TOWN TERRORIZED.
Truth of the Reported Fox Indian
Agency Raid.


GUTHRIE, o. T., Feb. 5-Full particulars
received today from Lincoln county show
that the outlaws who terrorized the Sac and
Fox agency, also INDUCED in depredations
at the town of Stroud, fifteen miles northeast
of Chandler, a few hours before. The re-
ports brought in yesterday by deputy mar
shals to the effect that Gen. Thomas agent
at the Sac and Fox agency, was shot and
rect and arose from the sensational occurrence
at Stroud. The robbers rode into the agency
but there was no shooting.
Particulars of the affair received at the
United States marshaPs Office show that a
bitter feud had long existed between the
Grif1ths and Lurten families, near Stroud.
The Grifiths are tough characters and have
inquired in several raids. The feud grew out
of dispute over a farm near Stroud. Three
weeks ago, while two of the Griffith bows
were blowing on the disputed ground, they
were shot from ambusch. They suspected
Henry Lurten and caused his arrest and in
generation. Lurten gave bond and was re-
leased.
On Monday the Griffith gang, composed
OF six members, gathered at the town of
Stroud and terroriZed the citizens. They
ordered everybody inside the houses, declar-
ing that bloody battle would shortly take
place. For two days Stroud was in a state
Of siege and few people ventured out.
Wednesday, while Deputy Jim Furbar, Henry
Lurten, Everett Lurten and Charles Moore
by the Griffith gang, eight in number.
Twenty shots were fired but no one was
killed.
Four Of the Grif1ths rode hurried1y
away to Sac and Fox where they caus-
ed the excitement already mentioned.
The four remaining outlaws then cap
tured the two Lurtens, Furber and
Moore bound them and hurried them
away to the Creek country. Citizens
Of Stroud followed, and fearful Of
capture, the Griff1ths released Furber,
telling him he would find his three
companions strung up before daylight.
Two posses Of deputies have left
Chandler to intercept the Griffiths A
report received this evening says old
man Henry Lurten has been Iynched
and Everett Lurten and Moore shot.
At this writing the latter report cannot
be confirmed. The whole eastern coun-
try is stirred up.

A TRIBUTE
OF SCIENCE.
Synopsis of a most Remarkable
Lecture Delivered Before the
Ninth Medical Congress, by
DIR. A. L. A. Toboldt, of the
University of Pennsylvania.

The famous fountain of health
at Carlsbad, in Bohemia, which
has been the refuge of invalids
for five centuries, is certainly
well worthy of a careful study.
My experience with this rene
dialagent has been such that /
may truly say that no remedy
which | ever employed has given
me so much pleasure and profit
as this particular one. Selecting
a number of chronic hypochon-
driacs, whose Affections have
baff1ed all my previous efforts as
my subjects, / was truly aston
ished to note that, although no
rigid diet was prescribed, and
only a limited amount Of exercise
was INDUCED in, I obtained most
remarkable results-the complex
ion, even after weeks use,
began to clear up, the step be-
came more firm and elastic, and,
what was more, the entire host
of hypochondriacal complaints,
seemed to vanish like mist.
Many limitations of the genu-
inc imported Carlsbad Waters
and Carlsbad Sprudel Salt are
being sold here by druggists and
others. The genuine article is
bottled under the supervision Of
the city of Carlsbad, and has the
seal of the city and the signature
of E1sNER & MENDELsoN Co., sole
agents for the U. S., New York,
on every bottle. All others are
worthless limitations.
DR.. Toboldt's lecture. with
table of cases treated, will be
mailed to any address upon ap-
plication to the agents of the
Carlsbad Spring, EIsNER & MEN

