High Freight Rates.

Shippers of stock grumble at the Atlantic & Pacific railroad compa- ny for what they say are it's extrav- agant freight rates, which prevent our stock raisers from sending more cattle to market. If these rates are kept up, stockmen say they will be compelled to drive cat tie to California markets. This they can and will do.
 fit be true, as stated, that the Santa Fe is running the Atlantic & Pacific, we hope its managers will at once heed this complaint; also, to another complaint, that our peo- pie are getting no benefit from the short haul clause of the interstate commerce laW.-Prescott Courier.

American Meat,

London, May 29.-Much diseont- ent exists in France in regard Q the virtual embargo on American pork, which has raised the price of meat considerably throughout the coun- try. The American product is dis criminated against byvexatious agd unnecessary inspection on the pre- tense that disease may be lurking in the meat.
 The working classes in the city are indignant over the discrimina- ton, which they regard as in tended for the benefit of the peas ant farmers of France at the eX- pense of consumers in the indus triel centers.
 Delahaye. who was the French representative in the Berlin confer ence for the benefit of the working men, expresses himself very plain ly against the policy of excluding foreign meat.

Threatened Race War.


 Birmingham (AIa.), May 28.-A serious race war is threatened at SIX Mile. a small town in Bibb county, fifty miles southwest of this city.
 Yesterday four young women were walking along the principal street, when they were met by three negro women, Dora Carter, Lillie BeIcher and Mandy Johnson. The sidewalk was narrow ard both parties refused to make any room. The negro women then pushed the white women into the street, at the same time applying to chem a num- Der of vile epithets.
 Last night a party of white men went to the house of the three ne- gro women, and, dragging them from bed in their night clothes, gave them a terrible Aogging. Some of the women was beaten into insensi- bility and all of them were whip ped in most brutal manner. This created great excitement among the negroes and ata early hour this morning the negro men began to assemble on the streets, and to talk the matter over, at the same time

threatening vengeance against the whites.
 They soon became demonstrative, whites grew alarmed and began to arm themselves.
 The negroes were ordered to dis .perse, but showed no inclination to do so until they were attacked by the whites and driven off the streets by force. Many of them showed fight and for a time a bloody riot was threatened, but the negroes be- ing outnumbered and poorly arm- ed drew off to wait for reinforce ments.
 They were much excited and threaten to burn the town and kill every white man who attacks them. The town Is guarded by well-armed citizens, whites, who will kill every negro who attempts to make trou- ble. The latest report from the town says the negroes are receiving guns and pistols and a conflict IS expected before morning.

Secretary Proctor, af- ter consulting with the necessary cabinet officers, will advise General Miles of the result.

Conspiracy in Brazil.

New York, May 26.--A letter re- ceived by the New York Herald from Rio Janeiro, dated April 26th, says:
 The other day there was arrested a man named Hcnrique Ayes de Caryalho, who .has been a proml- nent and far from edifying figures in local politics for years. His arrest was decided surprise, which was heightened by report that among his papers, documents were found seriously compromising Colonel Solon, a prominent figure of the re- yoIution, and proving that the so- called Executive Committee had a scheme in view to upset the Gov ernment and replace General Dea- don by Colonel SOlon.
 Carvalho is confined at the mili- tary police barracks, and search is being made for his associates.
 Colonel SoIon, it Is said has made his escape. General opinion is that the plotters proposed to repeat the resolution of November and put out present rulers just as the latter busted the Imperialists.

 lawyer of Los Angeles, was brought in here Sunday from the Chiricahua mountains, where he was killed by hostile Apaches last Saturday. His companion, Dr. Haynes, of Phila- delphia, had his horse shot from under him, and escaped by mount ing his dead friends horse. The

