WASHINGTON. October

w ASftt 9OCt0utF
This morning ex-senator Pomeroy, OF Kan
ssts, was snot m THIS city by ex-Represena-
tive NJ. L. Conway. of Kansas. Senator POM
eroy was walking up New York Avenue, and
When near the corner of Fourteenth street he
met Conway, who drew large revolver and
when within five or six feet OF Pomeroy fired
three shots at him, one of which took effect
in the right breast just below the nipple.
Conway then put up his pistol and started to
walk off when two gentlemen, r. Stilltson
and Addison, who witnessed the shooting,
Immediately stepped Conwly, Addison ex-
claiming, stop sir, you have shot man and
mustgiye your reasons for so doing.'' Con-
way replied, she ruined myself aud my fam
iIy." Then accompanied the gentlemen to
The station house. Pomeroy, who had fallen
to the pavement. was assisted to carriage
and driven to his house in K street. near 14tii.
where physicians were Immediately sum-
moned. Drs. Bliss and Verdi have just made
an examination of Pomeroy's wound and
pronounce it only a slight one. One of the
balls passed through Pomeroy's hat and an
other through his overcoat and other cloth
ing, striking tile breast below the right nip
pie, but only penetrating the skin. 9i fSf
4 Pomeroy asserts that he never had any con-
troyersy with Conway, and has not the
slightest idea OF the cause of this attack.
4 Senator Pomeroy says Conway met him a
lew days ago for the first time in about two
years,and said abruptlv,"I am out OF money,
Pomeroy replied, .'then can appreciate
your situation, for am nearly in that condi-
ton myself This is all that passed between
them at this interview, and to-day no: a
word was spoken before Conway commenced
firing, surprising Pomeroy more than any
thing that ever happened to hiaa before.
Pomeruy is emphatic in stating he never had
any controversy or ground for difficulty with
Conway. On the contrary, he says about
three years ago he heard that Senator Sum-
ner got ConwaY's wife a clerkship In the
Treasury Department on her representation
that her husband would not support her.
subsequently. says Pomeroy, Conway tried
as trustee TO draw her wages at the Treasury
Department and failed to accomplish 1t, but
he (Pomeroy) had 10 Controversy with him
on that subject or any other. Conway is a
native of Baltimore, Md, printer by trade j;
he studied law; went to Kansas and took
part in the early struggles in that Territory
as Free State man. After serving as County
Judge he was elected TO Congrass as the first.
Representative OF Kansas. At the end of his
term he was appointed By President johnson
as Consul at MarseiIles, but was removed by
President Grant soon after the latter's inati-
gnration. He has been living in this city tor
several years. s
Conway has been released under $4,000

There is intense excitement among the
settlers and stock men in the Arkansas Val
ley south of Pueblo on account Of depreda-
tons committed by rowing bands OF Ciley-
enne Indians, who have already wartonly
killed several hundred head of cattle. The
Indians say that the white men killed the
buffalo last winter and let them rot ON the
plans. and now they are going to kill all the
caetle of the whites. Thus far. no murders
are reported, but the Indians have visited a
humber of houses ahd carried away blankets
and anything else they desired. and destroyed
other property. Many families have sought
safety in Pueblo. The schools have been
dismissed, and scouts are going over the
country collecting men, arms and ammuni-
ton. The Indians will be severely punished
If they can be overtaken.
