Congressman Barrett, of Massa-

impeachment of Ambassador Bay

unpatriOtic speeches in England as
published in the London News Nov.

lied his countrymen as ga violent
people who sought real man to
govern them" Such views may be
in harmony with those of the Eng

pie as turbulent, ana imagine that
popular government is necessarily
so, and requires a strong man to sit

APACHES ARE ANGRY
THEY ARE REPORTED AGAIN ON THE
wARPATH IN ARIZONA

Soldiers and Cowboys on the Trar-A
Running Fight Near Duncan -Four
White Men Killed In the NeIehborhood
of Abandoned Fort Thomas.
PHFN1x. A. T., Dec. 7.-The Apaches
have broken out again. This cannot be
denied any longer.
Last Thursday morning, when Mr.
Morrill, and his daughter were found muir
dered near Ash Springs, with tracks of
Indians all around their bodies, the peo-
pie Of Gila valley were all but panic strick-
en-, for they were certain that the meroi-
less Apaohes had again taken the war
path. The tracks were followed TO point
near Duncan, and soldiers and cowboys
are now scattered all through the Gila
valley in tho hope Of coming upon the
murderers
Ash Springs is about half way between
Solomonville and Duncan, in Graham
county. Duncan Is east Of the springs
The Indians travelled toward the settle
ment Of the upper Gila valley from the
scene Of the murder and had about IA
hours start before the discovery was
made The posse followed the trail in the
STEMS Peak range by way of the Horse
shoe canyon, favorte place in the past
for the Apaohes to flee to when pursued
after their raids and where many a pros
peotor and ranger has been ambushed.
Bodies Of Four Men Found.
Following this comes another report
from the lips of J. S. Bush, commission
merchant Of this city. He states that he
was at Lordsburg, N. M, which is only
16 miles from STEMS pass, and that
he saw telegram notifying the people
there that the bodies of four more white
men had been found in the lower Gila
valley, near the San Carlos reservation
line and in the immediate neighborhood
of Fort Thomas, which was abandoned
not long ago by order Of the war depart
ment against the entreaties of the people
Of that section.
1t Is fully As miles from Ash Springs to
Fort Thomas in a westerly direction.
This fact preoludes any presumption that
the band that killed the Morrills are the
| ones that murdered the four men. Hence
in the absence of knowledge to the con-
trary, this appears to be an outbreak of a
much larger number of Apaohes than any
one is willing to admit.
Mr.. Bush says that the people in that
section are flying to arms and are terribly
wrought up. Large bodies Of men are
securing the San Simon and Plaza val
| leys. The troops from the posts of Grant,
Huchuaoa and Bayard have taken the
field.
| Yesterday there was a running fight be-
tween tho Indians and cowboys in the
| vicinity of Duncan and it is reported here
that several of the Indians were wounded,
but how many is not known. Information
to this effect was received here.
The cowboys are wild over the recent
outrages, and they are determined to pur-
sue the Indians as long as the trail is in a
condition to be followed.

found a pile OF rubbish in flames,
From McMane's building the fire ex-
tended to Vorwald g. Princes shoe store,
Noden's stationery store, Hatoh's phar-
macy and Myers dry goods store.
By this time every man in the town
was awake'and was doing everything in
his power to help the flremen in their eff
forts TO subdue the flames. Bucket bri-
gades were formed, and from hand to hand
went the water to fight the fire
The greatest pains were directed to saw
ing MoMane's building. The officers Of
the bank were on hand, and with work as
well as word did all they could.
The other places, which we're small, one
story affairs, went up like so much tin
ter, and their contents were destroyed al
together.
One member of the volunteer force was
struck by a falling beam, and when he
was picked up, it was found that two ribs
had been fractured. He was taken to his
home, and physician was called from the
scene Of the fire to care for him.

They had great difficulty in escaping,
some Of them being forced 20 rush out in

injury, but they lost all their property.
The Passaio firemen reached Ruther-

and soon thereafter the fire was under
control.
The loss is estimated at fully $3.50, 600.

A Grent Farm.

