THE LUXEMBURG REGENCY The Duke of Nassau’s Friends Think Their Time Will Come, OKLAHOMA LAND-GRABBING. © CHICAGO HAS A TRUNK MYSTERY. Disastrous Forest Fires in the Northwest. THE LUXEMBURG REGENCY. Friends of the Duke of Nassau Cha= grined at His Displacement. Lonpox, May 6.—The friends of the duke of Nassau are chagrined, but by no means dis- mayed, at his sudden and unexpected displace- ment from the regency of Luxemburg. They bide their time, as it is not probable that the venerable king of Holland will much longer be an obstacle to his resumption of the honors which he held for si 4 ch a brief period. The d ke himself has this solace tor his mortifica- tion that he has learned the estimate formed of him in the courts of Europe. It is confidently stated that Germany viewed his future career with apprehension, as he by no means promised to be the subservient semi- ally which it was hoped he would prove to be. As for the Dutch they look from grie? and silent rage on the nominal disintegration of their territory, and never was enthusiasm more heart- felt than that which hailed the announcement that their aged monarch would continue his rule over the intact domain, THE PROVERB ABOUT POSSESSION + may receive a new exemplification in the case of the Duke of Nassau. No one knows what complications may take place in European af- fairs before the death of the king of Holland, and the duke may have bidden adieu to his Lit- tle but impor gian press, while congratulating Holland on the convalescence of King William. gret the retirement of the duke. A practi ut province fortunes. The Bel- independent state in the geographical position of Luxemburg would prove another obstacle to German aggressiveness, and put off still far- ther the conflict regarded by all with such dread, yet 80 confidently predicted.

Warrrtown, N. Y., May 6.—The Ontario paper mill, which is located about 3 miles from this city and is one of the largest millsin north- ern New York, was set on fire in four different places at about 1 o'clock this morning, but was not destroyed, owing to good fire fighting facil- ities in the building and the work of the city fire department, The mill had only recently been completed at a cost of 2300.00. There is every reason to believe that the fires were | kindled by James Warden, the night tchman, au in who was the only man besides the ti the mill last night,work on full time not having commenced. ‘The fires were set in Various parts of the building and outbuildings, two of the latter, the blacksmith shop and a_store- house, beside a dwelling, which stood near, being burned to the ground, When the fire de the main building and began to break windows. though by that time the fires there were under control. He was stopped by a citizen who told him he was under arrest and was taken to his home, about half a mile dis- tant, where he immediately went to bed and to sleep. It is not yet known whether he was drunk or crazy, He is now under arrest. a TROUBLE EXPECTED. A Parish Divided into Factions over a Desperado’s Death. Sr. Lovts, May 6.—Information comes from New Orleans to the effect that Vernou, a sparsely-settled parish on the border of Texas, appears on the eve of a civil war, and much blood may flow. Two years ago A. D. Lyles, a ‘Texas desperado, who, it is charged, had been driven from that state for cattle stealing, set- th ed in Vernon parish and engaged in stock dealing. He always went heavily armed and inclined to murderous aggressivepess. He was said to have struck several parties with his rifle and deliberately stepped upon the toes of men while entering stores, $0 odious did he become that one night recently he was filled | with buckshot and left dead on a bridge six miles from Leesburg. His killing was the be- ginning of the trouble. ‘The editor of the Peo- ple’s Friend attacked State Senator E. E. Smart, @ prosperous and influential citizen. aceusing him of the crime and demanding punishment. The Vernon News defended the senator. The parish speedily divided into factions, the old element supporting the News and the border ruftians the Friend. Sorrell, editor of the lat- ter, has made himself very aggressive, and it is feared he will be killed, If such an event oc- curs the two factions will fight, with bloody re- sults, : ee ES A Man Killed for a Hatchet. Sr. Paci, Miny., May 6.—At 10 o'clock last night Mikel Chesney, a Polish laborer, was re- turning up the narrow alley which constitutes the main street of Pollacktown, when John Lampbrek and several friends met him, Lamp- brek had loaned Chesney a hatchet for the use of which he was to be paid 26 cents, and, being in an ugly mood and drunk, he stopped Cli ney to demand immediate payment or the re- turn of the instrument. Chesney offered to buy the hatchet for $1 and gave Lampbrek a #5 gold piece, expecting to get change. In- stead he got a blow on the head froma revolver which Lampbrek carried, and the blow was followed up with a dozen more of the same kind, until Chesney fell insensible and fatally wounded. The blow which finished Chesney caught him in the left temple, leaving a hole large enough to admit a man’s finger. His head and face are gashed in a dozen places. Lampbrek has not yet been captured. * —_——_—__—_—- Murder in the Second Degree.

WHY THE PENSION BUILDING WILL NoT Do, Arrangements were being made to make this transfer, when active operations were suspended in order to allow the hall to be used for the inaugural ball. It was, however, pretty well ascertained that the money appropriated for this purpose would not be sufficient to meet the expense of fitting up the hail for the use of the post-office. There has, however, been no official statement of | that fact. It 1s the opinion of those familiar with the needs of the + office that the removal to the Pension buildin, would be only a temporary expedient, and the’ the accommodations there are not of the char- acter which are desired. It is thought that the commission will not recommend a removal to the pension building, but that after a com- plete investigation of the entire subject they will prepare a report which will set forth clear/s the needs of the city post-office, and the neces- sity for some immediate action to relieve the postal service in this city from the disadvantages | under which it has labored for so many years by reason of the inadequete and mean bi which it has been compelled to occupy.
