DENVER, October 16.-The following

DALLAS, Col, October 13
To Governor Job A. Cooper, Denver:
The Southern Ute Indians are wantonly kill
ing vast numbers Of deer, for hides alone, on
the West Dolores. They are far from their
reservation, and serious trouble will result if
some immediate action is not taken. Can
you do anything through the Indian Agent at

DENVER, COL. October Il.
To Hon. Benjamin Harrison, President Of the
United States Washington, ID. c.:
/ am reliably informed that the Southern Ute
Indians are far from their reservation on the
West Dolores, in Southern Colorado and are
wantonly killing vast numbers of deer for their
hides alone, contrary to the laws of Colorado,
and that if immediate action is not taken to
correct this fears are entertained of serious
trouble resulting therefrom. l urge that
immediate action be taken through the
agent of the Southern Utes, or the troops at
Fort Lewis, if it be necessary, to see that these
Indians are returned to their reservation and
the depredations stopped.

A MURDERER DIES.
Providence Loses Confidence in n South
Carolina Jury's Justice.


Carolina Jury's Justice.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcHI
CHARLESTON, S. c., October 16.-Death
to-day ended one of the most interesting
murder cases, outside of the Mellow trial
for the murder of F. W. Dawson, that has
ever been presented to the courts in this
State. 1t has been said by some that Provi-
dence has lost confidence in the average
South Carolina jury. John T. Lyon, of
Abbeville county, who brutally slew D. L.
Mabrey, died in Jail. The court which was
to try him was in session, but his lawyers
had already obtained continuance of the
case. Had he lived it is very probable that
he would have escaped, as most murderers
do in this State.
The crime occurred last May. The MUIR
derer is native of the State and was about
62 years old. Like good many South
Carolina murderers he is respectfully con-
nected. His victim was also native Caro-
linian and respectfully connected. He was
only 26 years old. The murderer was the
stepfather of the wife of his victim. On the
morning of the murder Mabrey had to pass
Lyons place of business. When nearly in
front of the town academy Lyon emerged
from the building, or arose from near it,
advanced a few stepstoward Mabrey's route,
cooked his gun, and covering Mabrey with
it, asked him if he wanted to fight. Mabrey
said nothing. Lyon drew his gun down on
him. Mabrey said he was a coward if he
shot. Lyon shot, Mabrey staggered and
fell, asking Lyon not to shoot again as he
was dead. Lyon shot him again and hold
ing his gnn down passed near the dying
man and entered residence near by. Later
he went to the wife of his victim to break
the news OF her husbands death to her.
Both sides were represented by able coun.
sci and long legal fight was anticipated.
The interposition of Providence has proba-
bly, saved several thousand dollars in the
county of AbbevIlle. The mystery Of the
motive of the crime will probably never be
revealed

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE D1sPArcH.l
RICHMOND, Va, October 16.-Mahone is
in towering rage tonight, and even the
Hon. Julius Caesar Burrows exhibited some
temper. The couple undertook to speak to-
day at Hanover Court House. Malone
said his say, but soon after Mr.. Burrows
began a lively bear was seen to climb a
large tree nearby and turn somersaults and
otherwise disport himself.
The result was that the crowd gufawed
and yelled at the bear. Then the bear got
down from the tree and Mr.. Burrows resumed,
whereupon the bear went aloft again, and,
as Mr.. Burrows reached an eloquent climax
the animal danced jig on the top end of
the limb, and the telling words of the orator
were lost in the yells of the crowd at the
bear, whose movements were directed by
Turk. In little while Burrows lost his
audience, for at each attempt at new point
on the tariff the bear performed new trick.
The bear director was seen in company
of Dem ocrats before and alter the meeting,
and seemed to be enjoying the honors won
by his pet. A Democratic orator went to
the Court House and said that as choice
between sleeping with Malone and the
bear, he would rather sleep with the bear.

THE CHAMPIONS MATCHED.
Jordan and Ford Agree to Throw Weights
for the Champ:onsiip,


