Poor Tenderfoot

GUTHRIE, o. T., May Ex-Governor Seay
has returned from the Cheyenne and Arapa-
hoe reservation, where he has been investi-
eating the Indian trouble. He says the
trouble originated in dispute between q lot
of Indians and some white men over a claim
which had been allotted to an Indian, but
had accidentally been omitted from the gov
eminent list OF allotments.
The Indians soon learned that the whites
were afraid of them and they at once con-
cocted a scheme for plundering them. Nearly
all the white settlers are from eastern states
and they are afraid as death of the lazy ras-
Gals in blankets and feathers, and when the
Indians come to their doors and demand
food, money, ETC., they at once give them
everything they ask for. Were an Indian to
60 to western man with such a demand he
would be promptly kicked off the premises,
but they know their business and only pick
out the fasteners to bleed.
The settlers became very much alarmed
and many started to leave. As soon as the
Indians saw this they became very bold
and plundered several parties. insulted wo-
men, etc. They will all be called into the
agency at once and disciplined. Parties of
scouts have been sent out to see that no more
settlers are molested.

Strike Riots at the Columbia Show.
CHICAGO, May ia bloody collision be-
tween the police and 200 striking iron work
era from the worlds fair grounds supported
by crowds of sympathizers occurred at Grand
Crossing.
A score or two of scalp wounds were in
ficted by policemen's clubs and the excite
ment for time was intense.
The riot was due to the importation of men
from New York, Pittsburg and Baltimore
to take the places of strikers who we're en-
ployed on the manufacturers building by
the Edgemoor Bridge and Construction COM
pany. One hundred of the imported men,
who came IN on the Baltimore d Ohio, were
interviewed and induced to join the strikers.
A car on the Erie was, however, rushed
past the strikers into the worlds fair grounds.
Three cars more on the Erie road were met
by the strikers. While the Pittsburg contin-
gent on the Fort Wayne was waiting for a
switch engine, the mob around the train
ing and threatening those aboard.
A general rush for the newcomers was made
Just as Inspector Hunt with two patrol wag-
ons full of police dashed up and charged into
the mob. John j. Flynn and Edward Will
COZ, two of the leaders of the strikers, were
arrested.
When the mob was driven back the train
was coupled, and the new men, under q heavy
police escort ard amid the curses of the
crowd, were taken to the worlds fair grounds.
The two arrested strikers were carried of in
patrol wagons. They were subsequently re-
leased on bonds.
The strikers are angry and desperate, and
the police look for further trouble.

Lay DELEGATES,

OMAHA, NEB., May 1.-The general con-
ference have expended much time and much
talk over the question of equal lay delega-
ton. The debate has been at times earnest,
almost to bitterness.
Finally the matter was relegated to desue-
tude by the adoption of substitute to that
part of the report of the constitutional COM
mission bearing on the subject, which reads /:
THE section on general conference in the
discipline of 1908, as adopted by the general
conference of 1908, has the nature and force
of constitution. That section, together
with such notifications as have been adopted
since that time, in accordance with the pro-
visions for amendment in that section is the
present constitution. and is now included in
paragraphs IS to GA, inclusive, IN the disci-
phne of the Methodist Episcopal church of
1908, excepting, first, change of the provi-
sions for calling of extra sessions of the gen.
eral conference from unanimous to q two
thirds vote of the annual conference, and
second, that which is known as the plan of
lay delegation, as recommended by the gen.
eral conference of 1853 and passed by the
general conference of 1872"
This is regarded as a sort of compromise
between those who hold that the plan of lay
representatives is not part of the constltu-
ton and those who hold that it was; but in
reality it seems a victory for the former, v it'll
the admission on their part that the principle
OF lay representatives is in harmony with
and supported by the constitution.

