day at the rate of sixty-nine miles an
furiously.

depth of twenty four to thirty inches

snowfall which still continues has been
very heavy.

THE INDIAN BILL.
What 1t Will Cost to Look After the Wei
fare OF the Indians.


fare OF the Indians.
WASHINGTON, April 17.-Although
the committee on Indian affairs. for
the first time, yesterday morning sui
mitted the general Indian appropria-
ton bill to the full committee, no
definite action was taken upon it and
the bill has been variously described
and summarized heretofore. The to-
tai amount carried by it is s., 49, S66
This is a material reduction, not only
from the amount of the current appro-
priation bill, but also from the esti-
mate of the secretary of the interior,
as to the amount needed Secretary
Smiths estimate asks for Sc, 1898, 756.
The appropriations now current amount
to 81, l25, 396.
There are several interesting features
in the bill which have not been gener-
ally discussed. For instance, the sum
of $500 is appropriated to pay the ex-
penses attendant upon the purchase of
supplies for the Indian service. Here
tofore this amount has always been
$4,000. There is in connection with
this item clause in the bill which
provides that the principal depot for
purchasing supplies shall be located at
Chicago The bids shall be opened
there The bill abolishes the office of
superintendent of Indian schools, re-
duces the number of special agents
from five to three and the inspectors
from five to two

GREAT NORTHERN STRIKE.
Not a Wheel Turning In the Yards nj
Seattle.

Not a Wheel Turning In the Yards at
SEATTLE. Wash. April 1.-THE
Great Northern railway yards were as
quiet as a graveyard yesterday, not a
wheel turning nor any freight being
hauled.
An offer was made by the strikers to
take out the mail cars, but the offer
was declined. Local officers made no
attempt to get men to take the strik-
ers' places. and apparently none will
be made until after conference in St
Paul with the chiefs of the railway
employees unions. There is small
landslide on the coast line. but
Superintendent Copeland could not get
a crew to go out and clear it away.
At a general meeting of railway en-
ployes on all the lines it was deter
mined to uphold and sustain the Great
Northern men in their strike. 1t is
confidently expected here that gen.
eral strike on the transcontinental
lines except the Union Pacific will be
ordered before the end of the week I'M
less the managers of the roads restore
their schedules to that in force on the
Union Pacific.

The Case Closed.

WASHINGTON, April 16-Foreman
Charles Z Cole, of the civil court jury,
at AS o'clock Saturday afternoon
announced verdict for the plaintiff.
Madeline Pollard. for $4,000 damages
from Congressman w. C. F. Breckin-
ridge for breaking his contract to
marry her, thus ending the long and
exciting Breckinridge-Pollar breach

scored Col Phil Thompson as a lawyer

The jury retired at 3:O7 p. m The
first ballot taken was upon the merits
of the case, leaving out OF considera-
damages. 1t resulted in eleven votes
for a verdict in favor of the plaintiff
and one vote for the defendant There
upon the dissenting gentleman was
fguratively cornered by his colleagues,
and for some time was argued with. In
speaking of this discussion afterward,
Foreman Cole said that the jurymen
displayed fully as great familiarity
with the poeNts of the testimony as had
been evidenced by the lawyers in their
arguments They laid the case fully
before the obdurate juryman, called
for the grounds on which he based his
belief. and were finally able to over
come him by sheer force of logic.
The next question to be settled was
the figure at which the damages should
be rated and upon this matter there
was the widest possible difference.
Two or three jurors thought the full
amount sued for $50. OOO) should be
awarded. Foreman Cole said that
verdict of 81 would vindicate Miss Pol
lard and punish Mr.. breckenridge sutfi-
GENTLY, and he thought it was unnec-
essary to impose any great financial
punishment upon him. Discussion of
this matter followed until the usual
course was adopted, each juror writing
the amount he considered just upon a
slip of paper and a balance being struck
The amounts ranged from 81 to $50. 900,
and SIS, 900 the average.
The jury returned their verdict for
the latter amount and the defendant
gave notice that he would move for q
new trial
That Miss Pollard will be financially
bettered by the result of the case is
not probable, because it is well under
stood. and has been said on trial, that
Col Breckenridge has no property. He
has lived up to his income for years,
and although his wife has money it
does not seem likely that she will care
to expend it to satisfy the judgment
