SEATTLE, W. T., January 7.-Alfred
Shofford, Bohemian, fred heavy
charge of giant powder under the house
of George Bodayla, at Gilman, thirty
miles east of Seattle, early this morning,
instantly killing John and Mabel Survik
and the 9.year-old child Of Bodayla, and
badly iniurying Bodayla,, his wife and
little son and daughter. Last spring
Bodayla caused the arrest OF Shofford, on
the charge of criminal assault upon his
wife. Shofford was sentenced a short
time to Imprisonment in the County
Jail, and when he was released he made
such serious threats against the life OF
Bodayala that he was again
arrested and incarcerated in all.
After his release he returned to Gilman,
and since then he made numerous threats
against Bodayla, who made arrangements
to remove to San Francisco. Bodayla
got the two Survik brothers to stop with
him. At 4 80 this morning Shofford
fired the giant powder and utterly demol-
ished the house. Shofford was found at
his own house after the explosion. Every
indication pointing to him as the perpe-
TRAITOR of the deed, he was placed under
arrest, and later upon the arrival of the
Sheriff he was turned over to that
officer. This afternoon while the
Sheriff was at dinner, a crowd
of fifty broke open the house
where Shofford was confined, took him
to tree and hanged him up, first trying
to induce him to confess. He refused
and was hanged up. After thirty seconds
he was taken down and given another
chance. Still declining he was again
and cut down for the second
time. He was then very weak, and
efforts to make him divulge were still
fruitless and he was hanged for the third
and last time. No effort at concealment
was made by the mob,

Wickham, recently doing business under
the title of the Lockspring Mattress Com
pany, was arrested this evening on a
complaint sworn to by Cashier Rams
den, of the Suspended Califor-
mia National Bank, who charges
that Wickham has defrauded
that institution out of nearly
three thousand dollars at various times
by means of forged papers, and that
when he failed in November last the
bank was his creditor to the amount of
nearly forty thousand dollars, less than
so per cent. of which he recovered
from his assets. 1t was the
Investigation Of Wickham's irregularities
which, it is stated, led to the discoveries
which closed the doors of the bank y
short time ago. The particular offense
with which he is charged is the forging
of bill of three months acceptance
for $311, signed in the name Of F. H..
Wilt, of Fresno, dated May "a, 1888. The
paper was cashed by the bank, but inves-
tigation showed there was no F. H. Wilt

Reed Resolution.
WASHINGTON, January 7.-About fifty
OF the Democratic members of the House
met in caucus tonight to consider the
question how to get around the difficulty
in the rules of the House, which has OBJ
structed legislation the past few days.
Bland, of Missouri, embodied his views
in resolution declaring it to be the sense
of the caucus that the resolution pending
in the House should be defeated, but
that on the first and third Mon
days of each month no dila-
tory tactics should be resorted
to in order to prevent the passage of a
measure under suspension of the rules.
After considerable discussion Springer
raised the point of order that no quorum
was voting, and that less than quorum
could not bind the Democrats who were
absent or who were present and opposed
the resolution. Cox said he had never
heard of the point of no quorum being
raised in a caucus. After some further
debate the resolution was adopted.

did not telegraph yesterday as you
requested, because it seemed important,
under the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES we had
been asked by the engineers to say what
our position is-that it should be done
with the authority of the whole Executive
Committee. The company will not fol-
low up the black list or in any manner
attempt to prescribe those who were con-
eerned in the strike, but, on the contrary.
will cheerfully give to all who have not
been guilty of violence or other improper
conduct, letters of introduction showing
their record in our service, and will, in
all proper ways, assist them in find
ing them employment. The first duty
of the management is to those who are
in the company's employ, and we must
remember and protect their interests by
promotions and by every other means in
our power. Beyond this, should it be-
come neces sary to 60 outside of the SER
vice for men in any capacity, it is our
intention to select the best men avail
able, and in making selections not to
exclude those who were engaged in the
strike of February 9th, if they are the
best men available, and provided they
have not since been guilty of violence or
other improper conduct. You are au-
thorized to give copy of this message
to the engineers who called upon you.

A Row Between Artists I'm High
Life--tseneral Notes.

LONDON, January ARTIST Stott, who
resided principally in Paris, created a
hubbub of excitement in the rooms of
the Hogarth Club, Wednesday night by
denouncing his brother artist, Whistler
as liar and a coward. Whistler gave
a very prompt evidence of the
disapproval of such language
and after administering some rather Sc
we're blows on Stott's head, reports say
he kicked the offender out of the room.
Artist Whistler subsequently wrote a
humorous letter to the club committee
giving the facts attending the case,
and claiming that the measures he had
adopted would PREVENT in future members
of the club being made subject to insults.
A rumor of duel between the two gen.
tlemen is prevalent. Stott's grievance is
understood to be that he was unfairly
treated by Whistler when that gentle.
man was President OF the Royal Society
of British Artists.
