TOO QUICK FOR HIM.
A Cowboy Desperate Killed by a stockman.

SALT LAKE, u. T., October lS.-The partic-
ulars of the shooting of Robert Paxton at
American Falls Idaho, by man named B.
Jackson, the early part of the week, have
just been received. Paxton was desperate
outlaw and cattle-thief, and was at the head
of a gang of thieves that operated between
the Nevada line and the head of Snake River,
which gang of thieves is supposed to be in
league with the Teton Basin outlaws. These
desperadoes have drivenu off horses and
horned stock of every description, and lat
terly they have engaged in the business of
iassoing calves on either side of Raft River
and taking them in boats TO the other side
and branding them with their own brands.
This thieving practice has aroused the
cattlemen to determined action to put a
stop to the illegal business. Paxton met
Jackson and mlstook him for a detective
and accused him of working up cases against
him, and further stated to Jackson that he
had been hunting him for twelve days TO kill
him. whereupon both men made passes for
their guns. and Jackson being the quicker
shot his victim in the eye, instantly killing
him. Jackson is spoken of as a good citizen
and reliable stockman. lie was fully exon
era'ed by the Coroner's jury, and was also
the recipient of congratulations from all
sources in having thus defended himself

THE CHEROKEES.
4 Bitter Fight to he Made Against Chief
Bushyhead.

LITTLE Rock, October 19.-Intelligence
from the Indian Territory is to the effect
that the Cherokees are considerably stirred
up concerning the hisapprehension made in
the sale of certain lands TO the United States
Government for 100000. The purchase
money was paid some time ago and divided
pro rata among the Cherokees only. The
lands sold were supposed TO be those con-
veyed some time ago for the use of divers
Indian tribes, but it appears that the sale
covered what is known as the Cherokee strip,
embracing a tract of several million acres.
Another subject of discussion is the lease of
millions of acres 10 cattle syndicates. The
Cherokee strip itself is embraced in these
lands. Chief Bushyhead is reported as having
said TO Secretary Lamar that the Cherokees
are well satisfied with the leases and want
the cattle to remain. This statement is de-
MED by the Cherokees. As a matter of fact,
the leases have been q source OF trouble from
the outset. bitter fight is being made
against Chief Bushyhead and his adminiStra-
ton, and il is expected TO break out against
him in the Legislature, which meets in No
vember, with great violence. OF the seventy
four members, Senators and Representatives,
which comprise the council, a majority is
put down as anti-Bushyhead, and ii is ex-
pected that his official acts which in any way
effect the general welfare will be closely in
vestigated. lie was chosen principal chief

istration has been of a progressive character.

MYSTERIOUS MR.. WARNER.
He Surrenders Himself to n United States
Commissioner.

NEW IoRk. October 1.-THE mysterious William
S. Warner, who secured the most of the funds Of
the bankrupt firm of Grant q Ward surrendered
himself TO United States Commissioner shields
this morning, saying that he understood there
was warrant issued for him. 4 Deputy Marshal
watched his house last night, but was unsuccess
full in finding him. 1t is generally understood
that for weeks past Receiver Johnston, OF the
Marine Bank, had been investigating the
dealings of Ward with the bank, and he
brings the present suit 10 recover money which
he claims to be due To the bank, and which War
ner is said to have legally obtained. Warner AS
serts that he had no dealings with the Marine
Bank except to draw the money upon checks
paid him, and that he never had any dealings
with the firm of Grant d Ward except to buy It's
obligations over the counter. Warner brought
bondsmen TO court with him and will give bail in
any amount that may he desired. The eXamina
ton was set down for Thursday next and bail was
fixed Al 5000. Mr.. Warmers counsel produced
two suretieS. who justified in twice that amount.
They are T. Bates Musgrove banker OF this city.

