The Kiowa Journal intimates that as
Mr.. DeGeer was not elected on the pro-
hibltion issue. 1--WE cannot see how any
person can reasonably expect l.. w. De-
Geer to rise higher than his party" He
does not have to rise higher than his
party. His party has always demanded
the enforcement of all laws on the stat

there. Mr.. DeGeer, we believe, is hon

him heartily. We are cognizant of the
fact that jobs have been put up to dis

Lively times occurred in Western
Missouri and Eastern Kansas last Fri

Lamar with a prisoner, whom they
hung. AS the mob got off the train two
train robbers got Oh. who robbed the
passengers. At FIT. Scott policeman
attempted to arrest the train robbers,
and was shot dead. The robbers then
look a north bound freight, and at
Pleasanton, Kansas, one robber was
killed and the other badly wounded and

OLD LDW0MANSULLITAN'
Is the Way Charley Mitchell Comes
Back at the Champion.
SAYS HE WILL BE READY TO
Fight at the Date Named by the Olympic Cub, Of
New 0rlsans-Will Bet $1,000 on the Out
side and Will Forfeit $500 TO the
Club If He is Not There.

BUFFALO, n. Y, March 7.-Charley
Mitchell, the English pugilist, was seen
by an Associated Press reporter here
to-day, and he gave the following Off
cial and definite ultimatum to Sullivan:
'In reply 10 Sullivan's charge, deny
that l am challenging him for the sake
of getting notoriety. He flatters him
self. do not require 1t. have been
before the American public for eleven
years. He calls me that man Mitchell
don't want to fight Now to him say,
all that old woman Sullivan has TO do Is
to put his name to the articles that the
Olympic Club forwards him.
THE pleasure il would give him to
thrash me, according to his own ac-
counts, ought TO be satisfaction enough
outside of the financial benefits derived
thereby. II seems Incredible that
purse Of $4,000 is not enough TO satisfy
this man, who tries 10 gull the Amerl-
cans by saying that | am snch an easy
mark for him. 1t is he himself who re-
quires free advertising for, from all ac-
counts, a rotten show.
Il want this to be final, for | require
no newspaper talk. Myself and Slavin
go around giving legitimate boxing
shows, willing to meet any comerS in
any town. Neither of US are under con-
tract. II Sullivan wishes 10 make the
people OF the continent believe in him
he wants to quit his bad impersonation
of an actor, which only brings ridicule
upon himself from the play-going pnb-
lie, and come right down to business
and say, Il will beat this fifty pound
man Mitchell who ran away from me In
France l need hardly repeat that |
have as yet never failed in any partcu-
lar TO accomplish what / said | would.
Have never disappointed the public;
that is more than Sullivan can say.
"To prove that / am no buffer, |
state | will fight for the purse offered
by the Olympic Club and will conform
TO their rules ! will put up $500 de-
posit that will forfeit to the club II |
do not appear on the night they fix for
the contest. l will also bet $4,000 that
am proclaimed victor. do not want
anyone to fix up challenges and then
beat about the bush when Il straightfor-
ward reply comes. / believe that what
/. have herein stated will meet with APP
proval of the fair-minded aud sport
ing public of America. l will concede
TO Sullivan his choice Of rules"
yours truly,
"CHARLEY MITCHELL"
Mitchell frequently emphasized his
remarks by declaring that Sullivan was
afraid TO meet him. II hope this official
challenpe will bring him TO terms" he
concluded.

THE DIVORCE GRANTED.
Baroness De Stsur Liberated from
Matrimonial Bondage
BUT SHE EVIDENTLY IOES NOT
Like Freedom, for Her Name Appears 81 Hour
Later on'a Marriage License With That Of q
New Man Who Has Been Her Can
paniOn and Friend. =

SIOUX FALL, March 7.-Baroness De
Steurs is free woman SO far as the
wearing OF the yoke OF matrImony is
concerned. The decree OF divorce was
filed to-day by Judge Aikens. The in
teresting portion OF the decision rules is
as follows:
That since their marriage the Baron
has been guilty OF acts OF extreme
cruelty toward the Baroness which
have inflicted grievous mental suffer
ings upon her, the acts consisting OF
freq uent violent exhibitions OF III
temper and unmerted censure In the
presence OF othe and finally culmin-
ating on the 18th OF June, 1890, In the
Baron spirting away from the society,
custody and control OF his wife her two
minor children upon the pretext that
she was in an unbalanced state OF mind,
that her children were In danger OF be-
ing affected by her malady to their
great deterIment, were they allowed TO
be with her.
THE daughter was placed In con-
vent by scheme which would not be
doing violence 10 reasonable inference
TO find in its inception intended TO end
In the incarceration OF the mother. and
was sufficient 10 warrant the plaintiff
in ceasing 10 live and cohabit with the
Barton. The conclusion OF law is 10 tho
effect that the marriage is dissolved and
both freed from the obligation thereof.
The custudy OF the minor child, Mar
garet Eugenie Victorin DeSteurs, Is
given to the mother, as she requested
in her original complaint"
Immediately after the filing OF the
decree a marriage license was Issued by
the clerk OF the court permitting the
marriage OF Elliott IebOrowski and
Margaret De Steurs. Ieborowski is a
New Yorker OF immense wealth, being
the owner of the Broadway Theatre.
He has been the constant companion OF
the Baroness through all her troubles,
and 1t is fitting ending TO the suffering
OF American woman in the hands OF a
foreign diplomat.
IL is undecided when the marriage
will take place, but will occur In all
Likelihood tonight.

