MURDEROUS COWBOYS CAUGHT.

Arrest of the Men Who Killed Four
 Fun, Indians on Thursday. k ALBUQUERQUE, N. M., May 13.-The three cowboys who killed four Zuni In. dians at Wingate on Thursday afternoon have been caught.
 Their names are James Somervi!le, David Hamon and Robert Davis.
 The cowboys were en route to ranch in the neighborhood, and observing a number of cattle, drove off a dozen or more. The stock belonged to the h. dians, who soon made after the cowboys and demanded their stock. Argument proving futile the Indians attempted t, take the cattle, when Somerville pulled hAssweapon and shot one of the Indians dead.
 The firing then became general. The cowboys proved the best marksmen, and killed all four Indians. Davis was shot through the body, but his companions placed him on his horse and then fled. The matter was reported to the sheriff, who with posse captured tho murder CTS.
 Somerville Is we'll known horse and cattle thief.

 in the Canvass

PHILADELPHIA, May 13.-Senator Quay called upon Gen. Palmer, chairman of tho state prohibition committee, and during conversation on the coming election, said : 'I expect to vote for the prohibitory amendment. I regard the question as one of morals, and not of politics. Oc- cupying the position I do in the Repub- Hcan party, 1t would not be proper that should interfere actively in the canvass on either side. So far as am concerned every Redublican voter who goes to the polls shall exercise the right of suffrage freely, according to his individual judg- ment and conviction of duty"
 Chairman Palmer said: 'The tactics of the enemy so far as developed, are to spread the state over with spacious docu- ments, calculated to deceive people and induce them to vote in favor of their ene- mics. By the payment of liberal sums the liquor men have obtained space in the newspapers for the publication of items which purport to be from prohibit tory states, to the effect that prohibition Is injurious to business and property. In every instance such articles are false hoods, but they are likely to do harm, and must be proved false." s,
