SAN JOSE, March 1S.-This afternoon
James Pierce, watchman on James V.
Coleman's ranch, about ten miles from
this city, was shot in the side but not
seriously injured by Joseph Dubois,
crank, who occupied a cabin on the place.
Dubois has recently been acting
strangely. He boarded up the windows
of his cabin and barricaded the doors, as
II he feared an attack. Pierce wanted to
get some information from him about
some gates that had been left open, and
when Dubois refused to open the door
Pierce began tearing board from the
window. Instantly there came a shot
from within, and Pierce received flesh
wound under the left arm. He was
brought to San Jose and found not to be
seriously hurt. The insane inmate of the
cabin was captured by Sheriff Lyndon,
but not till he had caved in a door and
window. The prisoner made no resist
ance. and was brought to the County Jail
and locked up.

emergency men, those who were on leave
and away from the line whore they
worked escaped the extra duty, and it fell

Postal Employees Combine to Bring.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-The Post
Office Department has information of the
formation of powerful combination of
postal employees designed to bring pres
sure upon Congress to overturn certain
regulations and rules Of the department.
The employees have been encouraged by
success in attaching to the last Postoffice
appropriation bill an amendment which
suspended an order of the department..
This order was issued last June, and
directed that before the lst of May, 1895,
all railway mail employees should remove
to some point along the route on which
he was employed. This was unsatis-
factory to most of the clerks, and they
obtained legislation overruling the order

The Charges Against the Schooner
Wahlberg Dismissed.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 1S - The
charges against the schooner II. G.
Wahlberg, made by the Hawaiian Gov
ernment, are untenable, to the disap-
pointment OF the Hawaiian Government
officials. who were confident the United
States would prosecute the Captain and
seize the vessel on the evidence ad-
duced. A charge OF perjury will not lie
against Captain Martin, according to
District Attorney Eoote, and, according to
the decision of United States Judge Ross
in the Itata case, there was no breach of
the neutrality laws. The WahIberg
cleared on sea otter hunting cruise, and
in his manifest Captain Martin said he
had eight repeating rifles and the neces-
sary ammunition on board. IN his ALI
davit he promised to inform the Col
lector ii any additional arms or cargo
was taken on aboard on the first opDOr-
tunity. He took the rifles and ammuni-
ton on board at Sausalito, and inmedi-
ately sailed. The cargo was discharged
iuto small steamer OFT MolOlIai, and the
Wahlberg came back to California. She
was not in port from the time she lett
San Francisco until she reached San
Diego, and therefore no breach of tho
customs laws has been made. The
schooner will now be released and turned
over TO her owners.

MANAGUA (Nicaragua), March 1S.-Ths
British Government, through it's Minis
ter here, has submitted an ultimatum to
Nicaragua. 1t demands cash indem-
nifty OF el5,00O as smart money, to pay
for the expulsion of MIR. Hatch, British
consular agent, during the troubles of
last year, and also for the appointment of
a commission to Investigate the damages
sustained by the persons and property of
British subjects who were expelled from
the Mosquito reservation about the same
time. BY the terms OF the ultimatum
Great Britain is to name one of the Conn
missiOners and Nicaragua one, aud these
two to choose third, who shall not be q
citizen OF the United States. 1t was also
made known that British warship is
now on her way to Nicaragua to enforce
these demands, which must be complied
with within seven weeks from the 25th of
February last, the date OF the ultimatum.
NAY LEAD TO SERIOUS TROUBLE.
WASHINGTON, March lS.-it is i'm
possible to learn positively whether the
State Department has been advised Off
Cially of the severe demands made upon
Nicaragua by Great Britain, but from the
fact that General Barrios, who was APP
pointed by Nicaragua to endeavor to set
tie the difficulty, has recently paid sew
eral visits to the Stale Department III
company with DIR. Guzman, the resident
Nicaraguan Minister, it is assumed that
our own Government Is fully posted in
regard to the matter. 1t cannot be denied
that this new incident, taken in con4eC-
ton with the hostile attitude OF Great
Britain toward Venezuela, promises TO
lead to trouble of a character much more
serious than the incident OF the Alliance.
There are questions of indemnity arising
in Venezuela, growing out OF claims pre-
terred by other European nations.
Many OF the claims grow out of the
failure of these republics to meet their
obligations TO foreign debtors undor the
stress OF hard times ana the influence of
the world wide depression in trade AS
the European Governments appear to be
moving to collect these individual debts
on their own account, II is Il question that
the United States must speedily settle as
to how far it is prepared 10 permit this
process to go on. Beside, there is a rather
disasreeable reflection upon American
citiZens in the disputation that none such
shall serve on the commission to adjudge
the damage.
On the whole, it is probable that the
President will Interfere to secure at least
an ameiiOration Of the terms of the ulti-
matum by an appeal to the British Gov
ernmenJ representing the great hardship
that 1t would work to Nicaragua under
her present depressed condition to prefer
demand for so large an indemnity.

