Married thc Same Woman Three Times,
The Rev, Leslie Day and wife are
now man and wife. 1t is thought that
this time there is no question about il,
says the Spokane Wash. Chronicle.
The Rev. Leslie Day, the contrac-
tor for English Government fortifica-
tons, tho convicted traitor to the
English flag, the man sentenced Ia the.
gaIlows, the escaped felon, the recap
tured convict, the man pardoned by
Queen Victoria, the follower and de-
serter of DIR. McInturff, the eloquent
and sensational preacher, the true
friend OF thc Volunteers OF America,
has just been married for the third
time to his first wife and faithful sup
porter. The wedding was performed
at the armory of the Volunteers on
Main avenue by DIR. T. A. Cool. A
large audience paid ten cents each to
witness the ceremony. The money
received will go to establish branch
OF the Volunteers of America ut some
new point.
ALERT the usual opening services Mr..
Day arose and explained why, for the
third time, he deemed it necessary to
be married. While under SEN
tence Of death he had married Miss
Robbie r. Griggs in Victoria. After
his pardon his marriage was pro-
nounced void. Soon after he went to
Spokane and was remarked by Or.
McInturT Of the Peoples United
Church, formerly of the Metho st
Church. lie afterward discovered
that DR.. McInturff's credentials had
been Cancelled when he left the church
which had granted them. He there
fore considers that the marriage per-
formed by the doctor is void. Hence
he decided that he must be remarked.
DIR. Cool then came forward and
united the Rev. Day and wife in the
bonds OF matrimony, performing
short and simple ceremony.

is no settled order in which they are
10 be considered. Propositions have
been exchanged in writing between the
commissions and each commission, in
recess. will separately deliberate upon
them
New York. October "A dispatch to
the Herald from Paris says: Although
the peace commissioners themselves
profess satisfaction with matter as far
as they have so far progressed, a GER
tain amount of inquietude is plainly
discernible on the Spanish side. This
appears to be undoubtedly due TO the
firmness of the Americans.
Report has it that the United States
intends to solve the Philippine difficult
~ by insisting upon the cession of the
rest of the archiepelago. This is said
TO have been n hard blow for the Span
ish commissioners.
1T is said that the Spanish commits
sioners have received definite instruc-
tions to refuse their agreement to the
cession of the island of Luzon unless
the United States will assume the en-
tire Philippine debt. As to the inde-
pendence of the other islands, the COM
missioners are. 1t appears. to refuse
even TO consider II.
General Merritt, in both his confer
ences with the commissioners, is known
TO have strongly urged upon Mr.. Day
and his colleagues the importance Of
holding all the islands. He described
at length the great advantages to the
United States that would result from
the retention of the islands, and also
pointed out that Spain was absolutely
powerless 10 restore her authority. The
general believed that the best solution
was complete annexation"

The Indians have been badly whipped

INDIAN SITUATION
VERY CONTRADICTORY RE-
PORTS.
Many Indians Have Come In Protesting to
~ Brisndiy, hut Their Motives Are
lnpugnsd.

Walker, MIMI, Oct. 9.-When the
troops reached the agency they found
that the friendly Indians had them
selves made "A picket line covering the
whole line OF woods which surround
ed the settlement, as many as fifty of
the Indians having done picket duty.
Now that the troops are on the
grounds these formal preparations for
defense Will probably be abandoned.
but there will be Indian scouts out nll
the time. ready to bring prompt warn-
ing of anything that even looks dan
gcrous. 1t is said by those who
know them that these agency Indians
would not hesitate to kill Il hostile as
quickly as would n soldier.
Last night Mah-Ge-GayBow one of
the head men of the Bear Island In
dians. arrived on the agency point
with twenty-seven canoe loads of the
Bear islanders, comprising those of
them who are for peace. There are
% or 100 in the party, men, women
and children. They went into camp
about five miles from the agency and
Mah.Ge-Gay-B Bow called on General
Bacon at once. He said that he had
told the hostiles on the islands that he
could not go with them. that he and
his friends We're for peace with the
white men. and that they were going
TO the agency.
Minneapolis. Minn.. Oct. "a spe-
cial to the Tribune from its staff cor
respondent at Walker says:
The situation tonight is more omi-
nous than ever. At the agency to-day
counsel was held between the In
dians. General Bacon. Colonel Hex
bach. Indian Agent Sutherland AMI
Marshal O'Connor. The result OF the
conference was not in any way like
that of those previously held. except
in the fact that not one of the leading
men of the different bands was pres
ent.
There We're. however. representa-
'ives present from Bear Island. Cnss
Lake. Otter Tail point. and Pine
Point. but none of these has any in
fiucnce with the tribesmen.
The only conclusion to be drawn is
that the leaders of the different bands
sent men there merely as stool pig
cons and that others of their number
are now preparing for the war path.
most significant fact is this: Sat
urday thirty canoe loads of Bear
Island Indians and their families. pro-
Tossing to he peaceful. arrived at the
agency. To-day every one of the
bucks in the party left. but where
they have gone is only TO be sur
missed. There is little doubt. how
ever. that they have left for Bear
island TO join those who are already
prepared to fight. There must be by
this time several hundred armed men
on the island and from what can be
learned to-day many more are on the
road. Two or three of the Bear
island men who are still on the agency
have been questioned in regard to last
Wednesdays battle. but they posi-
lively stated that they knew nothing
whatever in regard TO the dead and
wounded among the Indians and had
seen none of those who We're in the
fight.
General Bacon announced that the
last council would he held Monday
and the Indians dispersed
