The City Fathers Held an
 Interesting Session.
ARCHER DlSGUSTED
Doesn't Like tho Councils. Execu. tive SesSiOnS-A Police InveStiga. ton Ordered for This Evening" Team of Horses Purchased.

The meeting of the city council Men. day evening was characterized by upper cuts, short-arm jabs and cross cuts.' Trouble seemed 10 be brewing early in the evening, and it started popping when the increase in the city attorneys salary came up for discus sion. The ordinance to le passed al- lowed the attorney S225 per month dur ing the coming year. Jourden said the city couldn't afford such high salary for year, but was willing to allow that figure for the summer months only. Archer came back by saying that, as attorneys in general were high with their fees, S225 per month was very reasonable. Then came cross cut by Jourden, but Archer stood pat, and in the vote the ordinance as lead was adopted.
 Poundmaster Smiths grievance was taken up with every punch on the cal endar in full swing. Smith cla,med damages to the extent of S10. and the council in executive Session had decid- ed to allow him but $50. Jourden moved that Smith be allowed the full amount, and the motion was evidently contrary to the agreement reached in executive session. The motion received no second, and Archer proceeded 10 roast the members and their executive sessions. He said that he, for one, was disgusted with their sO-called execu- tive sessions-''d-nd disgusted."
 In this rotind Jourden and Archer exchanged cOurtesies, which became very personal. Jourden accused Archer of practicing economy when there was nothing in it for him, but when some personal gain was at stake economy was lost in the'shuffie. Archer retOrt. a hy moving Jourden out of orler and doclSriug Jourden s statements entirely false and unfOunded.
 Whom the police committee had no report to make Archer wanted to know what was being done in the matter of inyestieasing the Gaffney trouble in Ihe police department. lie wanted the holfco committee to investigate the s1sir thoroughly. Jourden said there

GOES TO JAIL FOR DEBT
LIFE IMPRISONMENT MAY BE FATE
OF A BANKRUPT.

LOUISVILLE, KY, March 19.-Life i'm
prisonment for Gebt is in prospect for
w. T. Nugent, a member of the bankrupt
dry goods firm of E. H. Nugent & COM
pany unless he can produce $4,000 which
he and his friends say is not in his pos
session.
When the house, which was one of the
Oldest in the city, failed two years ago, it
was charged that before the assignment
was made, w. T. Nugent, son of the pro-
prietor, had disposed of large part of
the stock to other houses for $14 400 This
money did not figure in the assignment
but NGgent asserted that it had been
spent in payment of his fathers debt
He, however, produced no receipts.
AT the instance of creditors the son
was tried in the federal court. Judge
Evans ruled that he must pay over the
money or go to Jail for contempt of court
until he did. Attorneys for Nugent got
him out on $4,000 bends pending an APP
peal. The circuit court of appeals re-
versed Judge Evans decision, but the
supreme court of the United States sus-
tained him. Nrgent then made plea for
a new hearing, which is now denied.
The Argument for the defendant was
that to put him in Jail meant virtually

PRINCE WAS IN FEAR
UNCERTAINTY ABOUT POLES KEPT
HIM FROM STOCKYARDS.

KEEL, Prussia, March 19.-The German
battleship, Kaiser Wilhelm II, having on
board Emperor William and Admiral
Prince Henry of Prussia arrived here
at $3.50 p. m. p His majestSf and the
prince were welcomed with the firing of
salutes.
Prince Henry does not know why he
did not visit the stock yards at Chicago,
except that he was advised by Mr.. Will
kie that it would be better to omit tbs
part of the programme, as the Polish
workmen at the stockyards might create
a disturbance.
Emperor William received a wireless
telegraph message at 4 o'clock yesterday
afternoon at CuXhaven, from which it
seemed the Deutschland was ninety miles
away, while as matter of fact she was
only twenty miles distant. The emperor
and his staff then sat down to dine be-
heving they had sufficient time before
the arrival of the steamer. About halt
way through the menu the news was
brought that the Deutschland was
sighted. Emperor William then stopped
the dinner and hurried to the quay. Here
he had a long wait until the steamer
dOcked.

Two Sheepherders Known to Have
Perished Near Medina in Vain

DrOVes.
Special to The Globe.


