Santa Cruz, to give 1900 or 5000 men en-
ployment. thus preventing their taking arms
with the insurgents, and government agents

WASHINGTON, May 1O.-special Agent
Dickson at Pine Ridge, s. D., has reported
to the Indian office that American Horse
the well known Sioux chief, has been arrested
on a charge of bigamy and released on bail
pending trial The agent recommends steps
be taken to stop the proceeding, which he
regards the first in a series of like arrests.
All the other Indian chiefs have had several
wives for forty years and more and no one

general plan, of which the recent Turtle

up cases against Indians and secure fees

WHEAT CONDITIONS ARE IMPROVED
Gain Almost One Point In May Over the
April Average.

WASHINGTON, May 10.-The May re-
turns of the Department of Agriculture show
an increase in wheat of 1.5 points from the
April average, being S2.9 against S1.4 last

Of the principal winter wheat states are
Ohio, S5 Michigan, rs; Indiana, 81; illinois,
80; Missouri, 80; Kansas, As; California, 81
The average of the seven states is S2.5
against S1.5 in April, being an increase of
a little less than l point. In the southern
states, the averages range from SO in Texas
to SO in Alabama.
Winter rye, like wheat, has advanced
nearly points since last month the
average for May being SS.7, against 81 for
the same date in April. The percentage of
New York is 81; Pennsylvania, 90; Michigan,
IS; Illinois, 92; Kansas, "a. The prospects
for rye throughout the rye belt are fair
except in the state Of Kansas, where it is
too dry, while in the states of Minnesota

aged by the severe winter and has not re-
covered.

BISHOPS ARE CAUSING TROUBLE.
Relations of Church aud state I'm France
Arc Rccoming Strnined.

LONDON May 10.-A dispatch to the
Chronicle from Paris says the government
will be unable to much longer ignore the re-
bellion which is gaining ground all over
France-a rebellion Of the church against the
state. The attitude of the bishops is making
a general impression upon the public mind
and the country is being divided into two
camps Only one bishop has had the courage
to advocate submission to the law and he was
promptly extnguished by his metropolitan.
The strangest part of the affair is the ap-
parent turn about of the pope. 1t is an
open secret that his holiness will not with
hold the paDal benediction from those who
think it their duty to resist the droit d'ac-
crossement. The Assumption Fathers who
are the proprietors of sixty religious papers
and printing millions Of sheets, advocated a
loutrance. The socialists are jubilant over
the prospect of a war with the church.

asking him impertinent questions suddenly
drew a revolver and commenced firing. Three
bullets struck Coleman and two struck Mrs.

Innovation in the Postat Service to BE
Tried ut Detroit.


Tried ut Detroit.
WASHINGTON, May 1O.-The postmaster
general has decided to establish a marine
postal service at Detroit, Mich, for the free
delivery and collection of mail matter of the
vessels that pass up and down the Detroit
river without touching at Detroit and carry
a floating population of $500 to 5000. This
new departure will prove very convenient
to the merchant marine of the great lakes.
More tonnage passes Detroit than any other
port in the world. During the season of
navigation a vessel passes Detroit every
seven minutes during the day Of twenty-four
hours. The new service will, therefore, be
continuous and will be conducted by means Of
a steam launch which will be used by the
postal employees. The new service will be
maintained through the free delivery ap-
preparation in the bureau of the first assist
ant postmaster general. Mail will be de-
livered to the vessels by carriers, just as it
is to ordinary business houses. Two extra
carriers, a clerk at the dock and the crew
of the steam launch will be required in ad-
dition to the present force employed.

BERLIN, May 10.-In the Reichstag, Herr

ling, which he declared was contrary to re-
ligion and morality. He especially COM

The minister of war, General Bronsart Won

capable of understanding the views of army
officers on this question. Duelling, he added
was only resorted to in the army when all
endeavors looking to a peaceful settlement of
the matter in dispute had failed.
The Reichstag then rejected the commit

that measure, and next the Rechstag re-

MEADE VIOLATED THE NAVAL RULES
Criticism of His Superior Onicers May Get
Him Into Trouble.

WASHINGTON. May 1O.-There was con-
siderable talk about the Navy department
today of a published interview with Admiral
Meade crit!cislng the administration. The
criticism of a superior is an offense accord
ing to the naval regulations and the secre-
tary of the navy and president, against
whom the remarks of Admiral Meade were
directed, are his superior officers. 1t is
possible that the president and secretary
may pay no attention TO the utterances, but
inasmuch as the court-martial has been
ordered on charges preferred by Admiral
Meade against a surgeon in the navy for
giving certain matter TO the press II may
be that the admiral's apparent violation OF
the naval regulations will be presented to the
attention Of the department by officers Of the
navy who are especially interested In
Surgeon Kerschner.
