The depart- ment was therefore practically without a head, though a few matters requiring immediate at- tention were taken to the general at his rooms. He has been pretty hard worked of late, hav- ing not only his own duties, and, to a large ex- tent, those of the Secretary, but also the meet- ings and work of the fortification board to at- tend to. The board has about finished its June labors, and the officers will probably return to their stations early next week. THOMAS DESMOND TALKS. He is not in Hiding, Did not Know Cronin, and is not a Clan-na-Gael. A dispatch from Chicago credits the Herald of that city with stating that Thomas Desmond, who isa prominent Irishman on the Pacific coast, is wanted by the Chicago police for com- plicity in ¢he murder of Dr. Cronin. Mr. Desmond is stopping at the Hotel Johnson. in this city, where he has been since the 22d of May. He is strongly backed for appointment to some office under the administration, and he is in the city in connection with that busi- ness. A Sram reporter found him to-day seated in the lobby of the hotel. Me said that he was surprised to see his name mentioned in connection with the murder of Dr. Cronin, He stated that he did not know Dr. Cronin and had never met him, and that he was nota member of the Clan-na-Gael. Mr. Desmond said he was in New York at the time of the murder, HE IS READY, IF WANTED. Yesterday, in company with Mr. Thomas Walsh, of this city, Mr. Desmond went to the first precinct station and informed Lieut, Amiss ‘that he was at his disposal. Buthe found that the police had no information in regard to him. He said to-day that he had heard nothing more about the matter, but he held himself in readi- ness. He wanted it to be understood that he was not in hiding. and, further, that he had done nothing in his life to be ashamed of, WILL SEE DILLON LATER, Mr. Desmond attributes the rumor of his connection with the case to Litke Dillon, whgm he met casually in New York just before he left that city for Washington. He says that before he returns to San Francisco he intends to meet aE Dillon and tell him what he thinks about im, THE FLOOD SUFFERERS. Contributions Through The Star for Their Relief.

Hastings’ Energetic Labor at Johnstown. THE DRIFT To BE HEREAFTER BURNED IX ORDEB TO PREVENT DISEASE—THE CONTINUED WET WEATHER CAUSES MUCH SICKNESS—ALL THE WORKMEN THAT ARE WANTED. Jouystown, Pa., June 14.—With the addi- tion of nearly 1,000 new men, Contractor Mc- Knight states this morning that he expects to do more effective work to-day and to-morrow than has been accomplished altogether since the disaster occurred. The question about the price of labor has been settled, and there are to-day about 1,750 men at work on the drift at the stone bridge. This morning the advantage to be gained from burning all that can be burned is readily apparent. The river in places is almost clear of wreckage, and the work of pulling it out is comparatively easy. Seven hoisting engines are pulling out of the jam all that can be pulled and piling it on the river bauk. To-night the drift thus accumu- lated will be burned. Contractor McKnight expects to have the river cleared of wreckage by to-morrow evening. The dynamiting still goes on and is gradually loosening the drift. MORE RAIN FALLING. Abeavy rain began falling at 8:30 o'clock this morning and’ has greatly retarded the work of clearing away the debris. Nearly all of the laorers have deserted their places and returned to camp, refusing to remain out in the rain. The work of removing the drift and wreckage is practically suspended for the time being. The rising. water in the Conemaugh river will, however, greatly assist the workmen in floating, the debris away when the rain ceases and they return to work. Nine mem- bers of the Philadelphia fire department ar- rived this morning.’ Four engines from Phila- delphia will arrive during the day and will be used to pump water out of cellars, as well as otection from fire. Dr. Miller, of the state joard of health, suys that he fears that the con- tinued WET WEATBER WILL CAUSE MUCH SICKNESS, especially pneumonia, He reports one case of typhoid fever in Minersville and several new cases of chicken-pox and measles to-day. Up to noon to-day four bodies were recovered, taken to the morgue and afterward buried in Prospect cemetery. Two were identified as the bodies of Mrs. Frawater and Miss Mary C. Coad. The remains of a six-months’-old fe- male child and a young man were unidentified. Miss Coad’s remains were discovered in her father’s home. The other bodies were found in the wreck near the first ward school-house. THE CROWDS AROUND THE COMMISSARIES, which seem to increase with each day, are a mud-bedraggied set. The entrance to each station is very narrow, yet into them the women and children, each with a capacious basket, crowd like sheep into a pen. The line is a long one, and those who are so unlucky as to have arrived after 6 or 7 o'clock have been standing unprotected, and in some instances half-clad, in the pouring rain. Their baskets are generally well filled, yet on leavin, the commissaries complaints ure heard on all sides of ‘no butter nor anything fresh after weeks,” &c, In one way the rain to-day is regarded as a blessing, as the terrible stench from the burn- ing flesh, which was almost ynbearable last night, is scarcely noticeable. GEN, HASTINGS WAS OUT FARLY ag usual this morning, and was kept exceed- ingly busy. Telegrams are flooding in to him from all parts of the country—contractors who want a chance at the work of clearing the debris. In an interview this-morning he said: “We have nowabout all the workmen we need, and if it was not for the rain this morn- ing we would have at least 2.500 men at work. Of course this weather will knock out every- thing while it continues. We have now the work systematized, and I don't enticipate any further trouble. A vast amount has alfeady been done, yetit is hardly noticeable.” BLOWING UP THE DRIFT. The drift at the stone bridge is being gradu- ally cleared. Dynamite is the only thing that has any effect upon it and to-day 150 cart- ridges are being put in at a charge and the noise from the explosion can be heard for miles, and Engineer Phillips, who is in c! of this work, expects have it finished by Sunday. A number of lumbermen from the jon ion were engaged sen, 2 the with their hooks — and this m , and their ——e 80 : “ig that ae oe tachment as been sent for. Engineer ips says they are everything in their power to-get out wivat wise ate in the wreck, but it is almost impossible to get at them. TO PULL DOWN UNSAFE BUILDINGS. It has been decided to tear down all unsafe buildings in the town and burn the wreckage. He will be done a8 soon as the Philadelphia fire-e: A house-to-house canvass will be ina rated to-morrow to secure as near as state officials. The system of tempted a week ago was not effective.

