AN INDIAN SCARE.
Navajos Brighten Ranchers and Cowboys
In New Mexico.

In New Mexico.
DENVER, Feb. TO- A dispatch re-
ceived this afternoon from New Mexico
stating that the Navajo Indians had
gone on the war path, and that battle
was in progress near Albuquerque,
created great excitement. Later ad-
vices show that the first reports were
exaggerated. A dispatch from Coolidge,
N. M, tonight, says the trouble is be-
tween Navajos and cattle men, and was
caused by renegade Indians killing cat
tie. Chief Mariana was requested
about ten days ago to remove
these Indians. This was granted,
but Tuesday three Indians were found
coming down the trail toward Chavaez,
and the cowboys ordered them back.
They started back, and on the bluffs
built signal fires. Soon forty renegade
Indians came to their assistance, in de-
fance of the cowboys warning not to
trespass. There were no cowboys at
Chavaez at the time, but the Indians
claimed that their deserted camp had
been burned by cowboys and they were
going to get even.
San Antonio ranch, occupied by a cat
tleman named Coddington, and they
left Chavaez, going in that direction.
Harry Cody, his mother and two men
were at the ranch. They were greatly
terrified when the Indians rode up and
began yelling and shooting indiscrimin-
ately. No one was hurt, and the Indi-
ans, apparently satisfied with having
scared the people, rode away. Harry
Cody at once mounted pony and rode
sixteen miles to Coolidge for assistance.
Fifteen armed cowboys Immediately
left for the ranch, which is sixteen miles
distant. arriving at p. M, but all was
quiet. The cowboys remained at the
ranch until noon today, but could dis
cover no Indians. Lieutenant Wallace
of the Second cavalry and twenty men
froml Fort Wingate, with pack mules,
passed Coolidge this evening, on their
way to San Antonio ranch, with orders
to remain there several days and be
ready to quell any hostilities on the part
of the Indians. This evening every
thing is quiet at and in the vicinity of
Chavaez.
ALBUQUERQUE, N. M, Feb. 10.-A
courier from White Oaks, N. NJ, says
the Mescallero Indians, on the reserya-
tion near there, obtained a quantity of
whiskey and indulged init. Then they
got to fighting among themselves. Re
volvers and knives were brought into
action, and the result was the killing of
four bucks and one squaw. Two Indi-
ans, the only participants in the fight
who were not killed, were placed in the
guard house.

A MIGHTY comB1NAr1oN.
Coal Producing and Carrying Interestss
Pool for Profit.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 10.-It is an
nounced today that the arrangements
which for some time had been in pro-
gress, designed to place the coal produc-
ing and carrying interests on more
stable foundation, have been completed.
The primary object was to secure more
economical management in the coal
trade, by avoiding expensive agencies,
etc. The plan formed by President
Mcleod embraces the most extensive
financial enterprise yet undertaken in
this country. Briefly outlined it means
that the Reading road has acquired
practical control of the Lehigh
Valley railway, the Central railway
of New Jersey and other lines, and in
addition to the Reading Terminal, now
constructing in Philadelphia, will have
the magnificent terminals of the Lehigh
Valley and Jersey Central in New York
harbor. Through the Lehigh Valleys
new western extension there will be
provided direct route to the lakes at
Buffalo, with 8 spacious terminal there.
In the carrying on of the coal trade the
saving in commissions, agency expenses,
etc, is expected to reach several million
dollars annually. When 1t is further
known that the control of the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western has passed
into hands friendly to the Read
ing, the investing public will recognize
that the new arrangements will tend
to secure harmony in the coal trade and
save unnecessary expenses. The Lehigh
Valley also is paying the Erie 81 ,250,000
annually for ,rackage, which amount
will now be a net gain to the Lehigh
Valley. In addition to this, a vast
amount OF traffic will be thrown to it.
This coup OF President Mcleod is con-
sidered one of the greatest in the history
of railroad financiering, and makes the
Reading as strong corporation as there
is in the world. The plan is approved
by Messrs. Drexel, Welsh and others.

