Tbo holdup occurred about fifteen miles ( northwest of this city. They nut a reps around Ills neck and led htm down Into n gully and after questioning him for about an hour and a half let htm go.

"I said 1 would go out Monday. I went as agreed , reaching Dlgler'a house about 11 o'clock. Dlglcr Bald ho had some cattle , but they wore out among the hills , and , as It was near noon , asked mo to put up my horse and stay for dinner. 1 agreed to dose so , and my horse was put up and 1 wont In to dinner. After dinner Hlgler went , as ho said , to water his horee. I wished to go with him , but ho said , tiovcr mind , to stay In ths house , and I did so. After ho came In we put on our coats and went out and got our horses and otartod to sec the cattle , " " \Vc had gone about a mlle from the house when I looked back and saw three men np- proachlntf. They were riding horsss and had handkerchiefs tied around their faces as mauks. I thought nothing of It at the tlmo , but In a few moments they caught up with us and ordered us to halt and throw up our hands. We obeyed , and then were ordered to dismount , which Instruction , ho says , they obeyed with alacrity. " Ilyan says that n handkerchief wa < ther tied over his eyes and his hands were tied behind his back. They were led down Into a gulch and a rope placed around his neck. Ono of the vlgllants asked If the place would do , and another slid It would. One of them was then told to bring the long ropo. "They asked what I knew about cattle ruDtlliiR , and I told them nothing , only what I had read and heard. They tvxld that would not do , and they guosaed they would take me to the river. I asked them what they wanted with mo , and they eald I would flnd out Boon enough. They were not willing to do much talking. They wanted me to do It all. I knew two of the men. Titty then asked Blgler a lot of questions about the capture of the Illlh ) In 1S91. Ho raid that lie arrested - rested the Hills upon a warrant In Ills pos session nnd that they were taken from him by a mob. "They then asked mo sonic more ques- tlono , which I answered. Tficy said the answers would not do , and told some one to bring up the wagon , that they would take mo to the river. They then took the rope fr.om my neck and led me up a hill. They told me to stay there for twenty minutes or until I beard a pistol shot and then to skip. "I followed their Instructions , nnd as soon as I heard the- shot took the bandage oft my eyes , they having released my hands before leaving , Hlgler was standing near me , blind folded and with his hando tied behind his back. I released him , and we mounted our horses and started for nigler'o 1101133. About two mllcD from Blgler's I passad thp man who had Invited mo to go out there. He dirt not [ appear much surprised when I told him of the holdup. " " There Is great ; excitement 'In ' this city to day over this Incident , and much Indigna tion Is expressed by all parties ? . The VCT ! tlm of this outrage Is a straightforward young man , and has hosts of friends In this city nnd county. 1III1 HIGH FOIl Til 13 IIOMIS.

