How Loco's Band Were Butchered.

A letter to the San Francisco Chron-
icle from Separ Station, gives a graphic
account of the slaughter of Loco's band
by the Mexicans who were under Gar
cia. 1t says: The Indians were pur-
sued by General Forsythe for thirty
miles across the Mexican border and
close to the Hannas river in Mexico,
where about 250 Mexican troops, be-
longing to General Terassas' command,
were concealed in small willow-fringed
creek, tributary of the Hannas river.
The Indians, unaware of the ambush
into which they were being driven, fell
into the trap. The Mexicans lay per-
fectly quiet until the Indians were
within hundred yards of them, and
then poured in sudden and murderous
fire. The destruction was almost COM
plete. Sixty warriors fell at the first
volley. The young and vigorous war
riors scattered and hunted cover. The
Mexican soldiers then charged upon the
old bucks, squaws and papooses, who
formed the center of the column. None
were spared. Squaws were bayoneted,
and the children and babes were taken
up by the heels and their brains dashed
out against the rocks. One old gray
headed Indian died game. He was con-
cealed in hole amongst the roots of
large willow, and succeeded in killing
eight of the Mexicans before they could
discover where the shots came from. He
was finally dragged out and completely
cut to pieces. counted seventy nine
dead squaws and papooses. Loco was
killed and Ju severely hurt.

THE WORST STORM YET.
Eight Persons Killed and Forty
Injured Railroad Travel Sus-
pended Great CONSERVATION in
Western Texas.

DALLAS, Texas, May lO-A most ap-
palling storm disaster occurred Monday
night, near McAllister. AS the wires
are down for miles full details cannot
yet be learned. Reports of the extent
of the storm are conflicting, but the most
reliable is that eight persons were killed
outright and forty wounded. Many of
the latter will die. 1t is certain that
this number is no way exaggerated, and
the probability is that the fatalities and
casualties are much larger. The disas-
ter occurred at the coal mines, three
miles from McAllster Station, on the
Missouri, Kansas 4 Texas Railroad. The
storms came from the southwest and
southeast in triangular shape, and ap-
peared to meet and center near McAllis-
ter. A great deal of damage was done
near Paris. The buildings at the Nc
Allister mines were completely demol-
ished. Temporary buildings have been
arranged for the dead and wounded.
Physicians have gone up from here, and
all the aid possible will be sent forward.
The storm extended generally through
Texas, Arkansas and the Indian Terri
tory. Railroad travel is suspended in
nearly all directions by washouts. There
Was great hail-fall with the storm,
which extended as far north as Fort

to reverse the names.
The San Diego Sun says that switch
is being constructed to connect the rail-
road with the new wharf, so that the
cars can be run out, bringing ship and
rail together. This move proves conclu-
sively that the heavy business of the
port will be done at this wharf instead of
at National City.
The Union says that some remarkably
fine specimens of bituminous coal is be-
ing exhibited at San Diego, taken from

The Cotton Semi Tropic says that con-

whose name we could not learn, in the
employ of Mr.. G. A. Cowles in Cajon
Valley, was bitten by a rattlesnake on
Friday. The bite was in one of his fin
fiers. He detached the team from the
wagon, jumped on one of the horses and
rode with all speed to the house, where
he procured razor and cut the wounded
finger off. We have not heard how the
man is getting along.

Railroad Land Grants.
CHICAGO, May l0.--The Tribunes
Washington special says: An analysis of
the letter recently sent to Congress by
the Secretary of the Interior relating to
the so-called lapsed land grants shows
some extraordinary results. 1t appears
first that the area of lands granted to
the Northern Pacific, Southern Pacific,
Oregon Branch of the Central Pacific
New Orleans Pacific and Oregon and
California, is ll5, ,45S, ,2lS acres, or over
10000 square miles-more territory
than is contained in all the
New England States, New York, Penn
sylvanla, New Jersey and Maryland;
second, that before the time expired by
which the granting acts required the
roads to be finished, these corporations
had earned by the construction of miles
of railroad pro rata for the number of
acres granted, only 1865, 1913 acres, or
29,09l miles-less than sixth of the
total amount offered, but territory
equal to all of New England, except
Maine; third, that since the expiration
Of the time set for the completion of the
road, or up to the present time, enough
miles have been completed to entitle the
roads, if the principle is admitted that
corporations have an equitable claim to
lands pro rata foreachmile of road built,
to IA, 26l, 344 acres, or %, 2S3 square miles
% VciIiooiy niSCi VIGIL Vic 'iO0 vi
Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecti-
cut and New Hampshire; fourth, that
by the failure to comply with the terms
of the grants these corporations have alb
solutely no claim to 1854, ATS acres, or
l30, 1856 square miles, which is now with
held from settlement. This is territory
nearly equal in extent to New England,
New Nork, New Jersey and Maryland,
or to the three great States of New York,
Pennsylvania and Ohio, with a popula-
'ef 100000 people.

