sudden Death Of James Patterson.

| City Treasurer James Patterson, al
old and very highly respected citizen o
Aberdeen, died suddenly at his residence
in this city Monday evening at 8 O'Clock
Mr.. Patterson was afflicted with partial
paralysis, having had two strokes within
the past few years, and received the
third and fatal one Monday afternoon
while walking home with his nephew,
Robert Patterson, and never gained con-
seriousness until he passed away at 8
o'clock.
Mr.. Patterson was born at Knowlton,
Quebec, May ~, 1888, and came to the
United states at an early age. He lived
few years in Pennsylvania, and moved
to Minneapolis, where he spent most Of
his life. lie married early in life, but
only enjoyed brief welded bliss, his wife
dying within two years of their marriage.
At the commencement of the war he
entered the Union army and served to
the close, receiving an honorable dis
charge.
In 1888 Mr.. Patterson came from Min
neapolis to Aberdeen, where he has ever
since been closely identified with the
interests OF the city, and where his
genial manner and sterling integrity
made him friends with all whom he
came in contact with, and it is safe to
say that when he passed away he did
not leave All enemy behind him, and his
death is mourned by all who had the
pleasure OF his acquaintance. lie leaves
two brothers in the east and two nephews
and two neices in this city to mourn his
sudden death. One OF his nephews is
W. J. Patterson, the well known business
man of Aberdeen.
Funeral services will be he'd at the
Episcopal church this afternoon at 3 30
O'Clock, and the remains will be taken
to Minneapolis for burial, and will be
accompanied by his nephew, Robt.
Patterson.

RE-. Gilbert, who was arrested in this
city by Marshal Pearson last September
for passing raised bank bill, was SEN
fenced to seven years in the United
States penitentiary at McNeils Island by
Judge Hanford, in the federal court at
Seattle last Thursday.
Gilbert, who is evidently an old crook,
plead guilty to the charge, and had moth
ing to say, when given a chance by the
court to object to the sentence. No wit
nesses were called from Aberdeen, as the
district attorney knew that plea OF
guilty would be entered.
The arrest of Gilbert was the result OF
some clever work by Marshal Pearson,
and its importance is recognized by the
United states marshal, who has recon-
mended to the secret service department
that a reward be paid Pearson, out of q
fund kept by that department for such
services. As the recommendation was
made without the knowledge of Marsha
Pearson, it is q neat testimonial to {
faithful! officer, whether the reward b.
granted or not.

before she came in, but, no tug being in
sight, she stood off. When the storm
came on she was driven before the wind
and was unable to make the harbor
again until Saturday, when she sailed in
over the bar, and had an experience the
captain does not wish to repeat. Seeing
two other vessels sailing in, the Johnson
followed. The tide was ebbing, and
when she got on the bar the wind died
down, leaving her in the trough Of the
sea for half an hour, where she tossed
about at great risk until the wind came
up again, and enabled her to come in.

PINGREE'S ATTITUDE.
Michignn's Governor Gives a strong
Intimntion of His Political
Tendencies.

Detroit, Mich, April 3o.-Gov. Pin
gree asserted, in an interview Sunday,
that the hope of the people in this
years general elections is in the dem
ocratic party. The governor has al
ways hitherto been an independent re-
publican. Speaking of the increasing
power of trusts Gov. Pingree said:
There is no use in hoping that the
republican party will do anything
with them"
Are you preparing to announce
your Withdrawal from the republican
party?" the governor was asked.
There is no announcement about
it. only say what have said all the
while. You haven't heard me say any
thing against the democrats for some
time. | believe that the hope of the
people rs in the democratic party this
fall"

PRACTICALLY AN ULTIMATUM.
Great Impression-NOt Ready
To Pay, However.

Constantinople, April 2s.-The Amer
lean note handed TO the Turkish min
lister of foreign affairs, Tewfik Pasha,
On Tuesday, is couched in peremptory
terms, demanding immediate payment
for the indemnity several times prom
Used to Minister Straus by the sultan.
The note does not fix time limit for
an answer, but its tenor is not far
from the character of an ultimatum.
1t has produced n great impression
upon the porte, which. however, shows
no disposition to modify the attitude
hitherto maintained, namely, repudiat-
ing the responsibility and seeking to
diminish the Importance of the mat
ter. 1t is presumed that the porte's
reply will be in this sense; and hence,
it is feared the United States govern
ment will be obliged to take steps to
enforce it's demands.

RETURNS TO KENTUCKY.
Gov. Taylor Reaches Frankfort-No
Warrant for His Arrest Has
Yet been Served.

