THE DES MONIES LANDS.
Warrants Issued for Prominet Settlers
United States Marshal'S Posse Fired On.

FT. DODGE, Ia, April 4.-Warrants were
issued yesterday for Samuel Heiffner, pres
ident of the Settlers Union. and number
of other settlers, all charged with con-
spiracy, crime punishable by imprison-
ment in the penitentiary. More warrants.
probably thirty, will be issued to-day. and
arrests will be commenced. The United
States marshals posse were foiled yester-
day and did not make a single eviction.
They returned to Webster City late in the
evening The greatest excitement prevails
here over the issuing of war; ants for con-
spiracy. The accused are most respected
citizens, including some eX-county office
holders Another day will In all probabili-
ty definitely settle whether or not the set
tiers can repossess themselves of ther lands,
and whether or not the much feared resist
ance to the officers in the execution of the
law will be made by settlers who are bold
in their threats.
DEs MONIES, Ia, April A United
States marshal and posse were fired upon
to-day from a dense thicket of hazel brush
while in the act of evicting farmer named
Blake from the Litchfield lands, sixteen
miles from Webster City. Probably forty
shots were fired by as many armed settlers.
but the craftsmanship was either poor OF
the range was Intentionally wide, for none
of the deputies were hurt. The posse had a
number of writs, but as they were only
armed with revolvers they did not attempt
to serve them, and retreated in good order.