Dilke's Bill Suppressins Crime


LONDON, May 9.-The Standard of
yesterday morning says that Sir Charles
Dixie declined the post of Chief Secre-
tary for Ireland, because the seat was
not accompanied by the promise of
seat in the Cabinet. The bill which he
introduced in the House for the preven-
ton of crime in Ireland will include
clauses dealing with secret societies and
providing for the trial of agrarian offenses
by special tribunals. 1t is probable also
that in cases of outrages, heavy fine
in the shape of compensation will be,
imposed in districts in which the crimes
are committed. 1t is expected if the
bill does not interfere with personal lib
erty and the right of public meeting, the
Irish members will not offer serious op-
position. Both Houses of Parliament
meet Tuesday.

Ncp YORK Tunes.
The unprecedented extension OF the
amount of the appropriations OF the last
fiscal year until August Sd is the best pos
sible indication of how completely the
present Congress has failed in the discharge
of its first duty to the public. The series
of extensions of which this is the latest in.
to pass upon all public expenditures, and
in any country governed by constitutional
methods they must be equally mischieyOus
in effect as in origin. The assumption OF
such right by the executive power has
precipitated more than one revolution, and
is not long ago since the issue between
Crown and people in Germany was
narrowed down to struggle over the right
and duty of the representatives OF the peo-
pie to deal with each years appropriations
on their own merits. What would be
usurpation on the part of the Executive is
something more than mere sloveHlinesS or
incapacity on the part of the representative
body. 1t is evident that the influence Of
the present Congress for good or evil is at
an end. A quorum of the House is held
together with great difficulty to await the
action of the Senate on the still unfinished
appropriation bills, and no attempt to add
to the volume of general legislation, how
ever necessary, has now the slightest
chance of success.

SECOND DISTRICT POLITICS.

Dir. JNO. BARTON PAYNE, of Preston
county, has been quite an active factor
in the Democratic canvass in the Sec
end Congressional district. He has
published what purpOrts to be a memo
randum Of an agreement between him
self and Hon. JOHN BLAIR HoGE,
whereby Congressman HoGE agreed
not to be a candidate for q second term
in case Mr.. LUCAS would withdraw in
his favor at the FairmOnt convention.
This agreement Judge HoGE has denied
rs being false and has given reasons
why it could not be true. In the men,
orandum above referred to, Mr.. PAYNE
says:
al then went to Mr..
Lucas, told him what had done. He
was entirely satisfied, but expressed
some fear about our ability to nominate
Hoge, and thought We could not do so
unless Capt. Bradford could be gotten
Offthe track. l thereUpOn went up
street, saw Capt. Bradford, told him
that myself and Others were anxious to
secure the nomination for Hoge instead
of Martin, and that it could be done if
he would withdraw. He consented. l
informed Mr.. Lucas, who started at
once for the convention, then re-asSem-
bling"
In answer to this Captain BRADFORD
writes card to the editor of the Bar
bOur Jc6crSoniaa, in which he says:
al saw for the first time on yesterday,
q notice Of contract, or agreement, of
some kind which is said to have been
entered into by Judge Hoge and Mr..
John b. Payne, acting for Mr.. ID. b.
Lucas, at the FaIrmont Congressional
Convention, 1880, in which reference is
made to me as acting part in said con-
tract or arrangement. Mr.. Payne is
certainly in error when he says / con-
scented to it. 1 knew nothing whate Yer
of it, and do not now remember Of see
ing Mr.. Payne at all, at FairmOnt, ex-
cept upon the speakers stand, or while
he was engaged in the business Of the
convention . never
made political bargain of any kind in
my life, and have never directly or in-
directly been concerned in any"
Editor SARGEANT in commenting on
The above, says that Mr.. PAYNE has
made mistake; his recollection has
failed him, and he didn't copy the MEM
orandum when the facts were fresh in
his memory. What has Mr.. PAYNE
to say?
