THE HOSTILE UTEs,
Brutal Treatment or the Captured
Women by the Savages.

Miss M G. Meeker has published
in the Pueblo Chieftain letter which
causes considerable excitement. 1t
is in corroboration of the rumor. which
recently got abroad, that while the
women Of the White River Agency
were captives in the Ute camp they
were subjected to the most degrading
indignities imaginable. Their per-
sons were repeatedly ravished BY their
british captors. The women suffer
ing untold agony on account Of the
murder Of their husbands and fathers,
were dazed and bewildered, and were
powerless to resist. Poor cid Mrs.
Meeker, over sixty years Of :tge, and
suffering from flesh wound III the
rear portion Of her thigh. became the
victim Of Douglass. who afterwards
boasted Of his protecting care Jo--
sephine Meeker was held by Persune.
and Mrs Price by Johnson Tie un-
bearable indignities were simply aug
mented by other Utes, friends of the
three mentioned In the hellish out
RACES the bucks were assisted by the
squaws. These women savages
seemed to gloat over the horrors per-
petrated on the white captives Of their
own sex. During their captivity the
sufferings Of the three women were III
describably horrible. The hellish
fiends renewed their crimes time and
time again. The poor women feared
that they would never be delivered
from a thraldom worse than death, for
death is Inconsistencies, while their
existence was living death and an
earthly hell every day. AS if all this
were not sad enough, the woes of
young Josephine are Increased by
condition that is believed to be horri-
bic in the extreme. Female acquain-
tances say that a knowledge thereof
causes a shudder to rack the frame of
every one who hears the sad tale.
Great Indignation is felt in Colorado
against the Utes, in consequence Of
the revelations, and threats are made
that no Indian prisoners will be al
lowed to reach Washington Should
all the prisoners be surrendered, it is
doubtful whether they can be taken
safely through any part Of tie Terri
tory, 50 bitter have the people become
toward them.

The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1880-01-16

A WAsHINoToN correspondent has
been looking up the records to observe
how closely the leading democratic SEN
ators were following the rules of civil
service reform. A number of the sena-
tors have provided places for their SONS
as follows. "The son of Senator Nor
gan is clerk of his fathers committee.
The son o. Senator Eaton of Connec-
ticut is clerk of his fathers committee.
The son of Senator Voorhees,, of Indi-
ana, is clerk of his fathers committee.
The son of Senator Salisbury, of Della
ware, is clerk of his fathers committee.
The SOL of Senator Vance, of North
Carolina, is clerk of his fathers COM
mittee. Senator Withers, of Virginia,
has his son.in-law for clerk; while Sen
ator Lamar, of Mississippi, provides the
clerkship Of his committee for the
brother of Senator Jones, of Louisiana,
and also has his cousin a clerk under
Adams in the house.

The Denver arribune.

There seems to be considerable curios-
ity as to Mr.. Blanchard, who appears
as one of the stockholders of the Denver
Tribune. Mr.. Blanchard is an Illinois
lawyer, a man Of fine abilities, and a
former member of congress. He has
been an annual visitor to Colorado for
several years, and is well known among
the best circles of Denver society. He
has concluded to remove permanently
to Colorado and has therefore bought
into..the Tribune. 1t is understood that
he will assume an active control in the
editorial management of the paper,
while Mr.. Beckurts will hold the reins
of the business department. Among
those Denver people who claim to be
posted in the matter, there seems to be
no doubt whatever that he holds a
large, if not a controlling interest in
the paper. From the reputation of
Mr.. Blanchard there can be little doubt
that he will add to the already good
standing of the Tribune as a newspap-
er.-TLeadville Herald.