A Horrible Murder,

SIoUy CITY, Ia, October lG.-A most hor-
rble murder occurred in West Fork Town
ship last evening. James and John johnson,
brothers, lived together on q farm. John
was married, and James single maa about
twenty-eight years old. Yesterday they
had house raising, after which keg of
beer was tapped.fi The two brothers quar-
relied and James was ordered from the
house. lie went ont on the prairie.and re-
mained till about II O'clock. lie then re-
turned to the house and found his brother
John asleep in bed. Taking an old army
rifle, he loaded it, placed the muZzle
to Johns head, and blew his brains out.
He then loaded the gun again and fred
another charge at the head of his lifeless
brother, scattering brains and blood over the
bed and walls of the room. The murderer
remained at the house two hours. and then
informed the neighbors that his brother was
dead. He was Immediately placed under
arrest, and subsequently made confession
of his crime. On the way To this city with
an officer, they met a wagon with coffin
for the dead man, and Johnson, being told
he would never see his brother again, re-
piled: t'Nes, / will; 1 will meet him i'm
hell" The wife of the murdered man stood
by and saw the crime, agreeing that ii was
the proper thing to do. She has not been
arrested.

MADDENED TURKEY.
The Sick Man ExaSperated at the Dillydallying
Of the Great Powers.
King Milan Rufuses to Receive an EnvO,
From BuIgaria-Prince Alexander Will
Defer Entirely tn the Advice of
Russia and Austria.

LONDON, October I9.-The latest phase Of
the Eastern question shows that Turkey is
maddened by the vague assurances and the
absolute inaction of the Powers in re-
gard TO the threatened dismemberment of
her European possessions. Diplomatic con-
ferences are dishonesty and disingeniousv
prolonged; pacific notes are dribbled upon
the Porte from Austria and Russia: every
foreign diplomatic in Constantinople is, or
pretends TO be, awaiting more specific in
structions from his Government. and in the
meantime the subjects OF the Sultan are
arming themselves against him in every di-
rection.
The war preparations in Bulgaria and Ser
via are enough in themselves to disturb the
Turkish statesmen, but a painful sting is
added by the fact that the sinews of war are
furnished by Russia to Bulgaria and 10y
Austria to Servia. The farcical marches and
countermarches OF troops on the Bulgarian
frontier would command little attention at
Constantinople if it were not known that
they are directed from Vienna and ST. Pc
tersburg.
VIENNA, October l9.-The situation in the
East has again assumed serious aspect,
owing to the bellicosc attitude of Servia.
Prince Alexander, after endeavoring to patch
up an agreement with King Milan, tele-
graped TO the latter that he intended send
ing Minister Grekoff To the Servian Court on
4 special mission. 1t is evident from King
Milan's answer that Servia is determined to
fight for territorial ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.

Cabinet has resolved to demand OF the Pow
ers more active assistance to enforce the Ber-
lin treaty.

AN ADVENTURER.
How a Bogus Count swIndIed Adelina Patti.

NEW YORK, October lS.-0ne of the asSer-
tions in the accounts of the bogus Count
ZacharoflTs elopement with Miss Billings, a
New York heiresS, was that he had Senti-
mentally impressed Adelina Patti, the prima
donna. In view of PATHS age and expert
ence it was considered by her acquaintances
here impossible that she should have been a
love-dupe of the adventurer, despite his
good looks and winsOme ways. Inyestiga-
ton establishes the fact that he entertained
her at several fine dinners i'm this city at the
time of her last winters season at the Acad-
envy of Music. and that he subsequently ac-
companied her across the continent. But
her husband was present at the elaborate
meals, so the Hotel Rossmorc folks say, and
from the attaches of the parlOr car in
which she journeyed it is learned that he
was with her constantly during the trip,
along with the reputed suitor. The expla-
nation is that Zacharoff pretended to be a
Journalist as well as nobleman, and he con-
vinced Patti that he could Write and publish
a vast amount of laudatOry matter concern
ing her. He was 50 plausible and captivating,
his forged letters from eminent editors were
so hearty, and his lying was altogether so
artistic, that the thoroughly business-like
Patti was fooled. She paid him salary of
500 week and met all his luxurious travel
ing expenses for a month before finding ont
that he had no facilities whatever for boom
ing her in tie press. She was greatly cha
grined by this, not alone through shame at
having been defrauded, but because she feared
that the newspapers might get prejudice
against her. She would not seek his pun
ishment as n swindler, and she concealed the
whole thing as far as possible. The affair
had no love in il.

ybe Pacific N,i, >ubiccr.

