THE KANSAS WAR.
Reports of the Late War Somewhat
Conflicting.


LIBERAL, Kan, July 27.-J. Gerard,
Deputy Sheriff of Stevens county, gives
the following account of the riot near
Huroton: A warrant has been issued
to Short, Constable and City Marshal of
Woodsdale, for the arrest OF Sam Robin
son. Robinson has gone to the
Neutral Strip, and Short and two
others went after him. Sheriff Cross,
hearing that Short and his posse had
been coralled in the strip, started with
with four men to the relief, but could
not find them, and started up the trail
and went into camp. While asleep the
Huyoton party surprised and disarmed
them. and made them stand up in
line and shot them, killing four and
wounding one. The four supposed killed
were Sheriff Cross, R. Hubbard, @. W..
Eaton and R. Wilcox. H. Tony was
) wounded.
The latest report is that seven men
were killed.. So far reports are very con-
tradictory, but no doubt the Stevens
county people are in terrible state OF
excitement and more shooting is ex-
pected.
GARDEN Cry, Kan, July 27.-Two
vounp men arrived here this evening
from Stevens county, who claim to have
seen a part of the fight between the
Sheriff's posse and Hugoton men. They
scout the idea of wholesale killing, how

killed, although some may be seriously
wounded.
