AN ASSURED THING.
Montana Volunteers will BE Entertained
Ia. Ga at Oakland.

Montana Volunteers Will Be Entertained
Id. 4a at Oakland.
Special Dispatch to the Standard.
San Francisco, Sept. 30, Oakland,
Cal, Sept. 30.-The reception to the
Montana soldiers is now an assured
thing, and those who have been long
ing to honor the returning heroes will
very soon be given that opportunity.
Captain Mitchell, who was chairman
of the Fourth of July committee which
had charge of arrangements for the
sham battle in which the Montana men
took part, has called meeting OF that
committee for next Monday evening.
At that meeting, which is to be held
in the board of trade rooms, the COM
mittee will undertake to decide ways
and means for properly entertaining
the men who gave Oakland such a
unique Fourth of July celebration. 1t
Is not anticipated there Will be any
difficulty in raising sufficient funds to
defray the expenses OF the entertain
ment, as number of people have al
ready volunteered to assist the COM
mittee in every possible way.
It has not been decided as yet just
what form the celebration will take,
though it seems to be the general opin-
ion that there should be parade, soma
speech-making and a dinner.
The Montana men were communicate
ed with to-day and expressed them
selves as highly pleased with the pros
pect of again coming to Oakland. They
also said that they had by no means
forgotten the manner in,swhich they
were treated when there, and said that
during the II months they were on
the firing line in the Philippines that
the day they spent so pleasantly in
this city was often referred to-
The date on which the Montana men
will be invited to again come to Oak
land will probably be agreed upon at
the meeting Monday evening
1t has been suggested TO the commits
tee that Saturday, Oct. Z, be set as the
time for having the soldiers visit the
city. The advantage claimed in set
ting the celebration for Saturday is
that it will give all the school children
an opportunity to see the gallant Mon
tana boys. 1t is expected that Compa-
MES A and F. 5th regiment. and the
veteran guard, the crack marching
company of the Grand Armyswili be
invited to turn out and parade with
the Montana regiment. lew

MURDERER AND ROBBER.
Wife Accuses Her Cruel Husband Of
Serious Crimes.

PHILADELPHIA, June 6.-The arrest of
Samuel Mckinney to-day on charges of
cruelty to his wife has led to statements
from the wife that Mckinney is a murderer
and robber. Mrs. Mckinney told the police
that In 1874, while they were living in New
York, her husband planned to rob a coun-
try house on the Hudson near Irvington.
In trying to get away with the booty he
was surprised and killed the owner of the
house. He continued his career as
burglar, she said, and was quite successful.
But his biggest haul was made in New York
three and a half years ago, when $4,000 in
negotiable securities and cash were taken
from the residence of John Wendell, at 442
Fifth avenue. New York. After discreet
interval, Mrs. Mckinney declared, some of
the bonds were disposed of and the pair
went to Ireland, their old home. A farm
was purchased in County Antrim and they
lived there until early last summer when
they returned to the United States and
came to Philadelphia.
Mckinney was committed in default of
bail on the charge of assault and acting up
on the woman's story detectives were sent
to search the house where the couple lived.
eral United States bonds and railroad bonds,
all negotiable, and under pile of clothing
in the house 81, 80 in cash was found and
letters addressed to John G. Wendell. Mrs.
Mckinney says her husband has often
threatened to Kill her and she fears that if
he should now be released from prison he
would carry his threat into execution.
