WILLIAM C. SEGLKT - Pnb'.Ubc r.
THURSDAY. JULY 38, 1904.

Vice President—C. W. Fairbanks.
Supreme Judge—John P. Elkin.
Congress—Hon. Geo. F. Huff.

POLITICAL.
At the conference, held in Butler,
last Thursday, Senator Williams gave
way to Mr. McNees of Kittanning. and
made him the nominee of the Butler-
Armstrcng district for State Sena
tor. Mr. McNees is a native of this
connty, having been born near Hallston.
He went to Kittanning when a young
man, and has for years been President
and Manager of the large fire-brick
plant there He is a very popular man
in Armstrong county and his ability
and fitness for the office are undisputed.
The Bntler Postoffice appointment is
"hung up," and it is said that the Pres
ident requested the P. M. General to
hold all Presidential postoffice appoint
ments for a time —possibly until after
the election. Congressman Huff, be
fore leaving for Europe, is said to have
recommended Eli Robinson.
At Jefferson City, last Thursday, the
Missouri Democrats nominated Circuit
Attorney Folk of St. Louis for Gover
nor. Folk cleaned up the city, and
promises to clean up the state if
elected.
President Roosevelt is preparing his
"letter of acceptance" at his summer
home at Oyster Bay, L L
Davis, the Democratic Vice Presi
dential nominee, has subscribed a mill
ion to the campaign fnnd, and the Dems
will fight for New York, New Jersey,
Delaware, West Virginia, Connecticut,
and some other states. They feel sure
of the "Solid Sonth" and some of the
border states; bnt Circuit Attorney Folk
of Bt. Louis has been sending so many
Democrats to jail that Missouri may go
Republican.
All the Democratic guesses on the
Presidential election start off with the
"Solid Sonth." For instance, here is
August Belmont's latest:
The Solid South 151
Maryland, West Virginia and Delaware... If
Sew York. New Jersey anil Connecticut.. 5s
Total 2-T
And then, as it takes 230 electors to
win, he names nearly all the other
Northern states as being "debatable."
Belmont is one of Parker's financial
backers.
The troubles of the Democratic lead
ers seem not to have ended with the St.
Louis convention. All last week con
ferences were held at New York and
Esopus on the question of the national
chairmanship, and without practical
remit. The eastern wing of the party
is anxious for complete control, and,
therefore, objects to Thomas M. Tag
gart, of Indiana, as chairman, as he
oomes from a state in which the senti
ment is largely with Mr Bryan on the
silver question. They believe that his
selection wonld again alienate the east
ern gold men, and their votes wonld not
only be lost, bnt they would refuse to
contribute to the campaign fund. The
sinews of the campaign are expected to
oome mainly from the east, and espec
ially Wall street. Therefore, Senator
Gorman or William F. Sheehan would
be preferable as national chairman.
Both of these gentlemen are inclined to
escape the honor if possible.
THE strike by the employees of the
great meat-packing establishments of
Chicago was resumed, Monday. On
Tuesday there were riots, during which
two men were shot and one beaten, ana
the situation was considered serious.
Yesterday part of Swift & Co. 's estab
lishment was burned.
Walter's Dam.
The last high water marked the be
ginning of the end of the old dam at
Walter's mill. Several atones were
washed out near the centre and the
first big flood will probably wash down
the masonary of the breast. The floods
of last March washed off the heavy
plank and timber covering. The first
dam on the site wss bnilt by John and
Samuel Cunningham, the founders of
Bntler, in 1797 or 171W to furnish power
for their mill, which was the second
founded in the connty, the first being
bnilt by Bernard Marshall on Break
neck creek. Until the intrusion of the
railroads the Cnnningham mill, and its
mrronnding, at the foot of a steep hill
where half a dozen giant rocks forced a
bend almost at right angles in the
course of the creek was one of the
beautiful and picturesque sports of
Bntler county.
Subsequent owners to the Cunning
ham's were John Negley, Sr., Robert
McNair, Thomas McNalr, Sr.. John
Grohman, Jacob Walter, Jacob Boos,
George Walter, and at present the
latter's widow and children.