 San Francisco, May 26.-The of ficial news ofsthe murder of Robert Hartlie a Los Angeles attorney, by a band of Apaches at Rucker can von, Arizona, was received at army headquarters to-day. Speaking of the affair General Miles said that ''the Indians are Kid and his party, who attempted the life of the agent at San Carlos in June, 1887, and who were captured, tried by the military authorities and sentenced to ten years in the penitentiary at Fort Leavenworth, but who were afterwards in January, 1888, sent to Alcatraz. In October, 1889, they were released, and by order of the authorities at Washington were sent back to Arizona. At San Car los they were arrested by the civil authorities, tried and sentenced to be hanged. They were again re- leased from the penitentiray at Co lumbus, Ohio, and returned to Ari- zona to be again tried, the United States Supreme Court having de- cided that the United States Dis trict Court for Arizona could not try them. They were again tried by the Civil Court of Arizona and sentenced. While on the way to the Yuma penitentiary in charge of Sheriff Reynolds and guard on the 2d of last November they killed the sheriff and escaped to Mexico where they have been engaged in depredations in Sonora ever since. The killing of Robert Hardie Is the first crime committed on Uni ted States territory since last No vember. The Apaches secured their arms from teamsters and murdered in Mexico. The Indians at large numbered on- ly eight, and they were, Kid, Me guee, SAyes, Washlanta, La Cohn. Tonto, Bpt, Hasten, Todody and Caddayduan. or these four are be- lieved to have been killed. The first four were originally under sen tence for four years, the fifth and sixth for twelve years, and the last two for life. Orders were issued last November to all posts to look out for the escapes, and further or ders were issued this afternoon by Major General Miles from division headquarters to pursue and capture or destroy the hostile.

Outraged Honor Avenged.

Lyons & Campbell of this city, shot and instantly killed John R. McManigil last night between 10 and Ii o'clock.
 Lyons and Campbell, who are among the heaviest cattle-owners in southern New Mexico, are making a large shipment of cattle, and Mr. Lyons told his wife yesterday that he was going to Kansas City with a train-load of cattle. After the cattle were loaded in the evening, however, he changed his mind about going on that train, and af- ter it left the stockyardS he started for the pretentious residence where his family and that of Mr. Camp bell live. The residence is about half a mile outside the city limits.
 There was no light in the house, but as NIT. Lyons entered the room where his wife was he saw the flash of a nickel-plated revolver in some mans hand in the moonlight. He fired three shots from a 45-caliber Colts revolver at the man, who proved to be McManigil, Only one shot took effect, and that entered the left side of McNanigil's neck and ranged downward, producing instant death.
 The reports of the pistol aroused Mr. Campbell, who was asleep up stairs, and he hurried down just in time to save the life of Mrs. Lyons by getting between her and her in furiated husband, who was deter mined to kill her too.
 After the shooting Mr. Campbell notified Deputy Sheriff, who ar rested Lyons at the house. He madeno effort to escape. The off cer found McManigil with a cooked revolver lightly grasped in his right hand, but the finger was pressing against the guard instead of the trigger, which probably accounts for his failure to shoot at Lyons.
 Scandal-mongers have Eaid par ticnlar attention to the too appa- rent attachment between McManigil and Mrs. Lyons for nearly four years, and Mir. Lyons, was not en- tirely ignorant of the state of affairs. Some time ago he offered McMani- gil $10,000 if he would take Mrs. Lyons and leave the country. Re gently he met the destroyer of his home on the street in this city, and raising his hat pointed to his gray hairs and said:
 "Do you see these gray hairs? You are the cause of them. 1 warn you now never to come to my house again"
 McManigil stretched out his hand in prollered friendship, but Lyons refused to take it, saying:
 II cannot do it."
 Mrs. Lyons came to town after Iher husband told her yesterday he .was going to Kansas City, and it is supposed that she told McManigil her husband would be away for sev- eral days. At any rate McManigil went to the house a little after s o'clock last night, little suspecting that Lyons would return.
 Lyons had hearing this morning before Justice Givens, who from the evidence offered considered 1t a case of justifable homicide and dis charged him from custody. The decision of the Justice is entirely in accord with popular felling.
 Mrs Lyons, being a woman of tact and attainments, pleasing in manner and the wife of a wealthy cattleman moved in the most fash ionable society, and McManigil, in spite of the scandal-mongers, was one of the favored young men of the city. He was a Pennsylvanian, but had been in New Mexico for severa! years,