London Markets,

LONDON, May 12.-During the week past
discount was quiet at for three months and
n for short. All the Indications point to q
continuance of the extreme ease of the money
market. A single gold shipment from the
east of $4,000 sterling is now due, and fur
Their shipments from New York are also ex-
pected, while the supplies are about to be
further increased by the payment of treasury
bills aggregating 81, 200,0 600. At the same
time there is no inquiry IN the open market
for export bullion. In fact the plethora of
money is embarrassing the banks, and some
of them are so loaded with deposits that they
are reluctant to grant any interest on them.
During the week silver fuctuated slightly:
The market had a show of strength till
Wednesday, when the meager allotment OF
India council bills caused a reaction. Later
the price hardened, owing to perceptlble
demand for India, closing at Sgd for bars,
with Mexican dollars at 3Ssld. Rupee paper
was also better, advancing a for the week.
The leading feature of the stock exchange
was the expansion of the public demand for
investment securities.
This upward movement did not at first
affect the American railroads, but reached
them later.

HER GRANDSON
Would Not Meet Queen Victo-
ria at Darmstadt
The Emperor's Mother. Dowager
Frederick. Saw Grandma Victoria
and Excused Her Son on the Plea
Of Ill Health.

PANS, May u.-Another rumor, which is
more important than all the rest, is to the
effect that Queen Victoria has returned to
London in q very Discontinued frame OF
mind on account of her failure to meet End
peror William during her stay at Darmstadt.
It is certain that the emperor refused to meet
his grandmother, and that instead of reply
ing to the dispatch inviting him to DARN
stadt he set out for Heligoland, where he
really had no business. Moreover, his only
reply to those persons who acted as interme-
diaries between him and the queen was that
there was no reason why he shonld be cate
chised by his grandmother. The fact is, the
emperor desired to avoid every attempt to
reconcile himself and the Empress Fre6e-
rick, which was the real object of Queen Vic
toria's stay in Germany. The queen had
several long interviews with her daughter,
and the latter assured her that the emperor's
health was much worse than the public sus-
pected, and that his illness, affecting, as it
did, his entire system, must prove the excuse
for his conduct toward his grandmother.

Powderly's PronuncIamento.


PHILADELPHIA, May 11.-An address to the
members of the order of Knights of Labor
concerning the forthcoming national con-
vention of the peoples party, to be held in
Omaha on July the 4th, which is to take
place in the nomination of a candidate fol-
president and vice president, has been issued
by General Master Workman Powderly. The
document is a lengthy one, and combats the
idea that the Knights cannot possibly stand
ON the st. Louis platform with the granger
element.
It attacks the Pinkertons, the thugs, bull.
lies and bummers in the employ of the old
political parties, and says that the duties of
the patriots of the present day and genera
ton is to divide their forces, split them In
two, leave them no chance to keep together,
and to do this by walking between them in
the middle of the road.
Powderly says that the people who believe
in an honest national circulating medium,
and who have the welfare of the nations cur
rency In their keeping, should not trust them
selves among the thieves on the sidewalks,
while those who believe that the government
should own and operate the railroads and
telegraphS should not run the risk of being
sidetracked by switching to one side or the
other. Those who know how many millions
of acres of land have been stolen from the
people, and how many have been devoted to
bonanza farming should also keep in the
middle of the road.
Powderly says that, on the whole. he would
rather Sit down than walk with the democrats
or republicans, but when candidates for pres
ident and vice president are nominated on
the st. Louis platform he expects to be found
just behind them and right in the middle of
the road.

Ol1AHA, NEE, May 1a-The committee on
episcopscy had red hot meeting. Tho
question of changing the episcopal residences
located at Buffalo. Topeka, Fort Worth and
Cincinnati to some other cities demanding
the residence of bishop, came before the
committee and provoked q lively fight.
Bishop Vincent, who resides at Buffalo, OBJ
jected to the removal of the episcopal resi-
dence from Buffalo. Bishop Nmde was
eloquently in favor of retaining the episcopal
residence in Topeka, and his remarks had q
marked effect. One argument was that Kan
sas was q prohibition state and had been
made so largely by the Methodist church,
and for this reason he believed the church
should stand by the state heroically, and the
presence of bishop in Topeka, he believed,
was an inspiration to the whole membership
of the church in the state, which was over
$1,000. The educational work in Kansas al
90 demanded the location of the Episcopal
residence there. The bishop held that Bish-
op Goodsell, who resides at Fort Worth, and
Bishop Walden, of Cincinnati also objected
to the removal of the Episcopal residences
from their cities. subcommittee brought
in q report favoring the establishment of
Episcopal residences at Detroit or Seattle or
some other point in Warrington, also in
Europe and Japan.
The subcommittee on the efficiency OF
bishops reported that all the present bishops
were capable of doing their work, and that
in the opinion of the subcommittee, there
should be no more bishops elected at present.
After q long discussion without reaching any
conclusion, the committee adjourned to meet
again, when the question of electing e
r. -.
Episcopal residences will again come before
the committee.

