Missoula, Mont.. Dec. 19. The four
Indian murderers, La Li See, Pjerre Paul,
Antley and Pascala, were hinged this morn
ing at the Court House in this city. All
died game. Pierre Paul and Antley smiling
ly 1 ode eoodby to their Iriends, when the
caps were drawn oer their faces. All were
cut dou 11 in 20 minutes after the trap was
sprung. Their necks were broken.
The execution of these lour Indian mur
derers ends a chapter of crime which stands
almost unparalleled in the history of the
Northwest. Only one of the lour committed
murder for plunder. The others killed, not
for revenge or plunder, nor were they actu
ated by the delirium of diunkenness, which
often drives meu to the commission of felon
ies, but they commuted murder solely to
satisfy fiendish desires. They were ever
restless, and possessed of that htreditary
roving spirit.
Deeds of Ture FlendKhnes.
They were eer desirous of emulating the
ccts 01 the hold warriors of old, whose deeds
of daring they have often heard recounted
in the tepees during the long winter months.
Their jnung hearts craved blood, and thus
they were led to the commission of the
atrocious deeds for which they have all
paid tne penalty 01 death.
These men had terrorized the whites for a
long time, and life was insecure within the
vicinity ot their haunts. They were called
"bad" Indians by the peaceful redskins 01
the reservation, who were icarltil lest their
scalps should dangle at the lodge pile of the
murderous wretches and modi credit is due
old Eucis, known as "Big Kni e," chiet ol
the Kootenai tribe, for the apprehension and
punishment ol these and other copper
colored criminals.
E-irly in the spring of I8SU a prospector
named J. M. Dunn, recently trom Iowa,
purchased an ouilit at Post Fall, Idaho,
and, after spending a few days in the Cccur
d'AIeaes, started for the Flathead couutry,
in Montana.
The 3Xi rtler Committed 13 Fascala.
The journrv proved a "at.il one. His in
tention was to go by av of Horse Plains.
Nothing was heard of him until one year
later last spring when Antolne Finley, a
member of the Pend il'Oieille tribe, while
out hunting, discovered the clothing and
bones of an unknown person in the vicinity
of Angel Hill, about midway between Day
ton and Deuiersville. The clothes were
Identified as those worn hy Duun, the pros
pector, but it was by the merest accident
that the crime was fastened to Pascala, a
Kootenai Indian. Antoine obtained a con
tension from Pascala. "With a fiendish glee
inhiseje, Pascala said: "I killed him just
like I would kill a grasshopper."
Antoine imparted this information to the
officials, and shortly afterward Sheriff
Houston, of Missoula county, and a posse
succeeded in capturing the sell-confessed
criminal, but not without much trouble
F.iscala pleaded for his life, saying that he
loniniitted the deed in sclf-delense. It was
mbsequently shown, however, that Pascala
overtook Dean shortly alter he had crossed
Dayton creek, and that he rode along with
him until they reached Angel Hill. Pas
cala dropped behind his victim and deliber
ately shot him, robbing his person and
stealing his horse and outfit.
Antlej Kills a White rrospector.
Antley belonged to the Kootenai tribe.
His crime was the murder 0. a white pros
pector. The following story is told by the
interpreter:
In the fall of 1SS7 a pirty of six Kootenai
Indians started from Pleasant Valley to go to
Tooacco Plains to attend a "sun dance." The
party consisted of Antley, Antoine. John
Antien. Koosta. Jerome and Dominic, all joung
bucks nreil wit'i tlie -pint of their ancestors.
At the close of the nr-r das' journey the In
dians camped near vi olf creel; for the night.
Nearby a party of white prospectors were
seated around a camp fire, wholly unmindful
ana timware of the imminent danger. No
booner were the whites discovered than one of
the Indians proposed that they kill the "pale
faces..' This was prompil agreed to. Crawl
lug stealthily toward the unsuspecting whites,
until within a fen paces. Aunen raiscil his gun
and nrcd. Two of the prospectors tell, and the
temaimn: one attempted" to escape, but was
Jo'! wed and killed by Antic).
