A BLOODY BATTLE
Between Rival Factions In the
ch0ctaw Nation.
THREE HUNDRED ENGAGED
Ten Reported Killed and Fif-
teen Wounded.

FORT SMITH, Ark, March GA fight
took place at Antlers, Choctaw nation,
between the Choctaw militia and the Jack
son faction. IL was reported at first that
20 men were killed and % wounded. Ant
lers Is l25 miles south of here.
The trouble is the outgrowth Of the cleo
tion last August for chief. In September,
before the council met, four Jones men
were assassinated by jackson men. When
the council met the United States militia
were there to preserve order. Jones was
declared chief
Twenty-Five men were arrested, charged
with the murders in September, and are
now in custody. Dick Lock, prominent
merchant of Antlers, was charged with
melting these murders, but was not ar
rested. The militia was sent out TO arrest
him and Others when their friends rallied
To their support and the result was the bat
tie. The militia attacked Locks party at
his residence, which was riddled with bull
lets. Every window was shot out
Lock had no objections TO being tried
but feared 10 allow himself To be arrested
by Jones' militia, and hence resisted He
stands high and has many friends.
Three hundred men took part In the
battle, each side having about $50 sup
porters. The latest dispatches say 10 were
killed and Is wounded United States
officers arrested 10 of the leaders of the
militia and took them to Paris, Tex All
is quiet at present.
Ii has just developed, states another dis
patch, that the number Of killed is greatly
exaggerated, and that four men were prob
ably fatally shot,

HEARING THE END.
Carriage Makers Strike Promises
to Be Of Short Duration.
ALARGE CONCERN GIVES IN.
Everything Points to a Speedy
Surrender by Others.

Boston, March 29.-Apparently the
backbone Of the carriage and wagon work
ers' strike has been broken, and it is now
only question Of few days before all of
the carriage and wagon manufacturers of
this city will concede to their men nine
hour workday. Yesterday the opponents
OF the shorter hours received setback
from which the workmen believe they will
not be able to recover when NJ. w. Quin-
Ian notified his employees that he would
grant the unions demands.
In the afternoon the largest carriage
manufacturer In Boston, after a three
hours conference with committee,
stated that he would grant the nine-hour
day and other demands of the Carriage and
Wagon Workers union.
In addition to this, one of the smaller
manufacturers visited the strikers head
quarters, and after making vigorous
speech In favor of shorter workday
stated that he would give his l2 employees
the shorter hours from today.
There was, as consequence, at least 372
carriage and wagon workers at work this
morning under the nine-hour rule.
One of the most notable and pleasant
icdtuits Vi tuis CoutTONersy IL tut absolute
lack of bitterness between the manufac.-
turers and their employees. Neither side
speaks of the action of the other in harsh
terms, and when work is resumed IL is safe
TO say that thsre will be no unpleasant ref
erences to the struggle.
Several rumors were circulated during
the day that other manufacturers had con-
ceded the unions demands, but no veri.
fication of them could be obtained. 1t is
stated on good authority however. that at
least two concerns are considering the ad-
advisabily Of coming to terms and resum-
ing business.
An informal conference was held by a
few of the carriage manufacturers, but no
formal action was taken. The strike was
discussed, but the carriage men said de-
cisive agreement would not be reached
until the meeting tonight.
The strikers held two meetings and con-
sidered the situation. They were addressed
by George Gunther of the Building Trades
council and Henry Al&ahams, secretary OF
the Boston Central Labor union. Both
speakers congratulated the men on the
success so far attending the strike and pre-
dicted an unqualified victory.

THE BUCHANAN TRIAL.
Evidence Introduced Tending To Show
the Doctors Troubled Mind.

Evidence introduced Tending to show
the Doctors Troubled Mind.
NEW YORK, March 29.-In the trial of
DR.. Buchanan charged with poisoning his
wife, Richard w. Macomber, one OF the
witnesses, told story of the troubled
mind of Buchanan and the exaggerated
view he took of the simplest things; how
the doctor coaxed him to 90 with him to
Greenwood TO see IL the officers of justice
had dug up the body Of his dead wife, and
how, as they approached the burial plot,
Buchanan started back In alright, and ex-
claimed: my God; they have been here
and dug her up"
And how, moment later, when the
troubled man discovered that the new
earth came from new grave, not from
that OF his wife, he was almost pitiful in
weak rejoicings. How .he engaged with
his lawyer TO hire man TO watch the
grave and give warning at the first ap-
proach Of the minions OF the law with
spade and shovel. How finally the doctor
got so nervous that he could not compose
himself at all and decided To fee How he
arranged with Macomber to telegraph to
him should the authorities exhume Anna
Sutherland Buchanan's body
Prosecutor Wellman spent six hours in
the direct examination of Macomber. Mr..
Brooks then cross-examined him until

EDISON PATENTS UPHELD.
Decision Which VIII Affect Many United
States Electric Companies

TRENTON, March 29-Judge Greene
OF the Federal court filed a very important
opinion in the case of the Edison Electric
company against Westinghouse, Church,
Kerr & Co, in which he upholds the Edi-
son patents. The suit was brought TO de
eide the question whether the device used
by the Trenton Electic Light company for
the distribution of the electric currentisan
infringement Of the Edison patent and the
court virtually declares that 1t is.
AS a result, companies all over the
United States which are using the system
illegally will have to stop Millions of
dollars are involved in these rights and
will accrue TO the Edison companies The
patent involved in this suit is dated Sept.
10, 1882, and is familiarly known as the
feeder and main patent"
The possession of this patent gives to the
Edison company practically the only
means of municipal lighting by incandes-
cent lamps, and the lighting of large
buildings or groups of buildings.
