Boise Citv, Ida.. Julv28.—Last night
and Senator Hamer, of Illinois, and T.
It. Ilnmer, of St. Anthony, who left St.
Anthony Wednesday morning’ on a fish-
ing trip to Jackson’s Hole, taking no
stock in the Indian scare, returned
there yesterday and reported that every
man, woman and child in Jackson’s
Hole had been murdered and that one
of the Denver News couriers, who had
gone far into Teton basin, which is the
present point, in danger of massacre,
reported that tiie smoke of a large fire
was seen by him several miles south
of the Grand Teton in the direc-
tion of Jackson’s Hole and that there
was no doubt that the redskins had
fired every home and cabin there.
Early this morning, however, the
Statesman received the following mes-
sage from
Lake, Ida.: “Pay no attention to wild
reports about Indians in Jackson’s
Hole. Everything is quiet at present.”

London, July 28. —The Times, com-

vestments has been kept in hand.
Good authorities estimate that up
to 1892 English capitalists were
accustomed to invest 18150.000,000
yearly in America, chiefly in
railroad stocks. If this estimate
errs, it is on the side of moderation.
But for the uneasiness, induced by the
American monetary system, undoubt-
edly it would be reinvested in Amer-
ica now that business is perceptibly
improving there.”

Tin* ( uiwflH of the Trouble.
Cheyenne, Wyo., July 28.—Adjt-
Gcn. Stltzer has forwarded his report
of the Indian trouble to the governor.
It is quite a lengthy document and
covers fully the causes leading to the
trouble. It says: "In an interview
on Sunday with four prominent resi-
dents of Jackson’s Hole, the fol-
lowing statements were given me as
4 grounds for the action of the settlers.
They claimed that the Bannocks. Sho-
shones and Lemhis have for the past
six years slaughtered game in largo
numbers, mainly for their hides. In
1894, after repeated appeals from the
county authorities of Fremont and
Uintah counties,tiie interior deparment
ordered that no more passes should
be given the Indians allowing them
to leave the reservation for the pur-
pose of hunting. It. is estimated that
5,000 elk were killed in that year.
This year the settlers on Jackson’s
Hole determined to enforce the law
against the Indians and whites alike.
On July 2 eight Bannocks were ar-
rested for killing game, and six
of them were fined 875 and costs
and sentenced to jail until the
fine was paid. They escaped from
their guard and on July 10 more of the
same tribe were arrested. They at-
tempted to escape after trial and were
fired on by the whites, several of them
being killed. On July 9 l’apt. John
Smith, a miner and prospector, was
tired c.n from ambush and wounded in
the right breast, lie returned the fire,
killing one of the Indians.”

( Krroli rox, Mo., July IS When
the Taylor trial was resumed this
inorniug Dr. 1). I. Stevenson, of Lin-
nous, a witness for the defense, was
allowed to testify in order that he
might return to his practice. He said
that he had been requested two weeks
ago by Albert Taylor, a brother of the
defendants, to examine the sides of
the wagon and tho wagon bed. lie
did so with a microscope of 500 magni-
fying power and found no blood on
any part of it. On the cross-examina-
tion he said that after fourteen months
h id elapsed all traces of blood would
have been obliterated by time and the
weather. He was not a profitable wit-
ness for the defense.
A witness who did not testify at the
last trial was A. J. Freeman, of Bruns-
wick, Chariton county, lie went to
Linneus the Wednesday morning fol-
lowing the murder and went to the
farms of George and James Taylor. In
James Taylor’s pasture he found where
a fire had been and fragments of
burned bedding and clothes, a piece of
burned trousers, the clasp of a pocket-

