LOST MILLIONS OF ACRES.
Abandonment Of u Vast Entcrprise In
Lower California.


iyatc advlccs from London state author-
tatiyely that The English syndicate Of which
Sir Edward Jenikson, X. G. b., Is president,
called the Mexican Land and Colonization
Company, has decided TO abandon Its vast
enterprise In Lower California, allowing u
concession Of 49, O0, 900 acres OF fertile land
to lapse TO the Mexican government. This
syndicate, composed OF wealthy London land
owners, lent several hundred thousand dol
lars to the original corccssionaircs, taking
assignment Of the vast land franchise. To
hold the land 1t was only necessary 10 build
railway from San Quentin, Lower CALI
fornia, to Yuma, Arizona, 800 miles
Part Of this was built aud the whole route
was surveyed. An irrigation system was
planned aud considerable land was sold.
The good steel rails are covered with grass
aud the construction locomotives are rustipg
away.
An officer Of the syndicate now In San
Francisco, says that the road would have
been completed, though the cost would have
been heavy. but for the Barring failure. The
concession thus thrown array -yas- 10 haze
been principally with an AUTONOMOUS gov.
eminent, and there was mort than mere
runor In the recent story that II was to nf.
ford England another naval station on tho
Pacific. II Ia reported that c. r. Huntington
Intends 70 take up the grea enterprise.

The Chamber Of Deputies was the scene Of
the greatest excitement on the Goth owing TO
the request Of the government that permission
b granted for the prosecution Of number Of
nembsrs including N. Rouvisr, ex-minister
Of finance, and N. Jules Roche, ex.minister of
commerce. The permission WA granted af-
ter scene Of the widest confusion, In which
N. Clemenceau and others hurled insults back
and forth. The immediate result will be sew
ersl duels.
| The people arc profoundly stirred BY the
Developments 80 far made and It 10 hard to
tell whcrc the matter will end.
The Paris correspondent of the London
Times says: Tuesdays sensation eclpses all
previous Developments In the Panama canal
affair M. Rouvier, In spite Of the eloquence
OF bis opening words, gave away his case in a
strange fashion. NJ. Clemenceau's defense of
NJ. Herr was one Of the hnest speeches heard
during the present crisis. What 10 now oc-
curing 10, however, merely Z prelude. All
French history proves that such periods of
trouble arc precursors Of revolution.
$50 far the streets are quiet, but the silence
warrants distrust. The semblance of force
displayed by the government Is simply the re-
suit Of weakness. A strong government
never would have submitted to the dictates Of
It's worst enemies Those trying to seize

uties, As we'll ~ civilians, connected with the
Panama scandal have had II intimated to
them that their salvation lies In an es-
pousal Of royalist schemes and that all Of
their offenses will be condoned II they will
consent TO betray the republic. Some conf
dence Ia placed by well Informed people In
both these rumors and It is apparent that
royal agents have assumed IN activity they
had not displayed for years, and there is also
evidence that royallst money is again shoat.
Should affairs take turn favorable to n
coup d'etat In behalf of royalty, 1t is proba-
BILE, according to current report, that the
young Duke Of Orleans would be selected to
lead the attack. The young duke is more
popular than any other member Of his family,
and his offer to serve In tho army as \ con-
script until he became Of age made a good
impression. The difficulty in the way of a
royalist coup Is that there are no signs Of dis
loyalty In the army. VI. De Freycinet, the
minister OF war, is untouched by the scandals
that have touched bis colleague, Rouvier, and
he has the devoted and loyal attachment of
the generals 10 higher command.
AT present the ulonarchIsts seem 10 he d.
rccting their efforts chiefly to fam ing the ex.
element among the deputies and sowing the
seeds Of Jealousy, fear and suspicion. They
! arc apparently confident that the breakdown
Of the RIbot ministry would be followed by a
revolution with all It's opportunities for re-
turning Of the house Of Orleans to power.

The ncws has Just reached Cheyenne OF .
wholesale killing near Hyattvillc, on tho Big
Horn basin, In johnson county. Il appears
that q man named jim Hun, deputy United
States marshal, accompanied by Bill Nut
cher, started out to arrest some suspected cat
tie rustlers. The two men were quietly riding
along the east side Of the Big Horn when they
came upon the men they were In search Of. A
battle WIS at once begun between them, both
sides being well armed with Winchesters and
revolvcrs. Three Of the supposed rustlers
were killed before the deadly fire Of their
friends had wiped Hun and Nutcher out Of
existence. 1t has been impossible to get tho
names Of the other three men who were killed
In the fight.
The following day . posse Of citizens, en-
ragged at constant thcfts of their stock, werc
In pursuit Of Asa Shuck and Ira Walker,
whom they suspected of being the deprcdA-
tors. Al the head Of the No Wood, In john
son county, they came upon their men and
Immediately opened fire, killing both men In
stantly. They had in their possession Mt the
time Of their death about seventy-hve head Of
stolen horses.
Hun, Nutcher, Walker and shuck are all
notorious characters. Ira Walker killed
Hank Lovett near Shell creek several months
ago. Walker shot him when he Was approach
Ing the house. When tried at the recent term
Of court In johnson county the plea Of self
defense was urged. No person had any doubt
Of his guilt, but looked upon the killing COM
placently because the country was freed Of .
bad character, and Walker was, consequently
acquitted.
The Big Horn basin, where tho trouble oc-
CURED, Is situated near the Yellowstone park,
and almost impossible Of access from the
south during the winter. Hyattville, the
scene Of the trouble, Il ninety mIlea from
