\ gentleman, n resident Of Kansas, who
arrived in our city last evening, informs

Denver, in pursuit of Montgomery, had
returned and reports that he came up with
that person, and upon showing his author

Montgomery informed him (the Marshall

invasion of Kansas by the Georgians and

Hamilton, after the commission Of The
recent horrible murders, had fed from the

nor Denver will offer reward for his ap-

proper steps will be taken to bring him to

Affairs at Fort Scott are still in an UNI

the conduct Of the government officials

most insulting to persons of free state pro-
cliyltics, who visit the land Office for pre-

Senator Stewart and the Future.

We hear it currctly reported that Scna-
tor Stuart, on his return to Michigan,
will canvass the State in vindication Of
the policy he has persucd in Congress Oh
the Kansas question, and that in this eff
fort he will be seconded by Senators
Douglas and Brodcrick, and by MeSsrs.
Walker, Stanton, Forney, and other en-
incnt gentleman connected with the Dem
ocntic party. Should an active canvass
transprc before the holding of the next
Democratic State Convention Of Nicli gan
it is hardly possible to conceive the inn
portant results flat would arise. Certain
it Is that Senator Stuart would be heartily
aud cordially endorsed by ninc-tenths OF
the Democracy o. the State, under the
lead Of such men as EX-Marshall Davis,
Hon. f. W. Shcarman, \. +. Bell, Hon.
John Harmon, and hundreds of other
prominent Democrats, who never have
endorsed and never will epdorse the Kan
sas policy of the present administration.
The direct and immediate result of this
movement would be to place the State
policy Of the party wholly in the hands eff
Mr.. Stuart and his friends, while the
strenth Of the supporters Of the Admins
tration would sink into an insigniicance
unworthy of observation. The strength
of the Administration in Michigan is
based simply upon its patronage. 1t has
no innate strength with the masses Of the
people, who are Independent of this infu-
cncc, and care but little for the ipse djrjt
of its recipients. This is an incontestiblc
fact, disguise it as they may by popular
demonstrations or the cxultant tone of
a vcnal press. On the other hand the re-
cent course of Senator Stuart has been
emincntly popular, and especially 50 with
the sincere and genuine advocates of pop
ular sovereignty. Hence we say, that if
Senator Stuart carries out the policy as
above indicated, it will present more of
the characteristics of the triumphal march
of a conqueror, that Of the sclf-yindica-
tions of politician.-Koi. Tel.

Eleven Men Murdered in Kansas.

We have just received news of the hor-
rlble murder Of eleven men in Kansas
who were shot down in cold blood by a
party OF ruilians. The party of murderers
consisted OF twenty-five men, eight of
them lived in Kansas and seventeen i'm
Missouri, most of them in the vicinity of
West Point, just over the border, which
has been the seat Of Blue Lodge. and
which was formerl the rendezvous of the
invading army led by Gen. Clark. The
leaders of the PARTY were Brockett and
Hamilton, who have had prominent part
in all the Border-R uffian violence of
Southern Kansas, and the latter of whom
was one Of Buford' men On the morn
ing Of the 10Th Of May this party made
their appearance at the store of Mr.. Camp
bell at the Trading Post on the military
road from Fort Scott to Fort Leavenworth,
where it crosses the Usage River, some
fifty miles north Of Fort Scott, and there
fore quite removed from the recent trou-
bles there. They took Mr. Campbell
prisoner, and then proceeded along the
road for two miles and a half north, till
they had taken twelve in all. These men
were taken when at their work, unarmeG,
and without resistance. They had not
been implicated in any Of the troubles of
Kansas, and some of them were recent i'm
migrants. The only resistance encoun-
tered appears to have been from black
smith, who refused to be taken prisoner,
fired upou the Rufians, killed Brockett' 5
horse, slightly wounded the rider, and eff
fected his escape. The prisoners being
taken into a deep ravine in skirt of tim
Der, were there ordered to form into line,
which was the first intimation Of the fate
that awaited them. The command was
then given, Ready Aim Fire when
the horsemcn discharged their mu.kets,
loaded with buck-shot and ball at q dis
lance Of five PAGES, and the whole twelve
prisoners fell to the ground. -Four were
dead and seven others wounded, one Of
whom was afterward killed by the rufia IS.
Only one escaped unhurt. The murder
crs, after rfing the pockets of their vic
Tins, rode off leaving them all for dead
The man who was unhurt then ran back
and gave the alarm The news of course
spread fast The murders were commit
ted about | o'clock, and before midnight
300 men had assembled at the post but
except Capt. Montgomery and his men,
they were very ill-provided with arms
Expresses conveying the information and
asking for assistance arrived at Lawrence
on the 23d. The murdcrcrs were sup
posed to have taken refuge at West Point
and the intention was to march upon that
place and demand them. Meanwhile
there is great excitement, both in Kansas
and the border counties of Missouri

In consequence Of the financial embar-

IS somewhat greater than was apportioned
last year. But the number of children

Free Press and its co-adjutors ought to be
the last ones to reproach them.
One other question Mr.. Clapp pro-
pounds, viz: "Why has 81, l25 more been
expended for the years 1885, SO and 81
than for the three years previous to 1893 =
We answer that Mr.. Clapp has not shown
a particle of proof that such was the case,
or that there is any more truth in that
statement than in the others which he has
made, and which we have shown to be so
utterly devoid Of truth. Mr.. Clapp might
as well discontinue his reiterdtj0H of those
statements that we have shown to be false
and deceptive, unless he can produce some
evidence to refute what we have stated
AS we have before said, so we say again,
that if any reliable and candid man of The
Democratic party will call on the under
signed we will prore to him, from the
Records, beyond a doubt, that every state
ment of IL. c. Clapp, to which we have
alluded is just as Fraudulent and fuse as
we have represented. And that the char
gcs which we have made against him OF
defrauding the county are literally true

From Utah.

