Hi tie, Mont., June 6.— Thomas
King, aged thirty-four, was hanged at
Boulder, Jefferson county, to-day for
the murder of Matthew F.ogarty, last
November. The two got into a quarrel
at a ball, and King shot and killed Fo
garty. King claimed that he
had no intention of shooting Fo
garty, the revolver going off acci
dently. He maintained the truth
of this to the last, and just after the
eheriff had read the. death warrant
King's lawyer read a statement pre
pared by the condemned man to the
effect that he was innocent of the crime
of murder. King did not sleep a wink
last night. He was very nervous,
and fears were entertained that
he would break down on his way
to the gallows. Just before the proces
sion he was given a big glass of whisky,
which enabled him to undergo the or
deal. He embraced the Catholic relig
ion. His last words were: "I am pre
pared to meet my God." His neck was
broken and death was instantaneous.
Not a relative or friend was present,and
the body was buried in a pauper's
grave.

HUBON. S. D., June 6.— The Farmers'
alliance convention adjourned this aft
ernoon, but before doing so resolved by
a vote of 413 to 83 to form an independ
ent political party. A recess was taken

silver; the adoption of the Australian
or other secret ballot system; economy
in the government of affairs, and the

Special to the Globe.
Jamestown, N. D. June 6.— The
North Dakota alliance meeting ad
journed this morning at 4 o'clock and
the delegates took the early trains for
home. The state committee, which is
authorized to call a convention and
place an alliance ticket in the field iv
case the alliance demands are ignored
by the two political parties, was only
partially made up and will be an
nounced later. The Dakota Ruralist,
of Huron, S. D., was made the official
organ of the alliance. Outsiders
tried to induce the alliance to
secure the prosecution of Superintend
ent McCabe, of the Northern Pacific, as
well as the company, on the charge of
cutting telegraph wires. The effort was
a failure, as the farmers refused to take
up the matter. On the contrary, resolu
tions declaring general their satisfac
tion over railway legislation were
passed, and no complaint against the
foad was even considered.
FIGHTING FOR CONTROL.
Iron Milling Company's Stock-
holders in a Jungle.
Special to the Globe.
Deadwood, S. D., June 6.— At the
regular annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Iron Milling company for
the election of officers, which occurred
to-day, a most bitter and exciting con
test took place, which is likely to lead
to serious results. Considerable dissat
isfaction has been felt of late over the
way the company's business has been
conducted under the present manage
ment, and it seems the malcontents have
been secretly working to buy up a ma
jority of the stock so as to secure a
change in the management. Whether
they will Bucceed or not is doubtful.
The election was begun at 2 o'clock this
afternoon in the city hall, which was
packed to its utmost by spectators.
Nearly all the stock was represented.
The (afternoon was consumed in fili
bustering, and when the meeting ad
journed until 8 o'clock this evening the
first ballot had not been completed.

Old Boss Carpenters Forced to

Chicago. June 6.— The series of legal
prosecutions by the old Boss Carpen
ters' association against the members of
the "Journeymen Carpenters' associa
tion, accused of intimidating and as
saulting non-union men, began this
afternoon. The first case called
resulted in the discharge of the
accused. Four other cases were partly
heard, and contintned to June 12. The
leading witness for the bosses was
Charles Mach, a detective, who, during
the strike, posed as a union man. Con
siderable excitement prevailed before
the trials began by one of the journey
men carpenters denouncing the prose
cution's principal attorney, F. Porter
Johnson, as a spy. It is said that Mr.
Johnson was seemingly the staunch
est friend of the carpenters during
the strike. He made speeches for
them and advocated decidedly radical
measures. Some of. his speeches were
so incendiary, it is said, that other
speakers refused to remain on the plat
form with him. All this 'time, the men
claim, Mr. Johnson was in the employ
of the bosses: that he was admitted to
che secret meetings held by the jour
neymen's council, and carried such in
formation as he got Jthere to President
Goldie, keeping the employers 'associa
tion appraised of every move the strik

