Further Particulars.

San FsAScIsoo. May ~. United

ing yesterdays tragedy are learned from
him and from dispatches since received.
Hartt has died from his wounds, making
the seventh. When Poole and bis party
met the Leaguers hs advanced with
CLARK and was at once surrounded. he
stated his business and commenced
reading his authority, whom be was

and his surrender demanded. He 40.
quiesced. A portion Of the settlers then
advanced on Hartt and Grove, n OF the
horses knocking Poole down, whom the
firing begun. II 10 yet unknown who
began the firing, but Grove seems TO
have done all the killing OF the settlers,
Hartt falling wounded. Grove escaped
in the melee. but was overtaken and shot
down over Q mile distant. Pools's life
was only spared IN condition that he
would quietly leave without delay. he
was escorted to Kinssbury BY an armed
guard. Poole says he does not know
what hs shall next do In the matter. He
will lay the matter before the authori-
ties, but does not zee that they are In
position to help him. There IL NO money
to meet any expense Of the Marshal's
Department, and Congress recently
passed an Act forbidding the employ
msnt OF United States troops to enforce
any civil process. At least 200 men
would DO necessary to meet the force
which the settlers are In position 10
bring against any party that might
attempt to disposssss them. The rail-
road company will not run trains to
Hanford until they receive assurance
that their property will be protected.
The most vigorous legal means will now
be taken to settle the disturbances In
Tulsrs county. and oil on railroad lands
will DO called upon to buy the ground Of
the company or vaoate. II 10 believed
that the settlers will continue their DEM
onstrations and remain firm In their
determination.

A DEFECT IN EDISoN's ELECTRIC LAMps-The
New York Ecening Post says that owing to the
breakage of the carbon horseshoeS in about 80
OF EdisOnS lamps at Menlo Park about two
weeks ago and the suspension of their manufac-
ture for the present matters have come rather to
a standstill at Edison's shops. Mr.. Edison is now
at work trying TO find out the weak point which
causes the trouble. He thinks that the heat
emitted by the light cracks the glass at the
place where the Platinum wires enter the lamp
and that air gets in. No change can be found
in any Of the carbons which have been burning
for some weeks. AT present there are SO lamps
burning, one of which has now been In use for
nearly 40 days. a new glass blower has been
engaged and notifications may be made In the
lamp allowing for some means of carrying or
the heat emitted.

ADMITTING CoLORED PEOPLE TO THEATERs.-In
the L. S. circuit court yesterday, in the case OF
Jos Singleton. doorkeeper at the Grand Opera
house. indicted for violating the civil rights act
by refusing admttance to a colored man named
Davis, counsel for the defendant demurred to
the indictment on the ground that the act is
unconstitutional, because 1t interfereS with the
right of the state of New York to provide the
means under which citizens of the state have
the power to control their private property.
Assistant District Attorney Fiero pointed out
that this was an assertion of state rights, be-
cause 1t was, in fact, claiming that the United
States had not the power to extend to one citi-
zen right which the state itself conferred on
Others of its citizens. Decision was deferred
until the February term The question Is to be
carried to the supreme Cout.-[N y. Tribune,
