THUGS ARE THICK.
Huron Said to Be Overrun by
TOu0h PeODle

Huron Said to Be Overrun by
Tough People.
Special to the Globe
HURON, S. D., Jan. Huron is eX-
periencing much annoyance by gang
of toughs and drunken rowdies who
have made their headquarters here for
the past two months. So bold have they
become that the better element proposes
Kidding the city of them. A few weeks
ago the city council directed the police
to arrest the keepers of the diSOrderly
houses and proprietors of holes in me
wall and blind pigs. Thia has been
done each month and fine of S25 as
sessed against each. This they regarded
as license for the continuance of traffic
in liquors i'll defiance of the state pro-
hibit0ry law. The city enforcement
league has endeavored to close the
places, but has not succeeded. The
liquor men are bold and daring, and
swear vengeance upon those most active
against them.
A few days since three farmers from
the north part of the county were here
on business, and while awaiting the ar
rival of train on which to return home
were set upon by gang of thugs, who
believed them to be spoilers in the en-
ploy of the enforcement league. Two of
them were numerically beaten, driven
from town and compelled to walk in the
bitter cold to their homes near Hitch
cock, distance of eighteen miles. The
people of that town are greatly incensed
and demand full investigation. The
city council last night tabled resolu-
ton TO discharge the police force be-
cause of negligence of duty, but it is ey-
ident some changes will be made where
by repetition of these acts will be pre-
vented

Terrible Tragedy at an ANA
teup Performance in San
Francisco.
Miss Grace King Stumbles
and Slabs Lawyer Mccoy
to Death.
Rev. Thomas Gormley Burned
to Death at New York's
Jesuit College.
Two Ohio Girls Are Fatally
Burned by a Lamp Ex-
plosion.

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Jan. 1.-The
old year was closed last night by a
unique and terrible tragedy, by which
Sydney Mccoy. asIyoung lawyer aged
thirty-three, lost his life, and Miss
Grace King. aged nineteen, is in an un-
conscious condition. A party of about
fifty friends assembled last night at
McCoy's house on Guerrero street to
watch the old year out and the new
year in. The feature of the evenings
entertainment was the production of
short play written by Mccoy and per-
formed by amateurs. The plot Of the
play was the betrayal of band of Rus
sian nihillsts by one of their number.
The nihilists discover their traitor
and condemn her to death. They
decide by lot who shall perform the exc
cution. and the number fell to the char
acter portrayed by Mccoy. Miss King
played the part Of traitor. She is given
the choice of being killed or stabbing
herself, and chooses the latter alterna-
tive. Mccoy handed her stout dag
ger, which had been in his family for
many years. In the play the girl, in
stead of killing herself, was to stab her
eXecutioner, and as Miss King received
the knife she reached forward to touch
Mccoy OH the breast with it. At the
same instant Mccoy started toward the
girl, when she stumbled and, falling
forward with the dagger in her hand,
drove it through McCoy's heart. Mccoy
showed wonderful vitality and presence
of mind. He walked into the next
room and asked for doctor, and
then fell dead. The girl knew there
had been an accident of some kind, but
did not know Mccoy WAS killed. She
was taken home, and afterwards on
advice of friends gave herself up to the
police. She was taken to the city prison
at o'clock in the morning, and when
she entered the prison tainted, and has
since remained unconscious. This morn
ing McCoy's two brothers secured her
release by giving bonds for $4,000 for
her appearance. The girl was taken
home, and is IN a critical condition.
The accident is explained by the fact
that recently Miss King suffered from
sprained ankle, and she had been using
crutches to walk with, but had laid them
aside to practice the part in the play.
AS she made motion to stab Mccoy,
she rested her weight on the weak foot;
it gave way, and she fell forward.

CUT The HAWSER.
The Bohemia's Officers Suspected
of Unprofessional Conduct.

