NO MATKHl \L CHANGE Wbat a Review ol the Prlnc’pal Markets Discloses New York, March 7.—K. G Dan A Oa.’s weekly review of trade save: Toe state of trade bat not materially altered dnriog tbe past week, though the things of weather has produced much temporary improvement in some lines acd in others trade is ratbtr less satisfactory than a week ago. The interior momy markets are gem rally steady, bnt on tbe whole, rather more easy. Woolen manufactures do not appear to have changed much in condition or pros pects, though better salts of heavy weights are noted a* Boston, while lighter good* are quist. Bales of wool are larger, and it ia tuougbt bottom his b*en touched, but prices are depressed at Poiladelphia, acd the early expectation of new »ad large supplies leads holders to make cmoteeiuBS. In the iron trade, also, the situation has sot mate'ially improved, and at Pittsburg prices are maktag lower. Tue window glass trade is active and a fourth advance in prices within three months has been or dered, but dint glass works at Pittebnrg are curtailing pioductiou. The coal trade is no: better, acd entirely in buyers’ favor. PROSPECTIVE PROPERTY. rh, Slun Kninlly Um Hope* ol Collective •300,000,000.

For som" time the whit* resi dent* of the Flathead Lake reg on have en ter’a ned fears that the renegade Indians of Chief Igoace’s tribe would can** trouble, and within the last lew weeks these fears have been strengthened.

Louisiana Lottery Mon Talk Bus iness to Dakota Legislators. A PROFOUND SENSATION CREATED ' Bv & Utter Written by Attorney General Goodwin. SOME RACY FACTS AND FIGURES. Lottery Men Who Are Planking Down Big Piles of Cash for Individual Votes. What Goodwin Calls the Most Infamous Scheme Known. _ Bismaeck, N. D., March 7.—Ia the Legislature yeeterday Rvpreeeutative Ste vens cent to the clerk’* deek and bad read * private let'er of Attorney Goodwin, which baa created a profound peusa'.ion in ; all quarters. After some explanations and statements about appointments at Washington, it conliuues at follows: “Now I will give yon the outline of one of the most damnable acd infamous schemes that ever disgraced any Legisla ture The scheme, in brief, is to ltgaliz* the transfer and reincorporation in North Dakota cf the Louisiana State Lottery. Rumors of the scheme have been ti >atiug around for some time past, bnt it baa now ASSUMED DEFINITE SHAPE, and the patrons are working openly for it Oor friends secured a copy of the bill, jut! lo look at it for a few minutes, and 1 had Mi-a Caddiug take it in abort-hand. Ic is a slick hill, carefully and shrewdly drawn, and upon its face looks like a God-oend to the State. It proposes to be run in tbe in terest of the Siate, paving into the 8tat« treasury from (75,000 to (150,000 a year, in time furnishing revenue enough to run tbe State gavernment acd buy all tbe red wheat and snppliee for tbe destitute in the State beside*. I will inclose yon a copy of tbe bill, and you can then see tbe scheme. “It is simp'y astonishing to see tbe men that are fallingtnto tb" arrangement—men whom von would never think of doing such a thing. I understand all tbe Rineom connty members are favoring it at present; but Steve is holding off for more money— be is blnfficg for a cool (10,000; don’t think be can COMMAND THAT AMOUNT unless it gets pretty close, ami then tbe last man can command any figure. There ia millious in it, and the boodle ia here j They guarantee the stock to pay 100 cents !>n the dollar, and Senator* who have in tlaence have been promieed (10,000 in i stock. They think they have nearly votes enough, hat want to be sure of two-thirds, I as they expect, of course, to have to pass it over tbe Governor's veto. It was in ■ tended to in trod ace it yesterday, bnt was ! postponed till to-morrow, when it will go , :n if they feel safe on the votes. They are paying from (200 to (500 cash down, and agree to doable when the bill beomes a law. ‘ It is said by those on the inside that this monstrous swindle antedates the State ( Convention at Fargo; that Senator Spen \ cer, Alexander McKcczie, Jud La Monre, Walsh Haggart and a few more of tbe ' leaders of the ‘old gang’ bad this all planned, and that Harrison Allen pledged to help carry it ont. Their defeat there SCOTCHED THE SNAKE, and now this is the last desperate attempt to