ments by the Treasury.

Washington special: The officials of the
War Department, especially of the Engi-
Sineer's office, are again raising a row
over the action Of the treasury in holding
back warrants for work done. Not a dol
lar has been paid upon any of the vouch-
ers for contract work in July, although all
these vouchers have passed through all
Necessary examination. The warrants are
withheld simply TO enable the treasury to
show as small a deficit as possible. But
while this is being lone contractors are Sc
riously embarrassed. The engineers say
that they cannot hold contractors to a
strict account if the Government will not
pay its obligations when due and proved.
The chief of the warrant division of the
treasury simply obeys orders. He is at
present acting under instructions which
direct him to hold up every possible bill.
The deficit for the fiscal year thus far is
about SIS, 600, 900. Mr.. Carlisle has deter
mined that it shall not exceed 500, 600, 600
for the five months which will have passed
when Congress meets.

COLORADO MINES FLOODED.
Thirteen Miners Believed to Have

Central City, Colo, special: The acci-

being made to rescue the unfortunate men,
but little hope is entertained. A little af-

whose names We're not learned, were at
work in the lower part of the shaft. They
We're both drowned. In its course the wa

the casterly portion of the Fisk vein.
Fourteen men were working in the Sleepy
Hollow, three Of whom escaped. A cour-

their workmen escaped.

first signal of the disaster, and soon thu

their services in lowering the bucket. The

accumulation of gas forced up by the ris-
ing water being such that a candle would
not burn al a greater depth.
The two men in the Americas are with

TO EVICT WHITE SETTLERS.

ingtOn Must Nacatc.

Port Townsend, WASH, special: Con-
sternatiOn was caused in this and adjoin-
ing counties by the appearance of a squad
of Federal soldiers with Instructions to all
SETTLERS on the Government reservation to
vacate before September 10 or be removed.
1t is estimated that 1900 settlers will lose
their homes. In early days the Govern
ment set aside much valuable land on
which to establish the Indians. The re-
servations exceeded their needs and many
pioneers settled on the unused tracts.
which are 10Y the finest farm lands in the
state. 1t is feared trouble would ensue
should the Government attempt to forcibly
remove settlers.
Washington special: Nothing is known
at the War Department OF the eviction Of
squatterS rom the reservations in the

the commanding general in each depart
ment 10 prevent trcspassing. and il is as
sumed that Gen. Otis has undertaken 10

subsequently $3.50 was offered. and re-
fused, and now the few sellers are de-
handing $i6. This represents an advance
of nearly s. per ton above lowest point
touched early in the year. 1t is IA notable
fact that Some OF the largest producers of
pig ron for conversion INTO steel have
been busy buyers right close up TO the
highest prices recorded for actual transac-
tons. Pitisburg has taken control of the
output some furnaces in the Lebanon dis
uict and has purchased also 25.0N tons OF
basic open hearth metal in Alabama. \
large part OF the sales that have recently
put up the price are for delivery during
the first quarter of 1895. Steel billets have
partly followed pig iron, so that now s23
in Pittsburg is a firm quotation. The buy
ing movement keeps up well, but there is
less excitement. Tin plate bars are up to
So at mill, which is crowding tin plate
mills pretty hard. Sheet iron is eXcep-
~tionally scarce. The latest advance in pig
iron and billets has not yet found express
sicn IN prices for finished product, So that
an advance all along the line looks immi-
nruf.

said:
The personal views that the circuit
court. although a court of general juris-
diction. gets its power of sentence in any
case from the statute; that the same stat
ute which gives the power also limits 1t,
and that when a court whose power OF
sentence in any given case Is limited plaih-

is the condition under which by our stat
ute habeas corpus successfully lies.
He said a court commits error when II
does something which il has legal power
to do, but ought not 20 do. Ii exceeds its
jurisdiction when it does something which
it has no legal power TO do, and that Jurls-
dictiou means more than control OF the
person and authority to try the question
at issue and includes power 10 render the
Judgment which it does render. In the
absence OF adequate statutory law upon
the subject some Of the courts have felt
compelled to assume an illogical position
in order to preventa failure Of justice upon
the ordinarily dangerous doctrine that the
end ~justities the means.

BishOD Mnrty's Successor.

Fourteen German priests, presided over
by Administrator Mensing, met at Starr,
four miles west of ParkstOn. The meet
ing was called by Father Burning and its
object was to agree upon some plan 10
promote candidacy of Father Mensing for
the bishopric of Sioux Falls. Speeches
were made by Fathers ~lIepperle and Bun
ming, and Il petition was drawn up to be
signed by all the German priests OF the
diocese. This petition is to be presented
through Bishop Marty to the authorities
at Rome and every nerve is to be strained
to have Father Mensing. or some German,
appointed bishop of this diocese. The
meeting vas to be held secretly, but 50
many priests, all travelling to the same
place, excited the curiosity of others, and
the object of the meeting was revealed.

DENOUNCEs THE SETTLERS.
Killing OF Old TiIncGa
lied as Cold BlOOded Murder.

WASHINGTON special: The department
of Justice has received from tile lnlte'i
States district attorney on the invcstiSa-
ton into the hammock Indian trouble. ne
district attorney says he las 40 douot
whatever that the killing OF the Indian
Timega on July Is was a cold biooded
murder bv Constable Manning and his
deputies in pursuance OF ii conspiracy I"
prevent the Indians from hunting. lie
adds that 1t would be useless to commence
proceedings against the murdcr"rs before
the commissioners, a. Commissioner Petit
grew, before whom t.I ! ioceedingS would
come, is thoroughly III sympathy with the
settlers and has expressed he opinion that
the treaty under which the Indians CLAIM
ed the right TO hunt has ceased 10 be oper-
ative. The district attorney and depart
ment concur in the opinion that there Is
no statute under which the murdercrs can
be punished.
Accompanying the report OF the district
attorney Is a scathlng arraignment OF the
Jackson's Hole settlers made III a report
of the United States deputy marshal, Who
investigated the trouble:
The deputy marshal's report says hat a
careful investigation Of the whole affair
shows that the reports made by settlers
charging the Indians with wholesale
~slaughteg OF game for w|antonness or TO
secure the hides Of the animals killed have
been very much exaggerated.
