BUTTE, Neb., June 6.-(Speca Telegram.)
Shortly after noon today the men charged
with lynchng Barrett Scott appeared in
court. County Attorney Wills read the
charge, to which every man, in a firm voice,
pleaded not guilty The information is in
part as follows: THAT on or about January
/, 1895, the defendants felonously con-
spired and confederated together between
themselves and persons unknown for the pur-
pose of killing Barrett Scott"
Between nnety-fve and 100 witnesses will
be subpoenaed on the part of the defense, and
the state will have seventy witnesses. The
case will come up for trial Thursday.
The county attorney intends that the matter
of jurisdiction shall be argued before any
additional expense be incurred, and has asked
the court to make an order that the state
should make showing in regard to the
hanging having taken place in this county
before proceeding with the trial.
The feeling here today Is that the trial
OF the case will pile up a bill Of costs on
This county and result in farce and eventual
acquttal of the men accused. The few are
OF the opinion that the state will foot the

taken for n Defaulter.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 6.--Prof. Bernard
Moses, who occupies the chair of history and
political economy in the University of Cal
ifornia. and who has achieved distinction in
the field of political economy, recently had an
unpleasant experience in a Mexican village.
He went south to collect data for history
of the Central American states. He had in
tended to accompany Prof Harold Whiting
on the Inflated Colima, but at the last mo-
ment decided to travel overland. After
crossing the Mexican frontier he was mis-
taken for a defaulting bank cashier, arrested
and confined in jail day and a night His
appeal to the resident express agent secured
his liberation, as the express agent advised
the authorities that ii was a case of mis-
taken identity. After leaving the Jail, Moses
was locked in a room at his hotel for another
day. In his bag were letters to President
Daz and other prominent authorities.

Tuskogee, Ala, says: About twenty Of the
best citizens Of this town gave Rev. Mr..
Keller, a white man Of Ohio, a Surprise
party at o'clock yesterday evening by call
ing on him and informing him, through
their spokesman, DR.. A. j. Gauter. that his
presence here was obnoxious and disgusting
to the white people Of Macon county and es-
pecally so to the citizens Of Tuskogee, and
that he must leave the town and county on
the first train which passed through Chehaw,
the railroad station, at l a. m, or abide the
consequences. Keller pretends to be a min
lister, claiming he was "caled" to preach to
the negroes Of the south. He has been hold
ing protracted meeting here in the negro
church for the past ten days, eating, sleeping
and minglng altogether with the negroes,
making his headquarters with one Thomas
Harris, where he was found by the committee

SAN FRANCISCO, June 6.-In spite of
Frank Bucks statement that he can prove
beyond question that his father, the late
state senator, l.. w. Buck, was in Oakland
at the hour when Miss Harrington was
murdered in her fiat last Saturday the chief
of detectives is not satisfied with the alibi.
All who can throw any light upon the
movements of Mr. Buck on Saturday have
been subpoenaed for the coroner's inquest
to be held next Saturday. The coroner has
notified the detectives that at the inquest
he will demand all the letters of the mur-
dered woman. The police have intimated
that the correspondence has sensational fea-
lures, but decline to give particulars for
publication The inquest will probably be
the end of the case. At present there is no
prospect that any one will be arrested. The
police have failed to discover any fact i'm
plicating the murderer, except the sus-
picions they have expressed concerning Sen
ator Buck, who is dead.

LONDON, June GA dispatch to the

mediate political advantage TO Russia, but
the impression is that the agreement in
wolves China in the granting at some future
time OF an ocean port for the Siberian rail-
way. AS at present arranged, it will be a
4 per cent loan. 1t is stated that the syndi-
cate will obtain it at SO and sell 1t at par
II possible. II is evident, however, that the
entire transaction has in 1t more of the po-
litical than financial. 1t is stated here that
China must pay Russia for the loan at the
rate of per cent, Russia pocketing the diff
ference. which in the first year will amount
TO fl50, 900. According to the Telegraph the
loan will amount to about I'll. 900. This
will probably prove a bitter dsiN Npointment
to Germany, as 1t is stated Emper& William
strongly supported the German bankers in an
attempt to secure portion OF the issue.