control the politics of this new State. Of coarse, if successful, the Louisiana Lit tery weald own the Sta'e and control and dictate its political fatnre. It is a scheme worthy of the men who are back of it, they propose to role or rnin the Republi can party; they are usiDg this as a clnb over the members epposed to them, and threaten to allow no legislation in go tbrongh nntil tbe bill passes. This is to he the bob around which emst revolve all the legislation of tbe session. "Tbe financial condition of tbe State is the great indneoment to foster tbe scheme. Many of the farmer members, while they admit that it is a questionable morality, yet think the Slate would bs jnstifitd in adopting this means to make the whole people happy and wealthy; with few ex ceptions, the press ia securely muzzled, so that no adverse criticism will get into the newspapers nntil it is too late. George Wtoship has b«en approached with all sorts of seductive inducements, bnt with out avail; they proposed to give him (10, 000 of tbe stock and make the paper furn ish him all the lottery printing. Some of THE PROMINENT CITIZEN* of the Grand Forks are kicking Winship because he is standing in the way of that city receiving tbe location of this benifi cent institution. Rome cf tbe leading hankers in tbe State sre in the echeme; in fact, it is hard at this writing to tell where its ramifications end. It '8 tbe moat seductive and corrupting thing that has been tried for maay years. "It ia paid that the chsrtfr of the Louisiana 8tate Lottery expires in 1802, and the public sentiment of that corrupt State has reached the point that will not allow it to be extended and they have seized upon the financial condition of North Dakota to aid them in fastening j ,ta hligbtening corse npon the fair fame of ♦bis new S ate. The very boldness of the scheme gives it temporary strength. A j cuefnl canvas is being made of the Senate and House to secure enough plsoged to vote who can neither be booght, bull dizid, flattered nor cajoled into voting to pass it over the Governor’s veto and then j wait and let the backers of THE ROTTEN SCHEME introduce i« and put themselves on record, and then flood the* State with protests, letters and telegrams to aronse the sleep ing lion of public sentiment and bnry tbe reckless movers of this damnable and in- [ famous outrage so deep that they can never raise tbeir heads in the politics of the 8ta'e. “We don’t want to make any move now for fear they will weaken befoie they are put on record by introdociog the bill, and then claim they never intended to pass it j at all. Yon can talk with Knee ard \ an \ht, hot don’t make it public until I send you word. You writ* it np in good shape t’:om this outline I have given yon, filling in tbe sensational.detail* and have it ready for publication next Friday, and if the thing reaches a head before that time 1 will wire yon‘Sat np stoves.’” The letter doses with some remarks abcnt county matters and is signed, | j “George F. Goodwin.” Tbe sensations of Attorney General Goodwin’s letter are still ite talk of the Capital Otty and the feeling in the matter was aggravated by a sensational outcome of the publication of the letter. This was a personal eeconnter in which Attorney General Goodwin was a passive party and Representative Georgs Walsh ths assail ant and it resnl'ed in the pollmg of the Attorney General’s rose by tbe General from Grand Forks. The cause of tbe irooble is that fact is Mr. Goodwin a let ,er in which Mr. Walsh is mentioned “ one of the men who planned the lot ery scheme. _ Pack Closes Ira l>oors. 8as Francisco, March 7.—The private hanking firm of Belloc Freres made an as signment to the sheiiff to-day, and closed its doors The sheriff states that the lia bilit es far as known now will amount to half a million dollars.

The day was ush ered in by a clear, cold morning, the ther mometer indicating tbrea degree# above zero. The earth was covered with anew, which had fallen the night and day be fore. Kampf was the same imperturbable man that he has been since his ftrreet and sentence. He retired at the uhusI hoar last night, and slept calmly until early morning when he arose and after breakfaet prepared his toilet. He had been fam ished a neat black enit which he donned and expressed himself as being well pleased with it.

