The Police After MITCHELL.

BY Associated Press to The News.
New YORK, Sept. 27.-Police
Superintendent Byrnes will not
admit he is after Charley Mitchell,
the English pugilist, for having vi.
olated the law in signing articles
with Corbett in this city. 1t is
generally believed among sporting
men he will &c. his hands on Mitch

blance of provocation. It's known
the superintendent is not in love
with the Englishman because of
his personal characteristics, and the
inference Is but natural, if Byrnes
can bother the fighter he will Jump

PEASANTS KILLED.
Italian Gendarmes Have a Ter
rible Battle With Squatters in
SiciIlian Town.
Eight of the Peasants Shot to
Death and Twenty Severely
Wounded.

ROME, Jan. PA terrible bat be-
tween 600 peasants and body of gen.
darmes occurred at Termini, seapor
town in Sicily, today. Eight of the
peasants were killed and twenty were
severely wounded. A large number of
women were among the rebellious peas
ants, but it is not known that any of
them are numbered among the dead or
wounded. The fight was caused by the
refusal of the peasants 10 vacate tract
of land, the ownership of which is
claimed by the commune. Recently
peasants began to squat on the tract,
and in short time six hundred or
more had established there. The
attention of the authorities was
called to the fact. Formal notice was
sent to the squatters ordering them to
vacate. They paid no attention to the
order, and when spoken to about it re-
piled that the soil was their own and
they could not leave. Upon learning
that the peasants had refused to obey
the notice the authorities sent body of
gendarmeS with orders to eject the
squatters by force if necessary. The
peasants resisted. and fierce struggle
ensued. The gendarmes fired upon
the peasants, killing eight of them and
wOunding twenty. A number of the
peasants were taken prisoners. and
others fled to the interior, swearing
vengeance upon the gendarmes and the
authorities.

PREPARING FOR WAR.
Russia Massing Troops on Her
Western Frontier

LONDON, Jan. 21.-Dispatches from
Warsaw show that while the czar sends
his son to Berlin with a diamond dia-
dem for the emperor's sister, and makes
profession as to his love Of peace, he is
pursuing steadily his preparations for
war. Three divisions of infantry are
now breaking up their quarters i'll the
\ Caucasus, and in few weeks will be
in Russian Poland under the command
of the German-hating general, GOurko.
These three divisions, together with
the division taken to Kieff two
years ago, will make two more
army corps for Russia on
her western border. Thus Russia's
army within immediate cali for fighting
against Germany and AustrO-Hungary
will amount to twenty-five army corps,
or an army as large as Italy or Austro.
Hungary now commands. Neither in
the Volga district nor i'll Russian Po-
land has the cholera disappeared, and
hence the Importation of troops from
Saratotf and Asia Minor is likely to lead
to a fresh and violent outbreak of the
epidemic as soon as the new divisions
arrive. just why the men in st. Peters
burg, who know this, should hurry on
the Caucasian infantry to the German
frontier is mystery, unless the easy
and apparently unavoidable eXplana-
ton be accepted that the cZar expects
trouble before the end of 1898.

YANKToN, S. D., Jan. 21.-The excite.

banking house of George X. Scougal q
Co.. occasioned by the death of the
senior member week ago, has reached
high pitch. Much ugly talk is afioat
and some of the depositors are making

and some excitable individuals today
were talking about opening the grave

Besides this, the arrest of Will

and bookkeeper of the firm, has
been suggested. He is almost crazed by
grief and business worry and is believed
to be in nowise responsible for the I'M

death. Meantime the investigation into
the banks condition by Receiver Cra-
vens continues and will not be finished
until Monday night. The heaviest de-
position was the Dakota Masonic Aid
society, OF which Scougal was treasurer.
Funds amounting to $1,000 were in the
bank, but this loss will be made good by
ScOugaPs bondsmen. The dead man
carried life insurance amounting to S2S,-

THE MONTANA DEADLOCK.
1t May Last Couple OF Weeks
Yet.

HELENA, Mont, Jan. 21.-For two
weeks the legislature has been ballotlng
for United States senator to succeed
Senator Sanders, whose term expires
next March. Sanders received the
caucus nomination of the Republicans,
and, barring pairs, has held the thirty
three votes OF his party OH every ballot:
Lately there has been talk OF
another candidate in his place, but 1t is
not probable that any other nominee
will appear until Sanders has seen that
he cannot command as many votes as
any other Republican, in which event
he declares he would willingly step out.
Dispatches from Taubeneck to the Pop
ulists say that prominent Republicans
in Washington express the beilef
that if the Popuilsts put up Cald-
we'll Edwards. Populist, as a candl-
date, the Republican members would
JON in electing him. This is looked
upon here as absurd. There is. OF course,
some restiveness OH the part of about
half a dozen Republicans as anti-San-
ders men, but who vote for him as the
choice of the party caucus. There
are no signs Of their breaking
away from the party line. They
are working for the PopullSt vote on
the ground that by the election of a Re-
publican the third party will hold the
balance of power in the national senate:
which they would lose if Montana
should choose Democrat. The i0pn-
lists have given up hope of electing any
one of their own political faith. and
while they have lately voted for DEM
ocrat. the Republicans have hope OF
eventually capturing them.
The Democratic camp is somewhat
broken up. They first went into the
legislature without caucus nominee:
Later the forces of W. A. Clark and
ex-Gov. Hauser joined in caucus and
agreed on Clark. The DAILY men, how
ever, absented themselves from this
caucus and have so far. in spite of all
inducements brought to bear, steadfastly
refused to recognize Clark as the choice
of the party. Their full strength has
been given on every ballot to Congress
man Dixon. and they have gained in
stead of losing votes. While the chances
are in favor of the Democrats at present,
it is impossible to predict whether
either faction will be successful or
whether the internecine struggle Will
result in the election of Republican
after a weary struggle. 1t is not un-
likely from present indications that the
deadlock may last two weeks yet.
