tere, brothers sell their sisters and couS-
ins. and he knew OF one instance where

q slave.
Remedy for Evils.
Mr.. Debeck recommended as remedy
for the existing evils, first. the putting
down Of the potlatch. which Is really at tho
bottom OF all the evils complained of. He
says II should be done with firm hand
not In tho slipshod manner In which JUS
tlce had been administered the Indians in
the past, secondly. he suggests a rigid
sale OF intoXicants to Indians.
Marry Women Legally.
Thirdly. he suggests putting a stop to
tho custom OF buying and selling wo-
men. and If possible. to compel any In
dians TO marry their women legally and.
lastly II possible. to keep out the graft
ers.
Mr. Debeck concluded. You may leg
islate @ for these Indians until doomsday
and they Will never do any good until
this curse OF their whole lives the pot
latch. Is completely wiped out"
Crimes Go Unpunished.
Further he says People come here In
the garb Of missionaries, start a store.
commence trading with the Indians. TAX
ing what they can get out of them ride
roughshod over the Indian act. and then
are upheld by the Indian department AS
the same. All manner of crimes are
committed among the Indians, even muir
der, and II is seldom that any OF them
are brought to Justice"

Washington, Sept. 22.-Advices from
Havana only confirm the feeling which
has been entertained here that the
differences between the government
of Cuba and the insurgent forces are
irreconcilable and that even if the
presidents commissioners should sue
coed in accomplishing any arrange
ment for the settlement of the difficult
ties In Cuba it would only be tenn
porary and that crisis must neces-
sarily result sooner or later. Inter-
vention, therefore, by the United
States is likely to occur at any mo-
ment. ..@ 1-~ d.. .-..- .+...
Officials of the war, state and navy
departments, when shown the Havana
bulletin telling of the impending
crisis, would not admit the receipt of
any contirmatory advices, but it is
known definitely that the government
officials here entertain the view as
herein stated. 1t was said that in case
of Intervention one of the first acts Of
the United States would be the adop-
ton of a policy Of RECOMMENDATION,
but without the horrors attending
similar policy of General Weyler.

MOyle, an infant, fourteen months old,
was found beside the corpse OF his
foster mother, Mrs. Catherine Bynam.
a widow, in the kitchen of her small
apartments in Brooklyn. The baby
had evidently spent hours of intense
suffering, for, having eaten all the
food In the room that he could reach
by his utmost efforts, he had been
forced by the cravings Of hunger to
chew the sawdust contents of toy
horse. The floor was strewn with
broken dishes and with kitchen uten-
sils and with pans in the kitchen win
dows, within striking distance of his
arms, which were full of splinters, all
from his struggles for food. The lit
tie one was taken to hospital. 1t is
believed he can be nursed back to
health. @.@
Mrs. Bynam probably dropped dead
from heart disease. She had not been
seen for four days.

16. Without Red Lake, Saxrud
was 70 votes to the good.
The mem bers Of the canvassing
board appeared before the court
this morning at 9 o'clock, and
through their attorney, E. E.
Mcdonald, filed an objection to
the issuing of any order, on the
ground that the affidavit filed by
the attorney for Mr.. Sibley vas
insufficient, in that it failed to
name any specified precinct that
the affiant bt lieved would not be
canvassed and counted and
returned to the county auditor.
The objection was admitted
and Mr.. Sibley was given until 1
o'clock this afternoon to file and
amended affidavit, the return on
the same to be made at 2 O'Clock.
A 2 o'clock, Judges McClena-
han and Spooner jointly consid-
cred the answer of the board re-
lative to canvassing the Red
Lake vote. By agreement of the
counsel for Mr.. Sibley and the
board, the court was allowed to
open the sealed package and re-
turns and pass upon them as to
whether, in the opinion of the
court, the returns should be can
vassed, counted and returned to
the auditor. After examining
the returns, Judge McClenahan
announced that the court de-
cided that the board should not
be compelled to canvass the re-
turns, as they were insufficient
and incomplete.
1t is probable that counsel for
Mr.. Sibley will take further
action looking to the counting of
the vote.
