DISPUTED TERRITORY
The Controversy Between Texas anal tn

The Controversy Between Texas anal the
Government.
News reached here to-day, says an Aus
tin special of the 10th inst, to the St.
Louis Republican, that the Commander of
the Department of Missouri, acting under
orders from the Secretary of War, has
issued an order directing all settlers to
leave the territory known as Green couu-
ty, Texas. The Secretary, it is said,
bases his action upon the claim
set up by himself that Green county
does not belong to Texas, but is a
part of the Indian Territory, and acts
upon the authority of the United States
statute passed in 1882, giving the military
the right to remove inlruders from the In
dian Reservation. A copy of the order
was received by Gov. Ireland this after
noon, and he is astonished at its contents.
He Immediately wrote to President Ar
thur on the subject, taking issue with the
Federal authorities, and cites the fact that
the Secl etary of the Interior already de-
cided that Green county is a part Of TEX
as, and calls attention to the Presidents
message to Congress, taking a similar
view Of the question.
If the order is carried into effect-and
from indications It will belt will result
disastrOusly to hundreds of settlers who
located in the county during the past two
years on representations made by the
State Of Texas. 1t is suspe cted that the
peremptory order of the Federal auth ORR
ties is probably due to the fact that GER
tain landmen and speculators are now
endeavOring to make purchase of tlle
entire batch of land certificates issued to
veterans, which, under the laws of Texas,
can be located in Green county. Last
year the State appointed a commission to
act with one to be appointed by Congress
TO settle the boundary line of the State,
and determine whether or not Green
county is a part of Texas, but thus far
nothing has been done by Congress.

FRELINGHUYsEN's PRECAUTIONS.
THE CHOLERA PANIC.

Parisians Getting Ready to Move at the
First Appearance of the Plague in
that City.
1t is estimated, says World cable
gram, that 10000 people have left Mar
seilles since tie outbreak of cholera
there, and the distress consequent upon
such an abnormal exodus from that CITY
and Toulon, particularly in the outlying
districts, which depended almost solely
for existence on their urban trade, is pitt
full. 1t is now feared that similar panic
in Paris is imminent, many of the wealth
ier families having already made arrange
ments to depart at the first sign of the
disease.
Many prominent newspapers in Germa-
ny are urging the government to recall
DR.. Koch so that he may be at hand to ad-
wise his own people in the hour of peril.
Dr. Koch remains firm in his already ex-
pressed opinion that the cholera scourge
must spread throughout Europe. 1t has
taken so firm hold in such large centres
OF communication as Marseilles and Tou-
lon that he believes it must run its course
during the summer throughout cOntin-
entail Europe. He says that America, If
great vigilance is exercised in quarantine
precautions, will probably escape, but
holds out no hope for countries insulated
simply by technical frontier lines.
In England great uneasiness is begin
ming to manifest itself in the large cities
because of the negligence of the authori-
ties In taking necessary precautionary
measures against the Introduction of the
plague. 1t is urged by prominent physi-
clans and other scientists that the conf
dence resulting from England's insular
position is misplaced, and that without
the most perfect sanitary inspection some
incoming vessels from a Mediterranean
port will slip in and bring cholera, with
all its attendant horrors,

EXPENSIVE PANToNIIME.

The Young Man Who is Fond of Flirt-
ing Meets With a Mournful Expert
ence.
l know young man who is just trife
fond of flirting, says the San Francisco
Chronicle. He has that sympathetic and
altogether charitable notion that great
many young men have, that any lady
who sits alone by the window watching
the passers-by must inevitably be lonely
and pine for masculine attention. Several
mornings as he came down town he saw
what he took to be a wistful face
at a bay window looking longingly in
the distance. He first became curious,
then interested, and finally excited. The
lone, lone female should not pine in
vain or waste her young life in loneliness
if he could help it. He gradually worked
up smile for her, growing broader and
broader, until it assumed the proportions
of a grin. He thought she appreciated it,
and he kept it up. "Ah, me tits sweet to
know there is an eye that watches for our
coming and grows brighter when we
come." At last he mustered courage to
add low bow to the smile. She did not
show any displeasure. The other morn
ing he came along smiling so broadly that
he could be seen two blocks off. She
was at the window. He raised his hat,
and just as he did she rose, disappeared
for moment and then returned with a
gentleman in his shirt sleeves. to whom
she pointed in significant manner, and
baby which she held up to him in the
most kindly and expressive way. The
young man goes down the next street in
the mornings now.

A PARTISAN TRAGEDY.
A Brutal Crime and a Discovery tn
Smacks of Monsieur Lecocq.

