An Oath-Bound Society Comprising Prominent Men. ‘A special from O'Neill, Neb., says: De- yelopments today in tho Scott case have laid before the authorities the whole con- spiracy which resulted in the lynching. ‘The information is furnished by a member of the vigilance committee. Fifty men are involved in the affair, many of them of state prominence. It is proven to be the work of the oath-bound organization which has for twenty-five years held sway in Holt county and defied all law. The members of the committee who were friendly to Scott knew that he was to be lynched, but they were not acquainted with the time and place at which the mur- Gerous work was to be accomplished. How far the conspiracy extended is indicated by the st of the members of the com- mittee that Is now in the hands of the at- torney general. This includes over fifty names, among them being one or two ex- members of the legislature. The meetings of this committee were held at the houses of John Hopkins, Fred. Harris, John Davidson and H. M. Brad- street. This and additional facts were disclosed by men within the past few days who are actually members of the vigilantes and who had taken the iron-clad oath of secrecy.

NOTES AND CERTIFICATES. ‘Important Treasury Legislation in the Sundry Civil Bill. The sundry civil appropriation bill was passed in the House yesterday afternoon, having been increased $497,000 by amend- ments. Two legislative amendments were also agreed to. One restores to the Secretary of the Treasury the discretion that for- nerly was vested in him, to issue notes of such denominations as he may deem best, instead of restricting him to the reissue of such denominations as may be canceled and retired. The other amends the law author- izing the issue of gold certificates, so as to make such certificates non-recelvable for customs dues after July 1, 1695, and for- bidding their use by national banks in their reserves. These amendments, it was stated, were considered by Secretary Carlisle to be of the utmost importance to the treasury. The Cocmbs amendment, to prohibit the printing of gold certificates, and to repeal the law authorizing the issue of gold cer- tificates, was agreed to without a division. + 2+ ____ It is reported from the City of Mexico that the United States government has undertaken the part of a peacemaker be- tween Mexico and Guatemala, and that the move has created a profound impres- sion in the former country.
