INDIANS AND HARvEsTERs FIGHT
NeIs johnson Killed In a Battle Started
by Bad Nrhisky,

Nels johnson Killed In Battle Starred
by Bad Whisky.
PARK RIVER, N. D.-A desperate bat
tie was fought yesterday afternoon be-
tween a band of Indian horse traders and
several harvest hands.
Nels Johnson, one of the latter, was shot
and instantly killed. After the killing Of
Johnson and the defeat of the harvest
hands, the Indians donned their war
paint They threw out pickets from their
camp along the roadside, and several per
sons driving along the road were fired on
and only escaped by whipping up their
horses. y ''
A band Of ten Indians, with their
sQuaws and papooses, camped on the out
skirts of Park River Saturday afternoon
The camp was visited yesterday afternoon
by several harvest hands, who took a.
quantity of liquor with them, and of
which the Indians drank freely. - s. ~
Both the Indian and harvesters were
armed. After the killing of Johnson a
citizens posse, heavily armed, threw
double guard about the Indians camp.
Another battle, less disastrous in it's re-
suits, but in which many shots were eX
changed, took place before the Indians
were subdued and surrendered to the
posse, which greatly outnumbered the
braves. ..@ -
All Of the Indians are in Jail, and
threats are made of lynching. The In
dams refuse to talk. They are angry, and
their only answers to the questions Of the
officials is grunt in their native tongue
Nothing is known Of the Indians now in
Jail, and little is known Of Johnson, the
dead man. His companions sayahis home

PETER POWER IS
SENTENCED TO JAIL
Judge Lacombe Orders Plaintiff in
Merger Suit Committed for Con-
tempt Of Court.

NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-The branch Of
the Peter Power suit started to attempt
to upset the Northern Pacific merger,
in which the attorneys for the road
have been attempting to get Mr.. Pow
er into court for the purpose of exam
lining him, reached an acute stage late
today before Judge Lacombe in the
United States circuit court. After some
short proceedings the court entered an
order committing Mr.. Power for thirty
days. He also ordered George Alfred
Lamb, counsel for Mr.. Power, to ap-
pear Aug. 20 to show cause why he
(Mr. Lamb) should not be suspended
or admonished for unprofessional con-
duct in connection with the case.
The occasion for the orders was that
though Mr.. Power had been repeatedly
ordered into court, he had paid no at
tention to the summonses and it was
believed was acting under the advice
of his counsel in disregarding them.
When the case was called Attorney
William D. Guthrie outlined the his
tory of the case and mentioned the
different times when subpoenas had
been served upon Mr.. Power. He de-
scribed the service of papers on July
"a. Mr.. Power and Mr.. Lamb came
out of the latter's office together and
Power allowed the papers to fall to
the ground. Mr.. Guthrie stated that
Lamb told Power to come along and
not mind the papers. Mr.. Lamb after
ward returned and picked up the pa
pers and So which accompanied them.
Then, according to Mr. Guthrie, Mr.
Lamb telephoned to Mr.. Stitson and
said he wished an early hearing as he
wanted to sail for Europe the follow
ing Saturday A hearing was given
before a notary public at Mr.. Stitsons
Office and Mr.. Lamb failed to produce
Power. Mr.. Guthrie read many pas
sages from the testimony taken at the
various sessions to show, as he said
Mr.. Power stayed away upon Mr..
Lambs advice.

from Davenport that wild excitement
prevails. Stores are closed and people
are croWding around to get a sight Of
the outlaws body. 1t is stated that
heavy guard is kept around the morgue
where the body is kept, as we'll as
around the corpse itself, to prevent
relic hunters from tearing the cloth
ing to pieces and carrying away SOU
veniers.
For two days and as many nights
Tracy held the family of Farmer L.
B. Eddy under subsection. Here again
he showed nerve and cool headedness,
but these very qualities brought about
his downfall. Had he not allowed G.
e. Goldfinch, the eighteen year old
boy, to leave the ranch when he did,
the story might be different. But the
outlaw had too much faith in esti-
mating the terror his words of warn
ing would give to the lad.
Told by Young GoIdfnch.
The story Of the exploits of the IA
nous bandit at the Eddy ranch are
given by the boy who was his servant
for over a day. 1t was Sunday after
noon that Goldfinch was riding a horse
across the prairie not far from the
Eddy farm. He noticed a strange man
camped not far from where he pass
ed. To all appearances the stranger
was just having his supper, but young
Goldflnch paid no attention to him, not
seeing anything unusual in his ac-
tionS. Just as the boy was going by
the camper called out, asking him to
have some supper. With the reply that
he had just finished his supper, Gold
| finch did not even Slacken the pace of
his horse, and passed the stranger. 1t
was then that an imperative command
from the man brought Goldfinch to a
| sudden stop. He was ordered to come
| back. This order the boy obeyed. With
| his usual ceremony Tracy soon made
himself known. He inquired the way
| to the nearest farm and was directed
| to the Eddy. Tracy at this time still
had two horses. One he rode. The
other, the boy says, was loaded with
| groceries and bedding.
''You go ahead and tell them I am
| coming" commanded the outlaw.
Goldfinch readily complied and start
| ed ahead to announce the coming of
the guest Tracy, however, kept close
on the heels of the lad, evidently not
intending to give him a chance to give
warning.
On the way to the house Tracy no
ticed a rope trailing from his pack
| animal. That's leaving a bad mark -
said the outlaw, and he stopped to
| gather in the trailing coils. He then
went on his way to the Eddy ranch.
Arriving there Goldfinch performed the
service allotted to him and soon told
the family who the visitor was. The
night passed without any special hap
pening. In the morning Tracy first
made his toilet. A bath and shave
were included in his morning make
| up, the farmer and his men having
provided soap, towels and water.

