The Scouts in Yellowstone Park Make an Important Arrest. The Secretary of the Interior has received @ letter from Capt. George S. Anderson, acting superintendent of the Yellowstone National Park, dated Mammoth Hot Springs, Wyoming, regarding an important arrest made by the scouts connected with | the park. It appears that some weeks ago one of the snowshoe parties got on the trail of a man with a sled on Astringent creek, near Pelican. The trail was old when dis- covered, and in consequence it was not followed. About the same time a man, as- certained to be Ed. Howell of Cook City, known to be a poacher, passed the station |at night. On the Gth instant a party con- sisting of Capt. Scott, Lieut. Forsyth and | Scout Burgess, two sergcants and Haynes, the park photographer, started out in search of the poachers. On the 12th instant the party arrived at Fern lake in a terrific | Snow storm. On the following morning the party discovered near its camp a cache of six buffalo scalps and skulls, three good skins and three more from which the hair had been partially taken off, and being made into rawhide. The trail was then lost, but Burgess kept on, and about noon of that day ran into a fresh one, which was followed to a lodge erected near the mouth of Astringent creek. While there he heard shots, and soon saw the culprit down in the middle of the Pelican valley. | Capt. Anderson says that burgess per-| | formed an act of bravery that deserves special recognition. The poacher was un- | doubtedly armed with a repeating rifle, it | was equally ce-tain that he was a des- perate character and would resist arrest even to the point of taking life. The only | arm cerried by Burgess and the sergeant was a single army revolver. The poacher was 80 occupied in skinning his buffalo that he did not see Burgess until he was within fifteen or twenty feet of him. He then started for his rifle, but on an order from Burgess stopped and surrendered. Near him were the carcasses of five buffaloes, freshly killed. The prisoner | Proved to be Ed. Howell, the last of the | three desperate poachers to fall a victim to the scouts of the park. There are no jlaws providing for the prosecution of | Poachers in the Yellowstone Park, and Capt. Anderson believes that this arrest can be made the occasion for a direct ap- = Congress for the passage of an act U ing it an offense triable before the 1. S. court in Wyoming, for any one to kill, capture or injure any wild animals in the park. Several bills are now pending be- fcre Congress providing for the enactment of a law to punish persons illegally killing game in the park. The Secretary of the Interior called attention to this matter in his last annual report, and has Personally appealed to Senators. It is believed that remand Faulkner, the chairman of the committee on territories, will call bill on Thursday, 23, Seped ‘the Senate to pass {i ——_o THE TWIN CRUISERS, Delay in Completing the Raleigh Cincianatl. The twin cruisers Raleigh and Cincinnati will hardly be ready for sea service for at least two months yet. It was expected that they would be ready to go into commission April 2, but neither vessel will be ready by that time. No penalties can be exacted for delay in the completion of these vessels, for the reason that they are being built by the government, the Raleigh at the Norfolk navy yard and the Cincinnati at the Brook- lyn navy yard. Neither has had her en- gines tried yet, except the preliminary “turning over” at the shops. The delay in getting them in condition is due to the slow delivery of material. They will go out on their trial trips about the same time, and their action will be watched with interest, ~ Steaming. baste of comparison between the work o: e government and private ship builders. — —_--o+___. THE BIG GUN TEST. It Will Not Take Pince U: Powder is Received. The range test of the big 13-inch rifled cannon will not take place for several weeks yet. It was expected that the recent test of the gun at Indian Head in firing for velocity and pressure would at once be fol- |lowed by firing on a range of ten miles down the river. It was found after the test of last week, however, that the brown prismatic powder used was not up to expec- tations. It did not produce the velocity or the pressures which had been estimated for it, and, under these circumstances, it was decided not to attempt to throw the 1,100- pound projectile ten miles unless the qual- ity of the powder could be improved. Just as soon as the Duponts furnish a powder which meets the desires of the ordnance officers the gun will be fired down the river. —___-2.-____ FRANCIS A. WALKER’S PLAN. State Banks to Issue a Non-Legal Tender Currency. At the annual dinner of the Boot and | Shoe Club of Boston, last evening, Winslow Warren, the new collector of the port, in discussing the currency question, offered an original suggestion for the relief of the present industrial depression, which is in- teresting, as coming from the local repre- sentative of the present administration. Following a bi-metallic argument by Gen. | Francis A. Walker, president of the Massa- | chusetts Institute of Technology, Mr. War- ren spoke at length and declared himself a gold mono-metallist. “I am goiag to of- fer,” seid he, “a plan for the settlement of | this currency entanglement. Might not a | partial remedy of this trouble be had by the establishment of, not the old-fashioned | and dangerous state banks, but by a sys- | tem of state banks under the control cf the | government, such as there is in Canala? “These banks could organize with paid- in capital and gold on reserve and issue | @ currency to be guaranteed by the gov- ernment, but not to be legal tender.” LIMITING THE LAWYERS, The New Make Arguments Much Shorter. ‘There is Of@ rule in those Tecently adopted and promulgated by the Supreme Court of the District which, it is believed, will go very far in avoiding the unnecessary con- sumption of time in the trial of cases before the different branches of the court, and one, too, which will undoubtedly afford both courts and juries not a little comfort and Satisfaction. The rule in question is No. 52 of the common law rules,and was adopted for the purpose of limiting the time of coun- sel in arguing motions and also in arguing before juries. Heretofore there was no rule on this subject, and hence counsel were Practically unlimited in their time. The rule was enforced for the first time, ft is said, this morning by Judge Cole, in Crim- inal Court No. 2, in the Chamberlain case, when the court called the attention of Mr. the nature of news. It is as follows: “Section 1. Only one counsel on each side will be heard before the court upon any point of evidence, or on a motion, and in addressing the court shall not be permitted to occupy more cases, not to occupy more than half an hour, and no more than two counsel on a side shall be permitted to address the jury nor to d more than one hour each; provided, special leave of the court, in cases o! than ordinary ce and difficuls rule, both as to the number of Hi i 3s Section second of the rule prohibits than one counsel on a side examini the court or jury, and that concluding counsel wood, through Mr. hier of Capt.
