A Time is Expected

GUTHRIE, o. T., Dec. ia sensation
has been caused by the making public of
the fact that the Payne county grand jury
found indictments against Sheriff Atherton
for allowing priso ers to escape; Probate
Judge Basil for falslfying records; ex-
Police Judge White, for malfeasance in
office, and Henry E. Afford, ex-president,
and Amos Ewing, eX-treasurer of this agri-
cultural college, both for embezzlement of
government funds. Other indictments
still more sensational are kept back, and
lively times are looked for.

CLAIMS SEATTLE LAND.
A Norwegian Woman Seeks to
Recover Valuable City
Property.
Willed to Her Thirty Five Years Ago
by a Settler to Whom She
Was Betrothed.

SEATTLE, WASH, Nov. 16.-King
County is in a fair way to lose land and
property valued at $250,OO0. By the pro-
visions of will made in 1861, Marie
Simens, daughter of native of Helga
Borge, Norway, has laid claim to what is
knowo as the County Farm. The tract
borders on the southern city limits, and is
valued at $1,000 per acre. 1t has hospital
and other improvements to the extent of
100000.
Originally this land belonged to Hans
Olsen, who acquired property under the
assumed name of John Thompson, as he
had deserted from the English navy.
Being a single man and without relative,
Olsen wrote a will IN the shape of a letter
to his sweetheart in far-off Norway, be-
queathing to her the land in question.
There was nothing recorded here to show
what disposition had been made of the
property. so in time it was taken posses
sion CT in the name of King County. The
growth of the city has made the land valu-
able, and now Miss Simens' daughter seeks
to recover the property, having employed
prominent Portland attorney to push her
claim.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 16.-Pos.
master-General Wilson has issued gen.
eral order to postmasters throughout the
United States in reference to various for
eign lottery companies whose matter is
transmitted through the United States
mail.
He says it has been made apparent to
him upon satisfactory evidence that a
Honduras lottery concern and number
of other lottery companies in Mexico, Can
ada, San Domingo and San Francisco are
engaged in conducting lotteries or simi Lar
enterprises through the mails in violation
of the anti-lottery law of the United States.
He forbids postmasters to pay any money
order drawn to any of the parties named
and directs that the remitter be so in
formed. He further directs that any mail
received by postmasters from these COM
panies be sent to the Office of mailing to be
delivered to the senders marked "fraudu-
lent" IF the name of the sender cannot
be ascertained the matter shall be sent to
the dead letter Office marked fraudulent"

Bishop Fitzgerald Reports on the
Plan to Consolidate Wesleyans
=. and Methodists.
UNION SOON TO BE EFFECTED
Appropriations Allowed for Various
Congregations Throughout the
j.: ....... = = Country.

" DENVER CeLo., Nov. 16.-The Metho-
dist general missionary com mittee to-day
considered the needs of the missions
among the foreign population in this coun-
try and began upon the foreign countries.
The Swedish work received considerable
attention and in some instances the same
appropriations as last year were granted.
The Italian work in Philadelphia received
a comparatively handsome increase over
last wear. North and South Germany
missions were cut the usual per cent,
against the most urgent showing that an
increase was imperative. Switzerland and
Norway Jared the same. ...
Bishop Fitzgerald reported upon the
movement to consolidate the Wesleyan
churches of Germany and Austria with
the Methodist Episcopal churches, detail
ing the steps already taken by the Wes-
Ieyans. The board of managers were en-
powered to grant missionary aid in their
discretion to the Wesleyan churches in
that field, provided the union is consum-
mated before the next meeting of this gen
eraI committee, and the General Confer
ence was requested to take the proper
steps to bring about this union at an early
time.
Bishop Foster presided at the morning
session. The Swedish missions were first
considered and provoked a lively debate.
For Swedish missions, Northern New Y ork
was granted $500; Wyoming, $500; Phila-
delphia, $414 California, $2325; Colorado,
1872; the Central Swedish Conference,
$4,000; East Maine, S372; New York, $3.50;
New York, east, $4,000; New England,
$1,000; New England, Southern, $17OO;
Northern Swedish, $500; Western, $4700;
Puget Sound, $1,000.
Bishop Foss wanted the Italian appro-
priaton raised from $1335 to $2135. He
was willing to give up the appropriation
for the Pennsylvania Dutch and the Bohe-
mians and Hungarians, amounting to
$1250, and reduce the Welsh sum to $414.
Bishop Fowler opposed the great in
crease. Charles Scott, layman, said the
"Italians of Philadelphia were a curse
to-day, and must be upraised. Property
in the neighborhood of the Italian quar-
ters had decreased in value. The Italians
were given $2135. Oklahoma escaped cut.
Bishop Andrews introduced the follow
ing resolution:
Resolved, That in the case of conferences and
missions in the United States whenever the
conference or mission year exceeds or falls
short of q calendar year by at least one month
then the treasurer shall be authorized to in
crease or diminish pro rata the appropriation
which may be made, provided that n fraction
OF a month less than two weeks shall be taken
into account, and Bishops and corresponding
secretaries are hereby requested to make their
drafts for the last quarter upon the basis thus
laid down.
The afternoon session was consumed in a
fight for leniency for the Germany, Swift
zerIand and Norway conferences, but to nc
avail. The Bulgarian field will be made q
special order for Monday morning.

UNGARETTI CONVICTED.

An Italian of Santa Rosa Found Guilty
of Deadly assault.
SANTA ROSA, CAL, Nov. 16.-The jury
in the case of Peter Ungaretti, charged
with assaulting fellow workman, N. Ba.
cipalupi, with deadly weapon, returned
verdict tonight of guilty. Sentence will
be pronounced by Judge Crawford on
Monday.
The trial has occupied the Superior
Court for several days, and has been at
tended by many countrymen of the prin-
cipals, the principal interest in the case
resting upon the popularity of the man
assaulted. Bacigalupi is prominent
merchant. He has two neices, who were
met on the street one Sunday in Septem-
Der last by Ungaretti, who made an in
sulting remark and slapped the girls
faces.
Bacigalupi was out of town at the time
and when he returned and was told what
had occurred he went to the defendant
and asked him what he meant by his in
sulting conduct. Ungaretti fell upon him
and fight ensued with the result that
Bacigalupi was stabbed in many places.
District Attorney Seawell and 0. O.
Hebber prosecuted the case. Burnett and
Lepps appeared for the defendant.

HANGED BY Am ARKANSAS MOB.
Albert England, Postofce Thief Taken
From the Officers. Swung Up and
Shot to DEATH

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Nov. 16.-The Federal
authorities here to-day received informa-
ton that Alfred England, postofice rob-
Der, was lynched near Velonia, Faulkner
County, Ark, last Wednesday. He was
arrested by Deputy Sheriff Moore and was
being taken to Velonla.
The officer and his prisoner were sud-
denly confronted with a gang of men who
were armed with Winchesters. Seeing
England the mob fired thirty shots into
his body and then hanged him in the
presence of the officer and his assistants.
The members of the lyDching party, who
were masked, are unknown. What caused
them to lynch England cannot be ascer-
tanned.
J. B. Wilson, ex-Sheriff of Faulkner
County, while en- route to the scene of the
lynching, was shot and killed from am
bush. 1t is supposed by the Government
officers who have been searching for Eng
land that his life had been taken by his
confederates in order to prevent his telling
all about large number of robber!es that
for the past year have been committed in
| Faulkner County.
