NO RESPECT FOR HIsEwIFE.

Phil Wissing's Remarkable speech.in the
New York Assembly.
ALBANY, N. Y, April ia sensation
was created in the assembly today by
an address by Phil Wissing of the Eighth
New York assembly district.
He spoke on the Yetmen woman
suffrage bill, and every sentence con.
tanned an ambiguous meaning of a
questionable character. Women crowd
ed into the chamber to hear the debate
on the bill, and not only the floor but
the galleries were thronged with
them. Colonel Webster sprang to his
feet in towering rage and demanded
that Wissing be called to order and that
his language be expunged from the
records. A dozen members seconded
the demand, and the motion to expunge
carried in laundering tones. Mrs. Mar
garet ]. Hoey, representing the
women's labor organization, said she
would bring the matter to the attention
OF every labor organization in the state,
and see that Wissing does not
come back to the legislature again to
insult modest women, who fought inde-
cency. The most extraordinary part of
the proceedings was that Wissing's own
wife sat within few feet of where he
stood. The bill passed by a vote of SO
to "a, but will not pass the senate.

A BOGUS HEIR.
Harry Chester Not Entitled to the Louise
Chester Estate.

Harry Chester Not Entitled to the Louise
Chester Estate.
New YORK, April 15.-A morning pa
per states that it has indisputable evil
dence that the claim of Harry Chester
of California to the estate of the
late Louise Chester of Brooklyn,
is not valid. Efforts will be made to
have the case reopened next week, and
if possible, stop further disposition
of the property. More than half
of it is already gone, but perhaps
an amount equal to $4,000 or
10000 may yet be saved. The paper
states that the evidence is overwhelm-
ing. Louise Chester and Henry Chester
belonged to two entirely different
families. In fact they were
no kin whatever, and therefore
the putting forward Of the man from
Happy Camp as the legal heir to SOS, 900
left by the dead woman in Brooklyn is
unwarranted.

NOT A PHARMACIsr.
A Decision That VIII Interest Druggists
Throughout the State.

A Decision That VIII Interest Druggists
Throughout the State.
SACRAMENTO, April 15.- Superior Judge
Van Fleet rendered an important deci-
sion today, which interests druggists
throughout the state. Thomas Y. Tall
man, the manager of local drug store
on J street, applied to the state
board of pharmacy for certificate of
registration as practicing pharmacist,
but was refused it on the ground that he
was not what he claimed to be; he was
simply conducting a place for another.
Tallman then brought suit in the supe-
rior court for writ of mandate to
compel the board to issue the desired
certificate. The court decided against
Tallman. The petitioner cannot,
says the court, in the sense
of the statute, be held to
be the conductor of the pharmacy or
drug store IN which he is employed. He
is engaged to manage the business of
the store for his employer, with, it is
true, considerably enlarged powers over
the ordinary drug clerk, but neverthe-
less, as the evidence discloses, with
out the right to final discretion which
would make him other than the
clerk or agent of his employer, subject
to dismissal at all times. This being 30,
he does not fall within the definition of
one entitled to certificate as a phar-
naciat

CHICAGO, April 15.-World's Fair Di-
rectors Winston and Odell returned from
Washington this evening, and said they
were not long in Washington before they
discovered that congress would not vote
money for stock in the exposition
they, therefore. changed their tactics
and informed the committee that loan
would be accepted. "Not having time
to consult the committee, we did what
we thought BEST" said Winston. Vice.
President Higinbotham says the di-
rectory will not accept loan. A di-
rectors' meeting will be held tomorrow,
when the matter will probably come up

Damage by Wind and Hail in Portions

PETERSBURG, Va, April 15.-This vi
cinity has been visited by terrific
wind, rain and hail storm. In Dinwid-
die county the wind attained the veloc-
ity Of cyclone, and houses,
barns and fences were leveled and
trees uprooted. The residence OF Milton
R. Rose at Stony creek was carried from
it's foundations and crushed to pieces.
Mrs. Rose was instantly killed, the other
members of the family escaping unin-
jured, but it is stated servant girl
was also killed. 1t is feared other
damage not yet reported, was done. In
Norfolk the wind attained velocity of
sixty miles an hour, and hail stones as
large as walnuts fell, doing considerable
damage to trees and early crops. At

roundhouse, nearly twenty feet high,
was razed to the ground. The schooner

SOUTHERN BOOMERS.
HOrdes OF Homesoekers Ready For tn
Rush Next ThursdaY.