Mur phy was reinstated na a class H rider ; Ster ling Elliott was elected president of the League of Ametlcan Wheelmen nnd Louis ville was chosen as the place for the ' 05 meet toJay by the league delegates. The racing board , at a session held late last night , decided to rein state Charles M. Murphy , who has been under sentence of life suspension for al leged crookedness In throwing a race In St. Louis last summer. Titus and Cabanno , his associates In the matter , were not re instated. The board wns In sewlon until 3 o'clock a. m. None of the testimony taken has been made public , but It Is asserted that Titus made a statement which exonerates Murphy , but Implicates Titus nnd Cabanno more deeply than ever , and that the sen tence of Indefinite suspension against them will stand. The league convention was late In get ting to work today , and It was 11 o'clock be fore President Wllllson called the delegates to order. The morning session wao devoted to hearing the reports of the president , committee on credentials nnd the executive committee , all of which show the league to bo In good condition. The report of Secretary Ilasaett recom mended a roll of honor to contain the names ot all who were present at the league's initial me-etlng In Newport. The committee on rights nnd privileges reported that the protest against the election of Sccrctary- Treanurer Van Nort of the Pennsylvania division be dismissed , nnd the report wns sustained , The membership committee re ported a flourishing state of things. It has received fifteen protests , and there have been eight expulsions during the year. Consul I. B. Potter of the committee on highway Improvements made a verbal re port of the committee's work. The most Important report of the mornIng - Ing was that ot Chairman Gideon of the racing board. In It he says : "A con fession , Just made , baa the effect of remov ing the evidence against Charles M. Murphy , who has , accordingly , been reinstated. " This Is In relation to the testimony of Fred Titus , taken last night. The report stated that 900 suspensions were made last year , of which sixteen were permanent. In 1S94 there were 250 class B men , now there are G73. In the tnmo year there were ninety profes sionals In the league , now there are 703. Professional racing , the report asserts , has been clean nnd honest since the league asujmed control of It. The report recommends that the records In the future ho confined to one-fourth , one- third , one-half and one mile. After hearing Chairman Gideon's report the convention adjourned until 2:30 : a. in. , at which time the election of officers will bo taken up. W1LLIEON FORCES ROUTED. As soon as the convention reassembled In the afternoon nn attempt was made to elect officers. President Wllllson , falling to secure a postponement ot the election , claimed the right to submit a report which , he said , had an Important bearing upon the election of clflcsrs. He secured the floor , and talked I'll ' after 5 o'clock , to the manifest annoy ance cf many delegates. The subject of his report was the conference between the of ficers and members of the executive board of the League of American Wheelmen and the Board of Trade of Bicycle manufacturers on the question of catalogue advertising Jid ! other matters. He asserted that a bill of $1,232 had bean contracted In this con nection by Consul Potter , which ho thought the convention should jiftos upon before electing officers. President Wllllson said charges had been made in th's connection that he neglected his duties as president. This ho denied. Thlo matter brought up Consul J. B. Potter's lawsuit against tht league and a long wrangle followed. Finally a motion was carried to receive the report rnd postpone its consideration. The election of officers was then declared to be In order. Archibald C. Wllllson and Sterling Elliott were placed In nomination. A ballot having been taken It was nnnouncci ! that Sterling Elliott of Massachusetts had received 101 votes to 73 for Wllllson of Mary land , the present Incumbent. The roster of officers was then completed by the unanimous election of the following ticket : F'rst vice president , Charles F. Cossum of New York ; second vice presi dent , . .A. C. Morrison cf Wisconsin ; treas urer , E. S. Hartwell , Colorado ; audltlnr committee , J. F. Adams of Massachusetts , cha'rinan ' ; J. J. Van Norte , Pennsylvania and G. A. McCarthy , Colorado. The convention then took up the question of selecting a place for the 1890 meet. Both Louisville and Toledo soughtUhe honor. After several nominating addresses the debate was closed and Louisville was selected by a vote of 02 to 73. Adjournment