TRIAL OF MAJOR WHAM.

A Protracted Session Expected Because
Documents Cannot Be Found.
VANCOUVER. WASH, Oct. THE
trial of Major Wham, paymaster of the
United States army, promises to be u
protracted one. The court has ad-
iourned for 20 days to give the prose-
cuticn an opportunity Of securing evil.
dence substantiating the charge. Judge
Advocate Mcclure produced certified
copy of the judgment upon the
amended complaint in the case Of Hol-
comb vs.. Wham, but being unable to
obtain sworn dispositions upon which
said Judgment was rendered, the same
having disappeared from files of the
New York court, tho judge advocate
required an adjournment for ~ days.
in " hich he expects to secure the dep.
osition of Beach, Major Wham's attor-
new in the Holcomb suit. corroborat-
ing allegations contained In the speci-
fication, the documentary evidence
being thus far entirely insufficient to
sustain the charge.
1t appeais that both the original
complaint in the case and the deposit
ton upon which the judgment on the
amended complaint against Wham
was rendered1have disappeared from
the files of the New York court, and
the comics upon which the war depart
ment was urged TO proceed against
Wham cannot be verified by tho
records as the clerk of the New York
court both telegraphed aud wrote that
they could not be found.

REV. M'GLYNN ON THE A. P. A.

He Believes Catholics Are in . Degree
Responsible for Its Existence.
PROHIBITION PARK. s. l., Oct. T.
Rev. DR.. McGIynn spoke before $500
people in the Auditorium here today.
His subject was Tho A. P. A., Its
Causes and Cure.'
He said he believed that Catholics
themselves were in u degree RESPONSE.
BILE for the existence Of The A. P. A.,
pointing to the tendency Of many
Catholic priests, particularly those OF
foreign birth, TO discuss public ques'
ton with religious prejudices. He de-
nounced the association, declaring 1t
was founded on unpatriotic and dis
honorable principles, and called on all
Catholics to pay no attention to the
movement. Toward the close Of the
address most of the audience left the
hall, those remaining being mostly
Catholics.
When McGlynn concluded, Alfred
n. Martin, who announced himself as
national deputy of the A. P. A. league,
assembled the platform and said very
excitedly: "Dr. McGlynn is all wrong.
The principles and teachings of the
Catholic church are Numerically OPP
posed to every American industry"
The speaker got no further, for his
voice was drowned by q storm of
hisses.
DR.. McGlynn again took the plat
form and rebuked the Catholics for
Kissing, saying it was just such incl
dents Us this which intensified the
feeling of the A. P. A.

CHEYENNE, Oct. 6.-Another chap
ter was enacted today in the sensa-
sional escapade of Mrs. Emma J. Ma
gle, the widow of the late Erassmin
Nagle. 1t will be remembered that in
July last, on an information being
filed by Daniel s. Swan, the clerk OF
the district court of Laramie county,
the jury decided that Mrs. Maggie was
mentally incompetent to manage her
own affairs. Judge Scott thereupon
appointed w. A. Robins of this city as
guardian of Mrs. Maggie, whose estate
was valued at SIPS. 900. He is also the
guardian of George H. Maggie. an 49,
year.old son, with an estate valued at
$500, 600, and was formerly one of the
Mr.. Nagle at the time of his death In
January, 1890.

mismanagement of the estate and the
complaint alleges that the appointment
of Robins was procured through con-
spiracy entered into with one Fred
Hess OF Rock Island, Ills, who in.
duced Mrs. Nagle to consent to his
appointment by representing 10 her
that she would be freed from certain
obligations which she had contracted
TO pay. The plaintiff AYERS that Mrs.
Maggie is of perfectly sound mind and
able to manage her own estate, which
is now being Incorporated, and asks
for an accounting and the discharge of
Robins.

Mrs. Nagle, shortly after her hus-

GENERAL ARMY TOURNAMENT.

