FRENCH SPOLIATION CLAIMS.

The Intelligencer, week. before last,
mentioned the assembling in this city
of several persons interested in French
spoliatiOn claims. The Boonviile Ad-
vertiser of this week says further of
the same claimants:
Captain w. A. Thornton, of Higgins
vile, Mo. and Mr.. w. 7. Bowen, of
Wytheville, Va, were in town recently
comforting with Judge B. G. Clark, of
the probate court, in regard to taking
out letters of administration on the
estate Of James Miller, who died in
Boonville many years ago. Mr.. Mil
ler was interested in a ship destroyed
in the great French revolution, about
1902, and his claim against the United
States government is part of what are
known as the French spoliation claims,
a bill for the payment of which passed
congress at its last session. On the 18th
of June meeting of the heirs of Mr..
Miller was held at the office of WAL
lace y Chiles, in Lexington, to consid-
er the best way in which to secure the
amount of the claim. There were pres
ent Mr.. j. A. Hansborough, of Abb.
lene, Kansas; Mr.. w. A. Hansborough,
Of LeavenwOrth, Kansas; Mrs. j. p.
Babbitt, Mrs. G. G. Nunnelly and Mrs.
Miller, of Dallas, Texas; MIR. Bowen
and Mrs. Elizabeth KounselOr, of Lex
ington. These represented the surviv-
ing heirs of Mr.. James Miller. Capt.
Thornton was duly appointed admins.
traitor of the estate, and with MIR.
Bowen came to this city last week as
stated. They had a consultation with
Judge Clark in regard to bond, ETC.,
but took out no formal letters of ad-
ministration, leaving Mr.. John T.
Pigott, Of this city, to represent their
interests. The original claim amounted
to about $15. 200, but principal and in
tesest together make a sum of over
$1OO,OOO The heirs express great con-
fidence in their ability to secure the
payment of the claim.

A DETERMINED MIssOURIAN.

CLARENDON, Texas, June 26.-The
following are the facts in regard to the
shooting OF George and Sam Morgan,
better known as ''the Morgan boys"
by VIM. e. Harrison, from st. Louis
or Higginsville, Mo-, it is not certainly
known which. The party, consisting
of Harrison, the Morgans, one Parker
and others, were herding on the trail,
taking some 900 cattle to Deer Lodge,
Mont. The Morgan boys. it is claim
and his partner, and OH Sunday night,
June IA, Harrison told the Morgans
not to call him ahead of time, and that
ii they did 30 he would not get up.
Shortly after this the call for change Of
watch was made and Harrison and
Parker went "on." Nothing was said
till next day at dinner, when George
Morgan remarked that he would kill
the man who said they didn't stand
their time. Harrison said: "Boys,
want no trouble, and as you are about
| the worst men in Texas, you had bet
ter go and leave us alone. amt
afraid of you or all the fellows like
you" With this the Morgans pulled
their guns. When they had fired two
shots without effect, Harrison smiled