was taken until 9 o'clock to morrow morning , TIIII3I ) TUB STAIIT1XO SIACIII.VU. AiiKtrillllill Invention 1'roves SlltlH- fnctory at IiiKlt'Nldc. SAN FRANCISCO , Feb. 11. The Austra lian system of starting wns given a trial at Ingleslde today , nnd the result of the trial will be noted with considerable Interest by racing associations nnl turfmen through out the country. If the- test slvcn today can be taken ns a criterion It Is safe to as- fort that the day of the starter will soon be over , as the start was nn unqual'Iled EUP- ccr.s in every particular. The fourth race , a mlle handicap , was selected for the test and ten starters were drawn ur > In .Ine facing the machine. The horJes had scarcely been nt tlio post forty seconds wlien the tilgKcr was pressed nnd they \veio sent away In perfect alignment. It was HIP mot perfect hlnrt ever witnessed In th'a ' sect'on ' and elicited thunders of npplause from the spec- la tors. Mr. CorrlBan was warmly congratu lated upon the Bticcesi of the nnw venture. Following la n description of the Austra lian ntnrtlnir machine : The machine con sists of two bands of strong webbimr , each nbout four inches In wldtn , made fast nt both ends to a frame , which slides upward nnd nwny from the horses at an angle of 15 degrees. The lower band Is nbout four feet nl'ovo the ground , the upper perhaps a foot ilgher. The frnmo to which the webbing Is attached runs to n cable nttached to n puliey , which Is nbout fourteen feet higher , or a peat some twelve foot beyond the stari ng post. The power to draw tljls bar Is supplied by a heavy clnutlc band. The ! inmc , before belns I cleaned upon Its lly- ng Journey , Is held In position by a trl Kcr on both s'des ' of the track , the connection jetween the triggers being a wire stretched ncTOss llio track. As Bion as the horses are Innd up faclne1 the webblns : , which Is per- iaps nbout a foot away , the starter pulls a lover , which releases the triggers , Hands the wubs llyliiK In&tantnneou&ly and nolsllv ipwnrd and outward nml the horses are off n 11 lino. The Pacific Coast Joclcov club has un earthed another scheme of the downtown 100) ) rooms to obtain the Ingleslde results , i wlro having boon surreptitiously run Into the grounds and the information telegraphed - graphed abroad. Some time ago the Jockey lub leased Its own wires from the West ern Union company oven which the results were bi-nt east , iwid had the grounds pa- rolled continuously by urmed police , but In spite of nil their precautions the poo' ; room nen have eluded the vigilance of the track owncis by resortlntt to such methods as .mentioned above. PommnncInK todnv the oIlU'lnlB have < lfc ! < U' < l to dlrcontjmie all tolc- Kinpble communication until they Imve forced the local pool rooins to time. This action shuts off nil pee !

Ho added that no words that could Impale such a settlement would , fall from him. This remark was greeted without loud cheers , as It dispose of the report that liberal leaders had deter mined' to make an attack upon the govern ment's policy In regard to Venezuela , which oiurso necessarily would have led to an ex change of warm remarks which might hav Impeded the progress of a settlement of th dispute. Continuing , Sir William Vernon Harcour Enid that misunderstandings both in Englam and in the United States existed and hat caused ruffled feelings on both sides. Th Idea that Great Britain disputed the questloi of the Monroe doctrine wns nothing new o extraordinary.

Sir William Harcourt also said : "I am li entire agrfement with Lord Salisbury whet ha says the United States have a perfcc right to Interpose- any controversy by which their own interests are effected , and they are entitled to Judge whether their In terests are affected nnd In what measure they shall bo sustained. That Is a genera dctrlno upon .which all states act. Upoi this Is founded the balance of power , and upoi that ground. Great Britain Interposed In Belgium , Greens , Turkey and many othe places. ThojMqnroo dcctrlne Is not an extension ' tension cf this , 'principle ; It Is a limitation of what other- stays claim to exercise every where. Presf | ! ntr Monroe limited It to the American condnent nnd the United States following the' , wise teaching of Washington have declarci 'th'elr disinclination to Interfere In the affairs pf , the European powers , bu they have ddplafejl the controversies cf tht American continent to bs ot especial Inter est to thems Iyqa/and they will Judge when and how theV ara called upon to Interfere NOT OIJFENJ3IVE TO ENGLAND. "That is , not .disputed In the qmen's speech , and jl rejplce to see that It state : a wish to co-operate with the