Maroney was there last April, say he is incapable of committing murder. Owen-Murray, the State street saloon keeper, who has known Desmond for years, says that when the Californian left Chicago be d directly from New York to San ncisco.

Luke Dillon does not believe Desmond had anything to do with the murder. “I met Tom Desmond in New York either the 29th or 30th of April,” said Mr. Dillon. ‘Desmond was at- tending the celebration of the centennial. I had quite a talk with him, baving known him for years. I remember speaking about the coming convention, and expressed my views quite emphatically.’ Desmond agreed with me and told of the condition of affairs on the Pa- cific coast, This, of course, was before the death of Cronin. Tom Desmond is a brave and an honest man, and I do not believe he would -take any part in » murdereus con- spiracy.” DILLON WILL REMAIN IN CHICAGO.

The News this morning says that the con- tract with Dr, Crouin is not the only damaging evidence against Iceman Sullivan, but that, un- known to his most intimate friends, he made careful provisions either for his own escape after Cronin had been killed or for the payment of hired assassins for the murderous ed. It will be remembered that the Carlson cottage was hired and the household goods moved into it from 117 Clark street between March 20 and 22. It has been ascertained that on March 26 P. O. Sullivan mortgaged his ice wagons and horses for £600. A peculiar cir- cumstance connected with the transaction is that the mortgage was not recorded until the last week in April, although the document it- self had been Sd up about a month before. It is a well-known fact that money-lenders, as rule, lose no time in getting a chattel mort- gage recorded after the money has been ae- tually paid out and consequently THIS DELAY SEEMS VERY STRANGE. On May 4, Dr. Cronin was murdered, and on May 4the Keal Estate and Building Journal was published, and under the head of ehattel mort- gages, announced that of Sullivan's. This jour- nal is a weekly and Degen regularly all mortgages recorded. The probability is that the 7600 received from McBride was paid to Sullivan only a few days before Dr. Cronin’s death, These dates are very suggestive, and the question arises: What connection has this money transaction with the murder for which ger now under pea — Continuing, the News explains it by claiming that Sullivan was, “4 PARTY To THE WHOLE UNDERTAKING, and that as soon as the cottage was hired Sul- livan lost no time in making provision, as shown above, either for his own escape or for’ the pay of the assass The money was not to be paid to him till about date of the murder. and this would predlude the neces- sity of publishing the record of the mortgage before such time as would interfere with the plot. Then when the day fixed for the crime had been determined the money was secured andthe deed. was done. The probability is that the $600 was paid to the men who mur- dered or assisted in the murder, since Sullivan had ample time to effect bis escape had he chosen to do so. Perhaps he felt secure and delayed his own departure too long. A Memorial Cronin Meeting. Arrangements for the big memorial meeting, which will be held on June 28, to commemo- rate the murder of Dr. Cronin, are nearly com- pleted. The managing committee has issued invitations to leading citizens of every nation- ality, and it is expected that the hall will be crowded with representative men. Mayor Cregiler will preside, and Gov, Fifer will de- liver an address. The stage will be occupied by congressmen, leading lawyers. editors and the officers of societies, A feature ot the pro- gram will be singiug by several German so- ag that have promised to be present in a iy. A RUMOR ABOUT MR. CONKLIN. It was rumored to-day that Mr. T. T. Couklin had been killed while on his way to Chicago last night from Logansport, Ind. It was sub- sequently ascertained, however, that the report was fals@ Mr. Conklin is all right and attend- ing to his business at Clark and Illinois streets as usual, A DELAY IN SULLIVAN'S CASE. At the opening of his court this morning,Judge Tuley said he would not be ready to announce his opinion in the matter of allowing Alex. Sullivan's release on bail until 3 o'clock. it is reported that this course was taken because it is thought the grand jury will take some action in the matter to-day. NOT YET FREE. The Habeas Corpus Proceedings in the Cases of Maroney aud McDonald. New York, June 14.—The writs of habeas corpus for John J, Maroney and Charles Mc- Donald came up this morning, one before Judge Patte.son in the court of oyer and term- iner and the other before Judge Andrews in supreme court chambers, Both court-rooms were filled with Irishmen and Irish sympa- thizers. Judge Andrews sent the McDonald case into Judge Patterson, and that functionary, after consulting with Judge Andrews, an- nounced that he could not hear the arguments, but would send the writs back to the supreme court.

