PARIS , July 2. All the newspapers of
( his city eulogize Emperor William's action
in ordering the release of Lieutenants Da-
cony and Malcvas , Ihc two French officers
who were convicted of spying upon the for
tifications of Kiel. The socialist organs
urge the French government to Imitate the
clemency of the German emperor and grant
amnesty to Its own political prisoners.
The outburst toward Germany may pave
the way for much belter feeling.
Germany , slnco her spat with England
over the Congo trcaly , has- been getting
more sympathy from France than for years
past and the murder of President Carnet
Kecrn ! ) to have Increased the bonds of
friendliness between the two nations.
It Is announced that the French govern
ment has annulled the order , Issued In April
last , suspending the stipend of the arch
bishop ot Lyons and all arrears will be
immediately paid. This , evidently , Is
another step toward conciliation with Rome.
The first step was taken yesterday , when
Mgr. Ferrata , papal nuncio , walked with
only a little silk skull cap on his head from
the Elyscc palace to the cathedral of Notre
Dame behind the remains of the late presi
dent of France.
Consequently , the regime ot President
Coslmlr-Perler opens , Ihe day after the
funeral of his predecessor , with Improved
relations with Germany and with the Vati
r can. The president's atlendanco nt Ihe funeral
- yesterday In defiance of precedent nnd
anarchy and In his admirable bearing through
out the ceremonies have captured the heart
of France.

LONDON. July 2. Howell Thomas , for
merly solicitor for Colonnn Jacques , who rep
resented Lawrence , the American claimant
of the Townlcy estates , was today sentenced
to five years penal sorvllude. Thomas has
been on trial for some lime pasl , charged
with obtaining money under false pretenses
and with forging documents In connection
. with Ihe case. The Judge , In Imposing sen-
tcnco , said he had no doubt that Colonnn
'Jacques ' had conspired with Thomas in order
to defraud people In America. The Townley
estate Is ono of the many schemes Into which
credulous Americans have been lured. Law
rence , the American , was convinced that he
was the rightful heir to the Townley es
tates , situated In Yorkshire , and thai Ihe
revenues of these estates had accumulated
in Ihe hands of Iho IJrltlsh government until
they amounted to about $70,000,000. With
the assistance ot Colonna Jacques , Lawrence
succeeded In raising $80,000 with which -to
push his claim. Thomas was employed as
collcllor for Colonna Jacques , representing
the claimant. He brought an action In chan
cery , which failed , and claimed he had ex
pended $60,000 In costs. Colonna Jacques
made an appllcallon Io compel Thomas Io
flle an account showing how Ihe money had
been expended. Thomas failed Io file the ac
count demanded , nnd the proceedings , , which
resulted In his sentence to Imprisonment ,
, weie then commenced.

In Captain John Buckley's boat to pull fur
ther over toward Ihe Iowa side on Iho
river. They did so and ran Inlo one of the
middle piers of Ihe bridge , upselllng the
boat nnd throwing the seventeen occupants
out. Fourteen of them fell Into the river

ATKINSON , Neb. , July 2. ( Special Tele
gram to The Dee. ) A report reached hero
this afternoon from the north part of the
county that Ralph Hills and son and another
man were lynched early yesterday morning
near Drusli Creek. It Is said they had been
arrested for arson and cattle rustling and
were taken from the officers by settlers and
hanged. Young Hills Is the party who
stabbed a man nt Naper , In lloyd county , n
couple of weeks ago.
The country along Urush creek and the
various other streams which run into the Nl-
obrara and the canons along that stream
have been since the flrsl sclllemcnt of Ihe
country the hiding place of cattle rustlers.
When Kid Wade and his gang were wiped
oul by Ihc lynching process Ihe business of
cattle rustling In thai section became un
popular , but of laic years U has been re
vived to some extent. During the past year
or so cattle men In Holt nnd adjoining coun
ties have suffered from their depredations
until they have become desperate.
The formation of the country Is such that
It Is extremely dllllctilt to trace the thieves
any distance , and still more difficult to run
them down and recover the stolen property.
The country Is so broken that It Is an easy
mailer for parlies familiar with It to ef
fectually conceal a considerable bunch of cat
tle.
tle.The
The fact that so many catlle have been
stolen In years past and the Ihleves escaped
renders U extremely likely that the story of
the lynching Is true , for the sentiment Is
ripe for such a move If any of the thieves
have been caught.