President Harrison Explains
the Recent Trouble at
Cedar Keys.
Washington, June 6. — The house
met at 11 o'clock this morning, and de
bate began at (Jnce on the silver bill.
Mr. Lind, of Minnesota, said he repre
sented an agricultural district, the
farmers of which were poor, but not
wholly prosperous. The depressed con
dition was due to the low prices of
agricultural products, which he believed
were affected by the amount of money
in circulation. The increase of circula
tion advanced prices, the shrinkage of
circulation diminished them. The great
mass of the ueople demanded that
silver should be restored to its
former position. The people under
stood the question, and could think and
reason as well as members of congress.
He said the treasury bill was the most
objectionable, for, under a friendly sec
retary, it might be made useful in in
creasing the yolurne of currency; but
under au unfriendly secretary it might
be dangerous. The least objectionable
proposition was the Republican caucus
bill. Mr. Flower, of New York, spoke
entirely in behalf of a constitutional
amendment for the election by the peo
ple of officials who are now appointed.
Mr. Lacey, of lowa, said there was an
absolute shortage of funds. The pend
ing bill, which was practically a free
coinage bill, proposed to increase the
circulation to offset the contrac
tion. It was a free coinage
measure, because it provided that when
silver was at par the mints should be
open to free coinage. The country
needed an expansion of the currency in
a safe way, which this bill provided.
Mr. Kerr, of lowa, advocated the bill as
a long step in the right 'direction, and
thought that it did not merit the con
demnation in which the gentlemen on
the other side indulged. The bill would
result in the remonetization of silver,
and in the two metals ultimately going
hand in hand. Mr. Mcßae, of Arkansas,
appealed to gentlemen on the other side
who believed in free coinage to restore
silver to its proper place, not step by
step, but as it was destroyed— in one
jump. Referring to the attitude of
President Cleveland on the silver ques
tion, he said that Mr. Cleveland was not
in accord with the sentiment of a large
majority of his party. At the con
clusion of Mr. Mcßae's remarks the
house, at 5 o'clock, took a recess until
8 o'clock, the evening session to be
for general debate on the silver bill.
Mr. Perkins (Kansas), acted as speak
er pro tern at the evening session. Mr.
Barnes, of Georgia, spoke in favor of
free coinage. Mr. Parett, of Indiana,
favored a bi-metallic system. Mr. El
lis, of Kentucky, argued that the pend
ing bill as completely demonetized sil
ver as did the law of 1873. Mr. Burton,
of Ohio, could not give his assent to free
coinage at this time. Mr. Lane, of Illi
nois, spoke in opposition to the pend
ing bill. Mr. Shiveiy, of Indiana, con
tended that the disparity between the
yellow and white metals was due to
adverse legislation against the latter
metal. Mr. Wickham, of Ohio, believ
ing that the pending measure would co
a long way in giving relief to the busi
ness depression of the country, gave it
his support. Mr. Montgomery, of Ken
tucky, spoke briefly in favor of free
coin. Mr. Holman,of Indiana, gave a
succinct history of the demonetization
act of 1873. Mr. Heard, of Missouri, at
tacked the pending measure. Mr.
Wheeler, of Alabama, advocated free
coinage as a panacea for the ills of the
farmer. After further debate the house,
at 11 p. m.. adjourned until 11 o'clock
to-morrow.
PRE-EMPTION FILINGS
Are Excepted From Subsequent
Grants to Railroads.
Washington, June 6.— An impor
tant decision was rendered to-day by.the
secretary of the interior in the case of
The Northern Pacific ftailroadCompauy
against John Stovenour, involving a
tract of land in the Bozeman land dis
trict in Montana. The secretary holds
that a priroa facie valid unexpired pre
emption filing, existing at the date
when the grant to the Northern Pacific
company became efiective, excepts
thereby the land covered from the
grant; also that the presumption of the
existence of a pre-emption claim ceases
on the expiration of the statutory period
fixed for making final proof and pay
meut. The secretary also holds in the
ex-parte case of James W. Barry that a
pre-emptor whose claim was pending at
the passage of the homestead act of
March 2, 18S9, may transmute his pre
emption filing into a homestead entry,
in spite of the fact that prior thereto
he may have had the lien on hie of
homestead entry.
COTTRELL'S VILE CAPERS.
President Harrison's Version of
the Cedar Keys Outrages.
Washington, June 6.— The presi
dent sent to the senate to-day, in re
sponse to a resolution of May 26 request
ing information concerning the alleged
landing of an armed force from the
United States revenue cutter McLane
at Cedar Keys, Fla., and the alleged
entry of the houses of citizens by force,
and their alleged pursuit of citizens of
the United States in the surrounding
country, a letter containing what he de
scribes as all the information possessed
by the executive department relating to
the matters inquired into. "It will be
observed," says the president, "that the
United States collector of customs at
Cedar Keys had been driven from his
office and from the town, and the ad
ministration of the customs laws of the
United States at that port suspended by
the violent demonstration and threats
of one Cottrcll, the mayor of the place,
assisted by his town marshal, Mitchell.
If it had been necessary, as Ido not
think it can be,ln any case, for a United
States officer to appeal to the local
authorities for immunity from violence
in the exercise of his duty, the situation
at Cedar Keys did not snggest
or encdurage such an appeal, for
those to whom the appeal would
have been addressed were them
selves the lawless instruments
of the threatened violence. It will
always be agreeable to me if the local
authorities, acting upon their own
sense of duty, maintain the public
ST. PAUL, MINN., SATURDAY MORNING, JDNE 7, 1890.
order in such a way that the officers of
the United States shall have no occa
sion to appeal for the intervention of
the general government, Out when this
is not done 1 shall deem it my duty io
use the adequate powers vested in the
executive to make it safe and feasible
to hold and exercise the offices estab
lished by the federal constitution and
laws. The means used In this case
were, in my opinion, lawful and
necessary, and the officers do
not seem to have Intruded upon
any private right in executing the
warrants placed in their hands. The
letter dated Aug. 4 last, which appears
in the correspondence submitted, ap
pealing to me to intervene for the pro
tection of the city of Cedar Keys from
the brutal violence of Cottrell, it wilt be
noticed, was written before the appoint
ment of the new collector. That the
officers of the law should not have had
the full sympathy of every good citizen
in their efforts to bring these men to
merited punishment is a matter of sur
prise and regret. It is a very grim com
mentary npon the condition of social
order at Cedar Keys that only a woman
who had, as she says in her letter, no
son or husband who could be made the
victim of his malice, had the courage to
file charges against this man, who was
then holding a subordinate place in the
customs service." The papers accom
panying the message include the corre
spondence between the department of
justice and Marshal Weeks and be
tween the treasury department and the
customs officers and officers of the rev
enue cutter McLane, which was sent to
Cedar Keys. The detailed report of S.
L' Estrange, United States deputy mar
shal, who was sent to Cedar Keys to
search for Cottrell and Mitchell, with
warrants for their arrest, shows
that Cottrell was not found, but
Mitchell was arrested and released on
bail. L'Estrange says that he and Capt.
Smythe, of the McLane, were victim
ized by people who failed them several
times in their efforts to capture Cottrell.
The captain of a steam launch owned
by E. Faber demanded $50 a day for the
use of the vessel to make a trip up the
Suwanee, where it was believed Cottrell
was hiding, when $10 a day, it ia said,
would have been a big price. After
Mitchell's release he was reinstated in
office ;|"so one may safely infer that the
policy of Mayor Cottrell has been fully
indorsed." Not one word appeared in
the newspaper published here (Cedar
Keys) in relation to the diffi
culties betweeu Cottrell and the
collector. "The attorney general
has been misinformed in the
matter of our searching dwellings un
lawfully. In every instance I asked per
mission, which I am pleased to say was
readily if not cheerfully given. 1 have
been religiously scrupulous on this
point, and Lieut. Corden will bear me
out in the fact that we were compli
mented upon several occasions for the
unostentatious and orderly manner of
conducting what we conceived to be a
most painful duty— but the rabble will
talk and bluster." The reports of Capt.
Smythe, of the McLaue, and J. H.
Pinkerton, collector at Cedar Keys,
agree with the reports that have been
published. Pinkerton says: "1 heard
that Cottrejl said that United States At
torney Stripling would not prosecute
him, as they were particular friends,
and I must say that Mr. Stripling dis
couraged my action in the matter, and
advised me to wait until Cottrell made
further demonstrations and then to take
p shotgun and shoot, him if he inter
fered."
BLOODTHIRSTY SAVAGES.
Northern Cheyenne Indians Mur
der a Settler.
Washington, June 6. —The secretary
of the treasury has received a telegram
corroborating the report that a white
man was recently murdered on the
Tongue River reservation, in Montana,
by the Northern Cheyenne Indians. The
settlers in that section are said to be in
a state of great alarm, fearing a general
uprising, and in order to prevent fur
ther bloodshed and to restore confidence
and a feeling of safety among the set
tlers, the secretary has requested the
war department to immediately dis
patch one or more companies
of cavalry to the reservation.
Reports received at the interior depart
ment show that a very unsatisfactory
state of affairs exists at the Green Bay,
Wis., agency. Mr. Kilsay, who was
some time ago nominated and confirmed
as agent of the Menominees at the
Green Bay agency, has not been per
mitted as yet to take charge of his of
fice. The Indians, It is said, are very
much opposed to a change of agents,
and to show their regard for the old
agent, and to prevent,^ if possible, his
being dispossessed, they nave made
such hostile demonstrations as to appar
ently intimidate the new agent, so tlrat
he is afraid to exercise his authority.
In order to bring the matter to a conclu
sion Secretary Noble has telegraphed
Kilsay to take charge of his office at
once or he would see that an agent was
appointed who would do so.

