ARRESTED AT MoDEsro.-Richard Woods
a few days ago swore out a warrant accus-

Using to pay at a certain time, but failing to
do so, and afterwards being equally un-
mindful of other promises to liquidate his

OUR LANDER LETTER.

Special Correspondence OF THE LEADER.
The Large Brothers, heavy Pennsyl-
vania capitalists, have Just finished an
eight mile ditch in the Beaver valley,
twenty-five miles south of this point,
covering 5000 acres of bottom lands.
These lands are now being fenced and
will be planted in alfalfa throughout.
Next season oats will be added. The
ditch cost some 81, 200. 1t will probably
be extended next year. The proprietors
intend to raise oats and alfalfa in heavy
amounts.
County surveyor Frank Wood left Lam
der this morning for the vall'y of the
Grey Bull in the Big Horn country,
where he has contracts for bitches cover
ing 10000 acres.
Emigration is pouring into the Big
Horn country. A section which last tall
polled only sixty votes, will give 300 this
fall.
Trouble is evidently brewing on the
Shoshone Indian reservation. The mill
tary at Fort Washable has been ordered
to enforce the removal of all white men
and their stock from Indian lands. There
will be little trouble in the removal. but
1t will require a constant chasing of cattle
to keep them off. and this will breed bad
blood. and bad blood will make serious
trouble
The body of John s. Harris, found
hanging in his own brewery here on the
morning of the llth, was buried Monday.
What at first appeared as a suicide, now
looks like a foul and cunningly planned
murder. In support of this view Of the
case the following facts and deductions
are advanced; On the afternoon Of the
10th inst. MIR. Harris entered his place of
business and saying he was in need Of S2U
took that amount from the cash drawer
and went out again. From that time
until he was found the following morning
at 5 O'Clock, suspended in the brewery, no
one can be- found who knows anything Of
his movements. When the COZ ps, was
discovered it had already begun 10 decay,
a very singular circumstance, for the
brewery was open until midnight and the
bar full of customers. The feet aud the
| IS as high as the knees were wet and
solled as though they had been violently
dragged through mud and water. aud the
rope s%uspendlng the body was in the same
condition. The pockets of the clothing
had been completely ransacked-not even
Il note book or pencil was left. This last
Is still another very singular circumstance,
as MIR. Harris daily delivered beer to his
various patrons in the town. al d always
had with him corresponding accounts and
memoranda. 1t is claimed that Mr..
Harris was murdered sometime during the
afternoon or evening of the 10th; that he
was .strangled to death and his body hung
up In the brewery during the early morn
ing of the llth to give the appearance of
suicide. A thorough investigation will be
had. 1t seems beyond doubt that Mr..
Harris was prosperous in his business and
happy in his domestic relations.