History or tlio \oliilloii ! In Honduras Told
by 11 , o i\llett : I'rrtUlriit.
NEW YORK , July 2. General Carlos
Ezeta , Ihe fugitive ex-president of Salvador ,
arrived here on the steamship Newport from
Colon , accompanied by his wlfo and four
children. The general expressed himself
freely on the revolution In Salvador and the
occurrences which led up to It.
"The revolution , " he said , "was duo di
rectly to Guatemalan Influence and was In
cited by a desire for revenge. Many na-
lives of Salvador emigrated to Nicaragua
after the troubles of 1890 and became sub-
scrvlent to Guatemalan Influence. Chief
among these were General Gulterrez , who
commanded a body of Salvador's troops In
that year. He was afterwards captured by
my brother , Antonio Ezeta , who wounded
him badly at the time. Instead of being
executed ho was allowed to escape and he ,
with Guatemalan help , started the revolu
tion. About G.OOO men were wounded and
2,000 were killed during the war. At the
battle of Santa Ana we lost 3,000 men After
this the revolutionists gained steadily In
Salvador. When we found luck was against
us I , with thirteen others , boarded the steam
ship Valeria. Then when we saw our causa
was lost we went to the city of Penama.
"The revolutionists would not have won
had they not been assisted by the Guate
malans and some Hondureans. My brother
Antonio did nol seek an asylum on Ihc
Rennlngton. Ho was picked up by the cruiser
while escaping In a sail boat. The American
officars thought he was lost. The charges
trumped up against him arc all false as well
as those which say I fled with many millions
of dollars. The trulh Is I spent nearly all
the available money during my three and n
half terms In paying the Salvador debts. I
paid $5,000,000 for foreign debls , $5,500,000
owed to citizens , $2,000,000 went for public
works , hospitals , railroads and similar Im
provements.
"I have no plans for the future and really
do not know what I shall do. "

CHAMHERLAIN , S. D. , July 2.-Speclnl (
to The Hee. ) Indian police have succeeded
In overhauling nnd stopping the Lower
Urule Sioux who left their reservation with
out permission from the Indian agent. Tnc
first party of Indians that started tiwny , re-
gurdless of the orders of the ngent that
they could not , headed south for Rosebud
ngency , ostensibly to visit with their
friends there until nfler the- Fourth of July ,
but In reality to strive to remain iherc , ns
many of the Lotocr Unite * Imvo always
expressed the desire to take up their resi
dence with thu Rosebud Indians. Spoiled
Horse , chief of the Lower Hrulc police , nnd
three of his men woiu sent In pursuil as
soon ns Ihe lllcht of the Indians was dis
covered , and while- engaged In this duty
performed n feat ot riding that entitles
them to n place In the list of foremost
long-distance riders of the weft , nnd which
will be the talk of Iho reservation for some
time to come. Sltotltd Horse has always
had Ihe reputation of being one of the
most tireless riders on the Sioux reserva
tion , but on Ihls occasion he broke -his past
records. To Intercept and return the stam
peding Indians It waa necessary to ildo
lint u Irlfle less thiin. ir.Q mile" , and Spotted
Horse nnd his three comradt-s traveled Ihls
instance without once stopping to rcsl or
feed their ponies.
On their return to HIP agency with Iheti
prisoners It was learned that still another
party of Lower Untlei hud stampeded nnd
were headed for the Ynnkton agency. After
u brief rest Spotted Hoise again sut out
with a force of Ills police Io ovoihaul and
capture them. This hu succeeded lirMoIng
on Ponca creek. In Ihe extreme southern
part of the slate nnd but a shoit distance
north of the Nebrn.'ka.llne. The runaways
are now under guard tit their own agency ,
pondering on the slrlctncss of the white
man's discipline. About 100 miles was the
distance traveled on this second expedition
after wandeilng Indians , making a total of
nboul 230 miles thU Spotted Horse and his

brief space of time. This Instance shows
the elllclency of the Indian policemen , nnd
that they will perform their duties reguul-

