FIERCE FIGHT. FOR FREEDOM
FEMALE KIDNAPER BATTLES
WITH THE OFFICERS.
Ann Ingersoll Bites and Scratches
All the Way From Chicago to the
Joliet Penitentiary.

Chicago, July 11.-Mrs. Elizabeth Ann
Ingersoll, kidnaper Of Gerald Lapiner
spent last night in solitary confine-
ment in a padded cell in the peniten-
tiary at Joliet. The terrific struggle for
liberty which she began when the Of
ficers started TO take her from the
county Jail in Chicago was kept up all
the way to the prison. So intense be-
came her rage that she tore with her
teeth and hands several handkerchiefs
into shredS.
At Joliet she became more frantic,
and her often repeated cry that she
would never go behind the bars was
accentuated by imprecations poured
upon the officers, and the warden
locked her in solitary confinement un-
til she would quiet down.
The warden said it was the worst
case he ever had to contend with. There
was no hysteria about it. She had full
control of herself, but was just ugly.

THE JOKE OF PARIS
Count CaStellane's Letter to the
Prince of Monaco.
SUBJECT OF RIDIcULE
ANNA GOULD'S HUSBAND rs
HELD IN CONTEMPT.
Newspapers eoking Fun at Him and
Want to Know if the Army Has
No Better Champion - Evaded
Military Career-No Sign Of a
Duel.

New York, July ia dispatch to
the World from Paris says: Count
Boni de Castellane, who married Anna
Gould of New York, has not challenged
the Prince of Monaco to a duel, as was
reported by New York newspaper.
and if he expected challenge from the
prince he has been disappointed so far.
The facts in the case are these: The
ruler of Monte Carlo sent an open let
ter to Nine. Dreyfus, expressing SYM
pathy for her. and inviting her husband
to recuperate at a castle which the
Prince of Monaco owns in French ter
ritory, when the holy work of justice
is accomplished and Dreyfus is liber-
ated."
The next day Count Castellane sent
to the newspapers a sensational answer
to that letter.
Although the Prince of Monaco's lit
tie manifesto is generally regarded as
uncalled for, Count de CasteIlane's re-
joinder Immediately became the joke of
Paris. 1t was high pitched, places so
incorrect as to be obscure, and con-
tanned efforts at sarcasm which are
conceded to be tactless and hrutally Of
fensive.
Regarded as Silly.
prince with meddling unbecoming a for
eigner. but he suggested that the prince
may be connected with Dreyfus by
marriage, and made other remarks
which are unanimously considered silly.
Castellane, being generally held in
contempt here, the newspapers are ex-
tracing great fun out of this incident,
and abusing him rather severely. The
French public is inquiring: Has our
army no better champion?"
1t is pointed out that while Castel-
lane has succeeded in evading the most
of his military service, the Prince of
Monaco, although a foreigner, enlisted
as a private, and served France
throughout the Franco-Prussian war.
Monaco's letter was sent from Den
mark. and as his yacht is cruising in
the North sea, it is probable he has not
received Castellanes answer. At any
rate. he has not acknowledged the re-
ceipt yet.
1t is not believed here that the prince
would condescend to duel with such
a ridiculous person.

CHARGES AGAINST AGENT.
Arbitrary In Management of Indian
Affairs In Nevada.

Washington, July 11.-Charges have
been filed against Indian Agent John S.
Mayhugh of the White Rock agency in
Nevada, alleging, among other things,
arbitrary administration. These charges
are the outcome of a dispute as to the
management of the agency school, and
have already caused two investigations
by order of Washington authorities.

PLOTS OF THE oRLEANIsTs.
Castellane, de Roulede and Guerin,
Implicated By the Police.

Paris. July 11.-At a cabinet meeting
today the minister of the interior con-
firmed the authenticity of the .Orleanist
intrigues set fort hin the report of the
project of police published in the Ga
zette de France yesterday, and an in
vestigation will be made in order to
find out how it reached the newspa-
pers.
1t is believed that the police reports
regarding the royalist plots are exag-
gerated. Comte Boni de Castellane,
Paul de Roulede and Jules Guerin, the
deputy, all deny the statements of the
police concerning them.
Nothing is known here of any con-
templated duel between Comte Boni de
Castellane and the Prince of Monaco.
The latter's residence in Paris is closed
and the whole household is away.

Kellogg with the rioters. On the return
trip he recognized Corcoran- At KEEL

Clark was asked to identify his tes-
timony before the coroner's jury, when
he stated positively that he saw Paul
Corcoran on the train between Ward
ner and Wallace when the mob was re-
turning, April %. He said that he
could scarcely be mistaken, knowing
Corcoran intimately. He also replied in
the negative when asked if he possibly
was mistaken in the man.

Under cross-examination he said he
was confined at Wardner two weeks
and four days, beginning May 5. He
was released, but four weeks later was
re-arrested and had been held since.

tions tending to show that the testi-
mony before the coroner was given as

in any manner. Continuing, he said he
had talked with Mace Campbell this
morning, and Campbell said:

your testimony before the coroner"

the same as that given in the removal

had been to employ no union men. dis
charging any known to belong to the
union. He did not discriminate against
members of other labor organizations.

Hill mine, succeeded Burbidge on the
stand, but he merely detailed infinitely
the occurrences of April % and 26, when
the strike was declared.

guard challenged them, one fired at

New York, July ia dispatch to the
Times from London says: Mr.. Dillon,
in parliament, asked the Right Hon.
Joseph Chamberlain, secretary of state
for the colonies, if any dispatches re-
garding the Transvaal from Sir Will
liam Butler, commander-in-chief in
South Africa, had been withheld while
Sir William Butler was acting for Sir
Alfred Miner, British high commits
sioner for South Africa. Mr.. Chamber
lain replied in the affirmative, but add
ed that there was no objection to their
publication.
Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman
liberal member for Sterling, asked Mr..
baIIour, the leader of the house of COM
mons, for the latest information regard
ing the progress of negotiations in the
Transvaal. He was referred to Mr..
Chamberlain, and the latter asked for
time on the ground that the present
situation is acute.
Estimate of Forces.
There are now 10000 troops in South
Africa. The official estimate for the
Boer males of 16 years old and upward,
plus a third of those under 16. is only
39,03S. Thus there is an English soldier
for every Boer, man and boy, able to
carry a gun in the Transvaal.
The Tory and Liberal press are clear
~ divided on the question of the con-
cessions offered by President Kruger.
The Tory press, as represented by the
Standard, says:
If any honest Englishman should find
himself unable to grasp the result of
the reforms granted to the Outlanders,
he need feel ashamed.
The Liberal press, as represented by
the Westminster Gazette, says: Under
Sir Alfred Miners scheme the whole
Outlander population, which came into
the country in or before 1897, would
have had the franchise in 1902 Under
President KrugerS latest scheme they
will all have it in 1904 Under Sir AL
fred Miners scheme all newcomers
from this time forth would have got
the franchise in five years. Under
President Krugers scheme they will
wait for seven years.
The st. James Gazette suggests the
interrogation of the steamer Reichstag,
which left Naples last week with Is, 600
rifles, 500 tons of war material and 500
mules for the Transvaal
