MINoT, N. D., May 16.-The bodies OF
two sons of Hans Hanson, farmer on
Des Lacs river, above this place,
were found this morning, with every in
dicaton that they had been poisoned.
The boys left their fathers ranch Sun
day morning to 90 up on the hills and
drive sheep back. Nothing was seen or
heard of them, and searching party
was organized. They were found about
a mile from the ranch, both dead,
and the position of their bodies
was evidence that frightful agonies
had attended the dying struggles. The
Youngest was lying on his neck in a
shallow pool of water. The other was
found about 500 feet away, lying face
downward on the ground, with his
hands tightly clinched above his head.
He had apparently been taken violently
ill. The grass around him was beaten
down, and every indication pointed to
the fact that he died a most violent
death. From appearances the conclu-
sion was reached that the boys met their
death from poisning by strychnine,

NOT A CLOSED SEA.
Russell Discusses the Treatie
Between England, Russia and
the United States. =
He Claims That Great Britain
Had Never Ceased Her Objec-
tions to Eussia's Claims.

PARIS, May 16.-Sir Charles Russell
resumed his argument today in behalf
OF the British case before the Behring
sea tribunal of arbitration. Sir Charles
argued that the seizures made of Brit
ish vessels in Behring sea were not
iustifable, and he reviewed at length
the origin and nature of the rights
transferred by Russia to the United
States in 1867 Sir Charles claimed
that the ukase Of 1899, in which Russia
asserted jurisdiction over her subjects
on ALL hunting grounds and establish
ments on the coast of America, from
the fifty-tifth degree OF north latitude
to Behring straight and thence
southwark to Japan and on the
Aleutian. Kurile and other islands i'll
all the Northeastern ocean," applied
only to Russian subjects. The ukase of
1921, in which the czar of Russia laid
claim to exclusive jurisdiction over the
northwest coast of America down to the
ffty-first parallel of latitude, together
with considerable portion Of the op-
posite coasts of Asia and the height ]r-
ing seas, to the extent of 100 Ital an
miles from any part OF the coasts aud
intervening. Islands so appropriated,
had, Sir Charles Russell pointed out,
ELECTED earliest protests both from
Great Britain and the United States,
and subsequent treaties recognized that
the pretenSion of Russia to exclusive
Jurisdiction over the waters of Behring
sea was untenable. Hence the rights
derived from Russia by the United
States were merely the ordinary prop
erty right in the soil. and not in the
seals.
Sir Charles Russell devoted the aft
ernoon to discussing the treaties con-
cluted in the years 1S24-25 between
Russia, England and the United States.
Sir Charles endeavored TO prove from
the language of the treaties in question
that Great Britain had never departed
from her objection to Russia's clam of
exclusive jurisdiction in Behring sea.
and that Behring sea was not mare
clausum, but that all nations had
right to free navigation in that sea. Sir
Charles incidentally required to the
forged iuterpolations in Russian docu-
ments to sustain the American case. He
said that he was soIry if he had unin-
tentionally caused umbrage, but he
would have to make further illusions to
the fUrgerieS, as not until the forgeries
were discovered was the claim of prop
erty IN the seals elaborated.

ROUGH ON sAVAGEs.
They Get Nice Raw Breeze FROM
Lake Michigan.

CHICAGO, May 16.-The attendance
at the worlds fair today was not nearly
SO great as that of yesterday. The
weather was anything but pleasant. A
raw, sharp wind blew from the north
east, and for the greater portion of the
day the sky was concealed from view
by heavy clouds. The air WAS damp,
and things in general seemed to con-
spire to make the fair an unattractive
place. The savages from the interior
of Africa, from Egypt and the wilds of
Asia, who are temporarily quartered in
the Midway Plaisance, were unusually
gloomy, and, if possible, more filthy
than common in their tenn
porary abOdes. They sat about the
stoves in their quarters. and shivered
and shook with cold, and looked desc
late and hOmesick. The Dahomeyians
and Soudanese wound themselves up in
their badly soiled garments, while the
Turks and Arabs and M0ors moped
about and looked sick, and at noon
bowed themselves toward the East, and
prayed to Allah for warm weather.
The most active people at the fair to-
day were the official representatives of
Norway and about hundred members
of local Norwegian societies. They
were preparing for the opening of the
Norwegian exhibit tomorrow. 1t is eSti-
mated that from $1,000 to 10000 Nor
Wegian citizens of Chicago will attend
the opening exercises.

