The time OF the session was devoted to

Until after the other features of the

Milwaukee, Dec. 15.-The fact
leaked out Tuesday that the innict-

Der IS, 1898, was nolled in secret by
Judge Walber of the municipal court
November 7, last President TRIUMPH

sion of sensations followed the failure
of the bank Shortly after the bank
closed it was discovered that Cashier
John b. Koetting was gone; then in
quiries were made for TRIUMPH and he
too haa disappeared. The ledger of
the bank also was missing. Koetting
was arrested in Denver, brought back
and after being released took second

meeting are in substance that the time
has arrived for the south to demand of
congress better banking facilities I'M
der a just ana equitable federal law;
that the United States government
should retire from the banking bust
ness, and the whole system of national
finances be adjusted on such scientific
basis as will give each section of our
common country a circulating medium
adequate to it's business and based
upon its commercial assets; that note
holders and general creditors should
be protected under federal laws, ana
that the measure Of value should be

crimination between state and national

latter but under federal supervision.

TAKEN FOR A WILD ANIMAL.
Young Hunter of Black River Falls
Killed.

Black River Falls, Wis, Dec. IS
The body of Dell Naughtal, a young
man about Il years of age, residing in
this city, was found near the railroad
track between this city and Mcmillan.
The young man left home Saturday to
lcok at some traps he had set in the
woons, but did rot return. A search
was made and the body was discovered
near Wrightsville with bullet
through the groin. 1t is believed that
young Naughtal met his death at the
hands of an unknown person, as his
gun was found standing against tree
a short distance from where he lay. 1t
is evident that he was on his hands
and knees looking into fox's burrow
when he received the fatal shot. He
undoubtedly was taken for some wild
animal by the person who fired the
shot. The ball entered his groin
through the right thigh An inquest
will be made and strong effort will
be made by the authorities to find out
who the careless hunter was.

INDIANS TO HUNT WOLVES.

Black River Falls, Wis, Dee, 15.-
The annual wolf hunt, which takes
place about the holidays among the
Winnobago Indians. is looked forward
to with more expectancy than the
discriminating season. A first class
wolf hunter makes mere money on
wolves than he does ON deer, and
from reports In different parts OF the
county wolves of the big gray timber
variety are numerous this winter
Several have been killed near Sham
rock, but the hig hunt viii be held
among tho bluffs In jackson and Trem-
pealeau counties to the west of this
city The Indians expect to make a
good haul in the roundup.

Washington, Dec. 10, Secretary
Gage will appear before the house
committee on banking and currency
tomorrow and submit a general bill
in the line of his recommendations
recently made to congress. This
determination of Gage to submit a
general financial bill instead OF n
number of separate bills has brought
out many expressions of satisfaction.
1t had the effect of clearing up the
situation which was becoming
strained and gave promise of an
early report to congress on financial
bills, An understandings was reached
as result of visit to the capitol OF
the solicitor of the treasury, Cornell,
representing Gage, He talked with
number of republican leaders and
1t is understood was advised by Ding
ley and others that it would be de-
sirable to embrace the financial sub
iects in one general bill. Later the
solicitor met the members OF the COM
mittee on banking and currency. The
committee desired to take the Gage
bill and also that submitted by the
monetary conference under consider
alton during the holidays In order to
be In position to report the progress
when the house reconvened after re-
cess. 1t was decided therefore that
Gage should submit his measure to-
morrow and appear in person to ex-
plain it's merits and answer questions
from the committee. 1t Is also made
clear that the secretary would cover
all of his proposals in one general Dill
instead of cutting the subject up.
This arrangement gave general salts
faction and 1t was decided that the
first thing to be done was to report
the bill embodying the three features
recommended by the president viz;
| A reduction of the tax ON circulation
to one-half of one per cent, issuance
of circulation up to the par value OF
bonds deposited and the establish
ment of small banks in rural com
munities. While these will be en-
| bodied in Cages plan, yet as they
were specially advised in the presi-
dents message it was felt to be adj
visable to give the house an oppor-
! tunity to act on them at once without
waiting for a report on the Gage bill.

SHOULD REDlvlDE LANDS.
so COMMITTEE SAYS OF PROP
ERTY HELD BY REDMEN.
Inaian Commissioner w. A. Jones In
vestigates Trip-Finds All but
Osages Doing Well.

Washington, Dec. 15.-The sub
committee on Indian affairs appointed
to consider the problems presented in
the Indian territory has practically
decided to recommend amendments to
the present law providing for the APP
portionment of all lands held by the
five civilized tribes among members OF
these tribes and also an amendment
providing that all tribes shall be rec
ogniZed by the government of the
United States and that the money paid
out on account of them be converted
irto the treasury of the United States
for the benefit of the various tribes
as such. 1t is believed by the commit
tee that these additions to the law in
connection with the reforms which are
to go into effect on January / next
under the provisions of the Indian ap-
preparation bill Of last year will be suf-
ficient to meet the demands of the oc-
casion. The conference between the
senate and house committees will be
held at an early day for the purpose
"a d6l III q plah VI oSlloh W NC
pursued by both houses.
Commissioner w. A. Jones of the
Indian office has returned from a trip
of investigation of the Indian agencies
in Oklahoma and Indian territory
Generally speaking he found that in
Oklahoma the wards of the nation
are making fairly good progress in
the steps of civilization. A notable
exception is that of the full-blooded
Usage tribe which, he says, is less adj
vanced than ten years ago. The mem
bers are indolent and lazy, living al
most entirely on annuities, but
those compelled to work the com
missioner says are in the best condi-
ton.

Washington, Dec. 15.-The caucus
of the democratic members OF the
house representatives last night re-
suited in the adoption OF resolutions
defining the party policy ON the Ques-
tions of Cuba, finance and BANKRUPTCY
The caucus was largely attended, l0l
of the 125 democratic members oelhs
persent. Mr.. Bailey (TeXas) presented
the following series of resolutions
which were finally adopted:
RESOLVED, that it is the sense of
this caucus that the democratic
members of the house ought to resist
all efforts direct or indirect TO He-
tire greenbacks and treasury notes.
Second, we are opposed to and VIII
resist all attempts to extend extra
privileges to national banks OF re-
duce the taxes which they now pay.
"Third we favor an early consider
Grafton and passage of the senate res
olution recognizing that a condition
of war exists in Cuba between the
government of Spain and the CUBAN
people.
"Fourth. we favor the early enact
ment of just and wise bankruptcy
law"
The first three features OF the reso-
buttons were considered separately
the discussion being vigorous ana
unanimously favorable. Mr.. Bailey
made the main speech, saying that the
democratic members should take their
position promptly against those imam
cial movements now assuming formid-
axle dimensions owing to the recon-
nendations given to them by the pres
ident and secretary Of the treasury :
He also spoke for a clear-cut position
in favor of the recognition OF Cuban
belligerency. There was not dis
senting voice to Mr.. Bailey's propo-
sitions and the first three resolutions
were carried by a unanimous vote.
The fourth feature of the resolutions
met with some opposition. MT.
Dearmond argued that 1t was not eX-
pedient for the party to take posi-
ion favorable to the bankruptcy bill
at this time. The resolution finally
prevailed by large majority On
motion of Mr. Maddox arrangements
were made for the usual congressional
committee to conduct the congression-
al campaign Of 1898.