CHOKED TO DEATH.
Four Anarchists Garroted for Rioting at
Xeres, Spain.


Four Anarchists Garroted for Rioting at
Xeres, Spain.
MADRID, Feb. 10.--Four leaders of the
anarchists who made the recent attack
upon the town of Heres were garroted
today. The platform on which the men
were executed was surrounded by de-
tachments of infantry and cavalry, and
the route from the Jail to the platform
was lined with soldiers with loaded
rifles. The executions were public, and
the plaza and the streets leading to it
were packed with dense mass of
people.
The namo5 of the four men executed
were Busigni, Zarzetella, La Mala and
Lebrijano. When the prisoners mounted
the scaffold they were accompanied by
four executioners and by priests
and monks. Zarzetella was very
much excited, and his demeanor
showed that he was terribly frightened
but the other three culprits were calm
end resigned. The condemned men
were led to chairs, in which the execu,
TONERS securely bound them. Metal
collars were then placed about their
necks. Then each executioner took his
position at the back of the posts and
grasped the powerful levers operating
the garrote. AT given signal each
executioner gave sharp turn to the
lever, and each of the condemned men
died instantly.
After the executions, though the spec
tators, many of whom were friends OF
the men executed, were bitter in their
denunciation of the authorities, there
was no sign of any disturbance, and
everything in the town was tranquil.
One OF the executed anarchists left
Madrid, in which he said the anarchist
press takes advantage of the ignorance
of the working classes. to inculcate
theories against justice and reason. He
desired his comrades to know that the
anarchist journals had been deceiying
them, and was convinced that many OF
those preaching doctrines to them are
perfectly Indifferent as to their fate. He
advised his comrades to repudiate their
teachers and be honest workers, with
faith in God and religion.
A collision occurred today between
anarchists and police in Barcelona. A
number of revolver shots were ex-
changed.

Associated Press Dispatches.


SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 10. = Marion
Hedspeth, who is wanted in st. Louis
for connection with the Glendale, Mo-,
train robbery, was arrested at the point
OF pistol at the postoffice here today by
Captain Lees and detail of detectives.
Hedspeth was taken to Lees Office,
where two revolvers, roll of green
backs aggregating $500, 5000 in gold,
and number of diamond rings and
other jewelry were found on him.
Hedspeth took his arrest good naturedly
and said he was willing to return to st.
Louis without requisition papers.
The detectives had information that
Hedspeth was in town, and suspectine
that he was in communication with
friends in the east, determined to lay in
wait for him at the postofice and sur
prise him when he called for his mail.
The watch was kept up for weeks, but il
was not until today that he put in
an appearance, when he walked down
Washington street and turned into the
postoffice. Detective Byram was stand
ing on Washington street, and followed
him in. He did nothing till Hedspeth
had mounted the stairs and was about
to cross the threshold leading to the
hall upon which the delivery windows
face. In recess near the place Detect
ives Lees and Silvey and Policemen
Campbell and Cody were stationed. AT
signal from Lees, Byram grasped
Hedspeth from behind and pinned his
arms TO his sides. The other officers
then presented their pistols and pointed
them at Hedapeth, Captain Lees re-
marking: "Take your hands out OF
your pockets or I'll kill you."
Hedspeth obeyed reluctatly, and was
hurried into room in the postoffice,
whence he was taken to police head
quarters. Hedspeth was consigned to
cell in the new prison and a special
watch was set on him.
81 gave the police hot chase" he
said, ''and to tell the truth, did not
expect to be taken in"
"Where were you when your wife was
arrested?" was asked.
ST was at 772 Tenth street, Oakland,
at the time. She is innocent OF any
crime and should not have been arrested
and have no doubt she will 60 free in
a short time"
"Were you in concealment most of the
time"
"No; on the other hand, I have at
tended the theaters and gone around to
public places, and have made no special
endeavor to avoid arrest"
II regard Hedspeth as one of the most
dangerous criminals in the United
States" said Captain Lees, ''and feel
thankful that he was taken without a
fight. His wife and Sly warned us to
be careful, or he would kill some one.
When Byram clutched him he had a
pistol in each hand in his overcoat
pocket. Since he has been in California
Hedspeth has committed number of
crimes, and he is suspected of having
broken open number of safes in Oak
land"
ST. LOUIS, Feb. 10.-Chief of Police
Harrigan has received dispatch from
San Francisco, notifying him that Ma
rion Hedspeth, the Glendale, Mo-. ex-
press robber, was arrested, and will be
sent to st. Louis at once.