JAMESTOWN, N. D., March 19.-From
Medina comes news that Dan McLaugh-
lin, well known in jamestown, where he
resided for many years, was a victim
OF the recent storm. A young man nam
ed Stewart is also missing Mclaughlin
and Stewart lived in a small ranch build
ing twenty-five miles northwest of Me-
dina, where they took care of /. 500 sheen
Neighbors entered the cabin and found
it empty Monday. Indications were that
men had been reading in their
shack Monday night and had left it to
look after the sheep. The lamp on table
was burned out and novel was turned
as though laid down with intentions of
taking it up again in short time.
A calendar-With the record of the
weather up to Friday-was kept daily for
several months. A dog and lantern are
also missing, and there is no doubt that
the men perished.
Stewart was a son of the owner of the
sheep. Stock losses in the vicinity of
Medina were heavy
Cattle broke away and drifted in front
of the heavy storm into the lake. A re-
port from Steele says that four Russians
were frozen to death in their cabin.

Worlingme Judges Say, Must Have

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, March 19.-
In the supreme court. sitting en- blanc
today, an opinion was handed down de-
claring that courts of equity have no
power to enjoin labor organizations from
enforcing boycotts on corporations.
The pinion rendered by Judge Sher-
wood affirmed the judgment of a lower
court which had refused the application
of the Marx & Hass Jeans Clothing COM

restrain Anthony Watson and other off

Chief Justice Burgess and judges. .R-aca
CAN'T and Marshall concurred in the
opinion, and Judge Robinson dissented
Judge Valiant, who heard the case
originally when on the circuit bench, took
no part in hearing the appeal.
The supreme court holds that if the
labor unions of the state are not per-
mitted to tell the story of their wrongs,
or their supposed wrongs, by word Of
mouth or with pen and print, and to en-
deavor to get other persons to aid them
by all peaceable means in securing re-
dress of such wrongs, free speech is en-

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 19-
Members Of the Minnesota delegation who
have been following the plume of Leader
Tawney were wondering today why Nc
Cleary was not present at the Republ-
can conference last night. Mr.. McCleary
was around today apparently quite well.
He seems to be good friends now with
the ways and means committee and is
no longer counted as last dltcher"
7 had been busy for twelve hours in
the Indian committee" said McCleary,
''and was tired out, and SO stayed home.
AS to being a last ditcher,' it depends on
where the last ditch is
Tawneys beet sugar legion has been
routed. There are still irreconcilables
scattered through the house, and if no
one is looking they will tell what dcs-
perate things they are going to do, but
if a member of the ways and means
committee comes in sight they become
mild hammered. Even the last ditch
ers' A." brigade is routed. The bosses have
the whip hand. They cracked the whip
and the boys did the rest.
Payne says that a Cuban sugar reduc-
tion bill will be brought in soon. He
even says it VIII be necessary to have
a rule barring out the tariff amendments
So well disciplined are refractory ones
that they are expected to trot in harness
now ana quit hlcklnS over traces.
There is some talk about continuing the
fight in the senate, but that does not
count. About the only chance the Taw-
ney band has now to make trouble is to
get behind one or two of the reciprocity
treaties which the senate is preparing TO
send to the house, and begin to clamor
for more reciprocity Of the brand favored
by the ways and means committee.
Babcock will have the support of in
surgents for little proposed reciprocity
with the steel trust, and Heatwole will
push his amendment to take the duties
off wood pulp.

himself the successoc of Gen Lukban in
the island of Sanlar, to surrender, have
been successful. Both Gen. Smith, in
command of the United States forces in
the island OF Sanar, and Guervarra
have agreed to an armistice to facilitate
the collection of Guevarras men with
their rifles, when the formal surrender
will be made. The arms will be paid in
at the fort.
Gen. Smith cables that Guevarra has
four hundred rifles and that Guevarra
guarantees the absolute peaccfulness OF
his mer- Gen. Chaffee is greatly pleas
ed with what ne considers as closing the
active insurrection. Some surprise is ex-
pressed at the number of rifles to be
turned In by the men under Guevarra, as
it was thought there were but 200 in

LONDON, March ia plan to

subject of conference today between
Lord Salisbury and King Edward, and
between the premier ands War Secre-

origin in the critical situation in China
and the fact that Great Britain, with
nearly 100000 men busy in South Africa,
has no force with which to cope with
possible complications in the Orient.
According to the plan, England and
Ireland will raise and equip a new army

pared to take the field in defense of the
