The Deadwood Regfstership.

Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-Quite little
race is going on for the registership of the
Deadwood land Office. Register Luce. who
is an Indiana man. living formerly in La
fayette, l believe, has rendered his resigna-
ton, to take effect upon the appointment
and qualification of his successor. Senator
VOORHEES,. of Indiana. has asked Mr.. La
mar to appoint Thomas Hanlon. his brother
in-law. Hanlon was appointed collector of
internal revenue for one of the Indiana dis
tricts, but failed to secure confirmation.
The president, it is said, would, under no
circumstances. listen to his nomination for
any other Office. but the Tall Sycamore of
the Wabash moves in mysterious ways his
wonders to perform and may possibly cir
cumvent the presidents opposition. Mr..
Lamar is inclined to appoint HanlOn, and
will do so if he can. c. c. Frost, of Da-
kota. Is a candidate for this place, and has
been in Washington for several months
working up his candidacy.

Tom Kennard, but did not shoot A few
moments after Kennard. meeting Cunning

shooter. This aroused Cunningham's
Cherokee blood. and, getting Deck Vaan,
his brother-in-law, the two determined on
revenge. About 6 O'clock they met
Capt. SixkiIler. and, without word,
riddled him with bullets, killing him in
stantIy. SiXkiller was shot through the
heart, face and arm. The murderers then
left the town. Capt Sixkiller was prob
ably one OF the bravest of men and was an
officer attempting to make arrests. He is
reported to have killed seven men. one of
them being the notorious Dick Glass.
Writs for the arrest of Cunningham and
Vaan have been issued and placed in the
hands of the deputy United States marshal,
and he has started for the home of the
murderers. AS they both are desperate
they will probably be killed or kill the
marshal before they are captured

some reason to execute his threats. That
reason is not to be found in any fear of re-
sistance on the part of the Bnlgarians alone,
for it would be not much more than a holt
day parade for his troops to march through
Bulgaria and occupy and hold its cities and
towns. 1t is not any opposition that Bulga-
ria can offer that makes him hesitate. War
with that little principally would be meIe
pastime. But war with Austria is very
different thing, especially with the prospect
that his adversary would have the moral, if
not the active, support of England and per-
haps of Germany. Herr Tisza's words are
ringing in his ears as well as in the ears of
the Bulgarian regents, and while they in-
spire the latter with courage and hope, their
effect on him is to produce timidity and hest
tation. A war once begun between Russia
and Austria nobody can predict when it will

Most of the deaths in the terrible accident
at Rio, Wisconsin, were caused by the cars
taking fire Immediately after the collision.
Had fire not broken out no doubt the lives of
large part Of those who persisted would
have been saved And this fact draws at
tention again to the dangers of our present
method Of heating railroad cars. A great
many appliances that cenduce to the safety
of railroad trains have been invented, par
ticuiarly notable among which are the air
brake and the Miller platform, but prog
ress in the art Of heating and lighting the
cars has been triiing For the most part
they are heated by stoves placed in one cor
ner and lighted by oil lamps suspended from
t, the ceiling or fixed in brackets at the sides.
When the car sustains severe shock the
stove and the lamps are wrenched from their
fastenings and live Goals are scattered upon
the wood work, which has been made by paint
and yarnish as inflammable as finder. The
nearest possible approach to absolute safety
will never have been arrived at until radically
different methods of heating and illumin-
ating are introduced.

RUSSIA AND BULGARIA.

The Bulgarian Sobranje has met, Russian
war vessels are gathered at Varna, and Gen.
Kaulbars has issued an ultimatum to the
Bulgarian government. These three facts
are fraught with deep significance. They in
dictate that the Bulgarians are still inclined
to resent the interference of Russia, and
they certainly seem to show also that Russia
is preparing to resort to force if the bribery
and intrigue which her agents have been en-
ploying do not produce the desired result.
Resistance to power with the immense re-
sources Of Russia is a bold proceeding on
the part OF little principality like Bulgaria,
and it is almost inconeeiyable that it would
have been agreed upon with such unanimity
by the government, and persisted in with SO
much vigor unless Bulgaria had received as
surance that if worst came to worst she
should not be left to fight the battle single
handed. Where that assistance is to come
from IL might be hard to guess, had not the
Hungarian prime minister thrown light on
the subject when he declared some time ago
that Austria would not consent to the Occur
patton OF Bulgaria by the Car alone This
bold and explicit declaration of Tisza was
undoubtedly accepted by the Bulgarian re-
gents as tantamount to a promise of
aid if Russia undertook to invade their
country, and the independence and pluck,
which they are manifesting to-day undoubt-
eddy had birth in that declaration. Bulgaria
no doubt expects that the landing of a Rus
sian force at Varna will be the signal for the
moving Of the Austrian troops.
And while this expectation probably ac-
counts for the boldness of Bulgaria it also
explains the hesitation of Russia. It is ap-
parent enough that the Car is trying to
stave off a resort to force. He is threatening
its employment and to make his threats
more effective has assembled his war vessels
at Varna, where the Bulgarians can see
them. But he is evidently very reluctant for

spring fairly reflected public sentiment, their
appeal is not likely to be in vain. Wepre-
