SOME CHARGES MADE
Against the Soldiers for the Killing
at Wounded Knee.
CAPTAIN W.ALLACE SHOT DOWN
Ej a Tonnjj Buck, aiid Tliis Started the
Indian Slaughter.
THE STOKI OF TUiI SlOl'X CHIEFTIIXS
Washikgtox, Feb. 11. The Sioux In
dian conference was concluded to-dav, and
the Indians will to-morrow or Friday start
for home, coin;; by way of Philadelphia
and Carlisle. The feature of to-dav's meet
ins; was the story of the fiht at 'Wounded
Knee, which was told by Turning Hawk
and American Horse. Turning Hawk said:
When our people, who had been frightened
away, were letornin to Pine llidse. and when
theriiad almost reacucd the apency. they were
met by the soldiers and surrounded, and finally
taken to Wounded Knee Creek, and there at a
Civen time their cuii were demanded, and
wbcii they bad de!i ered tbem np the men were
separated from their families and taken to a
certain spot, their cuns havine been Riren no.
When the pans were thus taken and the men
ibes separated, there nasaciazyman. a young
lnsnot ery bad inflnenc?. and in fact a no
body, arooni the bunch of Icrtians fired a cun,
and uf course the tinnR r.f a gun must have
been the breaking cf a m.litary rule of some
sort, because immediate! the soldiers returned
lire and the indiscriminate killing followed."
Shot Down an Officer.
The Commissioner of Indian Affairs here
interrupted to s.Ek: "Did the man fire at
the soldiers, or did he simply shoot in the
air?"
Spotted Horse He shot an officer in the
army; the first shot killed this officer.
Commissioner Did the soldiers return the
fire immcdi.ttelyor did the Indians keep np
their firing?"
Spotted Horse As soon as the first shot
was fired the Indians immediately began
draw-t jj their knives, and they were ex
horted from all &ides to desist, but this was
not obeyed, consequently the firing began
immediately on the part of the soldiers.
Turning if auk All the men who were in
a bunch were killed ritrht there, and those
who escaped that first fire got into the ravine,
and as they went along up the ravine a long
distance they were pursued on all sides by
the soldiers and shot down, as the dead
bodies showed afterward.
Commissioner In this fight did the
women take any part?
night or the Squaws.
Turning Hawk They had ho firearms to
fight with. The women were standing off at
a different place from that where the men
were stationed, and when the firing began
those of the men who escaped the first on
slaught went in one direction up the ravine,
and then the women, who were bunched
together at another place, went entirely in a
different direction, through an open field,
and the women shared the same fate as the
men whe went up the deep ravine.
AmericHn Horse said:
The men were separated from the women
aud they were surrounded by the soldiers, and
then came next the village o'f the Indians, and
that was entirely surrounded by the soldiers
also. When the firing began of course the peo
ple ti ho were standing immediately around the
young man who fired the first shot were killed
right together, and then they turned their
guns Hotchkiss guns, etc, upon the women
who were in the lodges, standing there under a
flag of truce, and of course as soon as they were
fired upon they fled, the men floeing in one di
rection and the women running in two different
direction., so that there were three general di
rections in which they took Sight.
Killed With Infants in Arms.
There was a woman with her infant in her
arms who was killed as she almost touched the
flag of truce, and the women and children, of
course, were strewn all along the circular vil
lage, until they were dispatched. Right near
the flag of truce another was shot down with
her infant. The child, not knowing that its
roomer was ueaa. was still nursing and that was
especially a very sad 6ight
The women, as they were fleeing with their
babes on their backs, were killed together,
shot right through. All the Indians fled in
these three directions. After most of them
had been killed a cry was made that all those
who were not killed or wounded should come
forth and they wonld be safe, and little bois,
who were not wounded, came out of their
places of refuge, and as soon as they came in
Fight a number of soldiers surrounded them
ana butchered tbem there.
Commissioner to Interpreter I wish you
would say to him that these are very serious
charges to make against the United States
array. I do not want any statements made,
that are not absolutely true, and I want any
one here that feels that the statements are
too strong to correct them.
Saddest Part of It.
American Horse Of course it wonld have
been all right if only the men were killed;
we would feel almost grateml lor it. But
the fact of the killing of the women, and
more especially the killing of the young
boys aud girls, who arc to make np the
future of the Indian people those being
killed is the saddest part of the whole thing,
and ire feel it very sorely.