If tlic federated board of tlic railway
unions , which meets In Denver todny , votes
to sustain the boycott against I'tilliiinn cars ,
Omaha divisions Nos. 12 and 193 of tlic
American Railway union Will go out at once.
This Is the substance of the action taken
at n Joint meeting of the two unions which
was held In Knights of Labor hall last even
ing.
ing.Tho
The meeting called out n full attendance
of the local unions and the hall was filled
with members when President Miller of No.
12 called them to order. The unions re
mained In secret session for thrco hours
with the result mentioned above. The pro
ceedings were not made public beyond the
fact that n decision had been reached. It Is
said , however , that the action taken received
the Indorsement of a largo majority of the
members. After some discussion a com
mittee was appointed to draft a scries of
resolutions to be submitted to the meeting
for approval. Tlic resolutions , after stating
belief In the justice of the demands of the
union , declared In favor of deferring any
decisive action until after the meeting of
the federated board and then abiding by Its
action. It was further provided that a copy
of these resolutions bo sent to President
Debs nnd another to the federated board ,
with the request that the latter body should
at once notify the local union of Its de
cision.
There seemed to be but little doubt among
the members that the board would sustain
the boycott , nnd It was decisively stated
that In that event the Omaha unions would
strike nt once. That tlic meeting was re
garded In a serious light by the railroad
Interested was Indicated by the number of
railroad detectives who spent the evening In
the neighborhood of the hall. These were
regarded with suspicion by the men , how
ever , and every precaution was taken to
prevent them from obtaining any Informa
tion.
Yesterday was n day of great unpaslncss
among the ofilclals of the various railroads
terminating at Omaha , for not one of them
knew just what moment the employes might
decide to quit work or refuse to handle the
business of the yards.
WHERE THE TRAIN'S ARE.
The sum of the Information which Pres
ident Clark of the Union Pacific learned
yesterday outside the gcnciul situation on
eastern lines , was that Union Pacific No. 7
of June 30 , waj tied up nt Rawllns ; Nos. 1
imd 3 , consolidated , of the same date , were
dcad""at Laramle ; NOH. 3 and 7 of July 1 ,
consolidated , left Laramle last night at 5:30 :
eastbound , but with some doubt as to get
ting through without being stopped. No
trains have crrlvcd from Ogden since Sat
urday , and no freights are moving west of
Cheyenne.
Yesterday General Manager Dickinson Is-
eued a-general order to all the heads of dc-
'partments ' that , In1 view of the cessatlo"n"ln
business at.terminal paints , caused by the
strike , It would be expected that forces
should lie reduced In accordance , pending the
settlement of the strike.
Last night the uneasiness noticeable In
railroad circles had visibly Increased , nnd It
was generally agreed that the Omaha lines
would bo completely tied up by morning.
The local employes of the Chicago , St. Paul ,
Minneapolis & Omaha , being Informed of
the probability of n complete tie up , decided
last evening that If by reason of the tie up
they should be laid off pending
the settlement of the boycott , they
would Join the American Railway union tea
a man , but If the company continued them In
Its employ , notwithstanding they may not be
called upon to perform any work , they will
refrain from joining the union and remain
loyal to the company.
General Passenger Agent Lomax said that
the little business promised for the re
mainder of the year was completely knocked
In the head by reason of the boycott , which ,
he Intimated , was costing the railroads
$1,000,000 n day , and ho thought it would
cost Hie- companies $50,000,000 by the time
the boycott was ended.