Mrs. SCoTT-SDDoNs has MORALLY
offended the faculty of an Indiana col
lege by reading before the students in a
low necked dress. The attire got away
with the boys, but the faculty felt too
gray haired to enjoy the taste. The
men who compose the faculty must be
a specially hardened set of dried up
sticks or they would certainly have de-
lighted in the personal charms Of the
splendidly formed Mrs. Siddons. Why,
we remember distinctly how that in
Cheyenne, the decolette dress and all
that 1t didn't enclose got away COM
pletely with our bald headed contem-
porary and inspired an almost endless
strain of gush in next mornings paper.
So strong was the fascination and so
apparent withal, that MI. Scott
Siddons and Mrs. Contemporary
thought some of holding an indignation
meeting to protest against the mutual
admiration going any further. Mrs. s.
$. departed and our contemporary has
been miserable every since. But the
mere mention of her name still %electri-
6es him into a sort of an all-overish
feeling-you know how it is yourself.

THE Washington correspondent of
the Chicago Tribune gets off the follow
ing spicy paragraph touching Senator
David Davis: 1.-THE independent sena-
tor from Illinois is the tiredest man in
Washington. He was tired of poverty
until he became rich, tired of wealth
until he had honor, tired of honor until
he had power, tired Of power until he
had ease, and nov he is tired of ease.
1t makes him tired to sit two hours in
his big chair in the senate, and eat APP
Piles and catch flies. Flies are not very
nimble at this season, and ] don't be-
lieve there is more than one--I saw one
and can identify him as n recusant wit
ness, If necessary-in the whole senate
chamber. So the sport inks the indie
pendent senator from Illinois. The
senate had been in session barely two
hours yesterday, the third day after a
long recess, when the senator from
Illinois arose and announced that the
senate was tired The senate is always
easy to be convinced on this point; SO it
went into executive session, and then
adjourned over Friday, Saturday and
Sunday, until Monday. do hope the
senator from Illinois will be rested be-
fore he comes again before the legisla
ture for election. 1t wouldn't be well
for him to be tired on that OCCASION"

aid, thus relates a visit to Menlo Park
to see Edison's electric light:
1 visited Menlo Park last night and
saw the Wizard and his works. The
light is a fact. Reports on the 'the
street" yesterday that his discovery is
an infringement are said to have rub
bed down shares in the Edison Light
Company to 81, 500 each, but however
this may be the new illuminator is
every whit as much a fact as gas. The
light is not the brilliant one that is seen
in New York at various places nightly.
1t is n soft light, as agreeable to the
eye as the gas;jet, and brighter. The
lamps and the horseshoe paper which
hold it, are meant to emit the same vol
ume of light as the gas-jet. Mr.. Edison
claims that everything is complete but
thing. He has just discovered that
in some of these simple lamps cracks
so small that they can hardly be seen
with the naked eye are found. He says
he is now at work on the glass question
and that this is a mere question of
manufacturing. Only a few of the
lamps crack. Mr.. Edison has no doubt
that the c~arbonated horseshoe ''candle-
wick" for his electric illumination, which
is suspended like a black thread in a
vacuum in that little glass globe, will
burn perpetually. 1t was interesting

GEN. ADAMS, who figured So ume
ously in the negotiations wit" the ties
after all danger was past, is under a
cloud. He has endeayored, unsuccess-
fully, to play double on the Utes, and
they having discovered the deception,
are donating him handsomely. Ouray
is especially indignant and is telling all
manner of things which he knows of
the militia general. In '6S the Utes
were sold a lot of Texas cows under the
representation that they were fine Jer-
sey mich cows. The difference in cost
was $40 each. Ouray says Adams was
the instigator of that fraud and reaped
the i'll starred gains of the transac-
tion.
An investigation was had at the time
and Gen. McCcok exhonorated Adams.
That, however, was to be expected,
since McCook and Adams married sis
tiers. Still, Adams might have been
innocent nevertheless. But he will
have another opportunity of prov
ing it.
Another thing brought up by the
shrewd Indians is that they were in
formed that Adams, who is German,
changed his name from Schuimbeck.
1t is clear that Adams wonderful in
iuence with the Utes is at an end.
