WILL PAY PRINCIPAL
Of the Government Lien on the Kansas Pacific
 in Full.

Washingon, Feb 12.-Attorney-General Grggs received a dispatch from Judge Hoadley, the government legal representa- tive in the matter of the sale of the Kan sas Pacific railroad, stating that arrange ments had been affected by which the Union Pacific reorganization committee would pay the principal of the government lien in full.
 This telegram said the representatives of the Kansas Pacific reorganization commit tee had guaranteed that the government should receive the sale of it's interest in the Kansas Pacific road on Feb 16, not less than $6,303,000, the amount of the principal of it's claim. Thereupon the attorney-gen- eral wired the authority to accept the guarantee.
 The acceptance of the proposition does not, however prevent the government from accepting any bid In excess of the amount guaranteed. In the two transactions by which the government has disposed of its liens upon the Union Pacific and the Kan sas Pacific roads, 1t receives a total of $64,- 751, ,223. Of his sum, $27 ,513 is he prin7 cfpaI of he debt of the Union Pacific and $31 211 Ill the full amount of the accrued and unpaid interest to the date of sale. From the Kansas Pacific the government realizes s6,303,000, the principal, losing the balance of interest amounting to S6,624, ,l01. The amount realized from the two sales is about $20, ,000,000 in excess of the amount the government offered to take during the last part of the last administrations As to the Kansas Pacific, the officials regarded the outcome as emnently satisfactory, in- asmuch as the sum realized, when taken in connection with the first liens, which the government would have been compelled to bid in order to protect its own interest, represents, in their judgment, the full value of the road This settlement of the matter releases and returns to the treas- ury the 600 deposited with the court in order that the government might be quail flied as a bidder a the sale, $7,515,255 de- posted some days ago for the purpose of the first mortgage bonds, and $6,S03,0O which the reorganization committee has agreed to pay. The entire amount which will thus be added to the treasury's available cash is $14 71S 255

Washington, Feb. 12.-The contested election case of Goodwin ys Brewer, from the Fifth Alabama district, was argued before the house committee on elections No. i today.

DECEIVED SAVANNAH.
Aldermen of That City Testify Against Cap
 tain Carter.

Savannah, Ga-, Feb, 1a-Ex-Alde demnen of the city of Savannah, D. B. Leetes, H. H. Bacon and L. A. Falligant, commanded the attention of the Carter courtmartial this morning. Troy testified in reference to the enforced removal of stone ballast from the quarantine station in 1896, under orders of Captain Garter.
 During that year Captain Carter wrote to the city of Savannah, notifying the au- thorities that several hundred tons of stone ballast at the quarantine must be removed at once to make way for a harbor line. The island on which the station was do- cated was to be cut away and he said the stone must be sold at forced sale. It only brought $500 The Atlantic Contracting company bought 1t.
 The new lines have never been cut and the station remains unchanged. The charge against the accused in this con- nection is that he deceived the city of Sa- yannah and forced the sale of the stone to aid the Atlantic Contracting company.

MORE HORRIBLE DETAILS
Being Given by the Eye Witnesses to the Ha- zleton Tragedy

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Feb. 12.-Mike Krura, a Crystal Ridge man, was the first witness in the Lattimer shooting case today. He said he joined the strikers at West Hazle- ton with number of his friends.
 'I was in the front rank at Lattimer," the witness said, land I stopped with the others when the sheriff ordered us to do so, to hear what he had to say. The other men pushed us on past the sheriff and then the firing commenced. I ran with the oth- CTS. Two men near me fell wounded"
 On cross-examination by counsel for the defense the witness said he had not heard that any man had been beaten at Crystal Road by the strikers because he would not join them.
 Matthew Long, of the prosecuting conn mittee, said today that the commonwealth would have about fifty more witnesses to put on the stand
 MT. Lenahan, counsel for the defense, denied the rumor that the defense would not call any witnesses, thereby allowing the case to go to the jury without any evidence. He stated that no motion would be made to the court to have the case dis missed on the ground that the common- wealth had made out no case. He said the defense wanted to show the affair up in it's proper light, and for that purpose would put large number of witnesses on the stand, including all the deputies.
 The second witness today was Anthony Gayno. He said while he was at West Hazleton one of the deputies seized him by the coat sleeve. tore 1t and hustled him around frightening him so badly that he did not go to Lattimer.
 Miss Mary Kohler said that she saw the strikers arrive at Lattimer and that they were quiet and orderly.
 On cross-examination, the witness ad- mitted that the people of Lattimer seemed frightened when they heard that the strik- CTS were coming, and that she knew of sew eral who had fled to the mountain,

