Special to the RECORD-UNION.
MIssoULA (Mont.), June 22.-The ex-
pedition which left Missoula on May 2lst
in search of the body of George Colgate,
the cook to the Carlin party, and who
was abandoned by the party last fall in
the Big Clearwater country, one of the
widest forests in North America, has
just returned. The body of Colgate was
not found, but sufficient evidence was
discovered to justify the conclusion that
he died a horrible death. On the limb of
a tree which projected into the eddy of
the Middle Fork of the Clearwater
River was found one sleeve caught under
a huge bowlder. The indications were
that the body was washed down stream
about half mile from where the un-
fortunate man was abandoned by Carlin
and his party and caught in the eddy.
The sleeve having caught in the limb of
tree and the current being intensely
rapid, the arm was torn from the body
and remained there. The blankets left
for the unfortunate man by the Carlin
party were found and indicated that Col
gate must have died a raving maniac, as
the blankets had been strapped to his
back by the Carlin party. and when this
expedition found them they were just
beyond high-water mark.
Martin Spencer. who was the guide to
the Carlin party, and who also guided
this expedition, became sadly affected
when the expedition arrived at the spot
where Colgate had to be abandoned.
The statements furnished by Ben Kee-
ley, member Of the Carlin party, have
been proven false by this expedition
Keeley claimed that the abandonment of
Colgate was entirely unnecessary and
was due to young Carlin. A dispassion-
ate investigation was made by this expe-
dition, and it is plainly evident that it
was miracle that any of the members of
the Carlin party came out alive The
mountains come right down to the edge
of the river and tower 1900 feet high.
almost perpendicularly. A portion of
Young Carlin's diary was found, which
reads:
''One day he said to me: 'Nfr. Carlin,

all the trouble / have caused you. Do
you think we will ever get out?' / told

This page was found under a bowlder,
which had evidently rolled on it, and was
much worn. and the writing was scarcely
legible.
The expedition was extremely hazard
Gus, having been made, as it was, in
season of the year when the streams are
much swollen and the snow making travel
dangerous. The expedition encountered
twenty feet of snow in places. There can
be no question but that the bones of the
unfortunate George Colgate are now
somewhere at the bottom of the Middle
Fork of Clearwater River, and that his
widow will not have the sad opportunity
OF giving them decent burial.

received stiff left-hander on the jaw,
which brought him up with jerk. The
colored man, however, rushed him to the
ropes. getting in two hard ones on the
body. The gong saved Harris.
The third round was but repetition
of its predecessors, with Wolcott doing
all the landing and Furnishing.
Harris started off well in the fourth,
landing on the darky's mouth. He
tried it once more, but this time Joe
caught him hot one in the stomach, and
when he doubled up he received another
left full in the face.
1t looked in the fifth as though Harris
wanted to stop, for twice did he drop to
his knees without being hit. He sue
ceeded, after getting three or four punches
on the jaw and face, in keeping out of the
negro's way until the call of time sent
them to their corners.
The sixth and last round was rapid.
ORourke told his man to bring the thing
to a close, and this he did with a rush.
He followed Harris about the ring, land
ing right and left so fast that the specta-
tors could not count them. After VOL

The water tonight is higher than it bas
ever been. and is still rising. 1t is prob
able that the whole city will be inun-

current is now flowing over Griswold
Park and the adjoining residence portion
Of the town. The water is rising rapidly,
and another two feet will send it sweep
ing down Main street. The lower floors
of many houses are already under water
and people are excitedly loading their
property into boats. The great rain of
yesterday has swollen all the streams of
this section, and most of them have
broken over their banks. ser
have already suffered an inlAuenso loss
through the destruction of their crops
and stock.
At midnight tonight the water is
higher than 1t has been since the great
flood of 1887. The body of a man with a
trunk and a yalise foated under the
Douglass-avenue bridge a few minutes
ago, and 1t is supposed the rise caught
him while he was crossing the stream
The body could not be rescued at that
hour.
Reports have come in from the country
tc the effect hat many houses are under
water between here and Hutchinson, and
the loss of stock and grain is very large.
One farm six miles north of here had
thirty-two hogs swept away and lost six
head of cattle. The flowing debris that
is passing through here indicates heavy
losses to the farmers. The stock yards in
this city are completely under water.
1t is reported late tonight that the
water is about to flow into Lawrence av-
enue in this city. The Seventeenth-street
bridge is in great danger, and if it col
lapses it will propably cause the destruc-
ton of eleven bridges below it.
Reports from the west say another body
of high water is coming down, and the
people are greatly alarmed.

Lancaster, a new arrival here, died last
Sunday under peculiar circumstances

physicians after examining him after
his death, testified at the inquest that he
died from poisoning. His wife made
conflicting statements at the inquest and
was suspected of having killed her hus-

woman had been in eiandestlne corre-

Kentucky. a telegram was received to-
day stating that Mrs. j. J. Lancaster is
now in Padueah, Ky, but that the
woman passing as Mrs. Lancaster here is
a woman who induced Lancaster to leave
Kentucky. The telegram ordered the
arrest and detention Of all parties in the
case. and Mrs. Lancaster was locked up
in the County Jail. Lancaster was man
of considerable means. and there is a
strong chain of circumstantial evidence

Mike Harris of New York, the much

out after an unmerciful drubbing by his
dusky opponent.
The first round was all in favor of the
black man. There was only question
of how long Harris could make his
thickness stand him in good stead to
avoid punishment. He slipped to the
floor three times, but always managed to
get up in the required time. Neither
man did much except run. but what was
done was on the darky's side.
In the second round Wolcott started in
to finish his man. He chased him
around the ring, swinging right and left
in rapid succession. He was over-anx-

IMPORTANT RULING.
Deoision Relating to an Insurance Cas-
in wyoming.

Dsoision Relating to an Insurance Case
in Wyoming.
CHEYENNE. June %. An important
ruling was made by Judge Riner in the
United States Court here to-day in an in
surance case. A company refused to pay
the claim of Mrs. George B. Henderson,
whose husband was murdered in 1891,
near Lander. on the grounds that the pol
icy excepted death from intentional cause.
1t was shown that Henderson, who was
the manager of cattle outfit, expected to
be killed, and took insurance especially
to provide for his wife and family in case
of his meeting death by violence. He
did not read his policy, but relied upon
the verbal statement Of the insurance
agent that the policy was all right and
the insurance would be paid should he
be murdered. Judge Riner rules that
the agents statements constitute the con-
tract, and that the policy shall be re-
formed accordingly. The amount in
Volyed is $4,000