New YORK, October l6-Quite a party of
athletes met yesterday at l p. M in the office of
W. II. Robertson, 296 Broadway, to see the final
arrangements made IN regard to the weight
throwing contest between A. A. Jordan of the
New York Athletic Club and Malcolm w,
Ford, of the Staten Island Athletic Club.
These two athletes took second and first re-
spectively in the recent general athletic cham
pionship, and after some discussion as to their
relative merits in single-handed contest at the
regular general athletic programme, they have
decided to settle their differences in single
handed match at the three weight-throwing
events OF that programme. Ford is considered
to have too much of an advantage over Jordan
in running and jumping, but IN weight-throw-
ing they are very even. A great many think
Jordan will win the hammer and Ford the shot
SO it resolves itself into question of throwing
the 56-pound weight.
This is very heavy game, and no man can
possibly hold his own against all corners at it
unless be is very heavy and strong. The three
best men which this country has ever had at
the game are ]. s. Mitchell, e. A. j. Queck-
berner and w. L. Condor: they average about
30 pounds in weight apiece and have records
az the game in the neighborhood of % feet.
Mitchell has the worlds record 30 feet inch
Jordan and Ford will average about 15S pounds
Jordan being two or three pounds under and
Ford a corresponding number over Twenty
feet for men OF this weight would be called an
excellent throw, for the average man cannot
send the missile over l3 or IA feet
Among those who were present Yesterday at
tine signing of the articles were w. h Robert
son, L. Levien, Robert Stoll. Sam Toch, T. ].
Lee, w. II. Roberts, S. Cornell and William

THE WORLDS CHAMPIONSHIP.
The BroOklyus and New Yorks Will Play
Eleven Games.

Eleven Games.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcHI
NEwYoRK, October l6-The worlds cham
pionship series of 1889 has been arranged and
the first game will be played tomorrow. With
the exception of securing umpires. all the de-
tails have been settled. President John b. Day
and Manager Mutrie for the New Yorks and
President Byrne and Director Able for the
Brooklyns met at the office of the Sporting
Times this afternoon and agreed upon series
for the worlds championship between their re-
spective clubs. The meeting was q most
harmonious one and although it took several
hours TO arrange matters satisfactorily TO Doth
sides, there was not hitch of any kind.
President Day was in favor of games for the
series, while Mr.. Byrne wanted II. Mr.. Day also
wanted it arranged that the series should come
TO an end as soon as the deciding game had
been played. After some little talk, in which
all hands took part 1t was decided that the
series should consist of eleven games, and that
1t should end as soon as one Of the clubs shall
win its sixth victory
The number of games having been fixed, the
next question was as to dates. Mr.. Day
thought that the sooner the games were begun
the better. and he at once suggested that the
hrst game be played tomorrow. This was
promptly agreed to. The following schedule
was then adopted:
Friday, October ls-Polo Grounds
Saturday, October l9-Wash.ngton Park.
Monday, October 2l-Polo Grounds.
Tuesday, october 22-Washington Park.
Wednesday, October 23-Polo Grounds.
Thursday, October 24-Washington Park.
Friday, October 25-Polo Grounds.
saturday. October 26-Washington Park.
Monday, October 2S-POlo Grounds.
Tuesday. October 29-Washington Park.
wednesday, October 30-Polo Grounds
By the above schedule it will be seen that the
clubs have apportioned the games as well as
it could be done. In case rain should prevent
any of the games, the postponed game will be
played on the next day at the same grounds.
This of course will change the schedule. but
not enough to make any serious difference.
Another meeting will be held to-day to select
umpires and agree upon a division of the gate
reeeipts

A POSSIBLE CASE.
Using Uncle Sam to Get Cheap Gloves on
Hand at Makers Expense.


ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE p1sPATcHI
NEW YORK. October 16-Suit has been
begun in the Supreme Court in this city by
Bruno Uhle and Alex. Won Wagner, manu-
facturers of gloves and hosiery at Chemnitz,
Saxony, against Burnham, Hanna, Munger
& Co., one of the largest drygoods houses in
the West, with stores at Kansas City and
Detroit and branch at "a Thomas street in
this city, for $4,000 for goods alleged to
have been purchased by the defendants and
never paid for, and for $4,000 more for
damages consequent upon the refusal of the
defendants to accept other goods manufact-
ured for them.
The whole matter involves. according to
the story of Charles Putzel, who represents
the plaintiffs in the suit in this city a con-
spiracy between Burnham, Hanna, Munger
& Co. and one Jules Arbit, of Kansas City,
to obtain manufactured goods at far less
than their value in order to undersell COM
petitors, the loss to fall upon the manufac-
turers.
Arbit appeared in Kansas City, Mr.. Put
eel says, about six months ago, and set up
as manufacturers agent in small Office
in one of the big office buildings there. He
kept no stock and sold entirely by sample.
He wrote to Uhle and Won Wagner, in Ger
many. and wanted authority to act as their
agent. He got some sort of authority, but
Mr.. Putzel says that it was only to sell
goods and not to collect money. That is
question of fact upon which the whole
case will. probably hinge. Burnham
Hanna, Munger & Co. ordered through
him $40, 900 worth of Uhle & Won Wagner's
goods and the firm honored the order, con-
signing the goods, it is said, to Burnham,
Hanna, Munger & Co. and not to Arbit.
The firm had Arbit fix up preliminary in
voice, pending the arrival of the regular
consular invoice from Germany. The regu-
lar invoice came duly to hand and the Gus
toms authorities discovered that the pre-
iminary invoice was round 60 per cent
below the value put on the goods by the
manufacturers. Burnham, Hanna, Munger
& Co. were notified to pay penalty of $500
for this discrepancy, and it is said did SO.
The goods thus secured through Arbit for
60 per cent of, which is said to have put
them 40 per cent below the actual cost of man.
ufacture naturally went off like hot cakes,
and all of Burnham, Hanna, Munger & Co.'S
customers ordered more right away. Order
after order was sent to Germany through
Arbit until $50, 900 worth of goods, besides
the original shipment, were on their way
here or were being rushed through the fac
tories In Germany.

