the shoulder. and another wound in the
head He says he was held up Monday
night in the Otoe reservation and was
shot with load of buckshot by two
men. who robed him, taking his coat and
horse.
IL Is the general opinion here that John
son is the robber who was dressed in
women's clothes at the killing at Red
Rock, and received the wounds from Al
vim Bateman, the bookkeeper who was
killed in the raid.
The Perry militia has been called out
to guard the Jail, as it is feared that an
attempt will be made to lynch the pris-
oner by enraged citizens of Red Rock
who may come here on learning OF the
capture. After the Red Rock murder the
sheriff traced the bandits to the home of
a man named Cunningham: near Pawnee
and the house was surrounded. a de-
mand was made for the surrender of the
men. and for reply VOIley of bullets was
fired into the posse. Deputy Sheriff

Kansas Penitentiary.
IN CLOSE CONFINEMENT
TWO OF THE PRISONERS WE'RE
SHOT By. GUARDS.

Leavenworth, Kan, March 2O.--At ?
o'clock this morning the last of the
2S4 mutinOus convict miners was taken
from the penitentiary pit at Lansing
and placed behind prison bars 1t was
learned today that two of the convicts
had been shot and wounded slightly by
the first cagefuI of guards that de-
scended into the pit last night to res
cue the fifteen guards held as hostages
when the cage reached the bottom
or the pit, a, number of the convicts at
tempted to make a stand. and a vOliey
from the reScuerS was fired above their
headS TO frighten them.s-.One man was
shot IN the arm, and another received
a bullet in the leg. This cowed the
otherS. and they surrendered without
further trouble. The guards were first
sent to the top, the convicts following
as quickly as they could be rounded
up.
Many of the convicts had hidden in
the different tunnels, and il was after
midnight before all were found. The
convictS had gone for tWenty-fOur
hours practically without food, and
were glad to reach the top. At the pen
itentiary each man was given but a
cup of coffee and a few slices of bread.
This served as the beginning of their
punishment. Today Warden Tomlinson
says he Will punish the ringleaders Sc
verely, and all will be kept in confine-
ment for a while. The two men shot
by the guards were not badly hurt
None of the fifteen guards held under
ground are any the worse for their eX-
perience.
- The wounded men are Ralph Clark,
under a twenty-year sentence for
highway robbery. who win have to
sufferthe amputation of an arm, and
Alfred Hatfield, serving ten years for
manslaughter. Hatfield received a flesh

Gibraltar, March 20.-The steamer
Oph1r, with the Duke and Duchess of
CORNWALL and York on board, entered
the harbOr about o'clock. All the
SHIPS IN port had previously been

with guards of honor and bands. and

ing OF royal salute and the strains
or the national anthem. The Ophir en-
tered inside the mole, and shortly after
ward the governor and the adrniraIs
ofhclaily visited the ship. The duke
and duchess, with their suites, Will
land at noon. Decorations at the
landing stage and along the streets are
/ universal and large crowds have gath
cred.
The Ophir reports a fair passage. All
, on board are in good health. While
crossing the Bay of Biscay seas in
vaded the saloon cabins.
The royal party landed at the dock
yard at noon. They were received by
General Sir George White, the COVER
nor The duke and duchess then drove
70 the chamber of commerce, where
! they were presented with an address
OF welcome. The duke replied that he
was deeply grateful for the kindly wei
come extended by the ancient and
royal city, at which he had first landed
twenty-five years ago. He was glad
TO revisit a place of so many happy
"reminiscences. and which upon several
occasions had enthusiastically wei
coined his father, and with which the
memory Of his illustrious ancestor, the
Duke of Kent, was especially associ-
ated.
I'VE regard said the duke. this
hearty greeting at our first place of

great mission with which we have been
entrusted by my father, the king, in
fulhllment of the wishes of our late
beloved sovereign, whose loss the

STRIKERS ARE RIOTOUS.

MafSellIes, France. March 20.-"The
situation here is very disquieting, owing
to the increasingly aggressive attitude
of the strikers. During the disorders

people, and stores, restaurants and
! cafes were hurriedly closed. 1t was
| feared that the moR which was
charged by mounted gendarmes and
! husSars, would attempt to pillage.
a crowd Of 1000 burst through a cor
don OF infantry along the dock side
me cavalry charged and drove the
strikers back. volley of stones was
then thrown in all directions. and a
brlgadier, two gendarmes, hussar and
several infantrymen were injured. One
gendarme was stunned, thrown from
ms horse and trampIed upon by the
cavalry. He was removed to the hos
pltai, where he lies in a critical condf-
ton. The soldiers were greatly exas-
perated, but their officers succeeded in
controlling them.
The strikers are irritated At the re-
tuSaI OF the premier. NJ. Waldeck-
rousseau, to receive the socialist mayor
of Marseilles, NJ. F'lassieres. who sought
10 OBTAIN government pressure to force
the masters to negotiate. the masters
having declined to do so, on the ground
that the strike was unjustifiable and
a breach of a previous agreement.
NJ Flassieres threatens that the so
suit from the government, and he
points out that he stood aloof from
the prO-Kruger demonstration at a mo-
ment when. as he puts it. by entering
Mr. kruger'S carriage he might have
won popular triumph.
Two hundred women, several with
babes in arms, took part in today's
demonstration, in spite of the rain.
With the exception of the socialist or
Sans, the press shows little sympathy
with the strikers. The public generally
recognizes that the strike has already
done an immense amount of injury, and
may completely ruin the port.
The government is in an extremely
embarrassing position, especially NJ.
Millerand. the minister of commerce,
as the socialists demand that the gov
ernn.ent should intervene in favor of
the strikers, and are disgruntled at the
employment Of troops. On the other
hand. the government is urged to take
vicious measure to secure the freedom
of labor, especially in view of the fact
that the foreign element, chiefly Italian,
which preponderates among the strik-
ing dock laborers, is utterly Indifferent
to the fate of MarSeilleS.

eral Of Posts COtterman of the Philip

months great many complaints have
been received at Manila, indicating pill
fering from the mails. Most of the
mail dispatched from the Philippines,
as we'll as that received, originates at
army posts. where there is no regular

betwe en- the army post and the nearest

The report goes into detail regarding
the necessity for imprints on the wax

the director general in a report received
yesterday. Mr.. COtterman requests Il
supply OF $50 hand presses. with q die
on each bearing a distinctive number.
He adds
Many sacks OF mail are carried on

applications for chaplaincies in the
army have already been filed with the
president, according to ii World special
from Washington, which says:
The army reorganization bill pro-
vided for tweI1ty-three additional chap
laiEs. The pay and rank were fixed at
that given a captain of infantry, to-
gether with the usual extras and al
lOwances of about ZOO a year. While
the position of post chaplain was aboI-
fshed. each regiment OF cavalry and
infantry is to have a spiritual adviser,
and the artillery corps is to have
twelve.
Nearly every denomination is repre-
scented in the list of applicants. Two
dozen negro clergymen are among the
number. The Roman Catholics are
making especial efforts to secure addi-
tional recognition. as but four of the
army chaplainS are now of that Faith.
The MethOdists hold the record, having
eleven chaplains now. Mr.. Mckinley