Kampf complained that the rope was tco tight and it was loosened. The black cap was drawn. Andjastoce minuteafier eleven o’clock the trap was eprang. At the end cf ten minutes, according to what Dr. Barbour says, the heart was still beatieg, bat in twi’minntes more life was declared ex tinct, bot the body was to bang half bd bear. Notwithstanding he was choked to death he did not make a straggle or move a muscle. Just before the black cap was drawn and when be was bidding farewell to all tears came to his eyes and trickled down his cheeks. He made no talk on the (scaf fold bnt just before leaving tfcejail. be said that when he committed the awful deed he was very angry. At the expira tion ol the half hour the body was taken down and placed in a neat a fUa and ttken to the Catholic church, where a requiem was said, thence to the cemetery for inter ment. With this execution, the Kampf fam ily is WIPED OUT OF BX ISTKNl E, as the murderer bs» no relatives in Ibis country. Sheriff Pickens, who has ell along forbidden any newspaper men to talk to him about the banging or go abont tbe jail, maintained bia determination not to recogo zitbe press until tbe last. An accident happened after the body had bung for ten minutes by tbe floor of the ecafl'old giving away Bnd throwing ten of tbe t fficers, witnesses and doctors to tbe ground, a distance cf seven feet. As the men fell several struck against the body of Kampf and swnrg it back and forth like a N>ll clapper. For several weeks past Pickens has re fosed to say where the scaffold was to be erected, and, In order to prevent newspa pers from fiodingout anything abont it, he had it erected abont 5 o’clock this morn ing, and as it was very cold, it is believed that tbe carpenters became chilled in pot ting it together and failed to make the floor as strong as it should have been. Pickens’ determination to keep the affair a secret failed, and tbe ba-dy manner in which the machine was put op goes largely to account for tbe accident. There was a large crowd in tbe city, bnt perfect order was maintained. Kampf died in full be lief, as he said, that be wovld go to heaven. STORY OF THE CRIME The crime for which Kampf scfftred death to day was the ro order of hia daugh ter Mary, eged JO years, and his eon Wil liam, whi was a’ year ycutger. Their mother bad teen dead etverel years and the father was 60 brutat and disagreeable that tbe children left tbrir borne, which was bnt little better than a hovel, and went to honse keeping in a cabin about half a milk from the home of 'heir father. On the evening of Odober 4, 18-19, Kampf, wbo bad been working for a farmer near by, returned to bis home aud found that a .,et of smoothing irons bed been Uien from hie house. Ue «me to the conclusion that hia dangh.er ba taken them and he went over to her honse immediately, taking with him a dirk knife, which be had carried for years. H* accused tbe girl of stealing tbe irons, bat sbe denied it, and, as be says, “called him a liar and made at him with a hatchet ” Be drew his knife and cot two frightful gaslits iu her abdomen. Her brother, who was lying on a bed, jumped np to save hie sister, but the father’s de»d1y knife was driven into tbe cot's stomach, after which the inhuman parent COOLLY WIPED THE BLOOD from his weaoon ard went home and re tired for the night, where he was arrested about two hours after his bloody deed. Both children died within twenty-fonr hours. Ksmpf was born at Offenburg, Baden, Germany, in 1825, and when quite a young man had a difficolty with a tnau, whom be cut severely, for which he did two yeare’ lime. He was afterwards suspected of having murdered his employer in a wine cellar, who was found under raiher sus picious circumetaucee with bis neck broken, but as there was no evidence against Karnpf he was not arrested. In this coon try 1 e has h«>en cocsidered a quiet, though dangerous, man when angry. Hie intelli gence was below the average, and heepoks HIS NATIVE LANGUAGE with much difficulty, even Oermaus being beiog almost unable to nndeietand him. It was with d'fficnlty that he could be made to understand that tbe jury bad found 1 irn guilty ct murder and tbat Judge Guthrie bad sentenced him