A Brutal Crime and a Discovery that
smacKs of Monsieur Lecocq.
The details Of a singular and horrible
tragedy which happened very recently in
Paris, says the Paris Morning Nelos, have
just begun, by the merest chance, to
emerge from the mystery which has envel-
oped them. In the early part of May the
trunk of human body was taken from
the waters of the Seine near the bridge
Marie, and on the following day the head
and limbs, which evidently had belonged
to it, were found near the Pont Neuf. At
first it was supposed that the corpse had
been thus mutilated by collision with the
prows of the steamboats, plying up and
down the river. A surgical inquest, how
ever, established the fact that the irag-
ments found were the fearful revelation
of a crime. The police then began to
search for clues, and, aided by unhoped-
for circumstances, have got at last upon
the trace Of the truth.
A cafe waiter named Miel, living at No.
% Rue de Lyon, suddenly disappeared on
the 2Sth of April last. The evening before
a strange incident occurred at his
lodgings. Mel was already noted for his
evil ways. He had taken breakfast in
company with another man. After the
repast cries for help were heard issuing
from his windows, followed by plaintiye
screams.
A neighbor-for the whole house was
agitated by the sounds-knocked at MiePs
door and asked what was the matter.
Without opening, Mel simply responded
that he was quarreling with his mistress
An hour afterwards he descended and
told the concierge that he had friend in
his apartment who had tried to throw
himself out of the window and that he had
restrained him with great difficulty.
These facts drew the attention of the
police, but were supplemented by an
other one which threw an entirely differ
ent light upon the affair. A dog was
noticed bowling about the shore Of the
Seine, near the Pont Neuf. 1t was learned
that the little animal belonged to one
Francois Lebon, shopkeeper in the Rue
des Juifs, No. IL, and that the latter had
disappeared from his home precisely on
April 2S.
The police also established that on the
evening of this day Mel had caused to be
removed from his lodgings two chests
filed with something that weighed heavily.
and that they might easily have contained
a corpse cut up as that had been which
was found in the Seine. The outline Of
the crime was thus complete. A search
at LebOn's apartment left no doubt as to
its motive. The money and securities
which had belonged to him had been

CHOLERA HELPING TRADE.

New York Drug Men PrOfiting by the
Scourge.
A New York letter to the Philadelphia
Ledger says: The cholera in France has
stimulated the demand even in this mar
ket, for a numerous class Of drugs and
disinfectants that are used in the treat
ment of it, and prices have sharply ad-
vanced in consequence. Since this day
week opium has gone up % cents a pound.
and sulphate of morphine 20 cents; oil
peppermint IS also in demand for export
to France at higher prices; camphor is
also in brisk request, and dealers antici-
pate an advance; chloride of lime Isl up
% cents per 100 pounds, and large pur-
chases are reported in the English market
for continental account; carbolic acid
crystals have advanced from % to 35
cents per pound. The principal manufac-
turer in this country has lust received an
order from the New York Board of Health
which will absorb at least the total pro-
duction of fortnight.
1t may be stated in this connection that
the Health Department this morning se-
cured lease of the premises 149 to 155
Worth street, for the purpose Of manu-
featuring disinfecting fluids. The depart
ment has also purchased eight new tank
wagons for the transportation of disin-
fecting material to different parts of the
city. These works will have capacity
for furnishing, if need be, 5000 gallons
disinfectants per diem. In future all
complaints received by the Health De-
partment, as to nuisances in yards, streets,
sewers or Out-hOuses, are to be sent to this
place, and route for each wagon is pre-
scribed by the Superintendent. This looks
like business in the right direction and at
the right time.

ATHENS, GA, July 14.-The State
University commencement was con-
tinued to-day by a literary ad-
dress before the college societies by
Hon. p. F. Smith, of Newman. His sub
ject was ''Patriotism." He made a most
finished and eloquent speech. The Sopho-
more declamations were well attended
this afternoon. NJ. A. Purse, of SaYan-
nah, was one of the contestants. and
made a fine speech. The crowd of visi-
tors is very great. The city is full and
the hum OF voices on the hotel verandas
Is incessant. The board of trustees have
elected W. A. Little, of Columbus, and
n. B. Hollis, of Americus, to fill
vacancies in the board. Both have ar
rived in the city to discharge their duties.
A strong sentiment is prevalent IN favor
Of branch colleges, and the Board of
Trustees have increased the appropria-
tions $1,000. 1t has been year of great
prosperity, both for the University and
its branches. The improvement in de-
clamatiOn is marked and admirable.
Public exercises were held tonight. The
Delta Chapter Of the Chi Phi fraternity
gave hop in honor of their alumni at the
elegant and hospitable residence of Hugh
n. Taylor. A large number of friends
were present.