Yokohama, Japan, June 6.— Some
uneasiness prevails among foreigners
in the Japanese capital owing to devel
opments which have followed the mur
der of the Canadian misionary, the late
Rev. T. A. Large. The excitement oc
casioned by the news of the murder had
just died away when one of the
best known foreigners in the city
found himself a victim of circum
stances which compelled his departure;
and, following close upon that, another
missionary was set upon by a crowd of
students and seriously cut by knives.
On May 6, the Rev. James Summers,
for many years past proprietor of the
English school at Tokio and patron
zied by the nobility, was driving
in one of the principal thorough
fares of Tokio, with his wife, when the
carriage of the dowager empress,
mother of the present Mikado, ap
proached with a cavalry escort. When
a member of the royal family passes, it
is customary for people along the street
to uucover their heads, and Summers
reigned his horse into the side of
the street and halted. As the
carriage approached, he took off his hat.
Replacing it as soon as the carriage was
past him, one ot.the escorts in the rear
of the carriage noticed the hat and
brought his lance in line with it, so that,
by accident, the cavalryman struck Sunt
mers a severe
Blow on the Head.
The soldier was at once arrested and
court martialed. The native press im
mediately took up the matter, and much
feeling against the foreigners was man
ifested by the rough student element,
known as the Shosei, who were in
flamed by the report that Summers had
been guilty of an act of disrespect
towards the empress dowager. They
called repeatedly at his school and so
alarmed Summers that he left the
school in the hands of the police, and
left on the 16th instant by a steamer
for his home in England, leaving his
family in care of friends. The Shosei
are greatly excited and foreigners
are fearing serious outbreaks. Un
fortunately Mr. Summers is the same
man who about forty years ago caused
the death of the governor of Macao, in
China, by refusing to remove his hat
when a Corpus Christi procession was
passing. He was thrown into prison by
the Portuguese, was rescued by an
English admiral, and in the pend
ing excitement the Portuguese gov
ernor and one other person were
killed. On the 17th instant
the Japanese students of the Presby
terian school known as Meiji Gakuin,
started to play a game of base ball with
the students of the Koto Seigakko, a
preparatory school, and a feeder to the
Imperial university of Tokio. Rev.
G. W. Knox, the American mission
ary teacher in Meiji Gakuin, ac
companied the students from his
school. While the game was in progress
auother American missionary, Rev. W.
Imbrey, of New Jersey, a teacher in the
same school, went to the grounds and
stepped over a low hedge fence into the
field. He was
Set Upon by the Shosei
and beaten about the head and body,
and sustained severe injuries and knife
cuts about the head. No cause is given
for the attack. He will, however, re
cover. Less fear is shown by the Shosei
for the police, and the outcome
of the excitement is the topic
of general discussion. The Amer
ican squadron on the Asiatic
station has not had a vessel stationed
in Yokohama harbor since the flagship
Omaha left two months ago for Kobe,
at which port she is still stationed. The
Monocacy is in Chinese waters and the
Swatara is at Chemulpo, whither she
carried the family of United States
Alipister Herd. This vessel is expected
within a week at Nagasaki.

