AN Ex-soLDIER PARDoNED.
President Harrison Reduces tn
sSantenca of a Colorad Ex-SoIdiar.

President Harrison Reduces the
Sentence of Colored Ex-Soldier.
Fred L. McGhee, colored attorney of
this city, has just succeeded in obtaining
from President Harrison tull and free
pardon for a colored ex-soldier named
Lewis Carter. who was sentenced by court
marshal to the state prison at Saltwater for
ninety mine years. The pardon is to go
into effect on May Is next. just five years
after the date Carter i'm prisonlr ent began.
Carter was member of the Twenty-fifth
infantry, which was stationed at Fort Shell
ing prior to Jan. L, 1885. Shortly after that
date when Carriers company was trans
ferred to another post, he was arrested on
the charges of rape, assault, robbery and
desertion. A court martial was convened,
and Carter was tried and found guilty of the
four offenses. The sentence OF the court
martial was that he be confined in the prison
at Saltwater for the period of ninety-nine
years. Some time ago Mr.. McGhee became
interested in the case, and was soon satisfied
that an injustice had been perpetrated. He
found the woman who was said to have
been assaulted, and she made an affidavit
that Carter did not commit rape, or even
assault her. Then evidence was secured
that no robbery had been committed The
evidence was forwarded to President Har-
rison. who carefully examined the whole
case, and decided that Carter was guilty
only of desertion Five years was consid-
cred sufficient punishment for that offense,
and the pardon will .applyte the remainder
sof the sentence.

FOR HIS MONEY
Henry Merre, a Wealthy Iowa
Farmer, Murdered by
Thieves.
Fight Between Political Parties
in Peru, in Which Many
are Killed,

CLINTON. Iowa, Special Telegram,
Twenty miles north of here at the
little village of Browns, Clinton county, a
horrible murder was discovered. A mile
and half from the station, the house To-
Gated in dense grove of timber, lived
Henry Nurre, a wealthy German farmer,
and his wife. They lived alone, and not
having been seen since Monday a relative
went to the house this morning, and as he
entered the kitchen an awful sight met his
eyes. Upou the floor at his feet lay the
dead body Of Henry Nurre. His throat
had been cut and his head crushed in, the
latter done with hammer. A bloody
trail led to the sitting room, where upon
table lay letter just completed, but not
inclosed, bearing date of March IL.
Continuing the search, the aged wife was
fatally injured and in comatose condi-
ton. Her head has been beaten to jelly
with hammer, breaking the bone and
leaving the brain exposed. Mr.. Nurre was
an old man of seventy-six years Of age, was
very wealthy and had resided in Clinton
county for nearly fifty years. He had been
a justice of the peace for about twenty
years, transacting a. great deal of business
and frequently keeping large sums of
money in the house. From traces left it
would seem at least three were concerned
in the murder. The combination had
been broken off the safe, but the scoundrels
failed to open it. In the house was
satchel containing $1,1OO in cash which
they failed to secure. About all they got
for their bloody work was small sum
from the pockets of their victims. There is
no clue to The wretches, and as far as is
known no one saw the awful deed done
save the perpetrators themselves. Great ex-
prevails. The sherifs of two
counties are there and the coroner of Gin
ton county has gone and will hold an in
guest at once. A dispatch received from
Theodore Huelman at Browns offers 81, 900
reward.

water passing over the levees in
front OF the city and running back
has oyerfowed large section of the

rapidly at the head of Peters street and the
sidewalks and streets in the vicinity are
covered with water. The water is also run
ming over the levee pretty freely at Third.
Fourth, Sixth, Eighth, Toledano, sarayaetu
and State streets. Gangs of men are working
along the levee at many points and the flow
o.. q, w water into the. city may be checked if
doing good work in assisting the authorities
all along the line. The outlook tonight.
however, is by no means reassurine.
Dispatches from up the river saw that al
the streams are still rising with the water
flowing over the levees, but that as vet not
much has been done If the rise continues
much larger tracts of country will be over
flowed and much damage done.

THE CRAIGEND AFFAIR.
1t May Blow Over Without any Ser
ious International Complication.

