An Appeal to Uncle Sam.
Philadelphia, Pa., Jan: 17. the ex
ecutive committee of the Indian rights
assxiiation met here yesterday and for
jnulated and adopted an appeal to tlx
country in behalf of the Indians. Thi
appeal reviews the work that has beei
done among the Indians by the variout
denominational bodies and the cause
of the preeent uprising among them. I
declares that the most important requi
site is a single, responsible, competeui
bead for the Indian affairs, who glial
reoort to the Dre3idenc directly. Tht
Indian service should be wholly fre.
from the interferenc of partisan po i
tics, which shall continue its policy "Uu
disturbed by changing admiristrations
The appeal also reccomends that arm
officers be detailed to serve as Indiai
agents, and that sufficient money b
appropriated by congress to permi
the education of all Indian youths an
the maintenance of a thoroughly effei
tive service.
Sued for Breach of Promise.
Chicago, Jan 15. Robert Davis, for
merly premier of Manitoba, was suet
for $100,000 damaged for breach cf pro
mise by Mrs. Matilda Burns, a formei
domestic in Davis' Winnigeg householt
and now the wife of a a hotel keepe
near St.. Paul. Davis is now in the rea
estate business in Chicago. Ilia atlor
ney denies that he is the father, of thi
plaintiff's child and declares that ther
is no foundation for the suit. Mi
Burns also sues Davis for libel, tb
grounds being a letter said to have beei
written by Davis accusing her of inti
oelity. The alleged offenses on Davi
part are mentioned as occurring ten o
twelve years ago, aod his attorns
tbiaks it strange th t the matter w
allowed to i est so long.
In Buln I Iticulty.
New yobk, Jan. 10. The sheriff bv
levied upon th ) office furniture of th.
United electric traction company,' at
175 Broadway. The factory is at Mariot
N. J. Thl.j attachments have uee:
entered against the company aggregat
ing about 11,600, and there is a jui'p
meat for t80 against it The tot;'
amount of the unsecured indebted ne s
of the company ia reported to be $150,
000, and it is claimed that the com pan
has very large assets. Mr. Le Daft ha
brought suit against the company, th.
Daft electric light company and other:
;o recover $50,000, and to set aside i
contract for the exchange of '.he ptcc
of the Daft company for that of th
United electric traction company, and
to recover property belonging to the
Daft company from the United electrii'
traction company. . , : .
Officials of the company claim tha
the finances are being materially streng
thened, but admit that in conse
quences of the tight money market they
have asked somo indulgence of their
creditors.
The United electric traction company
was incorporated ia March, 1890, under
New Jersey law, with an authorized
capita! stock of 17,000.000. The com
pany was mainly organized through
Robert Lennox Belknap, formei iy treas
urer of the Northern Pacific railroad
and Dr. John O. Baron, who, it is said,
invested a large amount of money in it.
It ia said that $1,000,100 of the preferred
stock was issued for cash, a large part
of which waa used in paying off the
debts of the companies whose liabilities
wan assumed, leaving the company
about $300,000 working capital. The
business of equipping electric railways
tied up a Rood deal of money end col
lections have bean poor.

