Deputy Sheriff Weldon drove the
stage in from Hamilton last Monday.
He reports that the Elko County Live
stock Association has refused to allow
himself and Clarence Moorman any
compensation whatever for chasing the
two horse thieves couple of months
ago and recovering three of the horses
stolen from members of the Association.
Mr.. Weldon still has the horses and re-
fuses to give them up until he is paid
for the hardships and risks which he
and his companions endured during
their long ride after the thieves While
the Association is not legally liable, its
action seems very short-sighted, and will
certainly not encourage others to en-
danger their lives and limbs in its in
terests.

TO Be TRIED FOR LYNCHING
TRUE ELL FOUND AGAINST THIR-
TEEN MEN.
They KILLED Postmaster Baker, ut Lake
City, s. C., February 2@, 1898
Judge in His Charge to the Jury SAID
the Crime Was One of the Blacklist
Ever Perpetrnted in the south.

Charleston, S. c., April Tn the
United States circuit court here to-day
Judge w. H. Brawley presiding, true
bill was found by the grand jury against
thirteen of the men accused of lynching
Frazer B. Baker at Lake City, S. c., on
February 22 1898. Fifteen men are un-
der arrest, but no explanation of the
dropping of two names from the indict-
ment was given.
Before giving the case out Judge
Brawley delivered an impressive charge.
He did so, he said, owing to the gravity
of the case. The crime was one or the
blacklist ever perpetrated in South car
olina he said, and it was the duty OF
the government to prosecute to the full-
est extent any or all of the men who
might have been implicated in it's COM
mission. The jury retired and brought
in the bill after being out less than an
hour.
On the night of February %, 1898,
mob went to the house of Postmaster
Frazer B. Baker, a negro, who was OBJ
noxious to the people of the town. OH
was poured on shavings piled against
the house and set fire to. When Baker,
his wife and child tried to escape he and
his infant daughter were killed, while
his wife and two other children were
seriously wounded by men shooting at
them from the woods. The men on trial
now are Martin Ward w. A. Webster,
Ezra Mcknight, Henry Stokes Henry
Goodwin, Moultre Epps Charles ID. Jay
ner, Oscar Kelly, Marion Clark, Alonzo
Rodgers, Edwin M. Rodgers, Joseph P.
Newham and Early P. Lee, merchants
and farmers of Lake City and vicinity.

ed states evidence. The trial will begin

Il $G,OOO,OOO SALE.
Connecticut Capitalists Sell Their In
terest I'm the Parrot Mine.


One Of the many big financial trans
actions of the present season has just
been consummated, and the Journal and
Courier is enabled to announce this
morning that Franklin Farrell, Thomas
Wallace, jr., and Robert D. Grant have
sold their interest in the Parrot Silver
and Copper company. These men own
ed, as is generally understood, the con-
trolling interest in this very valuable
property. They were in Boston this
week, and having received what they
deemed favorable offer for their in
terest, concluded to dispose of the same.
1t is understood that interests connected
with the Standard Oil company are the
purchasers.
Mr.. Farrel has decided not to interest
himself again in the copper business at
present, and is now in no way connected
with any copper company. He has been
for years president of the Parrot COM
pany and one of it's leading owners. The
Parrot stock has more than doubled in
value inside of a year. Last spring 1T
was selling at $25 or $26 a share. The
par value is $40 a share. Recently 1t
sold as high as 81 or so. 1t is now SELL
ing at about 81. The stock is paying
dividends now of per cent. a month.
This dividend rate began December
last Before that it paid ~ per cent.
month. The property mas no mortgage
upon it. One of our prominent citizens
Rutherford Trowbridge, who has been
a large holder of the Parrot stock, has,
it is understood, sold his extensive hold
ings, having joined with Mr.. Farrell and
the other men named above in this Bos-
ton transaction. The proceeds received
by the party amounted, it is currently
reported, to $6,000,000.

TRIED TO EAT HIS Hat.
Act of One of the Boston COunterfetters
After Being Sentenced.

Boston, April 7.-Antonio Cutugnio,
one of the alleged gang of counterfeiters
arrested here some time ago, was found
guilty by jury in the United States
court this afternoon and was sentenced
to serve ten years imprisonment. On
hearing the sentence he called for
knife. which was refused him. He then
seized his soft hat in his teeth and be-
gan tearing it and attempted to swal-
low the fragments. 1t was necessary
to use force in taking the article away
from him, and he was placed under re-
straint. In the case of the three other
Italians charged with passing counter
felt money a postponement of sentence
was asked until tomorrow morning,
as the lawyer for the defense stated
that one of the Italian informers had
perjured himself. He stated also that
the defense also would ask that on ac-
count of the perjury a new trial be
granted.
After Cutugnio had been sentenced
and Judge Lowell had left the room the
prisoner hurled all manner of epithets
at Musco and Leonardo, the government
witnesses, some of the words used being
Spy, assassin, snake and devil" There
were no threats of killing, no promises
of vengeance. Instead, in addition to
the cries of spy and assassin, curses
upon the gray hairs Of his mother and
the body of his wife made Musco and
Leonardo nervous and finally Musco
hurried from the room. In the cage
were the man first sentenced and the
others awaiting sentence. All made
mysterious gestures, and even Leonardo
was visibly affected by fright. Mean
while Deputy Marshal Waters, the Off
GERS of the court and the prisoners at
torney strove in vain to quell the dis
turbance. The prisoners made attempts
to wrench themselves free of the hand
cuffs which bound them together in
pairs until finally the prisoners were re-
moved.

EUROPEAN NAVAL SQUADRON.


