TEXAS RANGERS AT Ell PAso.
Governor Thornton Will Ask for
United States Regulars to Patrol
the Border.

Ell PASO, TEX, Feb. 9.-The trains ar
irving in the city continue to bring in
goodly mum Der of visitors, the larger
share of whom are coming to be here dur
ing the time set for the great fstic car
nival.
Among others arriving to-day was Ad-
jutant-General Mabry of this State, Cap
tains Brooks and Rogers and ten picked
Texas rangers. The Adjutant-G General
states that he is here with these men for
the purpose of seeing that the fights are
not brought off in any disputed or undis-
puted territory to which Texas lays claim.
He will have his headquarters at the Pier
son Hotel, where Governor Thornton of
New Mexico is stopping.
Governor Thornton and Adjutant-Gen-
eral Mabry had conference to-day, and
mapped out their line of procedure to
keep the fight from coming off in Texas or
New Mexico.
Governor Thornton will return to Santa
Fe tomorrow, and through the proper au-
thority make a request that the troops
garrisoned at Fort Bliss be used to patrol
the border of New Mexico near the point
where Texas, New Mexico and Old Mexico
meet.
The preparations made by the Texas and
New Mexico Governors since the passage
of the Cation bill will certainly prevent the
carnival from taking place on United
States soil near this place, if the princi-
pals would think of trying such a thing,
which is not at all likely.
Notwithstanding the preparations that
are developing to keep the fight from be-
ing pulled off on United States soil Dan
Stuart is Offering to that the fights viii
come off as scheduled. If he is making a
bluff he is certainly nervy sport. 1t is
reported that Governor Ahuamada of Chi
huahua came up to Juarez last evening,
but is not lat home" to newspaper re-
porters. 1t is also reported that he has
secured leave of absence which covers
the time of the carnival, and that his
presence here has nothing to do with his
gubernatorial duties.
Stuart certainly manages to keep this
entire community guessing as to the point,
at which he intends to have the great
battles.

MASSACRE OF TAMzARA,
But Ten Males Spared From the
Bullets and Swords of
the Turks.
Women and Girls Left Unprotected to
the Bloodhounds of the
Sultan.

CONSTANTINOPLE, TURKEY. Feb. o.
In spite of the satisfactory reports spread
abroad by the Turkish Government re-
garding the attack on Zeitoan, it has not
been success. The Zeitounlis, fighting
against superior numbers, were favored by
their impregnable position and by the
winter season. In one battle alone the
Turkish losses are given at 10 900, although
this number does not seem possible. The
Zeitounlis are said to have enough provis-
ions to last until July.
Whatever may be the result of the me-
diation no further attack can be made un-
til after March. Regarding the numerical
strength of the Zeitounlis nothing can be
said with certainty.
The unfortunate condition of TamZara,
near Shark Kara Hissar, province of
Sivas, has been mentioned before. The
following letter, dated January 8, was
written by native of the village:
Upon the Sth of November great
number of Turks came to the village and
called upon the people of the village to
come out, The men and women were
made to stand on the ground and then, in
the presence of the women, the men were
killed. o ut of $50 houses all but ten of
the males above years OF age were killed
on that awful day. Then the houses were
stripped of all there was IN them. The
women were stripped of their clothing
where it was worth carrying off. The
prettiest women were carried off by the
Turks. And now OF the Tamzara are only
800 women and children left.
.sYou cannot imagine the horrible con-
difion of fhoSa noon1a 7 haya coau IN,
and again young women who were deli
cately brough. up dressed in two sacks,
one with holes cut in the corners for the
legs and the other with holes for the head
and arms. They were happy to have so
much in the way of clothing. The Govern.
ment has turned back these women every
time they have tried to escape to other
places, and there is no hope for these
wretched women, left the spoils of every
passing Turk, unless some power will be
interested in them to stop the continuous
outrages.
"That the Turks are waging war of ex-
termination against Zeitoun is shown by
their treatment of the villages around
Furnuz. Furnuz is situated about nine
miles east of Zeitoun, and with the ap-
proach OF the Turkish army the Christians
had fed into Furnuz from the surround
ing country until there were at least 1000
people crowded into the town. They had
watchers out on the approaches to give
warning of the arrival of the Turkish
army, with the intention of fleeing to
Zeitoun. In some way the Turkish army
eluded these watchers and surrounded the
town by night so that the unfortunate
Christians awoke to find Gordon around
them.
'"fhree hundred women and children
were brought by the soldiers to Marash.
They say that all the rest were killed.
This two days winter journey over the
snow was especially hard on the children.
Many OF them dropped down on the way
from exhaustion and were left to die. The
soldiers would not permit the mothers to
delay the march,"

