TWO IMPORTANT ARRESTS.
Lot of Postage stamps 60
Chicago Firm Arrested.

Chicago, Nov. 24.-Two men who
registered at the Wyoming hotel last
Friday as E. H. and E. B. Fuller, Of
Minneapolis. were arrested, Sunday
evening, and are said to be wanted in
connection with bag stamp robbery,
Whether or not they were implicated
in the $4,000 C3iicago post Office roh-
berry of last year is not known. The
third man, who appeared at the hotel
Monday morning, is believed to have
been taken into custody, although the
post office authorities will neither con-
firm nor deny the report.
Z. II. Fuller, said to have been at
one time in the employ of a prom
inent firm in this city, approached a
member of that firm, it is alleged, on
Saturday, and sought to dispose of ST.
500 worth of stamps. Suspicion was
aroused, and letters and kilograms
were intercepted at the hotel in which
mention was made of the disposition
of "swag." The men were APPARENTLY
about to leave the hotel hurriedly
when arrested.

OMAHA. Neb., Nov. 24.-Nebraska Is
on the eve Of the greatest scandal the
west has ever known. A scandal SO
wide-sprendlng and far-reaching that
thousands of people from twenty or
more states are concerned in its dif-
ferent ramifications. The conspiracy
extends 20 officers and representatives
of the United States and takes In bus
mess and professional men in many
cities and states; but the sufferers
will be the comparatively innocent,
The United States grand jury, in ses-
sion at Omaha, has had the matter
laid before them and are now probing
the scandal. Thousands of widows OF
union soldiers will probably be In
dicted for perjury and number OF
the best-kuown business men and pol
iticians of the west may be called up
on 20 plead TO the charge of con-
spiracy to defraud the United States
II is the old story of the cattle
baron of the west and his efforts to
keep out the small cattle raiser and
the settler who comes west with the
purpose of demonstrating" farm
for himself. But new tack has been
taken by these cattle kings. Instead
of the usual way of running long
line of wire fences across the govern
ment domain, they have hit upon the
plan of inducing the widows of union
soldiers TO take up homesteads and
sell their claims to the cattle raisers.

Funeral of bishop Thompson.

Bishop Hugh Miller Thompson
was inferred in st. Columb's Chapel,
at Jackson, last week. He was laid
in a vault beneath the chancel which
he had caused to be prepared when
the chapel was built about twelve
years ago in anticipation of his own
death.
In the morning holy communion
was celebrated at st. Columb's
chapel, the family, many friends, the
visiting bishops and clergy being
present to partake of the sacrament.
In the afternoon the funeral process
sion left Battle Hill, the bishops
residence. About twenty of the
most distinguished members of the
clergy present were designated as
honorary pallbearers. Arriving at
st. Andrews church the funeral cor
tege was met by a procession COM
posed of the choir, clergy and the
visiting bishops present, who had
formed in st. Andrews. The cas-
ket containing the remains of the
bishop was taken into the church
and the burial service for the dead
was read.
After the service the funeral pro-
cession was then reformed with a
number of visiting delegations in the
line of march. There was an espe-
cially large delegation from Trinity
church in New Orleans, of which
Bishop Thompson had been rector
for many years before he became
bishop. The procession proceeded
to st. Columb's chapel, where the re-
mains of the dead were laid to rest
with the usual ceremonies. In ad-
dition to the visiting delegations the
following bishops were present:
Garrett Of Texas, Sessums of Louis
lana, Nelson of Georgia and Gailor
of Tennessee.

FINISHING HIS MESSAGE.
President Roosevelt PuttiBg the
Finishing Touches ON His
Message to Congress.

Washington, Nov. 2i.-President
Roosevelt will put the finishing touch
es TO his annual message to congress
Tuesday. The document is practically
completed now, but it is the prosi-
dents desire finally TO consult several
of the leaders in both branches of
congress as TO one or two features Of
the message before he commits it to
the hands of the printer.
This was a day of conferences at
Che executive offices. The president
arrived in his Office early, and soon
was besieged by callers. With sew
eral senators and representative he
had engagements and denied him
self to other callers.
During the morning the president
had brief conferences with Senators
Allison, Of Iowa; Lodge, OF Massa-
chusetts;; Foster, of Washington;
Quay, of Pennsylvania; Fairbanks, OF
Indiana; Stewart of Nevada; Me.
Comas. of Maryland; Elkins, of West
Virginia. and Gibson of Montana, and
with Speaker Henderson and Repre-.
sentatives Cannon, Of Illinois; Bah
cock, of Wisconsin; Boutell, OF iii
nois, and Landis of Indiana.
Nearly every one of the callers was
with the president so short n time
that no opportunity was afforded to
discuss the important questions the
consideration of which is involved in
the message. Many Of them an
nounced as they left the executive Of
fees that they had called merely to
pay their respects.
