INDIAN DEpREDATIONS
Attorneys In Town Taking Deposi-
lions In A Number OF Claims
Against the Government.

]. r. Hit, an attorney of Washing.
ton, and c. A. Allen, OF Hoopeston
H., were in the city on trip through
the territories of New Mexico and
Arizona taking testimony 10 a mum
Der of Indian depreciation claims. Mr..
Hit has made specially of this
branch of law for number of years
and is now repre- senting the Wells
Fargo company in number of claims
against the government for depreda-
tions committed by Indians during the
period of 1866 and 1867. His compa-
MON, Mr.. Allen, represents the gov
ernment as special attorney.
The claims arise from the action Of
the government in assuming RESPONSE
bility for depredations that might be
committed by Indians who were not in
state of actual hostility at the time
These claims are very numerous and
very heavy.
The two lawyers made the trip
through New Mexico and Arizona,
stopping at Las Cruces, Santa Fee, No
gales and other places, for securing
dispositions and affidavits from old re-
sidents and procuring auth critics.
While in Ell Paso they interviewed a
number of old citizens whose deposi
tions they desired to use in their work.
Mr.. Hit was seen while IN the city
by 6 HERALD reporter, but declined to
give any further details of his work.
He added, however, that he expected
to be here again In the course of few
months and then he might have some
thing more definite to tell.
Mr.. HIT Is a cousin of Congressman
Hit, of Illinois, and q well known and
prominent man in Washington for the
past forty years or more and has seen
she Inauguration of every president
from Van Buren, to Mckinley and
was intimately acquainted with Lin
coin.
Mr.. Allen is prominent in politics in
Illinois on the republican side and has
served several times in the legislature.

Six Amerioans Reported Killed.

A letter has been received in Fl Paso from Guaymas, Mexico, stating that six American prospectors-Dave Cusiek Jack Eldridge, George Lunt, Chas. Burns, Lon Webster and Henry Will liams-were found eating and chat ting with band of Yaquis, who were surrounded and surprised by the sol diers under General Torres, and that the General, believing the Americans had been fighting in the ranks of the Indians, ordered them lined up and shot, which order was executed with out giving the doomed Americans hearing.
 According to the story from Quay mas, the Americans were down on the southeast side of the Bacatete Noun tains prospecting for gold when they met band of Yaquis, and, desiring to cultivate their friendship, invited the red men to break bread and eat salt with them. While the Indians and the pale faces were eating they were surprised by Mexican soldiers, who de- manded the surrender of the diners.
 Thinking they had nothing to fear from the soldiers of civilized country, the Americans offered no resistance. But from the fact that they were arm ed to tie teeth, as the saying goes, and were found in company of enemies of the Mexican government, it seems that General Torres jumped to the conclusion that the Americans had been fighting with the Indians, and ordered that the prospectors be shot without trial

The Florence Reservoir.

From the Native American of Phoenix.l
 The Florence TRIBUNE, one of our valued exchanges, would like to hear from us on the reservoir-for-the-Pi Indians question: The Native Ameri- can doesn't believe for minute, dear Mir. TRIBUNE, that you are actuated by purely unselfish motives and simple love for him in your efforts to secure the necessary appropriation for the building of the reservoir. Our white brother is absolutely certain to get his share of the profits and benefits. However, this enterprise is good one and we indorse it. We think the re- servcir should be built and by govern ment aid, too, but not solely by the government and not entirely for the natives. We object to being the pets of the government. We are no better than other humans whose skin is not red. We want the water, but we want to do our share toward it's storage. We may be paqpers financially, but no. physically, thank God and not in ambition and energy.
 If the government will put up the money thousand of our able bodied Pimas will donate the labor, and the dam will soon be an accomplished fact. And then we don't want the sole ben efits resulting. We want our white brothers to come in and settle with us and share the spells of labor. Per haps our gentleness and hospitality will temper their sel6shness and greed, and we will both be better for the contact. Let us all work together for the reservoir.
 Tn the language of the poets, it will Le seen that the Native American is sonto' us.l