government o the United States , nnd the , only practlca question remaining Is whether the d'ctrlnc has been Invaded Jn the ca'ste of Venezuela The .United States have not'made any pro- nouncemenL1upon this question , but have ap pointed a 'commission to Inform their Judg ments upon the subject. It has been stated that the appointment of this commission was an offense to the people nnd governmoni of Great Britain. Happily the government does not take that view. The commission Is to Infcrm the government of tha United States , with which our government desires to co-operate. "How can the United States of America co-operate with us until they have the In formation which will enable them to co operate In settling the boundary ? "I regret the delay in the publication o ] the English case. I should have thcnghl that before answering Secretary Olney nl the materials would have been ready to lay before the United States and the world at large. We do not desire to claim any terrl- t ry to which we are not clearly entitled , and tha question is what Is that territory ? It U the business of the diplomats to come to i reassnable settlement In such a matter. Diplomacy has had this matter In hand for i half century , and a mighty bad hand It i > as made of it , In my opinion. It Is not creditable that 'a question of this character should have been allowed to fester until It hai broken open Into n dangerous sore , to breed bad blood between tw > great nations. It Is the flist duty of the government to taka measures without delay to heal this soro. "What the country demands , without dis tinction of party. Is that the dispute should In brought to an honorable solution promptly. ( Cheers. ) "If It Is proved that the rights of Vene zuela have not been Invaded by Great Britain , the United Stats-a .of America will have no cause fcr complaint. If wo have occupied tenltory to which we- have no title , wo must not make any pretense to maintain that oc cupation. The question must be settled on tlio evldei'ce , and what objection can be talsed to the arbitrament of a third party ? "The people of Great Britain and the United States of Awcrlct lmv "ir iilv f * tied Important questions by arbitration , and It cannot bo admlUcd that tnla iiuuoii . ; b&yond tha reach of arb'.tratl n. The gov ernment does not reject arbllratoii ! , ni" ' * ' cnly question Is the limitation of the boundary. There Is a general desire that Justice should be done. " COMPLIMENTED CHAMBERLAIN , Referring to the Tranavaal question , Sir William pnld a high tribute to Mr. Chamber lain for his skillful conduct cf the affair , nnd said he thpujht history had but few examples of such moderation as had been displayed by President Krucier ; under circumstances of unparalleled provocation , Returning tp Armenia , Sir WJJllam Vernon Harcourt said ttiut to say the reference to this subject In Jie'queen's ) speech was dis appointing nntt.unworthy of tha subject , wilt represent tho'TeeltrtEs of thecountry. . Continuing , hp remarked : "These crimes are matters lfT oiir special concern , as wo are parties to the guaranty of the powers , ' Tha whole poml'tor the treaty of Berlin 1 > that there wn3t'a' ' < fovenant upon the part of the bultan to Hffrryl'out reforms nnd a gr.ir- anty upon tho'Jp'aTt"of ' the powers cf Europe to see that th > sd irefTins were confirmed. Under the Cypms convention Great IlrlUIn especially covenants to defend Turkey In Asia , In returni'for ! which Turkey covenants to protect the// Christians In Armenia. The support wo have ( riven Turkey was condi tional upon tlit-j covenants which the sultan has foully btojaonVoff. Is this to be the out- cmo of thai-great Anglo-Turk policy of 1878 ? " tl BII Continuing , Slrji\Vllllain Vernon Harcourt described LordnBallsbury's recent speech on the subject ofArmenia ; as an "unparalleled confession of dJplQpjatlc Insolvency and Im potence , " Passing to the oth'er topics of the speech , Sir William Harcourt expressed confidence that the Housd would support the necessary Increase In the navy. Ho concluded his speech by saylnE ! "I am glad to find that the government has not contemplated a re turn to protection or tampering with the currency. " ACCEPT THE MONROE POCTRINE. Hon , A. J. Balfour , first lord of the treas ury nnd conservative leader In the House , was loudly cheered when ha arose to reply to the liberal leader. He Eald ; "Sir William Vernon Harcourt baa devoted much time to attacking views that the government has never held , Neither I nor my friends ever said that the Monroe doctrine waa one to which wo had a right to object. It la of British origin , and I do not see why we uhould crltlcUo It. The