MURDOCH NOTE CASE.
Attorney Lusk Concludes His Ar
gument for the Defense.

WILLOWS, May 15.-In the Muir
dock case this morning Attorney Lusk
continued his argument for the de-
Tense. He argued that the note was
never mentioned by Samuel Murdoch,
according to the testimony of GAVIN
w. Murdoch, and characterized the
story of the note as preposterous, and
that such a magnificent gift as $780,
O00 had never been alluded to in twelve
years was extremely unreasonable He
said there was no use taking such
note to Ohio to get money on it, as
any bank in the Sacramento Valley
would have loaned any amount on it
it if was a genuine document; said
the plaintiff was afraid to put Meg
ginson, who figured so prominently in
the note transaction, on the stand, be-
cause he could have been prosecuted
for perjury had he become a witness.
Attorney Lusk said that the plaintiff
was compelled to deny everything in
order to make the fraud stick. He
said that c. S. Young had stated that
the plaintiff had told him that the note
was given for love and affection. and
that she feared a suit, and offered first
one-fourth, then one-third, finally one
lect it,
The plaintiff had told Young and
Megginson to go out and investigate
the validity of the note given for love
and affection" and that Young took
the note to William NJ. Stewart. c.
w. Cross and Carl A. C. Ellis. and
they said the consideration was not
good. After this the plaintiff inlme-
diately changed her story and has at
tempted to show a value for the con-
sideration.
Attorney Lusk finished his argument
at p. m.
General Barnes then asked for an
adjournment until 9 o'clock tomorrow
morning, when he will begin his argu-
ment. This was granted, it being an
dersteod that his address will consume
an entire day.

MAY LOSE HER EYESIGHT.
A Vitrio1 Thrower Herself Badly
Burned With the Acid.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 15.-Maggie
Magee, who claims to be the victim of
the wiles of Frederick Hotop, is lying
in the Receiving Hospital severely
burned by vitriOl, and Hotop is some
where in the city suffering from the
sting of the same acid.
The Magee woman boarded Hotop's
car to-day, and after a Mort converse
tion threw the acid at him, and in the
struggle which followed a great deal Of
it got on her own person, burning her
terribly about the eyes and face. She
will probably lose her sight
She claims that Hotop is the father
of her infant, and that he had promised
to marry her, but that he secured a Ii
cense to marry another woman.
Hotop was not seriously injured He
swore to a complaint against his as
sailant. Immediately afterwards he was
arrested on a warrant sworn out by the
woman in September, 1896, charging
him with betrayal under promise Of
marriage. The matter will now be set
tied in the Courts.

Resolutions Also Passed Relating
to the Trouble in the Occur

SALT LAKE, May 15.-At the meet
ing of the Western Federation of Min
ers to-day by unanimous vote it was
headquarters of the association for
the ensuing year, and the Pueblo
Courier" was named as the official or
gan for the coming year.
The following officers were elected
this afternoon: Edward Boyce, Presi-
dent; J. F. Mcdonald, Vice President;
James Maher, Secretary
The following were named as the
Executive Board: j. F. Feney, Butte,
Mont; Charles Foley, Rossland, B. c.;
VIM. Walsh, Butte, Mont; Charles
Mayer, Deadwood, S. D.; D. P. McGin-
ley, Altman, Col.
The following resolution was passed
this afternoon, referring to the Idaho
trouble:
Resolved, That the industrial condi-
tions are bad enough when it is neces-
sary for men who are willing to labor
to ask permission of those who have
means for employment to have the
privilege to work to maintain their
families, but when it becomes neces-
sary to also secure permission from
the military authorities before the right
to work is secured, we believe we have
arrived at condition of despotism
that augurs ill for the future welfare
of the people, and we denounce in the
strongest terms at our command such
assumption of power and dictation as
General Merriam and his co-workers
have arrogated to themselves
Resolved That we appeal to the or
ganized wage earners of the West to
stand firm in the present crisis.
Resolved, That we stigmatize the
order of General Merriam and the civil
authorities that men seeking employ
ment in the mines of this district
must renounce membership in the min
ers unions to be worthy only of a
despotic ruler, and not worthy of ro-
tice by citizens of America, and de-
clare that the Miners Union had moth
ing whatever to do with the destruc-
ton of the Bunker Hill mill, and will
defend their right of organization
Resolved, by the seventh annual con-
vention of the Western Federation of
Miners, That we pledge the full
strength, financial and moral aid of the
Western Federation of Miners of Amer
ion and every national and subordinate
labor organization on this continent, to
support maintain and defend our fell
low citizens and brother miners now
in prison and being Illegally and un-
justly coerced by the inquisition of ar
rogated military authority in violation
of the provisions of the Constitution of
these United States, which holds that
the civil law is supreme and above all
military assumption; therefore, be it
further
Resolved by this convention, That the
Executive Board of this federation is
hereby directed to employ the best le-
gal counsel to be had in the land to
defend our brother miners, now held
incarcerated in the military prison in
the Occur d'Alenes, and to test in our
civil courts the right of any military
despot to declare any local. union of
this federation to be an illegal and
criminal body