The Commissioner Does American Horse
know these things of his own personal
knowledge, or has he been told them?
American Horse I was not there at the
time betore the burial of the bodies, but I
did go there with some of the Indian police
and the Indian doctor and a great many ot
the people, men from the agency, and we
went through the battl field and saw where
the bodies were from the track or the blood.
The Eev. Jlr. Cook, a Sioux half-breed,
pastor of an Kpiscopal Church at Pine
Ridge, who has at times acted as interpreter
during the conference, rose, and, among
other thing's, said:
Jluch has been said about the good spirit
with which the members of the Seventh Cav
alry went to iliat seat of action. It has been
said that the desire to avenge Custer's death
was entirely absent from their minds.
Avenging Custer's, Death.
In coming towards Chicago in company with
General Jliles, I talked itb one of his own
scouts who nasal most killed, because he as
compelled to fl with the Indians, being fired
upon by the men whom he tried to serve and
help. He told me that after lie recovered from
his flight and succeeded in getting among the
soldier- after they all got in from killing
Indians, an officer of high rank, he did not
tnow who. came to him and said with
rruch gluttonous thought in his voire:
Csow we have avenged Custer's death;" and
this scout said to him: i es, but yon had every
chance to nght for your lives that day."
These poor Indian people did not have that
opportunity to protect and fight for them
selves. If this is an indication ot the spirit of
a number of the men in that company I am sure
the Seventh Cavalry did not go there with the
kindest of motives, simply to bring these poor
people back.
After several others had spoken the Com
missioner declared the conference at an end.
COMMENCEMENT OF LENT.
Services In Churches Ushering In the Sea
son of Fast and Prayer.
Yesterday being Ash Wednesday, Catholics
and Episcopalians began their annual fast, or
rather abstinence, a custom that aside Irom re
ligious considerations might be profitably prac
ticed by many besides the members of those
churches, so far as health is con
cerned. Those who observe it, however,
do it from a religious conviction. The ab
stemiousness will be practiced fur 40 las.
feervices were held m the Catholic and Epis
copal churches, and in the foimer ashes ero
distributed to the people to impress on them
the fact that it is a penitential season. During
the season abstinence from amusements, as
well as trom feasting is enjoined, and attend,
ance at balls, parties and theaters is greatly
dirainihcd. "
At the Cathedral yesterday morning the at
tendance was only bounded by the capacity or
the building. Rev. Father Wall, rector, cele
brated mass, and during the Lenten season this
service will be had. and each evening at 730
o clock prajers will be offered and iniirntion
given. The season ends on March 29. Easier
buuday.
hpecla! services will be held in the Episco
pal churches during the week.

TO SAVE THE WHARVES.
Remonstrance Against the BUI for the Con
version of the Biver Front Into Parks
and Markets Injury to Commerce and
Manufacturing Alleged.
A remonstrance largely signed by citizens
of Pittsburg and Ticinity has been sent to
the Senate and House of Representatives,
petitioning those bodies not to enact the bill
now pending entitled, "An act authorizing
cities of the second class to change, alter, regu
late and improve public wharves or landings,
and approving any such as have heretofore been
made."
The remonstrance says: "The bill is special
legislation, and its title disguises its true and
only purpose. It is Intended to apply only to
the city of Pittsburg. Last vear E. M. Bigelow,
Chier of the Department of Public Works, un
dertook to convert the Allegheny river wharf
into a public park. He was indicted m the
county courts and found guilty and or
dered to abate the nuisance within six
months. By this bill you are
asked to legalize a public nuisance.
Only a small water front remains avail
able for public use. The Monongabela wharf
above Bmithfleld street is occupied by the Bal
timore and Ohio Railroad, and a large portion
is cut off by the approach to thd Point bridge.
One-half of the distance from the Point to the
Sixth street bridge is now occupied by the
Western Pennsylvania Exposition Society.
This bill is intended to take the remaining half
for a public park, so that on the Allegheny
river there will be no wharf except three short
squares from Sixth to ivinth streets. It is re
garded unwise in the extreme to permit the
free use ot the wharves In this manner, as tho
shipment of merchandise and manufactures to
and from the citv will be seriously hampered."
