AFTER CLUES.

Cleveland, Nov. 21.--The police are
securing the city for clues which will
lead to the arrest of the gang of incendi-
aries who made a vain but desperate at
tempt to destroy several large manu-
featuring institutions in the East end at
en- early hour yesterday morning. At
the hour mentioned fire broke out at the
H. p. nail works in four different places
and at exactly the same time. This could
not possibly have happened had it not
been the work of inccndiaries. Each of
the four fires We're started in different
parts of the building. Shortly after the
flames had been e%xtinguishel fire was dis
co, cred at kraus 4 Co.'s lumber yards
at the foot of Cass avenue. Almost at
the same time fire was discovered in sew
eral cars on the Lake Shore track.
Fortunately the fire department. was able
to extinguish the flames before they did
any damage.

SO1rrH DAKOTA CASES.

Washington, Nov. 21.-Decisions in "
South Dakota cases were handed down in
the supreme court yesterday. Biddena
Elliott loses her case against the Mil
warkee road. Her husband was section
boss at Meckling, s. D., and WAS killed
by a freight train making IA flying switch,
contrary to the rules of the road. The
case was argued for the plaintiff on the
grounds that the road was responsible for
the act Of its conductor, who was by
the rules of the road the deceased's SUI
perior officer. The decision is against the
widow on the ground of %contributory
negligence on the part of Elliott. The
other ease is that of J.. Leslie Thompson,
receiver. VS.. The Sioux Falls National
Bank, Thompson seeking to recover the
value of a certified check among the as
sets of the First National bank, Of which
he was receiver. which had been obtained
under peculiar circumstances by one
Howard, treasurer of Minnehaha county.
to make his accounts gooa. The case
was taken away from the jury in the
lower court by the judge and decided in
favor of the alleged innocent purchasers.
The supreme court holds that this ques-
tion was one for the jury and not for
the judge. The case is therefore re-
manded to the supreme court of South
Dakota with instructions to send it to the
lower court of Moody county for re-
trial.

FILING ON SPOKANE.

Spokane. WASH, Nov. 21.-There is
great excitement here yer a telegram re-
cei,ed yesterday from Washington that
the lands formerly belonging to the North
rrn Pacific Railroad company here had
lapscd back to the government again by
recent court decisions. Hundreds of set
tiers, young and old, spent all night filing
claims, and to-day the scene is as busy
as ever. The lands are located neal the
Northern Pacific depot and in the central
portion of the city. The railroad officials
here scout the idea that the railroad ON
pany is disposscssed of the land, but
several district attorneys claim other
wise. Two squads of policemen are on
the ground to preserve order, but so far
no violence has been reported.

4 MASSACRE is RECALLED
An INCIDENT IN THE EARLY DAYS
OF MINNESOTA.
A Bill to Reinm burse Minnesota for
Rescue Work Done by Citizens
During the chippewa Indian
War.

st. Paul. Nov. 21.-Col. Kiefer expects
to return to Washington about Nov. 80,
and one of the first matters to which he
expects to attend after the assembling Of
congress will be the introduction of a bill
to reimburse Minnesota for $3,0S9.21 eX-
pended by tie Territory of Minnesota in
the %recapture of some women prisoners,
taken by the Indians during the Sioux
massacre in 1862, and in an expedition
against the Chippewls at Sunrise river,
ChisagO county, two years later. Col.
kiefer has been looking up the matter
since he came home, and will introduce
the bill as soon as possible after the
opening of congress. He will also endeav-
or to have it referred to the committee
on claims, Of which he is Il member,
rather than to the committee Oh Indian
affairs. Both the wars are we'll remem-
bered by the old settlers here. Col
Flandrau was Indian agent for the
Sioux at the time Of the massacre. The
uprising was nearly as serious as theo one
by the Sioux two years before and was
qrickly put down. The main facts in
10th are set forth in a letter to Congress
man Cousins of Iowa by Secretary of
State Brown, in which he simply states
the case us he finds it on record, and he

citing the facts in connection with the
Sioux outbreak, giving the names Of the
captives and the mnnner of their re-
capture. Col. Flandrau, in his letter to
the secretary of state, says that the
Spirit Lake massacre occurred i'll March,
1862. The Sioux killed some forty-two
white people and carried into captivity
four white women Mrs. Noble, Mrs.
Thatcher, Mrs. Marble and Mrs. Abbie
Gardner. Col. Flandrau was instrument
al in the rescue Of Mrs. Marble and Mrs.
Gardner, and paid $1,000 to the two
Indians who rescued and brought in Mrs.
Marble. He then expended $SS9.12 in
an outfit for an expedition composed of
Indians to rescue Mrs. Gardner, and for
their services paid them $1,000. He also
expended In presents to s~ympathizing In
dams 300, making q total of $2,9S9.21,
which was refunded to him by the ter
ritory out of the $4,000 appropriated for
that purpose.

TO HELP THE POOR.

indianapolis. Nov. 21.-The great num-
bt> of unemployed in this city has made
public ASTON necessary. The Commercial
club has issued a statement in which it
sGys that u registration Office will be
opened in the club building that reliable
information as to persons in need of en-
ployment may be obtained. Arrange
ments have been made with the charity
organizations to relieve all destitute
cases. To carry Oh the, work contribu-
tions will be necessary. The committee,
Mayor Denny and others have held a rom
ference on giving employment to the idle.
1t has been feared that the project would
cause many idle men from other points
to come here. Some who drift here want
support without work. These will be
put to work breaking stone.

be done, but it appears likely that MI.
Dart, who is still in possession of the
Office, will wait for the governor to in
stitute proceedings to remove him. He
is now in Minneapolis, presumably to con-
suit counsel. The matter is complicated
by the fact that Mr.. Dart resigned at the
request of the county commissioners and
was afterward reelected by a vote of 3
to 2. 1t appears that he now seeks to
raise the question as to whether he can
be suspended for an offense committed
when nc was in Office the first time.
