The Keya Paha Troubles.

LINCOLN, Neb April 24-[Special Tele
gram to The BEE. The citizens of Keya
Paha county propose to rid that country of
the gang Of cattle and horse thieves that
have been infesting northern Nebraska for
the past four or more years. G.. II. Rogers
and John Bivers, of Springview, were In
conference with Governor Thayer during
the entire afternoon and evening working
upon plan that will lead to the accomplish
ment of this end.
1t seems that the honest law.abiding citi-
zens of that part of the state have grown
desperate. They put it strongly. They say
that neither their property nor their lives
are safe under the present condition
of affairs, Affidavits were submitted
to the governor that leave no
shadow of doubt that horse and cattle
thieving has been carried on to an alarming
extent in that and neighboring counties
Horace Stuart, a former member of the
gang, makes affidavit fixing the identity of a
number OF the leading members of the law
less band. The information he furnished
the governor is so startling that the latter
has concluded to visit that and neighboring
counties for the purpose of inquiring into
the situation from every standpoint, and he
will leave for there IN day or two.
The gang operates without fear of law,
and this is what makes the situation so ex-
asperating. 1t is learned that the thieving is
done on the Indian reservation, thus putting
the criminals beyond the jurisdiction of
either the state or federal courts. and they
laugh at every effort that has been made to
bring them to justice. This led to the or
ganization of the farmers protective asso-
Citations, or vigilance committees, for self
protection. AS the gang puts it, 'anti-
vigilance" committees have been organized,
and the country is kept in constant furore
of agitation. Some of the members of the
band are said to be men of wealth, and they
have friends of position and influence to do
all they can to protect them from summary
vengeance. They tell the story there that
the governor has promised to protect them
with the state militia. This has kept the
protective association inactive for some
time, but the constant thieving, threats and
and clamors led to the visit of Messrs.
Rogers and Bivens, who have put the matter
properly before the governor, and he gave
them the outspoken assurance that no
militia or other body of troops would be sent
into that or any other country to protect and
strengthen lawlessness. This was the
special assurance that the gentlemen sought.
The gang numbers over fifty who are grow
ing rich at the expense of the honest home
steader and stock raiser.

Bassett Holds the Fort.

BAssErT, Neb, April 24.-TSpecial Tele-
gram to THE BEE. The recanvass. to-day, of
the votes cast in Rock county for county seat
at the election on January 20, gives the
county seat to Bassett by majority of thir-
ty-one. Recent developments show such
stupendous fraud on the part of Newport at
the election held in that town that it is gen.
orally conceded by the people of the county
that contest of the election, if instituted,
will result in giving Bassett about twice the
majority which she now has. Positive evil
dence is now collected which will prove fifty
seven out of the l59 votes cast in the precinct
of Newport are illegal, and a careful canvass
of the county shows that there must have
been nearly seventy such votes cast. There
is therefore no question as to whether the
permanent county seat is at Bassett. 1t is
and will stay there.

A ROYAL MALADY,
The Empress OF Austria Troubled
With Hallucinntinn

tCopUiOht 1889 by James Gordon Bcnnett.1
PARIS. April 23.-[New York Herald
Cable-Special to THE BEE. THE en-
press of Austria, accompanied by the Arch
Duchess Marie Valarie, is at present in
Wiesbaden. For some time it haslbeen
rumored that her majesty was suffering from
an incurable disease, but what the nature Of
the disease was mas hitherto not been speci,
fled. The Figaro now asserts that it re-
ceived the following information from
sources on which the utmost reliance can be
placed: ut is true" says this journal,
that the empress of Austria is at
Wlesoaden, but it also is true that
she inhabits villa quite outside
the town and that police agents guard all the
approaches to her house. This is because
the unfortunate empress is subject to the
same mental malady by which her cousin,
King Louis of Bavaria, was visited. She
will see no one. 1t Is not merely since the
death of Archduke Rudolph that the EN-
press Elizabeth has been affected. The
symptoms showed themselves fourteen years
ago in acraving for continual movement and
various hallucinations During the last CEN
tury there have been twenty-seven cases of
insanity in the Bavarian royal family. The
present king is lunatic and several of his
iOiuIiNSo hhSS Dccu dIttChcu NY Unc Sdtle us
ease. For years her majesty never passed
night at the royal palace at Vienna,
and she used to fancy that she
was pursued by the spectre of Maria The
resa. After the death OF Louis III Of Ba-
varia the halucinations to which the en-
press is subjected have assumed one special
character. She fancies that King Louis APP
peared before her and that water flowed
down his garments in such volume as to en-
danger her life. She used to scream out for
help and then become insensible. Her last
years stay at Corfu did her majesty much
good, in fact she endured but one crisis
there, fancying that she was called upon to
enter convent This idea gave way to a
monomania for Heine, and she made jour
ney to Hamburg for the sole purpose of
seeing portrait Of the poet. When
the empress learned of the death of Arch
duke Rudolph the new hallucination took
possession of her that she was her sons
murderer. Her maiesty's disease assumed a
violent character. When the court moved to
Pesth she would not see her physicians, and
clothed herself III ecclesiastical vestments
and refused to take food, and her attendants
were obliged to fasten her hands. At pres
ent, concludes the Figaro, the acute stage of
the disease has passed, leaving a,notable soft
enlng of the brain. The case is more or less