Frankfort, KY, April 3o.-Gov. W. S.
Taylor has returned here from Wash
ington and spent Sunday at the execu-
tive mansion with his family. He stated
that he returned 10 silence the ru-
mors that he was endeavoring to es-
cape indictment. After attending to
the matter of ascertaining whether
there is any indictment against him
he will return to Washington. The
presence of Gov. Taylor was known TO
the local officers and to those in charge
of the prosecution, and the fact that
warrant of arrest was not served upon
him is now construed to mean that
the indictment in this case will be held
up and no process issued on it for sew
eral days. The indictment was re-
turned in open court after those against
Finley, Powers. Culton and others were
returned, but il was not entered as of
record, and is now understood to be in
the possession Of Judge Cantrill.

WORK OF FLAMES.
MILLIONS of Dollars Worth Of Prep
erty Destroyed I'm a Connagra-
ton In Canada.

Ottawa, Ont, April 20. = Over five
square miles of territory burned over;
more than 1000 buildings destroyed;
IL lives lost; 1000 men, women and
children homeless, and property loss
of $17,000,O00, according to the latest
estimate, insured for about half its
value are the results of the destruc-
tive fire which swept this city and Hull
Thursday and Friday. Although un-
ner control for many hours. the flames
were not entirely extinguished until
about noon Friday.
The neighboring villages of Hinton
burg, Mechanicsville, Eddyville and
Breakdown have also been the victims
OF the terrible visitation.
The dead are:
Miss Minnie Cook, aged 40 years, Gre
mated In her own house; John Pumple, car
repairer. 646 Somerset suffocatcd in Ca

Peeley, shoemaker. 124 Queen street. West.

dead In Meyers house, Wellington street.
Hull: Mrs. Carron, Wellington street. Hull
died from fright aged so years; A. Baudin.
eight years old, son OF Charles Baudin,
Duke street, Hull.
A relief committee has been formed
by the citizens, and this, together with
the Catholic archbishops of Ottawa
and Montreal, will make an appeal for
relief to the country. The most Sc
rious problem that confronts Hull is
that of work. The majority of house
holders who were burned out are poor
and have large families. 1t is not ex-
pected there will be employment for a
considerable period, and the way in
which many of the poor are going to
live in the meantime is doubtful. On
the Ottawa side fully two-thirds of Dali
housie ward Is devastated. and an esti-
mate by residents of the district places
the number who were without roofs
of their own in this district at 5000.
The fire area was viewed by hundreds
of people Friday afternoon and even
ing. One of the most remarkable things
about the sad scene was that no smoke
was to be seen. There were no half
burned buildings - smoldering logs
anywhere. Everything that the fire
touched was burned to ashes. All of
Hull's principal buildings, with the ex-
ception of the Catholic church, are
things of the past. The buildings and
land in the place are valued at $2,7oo,-
900. and of this amount over 81, O00, 900
may be put down as loss. Then in
stocks, fixtures. household effects and
wearing apparel there is loss Of
nearly s3.00O,0OO. The vast piles of
lumber which went up in smoke may be
reckoned at SO 900 900 more.

HAS TWO SIDES.
Trade situation shows Varying Con-
ditions. But La, on the Whole,
Very Favorable.

New York, April 2S-Bradstreet's says:
evidences of the fact that there are now
two sides to the general trade situation,
where for year past there was but one,
come to sight each week. Different sec
tions of the country and lines of business
return differing reports. but that the situa-
ton as a whole is favorable one and suf-
fers merely by commiseration with the
enormous and almost feverish activity of
some time ago is also evident. Excluding
the great speculative centers the aggre-
gate of business is Undoubtedly larger than
a year ago and the business done even In
several industries reporting reduced ac-
tivity would seem very large even to those
bearishly inclined had II not been for the
enormous aggregate done some short time
ago. Crop prospects, except in the wheat
area OF the central west and in some flood
ed sections OF the south, remain all that
might be wished for. Retail demand is i'm
proving and nothing of definitely depress-
ing character has yet developed
In the abrupt readjustment of steel and
wire prices the iron and steel industries
received a notable shock, but has stood the
ordeal very we'll confirming earlier advices
OF the substantial and nonspeculative basis
for the immense activity and greatly ad-
vanced prices of the past year.

generally one of sustained strength. Some
slight shading in wheat prices is largely

Constantinople, April 3o.-The porte
has not yet replied to the note handed
to Tewfik Pasha, the Turkish foreign
minister, by the United States charge
d'affaires, Mr.. Lloyd Griscom, regard
ing the indemnity claim, and the stu
alton is unchanged. 1t is believed in
some quarters that a settlement will
yet be made by means of some arrange
ment with private American contract
ors, concealing the actual payment, and
thus relieving the Ottoman govern
ment from admitting responsibility
for the losses oecasioned at the time
OF the massacres.
Constantinople, Friday, April 27.-
The United States legation has not yet
received the porte's answer to the note
handed to Tewfik Pasha, the Turkish
foreign minister, by the American
charge d'afraires regarding the in
demnity claims; and the impression is
gaining ground that the reply will be
in the negative. or even that no reply
will be made. The latter alternative,
however, seems to be unlikely. The
general opinion is that without a dis
play of force the porte certainly VIII
not pay the claims, because il wishes
