The officers posted themselves it is

but more as each one Thought best.
Deputy Marshal Dawes took a posi-
ton southeast of the cabin about
sixty yards away behind small post
in the fence and about directly op-
posite the window. Deputy Sheriff
Calverly and City Marshal Taylor
took position on the side of the
hill north of the east front of the
building where they had a good
range on the door but where the out
laws could not shoot at them with
out coming outside.
Constable Stage went to the rear on
the hill overlooking the building and
got down in a small guile where he
could be protected.
All the positions were good except
that of Dawes, who was urged not to
go where he did but to go to the west
where he could have the range of
the window and be out of range of

the men inside the building unless
they exposed themselves.
Taylor, who went to the spring to
get a drink, caused the desperadoes
the door to take a shot at him, when
Calverly fired at him, the ball striking
his gun and causing him to retreat
hastily.
Just then Dawes evidently caught
sight of the men through the window,
because he opened fire and this at
tracted the attention of Coughlin and
George to him, and they commenced
firing at him through the window.
Dawes had to keep very close, because
the post in front of him was very
small and two good marksmen were
firing at him very fast. CalVerly and
Taylor could see Dawes and could see
the bullets striking all around him.
Dawes fired very deliberately, keeping
as close as possible. His aim was
good, as was afterwards discovered
from the marks of his balls through
the sides of the window.
Calverly and Taylor could see that
Dawes was in a close place and at
tempted to direct the fire from the
cabin by shooting through the side of
the building from the north. Their
balls crashed through all around in
range of the window on the south
but unfortunately, none of them took
effect where they would do the most
good. At last, as Dawes was loading
his gun for, the fourteenth shot, he
exposed his left shoulder, when in
stantly a ball from the cabin struck
him, going entirely through his body
him instantly. Calverly, who was
watching him. called out to Taylor,
"They have got Ed" and Taylor
glanced around just as Dawes rolled
over dead.
The two men in the cabin must
have sprang from the window imme-
diately after Dawes was killed, because
shot rang out from the rear of the
building and Taylor, who was watch
ing Stage, saw him fall dead Taylor,
who was short distance from
Calverly, saw Coughlin walk from
behind the building and called
out for him to look out and
almost instantly the desperate began
firing at them. One shot cut through
Taylor's coat collar, another struck
the front part of his coat and another
bruised Calverly's nose. Both Taylor
and Calverly returned the fire, when a
ball from Calverly's gun struck the
breach of Coughlin's gun, disabling it
and knocking Coughlin over. Taylor
and Calverly then only had one shell
each left and they thought best to re-
tire as they did not know where
George was Later he was seen back
of the hill just below where Stage was
killed
The two survivors made their way
back to Wasatch. as has been report
ed, leaving Coughlin and George in
possession of the field. They robbed
the bodies of Dawes and Stage of
their arms and ammunition and es-
capped. The trouble seems TO have
been in bringing on the engagement

best plan would have been to guard
the cabin and beseige the men until
they surrendered.

NEW YORK, July Ex-senator
Squire. of Washington, is in the city.
He was asked in al interview if he
mad heard any intimation from the
west about presidential candidates and
whom the west would favor. He said:
You know as much about that as l
DO. l could probably talk about west
ern favorites, but it would be idle TO

day whose names are on the tip Of

There is General Harrison; we all know
he drove the stage well at one time.
tn question is, Do we want him for
driver again? Then comes Thomas 3.
Reed; he viii hold the second place
in point Of favor. To be the unani-
NOUS choice of his colleagues in Con-
gress for the speakership is a great
thing. He is perhaps the best par
Humanitarian in the United States.
Then there is Morton; he is not

, son six years, and L have studied him

mckinley I admire. He Is perhaps
more sympathetic than any other of
the men. Chauncey Depew is brilliant
and we'll poised He has an accurate
and judicial mind and is popular. In
fact, there is not a man prominently
named about whom something nice
cannot be said. The only trouble is
we have the embarrassment of
riches. We have excellent timber, and
vet. as in war times, when the rail
splitter came to the front, the man
as yet unknown may be chosen and
may prove equal to our monumental
president The west, 1 think, has not
made any choice.
There is one thing I want you to
put me down as heartily in favor Of
that is, of holding the national conven-
zion in San Francisco l want the east.
through her representatives. to come
out and see our country. The east
stays within herself and never gets
away from its extreme localism.
some have said that had Columbus
discovered the Pacific coast there
would never have been any New Eng
land. The west Is like a young giant
Just awakened and stretching out his
srms to feel his strength. The west
wants to enter into better fellowship
with the east and that is a chance to
accomplish that end. If the conven-
ton was held there the railroads
would arrange to sell tickets so that
IN returning the tourists could pass
through Washington and Oregon. 1t
would be an admirable way of bring
ing the east and west together"

guments in the Taylor murder trial

the famous case being concluded to-
day This morning the state succeeded

MONTGOMERY, Ala, July 31.-
Colonel George w. Ely, of this city,
has gone TO Mexico as agent of the
Southern Pacific railroad company to
relieve the distressing situation of the
GA Alabama and Georgia negroes
camped along the line of the Mexican
Central railroad and return them to
Texas. The negroes were carried to
Mexico nearly a year ago by the Next
can Colonization company. The COM
pany obtained a concession of twenty
eight square miles of fertile lands in
the state of Durango. At first the COM
pany tried to settle the lands with
Mexicans but failed. A contract was
then made for several hundred negro
families. The negroes were to receive
half the product of the land and each
family was to be donated five acres
as a homestead. The negroes were al
lowed two years to pay for transporta-
ton. The negroes did not prosper in
Mexico, the Mexicans wanting to make
serfs out of them and the tales of
their sufferings have been aired

OMAHA, July 31.-The situation in
Omaha over the effort Of the a. P. A.
to get control of the police force is
hourly becoming more serious. Two
police forces viii be doing business in
the city within twenty-four hours-the
present force deriving authority from
the present police commission and
new force tonight under alleged
authority OF . new law which was
passed By the last legislature, to go in
effect al midnight. A collision is immi-
. nent. The a. Z. A. have organized and
h armed police force to do their bid
sdins. Walter Seeley, who was sent out
A2ver the state by the \. p. A. COM
blne. to feel the pulse of the state
militia, and to find out if they would
act in case they were called out by the
governor TO suppress trouble in Omaha,
returned tonight. He reports that the
soldiers did not give him much en-
courag cement, as they will neither re-
sign nor refuse to fight if ordered into
the field by the executive. His mis-
sion was to get designations to be pre-
scented only in the event OF call to
arms.
Church Home says that Tom Majors
has rendered his services 20 the A. p.
A to take command of the a. p. a
forces in Omaha on Thursday. Not
TO be behind his friend Majors Howe
has volunteered 60 assist Adjutant
General Barry.
The present police commission have
given out their utlimatum on the situa-
tion as follows:
= Believing the law passed by the
I-st legislature depriving us of the
offices TO which we have been duly ap-
pointed by the governor, who, under
the constitution, is alone clothed with
executive functions, and believing
furthermore that the act by which the
present board is proposed TO be abol-
ished, is null and void. we deem it our
duty 20 continue in the discharge of
the functions vested in us by the
charter under which the city of Omaha
is governed

rant keeper is a merchant within the

place of business. The applicant APP

lector, and pending the termination Of

cants are merchants, but that Chinese.
