GIRL FORCED TO MARRY.
supper Served without the Presence
of Bride or Groom.

Kansas City, Dec. ls.-James Wall, q
young man well known in independence,
killed himself year ago because he could
not marry Miss Leona Corder, the daugh-
ter of Jackson Corder, one of the old set
tiers of the town.
Her parents had always favored j. H.
Webb, wealthy young man of Lafayette
county. They insisted upon the marriage
when Mr.. Webb asked for her hand, and
finally she consented and the wedding
day was set. 1t was to have been an
elaborate affair.
As the hour for the ceremony approach
ed Miss Corder became hysterieal and de-
clared that she could never forget Wall.
Ten o'clock came and the supper was
served without the presence of the bride
or groom, and it was finally announced
that Miss Corder could not leave her
room and the marriage ceremony would
be performed there. So, in the presence OF
only her parents and the most immediate
relatives of both, Mr.. Webb and Miss Cor
der were married in her room.

DALTON ON RELIEF PARTIES
Hardy Horses Can Do Even Bette
Work Than Reindeer.

Seattle, Dec. 2l.-Jack Dalton, the well
known Alaskan prospector, after whom
the Dalton trail is named, in an interview
speaking of the proposed relief expedition
of the United States government to Alas
ka, said:
"The proposal to use reindeer teams
does not strike me as being the right
thing. Horses can be used to much bet
ter advantage. Instead of reindeer, the
department ought to get together large
number of hardy horses, and sufficient
food should be taken along to feed them
They can do much better work than rein.
deer. l would use sleds for carrying the
food for the men and provender for the
horses. | should say to handle reindeer
expedition successfully it would be ne
cessary to have relays established days
journey apart, with food for the animals
at each of these stations"
Mr. Dalton, in speaking of the best
route by which to take relief, said that
he would go over the Cnilkoot pass and
then down the lakes and the Yukon river
over the ice.

DEFINE THEIR POSITION.
Caucus Ii Unanimous ON All cues
lions Except Civil Service.

Washington, Dec. lS.--A caucus of the
populist members of the house of repre-
sentatives was held at the National hotel
Thursday night. The following resolu.
tons were adopted unanimously, except
that referring to the civil service:
Resolved, That it is the sense Of this
caucus that we will resist all efforts to so
modify the existing civil service law as
to enable any party that may be in power
to fill the different positions in the civil
service with partisans.
Resolved, That we are opposed to and
will resist all efforts to destroy our green
backs and treasury notes, whether it be
direct legislation or by the subterfuge of
refusing to reissue the same except in
exchange for gold.
Resolved, That we are opposed to any
scheme of charging the powers of nation
al banks; that we oppose the comforting
of the power to issue notes, designed to
have the same functions as money, to any
bank, corporation OF individual.
Resolved, That we favor the early con-
sideration and passage of joint resolu-
ton recognizing the independence of the
Cuban republic.
Resolved, That we are in favor Of the
early passage of an equal but voluntary
bankruptcy bill"

WOMAN THE VICTIM
Mrs. Mary Clute Was Assaulted and
Then Beaten to Death.

San Francisco, Dec l6. - A horrible
murder was perpetrated here at dusk last
evening. The victim was woman and
the scene of the crime was the Mission
district, in the vicinity of the Emanuel
church, about five blocks from the edifice.
Many of the features of the crime and its
accompanying circumstances resembled
the tragic death of Minnie Williams and
Blanche Lamont.
1t was about 5 o'clock this afternoon
that the dead body was found in an up
per fiat at 800 Guerrero street by the ten
ants of the lower flat The woman had
been outraged and her body beaten to a
jelly with a coupling pin, which was
found in one of the rooms.
The victim is supposed to be Mrs Mary
G. Clute, a wealthy resident of Watson
Vile, Cal. She had just rented the flat
from Miss Blanchard and the noise of
carpet laying was heard by the people in
the lower fiat. The lacking ceased and
all was quiet for time, then terrible
screams were heard. The occupants of
the lower fiat became alarmed and started
TO investigate when they saw a man leav-
ing by an alleyway leading to the rear
entrance. They asked him the cause of
the trouble, but he vouchsafed no reply
and made his escape.
Joseph Foley, the carpet layer, who was
working in Mrs. Clute's recently-rented
fiat this afternoon, has been arrested. He
says he went to the fat at a o'clock, leav-
ing at o'clock, but asserts that he knows
nothing of any murder.

HAYDENs SLAYER IN CUSTODY.
Crime Confessed and the COlfax Of
ficers Have Identified the Man.

Colfax, Dec. 1.-THE murderers OF Or
vile Hayden are now confined in the
Whitman county Jail and the murder
mystery is solved. One of the murderers
has confessed and given all the details Of
the crime, but the other maintains sto-
lid silence whenever the subject of the
murder is mentioned. Neither of the
men knows that the other is in Jail, each
being in separate departments. The man
who has confessed to the murder is called
Blackey and is known by no other name
He was arrested at Rosalia shortly after
the murder on charge of stealing a roll
OF blankets from an old man at Cakes
dale. Suspicion rested upon him, and
Mr.. Hayden, father of the murdered boy,
who has worked increasingly to bring the
murderers of his son to justice, employed
detective, who was placed in the cell
with Blackey, on a trivial charge. To the
detective and William Herbert, the al
legged horsethief and desperate, Blackey
confessed his crime.

