SALT LAKE, Sept. la letter from
American Falls, dated August 3lst, says:
Yesterday morning conductor Lane re.
tlot heI raTugad IN
their fare, and when told that they
would be put off the train pulled revolv-
ers, but with the assistance Of the train
men, Lane left them near Bannock
Greek. Some time during the afternoon
the men came into town. Both were
well dressed and behaved in qdiet
manner. This morning Deputy Sheriff
from Pocatelle was on the train, and
seeing the men near the track and told
them he wanted them. They replied
that he could not take them alone, and
had their guns in their hands. The Dep
uty then asked for assistance, and while
getting ready, the men started on the
road to Warm Creek, town about four
miles from here, when they were over
taken about two miles on the road by
the Sheriff and posse. After calling on
them to surrender several shots were
fired over their heads, but as that did
not stop them one of them was shot in
the leg. As he fell he put his own re-
volver to his head and fired, cauaing
instant death. His partner was then
told to hold up his hands and after be-
ing dsarmed was brought here with the
remains of his friend. A special train
arrived here to take the prisoner and
witness to Pocate, where an inquest will
be held. The prisoner gave his name as
Bert Beers, and claims to be from Dead
wood. The deceased's name is Mark
Keogh and is about 25 years old. Beers
is about % years of age.
A Receiver Appointed.
BUFFALO, Sept. la motion was
made in the Supreme Court before Judge
Childs to-day, for receiver for the
Burrows estate, a large part OF which
was dissipated by President Warner, of
the Albion National Bank, who was
entrusted with its management. The
motion is made by the attorney of Eliza
Glenn, creditor of the estate, who has
begun an action against Louisa Z.
Burrows, as Administrative and others as
executors. The counsel for the
executors opposed any change of man
agement, but suggested that if change
be deemed necessary that Charles
Moore be appointed. Judge Childs
said he was very clearly of
the opinion that the Supreme
Court should take charge Of these af-
fairs. The dissipation of this large estate
was due largely to the executors in sur.
reno its management to one man.
He should grant an order appointing
receiver and the counsel might consult
and agree among themselves upon some
body for the important place and also as
to the amount of bonds required. Chas.
H. Moore was appointed receiver and
justified with tonds in the sum OF
100000
The Coal Miners strike.
Coal CENTRE, Pa, Sept, 1.-The
Sheriff did not call at the mining camps
to-day and in consequence the miners
are still ON the ground and as determined
as ever. Neele's mines were not visited
to-day, and the officers on the ground
had quiet time. A call was made to
attempt the works, but the non-union-
lists, after peaceful consultation, de-
clined to come out. The event of the
day was the arrival at Courtney of
number of HuDgarians for the purpose
of going to work at the Garfield mines.
No Hungarians have heretofore been
employed in this district, and their adj
vent at this time is regarded with con-
cern. A camp will be established at
Courtney tomorrow to prevent them
from going to work. The operators say
that il the strike continues much longer
Hungarians will be introduced at all OF
the mines.