Contests Between the Best Marksmen
Of Western Departments.
CHICAGO, Oct. 3.-The annual army
tournament or contests in marksman-
ship between the three best marks
men from the departments of the Col
umbia, Colorado, Texas, Dakota.
the East, Platte. California and
Missouri opens at Fort Sheri-
dap. Inspector of small arms
practice, department of the Mis-
souri,, is in charge of the competition.
The contests this year are watched
with unusual interest in army circles
as pra ctical test of the new magazine
rifle will be afforded. It will not b.
used in the competition to make
record for any ore man,
but it will be shot for the purpose
of determining what has been gained
by its adoption. Notwithstanding the
recommendation of the ordnance
board, the officers and men expect lit
tie TO be gained by the introduction of
the new weapon. The new rifle will
be shot side by side with the old
Springfield rifle and the result will be
watched for with interest both in
America and Europe.

TO DEVELP ALASKA.
Needs of That Territory Will Be Urge
on tho Next Congress-.

Needs of That Territory Will Be Urged
on tho Next Congress-.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 8. -Another at
tempt is to be made during the coming
session of congress to enact legislation
for Improvement of the government of
Alaska. Persons who have already
gone to that territory and made in
vestments are anxious to have laws
provided which will make more Sc
cure property rights. and which
will also establish closer commercial
relations between the territory and the
United States. It has been suggested
that one of the first steps towards
bringing Alaska into closer communi-
cation with the United States and
making it more useful to the govern
ment would be to organize the terri
tory as other territories have been Or
ganized and send delegate to con.
gress to represent it who would point
out the needs of the people of the terri
tory.
This idea is combatted by those who
claim that at present there are not
enough white people in the territory to
constitute a representative govern
ment, and the native popula-
ton has not attained a degree
of intelligence to entitle it
to participate in government affairs.
Because of lack of legislation, the devel-
opment of Alaskan mines, which are
said to be very rich. Is retarded. Most
Of these mines are of character that
required great deal OF machinery to
operate them and considerable cap
ital must be invested before any
results can be obtained. It is
possible that in the short session of
congress there will be no time for pass
ing adequate laws for the proper gov
eminent Of the far northwest territory,
yet men who have been pushing west
for many years are determined that
something must be done for Alaska.

TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT.
The Franco-English War scare Has
Taken Wings.

LONDON, Oct. 4.-English news-
papers have apparently recovered from
the scare caused by the hasty calling of
the cabinet council. The afternoon
newspapers are now unanimous in ex-
pressing the opinion that there is not
the slightest cause for anxiety about Sc
rious dispute with France. 1t seems
to be admitted that the cabinet council
will not be called upon to decide any
thing more serious than protection for
British interests in China. 1t seems
generally agreed, however, that the
cabinet council will decide the ques-
tion whether British troops be sent i'm.
mediately to treaty ports OF China.
The cabinet council met today. Most
of the ministers were present. Sir
William Harcourt, chancellor of the
exchequer. was absent. 1t Is an
nounced upon authority that the cabi-
net, after discussing the state OF affairs
in China, decided to send troops to that
country to protect British interests. 1t
is also probable that additional ships
will be sent to strengthen the fleet in
Chinese waters, under command of
Admiral Freeman. 1t is also said that
i'll consequence Of today's meeting of
the cabinet the British legation at
Pekin will shortly be guarded by Brit
ish blue jackets and native Indian
soldiers.
Blockade Report a Canard.
PORT LOUIS. Island Of Mauriius,
Oct. 4.-The statement that blockade
of MADAGASCAR has been declared by
France was brought here Ly steamer
from Madagascar. 1t appears to have
been due to misconstruction of French
measures to prevent the landing Of
arms and ammunition for the Hovas.
Madagascar papers state the French
settlers have been warned to repair to
the coast in view of possible hostilities.
The French bishop and French mis-.
sionaries, however, decline to leave the

France Fears no Complications.
PARIS, Oct. 4.-President Casimir
Perier has signed a decree appointing
Baron De Courcel, French ambassador
to London, to succeed M. De Crais,
recalled.
The journal Des Debats says: There
is no question between Great Britain
and France which cannot be settled
amicably. Soliel declares the NADIA
gascar affair can not lead to a conflict
between France and Great Britain.
LIE Matin says it is absurd to suppose
that dispute in regard to African af-
fairs which France had was the reason
for the summoning of the English
cabinet council.