Governor Boyd' AppointmeaU.
Matters at the state capital assum
ed quite a comical aspect Friday. The
serious and almost appalling scenes of
Wednesday and Thursday have been
followed by a refreshing and reassuring
calm, and the chief interest now cenVers
in the laughable farce which is being
enacted by ex-Governor Thayer. The
old gentleman held onto the executive
chamber ail dav, which was closely
guarded by police, and Gov. Boyd took
Hp quarters in another room on the
same floor of the capitol. Gov. Bayd is
recognized by all of the state officers,
receives the mail directed to the execu
tive, and is in full exercise of the powers
of the office. ;
The legislature, however, did not reo
ognize him yesterday.
A resolution was offered in the House
to appoint a committee of two to wait
upon the governor and inform him that
the House was ready to receive his
message, but Church Howe suggested
that it might be well to determine who
was meant by "Governor." A member
from Omaha moved an amendment in
sei ting the name of Boyd, and au inde
pendent memoer moved to insert
Thayer's nains The whole matter was
then laid upon the table, and the bouse
did not recojniza any person as gov
ernor of Nebraska.
The board of public lands and build
ings decided to make the rooms occu
pied by the board of transportation tho
gubernatorial suite of offices, and an
official order to that effect was made.
Secretary Gilchrist of the board of
transportation was ordered to surrender
the keys to the rooms, which he did
and the sime were officially turned
over to Governor Boyd.
The new chief executive took formal
possession and was saluted as governor
of Nebraska and is recognized as 6uch
by persons who visit the rooms.
Governor Boyd has appointed Judge
Higgus as his private secretary.
The board of transportation, which
recently occupied the present guberna-
Jorial quarters, ha.i been assigned as ite
future quarters the west room in the
mite occupied by the secretary of state.
The whole change was made so quiet
!v that nothing was known of it until
Governor JJoyd took formal possession
of the quarters assigned him. i
Secretary oi estate Allen hes chosen
Benjamin K. Cowdery, late secretary of
state, as his assistant, and Mr. Cowdery
hes entered upon the duties ot his onice
Benton and liill succeeded them
selves respectively as auditor and
treasurer. They will retain their old
H roe of assistants.
' Attorney .General Hastings has not
chosen a deputy.
.tand Commissioner Humphrey will
retain the same office force Shat doe
duty under Mr. Steen.
Governor Eoyc sent for Adjutant
G meral Cole in the evening and direc
ted him to order the removal of th
militiamen who are quartered in the
capitol building. Cole declined to obey
the order, whereupon the govenor noti
fied him that he was dissmissed from
further service. The govenor then ap
pointed General Victor Vifquain to suc
ceed Cole. The new adjutant, general
declared that he would order the militia
aut of the capitol building at once.
At 1 o'clock the members constituting
the board of public lands and buildings
went to ex-Governor Thayer and form
ally demanded the surrender of the
departments occupied by him. This
was emphatically refused by Thayer.
Ex-Governor Thayer gave as his reason
for refusing the demand that Boyd hud
not yet properly proven his citizenship,
and that he would not surrender the
office until he had done so. This, he
declares, Boyd cannot do.
My position is exactly tis: There is
a general conviction that Mr. Boyd is
not a citizen of this state; that although
he has livtd here many years he owes
allegiance to a foreiga power. I desire
this matter to be tested before the
supreme court, for it is a judicial ques
tion. If he is a citizen it is a very easy
matter for him to prove the fact. If he
is not a citizen, that fact should be established.;-Article
5, section 2, of the
constutioa ot the state of Nebraska is
in the following words:
"Persons ineligible No person shall
be eiligible to the office of governor or
'leutenant-governor who shall not have
attained Ite age of thirty years and
been for two years next preceeding his
election a citizen of the. United States
and of this state.
Language cannot make this provision
any stronger. I have sworn to support
the constitution, and it is my duty to
prevent, so far as it lies in my power, a
person who owes allegiance to a foreign
government; becoming governor of Neb
raska. If the proper tribunal should
decide after investigation that Mr. Boyd
is eligible to the position I will immedi
ately transfer the office to him, I am ad.
- i i i i , .1 .i .
viseu vy i.ign legal autnoruy mat it is
my duty to defend the constitution'
At a caucus of the independent mem
bers of the house last night, after a pro
tracted discussion, it wad determined
not to recognize Boyd as governor until
an opinion in his favor bad been ob
tained from the supreme court. - The
caucus waa attended by every one of
the fifty-four independents, and the
nession was anything but harmonious.
Waldron, Louinx, Feicbtinger and Scott
npenly declare that if the court says
Brydiathe legal governor they will
break away from their party and vote
to recognize h'm. , ;

able to make more than $2 a day, and a
well organized strike ensued. Fourteen

Pini litDOK. S. D., Jan. 13. All of the
hostiles reached tho inist'lon, tive iriles
from this agency, last night. The
troops followed them closely, and are
now guaiding.tbeTi. The delay in com
ing in is justly attributed to their lack
of transportation, they having oonipari
tively few animals and wagons.
Gensral Miles will divide the hostiles
at tho mission. Only those belonging
at the agency, chieily the Ogalalhib will
bebroughtin. The ot.'iers including
the Brulee, who belong lit rosebud, will

back to their respective agencies. No
railway trains will be used.
It is not understood that any attempt
'iU be made to disarm ti.fl hostiles,
either at the mission or after their arri
val at their agencies.
The Indians in effect surrendered
three days ago, and have since been
willing to yield, according to the word
they gave General Miles. They have
made as much speed as they could cou
sidering their condition and route, fre
quently having had to travel over tht
same roue two or three times in ofder
to bring forward these effects.
