HAR AGAINST A Tx LEVY.
PEOPLE OF TWO KENTUCKY

Determined to Resist With Their Lives
the Collection of Taxes for Railroad
That Was Never BuIIt-Caunons

and Large Supplies OF Am
munition on the Scene.

MORGANFIELD, Ky, Sept. 26.-Cap-
cain Blackwell and his posse of tax
collectors decided yesterday not to
attempt to fight the well-armed peo-
pie at Indie and CaseyvilIe town
ships He said last night: 81 decided
to postpone matters until 1 can see
more men. 1 have just received a
telegram from an ex-United States
marshal, who lives in Louisville, stat
ing that he was ready to join my com
mand. There are ,, 600 men
in Henderson who will enlist when
summoned. 1 do not wish to
make war on these people, but
will take a sufficient force down there
to cut my way out should be forced
to, and also to enforce the law. The
tax will be collected. If I am unsuc-
cessful the militia will be called out,
and If II is not able to handle them,
then United States troops will be
called on. General A. j. Preston,
who lives at Davenport, Iowa, holds
the bonds He brought them from q
New York brokerage firm who acted
for General Preston, and he author
ICES me to make the first proposition
he has yet made the people. He says
for them to pay the levy I am about
to make, amounting to 500. 600, and ne
will settle the balance in bonds at
four per cent, due in twenty, forty
and sixty years. This is all he Will
do. He was an innocent purchaser.
He says that the people were de-
frauded, but that it is not his fault.
General Preston is determined to have
his money. I will move my men into
the contested county, but refuse to
state when. It Will not do for me to
give my plans away"
More arms are arriving in Casey
vile by every train, and the people
are more determined than ever to re-
sist the invasion of Captain Blac'1-
well. He IS expected to march into
the precincts tomorrow morning with
500 men, all heavily armed.
The proposition of General Preston,
as outlined by Captain Blackwell was
rejected by the people, who say they
will reimburse Preston for the actual
cost of the bonds to him, $50, 900. and
give him 6 per cent interest. The
levy Blackwell will make calls for
per cent of the property in CaseyvilIc
and Il per cent of that in Indie pre-
cincts. The people say that they
will have to sell out to make the frs
payment, and that as they have bee
victimized they will not become pen
niless to keep 4 rich man from loss 1t
the expense of their families.
All of the best people are up in
arms and it is reported that they
have large cannon and 1000 Win

RLooDsHED IN KENTUCKY.
Desha breckenridge Stabs James D. Liv-
ingstOn-BareIy Misses His Heart.

LEXINGTON, Ky, Sept. 24.-Desha
Breckenridge had 4 sensational alter
cation with james Duane Livingston,
formerly OF New York city, in the
Phoenix hotel at $50 last evening.
Livingston was standing in the news
and cigar stand reading an afternoon
paper when Desha Breckenridge came
in and bought a package of cigarettes.
Livingston spoke to Desha and ex-
tended his hand, saying, 1T is all
over now, we ought to be friends
Shake hands"
Breckenridge, with an angry look
on his face, replied, No, you one
horse scoundre1, I will not take your
hand. You profess to be a mans
friend and then stab him in the back"
Livingston replied to this by saying
that he had done nothing OF the kind,
when breckenridge called him a -
liar. Then Livingston struck at
Desha and knocked his glasses off,
following this up with a blow on the
neck Desha reached for his hip
pocket and instantly flashed in the
air long, bright blade of a big dirk.
Both men were pale as death. Liv-
ingstOn, in a moment of desperation,
breckenridge had aimed at his heart.
The knife went between the second
and third fingers of Livingston's
right hand, cutting the third finger
to the bone The cold steel sent
shudder through Livingston's frame,
and he CRASHED his right hand with
his left in order to stop the terrible
flow of blood that was dyeing the til
ing of the lobby. Desha Breekin-
ridge seemed to desire no mere blood
and gave Livingston two strong
kicks. The hotel clerks and several
bystanders rushed in and seized
Breckenridge, and at the same instant
Matt Lane, a strong Breckenridge
man, ran up and said he would take
a hand in helping Desha.
Two witnesses say that Lane also
fourished a big knife, but Lane
denies this. Livingston was hurried
into the wash room where his wounds
were bathed, and he was then taken
to the Office of a physician, where his
hand was dressed. A friend then took
Livingston home in a buggy, and
Desha Breckenridge went to his rooms
across the street
Matt Lane and Desha also violently
threatened and abusiveIy tainted