Charles w. Blake, whose true name
is William Wadsworth, was sentenced
to six years at hard labor in the states
prison at Saltwater yesterday for
grand larceny in the first degree.
M. l.. Germany, the attorney for
Wadsworth, made an exhaustive at
tempt to secure a, new trial, but Judge
BeIden refused, after having examined
the authorities thoroughly. The only
point he was in doubt about for a mo-
ment was as to whether the indictment
was at fault because it did not state
that the money was stolen without
the consent of the Minneapolis dry
goods company, but after consulting
authorities, he decided that as the in
dlctment was for aiding and procuring,
being accessory before the fact, that
allegation was not necessary
Mr.. Purdy moved for sentence. and
Cormandy made another talk for his
client. He asked that the court pay no
attention to the publications in the
newspapers some days since. as the
story as to his having been in prison
before was without foundation. At
THIS point, however, Mr.. Purdy called
A. q. Braden, a young law student, to
the stand The court gave the prisoner
one more opportunity to escape a false
piece of ost-conviction evidence by
calling him to the stand. Mr. Cor
mandy looked quite collapsed when the
prisoner admitted the whole story the
state was about to prove by the wit
ness, which was to the effect that his
name was William Wadsworth. and
that he was born In Brooklyn, N. Y,
nfty-three years ago. He had pleaded
guilty to forgery, having signed his
mothers name to a. note, she having
| Endorsed several for him before, He
said he began to serve a f1ve-year SEN
tence March 16, 1887, at Auburn, N. Y.
and was released on good time.
L have very carefully weighed this
matter" said the court, land am con-
WINGED that you knew the money was
stolen, and more. that you had much to
do with the original theft"
Mr.. Cormandy stated that he hoped
the court would remember that his ell
ent had been the means of exposing the
plot to escape from the Jail, and that
II the authorities had acted when he
| first gave the information, no escape
would have occurred. However the
court, gave Blake six years at Still
| water.

PIPE TRUST CASE.
Decision in Favor of the Defendants
Handed Down.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Feb. 5.-The
case of the United States against the
castiron pipe companies, argued sew
eral days ago in the United States
court, was decided today The opinion
handed down by Judge Clark exoner-
ates the defendants and dismisses the
petition filed against them. The court
finds that association among the de-
PENDANTS did not create a monopoly or
combination in restraint Of trade I'M
der the antitrust act as alleged, and
that the bonus which it was charged
was added to the fair price Of pipe
was only an arrangement among de-
PENDANT, which did not affect the price
Of pipe to the customer; that while in
certain instances pipe had been sold
for higher prices, the price was gener-
ally fixed by outside competition, and
that no complaints of the price had
been made Notwithstanding the efforts
of Mcclure, confidential clerk for the
Chattanooga defendants, to induce
consumers Of pipe to sue them.

ENGLAND IN EGYPT,
Important Light ON the Subject in
the House of Commons

LONDON, Feb. 5.-Important statements
on the vote for the expenses Of the recent
Anglo-Egyptian expedition up the Nile to
Dongola. Sir Michael Hicks-B each. the chan
cellor of the excheQuer, referred to the de-
cision of the Egyptian mixed court Of appeal
in refusing to allow the funds Of the Caisse
Of the Egyptian debt to be used to defray the
expenses Of the expedition, thus compelling
Great Britain to advance the money re-
quired. He declared that the court of ap-
peals had thus created an almost absurd
position adding:
"And next year grave question will arise
regarding the courts power and authority
and whether it should be allowed to thus in
terfere in affairs. The main cause of the pro-
longed British occupation is that France espe-
cially never allowed Great Britain a free
hand in Egypt. Involuntarily retiring from
that country France has now thrown upon
Great Britain the whole responsibility of
the safety Of Egypt, and Great Britain may
fairly demand a free hand in the perform
ance Of her responsibilities. The govern
right, and will not be run out of 1t by diff
culties such as the refusal of money. The
next advance will be to Abu Hamed, and
probably the advance later will go further
but how far it Is impossible to say
John Morley, who was chief secretary for
Ireland in Lord Rosebery's administration
commented upon the gravity Of the state
ments made by the chancellor of the ex-
chequer. He concluded by dwelling upon
the locking up of great bodies OF troops at q
time when we are within measurable dis
lance of new conditions of sea power and
the balance of power In the Levant.'
