HOW AN APAcnE INDIAN RUNS DOWN

one hundred and twenty-five miles in

starts at full speed, making long leaps OF

rapidly on the Indian, but the latter fol.

Resolved, That in behalf OF this Territory
this board protests against the passage of any
such law as has been suggested in the intert II

Special TO the Sentinel:

Special to the Sentinel:
NORTH MASCHESTER, Ind, Feb. 5.-A few
days ago Matthew Tracy, a wealthy farmer
living about seven miles east of here, drove a
lot of hogs to Springfield and disposed OF them,
receiving a check as payment for the hogs.
About $50 in the evening he started home,
that being the last seen OF him. On the
bank OF the Eel river his boots and hRtchet
were found. which were covered with
blood and hair. From the looks of things
terrible struggle took place between the We
tim and the murderer. Search was immedl-
ately made by the people of that vicinity, but
the search proved unsuccessful. Among the
most prominent in the search was one Henry
Forrest, a former empIoye of Tracy. 1t APP
pears there was an old grudge between Tracy
and Forrest. Forrest knew that Tracy
had gone to Springfield with some hogs.
On Monday Forrest left for parts unknown,
suspicion being 80 heavily upon him. Officers
learned he was ia Fort Wayne,and went there
70 arrest him yesterday. Forrest Is five feet
two inches high, red, curly hair, heavy chin
whiskers and mustache, will weigh l4O pounds.
There - a reward of sSc0 for the murderer Of
Tracy. As vet the body can not be found.

Report of the Commissioners That Inyesti-

NEW YORK. Feb. 5.-The special committee
OF the Indian commission has completed its
report in the case of eX-Comm issiOner Hayt.

I'VE can not consider Hayts excuse for with
holding important papers from the secretary
ditional evidence and correspondence
submitted 10 the department OF justice,
together with the aflidavts IN January,
does not add to the strength of the testimony
sufficiently TO show why the same may not
have been transmitted before. We can not
avoid the conclusion that while one case
against ex-Agent Hart was promptly for
warded to the department of justice for eXecu-
tion with regard TO the other case involving
more serious charges, neither the commissioner
nor inspector were sufficiently in earnest.
Inspector Hammond admits that in the spring

zona OF Edward Knapp, the so-called nephew

in this transaction, was passing under an as

fact that the commissioner declined to give

for a consideration, as charged, may be taken
as sufficient that the commits

by the ex-Indian agent, charged with gross
offences through his own son, under an as
sumed name of his intimate friends, a fact
which can scarcely be relieved by his own as
surance that he has no Interest In the trans

New Fruit Press.

A press which is constructed upon quite
novel plan, and which presents some fea-
lures of value to the householder, has been
invented for the purpose of extracting juices
from fruits. A tapering screw, journsled at
its larger end in a bracket, or holder, de-
signed 10 be fitted TO the edge of a table W sth
clamps, and having suitable handle, forms
the press An iron cylinder tapered to it
closely over the screw, carries at the large
end hopper for the fruit and at the snail
end spout for the re Sected refuse. The
lower side of the cylinder is open, and
stralners OF different degrees OF &neness may
be placed inside to cover this openings. In
use the cylinder is slipped over the crew
and clamped to the bracket. and the fruit to
be pressed is placed in tbs hopper On
turning the handle the fruit is conveyed
along the cylinder and pressed at the same
time, the juice escaping through the strain
er to vessel placed below, the dry skin,
seeds, and other refase. being expelled at the
end of the cylinder. The same apparatus,
by slight change in its parts, May be used

THE MINORITY REpoR7

A. q Barstow presented a minority report.
TO which he SAYS: General Hammond's testi-
nony, which OF all the evidence offered alone,
directly connects Commissioner Hayt with the
wrong doing charged, which was taken on
January %. but was AfterWard
altered. In this alteration his testimony
on one important point was entirely
reVerfed. Though there are many suspicious
circumstances which bear against Mr. HayE
sufficiently to justify his removal, they DO not
necessarily imply guilt. II the circumstances
raise doubts, the accused is entitled to the
benefit of them.
The report of the committee was adopted by
the full board. They also adopted the follow
ing resolution:
Resolved, That in view of the facts devel-
oPed in the report of the special committee
touching the conduct of the late commissioner