BATTLE OF The BREEDS.

Results Up to Date OF the Tests
OF Merits Of Cows.
CHICAGO, May 16.-The dairy bust
ness now going On at the stock barns in
the south end of the grounds may be
called veritable battle of the breeds.
1t Is too early as yet to form any opin-
ion of the merits of the different breeds
of cattle engaged in the test. Owing to
the severity of the conditions but three
breeds were entered Jerseys, Guern-
seys and twenty of
each being selected from a large num-
Der that have been on the grounds for
some weeks. All of these are
from the United States ex-
cept three Shorthorns from Onta-
rio, Canada. The first test-for
cheese only-commenced on the 11th
instant, and will continue for thirty
days. A rest of ten days will then be
given. and then ninety days test
for butter ana cheese-will commence.
The milk is tested by the lactometer
for specific gravity. The percentage of
butter in composite samples of milk
taken from each breed was: Jersey, 4.6
to At: Guernsey, "A to As; ShOrthorn.
SO to 3.S. The largest quantity of milk,
200 pounds, or daily average of fifty
pounds. was given by one of the On
tariO Shorthorns; the richest milk from
an individual COW was from one of the
American ShorthornS.

IGNORED the SUMMONS.

KANSAS CITY, May 1G.-J. J. Nolan,
manager for Walter Damrosch, director
of the New York symphony orchestra,
entered into contract with Henry
MacLachan to give two concerts in this
city today. Later, Mr.. Nolan, believing
that Mr.. MacLachlan could not perform
his part of the agreement, broke the
contract. MacLachlan brought suit for
$4,000 damages. Mr.. Damrosch, to
avoid having papers in the case served
on him, arranged that his private
ear, when the train hauling it
should reach this city en- route
TO Omaha should be detached
and left in Kansas while the change OF
engines was made. The engineer OF the
train thought he had Obeyed instruc-
tions, but in the labyrinth of tracks and
among the thousands of freight cars in
the wards, ne missed the state line by
about 100 feet. SO when Missouri dep
uty constable appeared in the car no
found Mr.. Damroscb on Missouri soil
and served the papers, among which
was one summoning the orchestra
leader to appear at certain attorney
Office at Q O'Clock and have his deposition

mons and started for Omaha in his prl-

WASHINGTON, May l6.-The message
of Secretary Gresham to Minister Snow
den at Madrid Of Sunday night inform
ing him of the conclusions reached by
the administration upon the matter Of
the reception and entertainment of the
Infanta Eutalie, which was at once con-
veyed to the Spanish minister of foreign
affairs, was apparently satisfactory to
the government of Spain, inaSmuch as
the captain general Of Cuba received in
structiOnS yesterday TO have the pro-
gFamme governing the infanta's move
ments, as originally prepared, carried
out i'll the departure of her highneSs and
suite from Havana for New York. The
intanta is expected to arrive in New
York Friday morning, the 18th, and
come direct to Washington after leaving
the ship. The programme for her stay
in this city includes dinner to the in
fanta and party by President and Mrs.
Cleveland at the White house.
Commander Davis, of the navy, who
will act as the representative of the
president in escortipg the Spanish in
fanta during her visit in the United
States, received his final instructions at
the state department, aud this afternoon
he left Washington for New York.
Commander Davis saw Private Secre-
tary Thurber prior to his departure. No
questions were asked by the commander
in reference to the matter of her enter
talnment while i'll this city, and no i'll
formation bearing on that subject was
given him, SO that the action of the
president with reference to the infanta
remains as much a mystery as ever.

