nit anyone to come near Then an inquest

trial of Lawson began last Saturday and
was concluded Thursday evening, the
jury returning verdict at O'Clock yes
terday morning after being out less than

patches to the Statesman were carried
over the mountain range from Challis to
ketchum on wheel, a distance of 30
miles. in less than IL hours.

for damages. aggregating $3.50, will

wife was a passenger on the Colima.
Another Will be brought by Mrs. T.
Gray, whose husband was in charge of
the refrigerator room, and the third
complainant is T. c. Struckmann,
whose mother was drowned. The COM
plants as prepared by Attorney Phil
lips charge that the cargo of the steam
er was badly slowed and that the Off
GERS showed neglect in not giving the
passengers warning of the danger, so
they could have taken measures to
save their lives. 1t is charged that life
preservers were not given to the pas
sengers, and that there were not
enough life preservers on board to sup
ply all who needed them.

THE NATIONAL SOLDIERS REUNION
Gathe ring at Caldwell. O., With Political
Objects.

Caldwell, o.. June A-Union veterans of
the civil war, representing every state in
the union, are assembled here today for
the purpose of participating in the 21st
annual national soldiers reunion. 1t is
thought, however, by many that the at
tendance would have been larger but for
the fact that many objected to the pur-
pose of the gathering, as stated in the
official call. The following is the clause
to which exception is taken: Each state
shall send as many delegates as it deems
proper, but no state shall have more or
less than two votes in the convention, to
the end that every state may have equal
power to decide how the soldier vote of
the union shall be cast in 1896. This is the
great and only object of the gathering
the capitalization and solidifcation of the
soldier vote"
The publication of the call was the sig
nal for storm of protest. 1t was main
tanned that action of this kind on the
part of the veterans would do more harm
than good to any cause in which they
were interested.

ILLINOIS TAKES CHARGE HERSELF
Relics OF Lincoln Removed From the
Hands of AVariciOus Men

Springfield, ILL.,, June 14.-An episode
which has been characterized by con-
siderable bitter criticism was forever
laid to rest last evening when the Lin
coin monument was formally trans
ferred to the state of Illinois. Since its
construction it has been in charge of a
commission, and Its management by
this body gave rise to no little dissatis-
faction, principally owing to the grant
ing concessions for the sale of photos
and relics and exaction of an admis-
sion fee from all who desire to view
the objects of historic interest which are
stored in a room at the base of the
monument adjoining the vault wherein
lie the earthly remains of great eman-
cipator. The transfer to the state took
place i'll Representatives hall. Ad-
dresses We're delivered by Ex-Governor
Richard J. Oglesby. on behalf of the
Lincoln Monument Association; by Gov
ernor Altgeld who received the deed
on behalf of the state, and by Senator
Cullom.

BLACK FLAGS THREATEN MURDER
Foreigners on tho Island of Formosa
Fear for Their Lives

TSuI IOl lives
Hong Kong June 15.-It Is stated
that the Black Flags are threat enine
to cause serious trouble in Formosa
and foreigners on the island are in a
critical condition. In view of these
facts the commander of the British
cruiser Spartan has landed a detach-
ment of marines and the British cruiser
Rainbow has left here for the scene of
the trouble. The Japanese cruiser ap-
preaching An Fling was fired upon
without effect.
A DIFFERENT STORY.
Washington, June 15.-The Japanese le
CATION today received an official dispatch
from the foreign office summarizing the
status of affairs in the island of Formosa
follows:
AT Tai Phu Flu and Tamsui, the two
large cities in the north, all disorder is
at an end and peace established. The jap
anese have put into operation a civil
system of administration. German ma
rines were landed al the cities mentioned
but have now been withdrawn. The for
eign settlers are now under the entire
protectnon of the Japanese army and CT
vii officials"
The mention of the establishment of II
civil system shows that martial law
which was in operation when the Japanese
fleet and army first arrived, has given
place quickly to an orderly municipal
system. No mention is made of the re-
ported uprising of the Black Flags.

SEAL HERDS GREATLY DIMINISHED
The Indiscriminate slaughter of Former
Years Causes 1t.


Washington, June 14.-Captain Hoop
er, in command of the cutter fleet in
Bering sea, has reported to the treasury
department. His observations south of
unalaska convince him that the seal
nerds moving north are far less num-
erous than formerly. This scarcity, it
Is believed, is entirely due to the in
discriminate slaughter of the last two
or three years. While patrolling the
North Pacific Captain Hooper boarded
and searched a number of sealers, both
Canadian and American, but there was
no evidence of unlawful killing, hence
they were allowed to proceed. 1t is very
probable that the maximum catch of
the North American Commercial Com
pany will be materially reduced even
from last year, when 1t reached only
about 5000 skins