It was the first official utterance from the

had been posted to discuss the situation.
Detwcon Omaha and St. Louis the Wabash
continues to operate trains , but there Is n
very effectual blockade at St. Louts and ono
that promises to last for several days , ac
cording to Wabash olllclals at this point.
Little dlfilculty Is being experienced by the
Northwestern out of Omaha , trains Nos. 1
and 6 arriving on time. This practically
tells the situation on the Milwaukee , although
trains are a trifle late on this line , due to
detention In Chicago , all the block tenders
along Western avenue having been bodily
fired out of their plaecs , which necessitates
slow running through the city.
General Manager Huldrege Kald that the
nurllngton was not suffering , but didn't know
how soon It would.
The Missouri Pacific Is running Its local
trains and shipping freight via Relmonl , but
there h some doubt whether they will be
able to get through trains Into St. Louis.
At Z o'clock ycstciday General
Agent Nash of the Milwaukee re
ceived the following telegram from
General Superintendent W. A. Collins :
"Thu general grievance committee of the
St. Paul system met today and unanimously
refused to declare a strike on this system. "
The Rock Island officials stole a inarch on
the men nt Council Uluffa and prevented
the strike which was announced for yes
terday from malerlallz ng by laying off
nearly all the men. In place of three
switching crews only one was working at
the hour sel for the strike and that wan
composed of noiuympathlzers. At the
round house only two men were employed
In place of live and they too were nonunion
men. All others had been given notice of
an Indefinite lay off. The clerks In the
freight ofilce were also let out at noon.
Thu employes believe that this Is done by
the olllclals to prevent what they feared
would bo a walkout.
It Is rumored that the officials are hiring n
new force of men and that as soon as the
plan la completed an attempt will bo made
to start running trains again.
HOW THE ROCK ISLAND STANDS.
No trains are coming Into the muffs from
the cast on the Rock Island , and the only
passenger train from the west tint has
come In for forty-eight hour * Is the Denver
limited , duo there at 0 o'clock. This Is no
longer n Denver limited , but Is made up In
western Nebraska , It runs no farther than
Stuart , 100 miles cast of Council Bluffs.
Freight Agent Dcnton used a good deal
of forcible rhetoric yentcrday In denying the
assertion that n strike had been ordered for
6 o'clock yesterday morning. From the of
ficers of the local American Railway union ,
however , It Is learned that the order for
the strike had been received from President
Debs nnd uould undoubtedly have been put
Into effect had not the railway company
been to disabled as to let the men out of
Us own accord. Mr. Dcnton claims Out the
men have not even been discharged , but
merely laid off , nnd ho nlso nays that those
who were laid off for want of anything toile
ilo will be put hack today , while the few
who worked yesterday will be given their
share of the general rest this morning.
Grand Muster Workman J. R. Sovereign of
the Knights of Libor telegraphed President
C. II. Warren of the loc.il branch of the

