the benefits of the healing waters of Hot

been accomplished , among thorn two cases of
rheumatism in most aggravated form. James
13. Thomas of Gordon , Neb. , was a terrible suf
ferer from imtlamatory rheumatism. Ho came
to Hot Springs Juno 10 and could only with
thu greatest diftlculty get about on crutches.
Ho is now nblo to go everywhere , tip hill nnd

Ho partially recovered from the injury when
rheumatism set In so severely that ho could
neither move hand nor foot. Afloromploy-
Ing the most skillful physicians without avail
ho came to Hot Springs , arriving May 21.
When ho arrived hero ho was nearly help
less nnd could only with great dltllculty eel
about on crutches. Ho at once commenced
to bathe In nnd drink the waters
of tbo Minnckntitu hot spring nnd In one
week's time ho threw nwav his crutches nnd
today Is entirely cured of rhoumatUm and
free from pain. The waters of this spring
had a marvelous effect In his case. Ho says :
' I have observed ninny others hero who have
come on crutches and gone away cured or
nearly so during the ftvo weeks I have boon
here. I do not think tlio virtues of the waters
of the Dakota hot springs are sulllclently

CuumssK , Wyo. . July 2. [ Special Telegram -
gram to TUB Buis. I The testimony in the
Filleorown murder trial is all in tonight.
Fillobrown himself occupied the stand forever
over live hours , four of which were devoted
to cross-examination. His story was to the
ertcct that ho and Poulks had been close
friends , although his family didn't like his
chum. On the morning ot thu killing they
arose earlier than usual. As Ahoy were
baching together , Fillobrown started to wish
tbo dlshos after breakfast. The conversation
turned on women. Foulks thought tbat
none of them were Invincible. Fillobrown
made a somewhat sarcastic response. Foulks
then said that oven Fillobrown's sister
ould bo overcome and that she had actually
been. Fillobrown said ho was a blaukea
liar. With that Foulks struck him , knocked
him down and pounded him. Foulks then
left the room to enter the holler room. Fllle-
brown was insensible for a few minutes.
Ho was obliged to go out in the same way as
his room niato. Noticing his revolver as ho
went out ho picKcd It up ( caring Foulks might
carry out his threat of pounding him with n
buggy bar. When ho reached the spot
where Foulks was , the latter dropped
the shovel as thouch to start
toward him and Pillourown shot him twice.
The weakest part of the testimony was in ro-
latlontotho subsequent ( light , but taken as
a whole the witness stood the cross-examina
tion very well. Gibson Clarke made ono of
the closing speeches for the state tonight.
There will bo three more speeches tomorrow.
The case will probably go to the jury by
ovonlng. _

Hea-l of tjio Treasury1' Department
ClmrKcil with M iltfilj , '
Ht.itciiionts Present"Slutua
of the CIIHO.
Piiit.uir.i.rnu , July 2. Genor.il Master
Workman Powdoriy of the ICnights of Labor
has prepared the following statement relative
to the controversy over the re-employment
of the plate printers dropped from the rolls
of the bureau of printing and engraving nt
Washington : " 'Jp to this moment I have
not said u word publicly , but I feel that the
statements charged to the secretary of the
treasury merit recognition and denial slnco
they aru entirely and unquallllodly false. Ho
lias stated , so it Is alleged and It has not
been denied that the ploto printers' trouble
wns not the subject of discussion at the
meeting held at M.iusllald between
Senator Sherman , Major McKlnloy and liiir. -
self. That matter was discussed at Mans
field and settlement advised , and I hold
the proofs over the signature of Major Me-
Kinlcy himself. On his return to Washing
ton the secretary of the treasury wired the
general worthy foreman of this order , Mr.
Cavamigh , to como to Washington , that the
matter could bo settled. The general worthy
foreman compiled with the request nnd on
Juno 10 had n moment's interview with the
secretary of tno treasury , who without dis
cussing the merits of tha case named 2 p. m.
of that day as the time when ho would meet
our commtttrc. At that hour Messrs. Devlin
nnd Cavanagh called at the treasury depart
ment , saw Mr. Foster and concluded tin
agreement to restore the discharged men to
tholr places. Ho oven went so far as to
write n letter to one , asking thorn to tidvlsu
him wnother ho wished to bo ro-omployed.
That latter embodied the agreement entered
into. It is written in tils own hand over his
own signature. Wo hold that letter
as proof of what wo sny. Mr. Delvln mudo
the memorandum of the terms on which the
agreement was based and on tbo strength of
which ho wrote the loiter. The terms are as
follows : Tliat the seven men who have
been dropped from the rolls in the plato
printing department shall be restored to
their former places or places of equal 1m-
portanco and pay , and that they shall ho
treated with the same fairness and considera
tion ns other plato printers by the chief and
his other assistants ; that four of them shall
bo restored ir. ten days nnd the balance
within two weeks from this date.
"Mr. Devlin's first proposition was that n'.l
the discharged men should bo restored to
their former places within ten days , but In
order to conciliate the secretary he prepared
the foregoing and It was approved" by Air.
Foster , secretary of the treasury , and Mr.
Mcreditn , chief of ttio bureau of engraving
and printing. It was saia by Meredith that
the agreement could bo carded out without
the displacement of any man in the depart
ment.
"These deliberations were concluded , and
those present congratulated 'themselves ' upon
the happy termination oftho dlfllculty when
a committee of plate printers was called iuto
the secretary's chamber 'by Mr. Meredith.
The curd wUlch announce' their arrival bore
this inscription : 'A delegation from the
Gompers' federation of labor desires to bo
heard bolore an agreement is arrived at with
the Knights of Labor. ' '
"Tbeso men hud been4 called nwny from
their machines at 11 o'clock Unit day Just as
sooh us It became Known 'that Mr. Cuvnnngh
had arranged with the secretary of the treas
ury for an interview. They were
drilled by Mr. Meredith ns to their
speeches , conduct , otc.fi whllo deliberating
with the secretary , but the instructions were
not complete , for Mr. Meredith foraot to toll
them the name of the organisation they were
supposed to represent and thov gave the
name of an association that docs not and
never did exist ,
"After a short interview witn this committee -
too tbo secretary turned to Mr. Devlin and
snatcning some papers from his hand said :
'If there is to bo a light with these organisa
tions I don't know but what I had better
light vours.1 To that Mr. Devlin replied :
'If it 1s to be n tight I guess wo can do a llttlo
of that ourselves. '
"Dr. Devlin then called his attention to tbo
fact that ho bad concluded an agreement to
settle the matter ; that in that agreement no
mitii , whether Knight of Labor or member of
the federation , was to bo discriminated
against oa misplaced. The secretary ot the
treasury stated tbat he would have to send
for Mr. Gompors before ho could arrive nt
a full understanding of tno caso. The ad
visers of Mr. Foster have influenced him to
so net as to give the controversy such a col
oring as to create the impression that it is a
struggle bbtwcen labor organisations. Such
is not the caso. Wo have no light , quarreler
or dispute with any labor organisation and
this contest will not bo so regarded by the
general ofllcors of the Knights of Labor. Mr.
Foster has an undoubted right to consult
with Mr. Gompers if he pleases , but the fact
still remains that none of tbo men Involved
belong to any organization but the Knights
Labor. "