The largest farm in this country
and probably in the world, is situated
in the southwestern part OF Louisa,
ana. 1t extends 100 miles north and
south and % miles east and west. 1t
was purchased in 1883 by a northern
syndicateof capitalists by whom it is
still operated. At the time of its
purchase its 100000 acres was a vast
pasture for cattle belonging to Il few
dealers in that country. Now it is
divided into pasture stations or
ranches, existing every six miles.
The fencing is said to have cost
about $4,000. The land is best nd.
apted for rice, sugar, corn and cotton.
a track, say half Il mile wide, is TAX
en-, and an engine is placed on each
side. The engines are portable and
operate a cable attached to four
plows. BY this arrangement thirty
acres are gone owe in a day with the
labor OF only three men. There is
not a single draught horse en- the en-.
tire place, il we except those used by
the herders OF cattle, OF which there
are 10000 head on the place. The
Southern Pacific railway runs for y
miles through the farm. Tho com

Honeie.. vehicle..

The week has witnessed a very in
teresting race between h~orseless We.
hicles. The actual starting place was
Versailles, though the course was
nominally from Paristo Bordeaux and
back-a distance OF about 100 miles.
The only conditions were that the
competing vehicles must be propell.
ed by some sort OF mechanism, i. e.,
not by horses or by human action.
Bicycles, that is to say, were only I'D
mitted If driven by petroleum or cleo.
tricity. The stakes were G1,4OO for
the first prize, s60O for the second
and f3O0 for the third, f12 for each of
the four next. The start, in Indian
file. was made on Tuesday at 10
o'clock, about thirty carriages CON-
peting, and two minutes being allow.
ed between each. 1t was not expect.
ed that any carriage would get
back to Paris before Saturday, but
n OF them actually reached the win
ming post on Thursday afternoon at /
o'clock. The distance was thus ac-
complished in a little over tifty.eight
hours. the rate Of travelling about fiji.
teen miles an hour. This is an as.
tonisbing performance. and promises
great things, though OF course fifteen
miles an hour could never be allowed
on public roads under ordinary con.
dihons The victor carriage. which
carries two people, was propelled by
petroleum. which seems, for all light
work, to afford the best motive power.
One can hardly doubt that the horse.
less carriage has a very great future
before it.--London Spectator. June

TellerIa Bold Nonha..

Senator Teller, of Colorado, was re-
Gently at Omaha, and to a reporter he
said:
the silver question is spreading in
the east, and even in Europe, and
people are beginning to realize that
silver IS the only panacea for hard
times.
Il left the Democratic party in
1854 in New York state to assist in
organizing the Republican party. and
have been u Republican ever since. 1
left the Democratic party at that time
on account of its policy on the labor
question, namely, slavery OF coiored
workmen. 1 rebelled against physic-
servitude. To-day l stand before the
people OF the United States rs a sill
yer man, above party. and l shall
leave the Republican party il at any
time in the future it refuses relief to
silver interests and seeks to plunge
the citizen INTO financial servitude.
l mean what l say, and il the Repub-
hcan party nominates an anti silver
man for president. or refuses to put a
silver plank i'll is platform, / will
make good my assertion that l am a
silver man first and politician second.
l will bolt, il you please, but l do not
make this as "a threat, impelled by
any motive other than my loyalty to
the interests OF this glorious nation,
which has been shrouded in despair
by the work Of capitalists unfriendly
to silver. The depression is by no
means confined to America. 1t reach.
es around the world, and the result
will be that an international confer
ence will be called within a year. 1t
will be held ut the request OF Germany
and doubtless ask for a ratio OF 1917
to 1. But the free and unlimited
coinage Of silver Is what the world
will eventually come to. The sill.
yer question is no longer a local
one. .

The Russians have made a singular

Diara, is a chain Of rocky hills, near
the Bokharan town OF Karki, and n
number OF large caves which, upon
examination, were found to lead to an
underground city, built apparently
long before the Christian era. Ac.
cording to efigies, inscriptions and
designs upon the gold and silver
money unearthed from among the ru.
ms, the existence OF the town dates
back to some two centuries before the
birth OF Christ. Tho underground
Bokharap city il about two versts

labyrinth OF corridors, streets and
squares, surrounded by houses and
other buildings two or three stor:re
high. Tho editices contain all kinds
OF domestic utensils, pots, urns, vases
and so forth. In some Of the streets
falls OF earth and rock have obstruct.
cd the passages, but generally, the
visitor can walk about freely without
lowering his head. Tho high degree
OF civilization attained by the inhabit.
ants OF the city is shown by the fact
that they are built in several stories,
