WAR IN ROUND VALLEY.
A Battle Between the Vinton
and Palmer Factions
Expected.
NEW STORY OF THE TRAGEDY
Friends of the Mob's Victim Claim
That He Fired in Self
Defense.

UKIAH, CAL, Oct. 2.-The Littlefield-
Vinton affair in Round Valley is not yet
at an end. The body of Littlefeld, the
victim of the lynching, was cut down by
George Cummings, the Covelo Constable,
on Saturday. The following day Yes
Palmer, in whose employ Littlefeld was,
went after the body to give it burial.
Palmer had with him several of his range
riders. Near the scene OF the Iynching
they encountered some of Vinton's cow
boys, but at that time no hostile action
was manifested by either party.
Later reports are to the effect that Vim
toms friends left in pursuit OF Palmer and
his party, and hostilities are expected to
commence shortly. If they meet pitched
battle will be the result.
Since the first reports of the affair senti-
ment has changed regarding the matter
and it now appears that 1t was the result
Of bitter feud between the Vinton and
Palmer ranches. 1t is claimed by those
who are in a position to know that Little
field was alone in the Mad River country
gathering stock when he ran across Vinton
and hot words passed between them. 1t

WHIPPED HER HUSBAND.
Margaret Mather Figures in a
New and Sensational
Role.
Colonel Pabst Belabored by the Ex-
Actress on a Street of
Milwaukee.

NEW YORK, N Y, Oct. "A Herald
special from Milwaukee says:
The entire city is talking tonight about
a street affray which occurred this after
noon between Colonel Gustav g. Pabst
and his wife, who was formerly Margaret
Mather, the actress.
The residents in the neighborhood of
State and Twenty-seventh streets noticed
man and woman driving by in covered
buggy shortly after noon to-day, and were
startled the next minute to see the woman
seize the whip and strike her companion
across the face. Her companion made no
resistance, but turned and jumped out of
the buggy. Then it was seen that he was
Colonel Pabst, son of the millionaire
brewer.
Pabst walked down State street. 1t was
his wife who had struck the blow.
Mrs. Pabst followed her husband as he
turned into Twenty-fourth street. When
she reached him she struck him four times
on the face with the whip, which she still
carried, and her husband wrenched it from
her and threw it into the street.
Mrs. Pabst was not content with this,
for she doubled up her fist and struck the
colonel squarely in the face. He then
spoke to her in low tone, and the pair
turned and went to their house together
The assault was witnessed by several
persons, but no one could tell what was
the cause of the trouble, as there has been
no rumors that the pair had not been
living happily together. Miss Mather has
not been on the stage since her marriage,
but stories were current tonight that she
intended to go behind the footllghts again.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. 2.-The
United States armored cruiser Brooklyn

OF noise furnished by shrieking steam

spectators.
Shortly after 1 o'clock the signal was
given and the big vessel started down the
ways. As she began to move Miss Schieren,
daughter of the Mayor of Brooklyn,
smashed the bottle of champagne against
the red hull and christened the vessel the
Brooklyn. The vessel slipped smoothly
into the river, and great cheer went up
from the multitude. The big handsome
cruiser fioated hundred yards or so out,
and then two anchors wore let GO from her
bows, and she came to stop and swung
slowly around with the tide.

PARIS, FRANCE, Oct. 2.---The body of
Professor Louis Pasteur was. placed in a
coffin at his late residence at: Garches
yesterday afternoon. The funeral party
proceeded to Paris by way ofSt. Cloud.
An immense crowd gathered along the
rue du Tot and silently awaited the arrival
of the cortege, and as the horses and car
riages passed along all heads were bared.
President Faure signed decree ordain-
ing that NJ Pasteur's obsequies should
be of national character. For the pur-
pose of lessening the pomp and ostenta-
ton of the ceremonies attendant on the
interment of NJ. Pasteur, his family de-
cided that the body shall remain in the
temporary vault at Notre Dame.

is very likely that Littleield itsd in self
defense.
Others go so far as to assert that the
Round Valley Constables pretended to ar
rest Littlefeld, but in reality aided in his
lynching by the Vinton range riders.
Color is lent to this theory by the fact that
the Constables were witness in behalf of
Vinton, the prosecuting witness, and
against Palmer in the trial of Palmer for
grand larceny at the July term of court.
The truth of the matter will likly never
be learned, as all the witnesses of the
tragedy were Vinton men. Littleields
father is an inmate of the County Farm.
Littlefield was determined man and had
little to say, but was a good shot and
very jealous of the rights of his employer

following dispatch from Minister Terrell
at Constantinople:

Otsey, Washington: Monday several hun
dred Armenians marched on the Porte, pro-
fessedly to ask redress for grievances. The Pa
triarch tried to prevent it, A conflict occurred
between the Armenians and the police. Prob
ably about sixty Turks and ArI2enians were
killed, among others a Turkish major, and
many were wounded.
The Armeniaus carried pistols. Yesterday
several more were killed. Last night there
were eight killed. Several hundred have been
Imprisoned. The Porte had notice of the
demonstration, which it is said was organized
by the leaders of the Hunschagist revolution
lists, whom they have captured. Much terror
exists. I think the Porte will be able to re-
strain fanaticism. TERRELL.
