THAT BLOODY FEUD.
The Governor of Kentucky Appealed TO for
a Military Force-The Outlaws Must
be Exterminated-A Plan for
Campuigu


LOUISVILLE, August 24-Judge Robert
Boyd, of the Fifteenth Judicial District, in
which Harlan county is situated, came here
to-day to request Foyernor Buckner to send
troops to arrest Wilson Howard, leader of
the band Of outlaws that killed four citizens
last Tuesday. Judge Boyd spoke in sub
stance as follows:
think that troops are necessary to capture
the outlaws and their presence be essential at
the criminal court in order that the law might
be enforced. 1t is my plan to station officers at
all the principal outlets of Harlan county and
let them intercept all attempts tn escape from
the county. Then let the troups raid their
businesses and either capture or drive them in
to the hands of those who guard the roads
and other outlets. If Wilson Howard and
Bill Jennings could be taken the trouble
would end. But they are related to about one
fourth of the Harlan county inhabitants and
have a large number of active supporters. Con-
sequently it would be a hardmatter to capture
them without military support. Howard and
Jennings offered to surrenderfo me and sent
Harry Eversole to negotiate the conditions.
They sent word they would surrender If they
were assured bail would be allowed them, but
|, of course, demanded an unconditional sur
render.
think the best thing to be done in case of
capture would be to turn them over to the
They are both wanted in that State for two or
three murders. They murdered a deaf mute
in cold blood, and, / think, killed one or two
persons afterward. Marshal Hunter came
near capturing Howard some time since out in
Rock Castle county. Howard, however, was
warned before Captain Hunter reached the
house. and made good his escape on n very
swift horse. There are several rewards offered
for their capture, but nothing like such large
sum as has been reported will continue TO
hold court as usual,

agreed to do, but don't think she got the
letter. Her father heard that had written
her, however, and sent her away for time.
She came back last year and called on me.
She spoke Indignantly of Ernest's being in
the penitentiary, and wanted me to write
MIN of how much she thought of him, and
how much she should help him when he got
out. She said that she herself had been
practically in prison during her two years
of absence.
''Some time last year an attorney was rec
commended to me by a woman as a man who
could not be bought of. went to him, and
he said that he could assist me. He asked
me if had any letters as proofs. 1 told him
l had, and mentioned those from the young
lady. He said those were just what he
wanted; that he had made the millionaire
settle for two scrapes he had gotten into
one on Wabash avenue, and the other on
Washington boulevard, and that by show
ing the letters to him, the father would inn
mediately get Ernest pardoned out. gave
him the letters, and that was the last saw
of them"

A New Form of Bids Prepared for Build

A New Form of Bids Prepared for Build
ing the Cruisers.
WASHINGTON, August 24-Advertise-
ments were re-issued to-day from the Navy
Department for bids for the construction OF
the three 1000 ton cruisers for which ex-
cesive proposals were opened on Thursday.
The new advertisements are the same as the
old with certain important differences that
are expected to induce contractors to offer
bids that will fall within the appropriation.
The department makes several concessions
to this end. In the first place six months
more time is given, making the contract
period two and one-half years. The maxi
mum speed to be obtained is fixed at II
knots instead of 18. and the premium rate
is altered.
There will be premium of S25, 900 for
each quarter knot over the maximum and a
similar deduction for each quarter knot be-
low instead of $40, 900 for the first quarter
knot, $4,000 for the second, $50, 900 for
third. and SAC, 900 for fourth and all above.
The minimum speed below which vessels
will be rejected, is to 16 knots instead of
161I. The bids will be opened October &c.
No action has yet been taken in the case of
the two 8, 900 ton vessels, but re-advertise-
ment will probably be issued for them.

Victoria to-day is perfectly kittenish.
She has for hours disported herself on the
lawn, sending Welsh sheep dogs to find lost
sheep, and these carefully trained animals
invariably found and-drov the feecy ones
over hedges and bitches. until they stood
frightened and baaing at the Queens feet.
The tithes question, however, is still agitat-
ing all Wales.
The parsons have rounded on the Govern
ment for having failed to put their bill
through and, when your friends turn upon
you, it is indeed bitter, and the dissenters
are incensed because disestablishment in
Wales is not yet an established fact, so much
so, indeed, that at meeting OF Congrega-
