a QUESTION or PROBABILITY.
Contested A dministrstiou Of the Estates Of
Husband and wife Lost ut yea.

Tho Kings county Surrogate has been
asked by the Public Administrator TO set aside
the letters Of administration granted to Charles
W. Rogers on TIE estate OF Henry Rogers aud
his wife Of Brooklyn, who were lost In the burn
ing OF the City Of Waco In sight OF Galveston
Light on Nov. l, 1875. The Public Administrator
contended that tho letters should issue TO Mrs.
Bates. the sister Of Mrs. Rogers, az there was
nothing to show that she had not survived her
husband. All on board the ste amer perished The
body OF Mr.. Rogers was found on Bolivar Penln-
sMla, and the BODY Of the wife was never found.
Ine counsel for the Public Administrator con-
fenced mat ~ the persons died In the same
calamity, II should be held that they died at the
same instant. The wife held 5000 In a savings
bank, on which special administration was
sought The counsel for Chas. Rogers, at pres
ent tho authorized administrator, held that as
Henry Rogers was a strong, powerful man,
healthy, cool and determined, and his wife was
lat, complaining. nervous person, the pre-
sumption was that he survived her. and Chan
cellOr Walworth, he said had held that a pre-
sumption OF fact In such case was to- he drawn
from the evidence Of the physical condition Of
the respective parties. In this case, Mir. Rogers
was found with his pantaloons on, aud she prob
abilities were that his wife never left her berth.
She must have persisted before the mast fell
yet, nevertheless, two men were seen cnRng
to the spar, one Of whom might have been
Rogers. The Surrogate reserved bis decision.

MORE TROUBLE WIN INDIANS.
Threatened War that Might Exceed In
MIngnitnde the War with the >iomn.

WAsnlNGToS Sept. 20.-Gen. y. o. How
ard, commanding the Department OF the Co.
lumbia, arrived hero this afternoon on an I'M
poriant mission, he says to settle the existing
trouble and Misunderstanding between tho
Nez Perces and white settlers In the valley oc-
cupied by them. Several months ago one Of
the Indians was killed by two OF the whites,
and up to the present time no effort has been
m ade TO bring the offenders TO justice. The In
dians, incensed by tho delay and seeming indif-
ference on the part o: the whites to punish the
murderers, had threatened TO burn the
houses OF the white settlers who, under
treaty stipulation. they claim had no
right TO invade the valley. The threat
alarmed the whites In the vicinity OF the home
lection OF their friends. At tins juncture Gen.
Howard sent troops to the valley, with orders
not to allow either the Indians or the whites to
provoke hostil ties. At Cheyenne he had an ia
terview with seer, tary Gamer IN anu gen. Sher-
man, who recognized the Importance OF the
prompt Intervention Of peace commission, and
for tue ORGANIZATION q this commission Gen.
Howard has come 20 Washington. The princi-
pal dif1culty lies Ia the absence OF an appropria-
ton our OF which civilians could he paid II ap-
pointed therefore members will be selected
from officers Of the trmy ana agents Of the In
dian Bureau. Gen. Howard says that should
trouble begin II would result In an Indian war
OF no small magnitude. and put tbs Government
TO an enormous expense 10 end IT, Tue nOu-
treaty Indians IN mat locality-ihe borders OF
Idaho and Oregon-are numerous. and would
seize upon tho slightest pretext to XIII the
whites.
Gen. Howard also urges the Importance OF
tho smuggling Of liquors and arms into IN 4 Ter
ritory. At present the responsibility Of prescrv-
Ing tue peace devolves upon United States troops
belonging TO his department. A revenue cutter
can do more Than small army besides, IL would
allow tho soldies to DO used on the frontier, or
IN the Southern States, which would suit Gen.
Howard lust well.
