AN INDIAN LYNCHED.

ST. LOUIS, June GA special from
Las Vegas, n. NJ, says that on Saturday
night, as a man named r. II. Hutter was
walking on the street with his wife, an
Indian desperate named Francisco Ia
jOya, better known as Navajo Frank,
threw a laTiat around Hutter's neck, put
spurs to his horse and rode off at rapid
rate, dragging the man over the rocky
street for hundred yards OF more. The
fiendish Indian made his escape, but in
very short time a mounted posse of
men captured him, brought him back to
the city and placed him in Jail. Yester-
day between IL and o'clock crowd of
citizens assembled at the Jail and de-
manded the release the prisoner, but
were refused. They then entered the
Jail by force. The cell keys were han
ded over and Navajo Frank was taken
out and after desperate resistance by
him rope was put around his neck.
He was marched to telegraph pole,
where the moose was tightened and he
was hOisted up and left hanging in the
air

that favor in order to retain his nIace.
IL was the knowledge that the Iihertv of
the Otice-hOlder in this matter ia Tins
impaired which led Congress to pass the
act OF protection to which our circuIar
refers: That act recognizes, as universal
experience and the reason of the case
snow, that Government emplOye whose
family depends upon his wages is not
deluded by the phrase, voluntary con-
trlbution," and fears that he cannot re.
tuse 10 pay without taking the risk of
dismissal. His refusal, indeed. wOuid
not be alleged as the reason, but it WOuld
be the reason; and to say to an employe,
as the circular of the COMPASSIONATE Com.
mlttee says, that his contribution will
not be objected to in any official quarter,
is merely TO tlghten the screw. 1t is a
hint to him that the demand is known
and approved by those who can dismiss
him. You assert your Willingness to ask
the President to ask the opinion of the
Attorney General. But your circular
has been sent to the employees in the At
tOrney Generals office, and it distinctly
assures them by necessary Implication
that the head of the office does not object.
II you read the newspapers carefully
you are aware of the very general public
cOhuemhatlon OF the practice of political
assessments; and they are n 'emned for
the precise reason that such assessments
are not what they pretend to be-"vOlun-
tary contributions" If you ask me to
contribute to your treasury, am a priv
ate citizen and | can give or refuse with
out suffering. But if you and YOUR as
soclates ask my neighbOr, who is en-
plOyed in the Custom House, for a con-
tributiOn, he feels that he is in danger
If he declines. This is the infringe
ment OF the equal liberty of citizens
which makes this practice Odious, while
Its inevitable consequences make it
threatening to the public welfare. The
association of which have the honor to
be President will spare no lawful effort
to restore that equal liberty to every
citizen. Respectfully yOuIs,
GEORGE WILLIAM CURTIS,
President of the New York Civil Service
Reform Association.
EFFECT OF THE LETTER ON MR.. HUBBELL.
WASHINGTON, June 25.-Chairman
Hubbell, of the Republican Congress
siOnal Committee, is in state of mind
over the prompt responses from the Civil
Service Reform Association and Mr..
George William Curtis to his challenge
to test the question of the legality of the
2 per cent. assessment on scrubbing-
women and pages in the courts. The
original Curtis letter had an inspiring
effect among Government employees.
HuD0elIS reply was intended merely as
an offset, and its bOldness was designed
to OveTwhelm Mr.. Curtis and be a warn
ing against further encrOachments upon
the campaign committees assumed pre-
negatives. The spirited response, how
ever, has rather taken Mr.. HubbelPs
breath away, and from the chuckling
mood into which his bluffing letter Of
Friday threw him he has become sour
and glum, and has been going about to-
day scOwliAg and refusing to recognize
acquaintances. 1t is not dreamed that
he will consent to become a party to
test case in court.

Committee Rep0rfS.

WASHINGTON, July 15.-Under call of CON-
mittees for the reports this afternoon seventy
two reports were presented to the house,
mostly from the committees On claims and in
valid pensions. Those of public character:
By Representative Carlisle, from the ways and
means committee, favorable upon Representa-
tive Ellis bill to exempt perique tobacco

OF "carottes" from payment of the tax of 16
cents per pound Row required by law. The
object Of the bill is to exempt tobacco put up
II this form from paying double tax. Under
the ruling Of the internal revenue department
''carottes' are now taxed 16 cents per pound,
as a manufacture of tobacco, and the tobacco
composing them, when used in the manufac-
tUre OF cigarettes or smoking tobacco, is SUBJ
jected to a second tax. Representative Wash
burn, from the committee on commerce, re-
ported favorsbly upon the bill authorizing the
erection of bridge across the Mississippi

ported favorably the joint resolution to author

tions from the Netherlands, Spain and Japan,

published here, and sent out by special, of a
heavy defalcation in the Chicago, Rock Island

basis for the story is that the man referred to
has left the office without explanation, but he
was only clerk, handled no funds, and could
not have taken money except by colIusion of
the express companies or banks, something
extremely unlikely to occur. They are max

A Boy Breaks His Leg

A little boy about twelve years of age,
named Charles Ketner, met with quite Sc.
rious accident yesterday forenoon. The boy,
with Others of about the same age, has been
in the habit of herding cattle out on the
prairie, and has made the trip
10 the pasture ground by Jump
ing on the short-lire trains and
riding out there. This he attempted to do
yesterday, but instead of succeeding met with
an accident that will probably prevent him
from herding COWS for the remainder of the
season. AS he attempted to jump onto the
switch engine, little below the bridge, he
slipped and his left foot was apparently
caught under one of the wheels and badly
crushed. He Sas also thrown down and in
some way his left thigh was broken. The
little sufferer was taken up to the office of
Drs. Murphy & Quinn, where his injuries re-
ceived such attention as they required, and
subsequently ne was removed to No. 125
Washington street, near Chestnut.
