OLD INDIAN BATTLE GROUND.
Tokens Of Peace and War Found In tn.
Kennewick Valley, Washington.

Tokens OF Peace and War Found In the
Kennewick Valley, Washington.
Where the great steel bridge OF the
Northern Pacific railway spans the
Columbia river, half way between Spo-
kane and Seattle, Washington, and
near the confluence of the Snake and
Columbia livers there was fought sixty
years ago battle to the death between
two Indian tribes, probably the Cay
uses and the Wallahwallhs or the
Clhollhs. which latter tribe was reck-
less and thieving one.
Great Irrigating Ditch Completed.
The railway company has recently
completed great irrigating ditch 25
miles long and 20 feet wide that is
turning this valley adjacent to the
west bank of the Columbia from sage
brush plane into what few years
hence will be an orchard and garden
spot 20 miles square, with a climate
peculiarly adapted, it is said, to rails
ing all sorts of vegetables, berries,
peaches, apples, plums, cherries and
alfalfa. In the tearing up process an
old Indian battle ground has been found
on the, came spot where Lewis and
Clark, the pioneer explores, pitched
their camp and from which they
pushed their way up stream to the
mouth of the Yakima river in the year
1905. s.-...t.= ....
Famous Generals Fought There.
This is all historic ground as at a
later date Grant and Sheridan and
other noted army officers were sta
toned in this vicinity-Grant in 1852
81 Sheridan in 1866. both of them
taking part in repelling Indian upris-
ings. In this old battle ground, and
first by means of well, there was un-
earthed recently, skeletons, flint lock
rifles, Indian beads, brass badges bear
ing date of 1S46, broken hatchets,
spear heads, elks teeth and piece Of
cloth or mating spun from threads of
weeds or hemp. Every thing went to
show that this part of the Kennewick
valley was at one and the same time
an old Indian battle and burying
ground, as it is now known that the
Indians congregated here in great mum.

So, 100000.

A charter was granted today to the
Nebraska, Kansas & Gulf Railroad
company, which proposes to build the
new north and south line through Sa-
lima to connect northern and central
Kansas with a gulf line at Fort Smith,

The company is Incorporated for 81

are John Lambert of Joliet, III repre-
senting the Illinois Trust and Savings

Kansas City; H. +. ReddiDg of Kansas
City, who is the attorney for the COM
panys William Kenehck of Kansas
City. the head of a firm of railway con-
tractors, and Martin WOllman and
George Wolff, also Of Kansas City.
The charter gives the company the
right to build a road from the north
line of Kansas south through Republic,

Sedgwielx and CoWley counties the
southern terminus to be Fort Smith.
Ark. The application for the charter
and the application fee of $25 came to
the secretary Of state today In a letter
from Mr.. Redding:
It is supposed that this company is
only promoting the new line for the
purpose of selling it to some establish
ed system. The probability is that it
is to be connected with the Burlington
system. The Burlington already has
line running from the northeast into
Concordia. A road from there south
would give direct connections from
Omaha into the great Kansas wheat
belt BY extending the line from Con-
cordia north to the state line it would
connect with the main line of the Bur
lington from Denver and also connect
with the Burlington line to Montana
and the northwest. If the connection
were made at Superior, Neb- it would
strike the southern terminus of the
Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley,
which reaches up into the Black Hills
and is part Of the Chicago Great West
ern system. This would give both of
these lines short connection through
the Kansas wheat belt to the Gulf Of
Mexico.
The permanent survey for the line has
already been made from Salina to a
point north of Minneapolis, and is be
ing pushed as rapidly as possible The
next thing viii be the voting of the
bonds asked for by the company, and
if they are voted the road will prob
ably be speedily built.

TILLMAN CASE GOES OVER.
Won't Be Tried for Murder Until
July.

Columbia, S. c., April 8.-Following
yesterdays Indictment by the grand
jury OF former Lieutenant Governor
Tillman for the murder of Editor
Gonzales, in this city. last January, and
the fixing of today as the arr:aignment
of the prisoner the counsel for the de-
Tense this morning asked for a contin-
uance of the case until the July term
Of the court and the request was grant
ed. The grounds upon which the con-
tinuance was requested by the defense
were the absence of two witnesses, who
the defense alleges are of great import
ance to the case.
It is stated that one Of the witnesses,
Captain w. j. White is expected to tes-
tify that Mr.. Gonzales went to the
state house before the tragedy and in
quired for Tillman stating that he had
once made Tilman show the white
feather and would do so again.
The defense also maintains that Il
Miss Roper, a trained nurse who claims
that she heard Gonzales bitterly de-
nounce Tillman could not be present for
testimony.
Affidavits were presented to the effect
that Captain White was i'll and that
Miss Roper was in New York city.
The prosecution, through Solicitor Thur
mnnd and Colonel Andrew Crawford, ar
gued that the defense had not complied
with the ruling of the court and that theI e
was not a sufficient showing on which to
ask for a continuance and that the case
should go to trial.
After a fun discussion Judge Klugh rem
dered his decision continuing the case un-
til next July.
