Kentucky Posse and Mountaineers
Have Fierce Fight.
Nine men were killed and many others

ners Quarter House" three miles from
Middlesboro, Ky, Wednesday evening.
The "Quarter House" was saloon built
of logs, end it was strongly fortified and
defended by twenty-five armed mountain
eers. Over sixty men We're engaged IN
the conflict. The sherif's posse number
ed forty and they were opposed by TWEEN

Last month Turner, who is known and
feared as desperate character. had some
mules and other goods levied on for debt
and few nights ago he, with others,
went to Virginia. where the property was
taken. secured what was formerly mis-
and returned TO the Quarter House.

Britain would be a party to no such plan.
USsotiicially it was stated that England
regarded Austria in the matter as mere
~ a }nitter to sound her, and that be hind

France szad Russia.
This gentle reminder naturally nettled
Germally. the newspapers of which pro-
tested against the byplay in the British
Parliament as got up especially TO check
the growing good feeling between Ger
many and the United States and TO dis
turb the pleasant prospect of Prince
Henry's visit to America. As a counter
irritant this statement was given out in
blank:
The foreign Office declares. with al
positiveness, that Germany, neither be-
fore the outbreak of the Spanish Ameri-
can war nor during its course, proposed
Intervention to other powers. But the
German government. without exception,
maintained a negative attitude toward
such suggestions. 1t must further be re,
marked that it was not from an Austrian
source that such suggestions reached the
German government"
England did not rest quietly under the
implication conveyed by the statement
that the interfering suggestion emanated
from country other than Austria. which
meant that it did emanate from England,
and there came out of London timely dis
closures-unofIical. of course-that Amer