space was 150 feet from George Tav*

Chicago. July 28.—There was an at
tendance of between seventv-five and
100 listeners to-dav when Mr. Horr in-
augurated the next to the last session
:>f the great silver debate. Mr. Ilorr
opened by quoting a report ol
tho finance committee of tho
United States senate for the
purpose of showing that gold
has not appreciated since 1873 and
challenged his opponent’s sincerity in
basing his arguments in this matter
upon Sauerbeck’s tables, which are
compiled by an Englishman ami bused
upon English values.
In his reply to these charges Mr.
Harvey scored one of the hardesi hits
that has yet been placed to his credit.
He produced an article written by Mr.
Horr in answer to a correspondent
which had appeared in the weekly and
monthly editions of the New York
Tribune, in which Mr. Ilorr scoffed
at the idea which he has frequently
advanced from the present debate that
in-
lor’s house. The burne l fragments ! human labor formed a trustworthy
standard of value. Mr. Ilorr’s reply
to the correspondence, as quoted by
Mr. Harvey, concluded with the words:
"Your system seems so absurd that 1
can hardly treat it soberly.”
In reply to the charge that he had
unfairly based his argument upon a
foreign table, Mr. Harvey produced
a comparative statement showing
that his argument would have
been even more forcibly em-
phasized by the Aldrich report to
I the senate and further stated that
I Sauerbeck’s figures were based upon
his belief and the generally accepted
opinion that they were more authorita-
tive.
were introduced in evidence. The
traduction of this testimony was en-
tirely unexpected and caused a decided
sensation. George Taylor stared at
them and then began an animated con-
versation with his counsel and his
friends. Freeman two years ago was
a special detective under Chief Ilarri-
gan, of St. Louis. He is now deputy
state game and fish warden.
Mrs. Martha Meeks, the mother of
Gus Meeks, was asked if she could
identify the burned fragment of trou-
sers found by Freeman. She said the
cloth was part of the trousers worn by
her son the night of the murder. She
could not identify the elusp of the
poeketbook belonging to Gus’ wife,
but recognized the bed ns having been
taken away by her son tho night ho
was killed anil part of a picture frame.
She burst into tears as one by one the
articles were passed to her.

He also proposes the organization of

Kansas City, Mo., July 28.—The
Catholics of Kansas City who are mem-
bers of the Knights of Pythias have
taken no united action regarding the
papal pythinn decree, which was rea 1
! in the Catholic churches of this city
luring the morning services last. Sun-
day. The decree is written in Latin,
but was translated into English in ol-
der that the congregations might un
derstand its import. It condemns the
1 Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows and
i the Sons of Temperance, an east
i ern order. The right of any Catho
lie to become a member of any of these
| three orders is denied and Catholics
i who have joined any of them are given
! tho alternative of renouncing the
! church or the order. Catholics who re-
, fuse to abide by tho decree will be de-
nied the sacraments of the church and
j in the event of death their bodies can
not be buried in consecrated ground. Sr
far asknown tu> Catholic in this city is u
member of the Sons of Temperance or
the Odd Fellows, but it is estimated
i that about 100 belong to tho Knight*
I of Pythias. Some of these will un
doubtedly renounce the church, but
| it is expected that the majority oi
! them will cling to their religious faith,
obedience to tin* decrees of the hol\
see is early inculcated in the minds o-

Favor of John McCullough, of Norton,

Washington, July 28.—“The youn ;
man who will ride over 300 miles in a
wagon and camp out at night, and all
this for the purpose of passing an ex
amination for an appointment to the
military academy, I am in favor of
helping,” observed Secretary Lamont
when lie had been made acquainted
with all the facts connected with the
efforts of John McCullough, of Norton,
Ivan., to secure an appointment as
cadet to West Point
It appears that some time ago an ex-
amination was hold at Downs, Kan., I
for all who wanted to compete for an !
appointment at large, which was to be I
made by Representative Blue, of Kan- j
sas. Mr. McCullough showed the best |
examination, but it was discovered
that he was 21 years of age last March, |
and hence it was insisted by some that
lie should not he appointed.
The secretary concluded that Mc-
Cullough was 21 years old until he was
22. Reaching this conclusion, the ap-
pointment of McCullough was an-
nounced.