Washington, April 7.--Stnce the sug-
gestion was made four months ago that
the navy department should re-establish
the European squadron and lnclude
among the vessels to be detailed to that
station some of those which took dis
tinguished part in the great naval pat
tie of July 3 the municipal authorities
of some of the English ports have in
vited the department to send the ships
to these places, promising royal well
come. The department, however, has
been unable to carry out its plans for
the immediate establishment OF the Eu-
ropean squadron, owing, in the first
place. to the necessity of dispatching
most of the smaller vessels of the North
Atlantic squadron to reinforce Dewey's
fleet, and, in the second place, to the
desire to avoid remission of the an
nual spring and summer manoeuvres OF
the North Atlantic squadron. Now II
is suggested that if the European
squadron is not to be re-established 1t
may be at least feasible to send some OF
the crack ships of the North Atlantic
squadron across the Atlantic on visit
of courtesy to the English ports as soon
as the manoeuvres now in progress IN
the Caribbean Sea are concluded and the
ships have had an opportunity to rent.
The execution of this plan would, it IS
said, involve the sending of Rear Ad-
miral Sampson himself in command of
the flying squadron. This suggestion
has not, so far, taken anything like an
official form.

TIKING OF THE TWELFTH CENSUS.



Washington, April 1.-THE following
scheme for the division of the country
into supervisor districts for the pur-
poses of the twelfth census was sub
mitted by Henry Gaunet, geographer OF
the census, and adopted by Director
Merriam. The census act provides that
the whole number of supervisors dis
tricts shall not exceed 300 and that
wherever practicable the boundaries of
these districts shall conform to those Of
the congressional districts. The num-
ber of congressional districts is 357, to
which must be added eight territorial
districts, including one for Hawaii and
two for Alaska. The number OF dis
tricts to be saved by consolidation is
therefore G5. In the interests of the
enumeration, 1t has been deemed advis-
able to effect such consolidation where
the population is denser than the aver
age, rather than in sparsely settled re-
gions. The places in which most of 1t
will be effected are accordingly, the
densely settled states and the largest
cities, namely, New York, Chicago.
Philadelphia Baltimore, Cincinnati,
Cleveland, st. Louis, New Orleans San
Francisco, Milwaukee, Boston and Buff
falo This arrangement, 1t is believed,
will insure greater individual respon-
sbility for the numeration and the in
creased population to the supervisor
will enable the census Office to secure
the services Of a gentleman of larger
experience and capacity than if the
work were divided among several su-
pervisors at a lower rate. The CEN
sus act further provides that the SUI
pervisors shall be appointed by the
president, by and with the advice and
consent of the senate.
The following Is the number Of dis
tricts allotted to each state and terri
tory: Alabama, s; Alaska, 2; Arizona,
l. Arkansas, 6; California, 6; Colorado

The Associated Press representative at
Honolulu sends an account of racial
battle between the japanese and Chi
neses laborers on the Kalaku planta-
tion which took place on March 26. The
Japanese armed heavy and we'll organ
lied made an onslaught on the Chinese
quarters, first having placed their own
women and children in places of safety.
The Chinese were taken entirely un-
awares. The Japaneses welded spikes,
clubs, knives and axes and before the
Chinese could make resistance, three of
their men were killed and dozen more
seriously wounded, some fatally, and
about forty slightly injured. The noise
of the battle reached headquarters and
the manager of the plantation, Mr..
Wright, gathered a force of Lunas and
went to the scene of the trouble. After
considerably difficulty the belligerents
were dispersed. A squad of police was
sent from Honolulu and martial law
was declared on the plantation. Twen-
ty-three of the japanese ringleaders
were arrested and seven Chinese also
were Jailed. The Chinse on the island
are greatly excited and the merchants
in Honolulu look for further trouble,
though the better class are making ev-
cry effort to keep the opposing factions
within legal bounds.

MEDALS FOR PA AroNIA's cREW.
The Bravery of the Mem i'm Sticking to
the Steamer Rewarded.


the Steamer Rewarded.
Liverpool, April AT the town hall
here this afternoon the lord mayor of
Liverpool presented to the captain, Off
GERS and crew of the Cunard line steam
er Pavonia an illuminated address and
medals in recognition of their devotion
to duty in behalf of the Mercantile
Marine Service association and Lloyds.
The Cunard line steamer Pavonia,
Captain Atkins, which left Liverpool
on January "a for Boston was toTed
into st. Michael, Azore Islands, on
February Is by the British steamer
Wolviston, in a disabled condition. The
Pavonia had encountered a terrific gale
on January 30 and for three days the
engines We're slowed, while heavy seas
tossed the steamer about. Evenually
her boilers began to move in their era
dies and to bump against each other,
but the engineers, after most arduous
labors, secured the boilers with ropes
and chains and succeeded in holding
them in place. 1t was found, however,
that the steam pipes were broken. Dur
ing the storm three boats were lost,
part of the port rail and the galley We're
carried away, the bakehouse was stove
in and altogether the Pavonia, on her
arrival at st. Michaels, was in piti-
ably damaged condition On March II
she arrived at Liverpool in tow of two
tugs. The crew. it appears. never lost
confidence, though they asserted that
the vessel rolled so tremendously that
it would have been possible to walk on
her inner sides. The Cunard
company denounced the charges
of cowardice, said to have
been brought against CAPTAIN Atkins
and Chief Engineer Duncan by passen-
gers of the Pavonia, (who reached New
York on March Z on the Portuguese
steamer Vega, from Ponta del Gada,
Azore islands, as being wicked, malig
nant and unfounded' and on March 30
the committee of Lloyds decided to be-
stow medals on Captain Atkins and
Chief Engineer Duncan.
