as they were outside the negroes opened
fire on the Italians and a riot enSued.
The fight lasted twenty minutes, during

on trial for fraudulent banking and for
arson. y woman named Helene Gold

in the case is the announcement Just

point Will be raised by the prosecution
that the exemption applies only to

MURDERED AND BURNED.
The Terrible End OF ColoraC @
RanChman

The Terrible End OF a Colorado
Ranchman.
DENVER, Jan. 31.-The death of Fred
Alban, a ranchman of Devils Head a
mountainous district in Colorado, is
shrouded in mystery. 1t was probably
tragedy, and Daniel S. Reker and j.
S. Myers have been arrested, charged
with the shooting of Alban and then
cremating him. DEVILS Head is lonely
settlement. The inhabitants gain a
livelihood by raising hay and
herding cattle. For more than
year past cattle have disappeared
mysteriouSly from tine ranges. They
were always missed in the morning,
and for some reason it was believed
that Alban knew something about the
disappearance of the cattle. At 5 o'clock
in the morning before Thanksgiving
the barn of Daniel Reker and J. S.
Myers, who had been prominent among
the accusers Of Alban, was burned
They suspected Alban, and Reker is
said to have threatened his life. A
couple of days after Thanksgiving a
recluse, living near Alban, died after
eating supper. Poison was afterwards
found to have been placed in his -four.
This crime, too, was laid at Adams
door. Alban made no replies to these
accusations. He shut himself up
in his cabin, ana the fact that he was
not seen for long time excited no suS-
piclon. But traveller one morning dis
covered that his house and barn had
been burned. Then the sheriff began
an investigation. The charred remains
of Alban we're found in the ruins. The
skeletons of ten horses burned alive
were found in the barn. A hay stack,
half mile away, was also burned. The
Sheriff traced foot prints in the snow
leading to the abode of the men under
arrest. 1t is believed that Alban was
shot before the building was fired. On
account of the inaccesSlbility of Devils
Head because of the snow the facts
above given have just become known.

been had upon the. body of Gen. Ii. a.

sides these there were present Dr.. Lewis

find out the track OF the bullet that had
passed through the generals body at
Malvern hill, and inflicted wound that
remained open for thirty years, reQuir-

cover why in all these years the wound
had not healed up. 1t was found that
the ball, which had inflicted an injury

had crashed through the upper right

full, inasmuch as crowds of people from
10 o'clock until crushed through the
corridors eager to see the young ladies.
At an early hour Presbyterian preach
er went to Miss MitchelPs room and
asked to pray for her, but the young
lady does not put much faith in the
efficacy of prayer. Miss johnson being a
Catholic, the preachers offer to pray in
her behalf was respectfully declined.
The crime was made to them the theme
sJf Il sermon by one of the local minis
tiers. Other diYines referred to
1t during their morning sermons.
the Jail and preached to the prisoners
almost in ear-shot Of the young ladies,
referring to Miss Mitchell as an awful
example as to what ideas of right and
wrong would drive people to do. The
state and the lawyers for Miss Mitchell
hold opposite opinions as to the cause
for the commission of the crime. The
attorney general will attempt to show
that Alice Mitchell either killed Freda
Ward to avenge herself ON Miss Wards
sister, Mrs. Valmer, or that there had
been 4 misunderstanding between the
SLAYER and her victim. and that Miss
Mitchell, moved by hate, killed her.
One OF the theories of the state is that
there is a man in the case.
The attorney general will prove her
love for flirting by the recitation of sew
eral of her escapades, the principal of
which is her meeting several young
men in an out-of-the-way pant of the
city. The state has several detectives
atIwork and they have already unearthed
some damaging facts. One of these
is that when Miss Mitchell slew Freda
Ward a man was seen following Misses
Mitchell and johnson in buggy. When
Alice Mitchell leaped into the buggy
after the commission of the crime this
nun drove rapidly away. On the fol-
lowing morning he left the city and has
been tracked to New Orleans. 1t is
thought that it was he to whom Miss
Mitchell on Sunday night communicated
her intention of killing Miss Ward.
The attorneys for Miss Mitchell will
at once put in a plea of insanity. If
Mss Mitchell be sent to the asylum,
then Miss johnson will have to fight for
her life alone. This afternoon Miss
Johnson said Miss Mitchell kept her in
ignorance as to her intentions, and
when she left the buggy to cut the
Ward girls throat, she Informed her
that she intended once more to kiss
Freda good-by. There is young law
yer here who says that some time ago
he received letter from young lady,
including fee, and asking him if, I'M
der the common law. one woman might
marry another. He was directed to
mail his reply to certain postoffice adj
dress. He did as requested. and, after
the tragedy. discovered that his client

