THE HONDURAS OUTRAGE.
Firing ON the American Flag Discussed
by the Cabinet.


by the Cabinet.
WASHINGTON Cry, Nov. 7.--Seretary
Gresham this morning received dispatch
from United States Minister Baker, who
was on board the steamer Costa RIGA at
Amapala when fired on by the Honduras
authorities because the captain of the YES
sci refused 10 surrender a refugee from
Honduras on board as a passenger. The
dispatch fully confirms the press reports
of firing on the United States dag. While
the ship was in the port of Amapsla the
authorities demanded the surrender of
Polecaro Barilla, who was recently con-
cerned In q revolutionary movement
against the Honduras government Tho
captain declined. After the ship had re-
ceived her clearance papers and while she
was leaving port six or seven shots were
fired TO bring her 10. Minister Baker was
on board ut the time. Whether the shots
were fired directly at her or in front is not
stated.
The matter vas discussed at a cabinet
meeting this afternoon. Capt Dow, who
was in command of the Costa RIGA, is the
same CAPTAIN who harboTed Barrundia.
who was killed on his ship several years
ago by Guatemaian authorities. IL has
been established that political refugee
who is passenger, as Barilla was, cannot
be taken from the ship he is on. The
chance presence Of the United States
minister on the vessel in this case is not
considered 20 make any difference in the
diplomatic aspects Of the case. Nothing
could be learned of what reply was sent
Minister Baker or what steps il was pro-
posed 10 take in the matter. The United
States steamship Alliance sailed yesterday
from San Jose to Acaiutia. in Salvador.
Whether this movement was occasioned
by the incident is not stated at the depart
ment

MISS MAHONEY'S DEATH.

Miss Mary Mahoney, an account of
whose sudden death near Madella was
contained in Saturdays FREE PRESS,
was a daughter of Timothy Mahoney,
who resides at 139 Fairfield street.
The remains were brought to this city
on the four o'clock train Sunday
morning and the funeral will occur at
ten o'clock tomorrow forenoon from
the house, to be followed by services
at st. Johns Catholic church.
The accident occurred at little
after two o'clock Saturday afternoon,
about balf a mile north of Madelia.
Miss MahoneY was riding out to her
boarding place with the gentleman at
whose house, she boarded, and the
team became frightened, it is thought
at a car whistle, and ran away. In
running up small incline, the driver
was thrown or pulled over the dash
board, clinging to the lines. Miss
Mahoney then jumped out, alighting
on her feet, but fell backward. strik-
ing on the back of her head. Death
was instant. The remains were taken
back to Madelia and DR.. Cooley was
called but found no cut or bruise, al
though the blood gushed freely from
the dead lady's ears.
The deceased was about % years of
age and attended the Normal school
for several years, though she did not
graduate. She was a very successful
teacher. Bright and active, she won
for herself friends by her cheerful,
happy disposition. Her death not
only casts gloom over the stricken
home, but all who knew her are filled
with sorrow at her sad and untimely
death.

ON JANUARY 31ST.
This is the Day Upon Which Further
Proceedings Will Be Taken
In The Giefer Case.

At ten O'Clock Monday, GiefeI
was brought into court and took a
seat by his attorneys, Messrs. Cray and
Young. He was looking fresh and
cheerful, and has evidently mastered
the weakness which he showed on the
day that the jury's verdict was re-
turned
Mr.. Cray moved that stay of pro-
ceedings until Jan. 31st, at ? p. M, be
granted, to allow the defense time to
prepare case or bill of exceptions
upon which to prepare motion for a
new trial. The court reporter will be
absent at the Blue Earth City term
of court and it will be utterly impos-
sible to prepare for the motion be-
fore the date named.
The court stated that it could not
see how transcript Of the evidence
could be made before that time
There is no certainty that the Blue
Earth City term of court will be con-
cluded before then. The court there
fore ordered that a stay of proceed
ingS be had until Jan. 31st, when a
case or bill of exceptions can be pre-
Sented for settlement or allowance at
the present term. The defendant
was remanded back to jail.
1t is probable that the present
county attorney will appear for the
State until the case is finally settled.
After disposition had been made of
several civil cases, court took a recess
until Jan. 31st, at that time besides
the above matter, several equity cases
will be tried by the court without a
jury.
County Attorney Hughes has been
the busiest attorney at. the present
term of court. He has had business
in the court every day since Dec. 9th,
and has discharged his duties faith
fully and conscientiously. The num-
Der and variety of important GRIMM
al cases that came up were enough to
rack the brain of any prosecuting at
tOrney. The outcome in each case is
satisfactory to the people of the
county.