ENGLISH LAID TO REST.
Simple Burial Service at the
Grave of the Departed
Statesman.
Lessons Drawn From His Life Pro.
vide the Topic for the Funeral
Sermon.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Feb. 9. - The
body of Hon. William H. English was
taken to the State House at 9 o'clock this
morning and placed in the rotunda of the
capitol, where it remained until l P. NJ, a
large number of citizens viewing the body
as it thus lay in state, notwithstanding the
day was disagreeable and heavy snow
lay upon the ground.
1t is estimated that fully three thousand
persons passed through the building and
stopped for few minutes by the side of
the catafalque.
At o'clock the body was transferred to
the hotel in which he died, and was placed
in the corridor on the second floor. Here
the funeral services were conducted by
Rev. Mr.. English of New York, a cousin
OF the deceased. His remarks were simple
and more in the nature of a lesson drawn
from the dead mans life than an eulogy
upon his character.
Following the services at the hotel the
body was taken to Crown Hill, attended
by the Hendricks Club and the Masons of
Center Lodge, of which the deceased was a
member. The services at the grave con-
sisted only of prayer and hymn, which
are part OF the Masonic ritual.

LOUISVILLE. KY, Feb. 9.-Prince
Reed. deacon of the African Methodist
Episcopal Church on Burnett avenue, was
fatally wounded in the church to-day by
John Breckenridge, also of color.
Breckenridge and companion entered
the church and occupied a pew. and soon
became boisterous. The minister could
not proceed with his sermon, and Deacon
Reed went to where the two men were
seated and asked them to be quiet. They
refused. and he proceeded to eject them
from the church.
Breckenridge's companion was thrown
from the building out into the snow with
considerable force. but when Reed ad-
vanced on Breckenridge he was confronted
by revolver. Breckenridge fired twice at
close range and fled. When the panic in
the church had subsidized it was found that
Reed had been shot in the arm and also in
the stomach. Mem bers of the church
pursued Breckenridge, and he was ar
rested. His companion was also arrested
later.

THE WEEK IN CONGRESS,
Senators at Last Ready to Con
slider Actual Business Of
the Session.
Appr opriation Bills, the Free Seed
Resolution and Monroeism Win
Be Discussed.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. AL
though the present Congress has been in
session for more than two months, with
out the customary holiday recess, the SEN
ate will only this week get down to the
actual business of the session and begin
the consideration OF the appropriation
bills. Hansbrough's seed resolution is the
unfinished business, and he expects to
have hearing upon it within a few days,
although the understanding is that it is to
be laid aside temporarily whenever ap-
preparation bills are ready to be consid-
cred.
Quay's amended resolution to recommit
the tariff bill to the Senate, which was laid
over until tomorrow, will come up early.
Quay says thst while the vote will be close
he believes it has an even chance of pass
ing. The Populists, however, at their re-
cent conference decided to vote against
recommitment, and if they do SO, together
with the entire Democratic vote, the reso-
luton will not prevail.
Smith of New Jersey will address the
Senate tomorrow on the Monroe resolu-
tions now pending: 1t is believed that he
will take ground between the ultra-con-
servatism of his colleague, Seweil, and the
radicalism of Davis of Minnesota. The
fact that Smith has conferred with the
President on the subject and his speech,
to a certain extent, is believed to reflect
the views of the chief executive will give
it interest. Blanchard of Louisiana will
also speak on the same subject Tuesday.
The effort to change the elective officers
of the Senate may be made during the lat
ter part of the week, but there is more or
less of conjecture regarding this, as there
is abundant work before the Senate in the
shape of appropriation bills, those having
been reported to the Senate being the
| urgent deficiency, military academy, PEN
sions and the consular and diplomatic
bills. In none of these have many addi-
tions been made, save in the urgent def
cheney bill, to which, at the request of the
Treasury Department, a large amount for
the Department of Justice has been in
serted.
The House will further discuss the bond
and silver coinage bill until II o. clock Tues
day morning.
Notice has been given that large num-
Der of amendments will be offered apd it
is not certain when final vote on the
Senate free coinage substitute will be
reached. It was hoped that it may be had
on Wednesday. The silver advocates con-
cede that the Republican vote in favor of
the substitute will not be as large as was
that given against the passage of the bond
mated by them at from 25 to 40.
After the financial matter has been dis
posed of appropriation bills will again
come to the front. There are two of these
the agricultural and mililary bills-now
on the calendar, and the Indian bill is
ready for report to the House.
The Elections Committee has two or
three cases of contest ready which they
can bring in at any time.
