At o'clock when Inspector Mc
I'baul opened tbe door of the city

; aaltlng to take their turns at the
registration desk.
Wet aod st?aming under the hot
run those who had stood the night
.broiuh In line sat on tbe ground
and pulyed cards and ate lunches
which they purchased from vendejs
up ana down the line.
S. Haines, New York cltv, w
the first man to be registered, biv
Ing taken his position at the ball
door at 4 o'clock Monday afternoon.
At tbe Haplist church where ladles
and o!d soldiers were registering,
inly a coiroral's guard or men
waited through the night and were
on duty at sunrise. The experiences
they bad during ;their time of ser
vice m:id(! them mote oblivious to
uie siorm or me night than were
tbe ounger generation at the city
hall. Dining the night tbe old
veterans sat around on logs which
they bad provided for that purp.se
tid exchanged experiences of the
campaign's.
The ladles begun corning In as
early as 4 o'clock In the morning
and were placed In lino with the

Conway of Omaha was the first to

o'cl ck there were about fifty wonifn
In line and their ranks were fol

veterans of the civil war. Only a
few I'liilippine veterans were in
line.
"We will register this crod like
a whirlwind," said the Comruls
slonr Richard''. "Of course others
will take their place as each train
arrives, Lut, wo have to keep ahead
of the crowd, or at least keep even.
I am more than well pleased at the
good arrangements fur landing the
crowds, and at the orderly condi
tion of everything. The opening Is
a success In every way."
"The rules and laws coqeefning
these land distributions are very
el5sU'-' and can be changed and re
made without much trouble. And
that is tbe way we will control all
tbe people who have aoybing to do
with this distribution.
"Now, regarding the matter of

Of course, any one can tile a contest,
but Instead of waiting for moaths

"Regarding town sites any ono

fore August 8, when tbe reservation
Is formally opened. If an affirmative
answer Is given the-rcg'jlar land laws

"Here Is something I wish to say
In particular. I wish to commend
the people of Ronesteel for tbe good
arrangements they have made for
this registration, and for the good
pilice force and tbo cheapness of
everything. Ronesteel is wheie the
people ought to come and It Is where
they will come."
"How many peoplo can your force

"We can simply register everybody

LONDON. Over 700 Danish aod
Norwegian emigrants bound for New
York are believed to bave been
diowned in tbe North Atlantic on
June 23. Out of nearly Sou souls on
board the Danish steamer Norge
whicb left Copenhagen June 23 only
twenty-seven are known to be alive,
and for the rest no hope is held out.
When last seen, tbe Norge was
sinking where she struck oo the
Islet of R( ckall. whose Isolated peak
rises from a deadly Atlantic reef
some 2'JO miles off the west coast of
Scotland.
Early on tbe morning of last Tues
day the Norge, which was out of her
course In heavy weather, ran onto
the Rockall reef, wblch in the dis
tance looked like a ship under full
sail. The Norge was quickly backed
off, but the heavy seas poured In
thruigh a rent in ber bow.
ibe emigrants, who were then a
awaiting breakfast below ran on
decK. Tbe hatchways were scarcely
built for tluse hundreds of souls, and
became clogged.
The Norge quickly began to go
down by the bead. Eight boats were
lowered, and Into these the woman
and children were hurrledy put. .Six
of these b'ats smashed against tbe
side cf the Norge and their helpless
inmates were caught up by tbo heavy
seas.
Two boat loads got safely away
from the side of the sinking 'hip,'
and many of the emigrants who
were left on Hoard, seizing life belts
threw themselves, into the sea and
were drowned. Captain Gundel, so
say the survlvo's, st.jod cn the bridge
until the vessel could ne seen no
more. J he vessel foundered sud
denly and some six hundred terrified
people were thrown Into the water
or drowned within the sinking ship.
Those who could swim tried to
reach the boats, but these were
already too full, and their occupants
beat oil the drowning-wretcbes with
oars.
Tbe boals kept together for some
houis. Practically all of her occu
pants were passengers, and were not
used to handling such crafts The
boat occupied by the survivors
landed at Grimsby w:is a lifeboat.
One account says that three boats
were successfully launched, the other
two holding about ten persons each.
The life boat made faster progress
and fell in with the Salvia. What
became of the other buat is not yet
known.