The news inicKlv spread to the mining
ramps in thai ticinity, when Jerome and
Anneniwcte run down and lnchcd by the
incensed miners. The others escaped and
eluded pursuit, until this last summer, when
they were captured hy the .Sheriff and a posse
of determined men.
The Crimo of Pierre Panl and Im La See.
Pierre Paul and La La See were probably
two of the most desperate criminals known
in the history o Western Montana, and 1
only the most diligent search and untiring 1
efforts of determined officers secured their
apprehension and conviction. Their crimes
were similar to that committed by Antley.
Its commission was without motive, except
to gratify a bloodthirsty desire.
On or about September 1 Pierre Paul and
L La See, in company with three other
Kootenai Indians, spent the night in La La
See's tepee, near Iiavalli, on the Flathead
reservation. On the following morning two
white men chanced to pas the camp, when
they were perceived by Li La See, who had
come out to water his horse.
Eeturning to his cumDanions, La Li See
said: "Let's go out and kill them." A
plot was at once formed and the Indians
filed out of their lodge, wheu one of the
copper-colored wretches asked the white
meu where they were going.
Dropped Dead in Their Tracks.
Thev replied that they were on their wav
to Missoula, and, without suspecting that
the Indians had designs upon their lives,
started off. No sooner had they turned
their backs than they dropped dead iu their
tracks. A bullet from Pierre Paul's rifle
had killed one of them, while La La See
was responsible for the death ol the other.
Their loud boasting of what thev were
pleased to term an achivement of glory gave
them away.
The history of the chase and capture of
these two slippery criminals would make an
interesting volume. After the Sheriff had
received intormation ol their crimes and had
commenced to keep a lookout for them, word
was received at his office about every two
weeks that they hao. been seen, but they had
no sooner appeared than they were out of
sight again.
One day during the summer of 1889, Sher
ifi Heylron, upon learning that the two
Indian murderers were at Ravalli, got ud a
posse and proceeded to that point, arriving
there after raidnizht.
The Inhabitants Are Terrorized.
Only a few persons could be found who
were willing to divulge anything, as there
s-enied to be a general fear that the desper
ate redskins would kill anyone revealing
anything of their whereabouts. It was
learned the next morning that the Indians
had gone to Duncan, on the Jocco reserva
tion. The Sheriff and his little band of
deputies took a freight train for Duncan.
They got 'n a thicket near the station,
and while rceonnoitering, one of the officers
'found a squaw lying flat upon the ground,
face down. This was regarded as.a bad sign,
and it was thought she had been ou the
lookout for their approach and had given
the alarm. About this time an Indian
was seen to rise out of another
part of the thicket with .1 gun
at his shoulder pointed at the
posse. Jim Conley, quick as a flash,
dropped the redskin in his tracks. The
Indian he had so suddenly sent to the
"happy hunting grounds" proved to be a
murderer. The men most wanted could not
be found in that vicinity, and it was subse
quently learned that the officers had been
sent to Duncan in order to
Throw- Them Off the Trail,
for thev had hardly left Bavalli when
Pierre Paul and La La See reappeared.
This expedition, like many others, proved
unsuccessful, and it was not until old Chief
Eneas lent his aid that the officers were en
abled to get these two murderous wretches
within their clutches.
The capture and execution of this quar
tet of murderers has cost in the neighbor
hood of 50,000.
FRAUD FOUND HIM OUT.
A S01DIEH D2A.WS A BOGUS PENSION
F0H 20 LONG YEABS.
He Impcrsomttccl Another and Settled in
tlio Tar West Under His Comrade's
Name The Rightful Owner of the Name
Applies for Ills Pension.
Yaxktox, S. D., Dec. 19. Special Ex
aminer Godtrey, of the Pension Depart
ment, created a sensation here to-day by ar
resting Charles Lofil-r, a well-known citi
zen, for impersonating a claimant for pen
sion and presenting a fraudulent claim, and
for perjury in support of his claim.
Early in 1861 George V. "Weisle enlisted
in Company D, Fifth Itegiment United
States Cavalry. He served three years,Jand
re-enlisted and received his veteran bounty.
He served one year of his second term and
then secured the discharre papers of one of
his comrades, Charles Loftier. Subsequently
he came to Dakota, and located in Yankton
20 vcars ago. He has goue by the name of
Loffler all these 20 years.
