George Harrigan, awaiting examin-
alton on a charge of lunacy, set fire
to his cell at $3.50 this morning, and

The sheriff removed him to another

CHICAGO IS EAGER
TO MAKE OWN GAS.
Municipal Ownership of Street
Railways to Be Followed by
Lighting Plant Deals.

Chicago, April 24.-Agitation to es-
tablish municipal ownership of gas
works as well as street railways in Chi
cago was inaugurated in earnest TO-
day by public meeting in the city
council chamber. Mayor Dunno and
members of the legislature met the fifty
citizens whom the mayor appointed as
a committee to 60 to Springfield to pro.
test against sidetracking the Chicago
gas bills.
If these bills are passed the city will
be enabled to fix the maximum price
of gas charged to the consumer and be
empowered to own and operate gas
plants, as it hopes to own and operate
street car properties. Mayor Dunno
said: -..-
''rhe city cannot get control of the
gas plants now in existence unless, like
i any other purchaser, it buys them. fol-
the reason that there is no expiring fran
chise. These franchises are perpetual
But under an enabling act we can estab
lish plants in competition with the gas

MlCHELET AWARDS LAND
INDIAN AGENT AT WHITE EARTH
AVERTS A CLASH BETWEEN
FULLBLOODs AND BREEDS.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal. 500
White Earth, Mimi, April 24.-Simon
Michelet, Indian agent at this agency,
began today the allotment Of eighty
acres additional land granted by the
government to all Indians on this reser-
walton. This means eighty acres in adj
dition to previous allotments to every
man, woman and child--about $500 in
all.
The allotments were made on the
plan of first come first served, and the
Indians began to line up Sunday morn
ing.
This morning there was long line
waiting in front of the agent g office,
and among the number several half
breeds. Some of the fullbloods were in.
clined to object seriously to the par
ticipation Of the halfbreeds in the al
lotment on equal terms with them, and
for time there was prospect Of Sc.
rious trouble.
Mr. Michelet, however, managed to
avert clash between these factions
and the allotment has been going on
quietly since about IL o. CLOCK. Some
Of the best agricultural land in the
state lies in the west half Of this res.
ervation. The allotment will probably
last thru the remainder Of the week.

Enormous Exodus from Missouri
Metropolis, Caused by Tight
Ils. "Lid,' on Sunday.
New York Sun Special Service.


St. Louis, April 24.-Seventy-fve
thousand persons left st: Louis yestec-
day to buy drinks. Warm, bright
weather afforded the first test of the
effect of the enforcement of the Sunday
closing laws Of the state against the
saloons. Last Sunday was cold and
dreary and comparatively few people
were on the streets. Yesterday every
one wanted to be out Of doors, and ex-
ercise in the open air engendered thirsrs
that would not come off.
AS result there was a constant pro-
cession all day long across the Eads
bridge, fully 10000 persons going over
to the east side, where it was possible
to get beer, whisky or any other liquor
wanted at regular prices. Almost as
many more vert out to St. Louis coun-
ty, where, notwithstanding the orders
Of the governor Of the state, few sa-
loonkeepers made any pretense Of clos
ing.
Drunkenness and disorder abounded
on the east side and in the country, and
it is safe to say that more drinking was
INDUCED in today by st. Louisiant than
for many months. -.
In the city the lid was on tight, only
three saloons being reported for in.

MOST ALARMING REPORTS.
A Reign of Terror Throughout the Bal.
 tic Provinces.

St. Petersburg, Dec. 13 (Via Eydtk- uhnen Prussia) - The governments advices today from the Baltic prov inces are Of a most alarming ch lrac ter. Bands of thousands Of peasants are roaming the country iE the viCln ity of Riga, putting tne torch to houses of all the estates even threatening the town of Riga itself The districts of Riga and Vendoncv are entirely in the hands of the insurgents. The re- volt is spreading to all parts of COur- land. Railway communication with Ri ga is cut off. The insurgents have seized a number of the stations of three railroads leading from the city and are advancing on the otne" side.
 The government is making little hoadway in crushing the telegraph strike The wires of the few lines over which the service has been temporarily resumed are constantly being cut, and not a single wire was working ont of St. Petersburg this morning. At the present rate weeks will elapse before the service will be really restored News from Baltic provinces today is to the effect that many German land lords who have not fled are estab- fishing a net work of small forts and standing a regular siege. There is Imuch killing and burning.

Among the passengers on western

 accompanied by a bright looking nurse
 girl and a self-wllled. tyrannical boy
 of about three years. The boy aroused
 the indignation of the passengers by
 his continued kicks and shrieks and
 screams, and his viciousness toward his patient nurse. He tore her bonnet, scratched ner hands, and finally spat ir her face without a word of remon-
 strance from the mother. Whenever the nurse manifested any firmness the mother chided her sharply. Finally the mother composed herself for a nap, and about the time the boy had slapped the nurse for the fifth time a bug came sailing in and flew on the window of the nurses seat The boy
 at once tried to catch it. The nurse caught his hand and said, coaxingly: Harry musn't touch. Bug will bite l Harry" Harry screamed savagely and

It Is Feared that the Blood Letting Will Culmtnate in a General Mas sacre on St. Bartholomew's.

St. Petersburg, Dec. 13.-(via Ely ! tkuhnen, Dec. 14)-The government is sending several columns of troops to , the Baltic provinces of Esthonia and CoUrland and to Riga. In response to appeals from the German embassy de- | manding protection of German subjects , the government has replied that am- 1 pie troops were now on the way to in- ! sure the protection of all foreigners.
 August Won Jennings, a prominent ! member of the Baltic nobility, and assistant chief of his district, was | atrociously murdered at his residence : near Riga by a revolutionary band. | Two dragons who were detailed to guard the residence were also killed. A servant who walked sixty miles to catch a train, brought the details of the horrible event to St. Petersburg. Ac- cording to the servant the revolution aries demanded that Won Hennings give up his sword. On being told that as an officer he could not surrender 1 with honor, the revolutionares shot him. Subsequently his head was hack ek off and his body cut to pieces and l fed to the dogs.
 M. Bompard, the French ambass ador, who returned suddenly fortnight ego on account of the crisis, has left for

VESTS INVITATION
 10 EASTERN TOURISTS
Further Step in the Organization of
 aTrade Congress.

Mention was made in these columns a week ago of the receipt by the board of trade, of a letter from the commercial club of Salt Lake City, announcing it's purpose and asking CO., operation in the project of a trans Mississippi trade congress, and to which letter a favorable reply was made by the board of trade. The ob- feet of the convention is to take steps to divert tourist travel to the west instead of across the water to the old world
 Yesterday Governor Kibbey receiv- ed a letter from the special committee of the commercial club having this matter in charge. The personnel of the committee is sufficient guarantee of the importance of the interests repre- sented by the commercial cub, as the following named gentlemen signed the letter: Heber M. Wells, former gov ernor of Utah; John c. Cutler, governor of Utah; Richard P. Morris, mayor or Salt Lake City; Simon Bamberger, W.. P. O'Meara, John J. Judson, and Fisher Harris. The letter is explanatory of the importance of the enterprise, and the facts set forth are worth while for western people to think about. The fol- lowing extracts from the letter are re- produced:
 "We have the honor to respectfully invite the attention of your eXceIency to the movement inEugurated by the Commercial Club of this city, looking 10 a possible diversion into western channels of at least a part of the enor- nous sum of money now being eX- pended each year in foreign countries by American citizens in search of health, pleasure and recreation.
