from the head of Teton basin and re-
ports that the Jackson Hole men did
not go into the Hoback canyon as they

One scout reported his saddle horse
stolen by Indinas and he was ambus-
caded two days in the timber. If rein
forcements from Lander got into the

down into Hoback basin at once.
The scouts report that the Indians
are camped on the ground where the
Indians were killed on the 18th. Sey-
mour reports a signal fire on ConAnt
creek last night. undoubtedly lighted
by the Lemhis. Thirty-five men left the
Hole Thursday afternoon to meet a
posse coming over from Green river to
help them by way of Grosventre pass.
The Lemhi Indians ran out some
miners Thursday afternoon from the
head of the North Teton river into the
basin. 1t seems the Hole people are
contented to remain in the Notifications

Washington. July 81. - Ex-Consul
Waller has written letter to his step

remarks which he had expected to

an opportunity to deliver. Walters let

ITO the Honorable Judge: l do not
know whether word from the accused
will have very much weight with you
or not, but 1 thank you for the privilege
of speaking in my own behalf. l am
charged with having violated articles
of the penal code by corresponding
with the enemy and giving him infor-
nation as to the movements of French
troops in this place. This charge, / am
sure, can not be sustained nor believed
by the honorable court when your hon
or shall have made "A careful and i'm
partial examination of letters to my
wife, Mr.. Tessie and the young Hova.
l call the attention of the court to the
fact that in none of these letters are
any French movements in Madagascar
or elsewhere mentioned or referred to
in any way. 1t seems to me that this
fact can not be ignored or overlooked
This fact alone should warrant all ac-
quittal of accused. 1t follows, in order
to violate the article of code under
which / am charged, that evidence
should be given that the accused has
| corresponded with the enemy to the eX-
| tent of laying before him the military
movements and operations of the army
of the republic.
"The honorable judges will notice

| Without the clear establishment of thu
charge, 1 contend that l should not b'

Il maintain that the courts should
ascertain SO far as possible the future
intentions of the accused under &;
charge of this kind, to find If possible
whether it is the intention OF the ac
cused to remain here. and whether h
has actual arrangements with the enc
my to assist them against the army o

Indian Agent Tetor. In his report to the

Prom reliable information l have no

killed unlawfully by the Indians two are
killed unlawfully by the settlers The ma
jority of the citizens in Jackson Hole are
men who have left their country for their
countrys good The Indians killed by
these settlers were practically massacred.
The men who committed this crime should
be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the
law. A certain element among the set
tiers in the Jackson Hole country seems
determined to drive the Indians from that
section at whatever cost not recognizing
any law themselves but that which serves
their interest"

Executive Authority VIII BE Exercised

Contests.

Austin, Tex, July Ex-Governor Gull
berson this afternoon issued the follow
ing proclamation in regard to ti,5 Cor
bctt-Fitzsimmons fight:
Whereas, Fighting with or without
gloves is expressly prohibited by the
law of this state and any person who
acts as second, stakeholder, counsellor
or adviser or who should render aid
of any such character in any such fight
is a principal in such offense; and
whereas, 1t is the duty Of the police
officers to prevent infractions of the
said law. as well as to cause offenders
to be apprehended and punished, for
which ample provision is made; and
Whereas, 1t is believed the said law
has been and is being further violated
and further violations thereof are con-
templated and are now being openly
provided for: and
Whereas, Such fragrant defiance will
bring disrepute upon and foster a spirit
of disobedience of all laws; and
Whereas, The effect of such encoun-
| ter. besides showing a contemptuous
| disregard for our law, will tend to make
| Texas the seat of the offenses prohib-
| tied by most all of the states of the
| Union; and
Whereas, Any supposed pecuniary
| benefit resulting therefrom will be
clearly acquired at the expense of the
will of the people; and
Whereas, Texas, with her hospitable
and intelligent population and limitless
resources, needs not the incentive of
violations of the law to induce immi-
grafton or investment; and
| Whereas, The constitution of the
| state enjoins that the executive shall
| cause the laws to be faithfully ex-
| ecuted;
| Nov /. therefore, C. A. Culberson
| governor of the state of Texas, by vir-
| tue of the authority vested in me by

! do hereby urge the various officers
| charged with such duties, both to pre-.

and all persons contemplating full in.

authority I shall take care that the
law is faithfully executed to tie enc
that such offenses may DE prevented