Some time last spring Charles Loffler ap
plied for a pension, and in the regular
course of events it was discovered Charles
Loffler was already a pensioner. The case
was strange, and Examiner Godfrey was
given it to look up. The offense is a peni
tentiary crime.
George "Weisle makes a full confession of
the whole matter, and nothing can save him
from punishment except the clemency of
the Court. Charles LcfHer, the man whom
George "Weisle sought to impersonate, is
doorkeeper of the White House in Wash
ingiou, which position he has filled since
1861. He was a member of Company H
Fifth Beeiwent, United Stales Army." He
and Loeffler were on detail as orderlies at
theheadquaitersof the armyot the Potomac,
for about two years.
TROOPS CORRALLING THE HOSTTLES.
They Must Soon Surrender or Meet the Fate
of Their Comrades.
Rapid City. S. D., Dec 19. Four hun
dred 01 the Seventeenth Infantry from
Fort Rnssell embarked here and at
other points on the Elk Horn Railway last
niiht, and took up their line of march for
General Carr's camp, at the junction of
Rapid creek and Cheyenne rivers. General
Miles tas concentrated at that point the
Eighth and Sixth Cavalry, the Seventeenth
Infantry, stouts and artillery, making a
fighting forct of about 1,200 effective men.
There is a large encimpment o! hostiles
in what is called the Grass Basin in the Bad
Lands, about ten miles southeast of Cirr's
camp, from which the thieving forages have
been committed on the ranches. General
Miles is making dispositions to guard every
pass and outlet from the camp, and has is
sued orders for the cavalry to scont and
intercept Sitting Bull's followers, who are
supposed to be en route to join these hos
tiles. The escape of the Indians is being
cnt off. They must soon surrender, or like
Sitting Bull, die fighting.
A DOUBLE DEATH.
While Preparing to Hang a Murderer, a
Sheriff Kxpircs.
SiinitBROOKE, Que., Dec. 19. Remi La
Montagne, the murderer of Napoleon
Michel, his brothpr-in-Iaw, was hanged in

DENIAL OP THB CliAIMAST'S ST0EI
tSPXCTAL TZLEQRAM TO THE DISrATCII.1
New Yobk, Dec. 19. Four suits nave
been begun la Brooklyn by Mary Flanncry
against Eleanor Donnellan and her daugh
ter, Eleanor R, Donnellau, the summons
and complaints having been filed this after
noon with the Clerk of the City Court
Mrs. Flannery's purpose is to eject the de
fendants from certain property in Brooklyn,
valued at 5250,000, and to recover one-tenth
of the property. If the plaintiff is success
ful in these suits, similar suits will be begun
to recover the same share of the entire prop
erty, variously estimated to be worth from
St,000,000 to $1,500,000. Henderson Bene
dict is counsel for the plaintiff. He says
that the suits have been brought in good
faith, and will be prosecuted with the utmost
vigor.
The estate involved in the litigation be
longed to Cornelius Donnellan, who died on
May 1G. The plaintiff, Mary Flannery,
says she is his daughter, and the defendants
are his wi'e and eldest daughter. Mr. Don
nellan for 20 years preceding his death had
been recognized as one of the most extensive
and successful builders aud real estate spec
ulators in Brooklyn. Although his wealth
was estimated in the millions, he lived iu a
very unostentatious style, with bis wife and
children, in the moderate three-story brick
building in Pacific street, in which he died.
Xo Will "Was Ift Behind.
He left uo will, so far as is known. The
records, however, show that deeds had been
filed' from time to time, transferring some
of Mr. Donnellan's real estate to his wiie
and his daughter, Eleanor, in each case for
nominal consideration. It was generally
supposed, durintr their long residence in
Brooklyn, that Mr. and Mrs. Donnellau had
but nine children, four sons and five
Jaughters, but if the allegations in the
sworn complaint of Mary Flannery arc true,
there is a sixth daughter, namely,herself.