Rush Next Thursday.
Ell RENO, O.. T., April 15.-Boomers
continue to pour in all along the border,
but the crowd will not be as great as
that which entered Oklahoma. The
boomers don't seem to have cash,
though most have -four and bacon and
hundreds realize that they are not in
condition to hold down a claim, but
hope TO secure good piece of land and
sell it out in day or so. If they fail,
they will be reduced almost to starva-
tion. Perhaps $4,000 people are ready
to enter from the east. and 5000 from
Wichita county, while about 5000
Texans are drawn up on the south line.
There are not many people on the west
side, but come 5000 are cantonned on
the east, and 1900 on the west. No
trouble is yet reported and none ls an
ticipated.
KINaFIsHER, o. T., April 15.-There is
an unconfrmed rumor that two "soon-
ers" were killed yesterday in the Chey-
enne and Arapahoe reservation, for re-
sisting arrest. Dense crowds of colo
nists continue to come by wagon and
train. The excitement increases. Peo-
pie of all classes are preparing for a
wild rush next Tuesday.

ITALIAN INDEMNITY.
Trouble Ahead for the State Department

Trouble Ahead for the State Department
for Its Arbitrary Act.
NEW YORK, April 15.-According to
the Herald's Washington correspondent,
there is trouble ahead for the state de-
partment, resulting from the payment
of indemnity to the Italian government
out Of the contingent fund of the state
department. Not because indemnity
has been agreed upon. is fault found,
but because the president assumed the
right to pay it without consulting con-
gress. The correspondent says the
members of the committee on foreign
affairs in both houses are very indignant
at what they characterize as the arbi-
trary use of the sum of $4,000, which
has been annually voted for some years
as contingent fund.

Success Of the Tankamtne Process.

PEORIA, H., April 15.-Twenty-two
and one.fifth quarts of alcohol to the
bushel of corn were made in large mash
at the Woolner distillery here last
night by the Tankamine process.
Obstacles have been successfully
overcome, and the predictions OF
the inventor verified increased
yield of over two quarts of alcohol to the
bushel, in addition to the large savings
made in the cost of the original grain
bill, and the great feature of economy
in it's introduction into any modern
equipped distillery.

AN IRRESISTIBLE TIDE.
II is estimated that 1000 people made
rush from Browns valley, about 500
from Travers and some 800 from Whea-
ten, in spite OF the efforts of the owner
OF a private bridge to stem the flood of
boomers across the bridge, in the inter-
est of land company. The police force
was overwhelmed and lost in the strug-
gle for the bridge. A large crowd also
set out from Ledgerwood. There was
a wild rush from Hankinson. A
solid line south of there was waiting
the opening, and in several instances
half a dozen made for the same claim,
and trouble is feared. At Waubay, on
the southwest some 300 or 600 Joined in
the rush. From Wilmot there was
great rush, and train on the Milwau-
kee road pulled to the end of the track,
from whence, at the signal, the boomers
rushed TO the lands on fast mustangs,
which were provided by Indians at big
prices. In fact the Indian was great
man all over the reservation today.
GOOD ORDER MAINTAINED.
The on-lushing boomers from the
north, west and east met in the reserva-
stion, and if there is any trouble, it will
come from difficulties over choice Sec
tions to which settlers raced from differ
ent directions. Governor Mellette of
South Dakota, with 250 deputy sheriffs,
heavily armed and instructed to main
tain order, is on the reservation. Every
section in Coddington county, of which
Watertown is the comfy seat, was oc-
cupied by from one to five squatters be-
fore l O'Clock. Numerous alterations en-
sued, but no bloodshed is reported.
There is an unconfrmed report of the
killing OF squatter in Grant county,
but no particulars OF this or any other
serious trouble have been received. 1t
is believed the deputy sheriffs and mil
ita will be able to maintain order.
FILINGS AT THE LAND OFFICE.
At Fargo 100 filings were made in the
course Of the afternoon, Rev. Vanhorn
of the Baptist church, Presiding Elder
Cooper of the Methodist church, and
lady being among the number. A num-
ber of filers will probably lose their
claims through squatters reaching the
land first.
Three thousand men were in line be.
fore the land Office at Watertown. The
first place in the line sold for $4,000, and
the 126th for 5000. Everything passed
off quietly. Lee Slower, local attor-
nev, who purchased first place at ex-
actly noon, filed one declaratory, and
rendered ITO others, which were re-
jected. Filing proceeded rapidly, and
it is thought the line will be exhausted
by night.
PLENTY OF LAND LEPT.
Estimates place the number of set
tiers who went on the reservation today
at from $500 to 5000. Every person that
wanted claim got one, and there seems
to he plenty of land left.
Many equatters have already begun
the erection of houses, but the majority
commenced settlement by digging wells
and cellars, or by plowing the coil.

DECREAsED SEAL CATCH.
The Victoria Fleet Meeting With Poor
Huccaaa.

WASHINGTON, April 15.-The depart
ment of state has received further
advices from Victoria, B. c., az
to the success attending the feet
of vessels now engaged in hunting
seals on the Pacific. The steamer Mys.
terry, which is engaged to take off the skins
secured by the vessels now at sea, has
returned, and the total catch to date, re-
ceived at Victoria, is reported to be 456O.
This is regarded as light catch, and is
attributed in part to bad weather, but
mainly to the fact that the seals are re.
ported to be much less numerous than
in former years.
