SEQUELrT0 A TRAGEDY.
Boney Earnest Prosecuted By the
Leader of a Mob.

Casper, WyO.. Jan. 29.-Today, in the
district court. Judge Bramel presiding,
occurred what, it is 10 be hoped, is the
last act in the tragedy that occurred
in the Sweetwater valley, in the west
ern portion of this county, several years
ago, when James Averill and Ella Wat
son We're taken from their home by a
mob of seven men, in broad daylight,
and hanged.
Boney Earnest, a ranchman of that
section. who has been a resident of
what is now the state of Wyoming for
more than 80 years, took a stand
against that proceeding, and publicly
denounced it. In 1894 Mr. Earnest was
nominated for the Wyoming legislature
by the Democrats, and shortly before
election, Albert J. Boutwell,, the alleged
leader of the gang that hanged Averill
and Ella Watson, came to Casper and
had Earnest arrested for killing a steer
which Boutwell, claimed belonged to
Samuel Parkins At the preliminary ex-
animation Earnest was promptly dis
charged, ard there came near being
another tragedy, but the officers took
the 9recaution to disarm all who at
tended the trial.
The matter rested, and was partially
forgotten, until recently a grand jury
was impaneled, ostensibIy to indict Nc
Rea for murder in the first degree.
Boutwell, suddenly appeared upon the
scene. and the grand jury returned an
indictment against Boney Earnest for
the old charge of cattle killing. The
case was called for trial yesterday, the
Prosecuting attorney, of course, ap-
pearing for the state, and Chester b.
Bradley for the defendant Boutwell,
was the principal witness for the prose-
cution. Mr. Parkins, the alleged owner
of the steer in question took the stand
for the defense, and testified that he
and Mr.. Earnest were partners in the
cattle business at the time the alleged
crime was committed, and that Mr..
Earnest had perfect right to kill the
steer The respective attorneys sub
mitted the case without argument, and
the jury promptly returned verdict of
accuittal. without leaving the court
room. The case has probably cost Ma
trcna county over $1,000, from first to
last.
No man in Wyoming is better or more
favorably known than Boney Earnest,
and Judge Bramel promptly stepped
from the bench and was the first to
take him by the hand and congratulate
him whe- the verdict was read.

SITUATION UNCHANGED.
No Word From Gen. Lee Regarded a
Good Indication.

Washington, Jan. 3L-No word has
been received at the state department
from Consul General Lee since Satur-
day last. which is taken as an indica-
ton that all is quiet there and that
the situation remains unchanged.
The department has been informed
that the Spanish authorities in Havana
had seized certain supplies consigned
to private individual but there is no
cause for cabling this incident, mas
much as the agreement by the depart
ment with the Spanish authorities for
the free admission of supplies for the
suffering Cubans looked to the consign-
ment of all such supplies to Consul
General Lee and the exclusion of indi-
viduals from the privilege of free adj
mission of goods. a provision necessary
to prevent frauds upon the customs
revenues.

A DRIPS' CHECK TURNS UP.
CASHED BY THE LIEUTENANT
IN THIS CITY.
Returned From Cheyenne as Worth
less-G. D. Lallier Arrested For
Obtaining Money Under False
Pretenses.

AS has been previously stated in The
Herald, no search is being made for
Lieutenant Joseph Drips, Eighth in
fantry, who deserted from his post of
duty at Rock Springs, Wyo., about
three weeks ago But a few private
inquiries have been made and few
further facts in the case learned. Lieu
tenant Simmonds who asked about
Drips few days ago, stated that his
were out of his friendship for Drips.
At the time, he did not believe that
Drips was dishonest and thought he
had been killed in this city.
To satisfy his own mind as to the
disappearance of Drips, he asked the
police for information, and by their
help succeeded in proving to his salts
faction that he deserted, and there the
matter would rest. 1t is now learned
that While in Salt Lake, Drips made
out q check on the First National bank
of Cheyenne for the sum of 50 40. 1t
was made payable TO self and signed
Joseph Drips The check was endorsed
with the names of Joseph Drips, second
lieutenant Eight infantry; ]. V. Ed
redge, and bore the stamp of the Com
mercial National bank.
This check was sent on to Cheyenne
and returned as worthless. But the
paper served as a clue to aid in the de-
termination of the direction taken by
Drips when he left the city. He asked
several people as to what kind of
place Seattle would be to live in. He
also said he thought he would go there
at some time in the future, and sub
sequent events point to Seattle as be-
ing the place to which he went. He
had no money, at least not enough TO
buy ticket across the ocean, as it was
at first supposed he would, and it is
very probable that Seattle or some
town was where he start
ed for.
G. D. Lallier of San Antonio, Tex,
was arrested yesterday by Detectives
Sheets and Raleigh on a charge of OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses.
Lallier, as was stated in The Herald
on Tuesday last, was stopped a week
or so ago when he attempted to leave
the city. He had cashed two SIS drafts
gentlemen in this city, and they feared
the drafts might be worthless. Ac-
cordingly. they related their fears to
the police, and asked to have Lallier
detained until the Houston house could
be heard from. This was done, and
Lallier was caught by the police and
forced to remain in town, though not
under arrest.
Yesterday one of the drafts came
back from Houston, declared as worth
less. Upon the strength of this, Lallier
was arrested. Since then it is learned
that Lallier is wanted in Ogden for
passing two worthless checks at the
Broom hotel, in that place. The drafts
passed in Ogden were for 50 and $40,
and a complaint will be sworn out
against Lallier at that place. Lallier
was taken before Justice Sommer yes
terday, who fixed his bail at $75, and
he was turned over to Sheriff Lewis
at the county Jail.

about $780, on judgment, and now,
