DESERVING THE JUNTA.
w. NJ. Hinton Unexpectedly Withdraw
From Daggett's General Comm ittee.

W. d. hlnbon unexpectedly NlthdraWS
From Daggett's General Committee.
The Democratic iunta received a blow
yesterday by the resignation of William
H. Hinton from its general committee
This loss is severely felt by this faction in
Democratic politics because strong and
influential workers are in great demand
just now, and particularly since so many
have dropped out of the iuntas ranks.
Mr.. Hinton's action is said to be due to
the firm friendship for Congressman Ma
guire. John Daggett, Superintendent OF
the Mint, had stated that he would kill
the Congressman politically, and Mr.. Hin
ton by his withdrawal declined to be a
party TO the slaughter of his friend
Among the others who have deserted the
junta are John T. Humphreys f. J. Des-
mond and James Mccarthy. 1t is feared
that if the desertion to the ranks OF the
regulars Keeps on the camp Of the Daggett
faction will present sorry sight before the
battle actually begins.

PORTLANDlIHoRSE MEAT.
A Packing House Man Says Only tho
Hams Sell Ia. Effrope,

PORTLAND. Or, Dec. 11.-Ben Selling,
president of the West Packing Company,
Just returned from Europe in the interest
of the horse-meat market, says: Large
quantities of horse meat are sold in the
cities, dealers in the article having a large
horse head for sign and dealing in no
other kind of meat. Horse steaks sell for
1212c cents per pound, which is about one
third the price of beef Much horsefesh is
USED in making sausages, and many of the
poor classes seldom or never eat any other
kind OF meat. 1t is about the only kind of
meat the workingman can afford and he
wants it in a fresh state. Thousands of
laboring people do not get meat once
week, and most of them for their MONDAY
meal have nothing but n piece of coarse
rye bread. The chances for selling Amer
lean horse meat in Europe are not very
favorable. Only the choicest pieces, like
the hams, can be shipped at all with any
profit"

TILDEN Is CHOSEN.
End of the Fight for the Administrative
of the Rankin Estate.

End OF the Fight for the Admins tratiOn
of the Rankin Estate.
Judge Coffey has decided that Augustus
Tilden, the nominee of Mrs. Harriet Ellis
worth, is the proper administrator to place
over the estate of Mrs. Ira P Rankin.
The place was sought by J. E. La Rue
and by Tilden-La Rue by nomination of
Edward Rankin, brother of the deceased,
and Tilden by nomination of Mrs. Els
worth, niece OF Miss Sarah Bryant, one
OF the legatees under Mrs. Rankin's will.
The main question at issue was which
nominating party had the grea test inter-
est in the will, and judgment was rendered
in favor of Mrs. Ellsworth nominee.
Ira 2. Rankin was executor of his wife's
will and Edward Rankin was executor of
his will, hence Edward Rankin claimed
the right to nominate; but as heir to Miss
Bryant Mrs. Ellsworth was held to have
the greater interest and she was al lowed
to name the administrator.

ing thrown among some loose papers. The

THE SUGAR BOUNTY CASE,

The Adverse Decision of Comptroller Bow
Ter May Lead to Serious Developments
Have theDeclaratfOns of q National PoIit-
Teal Platform All the Binding Force of y
Supreme Court Decision?
CHICAGO. Sept. IA special to an
evening paper from Washington says:
The decision of Comptroller Bowler in
the sugar bounty cases is expected to
lead to some very interesting develop
ment in the near future
While there is little interest in the
matter of the sugar planters getting
or not getting the S.. O00. 900 promised
to them, there is q great deal in the
question of whether an officer ap-
pointed by the president in the execu-
tive branch of the government can as
sumo the highest functions of the jul
dicial branch, and whether the dec
laration of a democratic national con-
vention that protection through the
tariff and bounties is unconstitutional,
has all the force of a decision of the
supreme court in controlling the ac-
ton Of the executive department.
The decision of Mr.. Bowler, is re-
garded as a political move, which.
while it may lose Louisiana to the
democrats, is intended to give the
color of judicial sanction to the demo-
cratic platform declaration that all
forms of bounty are unconstitutional.
The new repu blican congress will
probably care very little about the in
dividual interests of the Louisiana
planters, but they will not be apt to
pass without notice this attack upon
the protective tariff policy. 1t is re-
garded as almost certain to result in a
congressional investigation, and it is
expected that articles of impeachment
against Mr.. Bowler may be intro
duced.
If the planters can carry their case
to the supreme court, it will proba bly,
result Gisastrously to the democratic
platform declarations. A ma jority o.
the supreme court believe in the inter-
probation put upon the constitution
by the republicans, and they would
probably not let the opportunity go
by to have a decision by the highest
tribunal on this question. which was
raised squarely for the first time by
the last democratic national conven-
ton, though it might not be neces-
sary to decision of the case involving
the question of the comptroller's au-
thority that the constitutional status
of bounties should be discussed.
The political phase of the mere
question of paying the planters
claims is greatly mixed. 1t is be-
lieved, however, that in the next cleo
ton Louisiana will be lost to the
democrats, both on the presidential
and the congressional ticket. 1t is
possible that Louisiana may figure
prominently in the settlement of the
presidential contest of so, as it did

A TRIPLE TRAGEDY.

An Indianian Chops on the Head of His
Father-in-Law While in the Woods
Hunting Coons-Calls Up His Isrother-in-
Law and Cleaves His Head with an Ak
Later. Being Pursued by Posse, Shoots
and Kills Himself
SULLIVAN, Ind, Sept. 6.-James
Ward murdered Aaron Hunter, his
| father-in-law, and John Hunter. his
brother-in-law. near here. last night,
by splitting their heads open with an
Ak. and committed suicide by shoot
ing when he was surrounded by posse
determined to lynch him. The double
| murderer lured his victims to their
! death.
The trouble grew out of a domestic
quarrel. Thursday night at II o'clock
Ward and Aaron Hunter were in to wn
and apparently arrived at a satisfac
| tory understanding. Ward insisted,
however, upon the old NAL going to
| the woods for the purpose of hunting
| coons. While the hunt was in pro-
gress and Hunter was sitting on a
| stump, Ward hit him on the head with
an AK. His head was split wide open.
| When Hunter fell. Ward struck the
| PROSTATE body again and cut off the
! head. The AK sank into the ground.
The murderer then proceeded to kick
| the head of his victim about.
He then went home, awOke his wife,
| and told her to call her brother, as he
| and the old man had freed a coon, and
| ask him to come and help fell the
| tree.
The younger Hunter got up, and
| went out into the yard with only his
shirt yxhan WorJ with St- nlxo
| of the ak. felled him to the ground.
Young Hunter died almost imme-
| diately with his head split open.
Ward then told his wife to keep quiet
about the whole affair, that if she did
not she would suffer the same fate as
! her father and brother.
Ward then went about half mile
down the road and stopped at the
Brecl1els' home. He told Mrs. Brock
els that he had killed both the Hunt
| erS.
Before many hours the crime was
generally known, and posse, consist
| ing of miners and farmers. started on
| the hunt for Ward, armed with vari-
Gus weapons. Ward had two revol-
| vers and this fact was known by h is
! pursuers.
The posse became enraged when the
old mans body was found and more
| determined than ever to hang Ward if
| caught.
Just as the posse had located Ward
and surrounded the field in which he
had been hiding. a single shot was
| heard. The posse closed in on the
| spot from whence the firing had come
and found Ward on his back on the
ground with a revolver in each hand
| and bullet wound under the left ear.
| He was dead.