An ties.
Plenty of Indications That

This Year.
How the "Old Gang" Has
Elected Men Only to Turn
Them Down.
Special to the Globe.


BISMARCK, N. D., Jan. 81. - The
GLOBE hit the nail squarely on the
head the other day when it said that in
North Dakota ''politics will be rather
more uncertain than usual this year."
This, if the readers must have diagram
with his editorials, means that the
Democrats stand a better chance than
ever of electing some of their men on
the state ticket, if not the head of the
ticket himself. The Republicans have
dallied with Dame Prohibition to
such an extent that they will
have to make tremendous strug-
gle in the coming campaign to
maintain themselves. They are saying
that, as this is a presidential year, the
members of the party will be held in
line, and there is no danger. But the
prohibition plumbers, the dlsaffection of
factions in the Republican party. the
struggle On the part of so many aspir-
ing members Of the e. o. p. for place
and power. mean that there is a chance
for the Democrats if they only seize it.
1t is noteworthy fact that the ''old
gang" headed by Alec Mckenzie, never
allow man to have the same sort of
cherry twice if they can help it. Under
territorial days Raymond was sent to
congress once and retired. Clifford fol-
lowed, and

be allowed to succeed himself in con-
gress, and Pierce also was beaten when
he came up for reelection by the very
men who put him there the first time.
I5 believed very thoroughly that
Casey, too, will be slaughtered. He was
never the first choice of the old gang,
anyhow. He got there through strange
combination of circumstances, which it
is Improbable to dwell upon. But it is
difficult to see why the politicians.
who are moDopolists should not be
willing to allow him to succeed
himself. 1t is probable they would if
he had not allowed himself to be run by
Hansbrough in the matter of appoint
ments. The Democrats have an excel
lent fighting chance to eject Casey's sue
cessor. A good sign of Democratic sue
cess is that there are nota large number
of Democratic aspirants for the different
positions. 1t looks as though the ext
gencies of the occasion Will be depended
upon to select men who will stand the
best chance of being elected to repre-
sent the Democratic cause.

PoRT TOWNSEND, Wash, Jan. 81
The steamer from Alaska which arrived
Friday night reports that ten miners are
supposed to have persisted of hunger or
cold. Last April Messrs. Orion and S.
o. Wheeler, of Junaeu, accompanied by
eight other miners, left Juneau on the
shore Charley for Lituya bay, taking
eight months provisions. The party
was to return in November. Nothing
having been heard from them great un-
easinesS is felt, for they were in the
frozen regions. where it would be i'm
possible to get food or help. The peo-
pie appealed to Capt. Maynard, Of the
United States war ship Plnta, at Sitka,
to go to the relief of the missing men.
Maynard declined on account of the
great risk to the ship, and because he
thought the men we're beyond reach of
human aid. AT mass meeting held in
Juneau the governor was appealed to.
and relief expedition was organized
and sent out in sailing vessels with sup
plies in search Of the lost miners, but
with little hope of rescuing them. The
winter at Lituya bay is long aud severe,
and probably the ten missing men have
persisted.
