WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-Indian Commis.
stoner heachann writes Oct. 2, . private letter
from Los Pinos, detailing the past forty eight
hours Of excitement when the Utes, stripped
tor fight, demanded the murderer Of the
Indian. He says the facts of the affair were,
that an OK teamster upon little or no provo
cation killed young johnson, son Of chief
Shananaux, thirty miles from the agency.
Next morning fifty armed Utes came before tho
agents door and demanded the blood of the
murderer. Every man with arms uncovered
and the wife and mother of the dead boy FILL
ed the air with wild cries. Berry and Mea.
cham assured them that the man should be
caught and the agent went out after the MUIR
derer, followed by these mad human tigers.
To satisfy the Utes, fifteen men and one
officer went along, and at Cline's rancho the
murderer was found in charge of the citizens.
Soldiers guarded him all night, the Indians
firing over the guard. The scene was ex-
citing beyond description. It was ono o'clock
at night when all became quiet. The citizens
desired to wreak vengeance on the murderer,
and the Indians sat watching like hYenas
every movement. Berry worked as man
never worked before to keep the Indians from
exploding, but at 0 o'clock the Utes prepared
for general slaughter, saying: sNo use
white man no die; all the Utes die, white
man no care" The citizens understood their
|
prisoner to their charge, and they started
with him to Gunnison. The Utes appeared
to agree that the prisoner might be taken to
Gunnison. The army escort then left for
camp. Berry and remained until every
thing seemed settled and every Ute had start
ed fer home. Last night the three white
men, good, sober men, came into the agency
and reported that the Utes had surprised
them and taken them prisoners. They were
terribly excited. The name of the murderer
is only conjectured at this time. The Utes
are coming in as close this. They seem
quiet, and think the peril is over unless an
attempt is made to discover the rescuers of
yesterday.
Commissioner Aeacham, in letter of Oct.
9th from Los Pinos, says he belives the COM
promise with the Indians was in good faith
BY Agent Berry, by the citizens and the Indi-
ans. 1t was no put up job, as some of the
teamsters CLAIM. The Indians would not
consent that the murderer should % to the
military camp, but said they would allow him
to 60 to Gunnison If his trial and conviction
would follow. The escort was chosen by the
prisoner himself, and II was believed the dan
ger was over.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.--The following
dispatch, dated at Los Pinos agency, Oct. 1G,
was received this afternoon at the Interior
department. and Immediately made the sub
ject Of consultation with the department
justice, bat no decision was reached. Mean
while the press dispatch announced that Agent
Berry and other persons for whom warrants
had been issued had been arrested and lodged
in the Jail at Gunnison:
To Secretary Of tie Interior,-
I have this day called on the commanding
officer of the post in this vicinity to eject from
the reservation one Smith and Others who
claim authority to arrest me, and which
don't recognize. Furthermore, l consider
the peace and welfare of the Indians and the
country in general, Oh the reservation and in
the state. demands the course.
(Signcd) BERRY,
Agent.
Secretary Schurz, before leaving Washing
ton to-day, telegrapled as follows:
To Coo. Pitkin,
Denver, COl.,-
The associated press reports that two COM
panes of militia have started for the Ute
reservation to arrest Agent Berry, and that a
conflict between them and the Indians is an
ticipated. 1t seems almost inevitable that if
this proceeding goes on, conflict will come,
~
obedience to the state process on the part of
the government officers, will be entirely ready
to enforce such process without an aggressive
movement Of state troops, calculated to bring
en- disastrous conflict with the Indians.
ANY prisoner arrested under process is Ell
titled to absolute protection against mob viu-
lepce, and state authorities should accompa-
ny arrests with an adequate guaranty of per-
soi.al safety to the prisoners. This being ev-
i,lent, there will be no reason why the ac-
cused should not willingly obey any lawful
process, aud if they did not, certainly the
government of the United States would not
co,,ntenance any such disobedience. most
certainly press upon you to arrest any move
meut or conduct on the part of the state mi
litia which can possibly lead TO so disastrous
a consequence as an Indian war would be.

BAY4RD,s BUaBEIR.

Senator Bayard's resolution or bill de-
priving the currency of the United States of
its legal tender quality has already been rel
egated to the domains of the past. The
public is indebted in some degree to Mr..
Bayard himself for the result, for the simple
reason that he, with magnanimity that is
not Unborn in politicians, cast his own vote
in favor of Disagreement.
We are perfectly willing to give Mr.. Bay
ard the credit for being right. He was
wrong in introducing his bill, but he was
right in voting against it. His bill, now
happily out of the way, was one of the most
pernicious measures ever proposed in Con-
gress. Its object was to unsettle the condi-
ton of our finances for many years to
come. and was dictated from tho same
source from which all our monetary derange-
ments seem to flow. We do not assert that
Mr.. Bayard drew his inspiration from that
source, for We are firmly of the belief that
ne is too honest man to be Influenced by
any power that seems to run counter to his
individual views.
We are glad, however, to be able to
record the disappearance of this disturbing
element from our politics. On no subject
was there such reason for unrest a. upon the
financial topic covered by Mr.. Baysrd's bill.
1t embraced all the opposition of many
powerful combinations to our present sys-
tenn, and was drawn in such a manner as to
command the respectful consideration Of all
parties. 1t was the strongest card of the
demopetizers. 1t has been played, but has
not taken the trick, and the public is to be
congratulated on the fact. Our financial
system ia to be allowed to remain on its
present basis, and though it may be Imper-
feet, it is nevertheless better as it is than ~
it would be under the provisions of Mr..
Bayard's bill. Congress has evidently learn
ed the very useful lesson of knowing when
to let we'll enough alone.