BosToE, October I9.-The story comes
from New York to-day that the Transcon-
tinental Transportation Company sent a
notice to the Pacific Mail Company that st
the expiration of thirty-days its monthly
subsidy payments will be stopped. Presi-
dent Adams, Of ;he Union Pacific Railroad,
said that he had no information concerning
it. but intended to make inquiries about IL.
He presumed, however that il was true.
The policy OF the Southern Pacific Road on
the TranScOntinental business had, he
thought, been very arbitrary aud he was
disposed to condemn in the strongest man
ner possible, their recent action in refusing
to honor the draft sent to them. The Union
Pacific was not at all soiicitiouS about the
TTanscOntinentnl business, and could do
without it much better than the Southern
Pacific could. The course of the Southern
Pacific. which indicated desire To have
things all its own way justified every line IN
Withdrawing from the association. Con-
cerning his visit to Washington, Mr.. Adams
said he talked the whole Pacific Mail subject
over with the United States Railroad Com
missioner and Assistant Secretary Jencks.
Both gentlemen understood the question
thoroughly. and the latter denied that he IN
tended 10 pursue the course attributed To
him by some of the newspapers.

OFFICIAL COUNT IN OHIO.
Two or Three Days VIII he Require to- Com
plete the Work in Cincinnati.

CINCINNATI, October 19.-The official count
of votes cast in Hamilton County at last
Tuesdays election began to-day, RepubH-
can and Democratic candidates are repre-
sented by counsel. Returns from thirteen
precincts were missing and a mandamus
was issued in each case for their production.
1t may require two or three days to com
plete the work.
The case of Colonel Hudson, Chief of Po-
lice, for dereiction OF duty in not arresting
men charged with violation of the registry
law, was continued until next Monday at
the request OF the State. The cases of others
charged with violation OF the registry law
were continued to enable their attorneys to
argue demunerS which are based on the un-
constitutionality of the Iaw-the point b9-
ing that it applies only to Cincinnati and
Cleveland.
While Precinct ii, First Ward, was being
called, DIR. Thompson, of the Eighteenth, Il,
came in with Charles Reagen, both Judges
of Election. They brought the missing tally
sheets wrapped up in a paper, which they
delivered to County Clerk Dalton in that
shape, instead of sealed, as the law requires

not get in. So 1 refused TO sign."
Mr. Dalton took the sheets, at the same
time remarkng that they should have
been sealed and sent to the City Clerk. The
opinion Of the county Solicitor was re-
quested i'm the premises. The count was ad-
journed at $50 y. n., after four wards had
been canvassed. The discrepanc les between
the tally sheets and the official count were
of little importance until Precinct A of the
Fourth Ward was reached. The total num-
ber of voters announced rs in the precinct
were 99G, as follows: Hoadley, 026: Foraker,
As; Leonard, %. Ex-County Auditor OBJ
iected that accOrning to the newspapers there
were but some 700 registered in this precinct,
and if this were true, over 800 fraudulent
ballots had been cast. County Clerk Dalton
said that he did not know whether the news
paper statement was correct or not. He had
only to count tho vote as returned, and the
Court was to proceed with. Another objcc-
tiOn was made by a citizen that the returns
were not certified to properly. Mr.. Dalton
advised the Ohjector to make a memorandum
about and take advantage OF il If he could.