NEW YORK, Dec. Jan. LIT was dis
covered today that the steel hawser
with which the Umbria was towed by
the Ham steamship Be-
hernia, on Dec. "a. did not part solely
because of the strain caused by the
high seas. A clean nick in one of the
strands indicates that the haWser was
cut aboard the Bohemia. 1t is probable
that the Hamburg ship was in danger
and there was no time to back
tine engines so that the hawSer could
be cast off. 1t was partially cut by the
engineers chisel, and the strain did the
rest. Self-preservatlon alone would
warrant her in cutting the hawser and
leaving the Umbria in a helpless condi-
ton. The Bohemia is due at Hamburg
tomorrow. The Umbria will not get
new thrust shaft OH this side Of the At
lantic. The Cunard line has decided to
have the fractured part of the shaft re-
paired in such way that it will last
for one voyage at least, and be prac-
tically as good as a new shaft. This
work will consume about week. 1t is
likely that the Umbria will be ready to
sail in about ten days. She will steam
at three-quarterS speed.
Capt. James, of the steamship CALI
leo, made statement today to the eff
feet that Capt. Mckay, of the Umbrla.
refused to take tow of the Gallileo.
Capt. Mckay says he was anxious TO
have the GallileO tow him, but that
Capt. James refused to do so.

TYPHUS FEVER.
A Large Number Of Cases Re-
ported in New York.

ported in New York.
New YORK, Jan. 1.-Twenty-eight
cases of typhus fever developed today,
the majority of them coming from the
cheap lodging house No. 81 Bayard
street. from which six cases were re-
ported Saturday. All the persons
afflicted were removed to the Riverside
hospital and quarantine has been eS-
tabished at all the places where cases
were discovered. The typhus cases re-
ported to the health authorities within
the past three days now number forty.
Every precautiOn is being taken to pre-
vent the spread of the disease.
EAGLE PASS, Tex, Jan. 1.-William
Devine, a leading hide buyer. who ar
rived today from the interior of Mexico,
and who has recently visited all the
principal cities of Mexico, reports that
the accounts of the ravageS OF typhus
have not been exaggerated. The dis
ease is epidemic in AguaS Calientes,
Guanajuato and Zacatecas, and there are
a number of cases in San Luis PotoSl.
In Zacatecas and Guanaiuato the cpl
demic is at its worst, more than
500 cases being reported at present at
the former place. The mortality from
the disease is estimated at 10 to % per
cent of those stricken. The wealthy
classes do not appear to have any i'm
munity from the disease, suffering
equally with the poor. A great many
people have died, including number
of physicians. Mr.. Devine states that,
with the exception of Coahutla and
Nuevo Leon, the corn crop is failure
in Northern Mexico, and these states
will not harvest sufficient to supply
home demand.

day in the United States circuit court

Union Pacific Railroad company upon
condition that it maintaip line of tele-
graph for governmental purposes, and
that after establishing said line the rail

fears among Republicans of the state
that the Populists will endeavor to or.
ganize the house over Republican
majority of three. This belief IL
strengthened by the following quotation
from an editorial which appeared in the
last edition of the Kansas Populist, e
Peoples party paper. published here:
"The Republicans only elected A
candidates out of 125. In twenty caseG
the certificates were granted by open
fraud, perjury and forgery. Before
these words reach our readers steps
will be taken in the courts to prove this
assertion. The evidence will prove
that the villains who call themselves
Republicans are forgers. anarchists,
traitors and thieves" referring to the
state board of canvassers.
The only rights these scOundrela
have is to be hanged as traitors. If by
their action they turn loose the dogs of
war in our beloved state and city, upon
their heads will rest the responsibility.
But the people will defend their rights
by the force of arms if necessary"

