A MURDEROUS FAMILY.
Two Sons and Their Father Murder Two
DEPUTY Sherifrs.


EVANSVILLE. Ind, juno 3.-Particulars OF
the terrible tragedy at Jasper, Ind, have
come to hand and are 1s follows; Robert
p. Reeves is a farmer of Dubois county, &c
years old, and noted as hard character,
having already served term in prison. lie
has two sons, John, aged 35, and George, 30,
both saloonkeepers in Terrc Haute, and
rated as desperadoes. There has been an in.
dictment for grand larceny in Martin county
hanging over them for the past two years,
but for some reason no attempt has been
made to serve it. A few days ago the sheriff
of Dubois county received a warrant with
orders to arrest the boys, then at Their
fathers farm. The sheriff swore in two
deputies, John Gardner and VIM. Cox, for
this purpose. The two men found no OPP
portunity to arrest the men until Monday,
when old Reeves came to Jasper leaving
his two sons mile from town. The depu-
ties, by watching the old man, found the
hiding place of their men, and arrested
them. While going to town old Mr.. Reeves
said TO Gardner, "Thats pretty pistol you
got: let me sre it," The officer handed the
pistol to Reeves, whereupon the prisoner
tried to shoot him, but was prevented by
Cox covering him and telling him not to ut.
tempt it, Reeves then shot Cox in the wrist,
Old Reeves then fired two more shots al
Cox, one entering the thigh and one the
back, paralyzing him from the waist down.
Meanwhile the sons had shot Gardner four
times, two shots taking effect in the back,
one in the left arm and one in the forehead.
After both men were rendered helpless the
sons went through Gardeners pockets secur-
ing 80 in money and some valuable papers.
They also appropriated Gardeners ID Cox's
revover5 and their horses and escaped. The
wounded officers lay suffering intensely I'm.
til evening, when they were discovered by
farmers and brought to Jasper, whore med
ical attendance was procured. Gardner
fingered until a. m. and diei. Cox is YET
alive but cannot live. The authorities have
taken no steps leading to the apprehension
of the murderers. Officers remain inactive
simply because no reward has been offered
for the arrest of Reeves. Citizens are ex.
cited and loud in condemnation of the aU ion
| of the authorities.

THAT AFGHAN TROUBLE
eurTsMPoRARlLY sMooTHE0 OVER,
General Lumsden talks About the Great
Dimculty-Russia Bent on Reopen
ing the Ouestion-The kecep-
ton to Minister Phelps.

LONDON, June 1.-The Times Constan-
tinople correspondent reports an interview
which he had with Gen lhumsden. The
general said that he believed the Difficult
ty had been only temporarily Smoothed
over The Russians were vislbly bent
upon reopening the question within few
weeks or months ut best. Gen. Lumsden
believes that the object of Russia in her
recent demonstrations against the lnteg-
rity to territory of Afghanistan was to
concentrate the attention of Great Britain
by directly menacing her Indian interests
in order that she '(Russia) might have
freer scope for her operations in the direc-
ton of the possessions of Turkey.
Mr.. Phelps, the new American minis
ter's reception by the Prince of Wales yes
terdny was of very cordial nature, the
Prince OBTAINING Mr.. Phelps for an hour
in a long, familiar conversation. To-day
Mr.. Phelps will be received by the Duke
of Edinburgh and the Duke of Cambridge.
His reception everywhere is specially
friendly, and the warmest opinions are OK
pressed concerning him.

WASHINGTON, June 2.-The commanding
general of the department of Arizona tee-
graphs to the war department that Lieut.

fifty-tive miles northwest of Silver City,
New Mexico, trailing the hostile Indians who
were moving in the Black range towards
Fort Bayard near which place they would
probably pass on the 2Sth ulto.
Gen. Crook has asked and received au-
thority from Gen. Pope to go to Fert Bayard,
where he can best direct the movements of
his own troops along the western line of
New Mexico. Gen. Pope has authorized him
to go to whatever point he can be of most
service in operating against the hostile In
dians.
The following dispatch, dated Mescalero,
N. M, June /, was received at the Indian
office from the agent at that place: Hostile
Indians are reported within twenty-five
miles west of here heading this way Three
troops Of cavalry under Maj vanHorr
started to intercept them Forty Mescalero
scouts accompanied the troops at the request
of Maj VanHorn. The Mescalero and
Jickarillas are all quiet and there is no fear
of their joining the hostiles.