After the location of the Standard
Plate Glass works in Butler the glass
company bought the dam and opened a
since In it to keep the channel of the
creek clear and since that time the dam
has been neglected and is gradually go
ing to rum.
COMMERCIAL agencies report that the
iron and steel trade is better, and it is
reported from Pittsburg that the net
earnings of the United State* Steel Cor
poration for the last quarter are alwut
$20,000,000, though the official figures
are not given out. This is enconraging,
in view of the flgeres for the previous
two quarters. The charge* of the
quarter, on account of interest and
sinking funds, will amount to nearly
$12,000,000 leaving at least $8,000,000
for dividends. The dividend on the
on the preferred will call for over |'l,
000,000 and there will be a nice surplus
which is sufficient to pay one per cent
on the common, but there is no rearon
to believe that it will be paid, as there
is always a large sum charged off each
quarter. According to the figures of
the company, theru is now on hand an
immense surplus fund with which to
enable it to "do its own banking," bnt
it is getting very tiresome for the stock
holders of the common variety to read
glowing accounts aud get no dividends.
In the business centres of the country
last week, call loans were made at less
than one per cent, which indicates
a phenomenal condition of the money
market. We are getting a lot of money
from Japan and other countries, and |
there is a demand for good invest
ments.

WAR NOTES.
The military operations in Manchuria
were overshadowed, last week, by tfce
war cloud that arose over Europe, caus
ei by the doings of the Russian vessels
in the Red Sea. These vessels pa.-ed
the Dardenelles under the guise of the
Red Cross: they were irregularly in
commission and might have been ad
judged pirates.
After the capture of the P. &: O.
steamer Malacca, carrying the English
flag, and her detention because she was
j carrying forty tons of amunition con
signed to Hong Kong. China, the Eng
lish government sent its Mediterra
nean squadron to Alexandria, and sent
two fast cruisers into the Red Sea
Then the Russians backed down com
pletely, so far as the Malacca was con
cerned, and has since done the same re
garding some German steamers, but the
matter is not yet settled. A St. Peters
burg correspondent says the whole af
fair was an exhibition of the Grand
Ducal Stupidity in charge of the Rus
sian Navy.
Our turn may come next.
Cargoes of coal and provisions ship
ded from San Francisco and Seattle are
constantly on the high seas bound for
Japan, the government of which has
contracts with American packers for
ten million pounds of beef.
The Russian Vladivoetock squadron
lately evaded the Jap squadron aud is
now on the Pacific, presumably along
the east coast of Japan, and vessels car
rying the American flag are liable to
capture at any time.
Provisions and coal, excepting under
special conditions, are not contraband
of war, and if any of our vessels are
seized our Government, should insist
upon a strict construction of the Law
of Nations as. generally understood
today. The Russian idea—like slavery
—should not be allowe d to spread over
the earth.
In Manchuria the military operations
of last week were in the vicinity of
Liao Yang, a railroad town now said to
be occupied by the first Jap army,
under Gen. Kuroki, which if true,shows
that the Japs are in the rear of the main
Russian army nnder Kuropatkin, and
besides this the Japs captured and are
occupying the mountain passes to the
east, are in force to the south, and Jare
landing an army at the port of Ying
Kow to the west. They seem to have
the Russian army completely surround
ed.
On Sunday a battle lasting for four
teen hours took place near New Chwang
a large town near the month of the Liao
river, and near the port of Ying Kow.
A Russian division attacked a Jap. di
vision engaged in a flanking movement,
and were severely defeated; and the
evacuation of New Chwang by the Rus
sians followed.
On Monday detailed accounts of the
capture and sinking of the English
steamer Knight Commander, off the
coast of Japan, by Russian war vessels,
were received.
