Chas. Evans, from Newport. was

says the farmers are feeling blue
over the outlook for cotton this

farmers were compelled to replant
the crop. Now the web worms

INDIAN RAIDS IN COLORADO.
The state May Adopt Measures to
Protect Itself.

DENVER. Col, Dec. Ex-Governor
Thomas has issued an ultimatum to the
Government regarding the Indian raids in
western Colorado. In communication to
the Interior Department the governor says
if the Indians are not kept within bounds
next year. the militia force of the State will
have to be invoked TO prevent their inva-
sion. He adds that he trusts that the State
will not be put to this expense. but, in his
opinion. IL the Interior Department is in
active, it is the only course that can be
adopted as preventive of much trouble. in
which expense and possible bloodshed will
be involved.
A report on the governors letter was re-
ceived from Washington yesterday from the
General Land Office at Washington. to
which the governors complaint had been
referred by the Secretary of the Interior.
This report gives no assurance that any
more effective measures will be taken by
the Federal authorities to control the In
dians on the Utah reservations. In the
main it is defence of the previous course
of the Government. and its tenor is shown
by the following excerpt:
I'm reply / have to say that it has been
the policy of this office to prevent. so far
as possible, Indians belonging TO the vari-
Gus reservations throughout the country
from causing trouble to State authorities
and settlers by leaving their reservations
and committing hunting or other depreda-
tions. In the present case repeated in
structions have been given to the United
States Indian agents Of the Uintah and
Ouray agencies to take such precautions as
might be necessary to prevent the Indians
in their charge from entering Colorado and
committing depredations"

DEEP RIVER Conn. Dec. 20-Harry
D. Tyler the watchman who killed one of
four bank burglars last week, has resigned.
The nervous strain following the shooting

break in. He fired his pistol and one OF
the men dropped dead. The others es
capped.
Tyler is thirty years old, tall, slender,
and fair haired, with blue eyes and a quiet
manner He has gained a equation for
self control and judgment. The directors
OF the Deep River Savings Bank year ago
heard that afe-blowers intended to rob
the institution and selected Tyler as a
man who would make good fight against
them when they tried II.
Tyler finished his last night of watching

glad to put away his pistol and 10 away

$500 for his brave defence of their property
He refused ts withdraw his resignation
when offered more pay.
II must either get away from this place
or break down from this strain on my

A NEGRO MURDERER KILLED.
Miners Avenge the Death of Super-
intendent White.

DUNBAR, Pa. Dec. 20.-Sanford White,
superintendent of construction for the w.
J. Rainey Coke Company. at Mount Brad
dock Works, was shot yesterday by
Caleb Pierce. a negro laborer. and died
while being taken to the hospital. The
murderer fed for the hills, followed by
a crowd of citizens and workmen, and was
finally overtaken and shot seven times.
The trouble began with quarrel be-
tween Pierce and Richard Cunningham,
superintendent of the Mount Vernon Works
of the w. ]. Rainey Company, over ques-
ton of work. White interfered in behalf
OF Cunningham. and the negro drew re-
volver from his pocket and fired, the ball
penetrating Whites abdomen. Immediately
after firing Pierce ran for his life, with
more than 200 persons in hot pursuit. He
was chased for two miles before his would
be captors came within shooting distance.
The negro held the revolver in his hand
as the mob rushed on. He dropped the re-
volver and begged his captors not TO lynch
him. With an oath one OF the mob shot,
and fusillade OF bullets followed. The
negro. who was still alive, though shot
seven times, was about to be kicked TO
death when an official of the coke works
begged for his life. The same men who
had done the shooting then improvised
stretcher and started to carry Pierce back
TO the hospital. He died on the way.
Pierce's slayers claim the killing was not
a lynching but was only fatal intercep-
tion OF an escaping murderer. However,