OF the House Given in Detail With the
Way Each Member Voted on the Rules
Committees Report,
WASHINGTON, ID. c., March The
free coinage issue will not down. This
was clearly demonstrated by to-day
action of the House, and the members
of both parties who have been hoping
that the silver question might be post
poned until after the elections, are to-
night convinced that the issue is one
which must be met aud disposed OF by
the House before the date OF the Nation
al conventions. The free coinage men
in both parties OF course are highly
eated at their triumph.
The vote i'm the House to-day indi-
Gates that the House will surely pass
the Bland bill, 50 decisive and over
whelming was the victory of the advO-
Gates of free coinage. When the vote
came, not on the silver resolution alone,
but on all auxiliary questions, the free
coinage men came to the front, an un-
broken phalanx and by vote Of over
10 l routed their opponents from every
redOubt behind which they sought
temporary refuge. On the last and
vital proposition; that setting apart
three DAYS for the consideration OF the
Bland bill the free coinage meu won by
the overwhelming vote Of 100 yeas TO
81 nays.
Before reading the Journal, Mr..
Catchings, of Mississippi, called up the
resolution, and the Clerk proceeded 10
read, and upon its adoption Mr.. Catch
ings demanded the previous question.
Mr.. Tracey, Of New York, called at
tention TO the fact that the Journal had
not been read.
The Speaker declared that il was in
order for the gentleman from MisSisS-
ippi to call up the resolution. The
reading OF the resolution was con-
cluded.
Mr.. Dingley-"HaS the Chair ruled
that this report of the Committee on
Rules can be considered before the
Journal has been read?
The Speaker-"The Chair has. That
is the provision Of the rule"
Mr.. Dingley-''The same provision Of
the rules would confer the same privi-
lege on conference reports"
The Speaker-"It does not confer the
same privileges on conference report.

Carskadon Consulting with Elkins and
Mason.
Special Telegram 10 the Reotstef.
WASHINGTON, d. c., March There
is a gathering of more or less distin-
guished West Virginia politicians in
Washington just now. They include
John X. Thompson, OF Putnam county;
Capt. Black B. Dovener, OF Wheeling;
Col. Dawson, Of Preston county, and
several OF lesser note. Mr.. L. r.
Carskadon, late Prohibition candi-
date for Governor, is also here with the
Republicans, and presumably came on
an errand. They have daily and
nightly consultations and condolences
with Secretary Of War Elkins and In
ternal Revenue Commissioner Mason
and while, Of course, none of them will
talk about their proceedings, there can
be no doubt that they are perfecting
the plans by which it is hoped TO cap
ture West Virginia for the Republicans
this fall. They are also fixing up their
slate for State officers, Congressional
candidates and delegates to the Repub-
lican National Convention.
For the present both Secretary Elklns
and Commissioner Mason are devoting
much more time to West Virginia poll
tics than they are to the business of the
government.
Secretary Elkins entertained at a din
ner last night several Of the West Vir-
ginians, and has shown them a great
deal OF attention in other ways. As ssoon
as the conferences are finished and the
scheme and plan Of campaign mapped
out, the visitors will return home, and
then the result of their deliberations
will be made known through quiet, but
authoritative announcements as to who
will be the candidates for the various
offices, State and Congressional. or
course, the West Virglnians are very
anxious to persuade Mr.. Elkins that he
must become the candidate for COVER
nor, as they know with him at the head
of the ticket there would be a generous
flow of that which makes the political
machine as well as the mare go.

rested Charged with Perjury.

\ Pittsburg Law and Order heformer hr
rested Charged with Perjury.
PrrTsBUEG, PA, March 7.-Robert
Mcclure. the agent Of the Law and
Order League, who has been waging
war on newsdealers, carriers and news
boys for selling newspapers on Sunday,
was arrested to-day for willful and cor
rupt perjury and gave bail in the sum
OF 81 900 for hearing on Thursday.
Last Thursday Mcclure swore posi-
lively that he purchased a copy OF the
Pittsburg Press at 7:20 O'Clock Sunday
morning, February 2S, from James M.
Sharp, South Side newsdealer. Sharp
went on the stand and testified that he
did not sell papers that day, and at the
hour named he was eating breakfast.
Notwithstanding this, Sharp was fined
the usual S25 and costs by Alderman
Rohe. Mr.. Sharp claims he has evil
dence that will convict Mcclure. The
penalty is $500 fine and Imprisonment
not exceeding seven years.
At the hearing agent Mcclure stated
that 1t was his intention TO go after the
newspaper proprietors next for violat-
ing the Sabbath day, so that informa-
tions against the Sabbath day, so that
informations against the Sunday news
papers would probably be made in few
days.
