Mexican Prisoners.

Omaha, Jan. 11.-Quite a notable
party of Mexican prisoners passed
through Omaha last night for the De-
troit house of correction. The party
was composed of Col. Thos. Martinez,
Feliciana Marquez, Ricardo Garcia,
Maruel Castillo and Louis Rama. They
were the leaders of a revolutionary
party organized and equipped in Ari-
zona, last August, against the Mexican
government; their operations being
directed against Sonora. They had
about $50 followers. Tney were tried,
convicted, and sentenced to five years
in the house of correction at Detroit.
The crime with which they were charg-
ed was the violation of neutrality laws
between the United States and Mexico.
They were all at one time in the mill
tary service Of Mexico, and Col. Mar
tinez was conceded to be the finest
cavalry officer in the Mexican army.
The prisoners were heavily ironed and
were in charge of J. w. Evans, deputy
United States marshal, and Charles
Dake and j. Bouton.

Garfield NJ wiiiIam. Co,,ere

Cleveland, JAM. 11.-Garfield, at a
meeting of the alumni of Williams
college tonight, said: While I have
admired and loved the children of Will
liams gathered here tonight, yet it
may not be a gallant thing to say,
have adopted in my own mind, for my
own use, and perhaps perverted it, a
line of Horace, who said on certain
occasion to praise woman, ''Oh, beau
tiful mother more beautiful than the
beautiful daughter" so say to you to-
night: 'Oh, Williams, more beautiful
than the beautiful children here to-
night" Greater to me than all of
them, because she includes you all.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE Post
(dem. to-day violently denounces Gov.
Murray for what it terms his "disfran-
chisement of the people of Utah." 1t
says that his allegation that Delegate
Cannon is not a citizen is VIGOROUSLY
false, and was known to be so by Gov.
Murray when he made his decision.
1t than takes the position that although
it would be entirely competent for the
house to expel Cannon for polgymay,
the governor was bound by law to give
a certificate to Cannon and had no
more right to refuse it on that ground
than on the color Of his eyes or the size
of his boots, and that Murray is liable
to impeachment for refusing it. In
the course of further editorial remarks
in the same vehement style the Post
says: While the people of the United
States detest the one odious practice of
the Saints they will not see the funda-
mental principle Of the republic tramped
under the foot by a petty despot in
Utah. 1t would be thousand times
better to deny that the territory had
any representative at all than to declare
its people outlaws and put the army
over them-to accede that one-thir-
teenth of them are the majority and
entitled to rule.
The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1881-01-12

Philadelphia, Jan. 11'-While two
colored women, Mrs. jackson and Mrs.
Shannon, living at s26 North Fifteenth
street, were at work to-day they heard
cries from Mrs. Shannon's two months
old child; rushing up stairs they found
three year old son Of Mrs. jackson
sitting ON the floor by the screaming in
fant with red hot poker in his hand.
The baby had been terribly burned
about the mouth and an examination
showed that the Jackson boy had forced
the poker down the baby's throat.
The child fingered in great agony until
tonight when it died.

Two Children Burned to Death

Reading, Pa, Jan. 1.-THE resi-
dence of Wellington Moser, Centre
avenue, was destroyed by fire this even.
ing, caused by the explosion of kero-
sene lamp. The explosion occurred in
the dining room where the family had
just finished supper. The clothing OF
three children was ignited from the
burning oil, and two of them, a baby,
six months old, and Sallie Rothenald,
aged IA, who had just called, were
burned to death. Their remains have
not yet been recovered. The third
Mary Moser. aged 8, was rescued, but
is fatally burned and will probably die
before morning. David Maurer, a
boarder, was badly burned while trying
to save the children.

Ex-Mayor Cooper said he was not in
accord with the members of the com.
mittee, and, therefore, desired to re-
sign therefrom. A viva voce vote on
accepting his resignation was taken,
but the chair expressed doubt as to
the result, when Harris said he knew
that it was the general wish of the
committee that the resignation of
Cooper should be accepted, and he
hoped that those who had voted no,
would vote aye. A vote was again
taken and carried, there being but four
faint noes. The chair appointed DIR.
Newman, Jas. Talcott, Col. Algernon
S. Sullivan, VIM. A. Cole and Cornelius
N. Bliss, committee to report plan
of permanent Organization, and sug-
gest names for permanent officers.

subject: A permanent executive COM
mittee shall be elected, and to consist

mittee of finance and 25 to be nomi-

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE secretary
of war transmitted communication to
the senate to-day calling attention to
the fact that the Atchison, Topeka and

through Ft. Bliss, Texas and Ft. Win
gate, New Mexico, reservations with

it is urged that the desired right of way
over the reservation in question be
granted during the present session of
