Democratic Officials Purchase Convict-Made

ate. He pulled back the hypocritical veil from
the face of some OF the inside workings of the
administration, and showed that, under Indian
Commissioners Atkins, contracts were given for
hundreds and hundreds OF road and farm
wagons TO Cherry, Marrow & Co. for four hun
dred OF their wagons, made by ponitentiary con-
victs. aud intended for and used in the Indian
Territory. There were subsequently other large
orders given by government officers for these

WILKEsBAIRE, Pa, Oct. l9-The names of
the men murdered near Miners Mills early this
morning, are j. B Mcclure. aged twenty.four,
paymaster Of railroad contractor McFaddsn,
and Hugh Flanagan, aged forty-fve. Seven
thousand dollars in government bonds have
been found in Flanagsus clothes. The theory
of the murder seoms to be that Mcclure and
Flanagan were coming up the hill in a buggy
when they were fired upon from behind q tree,
which was protected by brush. Flanagan
was instantly killed and fell out OF the
buggy. Mcclure was only wounded, aud urged
his horse on faster. Two more shots were fred,
both entering McClure's back. aud a. he fell
from the buggy one of his feet caught in the
cross-bars, and he was dragged
along quarter of mile.
The upp.r portion OF his skull WAS blown
off. and it is thought that he was olive when
the rnurderers caught ND with him, and one of
them fired close to his head. The murderer
took a eatchel from the buggy con-
tanning $4,000. The detectives have
arrested half dozen drunken
Italians on suspicion tonight, but il is thought
they have not yet arrested the guilty party. A
posse 1000 strong will scour the mountains to-
morrow. The woodland where tho tragedy took
place.covers OF seventy miles, reaching e
to the Delaware river.
