LYNCHING OF THE INDIANS.
Two of the Dead Bucks Witnesses
Needed by the Government.

Two of the Dead Bucks Witnesses
Needed by the Government.
Bismarck, S. D., Nov. 15.-An interest
ing legal question is presented by yester-
days lynching of three of the Spicer muir
derers. Two of the men, Holytrack and
Ireland, were the states witnesses, and
without their testimony the state has no
case against the two surviving suspects,
Black Hawk and Defender There is,
therefore, now no possibility of convictlng
them before any tribunal for the reason
that the states witnesses, self-confessed
accomplices, are dead.
The feeling against Black Hawk has
been intensified by the report that Coudot
confessed before his hanging that Black
Hawk and Defender were concerned in
the crime. 1t has been the opinion of a
large number of people In Edmounds coun-
tyl that Black Hawk was the instigator of
the crime If he is discharged 1t Is predict
ed that unless he has an escort out of the
country, he will share the fate of his COM
rades in crime. Defender, the other sur
vivor, has consumption, and it is predicted
cannot live a year.
1t is claimed that the majority of the
lynchers were from Winona, where the
crime was committed, but nothing certain
is known Two of the men hanged were
wards of the government, and the lynching
may bring about some action by the gov
ernment to discover by whom they were
lynched.
Blackhawk and Defender were remov-
ed by Sheriff Taylor to-day from the
county Jail to the state penitentiary to
protect them from possible mob violence.

DREYFUs MAY DE INNOCENT.
Proof That He Is Claimed to Have
Been Laid Before blot.

Paris, Nov. I'm. SCheurer-Kestner,
one of the vice presidents of the Senate,
who has been agltating for a re-openIng
of the case of Alfred Dreyfus, the former
captain of artillery, now undergoing Il
sentence of life Imprisonment for life for
selling important French military plans
to agents of a foreign power has written
a letter 20 the newspapers in which he
asserts that on Oct. 80 he presented the
French minister for war. Gen. Blot, doc
uments proving the prisoner innocent. Nj.
Scheurer-K esther adds that the minister
promised TO make an inquiry into the
matter and also undertook to communi-
cate to NJ. Scheurer-Kestner the result
within a fortnight pledging the latter to
silence in the meanwhile. Continuing, M
Scheurer-Kestner explains that this Is
the reason of his, misunderstood silence,
but as the fortnight has elapsed without
the minister of war communicating with
him, he now repeats, without fear of con-
tradiction. that he showed the minister
documents which easily establish the cul-
pabillty of another than Dreyfus.
The letter of NJ. Scheurer- -Kestner caus-
ed considerable excitement in the lobbies
of the chamber of deputies, and 1t is ex-
pected the cabinet will discuss the sit
uation tomorrow, and issue a pronounce.
ment on the subject.
M. Scheurer-Kestner, in recent letter
to Gen. Blot, declared that a rich and
titled officer. well-known in Paris society,
had been requested to resign in conse-
quence of the continued leaking of militia
ry secrets since Capt. Dreyfus was deport-
ed Furthermore, he declared that this
officer was the author of the unsigned let
ter which led to the condemnation of Capt.
Dreyfus. The newspapers tomorrow will
publish the letter, which the brother OF
Capt. Dreyfus sent to Gen. Blot the min
lister for war, denouncing Comte Ester
ton of the author of the UNSIGNED letter.

NEW YORK's HORSE SHOW.
The Opening Night Social and
ArtIatic Success.

Artistic Success.
New York. Nov. 15.--The entertainment
of the first night of the thirteenth annual
exhibition of the New York horse show
opened with a parade of stations, which
was witnessed by very few. indeed, of the
society folks hereabouts. While the an
imaS were being led to their quarters the
boxes began to fill with late comers, and
there were about 800 people in the first
tier boxes when the saddle horses began
their performance.
There were twenty-six thoroughbreds in
this class, and they looked extremely pret-
ty as they We're put through their PAGES
before the critical eyes of the judges. The
gentler sex was represented among the
riders by Mrs Beach and Miss Belle
Beach.
AS the night advanced, and despite the
inclemency OF the weather without. the
garden finally took on horse show as
pect, and the show of 1897 was saved from
a social failure. At 10 p m. the boxes
were a sight upon which an artist might
feast his eyes with profit; the magnificent
gowns the wonderful millinery creations,
the smiling, flushed faces the beautiful
steeds in the center of the garden, the
crowded promenade, the myriad lights,
made one glorious color picture In which
happiness predominated.
In the opinion Of experts, who have at
tended other horse shows It was a good,
nay, a brilliant opening night, which be-
came more gratifying because it was so
late in taking form. The nights attend
ance at the lowest estimate reached 5000
people. The high steppers and the hurdle
jumpers were seen at their best before the
days exhibition came to a close.

sEALERIEs CONFERENCE.
An Agreement Reached on All Hut
Three or Four Points.

our
Washington, Nov. 15.-The British Can
adian and American delegates to the Ber-
ing sea meeting had confidently expected
to bring their labors to a close to-day.
but after two arduous sessions lasting un-
til $50 this evening. the experts had not
been able to reconcile all their differences.
1t was determined, therefore. to continue
the meeting tomorrow. Up to the time Of
closing to-day the experts had made good
progress, reaching an agreement on all
but three or four reserved propositions.
These, it Is expected. can be agreed upon
during the morning session tomorrow so
that the expert report can be discussed
and the meeting concluded SO far as the
experts are concerned.
This will make available all the data
necessary for considering the vital diplo-
matte question of stopping pelagic seal
ing The intention is that Gen. Foster,
Sir Wilfred Laurler and Sir Louis Davies
will meet tomorrow afternoon, and go
over the results reported by the experts,
and, If possible, agree upon basis OF set
tlement The outcome of this diplomatic
meeting continues much In doubt. 1t was
intimated tonight that the Canadians
might make a counter proposition, not go
ing as far as the American representatives
desire In the way OF limiting pelaglc seal
ing but yet Offering a possible ground for
amlcable adjustment. Equally reliable
sources stated that II the issue assumed
the form of pelaglc sealing or no pelagic
sealing, as now seemed likely, 1T would be
extremely difficult to reconcile the differ
ences In view Of the continuation of the
meeting, Sir Wilfred and Sir Louis will
not leave until tomorrow night or We'd
peSday.