Broad forced the fighting at the
start, and for ten rounds did fully as
we'll as the champion, blocking the lat
ter's leads beautifully and coming back
fast and strong. Dixon's left ear was
cut in the fifth round, and bled freely
Breads left arm was badly hurt in the
eleventh round, and he could not use
1t to advantage thereafter
Dixon showed all his old-time clev-
erness, but not his usual speed. He
made the pace for the last half of the
distance, and the referee declared him
the winner, although the crowd insist
ed on having ii a draw. Dfxon's mar
gin was not a large one.

LONDON. May 15.-The Filipino
Junta. here has received the following
message from Aguinaldo, cabled from
Hongkong under date of May 18th:
1.-THE Filipino Government, in accord
ance with the general feeling OF the
country, has decided to continue the
war at all costs, until independence Is
secured.
1.-THE Filipinos theoretically refuse
the Americans peace overtures, based
on restricted autonomy coupled with
promises of subsequent self-govern-
ment.
''The Filipinos demand a strict full
fillment of the articles of the American
Constitution and treaties contracted
by the American representatives when
imploring a Filipino alliance in COM
batting the Spaniards.
"All the Filipino Generals support
Aguinaldo. General Luna's reported
overtures for peace are untrue. Our
army is near Manila, simultaneously
attacking the whole American line.
The heat and rains are causing
many casualties in the American army.
All the hospitals are crowded with sick
and wounded. Four hundred of the
Cincinnati regiment have been impris-
oned by General Otis for insubordina-
ton in refusing to fight. The regular
troops quartered in Manila and other
towns are quiet. The volunteers are
abused and always at the front with
scanty rations.
THE discomfort between the Ameri-
cans and Europeans is general
AMERICANS WILL GARRISON
ZAMBOANGA
WASHINGTON, May 15.-It is ex-
pected at the War Department that
General Otis will take steps at once
to replace the Spanish garrison at
Zamboanga with United States troops.
The place is one of strategic import
ance, being the capital of the island of
Mindanao. the second largest in the
group, and a good sea port. 1t was to
this point that the Spanish forces re-
treated from Hoilo when that town was
evacuated. The town is easily defen-
sible with a small artillery force. The
fact that the insurgents are in possess
sion of rapid fire guns makes the stu
alton at Zamboanga more serious but
it is not believed here that they have
large supply of ammunition neces-
sary to operate the weapons.
Through unofficial agents the Gov
eminent here has been quietly making
investigation into the state of affairs
in the insular group just south of the
Visayas Islands, with a view to deter
mining whether by good management
the inhabitants cannot be brought into
allegiance to the United States with
out instruction. The natives are in
general Mohammedans, and owe allie
glance to a Sultan whom the Span
iards have never been able to bring into
more than nominal submission He
maintains harem and lives in state,
and it is probable that an annuity will
have to be provided for him out of the
revenues of the islands after the United
States takes possession