 At the Spanish legation affairs have as- sumed a normal condition. Senor DuBosc is in charge. He did not go to the state de- partment this morning. This afternoon he made calls on the foreign representa- tives, thus fulfilling a social and official duty by which the fact of his assuming charge of the post is made known to them.
 Senor DeLome is busy winding up his affairs, preparing for departure. The time of leaving has not been set. Mime. De- Lome is directing the unexpectedly nasty work of paclxin.

NEW INDIAN BILL
Designed fer the Better Government of the
 Red Man.

Washington, Feb. 12.-The subcommittee on Indian affairs, which has been engaged for considerable time in framing meas ure designed to harmonize the laws for the government of the Indian territory and to bring order out of the chaos prevailing there, has completed it's work and the re- suit will be presented to the full committee on Monday.
 The bill framed is most comprehensive measure It abolshes all Indian courts in the territories and requires the presidents approyal of all acts passed by the Indian legislature. This latter provision is to pre- vent the scandalous legislation of the In dian legislatures.
 It empowers the Dawes commission to lay out town sites and provides for ac- ouiring lots and methods of conducting the business of the towns and in various other ways provides for equities between Indians MT. Fisher, chairman of the In dian committee, hopes to secure action on the measure at this session of congress.

HIS IDENTITY IS KNOWN.
The Man Who Got the DeLome
 Letter.

New York,=Feb. 12.-The Press says::
 Through source known to be absolutely trustworthy the Press has learned the iden- tity of the person who stole the famous DeLome letter. The insulting missve was not abstracted from the mails.s and it was not a thougiftless and unconsidered memo randum never intended for tranSnission by post, as has been contended in some quar- ters.
 The letter which encompassed DeLome's downfall was stolen by Manuel Serafin Pichardo, son-in-law of Senor Arturo Amblard deputy of the cortes in Cuba. Pichardo is the close business associate of Canalejas, the editor of Fl Herado of Madrid, to whom the letter was addressed and deliverd, and is the Havana corre- spondent of that newspaper. He is young man of brilliant intellectual attachments, and the vigor and beauty of his poetic writ ings have given him the name of the Poet of Cuba"
 Pichardo was in a position where he could obtain access to the correspondence of Calalejas. He had been advised in ad- vance of the writing of the letter and it's probable contents; at least that is the story told now. But whether that be true or false he resented the moment he saw 1t the insulting reference it contained to Amblard. "There goes Ambard. I believe he comes too deeply taken up with little political matters, and there must be some thing great we shall lose"
 This, as much as anything fixed Pich- ardo's determination. He realized the im- portance of the indiscreet expression in the letter and took the missve out of the package in which it had been placed to be sent, with other accumulated correspon- dence to Madrid. Whether he had any in- timaton from his employer, Canalejas, that the communication might be quietly removed is not disclosed by the authority for this story; but he took it, anyhow, and intrusted it to a man who gave up re- munerative position in Havana to bring it to the United States

deputies coming out of hardware store with guns. "I heard them say" he con- tinued, "they were going to shoot the strik- CTS. At Lattimer I saw the sheriff. He was pushing his revolver in the faces of some of them, but he did not shoot. Some of the deputies shouted 'fire,' and the shooting commenced. We all ran. saw seven men fall right away, and others fell as we ran to the school house. A couple of deputies ran as far as the railroad and shot at some of the strikers who were run ming in the brush."
 Court then adjourned until Monday.
