Two Kansas Men Convicted of Murder In
the indian Territory.
FoRr SMITH, Ark, Nov. 2i.-The most
Interesting and sensational murder case
that has been In the Federal court for
years terminated last night In a verdict
OF guilty a. TO Henry W. Miller aud Will
lam Woods, two prominent citizens of
Doniphan County Kan. On the 18th Of
last November Woods left home with an
old schoolmate aud friend named Johnny
Hantz for a long hum In the Indian Terri
tory. They subsequently picked up a
companion In a stranger named Miller,
who went with them. They were gone
three months and were seen in various
parts of the Choctaw and Cherokee Nations.
When Miller and Woods returned home
Hantz was missing and n searching party
afterwards found his body In Verdigris
river face down, with n bullet hole in the
back of his head. His watch was found in
Miller's pocket, The evidence was purely
OF IA circumstantial nature, and the re-
covery of the body was due mainly to the
devotion OF a pointer dog belong ng to the
murdered man. The dog refused to leave
the place Of it's masters murder, and
bayed continually until too weak to move,
until the body was found. Both Woods
and Miller are respectable citizens Of Kan

BEAUTIFUL TERRORS.


Escape OF the Daring Female Horse Thieves
From JAN.
HUTCHINSON. Kan, Nov. 2t-Reliable
information was received here yesterday
from Syracuse, Kan, announcing the es-
cape from Jail Of the bold and daring fe-
male horse thieves, Ida Weston aud Emma
Muntry. These beautiful women were in
the past the terror Of the frontier. At the
time Of their capture, some weeks since,
many wild tories were told Of their adj
ventures. One account was that they had
stolen almost n score OF horses aud in
their raids had many times escaped pur-
suers who were well armed with Winches-
tiers. That some one has become a victim to
their charms is settled beyond a doubt.
The keys to the Jail were locked IN a safe
place in the Opera Hotel, and must nave
been purloined by one familiar with the
house.
After the birds were released the Jail
door was locked and the keys returned 10
their hanging place. No clew to the
whereabouts of the thieves has been dis
covered nor is any one under suspicion as
their assistant. The sheriff was absent
from home at the time attending TO private
business.
These girls are cultured, refined and
beautiful. They have never been heard to
utter one word Of complaint at the trent
meut received while incarcerated in the
rather small frontier Jail, nor did they ex-
press any regret at their actions. For
some days past one of them has adopted
the popular expression, eve are all
right" The country will he secured in all
directions and every nook aud corner will
be watched to capture these women, whose
only fault seems q mania for stealing hor-

FoRT WORTH, Tex, Nov. 22.-The no.
tori US Captain T.. +. Bunch. the man who
robbed the Queen aud Crescent near New
Orleans. is wanted badly In Fort Worth
by a number Of men who hold worthless
notes made by Bunch, ~aggrogating so far
over 1000. The first intimation of this
was secured from n suit filed in
the district court by j.. c. Har-
rison, n banker, against W. z. Gallo
way, J. T.. Hayes, a. s. Gates and T.. f.
Bunch, on n vendors. lien note for $500.
The note purported to have been made by
A. S. Gates, payable to Bunch on landpur-
chased Bunch sold the note to Galloway
and Harper and they discounted it TO
Harrison. II was not paid when due, SO
Harrison sued. Investigation by Galloway
and Harper shows hat Gates bought no
land and made no note. He is supposed
to live in Denton County. The note Is u
forgery. Colonel o.. Brewster. n capital
list, holds a similar note for $3.50, bought
from Bunch. Two other notes, one for
5000 and the other for S4S5, are held by j.
G. Luning. All are of the same charac-
ter 1t is said that another capitalist
holds seven notes of the same kind and all
are forgeries. Most OF the forgerles were

knights of Labor Adopt "a Motion To Inves-
tigate the General Onicers.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. 2i-An unread
communication from Philadelphia TO the
general assembly Of the knights of Labor,
regarding Barry's charge that district as
sembly "a, of East Saginaw, had been dis
solved to defeat Barry, caused the intro
duction and adoption OF a motion for the
appointment of a committee to investi-
gate the methods Of the general officers.
This action was taken after a good deal Of
debate and then a still more troublesome
question arose as to who should appoint
the committee. Powderly, being one Of
those who would be investigated. refused
the responsibility. II was suggested that
he appoint one, that another be appointed
by w. I. Lewis, OF the miners assembly,
who Is regarded as Powderly's chief OPP
ponent, and that the third member be Sc
lected by those two, but the suggestion
was not adopted. The remark that Barry
appoint the committee caused some laugh
ter, but was not considered further.

LONDON, Nov. 2l.-In the Parnell Com
mission this morning Mr.. Reid, attorney
for Mr.. Harrington, said that Mr.. Har-
rington did not hoose to adopt the COURSE
ne had advised In the matter of the article
abusing the Commission, which had APP
peared in Harrington paper, the Kerry
Sentinel, therefore he (Reid) vas not in
n position to say any thing.
Presiding Judge Hammer asked Mr.. Har-
rington II he had any thing to say.
Mr.. Harrington replied thnt he had no
statement to make, except that he would
accept the responsibility for what had APP
peared in his paper.
The Judges retired. In ten minutes the
Judges reappeared and Judge Hannen
said he regretted that Mr.. Harrington had
refused to adopt Mr.. Reid's advice. 1t
would be wasting words to indicate how
serious was the contempt of court of which
his paper had been guilty. 1t was neces-
sary that the authority of the court should
be maintained and therefore such things
must be stopped. He then fined Mr.. Har-
rington E500.