MISPLACED AFFECTIONS.

The Troubles of Chslked visaged Cancas-
sian Female and senegambisn Bro
Their.
1t is trite saying that water and oil can
not be made to mix, and it is just as true an
axiom, that the extremes between the chalk
visaged Caucasian and the midnight features
of the Senegambian won't fraternize, ANAL
gamate, or coalesce worth an antideluivian
copper. The troubles that are bound to ar
rise from misplaced affection, or an alb
sence of affinity was illustrated in the police
court yesterday morning in the woes of a
mixed couple who had only been married
week.
The prosecuting witness, Mrs. Josephine
Bailey, is fair faced, vain looking female,
as white as chalk and quite as insipid, while
Charles Bailey, her husband, wears a face as
black as charcoal, dis6gured and repulsive by
tue possession of fiat, expansive nostrils,
big lips and teeth that would turn the stom-
acb of the most shiftless hog. The couple
we're married week ago to-day and the
trouble took place in Rogers block last
Thursday, when the Benedict grossly abused
bis bride and threatened to throw her down
stairs.
The particulars of the fight were detailed
as given in yesterdays issue of the GLOBE,
the testimony going to SHOW that he had br,,-
tally beaten This wife, whom he suspected %
infdelity. The duskey hued Lothario and
captivator of womsn's b. art was sent to the
bastile fer fourteen days.

Democrat, who like his Republican con-
freros, becomes infected with the mania for
office and thereto sacrifices principle for
place, or who comes here weakened at the
outset. There are indeed to be found no.
table examples to the contrary, instances Of
spartan virtue worthy of widespread COM
memoration- examples of old true-blue
Democrats, loyal and answering to the
backbone, who have manfully resisted all
temptation to desert their faith. Among
these are such notable exemplars of the true
faith, as Captain Geo. Egbert and Uncle John
McDonough aud several others, who still
and will stand tirm-come what may-for
veal or for Voc. These, to their honor be it
said, few though they be, stand firm and
undismayed and will continue to hold the
fort, without regard to assaults from with
out or assertions from within.
DEMOCRATIC Possibilities.
The consequence of this condition Of af-
fairs il that the Democracy is unorganized
and without commanders. Yet Democratic
possibilities are to an impartial observer by
no means as hopeless in the territory a. the
present condition Of affairs would seem to
indicate. The Republicans are divided into
hostile cliques and an irreparable split is imj
minent at any time. The division of the
territory and the ultimate admission into
Union of both halves as States are matters
of momentous importance to the people Of
each, and these, with slight manipulation,
can be made potent factors in advancing
Democratic interests, so long, certainly, as
the party retains control of Congress. But
of this more anon.

Rural Rooster Robbed.

Yesterday morning John Marks, young
man hailing from Egan town, Dakota county,
reported to the police that he had been robbed
on Thursday Of SlS. so in cash, silver ring,
set Of studs and some articles of clothing.
The property was taken from his trunk by a
man named Anthony Skorg, who was working
with him on the farm of David Haus, at the
above mentioned town Yesterday afternoon
while Baliff James Mullins was passing along
Robert street he saw two men engaged in fist
fight. He promptly interfered and conducted
the men to the police station, where one of
them was recognized as John Marks, the party
who had been robbed, aud the other as Anthony
Skort, who committed the robbery. Marks, it
seems, vas in town with load of hay, and
while standing on Robert street saw Skorg
passing on the other side Of the street, and i'm
mediately tackled him. Skorg was searched,
and vest. set of studs, pair of gloves, three
handkerchiefs and twenty-five cents found on
his person. The balance of the money and the
ring. he says. was stolen from him at Swede
Armies dive on Fifth street, which place he
visited on Thursday. A telegram was sent to
Sheriff Newell notifying him of Skorgs arrest,
and he was locked up to await orders.

RRPUBLICANRULR.

It would have been we'll for the Repub-
lican party if some discreet friend had closed
the mouth of Senator Sharon, of Nevada.
The political sentiments he recently ex-
pressed to an interviewer are going the
rounds of the public press, and are not likely
to meet with favorable response from the
people. He is a millionaire of the first class,
and no doubt gave utterance to what is near
est to his heart. No comment Is necessary.
Hear him:
I'VE need o stronger central government
the wealth of the country demands it; with
out capital and capitalists our country would
not be worth fg; the capital of the country
demands protection; its rights are as sacred as
the rights of the paupers who are continually
prating about the entertainments of capital
and Capitalization. We have tried Grant, and
know him to be the nan for the place above all
others. He has nerve. As President, he
would be commalder-in.chief of the army and
navy, and when the communistic tramps of
tho country raised mobs to tear up the railroad
tracks, and to sack cities on the sham cry of
bread or blood he would not hesitate to turn
loose upon them canister and grape. The
wealth of the country has to bear the burdens
of government. and it should control it. The
people are becoming educated up to this theory,
and the sooner it is recognized in the constitu-
ton and laws the better it will be for the peo-
pie. Without bloodshed-and rivers of it
there will be no political change OF admins
tration. The moaeyed interests of the coun-
try, for self-preservation, must sustain the
Republican party. The railroads, the banks,
the manufacturers. the heavy importers and all
classes of business in which millions are in
vested, will maintain the supremacy of the
Republican parry. Democractic success would
be bankruptcy to them. To avert fearful
bloodshsd, q strong central government should
be established as soon as possible
