NEW YORK, April 6.-The charges

FOREST RESERVE
BILL is REPORTED
But Senator Hans brOugh's
Measure First UndergOes
Some Changes.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 6.-Sen-
ator Hansbrough's bill relating to the
creation of forest reservations on the
public domain, as amended by the
committee on public lands, was favor
ably reported today. The committee
adopted an amendment providing that
all selections of land made in lieu Of
land relinquished to the United States
within any forest reservation shall be
limited to land Of the same character
and quality, both as to soil and timber,
as the land relinquished. Senator Hey
burn offered an amendment requiring
that selections be made in the state and
territory in which the land relinquish-
ed is situated. This amendment was
rejected, and an exemption was made
Of Idaho, so that no selections shall be
made in that state except for land re-
linquished in the state.
The section of the bill relating to
railroad land grants was amended so
that it provides that no forest reserva-
ton shall hereafter be created covering
any lieu land or any lands within the
place or indemnity limits of any rail-
road land grant, or any plated village,
town or city. The secretary of the in
terror is authorized to ascertain lands
within such reserves which are chiefly
valuable for agriculture and permit
these to be disposed of to actual set
tiers under the homestead laws in
tracts not exceeding $50 acres in area.

STUDENT STABBED
IN CAMPUS Fight
D. c. Dow of Shakopean So
Ciety Is Badly Cut During
Clash at University.

In a fight last night on the univer-
sity campus, in Minneapolis, between
the members of the Shakopean Liter
ary society and four rival organiza-
tions, D. c.. Dow, a member of the
senior academic class and a leader Of
the Shakopeans, was stabbed by one
Of the members Of the other associa-
tions. The knife wound is not dan
gerous, the blade having made an ugly
but Slight cut in Dow's left breast.
Besides Dow, at least dozen other
students were injured during the melee.
Canes and clubs were used freely dur
ing the battle with telling effect.
The fight arose from an attempt by
the four literary societies to break up a
dancing party that the Shakopeans
were giving to the members of the Mi
nerva society at the Y. M. G. A. build
ing. During the party the Shakopeans'
rivals made frequent attempts to an
noy the merrymakers. They finally
succeeded in putting out the lights.
This lead to the trouble.
Within a moment after the lights
went out the entire force of Shako-
peans fell upon their tOrmentors, while
their lady escorts cheered them to vic
tory.
Although outnumbered and taken
unawares, the ShakOpeans were best
ing their rivals when Dow was stabbed.
The aggressors had been forced to the
campus by the Shakopeans, who were
led by Dow. In the dark a hand-to-
hand struggle took place. Dow became
separated from his friends, and, finding
himself completely surrounded by the
enemy, called for quarter.
But the enemy was giving no quar-
ter, and as blow upon blow was rained
upon Dow's head he became desperate.
This lead to the battle which resulted
in the stabbing, for in the mix-up that
followed Dow's assault someone drew
a knife and plunged the blade into
DOw's breast.
Although not dangerously hurt, Dow
became very weak from the loss Of
blood and it was necessary to assist
him to his home.
Soon after the stabbing the battle
subsidized. The police were informed of
the fight and are now looking for the
man who used the knife.

Special to The Globe.
DETROIT, Mich, April 6.-All the
telegraph lines in Eastern Canada may
be tied up tomorrow night by a strike
of telegraphers, caused by the Western
Canadian Telegraph company discharg-
ing five of it's operators. The offices at
Toronto London, Ottawa and Montreal
are closed and it is predicted that the
trouble will spread to all the other
cities in the Eastern Dominion In
fact, the strike is likely to spread to
the United States.
Five telegraphers were discharged
last week by the Western Canadian
company. The Telegraphers' union de-
manded their reinstatement. When the
company refused the strike was de-
clared.
An attempt to secure operators in
Buffalo and Detroit to take the places
of the strikers has failed. A party of
twenty five, who tried to enter Canada
tonight, were sent back by the Cana
dian officials, as the importation of the
men was in violation of the Canadian
alien labor law. A delegation from
Buffalo was also sent back.

INSURANCE ORDER

Illinois Superintendent Brings
Charges Against Loyal
Americans.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, April 6.-Sensa-
tional charges against certain officers
Of the Loyal Americans are made
in a bill filed by State Insurance
Superintendent Vredenburgh in the
Sangamon county court this afternoon,
in which he asks that the organiza-
ton be enjoined from doing business
and that its assets be converted and
distributed. A temporary injunction
was granted by the court. There are
$4,000 members in the organization.
Supt. Vredenburgh alleges that ex-
animation by the insurance depart
ment of the books of the Loyal Amer
leans, before its consolidation with the
Royal Circle, showed that the
organization had failed to comply
with it's rules, regulations and bylaws,
and that it had exceeded its powers
The bill also charges that $4,000 was
withdrawn by officers, without author
ization from the supreme council, which
body, according to the laws of the or
ganization, must sanction every eX-
penditure.
The Royal Circle, which was consoI-
idated with the Loyal Americans, was
found to be insolvent by the insurance
department before the consolidation,
and the inspectors found that its Of
ficers had conspired to secure $4,000
and that not one-tenth of it's members
voted for consolidation with the Loyal
Americans. The bill charges that since
the consolidation the officers have in
creased their salaries from $4,000 to
$4,000 per year without warrant in

sions in nearly every country in the

in circulation that plural marriages have
been entered into contrary to the official
declaration of President Woodruff of Sept
26, 1890, commonly called the manifesto
which was issued by President Woodruff
and adopted by the church at it's general
marriage violative of the law of the land,
/, Joseph F. Smith, president of the
Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day
Saints, hereby affirm and declare that no
such marriages have been SOlemniZed with
the sanction, consent or knowledge of
the church, and l hereby announce that
all such marriages are prohibited; and If
any officer or member of the church shall

such marriage he will be liable to be
dealt with according to the rules and reg
ulatiOns thereof and eXcommunicated
therefrOn.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April ct.
B. Walker, of Minneapolis, appeared
before the house committee on public
lands today and made an argument
against the repeal of the timber and
stone act. The bill under considera-
ton was the one which already has
passed the senate, which would give
the secretary of the interior a right to
dispose of the stumpage of timber at
auction to the highest bidder. Mr..
Walker contended that it would raise
the price of scrip, and that the poor
man and the rich lumberman would
suffer great hardship by its passage.

seph F. Smith, of the Mormon church
that they are broad-minded enough to
consent to "the shocking violations Of
law and public decency. which he con-
fessed to have committed" The pro-
tests declare that polygamists have
surrounded themselves with an impen-
etrable wall of secrecy in their perpe-
tration of misdeeds, and that the veil
has been lifted in part for the first
time in the testimony given by church
leaders during the investigation of the

say that further disclosures equally

conference promises to be one of the
most important ever held in the history
of the church. There is a strong senti-
ment among the delegates in favor of
stopping the propagation of polygamy.
The principal speech today was by
President Joseph Smith. He referred
to the disclosures in the Smoot investi-
cation and said he had long felt that
sooner or later such information would
become known and that it gave the re-
organized church a splendid opportu-
nifty to show the American people it
was not in sympathy with such prac-
tices.