to be hanged Hie last days were spent preparing himself for a happier life. R-v. Father Sirnger, of the Catholic church if this city, was hie spiritual advLer, and says tlmt Kampf often epoks feelingly of his children whom be hoped had gone to Heaven. This is the first legal hanging in Kauawha coun ty since the formation of West Virginia, and the third within tho bietiry of tbe (Onniy. The fitst legal banging was that of a ne gro named Ue), otbewia* known ae Lewis, who was executed by Deputy Sheriff Jor dan T. Loyd for committing rape npon a • bite girl named Skyten. He was tried by the Giunty Court, Dr. 8. Patrick, Judge, found guilty, and sentenced Jaly 16, 1850, to be hanged Aogost 30,1850, on which day he was executed according to sentence. In those days of slavery all ne irroea WHO COMMITTED CRIMES were tried by the County Court. The Skyles girl grew to womanhood and mar tied Tom Lie, who was murdered on Campbell’* creek bridge, December 24, 1875, by Eatep and Dawasnn, who were lynched by a mob about nos year later. They were barged from a b.-nm of the bridge where L?e watt cut to pieoett with knives. The woman is now eaid to be liv ing with a negro man noar this city. The second was that of Rev. Press T. Tarley, who murdered his wife en Coal liver. After the murder, Tarlty tied n rope about hie wife’s body and attached a large stone to it and sank the corpse in a deep pool in Coal river some distance above 9L Albare. His w le was missed and ueigbbors snspected foul p'ey, and after a long search they found her body by drag ging the river. Turley was arrested and TRIED BEFORE JUDGE SUMMERS, of the Ciicnit Court, and sentenced to be barged September 17, 185H. Sheriff John Slatk. Sr., who is still living, performing the execution. A brother of Tarley’* was n member of thejary which found Kampf gailly.___ LITTLE TOO HL'BlfcQUENT. \ Dental of the Story About the LeverUg Murder Mystery.

I FRACTIOUS TARS Create a Lbely Scene on an English Craft. HUT1HY CAUSED BY POOR FOOD. Two Sailors Shot and tha Captain Put in Irons. THE MEH COULDH’T EAT BAD PORK. Upon Arriving in Port tha Mutinears Were Arrested-Story of the Doings on Board Ship — Some Ex citing Scenes. NiwYobk, March 7.—A story of mu tiny is told by Capt. Wm. Pratley, of the ehip Biela, which arrived in port yesterday from Kio Janeiro. The disturbance was on tbe R’ina, an English ehip, irora Calcutta, which pnt into It o, commanded by tbesccmd mate and with Dine sailors before the mast. Tbe captain, first mite and three eatlore were in irono. “Tbe mutiny on the Reina was an excit icg affair,” said Capt. Pratley. “Several days out from Calcutta some bad pjik was given the eailois, and daring tbe night nine rf them matinied. When they com plained of tbo poor food, the Captain treated them harshly and said he would starve them into mbmission. Tbe men who rebelled armed them selves with pistols ard old swords, and beaded by tbe second mate, commanded th-s Captain to give them the key to the store room. Tbis tha CapUin refused to do, end he summoned to bis aid the first mate and five seamen. They, tco, armed themselves, but they only could find two p'SkOls and a run-ket. “Tne tight was evidently of short dura tion, for two of the sailors who stood by the captain were shot down. The ciptaiu, first mate and three sailors were pat in irons by tbe mutineers, who, b/ the aid of the secoud mate, brought tbe ship to Kio. Tue Britieb Consol was info iutd ui toe facts and a naval court cinvened, which sent the mutineers to jail for an iodtfinite term. They will probably ba shipped to England at some fature day. IT WAS LATH, BUT UOUD. Chauuorj Black's Letter to the Brooklyn Democratic Cluli New Yobk, Match 7.