Horrible Fate of . Young Woman In
WyominE.
A terrible accident recently occurred
on Upper Snake river, in the southern
part Of Carbon county, which resulted
in the death Of Miss Cora Gardner, the
daughter Of well known ranchman.
The young lady had gone out for a
horseback ride. About half an hour
after her departure the people Of the
ranch were Mortified on looking out to
see the horse galloping across the
plains dragging the inanimatc form OF
the girl feet foremost. The men ran
out and stopped the horse. Tho un.
fortunate young woman presented I
horrible sight. Her hair was torn
from her head, her back broken In two
places, one leg broken and her body
cut aud bruised from head TO foot. She
lived but fifteen minutes after bcing

lady had dismountcd from her horse
aud was holding II by the lariat rope,
one end Of which was attached to III,
horn Of the saddle, when the ANNA
was frightened at something and rar
away, the rope catching her foot in 1

W,sconsin Forest Fires Agsia Raging
Fifteen Citizens nj Phlllips
Lose Their Lives

Great destruction, privation and
loss Of life have resulted from forest
fires 10 Wisconsin. In Price county
the fires have been the worst. Several
towns have been almost entirely de-
stroyed and the losses have be i'm
mensc.
Phillips, a town Of 3, 900 inhabitants,
| is ono Of the chief sufferers. Fifteen
persons lost their lives. They had
fed from the town to q floating boat
house in the river. The heat drove
them from this into the water and
they were drowned. Several children
were among them.
The property loss cannot at this
time be accurately estimated but it
will reach at least 81, 1850, 900. The
immense plant Of John R. Davis Lum-
Der Company is total loss, amount.
ing to between $500, 900 and 5000, 600.
-Four gales Of fire following each
other as soon as ono had accomplished
its work Of destruction cut four
swaths through the city leaving stand
ing only the Lutheran church and
some dwellings near the southern
limits and frcakishly jumping over
the Worcester town hall and group
Of dwellings in the very heart Of tho
burned district.
A system of water works which
would ordinarily be ample protec-
ton against the blazing forests was
rendered useless by the burning Of
the pumping station in the first fire.
The volunteer fire department, con-
sisting Of thirty-four men, and having
1000 feet Of hose, had been working
two days in the swamp to the west Of
the city to prevent the flames coming
into the town.
A relief committee was organized
and relief headquarters established in
the Worcester town hall, and there
assembled fathers seeking information
as to the whereabouts of their families
and mothers with children crying with
hunger. Quick to respond were the
neighboring towns.
In almost no time provisions, con-
sisting Of bread, butter, coffee and
canned articles had been received from
Fifcld, Prentice, Dorchester, Medford
and Butternut.
A telegram was sent to the governor
asking him to send blankets and bread
In response to this the governor tele.

land.
Tuesday was another notable day in
the Senate. Senator Hill Of New
York, the ancient enemy Of Mr.. Clevo-
land spoke for two hours in defense Of
the Presidents attitude on the tariff
bill. He attacked German, Vest,
Jones and Harris with keen thrusts Of
wit as we'll as solid argument. Several
times the presiding officer was unable
to restrain the enthusiasm his remarks
evoked, notably when Mr.. Hill de-
clared that personal considerations
would not prevent him from defending
the President when he was unjustly
attacked. He defended Mr.. Clevo-
lands letter, his right to send it and
the sentiments 1t contained, and made
strong protest against his adversaries
when he pointed out that they criti-
cised tho President for siding with the
House, when they admitted they had
used all their influence to induce him
to interpose in behalf Of the Senate
amendments to the tariff bill.
Mr.. German the day before had COM
pared Mr.. Hill to Iago. In return
Mr.. Hill likened those who had Joined
in the assault on Mr.. Cleveland to tho
conspirators who stabbed Caesar to
death at the foot Of Pompeii's statue
in the Roman Senate. Mr.. German,
he characterized as tho lean and hun
CRY Cassius; Mr.. Jones, Marcus Bru-
tus, the honest Brutus Of the Senate;
Mr.. Vest, who struck the first blow on
Friday, as Casca; Mr.. Voorhees,, as
Trcbonius, ''testy but earnest" and
Mr.. Harris as Metellus Climber. They
had struck down the President, Mr..
Hill said, not that they loved Mr..
Cleveland less, but that they loved the
Senate compromise more.
And yet" he concluded, and each
word rang out like hammer on an an.

RIOT At Las VEGAS.

GATED statss Troops called Upon to Pro.
tsct OHicers.
There was an incipient riot at Las
Vegas on the night Of the 26th, which
but for the presence Of federal soldiers
might have been much more serious
than it was.
According to special dispatch to
the Denver Republican the trouble was
the result Of an attempt to arrest a
desperate Mexican named Jose Gale
gos, who was wanted for participating
in lynching four months ago. Gal
legos resisted and was fatally shot by
VIM. Green, the deputy sheriff.
This instance aroused the Mexican
people Of the old town for revenge,
and at 8 o'clock Thursday night, sew
eral Of them, armed with warrant,
entered Green's house on Bridge street,
and were met by Ely Green, a brother
Of the man they were seeking, While
he was parleying with the officers his
brother entered and was Immediately
fired upon by one Of the belligcrent
parties. This was the signal for a
general fusilade, in which Ely and
Billy Green poured lead from their
Winchcsters with deadly effect. When
the crowd retreated it was found that
Juan Sandoval was dead and several
escaped with wounds Of serious ma
ture.
The sheriff then made his appearance
aud demanded that the Green boys
surrender, which they refused to do,
on account Of knowing the uncertainty
of safety at the hands Of the Next
cans.
City Marshal Clay commanded the
use Of the telephone to call upon the
United States troops stationed at East
Las Vegas, and the call was responded
to on double quick by Lieutenant
Crawford and detachment Of the
Tenth infantry.
With fixed bayonets they quickly
surrounded the besieged house, and
after a spirited consultation with the
Greens, now heavily armed, the agree
ment was arrived at to take the Green
brothers to military headquarters until
safety could be assured.
The Mexicans were much excited
and further violence is feared.
The excitement had abated Friday
and the Greens were turned over to
the civil authorities.

A meeting Of the citizens and bust
ness men Of Laramie has been held for
the purpose Of considering the condi-
lions growing out Of the strike. 1t
was unanimously resolved to appoint y
committee to prepare an address to
Judge Riner setting forth the facts
that no disrespect for the court or its
officers has been shown BY the men,
who perhaps from a mistaken senti-
ment Of loyalty to and sympathy for
their fellow workingmen and duty to
their organizations had become in
volved in the present strike and con-
sequently lost their positions. 1t Is
desired to show to the court that
nearly all the men at that place are
respected residents Of the city, whose
families and homes are there, aud it is
felt that to throw such men out Of en-
ployment would be working great
hardship and injustice to them and
their families and serious injury to
the town.