Suddenly the staging, upou which there

fell to the grouud. A shout of horror
went up from the crowd as the men
bounded from a projecting part of the

moment after they struck the ground
and lay quivering every one feared to.

EXTRADITION OF CRIMINALS.
England's Attitude Explained by
Secretary Matthews.
London, June 6. —An important
memorandum has been issued by the
home secretary, Henry Matthews, re
citing in detail the formalities necessary
to be observed in the prosecution of ex
tradition cases. While no especial rea
son is given for the issuance of the
notice, the general understanding is
that the efforts of Germany, France and
the other continental powers to induce
England to enter into an agreement to
deliver up fugitive anarchists and other
political offenders upon requisitions
nave called it forth as a partial explana
tion of Ens: land's attitude in the mat
ter, though the real cause of the re
luctance of the government to join in
the suppression of that obnoxious class
is not made plain.
TO GET INTO THE COURTS.
The Filibustering Scheme in
Sonora Is Denied.
City of Mexico, June 6.— lt is stated
on the streets here that a representative
of the Mexican Land and Colonization
company will proceed against a press
agency here for the publication of
a San Francisco dispatch in which
It was stated that the company was in
complicity with a scheme to throw the
peninsula of Lower California into the
hands of the British government. The
Mexican government apparently pays
little attention to filibustering stories,
but, nevertheless, makes certain that
precautions are taken and that
troops are ordered to localities con
venient to the frontier and the coast.
Emilio Velasco, attorney for the Mexi
can Land and Colonization company, to
day publishes a letter in the Monitor, a
Republican newspaper, in which he de
nounces the reports regarding the
alleged filibustering schemes of
that company against Lower
California. He says the affairs of the
company are controlled by honorable
men who are incapable of engaging in
such a conspiracy, and that San Diego
parties inimical to the company spread
the reports with the design of injuring
its prospects. The court martial which
is to try Lieut. Iturbide will meet on
Tuesday next.
