SUPPOSED DEAD MAN ALIVE.
Property Distributed and Man
Charged With His Murder.

Galena, Kan, Feb. S.-Great excite
ment prevails over the appearance in this
city of Tyler Gaviett, who disappeared
in March last from the Windsor stock
farm, owned by Scion L. Cheney, one of
the most prominent citizens of the county
at the time.
Neighbors took charge of Gaviett's crop
and other property and disposed of it and
circulated the report that Cheney had
murdered him. County Attorney Charles
Stevens, in the absence of Cheney,
searched the place for the body. This
act led to an assault upon Perry Stevens,
brother of the county attorney, by Che
ney, for which $4,000 damage suit is
now pending.
Upon his arrival here Gaviett imme-
diately secured warrants for the arrest of
County Attorney Stevens and five others,
charging them today with stealing his
property. The warrants will be served
tomorrow. The appearance of Gaviett re-
moved the cloud from Cheney and leaves
his accusers in bad predicament.

advanced to the top of the divide about

yesterday, but no serious attack was
made RevDlutionists about 500 strong are
entrenched in Il good position outside the
town. More government troops are eX-

CAMPS FOR THE ARMY.
Commissioners Have Been Looking Over
Ground in Cuba.

Havana. October 11.--Col. Heeker an
Captains Clay, Crawford and Clark Wis
tied the grounds surrounding the neigh
borhood of Guanabacoa yesterday, for he
purpose of selecting a site for a camp to
be used by the American troops. So far
they have made no selection, having
found most of the ground marshy and
nsble to generate malaria and miasma.
The commissioners also find that the
railroad facilities for the transportation
of troops are most meagre and they have
recommended that work be begun imme.
diately on an extension of the road to the
eastern end of the island. They regard
such a step as being OF the greatest i'm
portance for the mobilization of the army
of occupation in case Of emergency. A
special commission of these engineers
win visit several posts of the island. 60
ing as far as Santiago. All of the COM
missioners agree and insist upon one
point, which was cahIed to President Nc
Kinlsy yesterday, namely the Imperative
necessity OF connecting the eastern and
western ends of the islands by rail with
out any delay, as n military precaution.
The civil governor and the mayor held
another long conference this morning on
municipal matters. The cab companies
still insist upon revision Of the tariff
as approved last week by the governor
and they will probably gain their point.
