Louisville. Ky. May 26.-The leading
city Of the Blue Grass state is filling UP

French spoilation claims and the claims
under the Bowman act. were disagreed
to and the bill was sent to the confer
ence committee.
Mr.. Deliver of Iowa spoke in favor of
the alcohol bill. He ridiculed the idea
of attempting republican legislation
against the opposition, "the inert popu-
listic mass in the senate and the inert
free trade mass in the White house.
Mr. Dolliver then drifted into politics
and paid his respects to Ex-Governor
Horace Boies of Iowa, who, he said,
looking in vain through the dust and
cobwebs of the country law office for
republican nomination, Joined the anti
prohibition element in Iowa and carried
the democratic party to victory.
with cutting satire he characterized
Boies with firing of the completion of the
legal status of the town pump and turn
ing his attention to broader fields He
attended a dinner at the New York Re
form Club in 1891, at which Cleveland.
Carlisle and Boies were present, and at
which the latter delivered a high trib-
ute to the prosperity of the country I'M
der the Mckinley law. Mr.. Dolliver eu-
logized the splendid leadership of Reed,
Mckinley. Blaine and Harrison, under
which the Mckinley law had been en-
acted, and described the misrepresenta-
ton Of that law, which had overthrow
the splendid republican phalanx and had
given congress over to the widest as
sortment of political freaks that ever
gave gaiety to nations"
He described how Boies had once again
shifted his horizon and now sought with
some local success" to restore the pros
perity of the republican administration
by advocating unlimited manufacture
of so cent dollars"
The republican side displayed a good
deal of enthusiasm during the delivery
of Mr. Delivers remarks. but Mr.. McMil-
Ian of Tennessee angriy protested against
consuming the brief time for debate with
political harangues, and Mr. Knox of
Massachusetts joined in the protest.
Mr. Bartlett of New York and Mr. Col
son of Kentucky opposed and Mr.. McMil-
Ian advocated the alcohol bill.
The latter denied that the proposed leg
islation was in the interest of the whisky
trust.
Mr.. Dingley closed the debate in favor
of the motion. There were, he said, three
facts to be borne in mind First, this
was not a tariff bill, but was simply an
Internal revenue bill; second, with the
claims against the government piling up,
good legislation demanded its repeal; and
third, the present provision was abso-
lutely unworkable."
By 122 to the house accepted the COM
promise amendment agreed on by the
friends and opponents of the bill, pro-
Viding for the appointment of the com
mission to examine all questions relating
to free alcohol, and report to congress
next December, and as amended the al
cohOl bill was passed, 165 to 60.
Another partial report on the Indian
| appropriation bill. which left only the
questions of sectarian schools and ole
settlers claims still in dispute, was
| adopted.

KETTLE FALLS FRIGHTENING
Hundreds of PrOspectors Are in the
Country Near There.

Kettle Falls, May 25.-As the snow dis
appears from the mountains on the res
ervaton prospectors become more nu-
merous. Several parties crossed the river
at this place last week. Today others go
over who have already located claims
near Curlew lake, only sc miles from
here
An excellent trail leads directly from the
ferry here to Clrrlew and to Lost creek,
the west branch of the Sans Poll. This Is
the old well-known Indian trail and Is
much travelled by them every summer
and well known here TO sportsmen by
reason of their excursions to the trout
streams and lakes in that section
The ferrymen are kept busy these days.
Several loads of provisions went over
today, but will have to be packed the
greater part of the way.
There are wagon roads in the valleys
and Indians bring loads of wheat to THIS
place for sale or to have ground at the
roller mill but the roads do not lead 10
the mineral locations higher up, although
the trails may be widened and with some
amount of grading be made passable for
wagons. If this were done, it would
shorten the route some 60 miles, as now,
to go by wagon, one must follow up the
Kettle river road northwest into British
Columbia, then southwest, up the valley,
in all a distance of nearly 100 miles TO
reach a point only just SO miles from
here.
There are several locations made within
sight of town. One on the Sin-hail-pu
creek and at the mouth of this creek
are washing, as good placer ground has
been located by residents of this town.
The saw mill of T. ]. Reynolds here is
running day and night and is hardly able
to fill orders, and the mill at Meyers
Falls, both on the Colville river, is run
ming at its full capacity. Much of the
lumber is being shipped north, some is
for Marcus, where more building is in
progress than ever before, and some OF
the lumber is for use at the Kettle falls
where a MILL it is said, will be soon put
in operation. There are other improve
ments beginning at this point which will
afford employ ment for a few persons.

MORE DAMAGING TO HERMANs
Salt Lake Police Have Additional
Evidence.

Salt Lake, May 26.-No positive informa-
ton has yet reached the officials here as
to the whereabouts of Rev. Francis Her
mans, although the police department has
been on the alert for the past four days
for some clue that would assist in To-
eating him. The Associated Press dis
patch today saying the pastor was seen
in Chicago last Saturday was eagerly
read by the officials in the hope that fur
Their information would develop. Rev.
Mork says Hermans has many friends in
Chicago, but they reside in the western
part of the city, and not in the vicinity
of stony Island avenue. 1t is believed if
Hermans was innocent of the appalling
crime with which he is charged he would
certainly telegraph his friends in this
city to that effect The officers now as
sert that never before have they been
able to forge so complete and strong a
chain Of circumstantial evidence in any
case of great concern as in this. They
are now directing their efforts to discoV
er what became of Annie X. Samuelson.
The disappearance of her trunk and pur
chase of a large wooden box by the min
lister a few days before her disappear
ance led to the theory that she did not
share the probable fate of her friend,
Henrietta Clausen. Some time ago Her
mans presented to the wife of Rev. Mork
package of handkerchiefs, which he
said formerly belonged to his wife. One
of the handkerchiefs bears the initials
A. X S., which are the initials of Miss
Samuelson.
The entrance to the now notorious little
church still bears on the front door a
metal plate with the name REV. Francis
Hermans." The parishioners are making
a demand for its removal, and x is doubt
full if the building will ever again be used
for worship. Some men here claim the
building should be RACED to the ground
as the city can not afford to have it
pointed out to strangers as an Emanuel
church, within the walls of which scenes
fully as bad as those enacted in it's San
Francisco counterpart have been re-
hearsed.

ny REPEAL OF BAD TARIFF LAW
rouse Decides to stop the Debate on
Alcohol.

nv vote of 165 to 60 passed a bill for
the repeal of a section of the present
tariff law providing for the rebate on
alcohol used in arts or medicinal COM
mounds. An amendment was attached TO
the bill providing for a joint commission
to consist of three members from eacn
house to examine and report on all ques-
lions relating to free alcohol at the next
session. The opposition to the measure
came almost entirely from the eastern
and New England states. The analy SIS
of the vote shows that Sc democrats, 1O4

the bill, and 60 republicans and nine
democrats against the bill.

day charged with killing Private Richard
Scott, of Company G, Sunday night, near