Mrs. Flannery is now 49 vears old. She
was married to Patrick Flannery iu her
16th year, and she asserts that a complete
estrangement had existed between herself,
her parents and the other members 01 her
family ever since htr marriage. Her hus
band is a well known hustler and Democratic
poiitician at Cornwall-on-the-Hudson. and
one of his sons, William Jerome Flannery,
is an actor, whose fains rests in part on one
of the characters in the "Old Mail." The
papers in the case set forth three alleged
facts: Cornelius Donnellan was born in the
village of Crosskeil, County Meath, Ireland.
He subsequently lived in Dublin, where he
married Eleanor Ruxton. After his marriage
he moved to Longford, where for a few years
he kept a marble yard.
Site "Was Left In Ireland.
Forty-five years ago he started with his
wife and oldest child for this co'untry, leav
ing his second child, Mary (the present
plaintiff), in the care of some of his wile's
relatives in .Dublin. "When her parents
came to America Mary was only 3 years
old, and it was not until she was in her 10th
year that she heard Irom them. She then
received a letter from her mother, telling
her how glad she was to discover her and
in'onuiiig her that she had made arrange
ments to bring her to America. A copy of
this letter is embodied in the complaiut,and
the original, it is declared, is in possession
of the plaintiff.
When she was in her 11th year Mary
crossed the ocean andxjoined her parents in
Brooklyn. She alleges that during the two
subsequent years she remained with them,
while they did not treat her as their daugh
ter, they always introduced her as such and
that she was kuowfjas such, not only to all
the members of tlic family, bnt to any vis
itors who happened to call. From the very
first, she says, her mother exhibited a strong
repugnance to her, while her father was in
clined to treat her kindly until her moth
er's influence clianged his disposition in
that lespect. Her eldest sister and the
other children, who were bora during her
absence in Ireland, all seem to have the
hostile ftelingot the mother.
Slocked hy Brothers and Sisters.
They mocked her Irish accents and
simple ways.andshe was compelled to work
and drudge in the kitchen, while her
brothers anil sisters were going to school.
Her mother's harshness increased and she
looks back on the two years speut under her
parents' roof as the most miserable in her
existence. She was compelled, she says, to
get up early and start the kitchen fire, and
when she was late she always received a
severe whipping.
Her brothers and sisters seemed to take
much pleasure in these punishments, and
for the purpose of making her oversleep
herself, were in the habit of darkening the
windows of her little bedroom in the garret.
After enduring these torments for two years
she hired herself out as a servant, and it
was while she was so employed in this city
that she metand married Patrick Flannery.
All intercourse she says between her and her
family was broken off from the date of her
marriage and has never been restored. The
fact that she had married a Roman Catholic
tended to make the estrangement more com
plete, all the other members of the lamily
being Episcopalians.
Samuel It. Donnellan, one of the sons,
who is a cigar manufacturer, said when in
formed of the suit: ''This is indeed a sur
prise. I never heard anything about this
woman, and she is either crazy or an im
postor. I don't believe there is a word of
truth in the woman's complaint"

Hot Springs station and emptied
his revolver at a coach loaded with pas

passenger was dangerously wounded, but
afterward recovered. Rogers immediately
escaped. At one time he was corralled
among some rocks at the foot of a precipice.
He succeeded in standing off the officers for
lour days, but on the morning of the fifth
it was lound tliat he had scaled the
cliff and had started across the
mountains toward Logan. He was
in his shirt sleeves and spent several nights
thus at the snow line. His flight across the
mountain was indicated to the officers by a
flock of buzzirds which "followed him for
days, expecting to get a chance to pick his
bones. Rogers cursed the birds and threw
rocks at them, but they stuck to him. Near
Logan he entered a farmhouse to get some
thing to eat, but was bjtrayed aud arrested.
He was placed in the county j lil at Og

remarkable case of polygamy was brought
to the attention of the police and the much

fourth marriage, September 12, 1889, with
William Lebhardt.
She lived with him until five months ago,

EEVIiSWS BI BRADSTEEET AND DUN
ISPECIAL TELEOnASI TO TOE DISFATCK.I
New York, Dec. 19. Snecial telegrams
to Bradstreet's show varying financial con
ditions at several important trade centers as
compared with last week, with no marked
change in the geueral situation either way.
