MINNEAPOLIS , Minn. , Oct. 10. The
government has notified Governor
Clough that it has revoked the order
putting the companies of the Four
teenth Minnesota volunteers nt Duluth -
luth and at St. Paul under his orders.
He had all preparations made to send
the Duluth companies to the front nt
once to protect the settlers and was
arranging to mobilize the remaining
companies at St. PauL He supposes
that the revocation is due to General
Bacon's message suj'ing that there was
no more danger. lie added : "I shall
pay no more attention to the war de
partment. If necessary I will issue a
call for volunteers , arm them with
such guns as I can pick up and let the
government go to the devil. I am
tired of doing business with Washing
ton. There is too much red tape about
it. Orders are issued one minute and
revoked the next. I am not an alarm
ist , but it is the safe thing to be pre
pared. It will reassure the settlers
and perhaps prevent an outbreak. " '
The governor has received a mes
sage from Mayor John II. Ncavers of
Brainard saying : "I have just re
turned from Walker. Indians concen
trating at Leech Lake in large num
bers. Think they held council last

W. F. Street wired government from
Bemidji , west of Cass Lake : "While I
do not regard situation here as alarm
ing , our people are much disturbed.
If you could send village authorities
200 stands of arms they will be grate
fully received. lied Lake Indians re

ling and a field gun for each battery

WALKER , Minn. , Oct. 8. At the In
dian council held at the reservation a
demand was made by the government
through Indian Agent Sutherland that
the men concerned in the killing of
soldiers near Bear Island be given up
to answer to the charge of murder.
Marshal O'Connor and 250 troops
commanded by General Bacon will
move to the agency on the reservation
at 10 o'clock this morning. Boats
were chartered last night and another
effort will be made to apprehend the
twenty Indians for whom the marshal
has bench warrants. When the troops
arrive at the agency runners will be
sent out and the men ordered in. In
case they do not respond , Marshal
O'Connor , backed by the troops , will
go after them.
Information given out by one of the
Indians at the council yesterday was
that nineteen young bucks composed
the force which engaged General
Bacon's command near Bear Island.
Gay She Gwen Ay Yosh , or as the
English version would be. Strong
Voice of the Wind , was the leader , and
directed the plan of battle. The band ,
excepting the killed , are now on Bear
Island , and refuse to come in or take
part in the council. It is likely that
such renegades as they can induce to
join them will make things lively for
several months , confining themselves
to depredations on small settlements.
The report that Bog Ah Mah Ga Sink
was killed by one of the sharp shoot
ers is denied , the chief having refused
to take part in the attack.
Thirty-five Indians put in an appear
ance at the town of Lothrop , nine
miles south of here , last night. The
women and children were gathered in
a building and the citizens are guard
ing the town.

