In 1889 one of the most sensations.
events of a remarkably active and Wig
orous career, largely passed in a new
country i'm process of development
from IA pioneer state TO a highly civil
lied community, brought his person
atty wildly before the public. Sarah
Althea Hill Terry had brought o
famous suit against ex-senator
Sharon, a California multimillionaire
Justice Field was on the bench. The
outcome of the ease was unfayorable
TO the plaintiff, and engendered in hei
feelings of hatred of the jurist. This
eliminated in her attempt 10 chastlse
the aged justice in the dining hall OF o
depot eating house at Tathrop, Cal.
railway station. Judge Terry, who had
been her attorney in the suit against
Sharon, and who afterwards married
her, interfe.ed and it seemed hat he
was trying TO do violence TO Justice
Fields person. David Maggie, a United
States deputy marshal, drew a revolver
and shot and killed Judge Terry. Ma.
gle was acquitted. There was, how
ever, for many years intense bitter
ness between the friends of the two
factions. and for this reason Justice
Fields family discouraged his discus
sion Of California topics or the perusaI
Of California newspapers.

Ridge agency, the Sioux who is ac.
cused of numbering his divorced wife,

of a total OF twenty-eight subpoenacd
for the prosecution. The case is at

Four Persons Drowned and Eight
Missing at Giendive, Mont.
Glendive, Mont, April 11.-An ice
gorge i'm the Yellowstone river at this
point caused hat stream to overflow
Saturday night, drowning four per.
sons. Eight more are missing. Three
spans of the bridge are washed out,
causing a loss of $4,000; the Northern
Pacific tracks are inundated and posi-
bly, washed away for some distance,
and the loss to live stock by drowning
will involve a large sum. The dead per-
sons are:
MRS. r.. w. SNYDER, wife of a
ranchman.
MISS NELLIE REAGAN, her niece.
MISS ROSE WYBECHT, a visitor to
the Snyder ranch.
EUGENE f. O'CONNOR.
The missing:
James Sullivan, wife and six chill
drcn.
The ice began moving at 1880 in the
evening and continued flowing until
900, when il formed n gorge. The
Snyder party, noticing the back water,
started for the Northern Pacific
tracks, hoping thus TO escape drown
ing, but before they covered half the
distance the water was waist deep and
they took refuge in IA tree. O'Connor
was the first TO be washed from the
tree. Mrs. Snyder the second and Miss
Wybecht third. 4 huge piece Of ice
struck the tree and broke il in two,
carrying off Miss Reagan. 1t is thought
that the family of James Sullivan, wife
and six children, were swept away 10y
the overflow, as no trace Of them can
he found.

u Movement on the Interior,

Manila, April 1.-THE expedition oil
1900 men under Major General henry
w. Lawton, which started SATURDAY
night with the intention OF crossing
Laguna de Bay, capturing the town OF
Santa Cruz, on the eastern shore OF the
lake, and then sweeping the country
TO the south, consists Of 200 picked
sharpshooters, chosen from the vari-
Gus regiments. H~awthorne's noun
tain battery, Gales squadron, three
troops of the Fourth cavalry, I'M
mounted, with Brownies n Tap
pans battalion of the Thirteenth in
fantry. Links battalion of the FIRST
Idaho infantry and FRAMES battalion
of the First North Dakota infantry,
under General King. The fotilla OF
twenty canoes towed by tugs II con-
vowed by the gunboats Laguna de Bay,
este and Raidan, and preceded by the
launch containing General Lawton
and General King, started from san
Pedro Macati, upon the river Paslg'
moving toward the lake just as evening
was setting in. 1t was truly, a pc
lultSHut SNNhI'
The men were all in high spirits, ana
carried rations for ten days, with the
lightcst marching equipment.
General Lawton's plan was to reach
Santa Cruz in the morning at day
break to capture or destroy any rebel
gunboats or shipping, TO take the town
and then TO scour the country to the
south of the lake, a distance not yet
explored by the Americans. The tao
ties will be those of the old time from
tier fighting, and it is probable that
the command will be divided into
squads of ten. During General Law
TONS absence the Second battalion is
commanded temporarily by Genera
Ovenshine, whose lines extend from the
beach from near Malate south OF Ma
nilato. the shore of Laguna bay, be-
yond Pasig. II distance of about seven
miles.
The withdrawal Of the eighteen con
panies constituting the eXpeditionary
force made a gap in the line from the
beach to CoIiculi, just south of Sar
Pedro Macati, which was subsequently
filled by the Fourth regular infancy.
The rebels on the extreme right hao
evidently been informed of the with
drawal Of the troops and they attempt
ed to sneak through after nightfall
but they met with q warm reception
and fell back in disorder on discover
ing that the line was still intact.