SIOUX CITY , July 2. Special Telegram
to The lice. ) The strike today extended to
the Milwaukee and Illinois Central. Train
men nnd firemen abandoned their trains ns
fast as they came In and all switchmen
struck on the Milwaukee. On the Illinois
Central the strike Is confined to the switch
men , but the result has been n complete tie-
up of all freight trains on both roads.
At 7 o'clock this morning the firemen
Joined the strike on the Chicago , St. Paul ,
Minneapolis & Omnhn. One passenger went
out over the Omaha today. A "scab" crew-
has been trying all day to gel n pasetnger out
over the Nebraska division of the Ornalin.
The strikers have spiked switches and pre
vented It going. A force of deputies sur
rounded section men who undertook to draw
the spikes. The mob crowded In on them
nnd carried the deputies away and the
switches were resplked before n train coud !
cross them. A "scab" conductor who went
off his train to turn n switch was hooted
and stoned and driven out of the yard.
The strikers will ask the city council to
demand the resignation of Chief of Police
Young , who ilied n freight engine out yes
terday.
The Omaha company wants Sheriff Daven
port to call on the governor for mllltla to
aid It In moving passenger trains. He says
no property has been destroyed nnd declines
to do EO until the crowds get to rioting.
Wholesale business and business In the
packing houses and stock yards here Is par
alyzed as n result of the strike.
A mob 3,000 strong gathered nt the tracks
tonight and stopped the Illinois Central
mall nnd express as It left the Terminal
company's depct. They spiked switches and
derailed box car ? across the track. A force
of deputies attempted to clear the tracks ,
but were driven back by the mob. The
strikers demanded that the Pullmans be
taken off. The company olllclals refused
and the train was abandoned. The terminal
tracks ere In the custody ef Receiver Hough
of the United States court , and the court
will bo appealed to fcr protect on.
The Omaha tracks are also spiked and
blocked to prevent the passage of the St.
Paul express at 9:40 : , with three Pullmaiu at
tached. The sheriff and.police , are unable
to cope with the mob , and It Is probable tha
governor will bo asked to send-milltla here
tomorrow
At 11 o'clock a crowd of several thousand
people Is still collected along the tracks
leading to the Union depot. A mob cut off
three Pullman cars from the Kansas City
train on the Chicago , St. Paul , Minneapolis
& Omaha tonight , and pushed them toward
the river. Many of the passengers were
women and children , who screamed with
terror , but the cars were finally left on a
stdo track near the packing houses. The
mob is entirely beyond control , nnd Sheriff
Davenport tonight called upon Colonel Foster
for companies II and I , and has telegraphed
the governor for the entire Fourth regiment.
The deputy sheriffs are powerless , and are
not attempting tonight to do anything with
the mob , which Is In full possession of the
switch yards nnd tracks. The tracks arc
being spiked down and nothing can be done
till the military takes a hand , which will
doubtless be tomorrow.

