ST. LOUIS agrees, same as TIE other
cities which were DESTROYS of the Ma
tional Republican Convention, to pay
off the party's debts. AS either Of the
candidates were willing to do this, it
cut no figure in the location. A de-
sire to seduce Missouri from her DEM
ocratic allegiance, was probably the
leading incentive, which hope is rem
dered of possible, if not probable, veri-
fication, by the apostacy OF Kentucky.

THE CHINESE QUESTION AGAIN Ex-

Chinese laborers in Tacoma, the
first that have obtained a foothold
since that race was driven out several
years ago, has again become matter
OF contention, and may lead to serious
disturbance. the Chinese have, by
common consent, given the city a wide
berth since the exodus, from the belief
that their appearance would be at

interview was long and spirited, Riggs
refusing to give the committee any as

THE WESTERN CATTLE THIEVES.
A Bette. That the Nebraska RustIers Have
Been lynchtd.

Butte, Neb., July 17.-There is gen
eral belief here that the cattle thieves
captured by the Vigilantes on Sunday
have been lynched Vigilantes have been
after them for some time and found them
camped in the stockade at Fair, and all
ready to protect their stolen property
They were quickly surrounded, and the
men, realizing the futility of resistance,
surrendered to the Vigilantes.
They were disarIned, bound hand and
foot,a placed on their horses and started
west, presumably for keyapaha county,
The men captured are Louis Zouadan, 3
resident of Spencer, Neb, S. G. Clark, G.
S. Murphy and c. Fl. Jackson who live
west of Springview Nearly 100 head OF
cattle were found.
Few here think the cattle thieves will
reach Springview as the Nigilantes are ole
farmers and seldom bring rustler back
when they have good chance to MAKE
away with him. Others believe that be
cause of the publicity given to the affair
the men in charge will not dare to maxi
away with them, but viii turn them over
to the authorities at Springview, when
other parties will take them from the Off
GERS and they will likely share the usua,
fate of rustlers.

Three Of the sisters hired friendly
native to procure them small boat In
which they drifted down the river for
three days, arriving at town where they
got a steamer for Colon, and from that
place proceeded to New York, reaching
the latter city last Friday.

Are You Sure Your Company

Is 1t not as essential to know