DENVER, Col. Justice Robert
W. Steele of tbe state supreme court
today riled bis opinion dissenting
from tbe decision of the majority in
refusing a writ of fjabeas corpus to
Charles II. Moyer, president of tbe
western federation of miners, held
a military prisoner at Telluride ty
order of Governor Peabody.
The opinion, containing nearly
10,000 words, deals exhaustively with
tbe situation created In this state
by military rule and cites a mass of
authorities to show that only tbe
legislature can suspend tbe writ of
habeas corpus. Justice Steele says
In part:
"No person who has the slightest
claim to respectability should hesi
tate to approve the action of the
governor In enforcing the liw, and I
am willing to uphold him and to
applaud blrn so long as be keeps
within the lines of tbe constitution.
Iiut I am not willing to uphold him,
when in my opinion be oieaks down
the barriers erected by the people
for their protection, nor am I will
ing to accord to tbe constitution
elastic properties for the purpose of
sus'ainlng him. nor to Join in the
establishment of a precedr rit which
will not apply to other classe or
other condition) when another gov
ernor undertakes to exercise the
same arbitrary power.
"I am not willing to concede the
power chimed by the governor and
exercised by him, becaus", In my
opinli n, such power Is not vested
in him by the constitution. The
people could never bave intended to
ere-t such an engine of oppressions.
"It folllows, of course, that if the
present executive Is the sole Judge
cf tbe conditions which can call Into
action the military power of the
government and can exercise, all
mean necessary to effectually abate
tbe conditions, and the Judicial de
partment cannot inquire into the
legilily of his acts, that the next
governor may by his u'ase, exercise
the same arbitrary power.
i "If the military authority many
deport the miners this year it can
deport Ibe farmers next year.
"If a strike, whicb is not a re
bellion must be so regarded because
the governor says it Is, then any
condition must be regarded as a
rebellion which the governor declares
to be such, and if any condition
must be regarded as a rebellion be
cause tbe governor says so, then any
county In tbe state may be dechred
to bo in a state of rebellion,
whether a reoelllon exists or not,
and every citizen subjected to arbi
trary arrest and detention at tbe
will and pleasure of the bead of tne
executive department. We may then
with each succeeding change in the
executive branch of the government
have class arrayed against class, and
interest against interest, and we
shall depend for our liberty, not
upon tbe constitution, but upon the
grace and favor of tbe governor and
his ruilltiry subordinates
"In no other case presented In tftis
court have principles so important
and so far reachlog been Involved
It was elaborately and ably argued,
aod tbe position Z of counsel was
clearly defined, yet tbe court has
evaded the fundamental questions
and has based Its decision upOD
theories long ago determined by
Jurists and statesmen to be illogical
and false."
Justice Steele then quotes bigb
authorities to show that tbe con
stitution makers never contemplated
placing tbe power of suspending the
privilege of the writ of habeas
corpus in the hands of tbe executive,
and that the power Is exclusively
vested In the legislative branch.
"The authority Is so overwhel
ming," continues the opinion, "that
the position of the governor cannot
be sustained that tbe power of
suspending the privilege of tbe
habeas corpus writ is legislative
and nob executive; that martial law
can only prevail In places where
the civil law Is overthrown by force,
and that It exists only sn long as it;
Is necessary to reinstate the courts;
that martial law cannot prevail
where the courts are open and exer
clsinr their functions; that the
Judicial department will take notice

"Tbe courts has not undertaker
to declare be position taken bj
tbt governor and his special coosul
as correct, bit has said that tbt
rlgbt of tbe governor to declare aoc
enforce martial law, aod suspend
the privilege of habeas corpus is in
volved. Tbe court would have sus
tained tbe governor under tbe au
tborities if It were possible to do so
but finding it impossible to sustaii
him under tbe authorities it hai
sustained birp in spite of them.
"But 1 believe tbat the constitu
tion has been unnecessarily assailec
and rudely violated by tbe head ol
the executive department, and firmlj
believe tbat this court has removed
tbe landmarks whicb our fa than
bave set, aod my duty requires mi
to withhold my approval."
"It is entirely probable," sayi
Justice Steele in the course of bii
comments oo tbe opinion of bis col
leagues, Justices Gabbert and Camp
bell, "that the act of the governoi
in calling to bis aid tbe mllitar)
arm of tbe government cannot bi
questioned, but when it couies t(
superseding tbe civil power and exer
rising military law, to disobeying
the writ of habeas corpus or othei
process of tbe court, to detalniu
citizens upon suspicion, then tht
question of whether an insurrection
exists is not to be determined b
the governor's proclamation.
"The court has not construed th
consltutloo; it has ignored it, anc
the result is tbat it has madr
greater inroads on tbe constitutor,
than it intended and said taht nol
one of the guarantees to peisonal
liberty can now be enforced.
"Moyer may be gulty of the raosl
heinous offenses. It may be thai
he deserves to linger in prison thi
remainder of bis natural life, but be
Is entitled to bis liberty unless souk
one, in proper form and before I
proper tribunal, charges him with
viol it ion of tbe law.
"If one may be restrained of his
liberty without charge being pre
ferred against him, every othei
guarantee of the constitution may b
denied him.
"The greatness of the county con.
slsts in being able to protect, tj
the shield of Is constitution tbe
humble and exhalted, tbe pu e and
tbe wicked. We gave tbe wretches,
Gulteau, Prendergast and Czolgosi
trials by due form of law, and by so
doing we strengthened the natioD
at home and abroad. Had we de
pared from tbe principles declared,
by our fathers, we should bav
lessened tbe liberty of every citizen
and imperiled the titled to al)
posterity.
"We cannot sow tbe dragons' teetl
and harvest peacfi and repose; wt
cannot sow the wind and gather thi
restful calm.
"Our fathers came here as exile,
from a tyrant king. Tbe birthright
of liberty was denied tbem by a
horde of petty tyrants that infested,
the lano, sent by the king to loot,
to plunder and to oppress. Arbitrary
arrests were made and ludges aspir
ing to the smile of tbe prince re
fused by 'pitiful evasions' the wrii
of habeas corpus. Our people weri,
banished, they were denied trial bj
jury, they were deported for trial foi
pretended offenses, and they finalh
resolved to suffer wrong no more,
and pledged their lives, their prop
erty and their honor to secure tb
blessing of lioeity for themselvet
and for us, their children. Rut II
the law is as this court has declared
then our vaunted priceless heritagi
is a shame and our fathers stood 'be
tween their loved ones and tbe war'r
desolation 'in vain.' "