There is less actual stringency at the larger
Eastern cities, due to the arrival of gold
from abroad, to a comparative improvement
in. the condition of the banks, and to a wide
spread belief that the underlying tendency
in commercial -circles is toward improve
ment. Thus, wool is in more active request,
as are hides and leather and some lines of
drygoods, owing to the holiday season.
The movement of goods in seasonable
lines had been relatively quiet at almost all
points. Itecent heavy lailures and the
large increase in the total numoer of mer
cantile failures have attracted attention, the
South having reported from three to five
times as many each week of late as early in
the autumn, and the far AYest twice as
many.
Unfavorable Markets for Products.
The course of prices is not stimulating, as
hog products, corn, oats and sugar are
lower, while pig iron is weaker, though un
changed. Wool, lumber aud anthracite
coal are no loner, l'roloiiged colder weath
er is needed West at several points. West
ern banks are still quite conservative in the
matter of loans, but rates, except at Cincin
nati and San Francisco, are no higher.
Stock speculation is very dull, pending
the ratification of the AVestern railway
agreement and the development of financial
and currency legislation. The sentiment of
the street is unfavorable to activity in
stocks until after January 1. The money
market is easier at New York, Philadejphia
and Boston, there being a return to time
loans and somewhat more liberal purchases
of commercial paper. The bank failure at
Chicago causes no disturbance there.
Drygoods are in light demand in whole
sale lines, as is usual at this. period. The
jobbing trade is particularlydull. A fair
movement of goods on order is reported by
ageuts. 1'rices arc generally unchanged.
Brown cottons have moved more freely at
concession'. Print cloths are steady. .Re
tail trade is active.
Favorable Wool and Cotton Reports.
Wool is in strong tone, notwithstanding
the light demand. Holders manifest confi
dence in present rates. Ohio, Michigan
and Texas wools are most active. Cotton is
dull and prices practically unchanged.
The 1890 cotton report to 'Bradstreet't is
based on replies from 1,615 correspondents
in 615 cotton counties in 10 States. The
indicated outturn is for a large crop, proba
bly reaching 8,100,000 bales, of heavyweight
but lower quality than last year, owing to
less favorable picking weather.
Bank clearings at 54 cities for the week
ended December 18, are 81,117,213,517, a de
crease from this week last year of 3.2 per
cent. New York City's clearing, which
constitute 58.8 per cent of the grand total,
are less than those lor the same period -last
year by 3.2 p.-rcent, while at 53 other cities
the gain N 3.8 per cent.
Business lailures rcnorted to Bradstreet's
number 370 in the United States this week,
against 341 last week, and 330 this week last
venr. Canada had 35 this week, against 40
last week. The total number of failures in
the United States from January 1 to date is
10,212, against 11,353 iu a like portion of
1880.
It. G. Dun Beports Less Confidence.
E. G. Dun's weekly review says: "Busi
ness continues large for the season, but
there is perceptible a less feeling of confi
dence. The causes appear to be, first, the
prospect of important monetary legislation,
the effects of which are not clearly foreseen;
second, frequent failures and greater diffi
culties in making collections; and third, a
less satisfactory coudition in some large
branches of industry. Probably more peo
ple are affected as to business undertakings,
often unconsciously by uncertainty about
financial legislation and its efforts than by
any other cause.
Thouzh the rate for money on call is
lower than a week ago, and money is-easier
at Boston and Philadelphia, there is still
stringency at most points throughout the
country. Complaints of slow collections
have rarely been more general, and in many
cases settlements can he made only with
notice of renewals.
Better Hopes for Next Month 1'revall.
Bnt in all quarters there is hope that alter
January 1 things may improve in this re
spect, if legislative prospects do not mean
while cause greater shrinkage of credits
and curtailment of purchases.
Foreign influences are not now disturb
ing. Exports of products for two weeks of
DecemDer Irom New York show a gain of 8
per cent over those of last year, and the
total last December was hardly ever sur
passed. Though imports continue heavy,
they are greatly exceeded by exports at
present. Exports of cotton thus far this
month exceed those of last year, and also
of provisions, but there is a heavy decrease
in grain, caused by speculative prices here.
