A NEW ELDORADO.
Shoshone and ArapahOe Lands Coded to

ShOshone and ArapahOe Lands Coded to
the Government.
DENVER, Oct. 16.-An Associated
Press correspondent who accompanied
the commission to negotiate with the
Shoshone and Arapahoe Indians, of Wy
oming, for the cession of part of the Wind
river reservation, telegraphs that the
commission has effected an agreement
with the Indians under which they cede
to the United States about 1, 100, 900
acres out of total of 100000 acres.
The Indians receive 100000 or about
55 cents per acre. The lands coded
include practically all the land north Of
the Wind river and strip on the east
ern part of the reservation. The coun-
try is we'll watered, the bottom lands
are rich, and there are 100000 acres of
bench lands, which irrigation companies
can make good agricultural land at a
reasonable cost. The whole of the res
ervation is fine sheep and cattle range.
Coal and oil are found on the coded
lands, and there are indications of more
valuable mineral. The country is $50
miles from railroad communication.

Mr.. Ben Hunsaker will be forced to
produce evidence to show that he did
not embezzle $1,000 and few odd cents
from Mrs. Griffin. Clarke. This was the
decision which City Justice Owens ar
rived at yesterday afternoon. lie did SO
after he had heard all OF the testimony
which the people, or rather the prose-
cution, desired to present.
This was followed by long and
wearisome argument. The defense
made a motion to dismiss the case on
the very general ground of the INSULT
cheney of the evidence.
Assistant District Attorney Phibbs and
lie Compile Davis spoke against the mo.
ton to dismiss on behalf OF the people.
G. G. Stephens endeavored by his pecu-
liar and persuasive eloquence to convince
the court that the defendant was inno-
cent Of any intent to defraud or embez-
zle. Mr.. Stephens talked for about two
hours in his usual way. At times he
was funny. and at other times he was
serious. But it would be hard matter
to draw the dividing line.
AT any rate, Justice Owens finally de-
cided that there was not ground suf-
ficient to warrant a dismissal of the
prosecution for the reason that the
people had not made case.
The defense then announced that they
would commence the Introduction OF
testimony in rebuttal. The first wit
ness called was Pete Sweeney. AS
''Pete" was not present in the court
room a recess of five minutes was taken
until he could be called. "Pete" failed
to show up, and after more or less by
play between the attorneys, Justice
Owens declared the case adjourned until
8 a. m. today, when it will again come

mined to Make Him DisgOrge.
New York, Oct 16.-The application
of Henry Sanford, president of
the Adams Express company, for an
attachment against the property of
John Hoey, the deposed president of
that company, in a suit to recover over
half million dollars, was granted to-
day. The summons attached to the
papers announces to Hoey that if he de-
faults in appearing to answer the suit,
judgment will be taken against him for
$712,950, with interest and costs.
Vice President Loveioy in an affidavit
tells how at various times Hoey, either
individually or with other persons, ac-
quired all the interests of the New York
and Boston Dispatch, the Kingsley Elk.
press and the Union Express COM
pany, for the aggregate ex-
penditure of $153, 900, which was
the full value of the stock. 1t was
sold to the Adams Express company Tor
$3.50 900, the surplus amount being APP
propriated by Hoey to his own use and
that OF others, in fraud of the rights OF
the Adams Express company and in vio-
lation of his duties as an officer and
trustee.
Lovejoy further alleges that when
Treasurer Babcock died in 1885, he was
indebted to the company $4,000, and
to discharge this indebtedness his adj
ministrators turned that sum over to
Hoey. Lovejoy charges that Hoey like
wise appropriated this sum.
By reason of all these facts, figuring
interest, etc., it is alleged there is now
due the Adams Express company from
the defendant 1856 ,905.
Hoey could not be found to-day and
the sheriff was unable to serve the
summons.

STATE NOTES.

The authorities Of Shamong township,
Burlington county, are engaged in lnyes-
tigating a supposed murder there. John
Marshall, who is past NIFTY years, and Is
said 70 be half Indian and half negro, mas
been missing since Monday, and the cir
cumstances attendant upon his disappear
ance seem TO indicate that he has been
made away with and his body hid in the
swamp. Marshall is a married .man,
without children, and lived with his wife
and mother in law, the latter being the
famous Ann Roberts, the last survivor of
the band OF Edgepillock Indians, who for
many years were quartered on the reser-
walton in Shamong. Searching parties
have been out daily, but have learned
nothing. and it is the opinion of nearly
every one that he was murdered IL Is
said that he q threatened to expose
some of the lawless men in the ~neighbor-
hood who had stolen wood from lands
claimed by his mother in law, and they
in turn threatened to put him u of the
way.
The Elizabeth Athletic Club has decided
to build a I'm club house at a cost OF S25,-
coo. 1t will be two stories in height with
a basement. The bowling alleys, shoot
ing gallery and billiard rooms will be on
the first floor. The gymnasium, reading
reading and card rooms Will be on the
second floor. There will be a good-sized
hall for athletic exercises and sparring
exhibitions.
Some citizens Of Bloomington propose
to drop tina name and resume the old
name of South Bound Brook. To this end
a petition is being circulated n will be
presented to the Somerset Count of Com
mon Pleas. 1t is said also that East
Bound Brook people desire to dissolve
present boundary lines and become part
aud parcel of the new borough. Other
suburbs are expected to follow suit.

Gently ate seven raw eggs shell and all.
in less than three minutes, has been
offered a position in one of the New York
museums at a salary of $50 a week Ken
nedy's duty will be to eat six whole raw
eggs nightly. He has the offer unde

An attempt was seemingly made at
New Brunswick on Thursday to poison
Policeman Allen, who lately made a COM
plant by which several pa~rticipators in u
cock light were arrested. His wife made
coffee for the family breakfast, and also
used some of the water for making starch.
A 'nauseous taste called attention to the
coffee. u it was set aside. Later the
starch showed a peculiar appearance, and
chemists said carbolie acid mad been put
in the water. Tn perpetrators of the
affair are not known.
John VI. Moore Of Clayton has entered
into contract for the purchase of the
Franklin Lake, at FranklinvilIe. which is
the true terminus of the Maurice River.
Mi. Moore, who spent between $50, 600
and $4,000 in clearing off several
thousand acres of swampy land and max
lug it into large meadows, Is unable to
farm the rich meadows on account of the
water, which covers the land about eight
months in the year, and the object of pur-
chasing the lake is TO drain these meadows
by raising the flood gates.