The remonstrance also objects in the follow
ing language to the act authorizing cities Of tne
second class to rent or lease portions of the
wharves for market purposes:
"There is no necessity for such legislation.
It will be impossible to establish a market with
out interfering with the wharf, and such priv
ilege is not intended to affect the Allegheny
river wharr, which the Legislature by the act
of March 31. 1SSS, declared should be and re
main a public wharf or landing foreter. Pri
vate proneny was taken practically for nothing
on the faith of that legislative declaration,
which would not have happened if such use as
is proposed by the present bill had been In con
templation." The above has been numerously signed and
forwarded to Harrisburg.
NOBILITY IN DISTRESS.
Romantic Story of Otto Von Bulow A
Grandson of tho Famous Count Forced
to Beg in America Aided on His Way
to Harrisburg.
A man wbfe gave his name as Otto Yon
Bnlow nnd claimed to be a grandson of the
Count Yon Bulow who was a lieutenant in
the army commanded by General Blucher,
which saved Wellington from defeat at the
battle of Waterloo, passed through Pittsburg
yesterday.
Yon Bnlow is about 30 years of age. He
claims to be a portrait painter and linguist, be
ing able to converse in not less than a dozen
difforent languages. He is passing throueh a
period In his life which might be called a "hard
luck" epoch. He is in very destitute circum
stances, having come to Pittsburg without a
cent in bis possession, very poorly clad and
with no visible means of making money for a
while yet at least.
He says that abont four years ago he was at
tending a university at Innspruck, a small
village in Germany. While there he became
engaged in a quarrel with a fellow student
over some trivial matters which ended in a
challenge to fight a duel. The dnel was fougat
and Von Bulow came out victorious, having
killed his opponent. The facts of the matter
leaked out. and it was not long until he was
forced to leave his native country and hunt
safety in some other land. Accordingly he
came to America and went to Milwaukee to
live. He made a living by painting portraits.
About a year ago he stopped a runaway
horse and rescued a little girl, but was Injured
so badly that be has not been able to work
since that ttme. The child's parents took care
of him. He again ttied portrait painting, but
found he was unable to work. Aided by some
friends be started for Philadelphia. When he
reached Pittsburg he was taken to the Depart
ment of Charities and given a ticket to Harris
burg. OBJECTING TO THE COUNT.
Examining the Ballots Cast In tho Craig
Stewart Congressional Contest.
The contest for a seat in the next Congress
between Messrs. Craig and Stewart from the
Twenty-fourth district ground along again yes
terday until 6 o'clock In the office of Attorney
W.J. Brennen. Messrs. Robb and Kitzsimmons
for Colonel Stewart dropped in from time to
time and almost as frequently entered their
protest against the opening ot tbe ballot boxes,
but Notary J. A Skelly, of McKeesport, kept on
in the even tenor of his route and the following
results were announced:
In Knoxville borough 23 unnumbered votes
were found to have been cast for Colonel Stew
art, but Mr. Robb made the point that th- first
53 votes cast had not been numbered and 33 of
tbem were for Craig: Counsel for Colonel Stew
art say they will show more than enough irreg
ularity on the other side to offset all that can be
piled against him. Three districts in Miffln
were found to have cast 21 vote for A. 3. Stew
art which were counted for Andrnw Stewart.
It was very dry w ork and each claims so far to
have the bulge. The only variations were oc
casional tilts between opposing counsel. Those
for Colonel Stewart insist that Brennen is ex
ceeding the bounds of his authority, bnt he
pavs no attention to the protests.
Tbe bearing was continued nntil after 6
o'clock last evening, and it was announced that
it would be tesumed this morning. Colonel
Stewart expresses confidence that his seat is
safe, but tbe other side say bis 123 majority has
already gone glimmering.
The hearing will la a week, and Colonel
Stewart has then SO day3, for tbe filing of ob
jections and taking of testimony.
MUST FOLLOW THE ETJLES.
The Board of Fire Escapes Kef uses to Issue
Certificates.
The Board of Firo Escapes refused to issue
three certificates yesterday morning. The
escapes at 1ST Seventh avenue and at tbe News
boys Home were not approved because tnera
was no ladder from the second story to the
ground, aud the one at tbe Colnmbas Club was
refused a certificate because it was placed be
tween two buildings aud does not meet the re
quirements of either.
