LONDON, June 24.-Members of the Glad
stone ministry went to Windsor Castle to-day
and delivered up the seals Of Office. Soon after
they had retired from the Castle members Of
the new ministry arrived and went through
the ceremony of accepting Office from the
the queen and receiving the seals, making
acts of obeisance by kissing the hand of her
majesty. A great crowd assembled at the
depot upon the arrival Of the train bearing
the new.ministry. Salisbury and Northcote
were loudly cheered, especially the latter.
Churchill on the contrary was received with
mingled cheers and grosns.
GLADSTONE. REVEALS THE COVENANT.
In the house of commons this afternoon
Gladstone read the correspondence between
himself and Salisbury relating to the recent
dead lock in the cabinet. The letters of
Gladstone convey to the new government as
surances OF general support on the part of the
liberals but make no specific pledges. Sew
eral new writs for election were ordered to be
issued and the house adjourned.
The correspondence which Mr.. Gladstone
read comprised series of letters, the dates
ranging from June IL to June q, in which
Lord Salisbury demanded pledges of liberal
support to enable the conservatives TO finish
the absolutely necessary business of the session
by giving the new government q precedence
on those days fixed for supply or appropria.
tion bills and If no other way of meeting the
difficulty were feasable, to let the name of the
tax remain at Sd for the remainder
of the year, leaving the deficit
to be met by an issue of exchequer bonds on o
temporary loan. Lord Salisbury explained
that it would be useless to take the office
without the support of the liberal leader, be.
cause an appeal to the country under the
seats bill would be impossible before Novem-
ber. MIR. Gladstone, in reply, gave assur-
ance that the liberals had no wish to embar.
rass the new government. After con-
sulting his colleagues he informed the
queen that he conceived it would
be contrary to public duty to compromise the
liberty of the house of commons by giving
specific pledges not to oppose the remaining
business of the session before possessing all
the facts bearing upon such business. He CON
cluded by assuring the queen that the facili-
ties for expeditihg the supply might reasona.
bly, be provided and there would be no at.
tempt to withhold the ways and means re-
quired for the public service, but he could
give no specific pledges in regard to underlined

PANAMA, June 24.-The new regime in
Spania does not seem to share happier fate
than many of its predecessors did. Local

as arbitrary and oppressive, and nothing less
than dictatorship, intensely iliberal and alb.
solutely irresponsible. A forced loan was the

at 100000. This was assessed in such q man
ner that the poor were called on to pay as
much as fhe rich. Only about one half
was collected. Now the rulerslpropose q new

This amount is to be levied on those who
favored rebellion, those who assisted in the

A UTE rBREAK,

A TERRIBLE STORY OF INHUMAN MASSACRE BY
THE INDIANS IN LA PLATA COUNTY.
Special to the Denver Tribune Republican.
DURANGO, Col, June 22.-The air has
been full of rumors all day, and stories OF
Indian massacres and troubles. Out of the
hundred wild stories your correspondent has
succeeded in learning the following as facts:
A messenger came from the Dolores, near
Great Bend. this morning with note from
County Commissioner William May ask
ing DIR. Winters to come down imme-
diately, as the Indians had killed his neigh
Dor, by the name of Geuthner, and had badly
wounded his wife Mrs. Geuthner. The mes
senger also stated that the Indians had
burned Geuthner's house, barns and hay
stacks. 1t is a.so reported from the Indian
agency that the cowboys had killed a family OF
Indians consisting of six, that one young buck
who belongedto the same family was wounded,
but got away and came to the agency at Ig-
naclo and told his story, and at once $50 war
riors came to the agency and demanded re-
yenge. Agent Stollstelmer pscihed them by
agreeing to go to-day withtwenty five of their
number to Fort Lswis, there to get an escort
of soldiers and 60 with them to the scene OF
the trouble on the Dolores and investigate
the whole matter. see who commenced the
trouble and get the bodies Of their six dead
Indians. Accordingly the Indians passed
through the city to-day with the agent or
| their way to Fort Lewis.
Another messenger arrived this evening
who brings the report that party of indians
met Mr.. Joe Daugherty, the brother of Cap
tain Daugherty, Of the twenty-second United
States infantry, now stationed at Fort Lewis
while on his way from here TO his home nea
Mitchell's Syringe, and killed him and hay'
taken his wife into captivity.
Capt. Perrine, who was in camp in th'
Montezuma valley with three comp anies, sen

scene of the murder, and 1t Is stated to

A LONG MARCH.
MilitDaIncn to Start for
Southeast Missouri this
Morning.