The twenty-four carpenters and staff
workers erecting the band paviions in
administration plaza who struck yes
terday for back pay are still out. The
men have not been paid for three or
four weeks, and another months pay
was due Oh the 10th. The contractors
have been putting them off from day to
day with the information that they will
be paid when the exposition gives them
the money due on the contract. Many
of the contractors are behind in their
payments, and as they tell the work.
men they cannot get their money from
the treasury, the belief is gaining
ground among the laborers that the ex-
position is without money. The red
tape necessary on the proper audit
ing and forwarding of accounts
through the departments is no doubt
responsible for part Of the delay,
but the men fail to see why it
takes three weeks to have their monthly
accounts audited. There are about
1000 janitors and helpers Oh the grounds
who have not received their pay for the
last month and another pay day is due
in ten days. When the attention Of A.
f. Seeberger, treasurer Of the eXpOSi
ton, was called to the complaint OF tn
janltOrs and other Workmen at the fail
regarding the non-payment of long
overdue wages, he said:
Il don't know why any of these men
are complaining. They are being paid
just as fast as the pay rolls can be made
out. OF course there has been some
delay in the preparation of the pay rolls.
They cannot be helped where there are
thousands of men to pay every week.
But as for the report that the exposl-
ton company is short of money and
cannot pay its employees and the con-
tractors, there is no foundation for even
suspicion in that direction. OF course
our funds are not as large as they would
have been if the weather had been
favorable to large attendance, but we
will meet all emergencies"

LOOKS RATHER QUEER.
Serious Charges Against tho Late
Commissioner OF Patents.

Serious Charges Against tho Late
Commissioner OF Patents.
WASH INGToN, May 16. For some
weeks past rumors have been in circu-
lation in the interior department which
have brought into serious question the
official conduct of W. E. Simonds, late
commissioner of patents. Several days
ago one of the most prominent firms of
patent attorneys in this city wrote a
letter to Commissioner Seymour stating
that they had received information
from a source believed to be trust
worthy that certain applications in the
celebrated telephone case of Daniel
Drawbaugh, in the secret archives of
the patent office, had been copied under
the authority of Mr.. Simons while COM
missioner. by parties outside OF the pat
ent office, all OF which was contrary to
law. They asked that at official in
vestigation be had, and that they
be informed of the facts in
order that they might take such
action as the interests of their
clients might seem to warrant. Upon
the matter coming to the attention Of
Secretary Smith, he Immediately Or
dered an investigation, which, it is un-
derSt0oQ, IS practlcally completeQ. III
is stated, however, that the forthcoming
report of the investigation will contain
facts of a character not easily explain
able. 1t is also rumored that other i'm
portant applications pending in the
patent offices have also been copied in
violation OF the law. Its further stated
that during the latter part of Mr..
Simonds' administration of the patent
office, he compiled pamphlet contain
ing ninety-siX pages of closely printed
matter entitled CONDENSED Treatise
on the Law of Patents" This pam
phlet, which contains approximately
300, 900 words, is said to have been type
written by government clerks during
Office hours. Other allegations of
equally serious character are made by
persons who claim to be in position to
know the facts.

Columbian Guards Imprison a Big
Man in the White City.

CHICAGO, May 16.-Columbian guards
laid violent hands on Chief Allison, of
manufacturers and liberal arts, late last
night, and there is music in the air in
consequence. The chief Is not only bent
on having the scalp of every guard who
took hand in his arrest, but he is deter
mined to obtain an apology from his
higher officers. The department chief
presented himself at the exposition
gates with several assistants at nearly
the midnight hour. He showed his
credentials and passports, gave his
name and stated that his business at
that hour was to superintend some i'm
portant work of installation. The
guards on duty not only refused to ad
nit the chief Of the biggest department
in the White City. but they discredifed
his story ard doubted if he was Chief
Allison. This did not improve the situ-
alton and the end of it was the chief and
his party were arrested as suspicious
characters, taken in the patrol wagon
to the guardhouse and confined there
hours before being identified and re-
leased,

RIoTING OVER PROPERTY
An Armed Dispute Over the Gath

Ror SPRINGS, s. D., May 16.-The
right of possession of the Catholicon
Springs property came near causing a
riot last night. Last week Dr. Cope
land, of Chicago, was here and made a
deal for the property and left Col. Tan
her, of Chicago, in charge. Yesterday
Tanner left the premises for short
time when Ferguson, the former owner,
took possession and, with armed assist
ants, proceeded to run the house. Last
night warrants were sworn oupfor the
arrest of Ferguson, his attorney and
guards. at which time Copeland's re-

of the property, and in the melee guns
and knives were drawn, but owing to