| NEW YORK, Dec 20-Before the New
York Academy of Medicine, at Ii West
| Forty-third Street, last night. DIR. Henry
paper on the subject Of premature burials
and a demonstration was made by Emile
Camis, of Paris. Of an apparatus designed
to save life when person has been buried
before death. The apparatus is the inven-
tion Of Count Michael de Karnice Karnicki,
I Chamberlain of the Gear of Russia, and
now is exhibited for the first time in this
country.
DR.. Garrigues paved the way for the cx-
bibition by declaring his belief that cases
of persons being buried alive are moderate
ly frequent. Among the reasons for this
opinion he enumerated numerous instances
in which persons have narrowly escaped
burial alive, the unreliabilits of the So
called signs Of death, with the sole excep
tion of decomposition OF vital organs; the
absence of proper laws TO protect the ap-
parently dead against burial alive. and the
carelessness with which death certificates
are signed by physicians.
He told Of reported case AT Tonawanda,
N. Y, in February last, when a grave was
opShNu anu SNiuShNc lounu lit
a man, had revived in his coffin. broken
the glass above his face and bled to death
from wounds received in doing so.
DR.. Garrigues declared himself in favor
Of waiting mortuaries, where bodies could
lie kept until decomposition should begin,
and said that changes were needed in the
laws governing burials.
Mr.. Canis speaks no English. and when
ii came t. describing and illustrating his
apparatus he called upon an assistant. who
did the verbal part while he manipulated
the machine. 1t is called lie Karnice,"
after the Inventor. 1t was explained that
the suggestion came to Count Karnicki aft
er seeing young girl. al whose funeral he
was assisting. suddenly revived.
The apparatus consists of a tube four
inches in diameter, one end resting on the
coffin ard the other end connected with
rectangular metallic box containing sig
nails This box alone is visible above the
grave. The other parts are buried in the
ground. a metal rod passes through the
axis of this tube, its lower end projecting
into the casket and the upper end in COM
munioation with signals on the metallic
box.
Should any movement of the body occur
il would touch tle end of the rod project
ing into the coffin. This would release a
spring in the box. Its lids would fly open,
a signal consisting of a rod topped by
ball and lying fat on the grave would be
thrown into a perpendicular position, and
a bell set ringing loud enough TO be heard
several hundred feet away and continuing
for half an hour.
BY the opening of the apparatus light and
air are admitted through the tube into the
coffin. Ii is so arranged that II cannot be
opened from the outside and the coffin re-
mains sealed until the rod projecting into
the coffin is disturbed from the inside

RELEASED THE SUSPECT.
An Alleged Mpracrer and Postohacs
Robber Escapes.

MARTINSBURG, W. Va, Dec. 20.-Dep-
! uty United States Marshal Paulding. Of this
/, place, telegraphed Sheriff Elliott, of Elk
| hold the nan arrested there on suspicion
! of being Newton ]. Dcman, charged with
the murder of the Kessler family in Nor
gan county, robbing a postoffice in Jeffer-
son county, and other crimes. Marshal
Paulding requested that the prisoner be
| held at all hazards, as he had positive proof
| that he was Doman.
The sheriff has replied that he no longer
had the man in custody, having released
him on receipt of a message from Sheriff
Harmison, of Morgan county, to the effect
that a photograph of the prisoner sent to
the Morgan county sheriff had convinced
! him that the prisoner was not Doman.
1t seems that after the suspects arrest.
on November 29, the deputy was notified
and agreed to go for the prisoner. but
failed to dc So and finally Sherir Harmi-
son sent word TO release him.
At the same time letter from Paulding
asking that he be held was on its way, and
Doman was put under surveillance for sew
eral days, but not formally arrested, as
the Elkhart county sheriff was afraid the
whole affair would prove a fash in the
pan, and he did not desire to run the risk
of civil action for damages, especially as
lawyer was urging the suspect to take such
steps.
No further word came from Paulding.
and last Saturday the supposed Doman dis
appeared from Elkhart. The authorities
there. however, claim they will be able to
locate and arrest him as soon as the West
Virginia authorities back their promises
with action that shall be legally safe.
The Elkhart sheriff says the local author
ities are at a loss to understand the hesi-
fancy that has characterized the West Vir-
ginia officers.
They think that il the suspect is ever
proven to be the real Doman, his escape
can be charged to the vacillating policy OF
sonal and official vindication. however.
they would like to see the suspect shown
to be DOMAIN If he is not the man wanted.
