THAYER'S CASE DISMISSED.

Governorship Contest

1t is Thought This Will Practically End tho
Governorship Contest
LINCOLN, Neb., March I7.-The SUI
preme court yesterday morning called
up the case of the state eX rel, Thaver
against James E Boyd. and on motion
of Gov. Boyd's counsel sustained judg-
ment and dismissed the case at Thayer's
costs This practically ends the case.
The court might allow it to be rein
stated, but no steps have been taken in
the matter of applying for such a pro-
cedure and none are likely to be taken.
Thayer says his Texas interests &C.
cupy all mis- time. In the event that
the case was agaiu taken up Gov.
BOYD would continue to act and it
would be impossible to secure de-
cision before his term OF office expires
This removes the greatest induce
meut Thayer could have for continuing
the fight The republican politicians
are averse to keeping the fight up, and
Thayer can hardly go on without their
aid AID sympathy.

AN ENGLISH BENDER.

Horrible Discoveries Made In LIverpool-A
Parallel to the Bender Case-Wss 1t Jack
the Ripper?
LIVERPOOL, March 17.-Some time
ago a woman and her children who
formerly lived at Rain Hill, part of
Liverpool, disappeared. At Melbourne,
Australia man named Williams was
arrested later charged with numbering
a woman there. He was from here,
and investigation was at once
set on foot here. The police to-
day went TO the house formerly
occupied by the persons in question,
lifted a hearthstone from its place and
after half hours digging discovered
the body OF the missing woman This
was lifted from its resting place, and
Immediately beneath it were found the
bodies of two children. The murderer
had made liberal use of chloride of
lime to destroy the bodies of his vic
Tins, and his object had been in
measure attained
After the three bodies were taken
out the police continued their digging,
it being rumored that the bodies of
other women who had visited Williams
were missing. Soon the bodies of two
other children were found
The further the affair is investigated
the stronger grows the belief that VIII
liams is none other than the world
known 'JacE-the-Ripper." While a
resident OF Liverpool he made frequent
visits TO London. The police have
traced his movements between the two
places. and II has been found that his
visits to London correspondent with the
times that the unfortunate women in
the Whitechapel district were found
with their Threats cut and their bodies
mutilated
A description given to the police of
the appearance Of the men seen in the
company Of several of the unfortunate
women whose bodies we're subsequent
" found lying in pools of blood in the
streets OF Whitechapel tallies exactly
with the appearance of Williams as
given by the people il Liverpool who
were well acquainted with him
The brutality of the murder suggests
the ferocity of Jack the Ripper"
The work of concealing the bodies
was carried ont carefully. After a
deep hole had been dug, the bodies of
the woman and two of the children
were thrown in and cement was poured
upon them. The bodies of the two
other children were thrown in and
more cement was poured into the hole.
Next the fagstones were laid over the
top of the hole and finally over all was
applied a layer of cement extending
over the entire kitchen.

cording to their own laws. AS TO the
act, the Baltimore assault, this is about
as clear case Of eXonoration on the
part OF the Chilean government as they
could arrange for. The question Of
compensation to the men wounded and
to the relatives of the men killed, is one
that must rest in the judgment I the
Chilean people, unless that government
is responsible in some way.
IF that government is responsible
for the affair and refuses to make COM
pensation, OF course it is our duty to
make reprisals upon them and upon
their commerce until we get money
enough to pay for the losses sustained.

CONTRACT LABOR
1t Is Found That Thousands OF Imml-
grants Come In Illegally.

New YORK, January 23.-Contract
labor Inspectors Conkling and OSBORNE,
who were sent from this city TO the
mining districts Of Pennsylvania 10 in
vestigate the working of the alien con-
tract law have sent their report TO Sec
retary Foster OF the Treasury Depart
ment.
Their report states that they discov-
cred evidence OF wholesale violation OF
the law that was framed TO protect
American workingmen. In the mines
surrounding Scranton 1t was found that
nine tenths Of the miners al present en-
ployed are Hungarians, Italians or
Slays. Five years ago the miners there
were nearly all Americans. AT the
Arion mine in Western Pennsylvania
Major Osborne learned that Hungarian
and Italian immigrants come there In
squads OF 200 at time direct from the
barge Office in charge Of padrones.
In the mines near Carbondale In 1856
there were GOO miners, all Ameri can
citizens. While the miners strike was
on in 1889 and 1890 large numbers OF
Slavs and Hungarians were brought 10
the mines from Castle Garden under the
protection OF Pinkerton detectives. Al
the last election, out Of 7S7 miners en-
ployed there just SiXty-eight were en-
titled TO vote. The inspectors found
that immigrants were brought over
from Europe in droves, passed through
the barge office by an agent, and taken
to the mines to supercede American
miners.
There are several men employed by
the mine owners whose sole duty Is 10
visit the barge Office and get immigrant
contract laborers passed through. One
man in particular was nlck-named "The
Much Cousin Man" as he would visit
the barge office and secure the release
OF detained immigrants, claiming them
as cousins, brothers or other relatives.
The inspectors recommend more strin'
gent inspection Of immigrants passing
through the different landing places, as
al present they say the law is practically
useless, as contract laborers pass
through by thousands without detec'
tion.

