DUNHAM's MYSTERIOUS MURDER.
George ~. Fulier. Oae or Many Men With
. Motive, Stltl Held.

George W. Fuller. the Brooklyn man who is
supposed to have had a motive for killing Will
liam II. Durham OF the Belleville Hotel is still
kept in the witness room Of the Newark Police
Headquarters. and lie is becoming tired OF the
confinement. Superintendent Brown admits
that he has no proof that Fuller was near
Belleville on Dec. -. when Durham was shot
in the head through back window OF the
hotel. His efforts have chiefly been directed
to proving that Fuller was not where he says
he was at the time. which is In Brooklyn. The
little affair about Fullers love for the girl with
whom Durham was infatuated is established
to Superintendent Browns entire satisfaction.
and that is tho motive upon which the solution
ofthe mystery Is supposed TO depend. The Su-
perintendent says he would work as hard to
prove Fullers innocence as no would his guilt.
and he hopes to know enough In the next
twenty four hours to warrant releasing the
prisoner or sending him to Jail accused Of
murder.
An Inquest in the case will be held to-day or
to.morrow by Coroner schwa{tA at the s,iE-

THE DEADLOCK IN CONNECTICUT:
A New Programme Decided Upon BY the
Republicans OF the House.

Republicans OF the H0use.
HARTFORD. Jan. 17.-Perhaps the queerest
phase OF the mixed political situation In Con-
necticut will be apparent on Wednesday Of
this week. the day to which tho Senate and
House have adjourned. On that daythe Dem.
ocratic members OF the House will assemble
but tho Republicans will not. That is the pro-
Gramme as now mapped out by the Republi-
Gun party leaders.
A week ago. when the House was last in scs-
sion. the Democrats stampeded from the hall
twice to prevent the adoption OF a rule giving
the Speaker power to adjourn the Houso in the
absence OF gu Drum to any time within two
mouths.
Tho Democratic leader. have publicly an
nounced that they will resist every proposal to
time until It shnll have completed the election
oerqtic State officers The Republicans.
as there is no probability that they can SECURE
quorum by Wednesday. have now deter
quorum and thus allow the Speaker under
special rule. to declare u recess for one week.
Tho following week no will do the, same until
the Kepubllcans can again controla quorum
This strike Of the Republicans Is taken MS
meaning the mpossbiiity Of the deadlock over
State officers being broken The recent Su-
preme Court decision points out that in such n
case the Domocrntic ella imants may tax their
cases to the Superior Court. This will prob
ably soon DO done

EXCITED BY GHOST DANCING.
The Usage and Pawnee Indlans Keeping
the Cherokee Strip Stirred Up.

OUTLINE. Jan. ia courier from the Cher
okee strip to.n night reports fear OF trouble ON
the Usage and Pawnes reservations. in the
eastern part Of the strip. The Usage Indians
have been stubborn for year. A few months
ago their agent advised them not to treat with
the Government Commissioners for the sale of
their lands saying that they owned 1t and
should keep it all Then they became imbued
with tho idea OF running things to suit them
selves. White people travelling through the
reservation have been surrounded by Indians,
who have detained them. dancing around
them aud going through the form OF taking
scaps. Within the last week the blanket In.
dams OF this tribe have been holding a ghost
dance. which grows larger and more vigorous
every day. Tho participants have now become
worke up to such pitch that 1t is unsafe for
white man to venture near. They claim that
the Messiah has promi Sod to come and lead
them in a grand campaign against the white
mon. when every one Of the latter will %
driven into the ocean.
Across the river from the Usage reseryation
the Pawnees are having u dance. and q few
days ago u large party of Osages captured
some stragg!ing Pawnees. tied them up to y
tree and held a mock scalp dance about them
all day. Tho Pawneos are very angry over
this and threaten to retaliate. Should any
number OF these two tribes come in contact
while they are excited from dancing an open
and bloody war will surely follow.