THER'LL BE- NO FIGHT,
McsWEENEY WILL PRE-
VENT 1T.
BE Has Looked Up the Law and His Duty
10 Plain and He will Act Accordingly.
columbia Record, 9Th.

There will be no prize fight or
"Glove contest in Charleston.
Governor McSweeney went to Char
lesion this morning. Before going ne
had expected to receive some COM
munication from Charleston relative
to the fight, but nothing came. 1t
was published yesterday that the
attorneys of Jaudon, who is engineer
ing the fight, would see the Cover
nor and find out definitely what he
would do about 1t, but they didn't
show up, probably knowing that he
would be in Charleston today.
The Governor reiterated his state
ment that he saw 40 particular use
in announcing his position, in view OF
the fact that he did not officially
know that fight would take place,
but he has looked up the law on the
subject, and this being so, there is
but one thing that he can do, and
that is to prevent the fight. Both
the constitution and the statute laws
are plain on the subject and such
contests are absolutely prohibited.
When the question is brought to
his attention in Charleston, the gov
ernor will infoom the promoters that
the fight cannot take place. He
will instruct the sheriff not to allow
it and there is no doubt that he can
prevent it. But in case there is any
trouble about stopping it on the part
of the sheriff, the Governor will act
otherwise, even going to the extent
of calling out the local military II
necessary. Since these things are
true the fight may be considered a
closed incident, SC far as this State is
concerned.
Jaudon, the promoter, was to post
$4,000 as a forfeit that he could
pull off the fight in this State, but, of
course, the money has not been de-
posted, nor will it be under the Cir
cumstances. Some prominent citizens
of Charleston have seen the Cover
nor about the matter in order to see
if there was not some way whereby
the fight could be had, and there
will be considerable disappointment
when the Governors decision ls
known.

OF Third =. C. Regiment
SKETCH OF HOSPITAL LIFE.

l had been teasing DR.. Evans the
day before the fight, and asked him
if his knives we're sharp. He said
they were sharp enough for me. L
told him he would have to use them
on me the next day. AS soon as l
was carried to him asked if his
knives were sharp and told him to 60
to work. In a few days I was sent
to Orange C.H and put in the depot.
1 asked the doctor in charge to give
me some whiskey; he refused, but
slugged it himself. I asked to be
put on the train, and he refused;
then I told him I would 60 any way.
He told me if I could get on the
train I could go. I got two of the
End regiment to put me on; the doc
tor did not notice me. We we're
sent to Charlottesville. An 1rishman
was nurse and had to dress my wound.
He treated me so badly that I got a
negro boy to bring me stick which
I used on the Irlshman's head. he
was sent back to the regiment and l
fell into the hands of Walter A.
Hames, who got me good mattress
and prevailed on the surgeons to put
nv leg in a wire splint and swing 1t
off the bed; he dressed my leg daily
and after eight weeks it was taken
out of the splint, and in four or five
weeks more I was taken up and put
in chair; in week or two more L
could walk a little on crutches, and
was sent home on the Both OF
September. Cas- ward had the
best attention shat was possible
under the circumstances. The Ia
dies visited us every day and brought
us all the de;icacies of the season.
We had oyster soup, ice cream
frozen strawberries, eggs, milk, be-
sides what we we're given from the
government kitchen.
The doctors were kind and did all
in their power for us. The ladies
read for US, Brought us pipes, tobac-
co and matches and nursed US as If
we we're their brothers. The children
came in and sang for us. The only
people who seemed to neglect US
we're the preachers. Only one, a
Campbellite gave me much attention.
but he was very kind indeed.
