Fatal. SHOOTING.
Joe rlontague Shot and Killed
by Frank Gardner.

by Frank Gardner.
! About $50 Monday evening. OF
the sidewalk and near the stairway
that leads to Odd Fellows hall, OPP
posite Hungerford's opera house
Frank Gardner shot and almost in
stantiy killed Jos. M. Montague.
It appears that ill-feeling of long
standing existed between the two
men, caused by Gardner at one time
protecting Mrs. Montague from as
sault by her husband. Montague
at that time was considerably in
jured by Gardner and hence had no
particular love for the protector of
bis wife, and often expressed his
hatred for Gardner, particularly
when under the influence of liquor.
Recently. it appears, Montague
had warned Gardner to keep away
from his dwelling house, and this
fact seemed to have precipitated the
shooting.
Frank Megill, the only important
witness before the coroner's jury,
stated that as he was about to en-
ter the Star lodging house he heard
angry words being used by two men
standing in front of the Fletcher
Co. store. He could not hear dis
tinctly all that was said, but he did
hear the words, II told you to keep
away" and why did you stop me-"
and also the word 'liar." Montague
then walked around the corner, fol-
lowed by Gardner. who drew his
pistol before disappearing from the
view of Megill. Soon thereafter five
shots in quick succession were
heard, and before Montague could
reach the rear end of the building
he fell, having been shot once
through the head--the ball entering
the back and coming out just above
the forehead-and twice through
the body. Montague was uncon-
scious when approached and died
soon thereafter.
Gardner hurridly went to the
Jail and surrendered himself to
Under Sheriff J. A. Nicholson, de.
livering his empty pistol to that
officer, saying II believe / have
killed Joe Montague, because he
threatened to kill me-"
Coroner B. B. Swan summoned
a jury composed of the following
gentlemen: H. B. Thompson, W. H.
Nolan, Lum Holiday, John Brady,
Ed Murphy, James Loveland, W.
S. Galloway, Cal. Epperson and E
o. Cotton. An inquest was held
Tuesday forenoon, and after the ex-
animation of two witnesses the fury
rendered verdict to the effect that
Joseph M. Montague came to his
death by pistol shots fired unlaw-
fully, wilfully and with malice
aforethought, in the hands of Frank
Gardner.
Owing to the illness of County
Attorney Sinnott no date has yet
been set for the preliminary trial
of Gardner.
Tuesday morning Mrs Montague
went to the Jail, pistol in hand, with
he avowed determination of killing
Gardner, but the sheriff's Office was
forewarned by telephone of her COM
ing, and she was soon disarmed and
sent back to her home.
Friends of Montague contributed
toward his burial and the funeral
took place at 3 o'clock yesterday
afternoon, from the residence of the
deceased, the services at the house
being conducted by Judge Sinnott
and those at the grave by Rev. Mr..
Mason.

OUT FOR RECIPROCITY

would mean the passage OF the House
bill just as 1t stands, including, Of
course. the amendments added by the
hect sugar men at the last moment for
the purpose of defeating the measure,
and which. they subsequently learned,
would have the effect of wiping out tho
countervailing duties imposed by thu
Dilsley act against the bounty fed sug-
ers Of Europe.
Mr.. Oxnard thereupon moved away
with a serious and thoughtful air.
Almost every one Of the majority Sem
ators took occasion during the morning
to say pleasant word to Senators
Dietrich and Millard OF Nebraska on the
subject OF the regulations adopted
Wednesday by their Republican State
convention, warmly indorsing President
Roo5cvelt's reciprocity policy as OUT
lined In his message to Congress.
Mr.. Dietrich was not nearly so 10

congratulations.
Nebraska Senators Embarrassed.
The Nebraska Senator's were some-
what embarrassed also because they
knew their colleagues had been made
aware of the fact that the Nebraska
convention had asked their Senators for
an expression OF opinion on the Cuban
question, and on receiving it had placed
1t in a pigecnhole and adopted the reso-
luton in direct opposition to their
views.

which the Republican majority is work.

Senator Frye. president pro TEN Of the
body, who did not attend the caucus
wrote a letter stating his well-known
opinion that he regards it as bad policy
to attempt to carry out the policy OF the
Republican party in this question.
There are seven or eight other Sena-
tors who, while ostensibly standing BY
the majority, hold the view that Mr..
Frye does, and the indirect effect OF
their attitude is very great.

nothing was said about a treaty.
1t is we'll known that Senator Elkins
and ether beet sugar Senators are favor
able to the treaty proposition. Indeed.
1t originated with the beet sugar men.
The Republican leaders in the Senate
arc confident. therefore. that treaty
could be ratified. but the question is
should the question be brought for

There is authority for the statement
that more than half CT the thirty-four
Democratic Senator's would vote to ratify

States and Cuba IL submitted at special
session in November or at the regular
session in December, but OF course they
would not do so now. That would be
bad politics.

If IL were not for the fact that an
election is impending the Republican
Senators would advis. the negotiation

KITCHENER WELCOMES
B0ERS TO THE EMPIRE
British General Also Praises Fighting
Men OF Johannesburg at a
Farewell Banquet.

JOHANNESBURG. June 19.-General
Kitchener delivered a farewell speech az
a banquet here tonight that was attend
cd by rec citizens. Lord Miner was
present as the civic head of the new
state. General Kitchener. replying to II
toast describing him as the man who had
won their freedom. said the army hal
done its best to 60 its duty.
He praised johannesburg for the part
its men had played in the war The
regulars, both officers and men, ad-
mircd the johannesburg corps. which
had stood stanch in danger and held
what they had gained. They had 'tast-
ed the salt OF life" and its SAVIOR would
never leave them.
They should keep their horses and
rifles ready and their bodies physically
fit, but should settle down and work for
the Empire Their opponents had shown
the abilities and tenacity of purpose of a
virile race, and they should be welcomed
into the Empire. They would consti
tute an asset Of considerable import
ance.
The chief lesson of the war was the
knowledge that all Britons fought shout
der TO shoulder. Those who had helped
them knew they in South Africa and
elsewhere would help their countrymen
when needed.
The speech was Enthusiastically re-
ceived. Earlier in the day the Imperial
Light Horse, which was a Ladysmith
ard was prominent throughout the war.
and other johannesburg corps were re-
ceived by Lord Kitchener.

troops required by law as safeguard
against future contingencies.
The minimum at which the regular
army Is required to be maintained, by
act Of February ., 1901, is 59.657 men,
and the maximum IS 1000 We have
now less than 10000 in excess of the
minimum number. The cost of that e1-
cess only is properly to be treated as
occasioned by operations in the Philip
pines.
Expenses at Present Reduced.
THE present scale of expense is. Of
course. greatly reduced from that shown
in the foregoing statement, because Of
the continuous reduction of the army,
made possible by the restoration OF
peaceful conditions. Thus in the middle
OF the fiscal year ending June 30, 1901
there were about 10000 American SOL
dicrs in the islands. The number is now
reduced TO about 23,c00.
Orders have now been issued for the
return OF the Eighth. Fifteenth. Twen-
ty-fourth, and Twenty-fifth Infantry
and squadron of the Tenth Cavalry
and when these orders have been exc
cutc6 the number OF troops in the Phil
ippines will have been reduced to Is, ,000
For the past six months we have been
&bringing troops home, S arapidly as we
could do so economically by the use of
our own transports.
Quarantine requirements have caused
some delay in the movement . trans
ports, but we are bringing the men
home more rapidly than we can provide
accommodations for them, until appro-
priaticns contained in the pending ap-
preparation bill for the support of the
army become available"