twenty-five men of the St. Louis
Light Cavalry, accompanied by a
section of Battery A. St. Louis ar
tilery and representatives of the
Washington artillery of New Or
leans, under the command Of Capt.
Henry and Lieuts. Abadie and
Ware, leave this morning for trip
through Southeastern Missouri. The
troops will leave the National Guard
armory at Z a. m. sharp, the Wash
ington artillery taking the lead in
the march, followed by Battery A
section, with Sergt. Jas. Johnson in
command; Troop a, st. Louis Light
cavalry coming next, with Quarter
master Sergeant j. A. Sloan's wagon
train bringing up the rear. The
troops will march from the Armory
down Olive street tc Broadway,
down to Carondelet, and from there
to Point Breeze. Capt. Henry and
his assistants have thoughtfully pro-
vided for every contingency that
will contribute to the comfort and
satisfaction of his command; large
quantity of ammunition has been se-
cured so that ample opportunity
will be afforded the men for prac-
ticing en- route. During the march
the men will rest in the afternoons
and enjoy the pleasures and novel
ties Of camp life. Nearly all Of the
marching will be done before the
middle of the day.
AT Ironton, Frcder.cktown and
other points, sword exercises, drill
ing and other interesting features
will be engaged in by the troops.
Gen. Rozier's invitation to them to
participate in the ceremonies in
commemoration of the centennial of
the foundation of the town of Ste.
Genevieve, has been accepted and
their stay in that place will likely
be somewhat protracted. All of the
participants in this jaunt anticipate
a glorious time, which they will
doubtless enjoy to their hearts con-

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From Our Regular Correspondent


Evidences accumulate daily that
new and better governmental era
has dawned upon the country, and
that the hope for a purer and more
business-like administration which
expressed itself in the election of
Cleveland will not be disappointed.
1t is safe to say that it has been
long time since the laws were so
thoroughly studied and so honestly
enforced as they now are, while the
present generation sees for the first
time a sincere endeayor to check
extravaganza and the willful waste
Of the peoples money.
The government receipts and ex-
penditures for the month of June
1884, and 1885, are significant as
showing how far administrative re-
form effects the balances. For the
month of June 1885, the receipts
were s27,157,0l5,55; June 1884,
S26,932 2,0SS,30; expenses for June
1885, s15,255, ,G5S,1l; June 1884,
s16,116,113,90. The increase of
receipts can largely be placed to
the increased vigilance OF the Gus
toms service, under the spur of the
new administration, in preventing
frauds in undervsluation. The re-
duction in expenditures of over
eight hundred Thousand dollars is
the immediate result of the initial
passage of the Jacksonian broom of
retrenchment and reform through
the Federal service.
The claim made by the Democrats
in recent canvasses that it was high
time to have a look at the books
has been abundantly sustained. In
every department, and in almost
every bureau of the Government ir-
regularities are coming to light.
Secretary Manning is overhauling
the Internal Revenue Bureau, re-
organizing the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing, and reducing this
charity hospital to business princi-
pies, and he is breaking up the ring
which has flched the fifty millions
or so from the Treasury department
by undertaking their importstlons.
The Agricultural department has
been overhauleu with results disas-
ferrous to the regulations of mealy
mouthed Lorlng, and his subordin-
ates. The land grabbers have been
checked, and on every hand evil
dences of recklessncss and eXtrava-
gance are coming to light. The
last bureau to be heard from is
Coast Survey, the accounts of
which are under suspicion and in
vcstigation by the Auditor. The
wholesome feeling now is that all
these Investigations will be honest
ones, and that the innocent will be
vindicsted, while the guilty will not
be whitewashed. For such is Dem
ocratic reform.
Since the reorganization of the
Bureau Of Engraving and Printing
over two hundred persons have been
discharged without their loss being