this morning. The destination Is not known

CHICAGO , July 2. Today's developments
In Ihc great Piillman-Amcrk'an Railway
union strike have been prolific In sensation
alism , the principal theater of action being
In Chicago and adjacent suburbs. Wild
rumors were rife when It was announced
thai orders had been Ibsued for the Second
regiment to proceed at once to Blue Island ,
eighteen miles out. Exlra editions ot all
evening papers , with warlike headlines ,
were eagerly scanned by thousands of anx
ious people. The rcporl proved lulcr to bo
unfounded. The first serious clash occurred
today when 200 deputy United States mar
shals were surrounded at Illtio Island by
2,000 strikers , who openly defied federal au
thority. Weapons were drawn on both sides
and Deputy Marshal John A. Logan was
painfully cut with n knife , but when a
bloody conflict teemed Imminent the deputies
retired to the barrack cars to await rein
forcements , leaving the strikers masters ot
the situation.
This evening nn Injunction from the United
States court wns rend and bulletined. The
authority of the Unllcd States was openly
defied and after a few minutes quiet tha
riotous spirll of the strikers reasserted Itself.
At midnight reporls of other disorders were
current , U being slated thai Ihe strikers
were tearing down the bulletin mandate ot
Ihe couit. Fearing to precipitate bloodshed
the Rock Island decided after Its 5:30 : ex
press had been gotten through not to make
any effort to move trains tonight , but to
morrow can hardly , I'full ' to bring n crlsl-/ i
The strikers have now locked horns with
the state and federal authorities.
The railroad officials nro chafing under the
continued embargo on business , and tha
desperate condition of their late employes ,
determined not to . york- themselves nor to
allow others to do KO , Is evidenced by the
flood of reports of Individual conflicts hero
and thera coming from all over Ihc city.
A number of trains have been derailed by
misplaced switches. A Panhandle passen
ger was partly ditched at Klnzle and Canal
streets tonight , but was not seriously de
layed. The strikers are stealing brassss
from the axle boxes ot cars , nnd In some
Instances dropping coupling pins Into the
cross head guides of the locomotives , causing
the destruction of cylinder heads. Tana
of fruit , vegetables , Ice , meats nnd other
perishable goods stand in Iho cars under a
broiling Kim , no one caring or daring to
move It to Its destination. Dumb animals ,
crowded Inlo slock cars , suffer thirst and
hunger , and prices of vegetables and fruits
arc going up.
WAITING FOR DAYLIGHT.
It Is thought no move likely to precipitate ,
hostilities will be made before daylfghl. At
midnight District Attorney Mllchrlst , when
asked If troops had yet been ordered out
from Fort Sheridan , said : "I do nol think ( , j
they would be called oul until Ihe order of *
the courts has been violated and the judges 4
recommend such n measure being4 taken jj
to uphold the dignity of the court and Jus
tice. Unless the trouble Is brought to an
end soon , It Is my opinion the strike will
terminate In bloodshed. "
The firemen of the Lake Shore elevated
road decided after midnight thai they would
strike to assist the American Railway
union. The specific cause of the strike Is .1
that the elevated road received some coal 4
delivered by the Panhandle , boycolted by
Die American Railway union.
Two thousand strikers at Blua
Island today overcame 200 deputy
sheriffs and marshal. The latter gave up
the unequal battle and called for stale and
federal aid. Telegrams were bent to United
States District Atlorney .Mllchrlst and Sheriff
Gilbert asking that the Fftcenth regiment , ,
U. S. A. ( regulars ) , from Fort Sheridan and
the mllltla bo sent to clear the blockade and
preverve order. The telegrams were sent
after Iho force at the yards had been beaten
In an attempt to clear the way for the mall
trains. About 2,000 strikers gathered around
the cars and effectually stopped any attempt ,
to move trains.
Marshal Arnold and Deputy Lclbrant , In
charge ot the sheriffs , conferred and decided
that they must have aid In order to make
any headway. Their conference resulted In
the transmission of thcso telegrams :
United States District Attorney Mllchrlst ,
Chicago : Wire secretary of war mob ot
2.100 men here. We nre unable to Imndla <
them. Ask him to send the Fifteenth regi
ment from Fort Sheridan. Answer.
MARSHAL ARNOLD.
Sheriff Gilbert , Chicago : Mob of 2,000.
We are unable to cope with them. Better
nsk the governor to sen aid at once.
FIIED LEIUUANDT.
General Supirlnlcndent Dunlap , Assistant
Nichols and Roadmastcr Conlln were In
charge of the forces for the road. The
first move was toward clearing Iho dummy
trucks that had been filled with passenger
trains. Officers of the road went Into con
ference with Mayor Haclmrlas of Blue
Island considering details of raising the
blockade Around the tracks and cars a
large crowd of strikers gathered.
Tlio bituatlon along the tracks quickly
threatened to become dangerous. Attempts
on the part of the railway officials to move
Irdlns were combated by determined re-
slKlancc. The strikers formed across tha
tracks and tried to place themselves In * .
position that would result In Injury to themselves - ; '
selves should the train bo moved.
STRIKERS STOOD THEIR GROUND.
About 100 murshalo and deputy sheriffs
lined the tracks , but the Ftrlkers would not
move. Deputy Marshal Logan jumped from
a cur and Miirud to drlveu stubbotn striker
from the tracks. For a time Ihe conflict was
general. Revolvers were displayed on both
bides , but shots were not fired. The strikers
succeeded In stopping thu movement ot the . , . ' ,
trains.
About noon the train of passenger cars on .
the dummy track was madu up and started j
out ot the yards. Stones were thrown by 1
the strikers , knlvos were drawn nnd the
deputies on the train showed their revolvers.
The strikers kn hemmed In the train and
yards thai II became Impossible to move
the train a Miorl distance through the
yard * . Village Police Officer Michael Lar
son added to the confusion by jumping on
the engine and trying to nrrest the engineer
for violating a town ordinance forbidding
trains to block eroultiBS for more than flva
minutes. The d puty marshals threw tha
nollcoman from the train ,
Hy this tlmo the mob had become so
boutrrnus that the attempt to move the train
wus abandoned and the ofllcora retired U