1t May Blow Over Without any Ser
ious international Complication.
TACOMA, Wash, Special Telegram.
The British vice consul, J, B. Alex
ander of Port Townsend, the chief port of
entry of Puget sound, representing the
British government has arrived here to in
vestlgate officially the unwarrantable
seizure Of the British ship Craigend
by constables. Maritime and commercial
circles are excited over his arrival 1t is
probable now that the affair may blow over
without any serious International complica-
tions. The consul expressed that hope,
and, notwithstanding he had cabled his
government of his intended investigation,
he will try to adjudlcate matters agreeable
to both countries and satisfactory to all pri-
yate parties concerned He boarded the
Craigend this morning, and two hours later
went with Capt. Hamilton to the office of
Alex Bail1e the vessels agent, for con-
course. This continued Tor another two
hours, after which they left for Seattle with
other parties. When your correspondent
vestigated the matter briefly, and as yet I
can say nothing about it. have come down
here to look into the affair thor
oughly, and SHALL make a full investi-
CATION. hope the seizure will not result
in any very serious trouble and that it will
appear to be the outcome OF mlSunder-
standing or the result of ignorance Of the
laws. I usually report to Consul Donahue
att San Francisco, as am only vice con-
SUI. What action he will take I cannot
say; it may be that the whole matter can be
adjusted here and nothing further done
about it than to try the suit brought against
the ship in the proper courts" Speaking
of the alleged desertion of the ff-
teen negro sailors, the consul said:
.'Those sailors were British subjects while
they were aboard the Craigend and were
subject to the English maritime laws. Be-
fore leaving England they signed articles to
the effect that they would remain on her
until she completed her voyage and arrived
back in England. Their pay was not due
them until their contract was completed,
and they ts could aons Leave the vessel
tain. If he gave them leave to be
absent from the ship for forty-eight hours
and they were away for q longer period
they We're deserters and forfeit all wages
they may have earned. If the men went
ashore with the captains consent in the
ships boat it does not follow that he should
have furnished them boat to get back
with; they were to get back the best way
they could" Col Efinger, an attorney in
the case has gone to Port Townsend to get
Collector of Customs Bradshaw to actin
the difficulty.

TROUBLE PERU.
Fight Between Political Parties in
Which Several are Killed.

T .
LIMA, Special.-The antagonism exist
ing between Senores Roses and Morales
Bernludez, the two candidates of the Con-
stitutional party for the presidential NOM
ination, is probably greater now than it
was at the beginning, for the friends of
both remain firm, and the agitation
in the provinces has already assumed grave
proportions. From Puno news has been
received Of a collision between the Rositas
and Bermudistas, resulting in the loss of
a number of lives and the pillage
of many houses by drunken Indians
Recently both Bermudez and Rosas arrived
at Huanta, in the province of Ayacucho,
where under most serious auspices they
started an election eering strife and an
armed collision between the two parties
was the result. It is also stated
that battle has already taken place
in the streets of Huanta, and many on both
sides were killed, among them being the
chiefs of both parties in the town
mentioned. namely, Senior Lazona,
deputy Of congress and head OF
the revolution, and DR.. Urbina.
chief of the Rosas party, Dr. Urbina, hav-
his side during the eight hours of the COM
bat, left with the remaining members
to seek refuge at the Matriz church.
There he found number of
women, children and old people The
priest, before the horrible tragedy took
place. exhorted the Indians to desist in the
name of humanity from their horrible
mode of procedure.
WENT TO THE SLAUGHTER.
AS the Indians drew near the church
threatening to burn it, DR.. Urbina, know
ing that he had been the only cause for
such action on the part of the Indians
and wishing to save the lives of
the many innocent persons that had
taken refuge in the church, resolved with
out losing time to sacrifice himself and ter
inmate the anguish of his friends. Leav-
ing the church he addressed his enemies
in the tollowing strain: II ~. Urbins,
whom you are looking for. Kill ne ii
you like but the persons in the church
are not my accomplices.. Do not iniure
them" The priest gave him his benedic-
ton and accompanied him to the door of
the church. The priest intended to return
and close The church, but as he arrived at
the porch he became deprived of reason.
A few moments afterwards the head
of this victim of the implacable hatred
and barbarity of his countrymen was to be
seen at distance The Guerillas, in their
drunken fury, not being satisfied with the
murder of Dr.. Urbina, continued to slaugh-
ter the inhabitants and to sack and burn
the town for many. hours afterward. Over
one hundred lives were sacrificed to the old
rancor existing between the families OF
Lazon and Urbina.