—Th9 following letter from the Hon. Cbauucey F. Blsck, of York, Pa., President of the National League of Democratic Globe, was received too late to ba read at tbs ballot and elec toral reform meeting of the Youeg Men’s Democratic Club of Brooklyn, Monday evening: York, Pa., February 28, 1890. My Dear Sib: I have jaet received yonr letter relative to the work done an i proposed to be done hy the Young Men’s Democratic Olnb of Brooklyn toward the achievement of genuine ballot reform. I agree with you and with the club, that a real and complete reform is impossible without the exclusive official ballot. Pereoually, and alter very serious n flee tioD, I am convinced that tbe Australian svetem, specifically and explicitly, without txcisiuus or additions, is the measure for which every ballot reformer should aleal ily and uncompromisingly contend, and they should contend for it, not merely un til they have compelled opponents to meet them half way, but until they get it—ntraight, complete, en tire. Tried long and severely, not only in Australia, but in England, and now •gam in America there is no question re maining of its perfect ad,qoacy. It will produce pure aod free elections, and, so far as we know, nothing else will in conntries, where corrupt political machines aad great monrpoliee, in parlnersb'p with government, stand ready to bribe and ter rorize. ‘ Id Pennsylvania the Australian ballot cannot be bad, because our Constitution requires the ballots to be numbered by election officers, but such is the force of public opinion in this State in favor of tbe Australian ballot, unimpaired by subtrac tion or addition, that maoy cf our peo ple are even now seriously consider ing the wisdom of calling a constitu tional convention for tbe sole purpose of placing it in the Constitution itself, be yond the chances of ordinary politics, aod above the teach of partisan legislatures. “I wish the Young Man’s Democratic Glub of Brooklyn speed and eucceew in its timely and patriotic undertaking. And 1 remain, “Very truly youts Chauncey F. Black.” A TKLKl'IIONE MUDDLE. Very S ngultr 8'ate of Aflit'M In Pitt* barge Piatsbcru, Pa., March 7.—For some time past tbe residents of this city from Fifth avenue to Hsz-lwood, three miles out, have been amezid aud annoyed hy the queer freaks cf their usually well be haved telephones. Nobody cered very much when the mixtore only involved a business man giving tbe priceof a favorite gas stock and being answered by aseivaat gill to tbe effect that it was quite too high for onions and quite too low for spring lamb. Affairs came to a climax today, however, wben scores of telephones rang as steadily as a business muo does for Central, and when an innocent party attempted to answer, a ball of electricity would usually prarce around tbe machine for a moment end then explode with shocking results Ex perts toy d with the phenomena for hours, steadily getting the worst of it, wbeo one lucky man imagined he heard the bated riog of a car conductor’s pouch on a phone.

EDWAKD BALTZ, (Butcher, ’ La Fayette Market, Baltimore, Md. CITY AFFAIR'*. i A Number of Important Commlttcm M««t lrg« Held. The members of the Ooiucil Committee on Ksilrosde met st 3 p m. yteterdny, usd sallied forth to view the various places for which railroad privilege* have bt*n asked. They were accompanied in their official peregrinations by City Solicitor White and City Engineer Hoge, and the entile com bination thnb formed spent several Loan in an entertaining jaunt about the city. The first place visited was the corner of Main and Sixtiestb, where Simon Baer’s Sana ark the privilege of laying down a switch. Thence the committee examined the Wheeling Ioe Comp»uy’s proposed switch, the Warwick pottery and the Scbmnlhach brewing switches. They de fered the visit to the Fulton road for a fa tare meeting. The coi-wit tee adjourned to meet on Monday nigbt. From the general sentiment of the mem bers it was gathered that Meeers. Baer's application tor a switch starting from the west side of Main would probably be fa vorably coasidertd if it could be so ar ranged that the frog would not be in the middle of the street. Toe complaint of the Wheeling Ice Company that the ordi nance granting it a switch on Alley 19 was impracticable did not meet with great favor. At the Warwick awitch the people were oat ia force and made strong protests. Farther complaints will be heaid on Mon day night if any wish to make them. There will probably be a compromise on the Schmnibach switch, the Company agreeing cot to ran bo far north as it now does. There will be little difficulty in the committee reaching a conclusion on any of the propositions before it. Heal Estate tomn.lttte.