(Mr. MacDona did not seemed inclined to make mpeg J but verbal returns to the writs in view of the probable granting of ex- tradition papers by the governor next Monday, but Judge Andrews said he bad nothing to do with extradition rs,and that written re- turns must be made by those to whom the writs were addressed. ‘DONALD'S ALIBI.

Sr. Pact, Mnex., June 14.—A dispatch from Mora, Minn., says: The treacherous Chip- pewa Indians areon the war-path again, and there are grave fears of a general uprising. Already seven Swede laborers have been myw- sacred and several hundred laborers and set- tlers are now hurrying here for safety, Sheriff Nicolsen, mounted on an Indian pony, rode fo town on a gallop yesterday and ve the alarm. He also communicated with ’ Merriam, requesting lim to order out the state om to guell the uprising. The ut trouble is the outgrowth of encroachment by the whites upon the Mille Lacs’ reservation. Recently a contract was awarded by the gettlers to Foley Bros, of St. Paul, to dig a ditch for irrigation purposes from Mille Lac’s lake to = pointon the Smoke river near this When the ludians learned a ditch was to be dug they at once came to the conclusion that the intention was to drain the latter and deprive ‘them of their fishing privileges. Notice was served by the Indians upon the coutracto?®, warning them that if they did not leave the territory at once THEY WOULD BRE PUT To DEATH. The contractors gave no heed to the warning, but came here and engaged 300 laborers, who began work yesterday mornihg at Mille Lacs, About noon yesterday they were al abya party of about 400 Chippewas led By White Knake and Great Bear, ‘iit Indians were im full war paint and armed with Winchester rifles and tomabawks. As soon as they saw the reds coming the laborers dropped their shovels and fled toward this place They were pursued by the savages, who shot and killed seven men, Their names are: Olatf Magusen, Christian Raemussen, Bernt Doerr- dahil, Aug. Swausen, Gustav Doderstrom, Carl Speh, Jacob and Skoll, Several others were wounded but not seriox The Indians scalped Toderstrom aud Maguson and mutilated the bodies of Speh and Skoil in a fiendish man- ner. The Indians, who » been gathering onthe south shore of Mille Lacs lake fora week or more, Wednesday night engaged ina war dance as @ preliminary to the massatre, Three of the seven victims have families here in_destitate circumstances, Ex-Senator H. M. Rice, of St. Paul, Bishop Marty, of Dakota, and Dr. Whiting, of Wis- consin, commissioners appointed by President Harrison to treat with the Chippewa Indians, are in this city, and were to have started out next week to negotiate“with the tribes at Mille Lacs, Allthree were seen by a reporter laut night, ‘WHAT COMMISSIONER RICE SA%S. “The situation between the government and the Indians at Mille Lacs,” said Senator Rice, “has been critical one for many years, and the affairs have been in a very unsettled state, Difficulties have repeatedly arisen regarding their ownership of the land which they occupy. They are in a wretched condition and very much demoralized. Whisky is to be had all around them, aud 1s accessible at innumerable points on the border of the reservation. The Massacre is no doubt attributable to « drunken spree. I don't apprehend that it will extend over any loug period of time. The Mille Lacs have not been a people. During the Sioux outbreak in 1882 some of the Chippowas from the Upper Mississippi, with Hole im the Day at their head, were anxious to jow the Sioux and make war on the whites. They seit messages to the Mille Lacs, and asked them to go with them and join the Sioux tribes, The Mille Lacs, however, were true to the government, shun their own brethren and tendering their service to the state. But for the iast ten or fifteen y of losing their property. the ‘y unsettled and demoralived. Their pine lands have tempted the whites to encroach upon the reservation.” BISHOP MARTY's VIEWS. Bishop Marty, of Dakota, one of the three members of the Chippewa commission, ex- pressed the opinion that there was no com certed action in the uprising. He thought there must have been some great ‘ovocation oF they gould not have committed the outrages, He was confident there was no Catholic mis- sionaries among them, for had there becn they would have been able to prevent it. — t of the effect upon the cémmission he said: think it will help us, and 1 will demgnstrate to the sensible Indians that the time has come for them to give up their reservation life and be- come like white men. Dr. Whiting, another member of the commission, said: ™fk “is little wonder that the outbreak occprred, I @id not expect it any more from them than from any one of the ten bands whom We are to negotiate with, but itis simply the resuit of the long delay in the realization of the prom’ ufade by Congress. With true Indian instibct they became discontented and dissatisfied and jumped on the first white men they came across, A general uprising among the Chip- pewas is among the probabilities of the near tuture, TROOPS READY TO MOVE.