Into George Althouso , 111 ! ) Lincoln nvc-
uuo , where ho is presumed to liuvu
gone to mulco a cull.
Flvo shots wuru llrcd , three of which
entered his body , mid Mrs. Anna C.
George has boon placed tinder arrest
on suspicion of the murder. Suxton
was unconscious when neighbors ar
rived and began investigating the
cause of the shooting , and was dead
when physicians and oUlcers arrived ,
the physicians having expressed the
opinion that death was instantaneous ,
three bullets having entered vital
spots.
"Mrs. George is the divorced wife of
Sample C. George , who formerly was a
tenant of Saxton in his downtown
business block , conducting a dress
making business. Her divorce was ob
tained in Dakota and a proceeding
later filed in local courts by the hus
band against Saxton , charged that
Saxtou had sent her there to secure
the divorce , the proceeding hero being
a suit for damages for the alleged
alienation of the wife's affections.
This case has been through all the in
termediate courts and was passed upon
by the state supreme court on an in-
tcrpleading and finally remanded for
hearing on its merits here.
Before this occurred , and on
Wednesday , a settlement was effected ,
Saxton paying George 51,823 on the
claim set up of § 20,000 for damages.
It was common talk that Mrs.
George had made frequent threats of
taking Saxton's life. Many of these
threats are said to have been sent
through the mails , and the federal
grand , jury sitting in Cleveland last
fall indicted her for alleged improper
use of the mails. Mrs. George gave
bond , and the indictment , so far as it
is known , is still alive.
Sample C. George , the husband , is
now reported to have been married tea
a second wife for more than a year.
He is reported married in Wheeling to
Miss Lucy Graham of Alliance , and
the marriage was kept secret until af
ter the settlement with Saxton. As
soon as George got his damage money
from Saxton he announced his mar
riage. Mrs. George claims Saxton de
ceived her and deserted her.
HELD FOR WIFE POISONING ,
J. J. Kunkcl of Lnwroaco In Jail With
out Bond.
LA\VHTNCE , Kan. , Oct. 10. J. J. Kun-
kel was arrested here yesterday on a
coroner's warrant , charging him with
poisoning his wife , who died ten days
ago. He was sent to jail without bail
to await preliminary hearing next
Friday.
Mrs. Kunkel was the second wife of
the man accused of killing her. She
had one daughter , 15 years old , and
Kxmkel had three children. The union
of the two families did not prove to
be a happy one. About six weeks ago
Birdie Cummingore , Mrs. Kunkel's
daughter , died in great agony , after
the attending physician had pro
nounced her out of danger. When the
doctor returned for his next call he
found her dead. There was a glass of
malted milk which Mrs. Kunkel told
the doctor she had taken and immedi
ately began vomiting. The doctor took
the milk home with him and kept it
until it was presented before the cor
oner's jury the past week.
The stomachs of the two women
were analyzed and found to contain
arsenic. Kunkel has been a merchant
in this city for twenty-five years and
has had a good many friends. For the
past three years , however , he has baen
under suspicion by his neighborsxfor
poisoning other members of his fam
ily. His father-in-law is cited as the
first victim. The old man made his
home with the Kunkels , and it is al
leged that , becoming tired of it , Kun
kel gave him a dose of medicine that
caused his death within a few hours.
The first Mrs. Kunkei died wiih con
vulsions. There was much talk at the
time that Kunkel poisoned her , and
the fact that he collected 80,000 insur
ance on her life added to the belief
that he had a hand in getting her out
of the way. Four children were left.
Freddie , the youngest , was the next
one to take sick. His life was also in
sured , and he died under suspicious
circumstances.
THEY MUST HURRY ,

A Surgeon Testifies Before the In
vestigation Commission ,
CONDITIONS AT CAMP THOMAS
When Dr. GIHltt Citino to ChloIctitntuiKit
Ho round Open Slnlcii Nour the Kltoli-
ont Hotfpltali Were Overcrowded for
I < nclc of
WASHINOTON , Oct. 10. The wnr in
vestigating commission began its pro
ceedings to-day with Major Kinmutt
Gifllu on the stand. Ho was a brigade
surgeon at Camp Thomas , and told
of his visit to the second divis
ion hospital in July last , when ho said
ic was overcrowded. In each tent
and under its Hies there were eight or
nine men , where there should have
been from four to six. There was a
sullicicncy of physicians and Major
Giilin was sure they were competent
men. The majority of patients
were suffering from typhoid fever.
He thought the crowding of the
hospital was from lack of sufficient
tcntage , n. fault due to the surgeon in
charge. Dr. Giflin made his visit to
the division hospital to see a man in
his brigade who had been shot in the
leg. lie found him in a tent with ty
phoid fever patients and consequently
had him removed.
The division hospital surgeons were
competent in their profession , some
of them being some of the
most competent in the United
States , but they were not men of
executive ability. He considered the
water supply good. The sinks were
poorly located. They were too near
the kitchens and were too shallow.
Many of them were only seventy-five
feet from the company kitchen and
were open when he arrived. He then
had them moved farther back and gave
directions for daily disinfection and
covering. By this time , however , the
regiments were all infected , as he
thought , by the flies going from the
sinks to the mess tables.
Dr. Griffin was given charge of the
construction of the Sternberg hos
pital upon the first of August and
after the hospital was constructed
was chief surgeon there. He said
the tents comprising this hospital
were 14x15 , floored and supplied with
four beds each. There were 100 tents
and a number of wooden buildings.
Five hundred and thirty-three was the
largest number of men at the hospi
tal at one time and , all 'told ,
1,127 men had been healed there up to
last Thursday. Of these 86 per cent
were typhoid. There had been sixty-
seven deaths at the institution.
The cases sent to him were
generally the most dangerous. He
had twenty-five contract surgeons and
regular , and 167 female nurses and 159
members of the hospital corps acting
as nurses.