BRADDocK. October l6.-The Braddock Base
ball Association ended the season in rather
bad shape. The proceeds for the season
were nearly 81, 500, but it was not sufficient to
meet the expenses of the club. OverSl 200 were
paid out to players and about $50 for inciden-
tails. The association paid for inclosing the
ground $S75, thus leaving them about Sl5O short
of expenses.
Next season they expect to have club even
better than the present one, and will have it
managed on systematic scale.

Probably the best game so far IN the series
between the Pittsburgs and the county
league teams was that of yesterday at
Recreation Park. The Homesteads tackled
the National LeaguerS, and really made a
creditable performance. Many worse games
have been played between clubs of the big
organizations than that which the Home
steads played. OF course their pitcher was
nit, and, at times, very hard. But
the ball had to be knocked before scoring could
be done, because the boys from the suburban
borough felded admirably as amateurs.
Like all the amateur teams hereabouts the
Homesteads were sadly at sea when face to face
with National League pitcher. They faced
Staley. and when it is said that he struck amen
out it will be well understood that the visitors
were in very great difficulties as far as batting
was concerned. That was
THEIR WEAK POINT
and with perfect play on the part of the home
PLAYERS they should have been shut out. Dietz
the pitcher of the Our Boys team. was in the
box for the visitors and he pitched very good
game considering his class. He showed good
speed and some good curves. He was out
classed, however. The Homesteads had few
really good players with them yesterday, par
ticularly Youngman and II. Rowe. These
two men, judging from their work of yester-
day. would do credit to a much more influential
club than Homestead. They both fielded
splendidly and Rowe hit the ball hard. He
also ran bases well. The outfield was also
good and Colgan did splendidly behind the bat.
One pleasing feature of the game was the fact
that the visitors never ''get the rattles."
The weather was fine, and probably 100 people
were present For five innings the game was
thoroughly interesting as the score stood to
mp TO that stage The amateurs had done
SOME BRILLIANT FIELDING,
the work OF the infeld being great. The Wis
itors really started off as If they were going to
make victims of the big people, and scored one
in the first inning to the local teams none.
The home players could not very readily size
up Dietz. but ultimately they got the young
mans measure and touched him up quite
lively. The home players got their runs by
sound, hard hitting, seven of the runs being
earned. The visitors got their two runs by
errors, and that tells the whole story of the
game.
However the Romesteads can play good
ball, and the team is a credit to the industrious
little borough to which they belong. The stand
that club like the Homesteads can make
against the Pittsburgs speaks volumes for the
future of baseball. The former are all daily
toilers in mill or factory and have youth on
their side. There is surely a bright future
ahead Of some of them. Games such as that of
yesterday will do much TO encourage amateur
ball playing in this section. Following is the
score:

by Bloodhound.
Valentine Burns, 7-year-old boy, was
attacked by a. bloodhound last evening and
was-terribly torn about the throat. The
dog, it was stated, was owned by the Oil Well
Supply Company, and was kept as wat CHI
dog at their works at the corner of SMALL
man and Twenty-frst streets. Yesterday
morning the beast ran away. About 7:3O
o'clock last evening he was following boy
named Doyle along Penn avenue. A crowd
of boys, among whom was Burns, COM
menced to play with the dog. The animal
turned on them and sprang at Burns
throat. 1t seized him but be managed to
break away and ran into Stuckey's drug
store. The hound chased him into the store
butHr. Stuckey knocked it down with q
chair. 1t was then strapped and prevented
from doing further mischief
q. DIR. Miller was called and found the boys
throat terribly lacerated and his condition
very serious. He was removed to his home
on Mulberry alley near Twenty.third street.
A dose of strychnine was administered to
the bloodhound but it had no effect. The
animal was then taken by Officer Miller to
the Twelfth ward station where it was
killed by Lieutenant Teeters.
