port.

Mr.. Moody, of Massachusetts, Repub-
iican, one Of the maionity members of

testant, entitled to the seat The MI
nority report was adopted, 1877 to 81 and
amid a round of applause Mr.. Hopkins

MONTANA MURDERS
Double nurdcr, Hoij-up and Jai! Delivery In

ST. PAUL, Feb. 1S.-An Anaconda,
Mont, special to the Pioneer Press says:
A series of crimes was committed in this
city today double murder gambling
house hold-up and jail delivery MAX
ing the record of the day. The vic
tins of the murder are Mrs Frank
Dressler and Sherman Ransom, who
were found together by Frank Dressler,
the wronged husband The man and
wife quarreled a few days ago and have
been living apart. The husband went to
their lodgings about o'clock this morn
ing and broke in the door. The wife
was shot and died instantly. Dressler
then turned his revolver on Ransom AMI
fired four shots, all of which took effect.
The wounded man lived about two
hours. Ransom is a saloon keeper ami
Dressler is a well known gambler. The
Dresslers We're Californians, and We're
married at Reno, New, in November.
The robbery occurred about o'clock
this morning. Two masked men entered
Johnson's gambling house, in which
there were twenty or more men. They
exhibited revolvers and enlptied the cash
register and took all the money in sight
from two faro tables. They got large
amount and escaped in the darkness.

the county Jail at Deer Lodge, and up
to this hour have not been captured.

OREGON POLITICS
The Legislature nay Adjourn ithout Doing
ANY Business

SALEM Ore, Feb. 1S.-A conference
of Republican members Of the joint as
sembly was held this afternoon. The
leading subject of debate was adjourn
ment sine die. There was a decided
division of sentiment, and it was left un-
decided and the conference adjourned
until tomorrow. 1t will then be once
more taken up and conclusion reached
The drift of opinion in the conference
appeared to be that the action of the
senate would determine the adjourn
ment problem. If that body adopts the
resolution it follows that the legislative
session will end at midnight If the
senate refuses to adopt it the effect will
be to hold the members of the house
here and reorganization will be the
probable result. Many members threat
en- to leave after tomorrow in any event
and some of them will carry out their in

TRANSYAAL INDEMNITY
Three Millions for Haterial, Five for Moral
Damages

LONDON, Feb. 1S.-The secretary of
state for the colonies, Mr.. Joseph Cham
berlain, announced in the house of COM
mons today that an official telegram had
been received from the British agent al
Pretoria, capital of Transvaal, on Tues
day. containing a bill of indemnity pre-
sented by the Transvaal as a result OF
the jameson raid. The bill is divided in
to two heads. The first asks for the
payment of G677 1888, 30 shilling pence, as
a material charge, and under the second
head the TransVaal asks for G ,000, 900
for moral and intellect amage.
Mr.. Chamberlain fur...er said that the
telegram that the foregoing demands do
not include the legitimate private claims
which may be advanced.
The telegram of the British agent says
that the indemnity is to be paid by the
British government ''or caused to be
paid by them," apparently suggesting
that the government compel the Brit
ish Chartered South Africa company
to pay it, or in default, that the govern
ment must foot the bill.

tary Herbert and his party, accom-

and gentlemen, left the city at noon
aboard the revenue cutter Colfax for a
visit to the warships. Gov. Ellerbee
of the house also accompanied the party
The CoifaX ran through the mouth Of
the harbor into a heavy fog. which OBJ
scured all sight of the ships. 1t was
with difficulty that the vessels could be
made out. The Columbia was the first
vessel reached, and the secretary sum-
moned Capt. Sands aboard the cutter
to get the positions of the ships. Run
ming to the New York. Admiral Bunce
came aboard the Colfax. The boats were
then lowered and the secretary and most
of the party were taken aboard the
Maine. Here an interesting event was
celebrated. The men were drawn up In
line and the secretary called upon
Landsman Creelman to step forward.
He then presented Creelman a govern
ment gold medal awarded for bravery
during the storm of the Sth. when sew
eral men of the Maine were washed over
board. Creelman jumped in to- the sea
to save the drowning men and was him.
self rescued with difficulty
Cadet Gherardi, who commanded the
boats crew that saved the men, also
was highly complimented by the Sec
retary. The party then returned aboard
the cutter and, the fog having lifted, the
secretary's flag was sent up, and the
cutter ran to the end of the line of
ships to make an inspection of the fleet.
The Maine meantime had gotten under
way and started for New Orleans. AS
