The latest returns regarding the dam

Cashmere on May 18th state the loss of
life at 3,0Sl persons, besides $4,000
sheep and goats and 5000 cattle. The

aspects of the calamity.

DODGE CITY, KAN, July 1.-The
situation between the southwestern
ranchmen and Texas droverS is becom-
ing daily more complicated. Through
Texas stock is rapidly accommodating at
q point south of Fort Supply and the
Candanian river. Over 100000 head
Of cattle have been stopped there by
Deputy-Marshal Bell, who has made
several arrests of persons in charge Of
cattle. Complaint has been made by
one John Landers before United States
Commissioner Cook against five differ
ent parties, two of whOm-John Blocker
and Oscar WoOdley-were arrested and
brought to this city for trial. The
parties are charged with violating the
animal-industry law, and their prclmi-
nary hearing is set for to-day. The
cattlemen declare the drive from Texas
this year is unusually healthy, and the
coming herds are in the very best con-
dition.
kilograms have been received here
from the Secretary of the Interior that
droyers from Texas have the right to
proceed unmolested through the Indian
country over the common trail. and
United States Marshal Simpson has
telegraphed that no deputy of his has
the right to detain any cattle, and can
only arrest persons fer whom they have
a legal process. The prevailing opinion
now is that the United States attorney
and marshal will receive specific in
structions from Washington au-
thorizing the safe and continued jour
ncy Of the drive from Texas to their
destination, subject to local quarantine
regulations.

BALTIMORE, Mp, July ll.-Last
fall George Nachman and Thomas Tur-
pin, proprietors of the French Fro
liques," were convicted in the Crimi-
nal Court Of keeping an obscene and in
decent place of entertainment. The
case was carried to the Court Of APP
peals, which tribunal affirmed the de-
cision Of the court below. To-day the
parties were called before the Criminal
Court for sentence. Judge Phelps said
it was the first case Of the kind in
which he had been called upon to pro-
nounce sentence, and he thought the
punishment should be such as to pre-
vent others from engaging in like dis
reputable business. He then sentenced
both Nachman and Turpin to be confined
in Jail for six months and each to pay a
fine of $3.50.

WICHITA, KAN, July 1.-The
Eagles special from the Cheyenne
agency says that the aspect is undoubt-
eddy proving more serious from day TO
day, and that troops sufficient for COM
plete police patrol will prove the only
means Of safety. The Cheyennes have
sent large number Of their best war
horses out West under the apprehen-
sion of an attack from the militia, in
which event they would be at safe
distance for raiding. Small bodies
Of Indians are slipping away every
day, and il is believed they are
all ready for 4 stampede to the wilds
in body as soon as their spies,
who overrun the agency, are salts
fed that the Government means to dis
arm them. 1t has leaked out at the
agency to-day from Indian sources that
the Indians themselves believe that the
band which went west TO "Pan-Han-
die" had been corralled by citizens aud
cowboys, but the authorities have had
no yeIifcaton Of the rumor. 1t is re-
ported that a number OF Kiowas and
Comanches have joined the missing
CheyenneS. The Government has tele-
grsphed to Agent Dyer to find out how
many Indians are off the reservation.
This order cannot be executed without
the presence of more troops to hold
them until counted. The Eagles spe-
cial says that an attempt even to take
census would precipitate fight.

Fatal Results or "a Bitter drudge.

PHILADELPHIA, July ll.-Fer
months bitter grudge has existed be-
tween Joseph Mcguire, of G03 south
Front street, and employed as bar
keeper at a GROCERY at Second and Re-
lief streets, and " Charlie the Swede,"
runner for a sailors clearinghouse.
Last night about - o'clock, as MaguiTe
was washing the saloon-pavement with
hose, the Swede made his appearance,
and without word Of warning plunged
the blade Of a clasp-knife into the bar
Keepers back. Mcguire fell, and
the would-be murderer ran toward
the Delaware. Reaching Pine-street
wharf he stopped long enough
to cast aside his hat and bloody knife
and then plunged into the river. The
Waterman at that point witnessed the
act and raised an alarm. In the mean
time the Swede was swimming in the
direction of Camden. His strength
soon failed him and he disappeared.
This morning his body was recovered
not far from the spos where he jumped
overheard. Mcguire lies in a dan
gerous condition. His wound is five
inches long and very deep.
