Murdered and Robbed by Tramps.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-One mile west
of DunelIen, on the Central railroad of
New JERSEY, Is the water station of
Greenbrook. All freight trains bound
east or west stop there for water. Tramps
knowing they can easily catch a train, are
often seen there. At $50 on Friday
night the Blue Line fast express ran over
a man who was lying on the track about
500 yards east of the station. The enei-
neer stopped and the dead body was car
RED on the train to Duuellen, where it
was placed IN the freight house to await
Identification.
Evidence has been discovered which
throws doubt on the theory of accidental
death. James Burke and William Nc
Mahon. two boys living in Dunellen,
noticed a well dressed man, with dark hair
and mustache, walking slowly along the
track toward G~reenbrook. They passed
several tramps on their way. On Satur-
day morning a party of men, 100 feet
from the spot where the man was struck.
found an empty pocket book twisted
wrong side out. No money had been
found on the body and no papers. TheS
theory was formed that the man was at
tackled by tramps, who robbed him of his
money and papers, throwing the pocket
book away, after extracting its contents,
and leaving him unconscious on the rail-
road track. Undertaken McDedeo of
New Brunswick, who has charge of the
remains, said last night hat no one had
identified the man.

Hanged, but Now Alive.

CHATTANOOGA. Tenn, Jan. 27,-Rufe
Moore, colored. was hanged at Trenton,
Ca, in May last for murder. The
culprit's neck was not broken, but he was
pronounced a very dead man by the
physicians as well as by others who saw
him cut down, cofined and placed in a
wagon 20 be taken over the mountains to
his old home for burial. 1t is now pretty
certain that Moore was not dead, and
that the shaking up he received in the
ride in his coffin over rough rodes revived
him and that he recovered his original
strength. Several persons claim to have
lately seen Rufe Moore walking about the
streets of Bridgeport. Ala. just as if he
had never been hanged, except that he
has a peculiar enlargement around the
neck, supposed to have been caused by
the rope. Creditible witness s are sure
they are not mistaken, and the affair is
creating a great sensation through North
Alabama and Georgia.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The farmers
and lawyers had a battle in the house
today aud the result was a decisive victory
for the agriculturists. For several sessions
there has been a jealousy between the
judiciary and agriculture committees in
the matter of olemargarine legislation.
Today 1t was revived by the introduction
of a bill by Hatch amending the present
olemargarine law. Hatch asked for its
reference to the committee of agriculture,
to which Chairman Culberson of the
Judiciary committee objected. A roll cal
resulted in a victory Tor hatch-128 to
llS. The purpose ofthe bill. said Hatch
is to place olemargarine in original
packages in the same legal condition in
the states as The Wilson bill places the
sale and distribution OF liquors.
The discussion of the report of the com
mittee of rules was resumed and Hooker
of Mississippi. though in general advo-
eating the proposed rules expressed him
self in favor of selecting a committee OF
fifteen to decide what measures should be
brought to the attention of the house. 1t
was too large a power TO vest on the com,
mittee on rules.
Watson of Georgia took the floor and
laid down the principles of the Farmers
Alliance party, including the abolition of
National banks as banks of issue, free sill
yer, abolition of alien ownership of lands,
the election of senators bv the people,
that the government should issue money
to the people who need 1t to perfect their
exchanges, practically free OF cost, and
hat through the sub-treasury plan OF
something better, the people should have
the privilege of the use Of that money,
by giving such security as was considered
good in the commercial world. They dc.
mand a graduated income tax, and thai
no mans business be built up at the ex,
pense of another man. After further
debate the house adjourned.

THERE'S PLENTY or FEED.
The Report That Cattle are Starving

A well known ranchman in the north
ern part of Laramie county writes to
THE LEADER as follows: Tho pub
lIshed reports in a number of papers
throughout Wyoming. to the effect that
many thousand cattle are perishing and
will perish during the winter for lack of

section could be much more easily
wintered, should we experience a mild
winter we have plenty of hay and cattle
feed of ell sorts to keep them sleek if we
are forced to feed heavy.
This is the case with me, l having
about 100 lead of cattle. and as to dozens
of my n%eighbors, many Of whom have

stockmaD, that if some parties can not
injure the common cattle aud ranchmen
of Wyoming enough by saying the cattle

they will malign us by saying they are

the hands of Miss Nellie B~ourngresser.
on Vernon street last evening. Monroe
sent a very insulting note to Miss Bourn-

certain place. The Young lady. whose
character is above reproach, laid the mat
ter before city marshal, who advised her
to 20 to the place designated by the young
man and deal with him as she thought

to do this, and meeting the gay young
man at the appointed time, she immedl-

the marshal and county attorney came
out from where they had been hiding and
caught Monroe and held him while the
lady piled her whip more vigorously than
ever with telling effect. When she had
satisfied herself the fellow was taxed to Jail

A New Phase Leaked Ont.

BALTIMORE, Jan. 27.-The Herald
will tomorrow publish a story to the effect
that during the time the cruiser
Baltimore was lying in the harbor of
Valparaiso prior to the success of the
Congressional party, an executive officer
of that ship was sending daily kilograms
to a New York paper which were
uniformly in favor OF the Balmaceda
government. As soon as Capt. Schley
learned that one of his officers was acting
as a paid correspondent he suspended the
officer in question for ten days, but that
after that time he was relnstated. This
matter is what called Capt Schley to
Washington from San Francisco. 1t is
well known hat Schley's orders to his
officers and men were positive against
their expression in favor of either side.

official information was understandable, it is
believed Egan's message was the one
transmitting the Chilean government
reply and giving a substance of the con-
c~essiops made. For this reason Egan
may not have been full enough in his
statements to thoroughly make clear the
full force of Perriers' answer. The dis
patch containing the reply OF Senior
Perriers, Chilean minister of foreign
affairs, Is very long and its translation

to be a frank and splendidly written docu-
ment, breathing throughout a spirit OF
friendship and good will to the United

1t is said to be clear and unequivocsl.
Nothing whatever is lett of the Malta
note, which Is not only withdrawn but
apoiogized for. Most sincere regret is
expressed for the Baltimore incident, and
an offer to refer it to the supreme court is
an illustration of the friendly feeling of
the Chileans towards the United States.
Expressions of cordially towards this
country are p~rofuse. 1t is said the whole
tone of the document is apparently sin
cere. friendly and manly, and leaves the
matter in such a shape that it is hardly
possible to fail to bring the two countries
closer together. and the result will be an

NEW PARTY GETTING READY FOR

Omaha Convention Attracting Attention

Omaha Convention Attracting Attention
All Over the Country.
Reports from all over the country
show that the so-called Peoples party
is very active and that the convention
at Omaha will be largely attended.
The leaders of the movement insist
that they will be able to break the
solid South, but this is as stoutly
denied by the Democrats. There is
no doubt that the third party will
cut much of figure in North Caro-
lima, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi,
Texas and Arkansas in the South,
and Nebraska, South Dakota, Mime
sofa, Kansas, Colorado and Nevada
in the North.
1t appears from the present outlook
that the Alliance, or at least what is
left of it, will go with the new party.
Indiana is said to be particularly
strong for the third party, although
both parties deny that it is develop
ing any unusual strength. The
movement seemed to have received
severe backset in Ohio last fall, from
which it cannot recover unless all the
indications are at fault. Kentucky
is stronger in that direction than it
was last year. They have nominated
Tom Petit in the Second district, a
member Of the present State legisla-
ture who was elected as a Peoples
party man last fall in a district that
usually gives from 1000 to 1000 Dem