The vessel sailed from New York,
May Oth, with a large and varied cargo
of merchandise, consigned to firms at
various East Indian and Chinese ports,
and also some bridge materials consign
ed to an electrical firm at the port of
Kobe, Japan. Sbe stopped at Singa
pore. Manila and Shanghai and dis
charged part of her cargo, and was cap
tured by the Russian veaeeia on her way
to Kobe; her crew were taken ou board
the Russian vessels and she was imme
diately snnk.
The Russians seem to be deliberately
courting trouble with all the nations of
the eaitb; and fears are entertained for
the Pacific mail steamer, Korea, carry
ing the American flag, and aninnition
and arms for this government to Mani
la, and now nearing the Japanese roast.
The sinking of the English merchant
man, Knight Commander, was the sub
ject of discussion in Parliament, Tues
day. The act is condemned as being
withont precedent and contrary to the
generally accepted doctrine of interna
tioual law. At or about the same time
Russians sank two Japanese merchant
men withont making any attempt to
rescue their crews, all of whom proba
bly drowned. This was witnessed by
the crew of the Knight Commander.
The word from Manchuria yesterday
was that the Jap# had turned both
Hanks of Kuropatkin's army, and hail
then made ft terrific attack on his cen
tre, forcing him to retreat northward.
The Japs are in possession of Newchang,
tbe former Russian stronghold, and thin
puts tbem in touch with the former
"Black Flags" of China, who so greatly
annoyed the Freutb some years ago.
Kurokl's army to tbe north jpenaces the
Rnssian line of retreat, and tun Dear
seeius to be in a trap.
TIIK INDIAN MOHAWK.
Mlajrcr of Wlgton Family uml
Home Account ol' Him.
Ewroit Ol' CITIZEN: —Frequeut re
({nests have lately been made to tbe
writer of this to give the public bis
knowledge of Ham Mohawk, the Indian
slayer of the family of Jauie* Wig ton,
of .Slippery Rock township, this county,
on tbe morning of Jnly 1, IHi'-i, and
while undertaking to do h> we wish to
state that we write entirely from mem
ory, and therefore may not l>e entirely
correct in all particulars.
According to the best of our recollec
tion and belief Mohawk came to Butler
on the evening of June'i:), IW>. He came
here in the stage then rnnning here
from Pittsburg. Other Indians came
walking on the same evening. It would
seem as is Mobawk was. or had gotten
sick on the way. and his companions
therefore had gotten him into the atnge.
He was ouite a sick man when he came
bere. Tim stage then stopped at tin*
hotel kept by Col. Jacob Drinker, now
the Willard House, and thus it happen
ed that Mohawk was taken there. The
other Indians l»?ft. I«avi;;g him here
Col. Drinker. who was a very If!;f>1
good hearted man, took pity on him,
the sympeathy for him no doubt being
awakened by his suffering*. Tbe fact
was lie had been drinking bard, and
was on a drunken spree. To all ap
nearanee he had what is known "de
ferluui tre men a," Col. Hrinker cared
for him. got him any medicine juev
sary and otherwise provided for bim
During the week or so Mohawk was at
bia house, the writer of this saw bim
about there. One morning of this time
Ham went down to thehousa of the late
John Neglejr. father of the writer, who 1
was then living at home. We stioke t«.
him. and in answer as to what l</- wont
ed. be said h« wanted milk, lie went
into the kitchen of the liou»« and naked
tbe women for what they made out to
be buttermilk. At least this was tin-'
kind of milk he got, and which he'
greatly relished and seemed very thank '
ful tor. After drinking a bowl of this
he went up again towiu<is the hotel and
laid down under the shade ol it. I rim in !
what was then known as "the Cow |
saous." Here we think he laid for a !
good part of that day. And this wn> I
the last we saw of bun until brought j
back as a prisoner
In person Mohawk was rather tall '
and slim. He was perhap- nix feet high. !
H» uUo looked fairer than Indians Ken- '
eraliy. not to dark or swarthy. This '
may have arisen fro m b.'s sickness lie
was dressed in ordinary clothe*. ptjcb as
are made and worn by laboring ui<-u
among on. There was nothing of Indian :
dross on or about him. lie could talk!
aomfl English, in that guttural way i* 1
c nliar to the Indian, and he conld un
derstand some that was said in English.
