MASSACRE NEWS.
Market Lake Advices Are That

Indians.

WASHINGTON, July 27.-The In
dian bureau has received a dis
patch from Agent Teter saying that
there is absolutely no truth in the
report of a massacre at Jackson
Hole. Agent Teter's dispatch said
that a courier had returned from
Jackson Hole to Market Lake who
reported that he was the last man
out of Jackson Hole, and that when
he left everything was quiet.
A dispatch sent by Agent Teter
from Idaho Falls last night stated
that he had joined Gen. Coppinger
en- route to the scene of the trouble.
The messengers sent from the agency
to the Bannocks have returned from
Jackson Hole and report that the
Indians will not resist arrest. No
credence is now given the massacre
story by the bureau officials. They
say that in the event of such a mas
sacre the bureau would be immedi-
ately notified by the agent or his
representative.

HELENA, Mont, July q. - The

Of prominent citizens have been in
conference during the past two days
with Gov. Richards relative to the
propriety of calling an extra ses-

issue the call if it becomes neces-
sary to prevent the consolidation of
the two roads. The state constitu-
ton forbids consolidation of COM

of both roads were organized under

will have to do is to pass a law put

consolidation will be effected spe-

A MISSING BROTHER,
Horace Williams Disappeared Be-
fOreHis Sisters Were Killed.

CHICAGO, July 27-William Capps.
the Fort Worth, Texas, attorney who
is here in behalf of the heirs of the
Williams sisters, advanced a rather
startling theory today, which if found
to be true, will add another victim
to the long list of murders already
credited to Holmes. According to
Capps, Minnie r. Williams had a
brother named Horace A Williams in
Denver, Col. This young man either
was killed or disappeared in May or
June, 1883, shortly before the supposed
murder of the Williams sisters. The
manner of his death is -rot known to
the attorney, but he says he has ascer-
tained that the young man was insured
for $500 in favor of his sister Minnie.
This fact Mr.. Capps considers to be
decidedly peculiar, as he says it is not
reasonable to suppose Horace Williams
would insure his life in favor of a sis
ter who was already wealthy. He said
that his Investigations upon this point
were in an uncompleted state, but
from what he had learned he was of the
opinion that Holmes had first insured
the young man and then been instru-
mental in causing his death.

SWEDINSKEY EXCITED.
Defense Promises to Spring a Sur
prise.

?. FARGO, N. D., July 27-Thomas
Swedinskey was on the stand all day
today in the famous Kent murder
case, and he was put through a Wig
orous cross-eXamination by Attorney
Hildreth. He did not move him a great
deal, although Swedinskey was pretty
well mixed at times. His famous lit
tie book of instructions was examined
thoroughly, and it was translated by
Swedinskey from the Bohemian Ian
guage. He got a little bit indignant on
the stand today when the attorney
asked him the question, Did you
think that they were going to hang
you, Tom?" He arose in his seat and
burst out, I don't care what they do
with me. They can hang me if they
want" Kent displayed a great deal
of emotion whenever his wife's name
is mentioned. Attorney Hildreth an
nouncedto the court this afternoon that
they had some questions to ask Swe-
dinskey which could not be asked in
the presence of the ladies assembled
in the court room. 1t is thought that
the defense will spring a surprise
Monday by charging Swedinskey with
an attempt to assault Mrs. Kent, and
failing shot her dead. The testimony
today has been of an uninteresting ma
ture, being mostly repetition of the
story of the crime.

Waller, now in prison at Marseilles.
France, undergoing sentence of twenty
years for alleged giving information to
the enemy of the movements of French
troops in Madagascar, has written q
letter to his stepson, Paul Bray, in

clares the only evidence against him
was found in letters written to his
wife and one or two friends, in which
he complained of the action of certain
individual French soldiers. He posi-
lively denies that he gave information
to any one of the movement of tho
French troops. Officials of the state
department are anXiously awaiting in

EDWARD FORGOT HIMSELF.
Miss Minnie OFT Asserts She Waa
Struck by an Agent.

Edward e. Rossler was accused, in the
municipal court yesterday, of striking
Miss Minnie OFT. Rossler is an agent
for the American Wringer company.
Miss OFT had consented to accept q
pair of lace curtains at the hands of
the wringer company, it being under
stood that she would pecuniarily re-
ciprocate at certain definite intervals.
Mr.. Rossler called in connection with
this happy arrangement, but unhappily
marred the whole affir by seeking to
anticipate the almanac. He said q
money balance ws due. So, at least,
Miss OFT claims, and she replied, with
the naive artlessness of young girl,
that the balnce was not due. Mr..
Rossler then had recourse to the last
argument of kings, and was about to
use force in securing the curtains. Un-
able to detect his crown or sceptre,
Miss Otis mother refused to recognize
the propriety of Mr.. Rossler's kingly
position and abruptly shut the door in
his face. II is charged that Mr.. Ros<
sler cast all his weight of ms majesty
upon the door, forced it opeh, and gavd
Miss OFT the royal accolade with a large
brown fist. He will exhibit his family
tree to Judge Orr tomorrow.

MEXICO DOESN'T LIKE HIM.
America Will Have No COmmers
call Agent at ParaI.

WASHINGTON, July 27.-It is
learned at the state department that
James B. Long, to whom the Mexican
government is reported to have re,
fused an exequatur, was really named
as United States commercial agent al
the small town of Paral, in the state
of Chihuahua, and not as consul gen.
eral at Chihuahua, which Office does
not exist. The place is worth nothing
in emoluments ard has no salary al
lowance. Mr.. Long, who is native OF
Pennsylvania, is a resident of Parai,
and at the suggestion of the United
States consul at Chihuahua, based on
a desire to have some one at hand td
look out for American interests in
Paral, the state department selected
him as a commercial agent. If tho
Mexican government has declined to
issue to him certificate of recognition,
which it has an unqueStionable righL
to do, the state department will droI
the matter and allow the place to 81
without an agent.