A POTPOURRI
OF Washington Dispatches on the Chill
can Matter

OF Washington Dispatches on the Chill
can Matter
New YORK, January 23.-Here Is \
potpourri Of Washing dispatches on our
little muss with Chile.
II Mr.. Egan is recalled it will be only
to leave the country with the American
flag flying on his head, to go on board
one Of our cruisers and thus end diplo-
matte relations between the United
States and Chile.
To show how Mr.. Egan Is regarded
by the State Department, Assistant
Secretary Adee said: "Mr. Egan's
course in Chile has been one only TO
merit praise. i consider Mr.. Egan one
OF the best Ministers we have
In the service. Mr.. Egan = )ws
that he was diploI OF
ability, care and discretion. Through
out this case he has acted in a most
statesman-like attitude. His kilograms
have been lawyer-like in their ability
and clearness.
From other sources in the State De-
partment comes a corrobOration OF this
statement In regard TO Mr.. Egan and
the idea OF allowing recall in any other
way than with honor to Mr.. Egan is
emphatically denied.
Mr.. Russell Harrison was at the Navy
Department this morning, and
stated that there was some important
news in the Chilean controversy that
had not yet reached the public.
Mr.. Harrison was not at liberty TO
say what this news was, but there were
grounds for believing that IT meant that
President Harrison or Secretary Blaine
has sent a cattle TO President Montt,
saying that Chile must make haste In
answering the demands Of the United
States.
A reporter was informed an good au-
thority that the demand Of Chile for the
recall OF Minister Egan would
be granted at once. Univers.
al precedent compels gov
ernment to withdraw an Objectionable
official so long as friendly diplomatic
relations are sustained between two
countries.

ON MONDAY
President Harrison Will Send his Mes
sage and The Chilean Correspondence to
Congress-

sage and The Chilean Correspondence to
Congress.
CHICAGO, January 23.-The Inter
Ocean'S Washington special tonight
says: The crisis in Chilean matters is
rapidly approaching. Yesterday an ul-
timatum was sent to the Chilean Gov
ernment through Minister Egan. The
dispatth was signed by Secretary
Blaine.
1t was not communicated to the gov
ernment Of Chile through Senior Montt,
the Chilean Minister here. The latter
has no knowledge Of it, except that he
may have been advised to-day by cable
from his own government.
The dispatch was OF a peremptory
character. 1t directed Mr.. Egan to de-
mand, categorically, Of the Chilean
government, an immediate answer to
the request which had already been
made. The purpose of it is 20 inform
the Chilean government that the United
States must have an answer at once to
its demand for reparation and apology.
The Presidents message Is to be sent
to Congress on Monday, whatever may
be the answer from Mr.. Egan, or
whether or not he shall be able to OBJ
tain any answer from the Chilean gov
ernment at all.
The dispatch which was sent by the
order of the President with the approval
OF the cabinet, leaves no chance for any
one to doubt what the policy OF the ad-
ministration will be. The American
people will not be compelled to wait
long TO know what the American side
OF this controversy is. A vast amount
OF correspondence, said to comprise
hundred and sixty thousand words, pos
sibly eighty columns of the ordinary
newspaper, will be sent to Congress on
Monday, but it will not be necessary
for the paper to print, or for the people
to read any of the correspondence to
ascertain what the situation is, or what
the policy Of the government is. That
can De learned from the message OF
President Harrison, which will not be
more than three columns in length OF
any ordinary paper. That message con-
tains, compactly stated, the entire
American case.
The latest suggestion OF the Chilean
government is that there shall be
longer delay, delay, which it is esti-
mated might be equivalent to six
months, in which time the Captain Prat
would be ready for fighting. The Pres
ident will not delay six months, nor six
weeks. He has delayed three months.
That is two months and half more in
the opinion of some Of his constitutional
advisers than it was wise to have
waited. There will be no more delay.
Minister Montt, when he discovers that
he has been ignored in the critical ne
gotiations Of the last few hours, may
deem it expedient to demand his pass
ports. Such q result is not unexpected
from him by the Cabinet. The pass
ports, If demanded, would be granted.