ATLANTA, March lS.-Delegates from a

Growers Association, with State Senator

lowing address was adopted:
80 tie Farmers Of Georgia: Realizing
the importance and necessity for con-
certed action OF all engaged in the grow
ing OF cotton Tor mutual protection, we,
the Cotton-GroWers' Protective Associa-
ton, IN convention assem- bled, do hereby
appeal not only to those engaged in
growing cotton, but ali interested in it,
tor their active cooperation in an effort
to better our condition. The imports
into Georgia exceed her exports, There
fore, there is an imperative necessity for
reducing our expenses of all kinds from
ton of grain to ball of potash. Spend
nothing that can be done without: our
home products are superior to any. We
would encourage the establishment of
factories OF all kinds, as by that means
their employees may become consumers
of our products. The contraction of the
currency may be relieved by system of
bartering between the farmer and the
merchant. We appeal to you to aid in
this effort.
''kirst, by the raising Of supplies of
every kind possible to be produced on
the farm for the sustenance of man and

Second, by making the cotton crop
surplus crop, intensifying its culture on
every line.
Third, by the use of homemade
fertilizers and the use of less CONNER
cial fertilizers.
In seeking your cooperation, we as
sure you that there are no fees, dues or
charges made tor mem mbership, and no
saiarIed officers, but each county is left to
pursue its own plan OF carrying out the

OMAHA, March 1S.-A special to the
Omaha Bee from Butte, Neb., says: Some
time Friday Mrs. w. T. Holton, re-
spectacle woman, residing alone on a
ranch in an isolated part of Keya Paha
County, was outraged and lynched. The
crime is credited to the vigilantes of the
district, who believed her in league with
cattle rustlers. Some think rust!ers COM
mitted the crime for revenge on account
of evidence furnished by the woman
against them.
Persons passing the ranch Saturday
found the body. and reported the matter
to-day. The Coroner found $50 on the
woman's person, which is regarded as
certain evidence that the crime was not
committed by tramps, as at first sup
posed.
Her struggle for life had been hard
one. The bedding and clothing OF the
woman were torn and scattered about the
| building. Her shoes had evidently been
removed. possibly by herself, preparatory
to going to bed, when surprised by the
lynchers. The woman had evidently
been outraged before she was strung up.
and everything points toward premedi-
| tated plan for the consummation OF the
das stardly deed.
No warrants have yet been made, but
meeting of citizens of the neigh borhood
was held yesterday, and it was decided
that prompt measures should be taken,
and it is expected that possibly several
hangings will take place before long.
Several persons are under suspicion, and
the parties will be taken and compelled
to confess.
The latest report comes that man
named Hunt is imOliCata0 in Soma Nyav
with the lynchers, and it is thought he
can be forced into a confession. A num-
! ber OF alleged rustlers were recently ar
rested anu taken to Springview, where
they broke jail aud escaped 10 the reserva-
tlon, where they were atterward secured
and convicted. The proximity of the
Indian reservation to this city makes it
possible that a United States Deputy
Marshal may have to make the arrests,