American commis sioners ( on the Venezuelan boundary ) have applied , to us for any Information that wo may have on the Venezuelan boundary , and wo have promlted to glvo any Information obtnlnnblo nt the earllcot possible moment. ( Cheerp. ) No falfe pride or diplomatic punc- llllo wilt ha allowol to ( tnnd In the way of .1 settlement , ns far na wo are concerned. "I'nt ' there are duties requiring diplomatic enforcement. We- owe a duty to our chil dren , onr colonies , nnd those occupying them and I lib country would not deserve to retain the confidence of the colonies unless con vinced that we were ready and willing to defend them , nnd In n ca e In which WP arc not right , we should not abandon them. "It lo Impossible to foroaso with certainty what will be the genera ) conclusions arrived at by the American committee , or by those called upon to Investigate the claim. Hut ono conclusion , I am convinced , wilt be reached by every ono who Impartially In vestigates ho will bo convinced that there has never been the slightest Intention on the pnrt of thin country to violate the subs'tnnco ' or oisenco ot the Monroe doctrine. What ever conclus'on ' the committee miy arrive nt , It will most assuredly reach the conelu- r.lou thit no des'lre to push beyond the duo limit of tha frcntlcr of this empire has cvrr been the animating enure which moved Hrll- Ish diplomacy In tlibs long drawn out con- troverty. "It this conclusion be fairly nnd frankly set before the citizen ? of the United States one ot their greatest fears will bo s > 3t nt rest. They will feel no need to suspect on the pirt of this country anything In the nature of an Invasion cf a principle of policy which both they and wo cherlrh , "I Dhall rejoice If out ot this evil should spring s mo general system of arbitration. If that were the Issue , I should feel that nil misunderstandings nnd evils done had been moro tlnn removed nnd that n per manent guarantee of good will between the English speaking nations of the two pldea of the Atlantic had been attained for nil time. " WINGS WILL BK CLIPPED. Turning to the Transvaal 'question , Mr. Bnlfoiir eald : "Tho armed forces of the Chartered company will , of course , be- trans ferred to an Imperial officer without delay. There Is , therefore , no possibility ot n repe tition of the recent deplorable event. "The government proposes , as soon ns the pending trials nro concluded , that there shall bo a full Inquiry In'e the facts and history of the charter. " Passing then to the subject of Armenia. Mr. Balfour said : "Lord Salisbury's speech to the Non-conformist Unionist association accurately described Great Britain's obliga tion. There Is nothing In the Berlin or the Cyprus treaty requiring the powers or Eng land singly to go to war to compel the Turks to carry out their pledges. " Mr. Balfour polntoJ out the Impossibility of Individual action on the part of Great Britain. He said In this connection : "Short of bringing upon ourselves the prospect of n possible European conflagration , we could have done no moro In the direction ot helpIng - Ing these unhappy people than we have done. Let the Housa and the country remember that wo nlono among the nations of Europe ( I do not believe the United States , which I know at one time was with us ) feel deeply and earnestly on this oubjcct of the horrors done In Armenia. Foreign nations see the Inevitable evil which must overtake Europe If the eastern question Is reopened.

DlfieiiHxIiiK an Irrigation Scheme. NORTH LOUP , Neb. , Feb. 11. ( Spsclal. ) The attempt to form an Irrigation district of the territory lying contiguous to this point , the voting on which will begin Feb ruary 18 , Is meeting with much opposition , many farmers apparently believing that the formation of the district would work a great Injustice and hardship to many , especially to tho3j who did not see fit , from any reason , to Irrigate all their land. While there appears to bo no doubt that the district plan will enable them to get water at a much lower rate per acre than any corporation can furnish It , provided all of the territory cov ered would be Irrigated every season , they contend that this general useof the water cannot bo assured , and In this case It is feared that the regular and constant expense that will be necessitated by the new system may chlcfjy fall upon those who elect to us ? the water , and thus become moro burden some than they ore justified In assuming. The promoters of the district movement will hold a meeting nt the town hall this week , to which the public Is Invited , to consider the question in all its bearings , and thuu enable all to vote on the matter Intelligently.