FATALLY BURNED.
A Shocking Accident in an Ohio
Home

M1LLERsBURG, O.. Jan. IA young
daughter of Lewis Mively attempted to
extinguish large hanging lamp yester-
day by blowing down the chimney.
There was a terrific explosion, which
knocked the girl down and covered her
clothing with the blazing oil. A sister
sprang to her assistance, fighting the
fire with an utter disregard of her
own danger until she was horribly
burned about the arms and body. Be-
fore the burning clothing could be torn
off, the girl who caused the explosion
was fatally burned. The mother of
the girls has been confined to her
bed for some time, and was in very
feeble condition. but the spectacle of
her children being burned TO death be-
fore her moved her to the effort of get
ting out of bed and trying to get
bucket of water to throw over the suf-
fering girls. As she stopped to raise
the bucket Of water her strength gave
out and she fell heavily to the floor,
breaking her arm. The injury and
shock, coupled with her delicate state,
leave her in precarious condition.
The first daughter is dying from her
burns, and the sister is in danger from
the combined effects of her injuries and
prostration following her fight with the
fire in the effort to save her sisters life.

RIVER MAY RISE.
Mild Weather and Rain Along
Pennsylvania Streams.


Pennsylvania Streams.
PITTsBURG, Pa, Jan. 1.-River and
coal men are anXiously watching the
rivers tonight. The weather has been
very mild for thirty-slX hours, and it
has been raining here and at the head
waters since yesterday. The ice in
the first pool has been broken, but the
three upper Monongahela pools are still
frnZen solid. and il is feared that sud-
den breakup will cause great damage
to craft from gorges. On account of the
low stage of the water, however, the
river men have hopes that, if the break
comes, the ice will pass out quietly.
There was more activity about
the river fronts tonight than for
months and every precaution was
being taken to prevent disasters.
Extra guards were placed OH the boats
and care was taken that the vessels
were securely tied at their mooring
places. The river at this point was ris-
ing at 6 O'Clock with four feet on the
marks. 1t is still rising and raining at
all headwater points, but the cold wave
predicted by the weather bureau may
reach here i'll time to prevent the break.

Whiteman, of the Ortonville Her.
ald-Star, Explains His Position.
For the Office of enrolling clerk of
the senate, W. G. Whiteman, editor of
the Ortonville Herald-Star. who was the
nominee of the Republicans two years
ago, seems to be certain of being again
Endorsed for the position. Referring to
the fact that there was some opposition
to his candidacy from his own locality,
Mr.. Whiteman said: "This comes
wholly and solely from one person,
himself not resident of my dis
trict or county, and is case of pure
and simple dirty linen My loyalty
TO the Republican party and labors in
its behalf date from the time this per-
son was in his infancy" MI. White
mans paper, the Herald-Star, is recog
nized as staunch and able party paper,
and if the Republicans control he is
clearly entitled to the place.

OVERCOME BY SMOKE.
A Priest Loses His Life at a
Fire.


Fire.
New YORK, Jan. 1.--Fire invaded the
Jesuit college of st. Francis Xavier on
West Sixteenth street to-day, and Rev.
Thomas Gormley, S. j., was overcome
by smoke and died within few minutes
after he was rescued. The college is a
large granite building adjoining the
church, and contains theatre in which
debates and dramatic exercises are
held. The college boys have been pre-
pairing for the presentation of "Henry
w." next Wednesday, and one of the
teachers, J. P. Mccarthy, and Rev. j.
II. Buell. we're at work on the scenery
of the stage this morning. In some
manner not yet explained the
scenery ignited, and the stage was
soon mass of flames. Messrs.
Mccarthy and Buell. were burned
about the face and hands, but escaped
without serious injury. They gave the
alarm, and the brothers of the society,
whose living rooms were over the thea
ter, made their escape with one excep-
ton. Brother Gormley, who is old and
infrm, was in room on the top floor.
He was blinded by the smoke and lost
his way. He was found by the firemen
IN a sleeping room adjoining his own
and carried out. He died while extreme
JUNCTION was being administered. The
fire was extlnguished after the theater
and the rooms above it had been Quilted.
The damage is estimated at $4,000; in
sured. While the fire was in progress
1000 people were attending services in
the church next door. They were told
that there was no danger, and remained
until the end of the services.
