SHOT BY The ABDucTORS,
Pursuit of Half. Breeds Who
Were Stealing an In
dams Wife.
Now There Is Prospect of Revival
of the Feud Between Sioux
and Shoshones.

OMAHA, NEBR., March 16-The facts
in the case of the shooting of an Indian
near Fort Washakie nave been received at
army headquarters from the commandant
at that post. He says that Jim Washakie,
grandson of Chief Washakie, was shot
three times by Will Lansraux, accom-
panied by Glenn O'Neal, both half breeds.
They were abducting Washakie's wife
when he with a half-breed named Dodge
met them. They were fred upon, Wash
axle being wounded in the leg, side and
back, probably fatally.
Lamaraux and O'Neal continued on with
the woman, bound for the British posses
sions, followed by detachment OF Indian
police, who hope to apprehend the fugi-
tives at Crow Agency, Mont, where it is
believed they will stop to rest. Should
young Washakie die the Indians will
avenge him by making war on number
of Sioux half-breeds who are on the reserv.
alton.
The Sioux and the Shoshones had many
battles from 1867 to 1873 Tradition says
that the Shoshones consider themselves to
have been badly treated by the Sioux war
riors and they have never had an oppor-
tunity to get their revenge. Captain
Wilson, acting Indian agent, fears that
the old feud between the two tribes will be
renewed should young Washakie die.

DARING RAID BY BURGLARS.
Over Seven thousand Dollars Worth of Furs
T1kea Frcm New York
Establishment.

NEW YORK, N. Y, March 16.-One of
the most daring burglaries which have ever
taken place in this city was reported late
last night to the police of the West One
Hundred and Twenty-ffth street station.
Charles Johnessen, furrier, occupies the
third and fourth floors of building on
One Hundred and Twenty-fourth street.
and in addition to his own stock has kept
a valuable collection of furs in store owned
by private individuals. The entire con-
tents of the store were estimated at $40, ,OOO
About 0:15 last night carriage stopped
at the entrance to the building and three
men alighted. One remained beside the
carriage door, while the others assembled
the stairs. A few minutes later the two
men returned and placing three bundles
in the carriage jumped in, drove away and
disappeared.
On the top floor of the house lives Charles
A. Strasburg, who, with his wife, returned
home late in the evening. Mrs. Strasburg,
while passing Johnessen'sr warerooms,
tripped and fell against the door, which
gave way. 1t was then ascertained that
the door had been pried open with jimmy,
which was found near by. Johnessen was
at once notified and found that the rooms
had been thoroughly ransacked and more
than $1,000 worth of furs had been taken
away. AT the time of the robbery the
front of the building was brightly illumi-
mated by electric lights and the streets
were filled with pedestrians.

Mary Lease May Enter the Race for
Attorney General of Kansas.
WICHITA, KANs., March l6.-Mrs.
Mary e. Lease is being strongly urged as
candidate for the PopuIist nomination for
Attorney General of Kansas. When shown
the dispatch tonight stating that the
Agitator, Populist paper of Garnett,
Kans, had declared for her, she said:
"The suggestion of my candidacy origi-
mated, no doubt, with my friends and
friends of reform who do not believe that
the so-called Populists who traded the
principles of the Populist party for the
services of corporation attorney VINO
holds Office by the grace of the Republican
party should be the only aspirants for the
confidence of the people. Wendell
Phillips says the advocates of reform
must be independent of the Office or
the demands of bread and butter. This
has been reversed by the reformers of to-
day who have sold their party for the
loaves and fishes. / would not trade my
fearless independence for any Office in the
gift of the people, but as resident of this
State and taxpayer shall contribute my
little mite toward keeping the people in
formed as to the true inwardness of those
who aspire to Office. believe it is neces-
sary to assure my friends in this State that
l shall always be with the people against
party-fxers and boodler reformers.
The friends of Mrs. Lease here are
anxious that she shall make the race. She
is a member Of the local bar and enjoyed a
good practice before she entered the lee
ture field.
