uIary and Refuse to Dispense IN
Ill Fired Upon.

Belfast, Aug. 13.-Serious and fatal
disorders occurred here again Mon
day evening. The troops fired into
the crowd and woman and a man
were shot dead and a number Of 9TH
ers were seriously wounded.
The conflict between the soldiers
and the rioters took place In the vi
cinity of the constabulary barracks in
the Callingtree road. The trouble be-
came acute about six o'clock when a
mob of men and women attacked a
police inspector. Soldiers were at
once summoned to the scene. but they
were met by a hail OF paving stones
which resulted in emptying some Of
the saddles.
The riot act was read, but the mad
dened mob refused to dispense and
kept up terrific fusillade OF stones,
broken bottles and brickbats against
the police and the military. Bayonet
and baton charges failed to rout the
frenzied rioters and ultimately the or
der to fire was given.
The number wouRhed from the riffs
fire and the bayonet charges, and 9TH
erwise injured, is very great. and the
hospitals are overcrowded.

for by score of officers and towns
people, Evert Loony, aged Il, was
captured late Monday afternoon near

county Jail at Sigourney, where he is
held for one of the most dastardly
crimes imaginable.
Loony attended church Sunday even
ing and after the services were over

fourteen years of age, to allow him
to accompany her home. The girl is
the daughter of prominent, prosper

The two walked together as far as the
school house when he forced ner TO

of her shrieking cries and strenuous
objections, he succeeded in his pur.
pose before anyone could come to the
girls assistance. Loony Immediately
took to the woods and was nor seen
again until yesterday afternoon. Miss
Derby ran screaming and bleeding to
the home of her uncle and told of the
terrible assault, and neighbors and
friends were at once aroused. The
sheriff from Sigourney arrived shortly
before midnight and conducted a
careful search which lasted all night
without result. The brothers of the
young man entered in with the crowd
in securing the woods and many
threats were made of violence if the
criminal be found. Monday a dozen
young men from here welt out in the
direction of Loonys brotner-in-law's
place and ran across Evert about four
O'Clock in the afternoon. lying in hid

WRIT OF ERROR IS GRANTED
STANDARD OIL is PERMITTED TO
TAKE IT'S APPEAL.
Judge Grosscup, However, Refuses su.
persedeas Without Bond Other
Than for Costs.

Chicago Aug 10.-Judge Peter s.
Grosscup, of the United States circuit
court of appeals, Friday afternoon
granted to the Standard Oil company
of Indiana a writ of error allowing
the defense to take its appeal from
the Judgment of Judge X. NJ. Lands,
who imposed the record-breaking fine
of $29,240,OOO.
Efforts of the defending lawyers,
Moritz Rosenthal and Merritt Starr,
however, to obtain a supersedeas stay
ing the execution of the Judgment dur
ing the review of the case by the high
er court without furnishing more than
bond for costs were thwarted.
Mr.. Rosenthal and Mr.. Starr agreed
to wait awhile for the supersedeas,
taking their chances of the govern
ment's promises that no execution will
issue within 60 days.
Special Assistant District Attorney
James II. Wilkerson and Assistant Dis
trict Attorneys Harry A. Parkin and
Francis Hanchett appeared for the
government to contest the defendants
attorneys in their efforts to obtain a
supersedeas without any more than
one bond for costs.
1t was the contention of the govern
ment that the bond should be fixed at
500 100000, the amount of the fine i'm
posed by Judge Lands, in order to Sc
cure the government pending stay
of execution.
The assignment Of errors contains
116 citations in which Judge Lands
is declared to have erred. during the
course of the trial of the oil company.
1t is the contention Of the defense
that the court erred in overrullng and
not sustaining the demurrer to the In
dictment ON the ground that the Elk!ns
act under which the indictment had
been drawn, had been repealed by the

New York, Aug. 13.-United States
District Attorney Stimson Monday
filed in the United States circuit court

riman and Otto H. Kahn, the latter of
the firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., be
summoned into court to show cause
why they should not answer certain
questions relating to the control Of

These questions were asked during
the interstate commerce commissions

ed for Attorney General Bonaparte in

was deposited with the bankers with
the understanding that 1t was to be
sold to the Union Pacific at a price
to be made by a committee composed
Of Mr.. Hartman, John A. Stewart and
John J. Mitchell. AT the hearing Mr..
Hartman was asked what part of the
stock SO disposed of he owned. This
question he refused to answer.
Mr.. Hartman also refused to an
swer questions as to the amount Of
his holding OF Union Pacific preferred,
nor would ne state the holdings of H.
H. Rogers, H. C. Prick and himself in
Atchison, Topeka G. Santa Fe. Other
questions which Mr.. Hartman de-
clined to answer had to do with his
interest in the purchase of 100000
shares of Illinois Central, the famous
ten per cent. dividend of the Southern
Pacific road and his own profits &C.
casioned by the sudden rise in this
stock following the declaration of this
dividend.
What Kahn Wouldn't Tell.
The questions which Mr.. Kahn re-

connection of Kuhn, Loeb & Co. with
the purchase of stock in the Chicago

what portion of the stock so purchased
was for the directors of the Union

A case has been brought at Coulcil

The Y. M. C. A. Affords Boys A
Most Successful Outing.

Boys have an instinct that makes
them want to get out and live, in

The Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton attempts to train and develop this
instinct. IL does more than this. II
gives him a vacation at very low
cost. 1t gives nim training that he
needs throughout life. 1t gives him
pleasures that he will talk over in
after years. 1t teaches him TO study
and to love nature. 1t helps him earn
the money in many cases, to pay ais
expenses while at camp. This Is a
combination OF advantages that are
hard to find outside the Young Mems
Christian Association.
The last camp this summer will be-
gin August 20 and last about 16 or Is
days 1t will be unlike other camps
in several respects, as arrangements
will be made to accommodate both old
err and younger boys. The older boys
will come largely from the Big Broth
ers' club. Iuese will serve the camp
superintendent as leaders for the diff

SEEKS PAROLE FOR SON.
This Aged Man Has Had Rather More
Than His Share Of Trouble.

A 500 steer in Beaver county. the
boy has already served two years OF
his time. and as 1t is conceded by the
officials that his punishment was ex-
cessiye. his chances for a parole seem
to be good. Mr.. Tate is now s3 years
old and is one of Oklahoma's Oldest
settlers.
Twenty-Five years ago, before there
were any settlers in Oklahoma, two of
Tates sons came to Fort Sill, one as
a soldier and the other as a butcher
in connection with the post. The latter
was killed by a companion there, but
the murderer escaped. The father,
who was then a resident of Texas,
came to the fort and started out on the
trail of his sons slayer. He tracked
the man through various parts OF Ok
lahoma and Indian Territory into Tex
as. Arkansas and back into Texas
aagin. where he captured him single
handed and took him to Fort Smith, de
livering him there to the officers OF
/ the federal court, who then had juris
diction over all of Oklahoma and In
dian Territory.
Owing to the amount of business be
fore the court, the case did not come
up for trial for six months, but h'
returned on the date set giving hii
active assistance to the district attor
ney in prosecuting the case, and stay