with lye from the San Francisco candle
works near by. The stuff burned into
the unfortunate mans flesh. Whelan's
cries of agony attracted the attention of
several workmen at the candle works,
and with considerable difficulty they
hauled him out. He was conveyed to
the receiving hospital, and when laid
out on the operating table he presented
most pitiable sight. His whole body
was frightfully burned. His intense
suffering caused him to become almost
insane, and the hospital attendants
found it necessary to strap him to the
cot to prevent him from injuring him
self. At O'Clock this afternoon death
ended his suffering, and the remains
were sent to the morgue.

CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY.
An Arrest Growing Out of the Daniels
Church S1ander Suit.


Church Slander Suit.
STOCKTON, CAL, Feb. 10.-E. P. Dan
iels OF this city was arrested teday on an
Indictment returned by the Fresno grand
jury for criminal conspiracy. He imme-
diately gave bail for $500, and was re-
leased from custody. 1t is said that one
Joseph Hutchings OF Stanislaus county
is also charged with the same offense.
The charge of conspiracy made against
the two men is the direct result OF a
civil suit brought here few months
ago, in which Miss Zua Daniels, daugh-
ter of E. P. Daniels, got a
verdict for $4,000 damages against
w. j. Church, a wealthy
land and ditch owner of Fresno county.
She sued for SANDER, charging the aged
defendant with having uttered false and
slanderous words concerning Joseph
Hutchings, who was the manager of
Church's Lanes Springs property in
Stanislaus county. Mr.. Daniels was at
one time in the employ OF Church at
Fresno, and was local preacher there.
He said today that son of Church
came here recently and offered $1,000 to
compromise the case, but Miss Daniels
refused to accept. Daniels claims that
the present charge is brought in re-
venge for the refusal.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10. - Secretary
Blaine had conference with the presi-
dent this morning in regard to trade re-
lations with Canada. AS he was
leaving the White House repre-
sentative of the Associated Press
showed him the published statement
that he was about to retire from the

said with deliberation cit is entirely
false. There is not word of truth in it.
These stories are being circulated by
idle persons who have nothing better to
do, and ask you to deny them in the
most positive terms. This statement is
an internal lie!"
When questioned as to other rumored
changes in the cabinet Blaine said: 81

suppose these rumors were started by
the same men who set ahoat the one

SINGING A DoLEFUL TUNE.
A Score of Wealthy Jewellers SwindIed
Out of a Large Sum.

NEW YORK, Feb. 10.--A score of
jewellers who have stores in Maiden
lane are singing tune which is not at
all to their liking. The first line tells
part of their story, and is: "We have
been swindled out of $4,000 worth of
loose diamonds and from $4,000 to
$1O0, 900 worth OF miscellaneous jewelry."
A more indignant lot of merchants
would be hard to find. Substantially it
is the old story of q firm building up
fair credit, buying stock heavily on time
and then suspending by the mysterious
Disappearance of the assets and books.
This is what the suspended firm of d.
Gunndling & Coax, jewelry, As Maiden
lane, are accused OF doing. Late yes

senior member of the firm, was arrested
and lodged in Ludlow-street jail, where
he remains in default of $4,000 bail.