The English as lndustrial Promoters.
From the Jou.nal-Miner.l


 One of the results of the war in South Africa, whether the British triumph or not, will be the aban- donment of that section as gold mining center to operate in, especially by English capital Telegrams received since hostilities opened state that in the aggregate forty-seyen claims, on which were as many quartz mills, dropping on an average fifty stamps to the mill. and owned exclusively by English capital, were idle and in many instances ruined. Another startling disclosure is that all the bullion of these combined plants, aggregating in value nearly $30e,0 ,00e which was stored away, has been simply con fiscated by the Boer government and receipt rendered in payment therefor at some future time. With all these vexotious and uncertain conditions to face an industry, in country which must of necessity be unsettled for years to come as result of the con aict now going on, the intimanon of English capital to day to keep away ! from that country under all condi- tions, is certainly judicious one.
 Aside from Africa, of any other country, where in the past British capital has been in evidence in mia i ing operations. no one will deny the assertion that English money is far more desirable than any other in open l ing up tse resources of new mining i country, or for that matter any sec tion established in it's hidden wealth. It seems to be characteristic of those people to speculate frantically and at l times even stubbornly on mining.
 In Arizona in the past, or for that matter at the present, English capital is doing more to show up the country and materially develop it than eau be accredited to any other foreign financial channel. The famed Kimberly 1 diamond mines and gold veldt of South Africa owe their enormous production and development to the Briton, solely, i In the west the same industrial fea- I lures are face to face with us in hun dreds of instances. With such a i fo-lorn state of affairs to confront English capital, such as the Transvaal and other South African countries offer for the future on one hand, and on the other the stability and fairness ! of Ameriean laws in fostering and pro tecting aliens, and especially to those engaged in the mining industry, the future certainly offers a greater in- 1 ducement for capital of this nature to all who come along Especially SO must the Arizona field be rightfully considered in this regard Aside from the delicaey of the great conflict, in an i industrial sense, in the long run the most bitter hater of English principles of a traditional or other character must agree, nevertheless, that English promoters are liberal and steadfast, and in mining especially is this un- controvertible.

As to the Kina.

Col. Epes Randolph gives out the following information concerning the King;
 q am sorry to find among tue people of Yuma so entire misapprebension of the relations which exist between S. Morgan Smith and the King of Arizona company. Mr. Smith, as a matter of fact, as we claim, has entirely failed in many important particulars to comply with the contract made with our company by himself and Blaisdell. At no time, however, has it been our purpose or desire to restrict the contractors to their legal rights only. ] am amazed that Mir. Smith should make and swear to the state ments which are contained in his complaint which has been filed at Yuma. Mir. Smith Cor his agents) has disseminated copies of this complaint broadcast throughout the country and he seeks to convey the impression that we are attempting to deprive him, by fraudulent methods, of all compensa
 tion for the money and time spent by him and his partner. As matter of fact, we made every honest endeavor to adjust matters with Mr. Smith amicably. We offered him all of the money which his books show that h e has spent, with twenty-five per cent profit upon such sum and an additions
 al one thousand dollars a month for l his own services from the date of the
 exeeuti on of the contract to the time 1 of the offer. This offer was made to l him in Los Angeles about thirty days | ago, in the Hollenbeck hotel, in the 1 presence of his son and counsel and II. ! B. Gleason, formerly of Yuma. When 1 he declined this offer We offered to 1 give him stock iD the company in re-
 turn for all of the money which his books show that he invested, at the
 same price that we paid the original | prospectors for the stock nearly three years ago, without allowing ourselves interest upon the money whic h was 1 then paid. This offer he likewise i d eclned.
 "We regret the inevita ble litigation,
 but feel that we have honorably ex- i hausted every effort to effect a fair 1 settlement, and if Mir. Smith should
 find himself at law entitled to less
 than we have offered him, he can
 blame nothing but his own cupidity."

TWO WOMEN.

I know two women. One is chaste And cold as the snow on winters waste; Stainless ever, in act and thought, (As man born dumb in speech errs not.) But she has malice toward her xind A crueltongue and jealous mind. Void of pity and full of greed. She judges the world by her narrow creed ! A brewer of quarrels and breeder of hate, Yet she has the key to "Society's'' gate, The other woman, with heart of fiame Went mad for love that marred her name And out of the love of her murdered faith She rose like Q soul that had passed thro'
 death.
 Her aim is noble, her pity broad It covers the world like the mercy of God. A healer of discord, soother of woes, Peace follows her footsteps wherever she
 goes;
 The worthieF life of the two, no doubt, And yet Society" shuts her out.
 -IElla Wheeler Wilcox.

THE attempted assassination of Governor Gobel in Frankfort, Ken lucky, last Tuesday, is honnd to react on the perpetrators of the crime. The villain who fired the shots is not yet positively identified, but enough is known to render it certain that it was the continuation of dastardly con spiracy. Kentucky was well named the "dark and bloody ground" and there is likelihood of it becoming still more dark and bloody as the out come of this cowardly attack on the Democratic Governor-elect.