JAIL DELIVERY AVERTED.

Monday morning, as Deputy Bowen
was looking through the cells OF the
jail, as is his custom, he found steel
saw secreted in Mills cell, in the up
per corridor. 1t is about fourteen
inches long, twO-thirdS of an inch
wide and quite thin. 1t was shown
to Captain It. III. Andrews, who states
that while the steel is not very hard
a man could saw through the grating
in the windows of the jail in an hour
and make his escape. A man could
saw his way out of his cell, out of the
corridor and out of Jail in few hours
1t cannot be found that the saw had
yet been made use of anywhere, but
it is thought that when an Opportun-
ty arrived it would have been used to
liberate the prisoner,
The prisoners were questioned about
the saw, but all denied any knowledge
of where it came from or of having
seen it before. The officers have no
means of knowing who is responsible
for it. Few persons will doubt, how
ever, that it was struggled into the
jail by Giefers wife, and by him con-
cealed in the cell of fellow prisoner
in his corridor. Giefer has more inte-
rest than all of the other prisoners ia
liberating himself. He has already
attempted to escape, his mother
smuggling in the tools. He also tried
to escape when arrested in Iowa.
Sheriff Glynn states that hereafter,
as long as prisoners charged with
murder are in his custody, no rela-
tives of any of the prisoners will be
allowed to visit the prisoners, or enter
the prisoners department.. This will
shut off any attempts at smuggling
in means by which Jail delivery may
occur. Giefer is desperate man and
may be expected to resort to desperate
means to free himself.

A $50, 100000 DAMAGE SUIT.

An important suit has just been
commenced in the Fifth judicial dis
trict at Waseca. NicholasJ. kremer is
the plaintiff and Peter Kremer ST.,
Mathilda Witte, Waldo D. Ketcham,
VIM. Fischer, Joseph Putt, Herman
Borchert, Herman Neitzel, M. e.
Fuller and John A. Johnson are the
defendants. The plaintiff claims the
title to and possession of several
thousand acres of land situated in
Faribault, Waseca and Blue Earth
counties, and also asks for $1,000
damages which he claims he has suf-
fered through the unlawful possession
and use of the land by the defendants.
The attorneys for the plaintiff are
John A. Lovely and Henry A. Nor
gan, of Albert Lea, and Frank E. Put
nam, of Blue Earth City.
Nicholas and Peter Kremer are
brothers. About seven years ago the
former failed in business at Minnesota
Lake, and his brother, Peter, took the
land in question and paid the heavy
membranes upon it, and has dis
posed Of portions of it. By improve
ments and the general rise in value
of farm lands he has been able to
come out ahead and save most of the
land. This is the state of affairs as
we learn it, and this being SOFT seems
rather ungrateful that both the land
and such heavy damages should be
asked for at this time. The case will
be tried at Waseca.

These Fine Compilations.

Quilp says that he meets many
pretty girls on his way to the office
early in the morning-girls with
bright, lovely complexions, and he
has often wondered how they man
aged to make themselves look SO
fresh and blooming when they have
so much work to do. He says that
IN looking over the columns of an
exchange he has at last found out
the secret. 1t is clear, he says.
that these girls, or a great majority
of them, have on rising in the morn
ing frightened their faces with a salt
bath, refreshed their complexion
with Just dash of orange water, "
wiped the eyes with rosewater and
glycerin, used 2 mere sprinkle of
rich powder, and tnen insisted on
their mother giving them an orange,
a glass of hot milk and a swallow of
elder water. There is apt at times to
be a tinge of sarcasm in what Ouilp
says.-Buffalo Commercial.