He was paid to have been bora in _Cat
taraniins connty. State of New
and which adjoin? McKean county, this
State. We wonld suppose he w.-is from
thirty to forty years l of age. The rem
nant of Indians in that section are now
known as "Cornplanters." Formerly
thev were known as the "Six Nations
one'of which tribes was known as the
Mohawk tribe, and hence, it is suppos
ed. came the name Sam Mohawk,
meaning- Sam of the Mohawk tribe. The
Indians np there in those days were
great raftsmen. At least they were
often employed by the whites to take
rafts of lumber down the Allegheny
river to Pittsburg This is the way
Mohawk got to Pittsbnrir Many of
thein returned through Butler on foot.
A string of perhaps ten or fifteen of
them would often be seen going through
here in those days, returning to their
homes. There never was any complaint
of any bad conduct on their part in
passing through here. They behaved
themselves well, as far as we ever
heard, as did Sam behave while he was
h--re in Untler, no one appearing to be
afraid of him and he not wanting to
harm or disturb anyone.
On the evening of June 30, Col.
Brinker. believing he was sufficiently
restored in health, stir ted him on his
way home in the stage The arrange
ment as was said was to send him as
far as the Stone House hotel in the
Mercer stage, go called, and from there
he conld be taken or go on the Franklin
road towards his home The stage left
him at the Stone House, then kept by a
Mr Sill What all took place there
never was made very clear. Mr. Sill in
his evidence on the trial of Mohawk, as
we recollect, did not seem willing to
admit Mohawk had got any liquor at
his house. But the general opinion was
that he did and that in consequence i
trouble arose between Sill and the
Indian which resulted in the of
this hotel being shut and locked upon
him and Mohawk left to war.der in the
woods. It rained a little that night
and where and how he spent it conld
only lie conjectured. But in the early
morning of next day he reached the
Wigton house. Mr. Wigton, unfortun
ately, had risen early and gone to a
neighbor's on an errand, leaving Mrs.
Wigton and five children in their beds.
What all took place there never was
and never can be known. When Mr.
Wigton returned he found his wife and
five children all dead. A bloody stone
near the door showed the weapon used
in this most horrible deed. Mrs.
Wigton's. body lay outside the house
and n°ar her was the large family car
ving knife. It was supposed she had
arisen and was using it in the prepara
tion of breakfast. Cuts upon her hands
and arms showed a fierce struggle be
tween her and the savage. She was
said to havo been a rather large and
stronge woman and everything around
showed she had fought bravely for her
life and that of her children. Mohawk,
when he wonld be asked why he killed
her and children would say little more
than that she was "cross. The suppo
sition was that she bad ordered him
away, as a frightened woman naturally
wonld. and that this with the effects of
the whiskey he had got at the Stone
House, and" being out all night, caused
the devil to possess him and do that
awfnl deed.
Mohawk fled, but was soon seen, pur
sued, captured and secured, in a house
about a mile distant into which he ran
and barricaded himself. He wanted his
captors to shoot him then ami there,
and had it not been for the efforts of
Mr. William Stewart, a well known and
worthy citizen who lived at Hickory
Mills at that time, this probably would
have been done. lie was brought to
Butler and lodged in jail (jreat ex
citement soon followed. The people up
in the Wigton neighborhood feared the
jail was not safe and that he might
escape from it, or that by some other
way or means he might not receive the
jnst penalty for the crime. This fear
caused the people there to us«en>hle and
resolve, to come in a body, take him
from jail and Ui\ih the law into their
own hands. They were headed by Col,
Samuel Louden, a brave man, find who
after wcrds was Captain of one of the
first cotnpani' H that went to the de
fence of the Union fiom this county.