Clerk Dr. Lessus, of tbe board, says people
should not pay for the erection of fire escapes
until a certificate is issued. The manufactur
ers know tbe rules and will be compelled to
live up to them.
A report ot the year's work of the Board of
Fire Escapes, shows that 17 certificates for
escapes erected andanproved have been issued,
the majority being put up since tho Dlxbn fire
on Pcnn avenue in December. The board has
granted 3$ applications for Hi e escape permits
and the escapes are now in course of erection.
More applications have been made since the
Dixon hro than had been during two years pre
vious. P20SP2CTS EOE BUSINESS.
Tho VTestlnghouse Chicago Agent Speaks
Well of the Tutore.
J. L, Barclay, the Chicago representative of
the Westinghouse Electtlc Company, was in
the city yesterday. He stopped over on his
way home from New York, where be had been
closing up a contract, to see Vice President
Bannister. Mr. Barclay Bald the prospects for
the business in the West were verv good, and
he was laying his plans now to capture a num
ber ot orders. During the next two months the
bulk of the contracts for the year w ill be made,
as the various companies are getting ready to
build their roads during the summer.
Vice President Bannister reports progress in
the affairs of the company. No large sub
scriptions of stock were 'taken ,ycstcrdav.
Nothing definite will be known until Mr. Wes"
ingnouse returns from New York. He may ai
rlve to-day, but the chances are he won't return
until Saturday.

MONEY. FOR MINERS.

THBIAEM KEGARDED WITH -SUSPICION
rtr-r-CtAI, TELEQIUM TO TUB DISPATCH. 1
Cohjmbtjs, lteb. 11. One of the features
of the National Miners' Convention to-day
was the receipt of a telegram from Lucien
"Sanial, of Kew York, the head of the
Socialist party, stating he had collected
abont $700, subject to the wishes of tbe con
vention, with heartiest sympathy for the
down-trodden miners. The information
was received with demonstrations ot ap
proval, and (500 ot the money was ordered
sent to the miners of Alabama, and $200 to
Pennsylvania.
At a recent convention in Detroit, Presi
dent Gompers, of the Federation, en
deavored to prevent Sanial from taking
part in the proceedings, claiming they could
not aflord to recognize Socialism, but the
miners championed him nnd he was ad
mitted. From that time on the Socialistic
champion began to raise money for the
miners and announces that he will continue
his efforts to secure for them the eight-hour
labor day. Chris Evans, of New York,
Secretary of the American Federation of
Labor, sent a telegram of sympathy and en
couragement.
Want a Separate District.
The Ohio coal operators have made a
formal proposition, which will be placed
before the convention to-morrow, askipg
that they be made a separate district and
free from the other States, so that they may
be able to deal with the miners of Ohio di
rect. It is not at all probable the conven
tion will consider the proposition favorably,
for the reason it would break the inter-State
agreement, which has been existing for sev
eral years, and would, in effect, destroy tbe
work in the interest of harmony and con
ciliation. which has been accomplished at
the convention through a series of several
years.
This action was suggested to the Ohio
operators by the strong probability that the
operators of the Pittsburg district will be
able to pay an advance over the scale, which
tbe Ohio operators will not be able to meet
en account of the unfavorable conditions.
The pointin favor of the Pittsburg operators,
it is claimed, is tbe partial failure of natural
gas and the return to coal, which has
brought back a local trade most enviable,
that amounts to at least half tbe coal
formerly used, with the prospect that the
amount of home consumption willbe greatly
increased.
A Bequest from ConnellsvUle.
The convention has also received a com
munication from the smaller operators in
tbe Connellsville coke region, which does not
include the Prick and other big concerns,
asking that an arrangement be made by
which they can resume at the old figures
and continue until some satisfactory basis
can be agreed upon.
A meeting Of the National Executive
Board and tbe District Board was held this
evening, at which it was decided not to con
cur in the proposition unless all th: oper
ators of the Connellsville region will
sign such an agreement. It is stated that
about one-third o.f the output comes from
the smaller operators, and by allowing them
to resume they would be able to. supply the
demands for tbe time being and assist tbe
large concerns in their fight. The miners
recognize it as only a ruse to aid the big
men In the deal.