A Quick Discharge.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Senator Barbour, OF
Virginia, died suddenly at his home of hear
failure. He had no previous illness, and was
present at the session of the senate. His
death took place about six a. m, and was
very unexpected. He had always been re-
garded as a man of strong and vigorous con-
stitution, and been uniformly well and ener-
getic for a person of his age.
The only persons present at his bedside
when he died were his sister-in-law, Miss
Dangerfeld; Colonel Shepard, of Virginia,
guest at the house, and the domestics. The
doctor, who had been hastily summoned
when the senator first aroused the house and
told them of his illness, arrived just after dis
solution.
The senator retired early as usual and q
few minutes after SIX in the morning sunk
back on his bed without uttering word from
the time he first complained of feeling Ill.
His death was said by physician to have
been due to heart failure.

Judge Dundy Settles 1t.

OMAHA, NEB., May 12.-Judge Dundy, OF
the United States district court, entered judg.
ment in the celebrated Nebraska City distil-
lery case. In 1887 the Nebraska City distil-
lery went into the whisky trust, and after
leased to the trust for twenty-five years, and
after being shut down was sold to q. S. Wal
sey nnder conditions that he was not to use
it for distilling purposes. Walsey began
manufacturing whisky and the trust imme-
diately began suit, alleging violation of the
terms of the sale. The defense was that the
terms of the lease intended to perpetuate a
monopoly and was therefore contrary to
public policy. Five suits in all were main
tanned and in each instance the trust was de-
feated. Judgment was entered and the whole
suit dismissed.

The Printers Home.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colin the presence
of representative printers from many distant
points of the country, reinforced by the edi-
tors and publishers who compose the Ma
tional Editorial association, and with the
recognition of the state of Colorado in the
person of its chief executive, the Childs-
Drexel home for union printers, the first in
stitution of the kind to be established in the
world, was formally dedicated.
of welcome on behalf of the people of the
state of Colorado, Mayor Ira T. Sprague
followed suit on behalf of the citizens of
Colorado Springs; and Hon. Henry q. Lunt,
president of the chamber of commerce, ex-
pressed the welcome and good will of the
business community. All three speakers
were loudly applauded. A happy response
the International Typographical union. and
after music history of the home was read
by August Donath, of Washington, d. c.,
president of the board of trustees.
The Grafton was delivered by Senator j. n.
Gallinger, of New Hampshire. who lauded
eulogies upon Mr.. Childs and Anthony P.
Drexel.
MI. Childs followed in q neat speech in
which he expressed regret for the absence
of Mr.. Drexel.
The first step toward the establishment of
the enterprise dedicated to-day, was taken at
the annual convention of the International
Typographical union at Pittsburg in 1886,
when that body was the recipient of check
for 900, given jointly by Mr.. Childs and
Mr.. Drexel, the gift being absolutely without
conditions. At the Denver convention in
1889, it was decided to use the fund in aues-
ton as nucleus for the establishment of a
home for aged and infirm printers, and
shortly after plot of eighty acres of land
lying one mile east of Colorado Springs was
offered to the union and accepted. Since
1886 all union printers have contributed the
price of setting up 1000 ems to the fund,
the printers west of the Mississippi river
making their contributions in honor of Mr..
Childs birthday, on May II, upon which an
niversary the building was dedicated. It is
an imposing structure, standing on an emil
nence overlooking the city, and is built of
gray lava stone, its total cost exceeding $780,
600. Several of the rooms have been furn-
lshed by the larger unions, that of California
taking the lead. Another room has been
furnished by II. b. Kohlsaat, of the Chicago
Inter- Ocean.
