SNOW IN IOWA AND ILLINOIS.
Fall of Two Feet at Many Points in
These States.

Chicago, Feb. 2l.-The states of Wis
consin, Iowa and Illinois are practically
snowbound. An average snowfall of two
feet is reported from Illinois and Iowa
points, while throughout Wisconsin and
northern Michigan the fall was much
heavier, in fact the greatest of the season.
A 40-mile gale has piled the snow into
enormous drifts, completely paralyzing
street railway traffic and interfering with
the operations OF trains. Northern trains
have been delayed in some instances Is
hours, owing to the heavy drifts and
steady fall of snow. which make the use
of snow plows unavailing. Rain and
snow altenated in Chicago and vicinity.
Not enough had fallen tonight, however
to interfere with railway traffic.

MOB AFTER THE MURDERERS.
Ned Aiken and Son Flee From Ven

Little Rock, Ark, Feb. 22.-E. G. Mas
sey, prominent citizen and constable of
Franklin township, Little River County,
was murdered six miles from Ashdown
last night by Ned Aiken and his son and
two negroes, whom he was trying to ar
rest. Massey was shot from ambush, his
lungs being torn from his body by bullets.
Massey had previously arrested Charley
Johnson, Aiken's son-in-law, for carrying
pistol, and johnson had escaped. About
midnight Constable Massey and Richard
Dickens, a deputy, started to Aikens
house to arrest johnson. When near the
house the officers were fired upon from
ambush and Massey fell from his horse
his body riddled with buckshot and Win
chester balls. The negroes rushed from
cover and opened fire upon Dickens, but
he put spurs to his horse and escaped. Elk.

able if Aiken and johnson are captured.

LAWLESSNESS AT SKAGUAY.
Governor Brady Urges Immediate
Action by the Government.

Washington Feb 2l.-The following let
ter received by Secretary Bliss from Gov
ernor Brady of Alaska, has been discussed
at a cabinet meeting:
"The news from Skaguay by the steam
boat now in port is serious The United
States deputy marshal has been shot
dead in the discharge of his duty. An
other man was killed at the same time
and at the same place. Recently the
steamers have been carrying great lists
of passengers. Many of these are gamb-
lers, thugs and lewd women from the
worst quarters of the cities Of the coast.
They have taken in the situation at
Skaguay and Dyea and appear to have
combined to carry things with high
hand. The best people at these places
nicipal form of government. The United
States marshal is powerless because he
can appoint only few deputies and when
they undertake to act they are signaled
out as targets by this ruffian element.
One of this class was tried in the United
States district court last December for
the killing of United States Deputy Mar
shall Wattin in January, 1897, and was ac-
quilted by the jury in the face of positive
testimony. In fact these influences seem
to be Joined hand in hand and will surely
go unpublished until the government takes
action and provides the necessary force
at Skaguay, Dyea and other points.
Congress should grant immediate re-
lief so that both naval and military of
ficers can act when required by the civil
authorities. The United States marshal
should have a patrol vessel at his COM
mand with necessary accommodations for
deputies and a proper attendant. l do
not see how he can perform his duty as
executive officer of the court until he has
such means of locomotion entirely at his
own command.
'At the present time a large and i'm
portant mining property is held by a
number of miners at Berner's Bay. This
property was recently placed in the hands
of receiver by the court but the receiver
has not come into possession up to this
time. In this instance there is much to
be said of the miners action and their
self-control, but it is of such a nature
that violence may be the result. The

point with sufficient force to carry out
the instructions of the court. Judge
johnson leaves by this boat to settle this
affair amicably if possible.
''Two weeks ago or a little more a gang
of men commanded Captain Patterson OF
the steamship Al-Ki to discharge the
natives who were handling freight on the
wharf. They attacked the natives and
beat them cruelty in the face of the dep
uty marshal. The captain was obliged to
compromise with them by paying them
so cents per hour for work on the wharf
but he insisted that the natives should
work on the vessel.
81 am sorry to report that the court
house at Juneau has been burned to the
ground.

for mildness and this tends to bring the
crowds sooner than they were expected

THE CAUSE OF IRELAND.
How an Alliance With England
Might Effect Ireland.

Regarding the much talked of
England-American alliance that
Johnny Bull is trying to bring
about, the Atlanta Constitution re-
marks:
Some of our exchanges are call
ing attention to the fact that some
of the Irish leaders are opposing
the suggested Anglo-American al
lance. 1t is perfectly natural that
they should do so. English op-
preston in Ireland has been for
long years disgrace 10 the civil
cation of the British government
The wrongs of Ireland have APP
pealed to every humane and iber-
ty-Ioving mind in this country.
And yet, it may be that the talk
of an alliance, and the movement
in favor of it, will be more effect
i've in procuring justice for the
Irish than all Discussions of the sub
ject have been. There has been
great improvement in the governs
ment accorded to Ireland; never
theless, the American people will
never consent to an ;.!liance with a
nation which subjects Il r-;-t of its
people to the evils of +, ,.tical OPP
preston.
This may prove an active factor
in Fastening the Irish reforms that
Gladstone had at heart.
