THE SOLDIER LYNGHERS.
Seven of Them Indicted by the Gr‘
Jury—The Sheriff Censured.
WALLA WALLA, Wight J un: 101111—13):
rand 'ury has present i 5 rep 1
geotiori with the lynching of Hunt by uni
soldiers on April 25.
It says, among other things, we found p
true bill against only seven of the men,»
and believe that there are a number at
others equally as guilty, but in their easel
the evidence was too meager to warrant
an indictment. Colonel Compton was no
doubt guilty of negligence in not taking
proper precautions to prevent them-oops
from making an attack on the Jail after
having been notified that that was their
intention.
The sheriff, too, is not free from blame
for not making a stouter remstance and
for not sounding a general alarm. The
county commissioners are advised to make
out a bill for the expenses incurred in con.
nection with the lynching, and to present
the same to the United States government
‘ for payment. . ~
The report concludes with a suggestion
that the troops be changed to some other
place because of the feeling exacting-b0
tween the citizens and soldiers resultmg
from the lynching.

A cable dispatch from London says that the
directors of the Bank of England have decided
not to reduce tllc rate of discount further at
present, owing to the demands for gold from
Russia and Austria. It is understood that £600,-
000 went to Russia today. It was also stated
in a cable dispatch published this morning that
200,000 went to Austria Saturday. This Aus-
trian demand is a new departure in the present
gold movement. The “street” is at a loss touc-
count for it, except it is for the settlement: of
balances and a financial weakness in Austriu
similar to that ill Germany and France. It is
stated that £2,000,000 will be required in Russia
Russia early in July for the redemption of the
treasury bills sold to Russia in November. One
million five hundred thousand pounds of thil
will be furnished by the Bank of England. Rus-
sia will also need £6,500,000 between now and
October to pay off old loans held chiefly in Bol-
land. The $500,000 gold which was shipped to‘
day is understood to be for the Rothschilds.
This gold movement, and the apprehensions
that in the present state of affairs in Europi'
more gold must naturally be withdrawn from
here, had a tendency to check dealings on the
Stock exchange this morning. The opening
figures here were firm, however, and slightly
higher, and during the first hour there was a.
further slight improvement. At 11 o’clock
values were up yg to l per cent, but in the hour
to noon pr1ces were irregular. The noon'figures
were, however, fractionally above those of ye.-
tcrday in most cases. The principal trading
was in St. Paul, Louisville and Nashville Sugar
Trusts, Atchison, and Chicago Gas ’At the
close the market was dull. I

Had an Honored Dead Such an Illus-
trious Escort—To Be Interred
in Cataraqui Cemetery.
OTTAWA, June 11,—With all the pomp
and ceremony befitting a state funeral
and the distinguished dead, the remains
of the late premier, Sir John A. Macdon-
ald, were borne Wednesday afternoon from
the senate chamber, where they had lain
in solemn state since Tuesday morning, to
St. Albans church, where the funeral Ser-
vices were held, and thence to the depot,
where they were placed on board a special
train to hear them to Kingston for inter-
ment. It was a perfect June day. A
bright sun, tempered by a mild breeze,
shone down upon a city draped in heaviest
mourning. All the public buildings were
shrouded in black, flags fluttered at half
mast and all places of business were closed.
The last respects of a loving people were
being paid to their great Chieftain.
From an early hour in the morning a
vast crowd thronged the approaches to the
parliament buildings and lined the thor-
oughfares through which the funeral cor-
tege would pass. Everywhere were signs
of mourning. The houses along the route
of the procession were draped in black,
and in every manner possible the people
of the city evinced their sorrow.
In the senate chamber rested the casket
in which reposed the illustrious dead,
arrayed in the glittering uniform of an
imperial privy councillor. Around about
and banked high against the casket were
the floral tributes, silently testifying to
the respect and veneration in which the
dead statesman was held, while to the east
of the catafalque stood a twelve-foot
shield in black cloth bearing on its center
a portrait of her majesty draped with en-
signs. The rails behind the throne were
heavily draped in. black, and the throne
itself was covered with Canadian ensigns.
The Funeral Procession.
Shortly after noon the officers of state
and other high dignitaries who were to
take part in the funeral began to arrive.
Outside the military and civic bodies took
up the positions assigned to them. The
governor general and staff reached the
parliament buildings just prior to 1
o’clock, and all was soon in readiness.
The casket was lifted from its resting
place by six members of the Dominion po~
lice and borne out to the hearse. The cor-
tege then formed, and, amid the booming
of five minute guns and the solemn tolling
of funeral bells, the march to the church
began.
First came a squad of dominion police
followed by a "squad of dragoon guards
and regimental bands of music. Next
came the officiating clergy, the honorary
pall bearers and the active pall bearers. A
vehicle containing the floral offerings fol-
lowed and after it came the hearse.‘
hind this were two coaches containing the
mourners. Next in line come the governor
general and stafif, the senior officers of the
army and navy, the lieutenant governors
of provinces, the archbishops and bishops,
the members of the cabinet,_the speaker of
the senate, the chief judges of the courts,
the members of the privy council and the
general officers of the army. Then fol-
lowed the members of the senate and
house of commons, members of provin-
cial executive councils and legislative as-
semblies, consuls of foreign powers, depu-
1y ministers, mayor and corporation of
Ottawa, and after these came the muni-
cipal bodies, political clubs and deputa-
tions from cities and towns and citizens
generally.
A Princely Escort.
Never before in Canada had an honored
dead such a princely escort. As the pro-
cession passed along heads were bowed
and uncovered. The cortege moved west
ward by the western block and east again
to the main entrance to parliament
grounds, then down Metcalf street and
through connecting thoroughfares to Daly
street, and along Daly street to St. Albans
church. Arriving at the church the casket
was borne into the edifice, where it was re-
ceived by the rector, Rev. J. J. Bogart,
and, preceded by the choir chanting a
psalrn, conveyed to the altar. The gov-
ernor general and other dignitaries and as
many as could find room in the church
followed the casket.
read by the Rev. Mr. Bogart. The hymns
were, “When our heads are bowed with
woe” and “N ow the laborer’s task is o’er.”
During,r the service the choral from Men-
delssohn’s St. Paul was sung.
At the close of the service the casket was.
carried out to the hearse, preceded by the
choir singing the (Nunc Dimittis. The
cortege again formed and proceeded to the
Canadian Pacific depot, where the casket
was deposited on a special train, which
almost immediately left for Kingston.
Arriving there the remains will be con-
veyed to the city hall, where they will lie
in state until Thursday afternoon, when
they will be interred in Cataraqui ceme-
tery, where, beside father, mother, wife,
sisters and brother, they will rest in the
long last sleep.
Against the People’s Party.
LA CROSSE,Wis., June 11.——The state con-
vention of the Farmers’ Alliance met yes-
terday and President Butt delivered his
annual address. The chief point of the ad-
dress was a. declaration that the recent
convention at Cincinnati, which deter-
mined to form a People’s party, was noi
a farmers’ convention, and will not be
recognized as such, and that when the
Farmers" Alliance convention is held Feb.
22 to put a national ticket in the field the
alleged People’s party will not be “in it.”