Trade 'at the South is lair; healthy at New
Orleans, with larger cotton shipments: dull
at Memphis, but more confident at Little
Bock; slightly improved at Montgomery
and irood at Nashville; less confident at
Jacksonville, aud at Atlanta accumulations
of cottou are large.
Condition of Trade in the West.
Money is very close at all points, banks
helping customers as far as they can, but
collections are not' average. Across the
Mississippi, St. Louis has colder weather,
iavonug all lines of trade, bnt at Kansas
City holiday trade is below the average.
At Denver, trade is only fair; at Salt Lake,
improviug some; at Omaha, lair; at Minne
apolis, steady for lumber and improving in
prices lor flour, and at St. Paul, confidence
is returning. Collections in this region are
at most points fair. ' x
At Chicago receipts of wheat are a third
below last year's; ot hides larger and of
other products about the same. Money is
firm, but regular business is supplied, and
there is confidence in the immediate future.
At Milwaukee and Detroit trade is good; at
Cleveland fair and at Cincinnati very quiet
in wholesale lines. Pittsburg reports more
confidence in trade in manufactured iron,
in glass slower and in Bessemer blooms
lower. Banks are less apprehensive, but
cautious.
Collections Are Becoming More Difficult.
Confidence improves at Boston, and sales
of merchandise are increasing. Although
money is easier at Philadelphia, the note
worthy feature is the general difficulty of
collections, especially in iron, pamt, oils,
jewelry and glass. Trade is fair in all these
lines aud glass plates are stiffcr, but lower
prices are expected in wool and the demaud
:or tobacco is light.
The anthracite coal trade is demoralized,
and restrictions ol output do not restrict, a
general breakup of the combination being
apprehended. .Iron shows no improvement
at Philadelphia or here. The demand for
finished products generally is slacker, and
closing of more furnaces is likely to be
forced. Copper is unsettled, but tin is a
shade stronger at 20.85 cents, and lead at
4.10. The drygoods trade feels the influence
of recent failures and of stringency in com
mercial loans.
Tendency of Speculation Is Downward.
In the speculative markets the tendency
has generally been downward, thongh wheat
is a higher than a week ago, in spite of
'phenomenally small exports and accumula
ting stocks. 'Corn is 2c lower; pork 75
cents per barrel, hogs 45 cents per 100
20, 1590:' ' " ' 7 ' 1
pounds, and oil a fraction lower. Cotton
and coffee are unchanged for the week. It
is noteworthy that the speculative markets
are all hesitating in the feeling that mone
tary legislation may indefinitely alter the
situation- Largely increased immediate
supplies of money, by imports of gold and
treasury disbursements, have less effect than
might be expected.

that everyone has experienced, and it will
meet with an enthusiastic welcome and
the point is that 40 years ago when the

He is Charged With Killins an American
Citizen of Mexico.
A TERRIBLE TRAGEDY LOOKED FOR
El Paso, Tex., Dec. 19. Bolton, who
has been in jail at Jnarez since last April
for the killing of J- H. Cavitt, escaped from
confinement yesterday morning and is now
on American soil. Both Cavitt and Bolton
were wealthy cattlemen, owning extensive
interests in Mexico. They had been part
ners, and some misunderstanding arose con
cerning money matters which involved the
two in difficulties and finally ended in
Bolton's shooting Cavitt in the main street
at Juarez. Biltonwas placed in tbe jail
in the city. Since that time he enjoyed the
full liberty of the yard, being allowed to
walk about and receive visitors.
Yesterday was the usual visitors' day and
a great many called upon him. Among
them were a large number ot American
soldiers, some of whom came on foot and
others in a carriage. They went out singly
and in pairs, and it is positively known
that Bolton, disgni-ed in an army coat and
a false mustache, walked out of the jail, en
tered a carriage aud was Immediately driven
to (his city. This morning he was seen at
Bicon, o'n the north-bound train.
Cavitt was a citizen of Mexico, but Bolton
had never given up his citizenship in this
country. On that account it will be a mat
ter of difficulty to extradite him. Cavitt's
brother is hot on Bolton's trail, and should
they ever meet tronble would ensue, as both
are known to be brave and determined men.