SENATOR CHANDLER PREDICTS
In Case That Secretary Gage ~.
sues His Financial Policy

Washington, Dec. Ex-senator Chad
Ter of New Hampshire has written IA.
ter to the Washington Post, in which IL
says:
IF the Secretary of the treasury and
his gold standard associates win cea.s
their demand for impossible currency leo.
islation, congress will pass the NECESSARY
appropriation bills, probably take care q,
Hawaii and Cuba, there will not be a a.
rious party division during the session 4
and there will be an adjournment.
IF Secretary Gage continues to press
upon congress a bill the object Of which
he says is first to commit the countrv
more thoroughly to the gold standard and
the immediate result Of which is to throw
doubts upon the sincerity of the presj.
dents declarations in favor Of continued
efforts to secure bimetallism, political
turmoil will arise in congress which will
split the now united republican party into
fragments, while it will unite and consoli.
date the now homogeneous opposition. 1t
is not feasible to retire the greenbacks.
and there is more probability that a bill
will be sent to the president to increase
their amount.
at is not possible to secure the passage
through either house of a bill making the
greenbacks into gold notes or authorizing
bonds payable in gold. The effort to do
either thing will probably result in the
passage of bill for the redemption of the
greenbacks in silver dollars and for the
, payment of all United States bonds in
/ gold or silver coin, in the discretion of thu
, president, who will be commanded to ex
ercise his option for the advantage of tn,
, government, and not for the advantag,
, of the creditors"

HAVE SENT AWAY WHEAT.
United States Likely to Need Much
of the tram.

Chicago Dec. 7.-William T. Baker,
president of the board of trade, says with
reference to the unusual conditions in
wheat; Cash wheat is at a premium
over future deliveries here and in all parts
OF the world, because more has been sold
than can be delivered. Wheat is scarce
all over the world. Not enough was
grown last year to supply the demand.
America has its own opportunity to make
its own price for wheat. l now think
this country already has exported a mil
lion bushels of wheat which it will soon
need for its own consumption, and the
full scarcity is not by any means yet APP
preeiated."

MR.. BRYAN AT MEXICO.
His Reception Has No Parallel in
the History of That City.

City of Mexico, Dec. l6.-Mr. Bryan
and party arrived here over the Mexican
National railway from Toledo at $3.50 last
night, and a great crowd of Americans
and Mexicans were awaiting the arrival
of the distinguished political leader. Col,
onel Garcia of President Diaz's staff, in
full uniform, greeted and welcomed Mr..
Bryan in the name of the chief magistrate
and escorted him to the presidents pri-
vate carriage The famous Twenty-sev-
enth regiment was stationed on the plat
form. Great enthusiasm was manifested
among the many Americans present, and
cheers and tigers for Mr.. Bryan rent the
air, and loud calls were made for speech.
But he refused TO talk, and again he was
cheered, Mrs. Bryan coming in for her
share of the applause. Nothing like last
nights demonstration has ever been seen
in Mexico. President Diaz has given or
ders that Mr.. Bryan shall be considered
as specially horore1 guest.

BAD sLEET STORM IN TEXAS
Wires Down in All Directions From
Dallas.

st. Louis, Dec. 20.-One of the worst
sleet storms in the history OF Texas pre-
vailed in the state yesterday 1t is i'm,
possible tonight to get any information
whatever from Dallas, the center of the
storm section, as the wires are down. As
showing the extent of the storm, the tele,
graph companies can get no nearer Dallas
on the south than Waco, Marshall on the
east, Eagle Pass on the west, and some
points in the southern part of the Indian
territory on the north, showing that it
covered several hundred miles of territory.
The wires work no further than those
points and it is thought the destruction
has been heavy. Linemen have been or
dered from all parts of Texas to repair
the damage. Nothing further can be learn.
ed from the storm district to show wheth.
er damage had been done to anything
other than the wires.

Money Is i'm strong Demand.

London, Dec. 2l.-Money was in strong
demand last week during the settlement.
Between two and three million pounds
sterling We're borrowed for bank pay day
alone. These borrowings eased the mar
ket, but in view of the extra Christmas
demands stiff rates are expected to prevail
for another fortnight. Gold continues in
strong demand for Germany and therefore
discount rates are not likely to decline.

son, four children, parents and brothers,
are down with the measles. They live on
the reservation. The attendance at the
public schools and Pendleton academy has

RECOGNIZED AS A CHURCH.
Christian Science Treatment of Dis
ease a Violation of Law.

Philadelphia, Pa, Dec. l7.--As result
of the recent decision of Presiding Judge
Pennypacker of the court Of common
pleas, refusing to grant a charter to the
First Church of Christ of Christian Scien-
lists, bill is to be introduced into the
next session of the legislature, amending
the laws relating to schools of medicine
SO as to admit of the recognition of the
Christian Scientists as a portion of the
healing fraternity, although as distinct
sect or society, very much as the homeo-
pathists or eclectics are recognized as dis
tinct from the allopaths
The decision of Judge Pennypacker,
which is likely to be used as text book
by the schools of science opposed to
Christian Science, in the conflicts that
sooner or later are bound to occur in nu-
merous states, was not arrived at until he
had digested mass of testimony taken
before master in chancery. During these
| hearings many witnesses testified that
under no circumstances would they allow
doctor to attend any member of their
family, and that even in the case of tri-
chinosis, which is caused by animalculae
breeding in the body and feeding in the
muscles, they would depend upon faith
rather than upon external means of kill
ing such animalculae or rendering them
harmless.
In his decision Judge Pennypacker
takes the ground that Christian Science
is church rather than school of medi-
cine, notwithstanding Mrs. Eddy's declar-
alton that the treatment extends to the
most serious and fatal diseases, and hence
he holds that the treatment of disease by
''healers" of the church for fees and com.
pensation is in direct violation of the law
