared No Fight,

SAN FRANCISCO, May 22.-Referee
Cooks decision in the Jackson orbett
meeting last night was that the fight was
no contest. It is, in effect, that the club
has seen no battle and is in no wise,
therefore, indebted to the pugilists for
their nights work. A meeting of the
board of directors will probably be held
at once, to discuss the matter. All bets
on the final result of the fight are off.
DECISION OF THE DIRECTORS.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 22-The direct
ors of the California Athletic club, at a
meeting this evening, decided to give
Jim Corbett and Peter jackson $4,000
apiece for their exhibition last night and
to offer the men purse of $500 to
fight before the club again.

ninety-fye to eighty. The remainder of
the day was spent in consideration of the