The citizens of this town were of
course greatly alarmed on hearing of
'Vj, Louden and his iue«j £*>stfin|£ and
the then Judfc'f. Hon John Uredi.'i
Hon. William Meutty, Samuel A. jiil
inore, Esq., and peruaps other leading
citizens, were dispatched to meet the
people coming. They met them about
a mile north of town at what was then
known us tiu; Uleppey House, now Berg
farm. Here speerhei; tfcre made and
an exchange of opinions had, resulting
in the men agreeing to return to their
homes. While tbis was going on the
Sheriff here in t>wn was busy making
all efforts possible to defend jail
and his prisoner in c»«» of an attack. A
well known citizen, janie* (Jiltnore
Campbell, was then the Connty Sheriff.
He was a brave man anil determined to
uphold the law ar.d do his duty. For
this purpose ho summoned every man
in reach, a* a "posse com i tat us. t > de
fend the Jail. The people generally
obeyed. There was a large crowd in
front of the jail, some with gan* in
their hands. Much excitmeut prevail
ed, and it can easily be imagined that
it wan a great relief to the citizens of
Butler when the news cauie that Lou
den and his men had been met and had
returned to their homes. The jail then
stood in the rear of the present one and
Mohawk, in consequence of the fear of
bis i scape, was placed in the basement
dungeon room. A largu ring, fastened
in the middle of the floor, had two
pretty heavy chains attached to it, and
each one of these chains was attached
to a foot of Mohawk, lie wus often
visited by the Rev G. Hassler, a very
good man and minister then living here.
Mr Uawler left a paper, called a con
fession <"n Mohawk, which we believe
was published m r;'jr pajiers after his
execution.
At the Septetnl>er term of Ooart
true bills of indictment, Hii in number,
one for each of hj« victims, were found
Moh'iwii. We woqld like here
to give u coj >y of one of them liilla but
our space will not permit. Each bill

Fire on I-ake Ontario.
slis* Katherine Mechling ofthiscoan
ty was one of the hundred and fifty ex
cursionists on the steamer Castanet
last Friday, when she took fire on the
lake. The boat was returning from
Kingston. Ont. to Clayton, N. Y. at the
time, and the fire was due to an explo
sion of gas in the tire box which threw
hot coals into the engine room.
The yacht wasfonr milrs from Kings
ton and" half a mile from shore. A stiff
breez was blowing, and the passengers
were enjoying the ride, when suddenly
a sheet of flame shot np through the
hatchways. The flames shot up to the
canvas awnings, and in a moment these
were ablaze. While the passengers were
huddled forward and aft the engineer
and fireman made their way through
the flames from the engine room. The
crew distributing life preservers,
began to fight the blaze.
Capt. Barney Nunn headed the Cast
anet toward the shore and was followed
by the steam yatch Nokotuis belonging
to W. H. Nicholas, of N. Y., which was
a mile away when the blaze burst out.
The burning boat was beached on Cedar
island and in a moment the Nokomis
was run behind her. The passengers
were transferred without the loss of a
life and the fire was extinguished by
the united efforts of both crews. Engi
neer Charles Wood and his son, Ray
mond, the fireman, were both badly
bnrned, but will recover.
On Seeing a Blind lteggar on
Federal St., Allegheny.
I have no priest. I have no nt-ed,
Of stndied r>rayer or written creed,
The earth below, the skies above,
Teach me my faith, and that is love.
I have no faith in mortal man,
He covets the earth and grasps what he
can: .
He would sell his soul for paltry gold
And tnrn hi- brother out in the cold.
That God's image is stamped upon man
kind, we know,
Aud we wonder how man can fall so
low;
It must be that K»tan has slipped in
And changed the stamp to resemble
sin.
God placed us here to help each other
Man's creed is to help himself aud no
other;
He gets riches by meanness, on the sly.
And forgets the story of the needle s
eye.
I have seen the poor on Federal street
liegging for bread.
The millionaire passed by and turned
ed away his head,
As if to say such people I can't abide,
And like the priest crossed to the other
side.
A time of reckoning will come some
day,
When they will hear the Savior say,
I told you to be kind to the poor, for
with you they will ever be.
In as much as ye did it not unto them
you did it not unto me.