There appears to be nothing definite
about the news from Salt Lake about the
Governor being driven out A gentleman
at Leavenvorth, who read all the letters
from Camp Scott, up to May 9th, says no
mention is made in them of it. At that
time nothing was known there OF what was
going on at Salt Lake-thcre being, UNI
fort lnately, a row between the Governor
and Gen. Johnston, and no official inter
course between them. The letters state
that Johnston would march to Salt Lake
the last of May-so the army is doubtless
there now. 1t is quite certain, however
that dispatches from Gov. Cumming to
Secretary Cass have come through, which
arrived at Camp Scott subsequent to May
9th, with instructions to put them through
with all speed, and that the two Mormons
who brought them reported the driving
out of the Governor. We are inclined to
think that the dispatches from Gov. Cum
ming-still in Great Salt Lake City-are
the result of consultations between Gov.
Cumming and Brigham Young We shall
soon see how this is 1t all may he a re-
port started at Lcavcnworth, to help pass

AnneNing Fngl md To the French Crown.

Emile Girardin has had several inter
tcrviews with the French Emperor of
late; and as pamphlet-wrtten by him
upon the subject Of the facility with which
a descent might be made in England and
the case with which that country might
be annexed to the French Crowns 90
ing the secret round of the political salons,
it has been supposed that these interviews
had been sought by Girardin to expose
his ideas uuon the same subject. The
tenor Of the pamphlet, which is kept a
strict secret from the public and is printed
for private distribution only may be judg-
ed, when addressed to the Emperor, it
opens thus Let your Majesty remem-
Der that the event of your imperial Males
tvs reign is yet to come. No Austarlitz,
no Leipsic, no army, and with navy
which now stands first in Europe, your
Majesty might accomplish deeds far more
brilliant than these. Even the pallid
reign of Charles the Tenth has left \ lge-
ria as legacy of glory to the nation
even the short-ivcd republic has left us
the occupation of Rome by our victorious
troops. Let, then, the conquest of Eng
land be the one immortal feat of arms
which shall render your Msjesty's reign
even more glorious than that of Napoleon
the First, whose fate it would so nobly
avcngc.'

10000 Indians on the Plains--Deter.
mined IIOstilities against the Whites.
Erou, tbo Eor, Smith T;nos Ev..a ALL !,


Col A. McKissick, agent for the Witch
tia Indians, and Woods i Rogers, of the
Albuquerque expedition, arrived to-day,
and we learn from them, that in couse-
qucnce of the hostlties of the wild Indi-
ans, aud ldvices Of friendly Indians, the
company for Albuquerque reluctantly aban-
doncd the expedition.
Jessie Chisholm, half-blood Cherokee,
who has been trading with the Canaan
ches for twenty years, started a few weeks
ago with goods on trading expedition to
the Camancho Nation, and after travelling
several days, was met by a company of
friendly Indians who had been to the
place where all the wild tribes had assem-
blcd, and had a talk with them, and they
advised him to return Immediately, which
he did, as the wild Indians were very
hostile.
They told the friendly Indians that the
great chief out West, had sent dclcga-
ton, who had told them that this great
chief was to make war on the people Of
the United States, and that Inc was able to
poison the whole mosphcrc, and Kill the
whites off by thousands The wild tribes
knowing that the troops have beer With.
drawn, are congregatcd near the Antelope
Hills, along the head waters Of the Cana
dian and Red rivers, preparing for de-
scent on the frontiers. This is move on
the part Of Brigham Young to draw off
the United States troops from Utah to
to protoct tho from tior Sto+os
The Indians on the reserve with Major
Neighbors have all joined the wild bands
on the Plains. Near Fort Bclknap, they
have killed some Of the frontier settlers
and stolen a number Of horses. Major
Neighbors had raised company of whites
aud friendly Indians to pursue them.
Chisholm demonstrated with the Albu-
oucrquc company about going on the cx-
petition, as 1t was next to impossible to
get through the multitude Of Indians be-
tween Arbuckle and Albuburquc. Their
camps and lodges extend for 80 to 200
miles The DelawareS, Shawnecs, and
other friendly Indians, also advised the
company to return.
The settlers apprehend trouble from
these wild tribes, and the Kickapoo In
dians are at Fort Arbucl;le, intending to
protect the public property there. In the
neighborhood Of Arbucklc there is great
CONSERVATION, and the people live in CON
slant fear, as there never has before been
such a large collection of hostile Indians
in the neighborhood.
Chisholm has sent out Il rumor. while
the albuquerque company was there, to as
certain the true state of affairs, and the
messenger brought in Kccchi chief, who
informed him that it was fact that all
the wild Indians were combined. that wa.
was their determination. Dclawares arri-
we'd at Fort Arbucklc wccI, last Tues
day, who stated that the Indians had al
ready killed several on the Texas frontier.
