Fort SMITH, Ark, June 27.-James
Arcine and William Psrchmeal, two full
blooded Cherokee Indians, we're hanged
at Q o'clock this afternoon for the murder
Of Henry Fiegel, an old Swede. IS years
ago. AT the trial both denied their guilt
and endeavored to saddle the crime on
each other. They were represented by
different counsel. Arcine denied having
known of the killing. Parchmeal admit
ted Of being present, but said that he was
there under duress. and Arcine did the
killing. Arcine made a statement yester-
day. denying the killing but duplicating
another man. To-day when death drew
near he made q full confession. He said
he was only a boy then, ten or twelve
| years of age, and was in q house at Tale
quah, Cherokee Nation, with some other
Cherokees, playing cards. Parchmeal came
there and wanted him to go with him. They
| went through the prairie half a mile,
! and then took to the road. They saw a
man coming. Parehmeal gave him a pis-
| tol and said: "That is the man; shoot
| him." He shot him six times, then both
| took a rock and mashed the mans head
and dragged the man off the road. Parch-
| meal took the mans boots and Is cents,
| which he had in his pocket. That man
| was Fiegel. He did not know why Parcb-
meal wanted Fiegel killed. and being only
a boy at the time he did not know it was
wrong. Parchmeal admitted his guilt in a
few words through an interpreter, and
said he was ready to die. Both men died
without a struggle, and swelled the num-
| Der who have been executed here during
the last IL years for crimes committed in
Indian Territory to &c.

New Mexico Seeks Admission.
WASHINGTON. June 27.-The movement
for the admission of New Mexico as q State
is already under way. Congress will be
asked at the coming session to elect the
necessary legislation. Colonel Pritchard,
late United States District Attorney, in
speaking Of the merits of the scheme, said:
New Mexico is, / believe. the oldest or
ganized Territory we nov have. It has a
population OF 160. 900, and the welfare of
its people would be improved by admis-
sion." On the other hand Republicans
say that before any Democratic Territory
is admitted q majority in the House must
listen to the claims Of Dakota, and until
justice is accorded to this Territory they
will never listen to the demands Of New
Mexico.
The Appointment of Heddens.
New YORK, June 24.-The feeling among
Tammany men on the Presidents Custom
House appointments is decidedly bitter.
Coroner Martin, one of the leaders OF the
organization. said. when asked how he
liked the men: 1.-THE President has made
q gross blunder. This man Hedden has
never done anything for the Democracy,
and in appointing him the President has
the Democrats. They all feel about
that way, though some pretend indifference,
and say that they never heard OF Hedden
and do not know anything about him >"
Hall people are less disturbed, but
several OF them are faint in their praise in |
expressing their feeling of tho course. The
Democracy men are juhilant.
