The following letter. addressed to gentleman in this
cty together with the extra, from The Kansas CITY
Lnterpra", have been handed TO us for publication:
We do not think that any great reliance can be placed
in the accounts given by the extra although is highly
probable that the Ere, State have been aroused,
by the numberess extortions committed agains them
to show fight. The whole affair however, may turn
out to be like the murder Of Sheriff Jones' who was
sbot with rad for the purpOe, perhaps, of giving
color to the Outragos aferward committed, aud in
which the murdered man was well enough to lead III
person. although lying at the point of death few days
previous:
