SIXTY HORSES BURN.
FIRE DOES 1888, 900 DAMAGES

Flames, Which Start in Livery Stable,
Sweep Nearly a Square of Buildings
Veteran Who Helped to Capture
jeff Davis Is Dead.

Fire which broke out in the large
stable of the Allegheny Transfer Com
pany at Sixteenth street and Liberty
avenue, Pittsburg, at 2 o'clock Tuesday
morning resulted in a loss of at least
S263, 900, distributed over a greater por-
ton of the block bounded by Sixteenth
and Seventeenth streets and Liberty ave-
nue. and Spring alley. The blaze orig
mated in the stables supposedly from the
overturning of a lantern setting fire to
some hay. There were 12S horses in the
stable, and sixty of them were either
burned to death or so badly hurt that
they had to be killed. In addition to the
loss of the stables, the four-story brick
storage house of the Pittsburg Glass
Company was partly destroyed, three
two7story dwellings, in Spring alley, oc-
cupied by foreigners, were ruined, and
considerable damage was done to the
Comstock Brass Manufacturing Com
pany, the Theumber Manufacturing
Company and several small storage
houses

NEVADA PIUTEs SCALP WHITES.
Las Vegas Valley AMI It's People ut
Mercy of Redskin Outlaws.


Mercy of Redskin Outlaws.
Las Vegas valley, the extreme south
ern end of Nevada, is at the mercy of
redskin outlaws and the entire region,
embracing several hundred square miles,
is in a state of terror. An uprising of
the desperate Piutes has occurred and
their deeds are as bloody as those of the
Apaches twenty years ago. Two hun
dred white ranchers and miners are scat
tered over the desolate territory and the
life of every one is in imminent peril.
Marvel and Phoebe, the county seat, 200
miles away, are the nearest points, and
there is not even a deputy sheriff in the
valley. which is remote from civilization.
Already three atrocious murders have
been committed and alarming reports are
received indicating that wholesale butch
cries may be expected. Sunday Charles
Stewart and George Latimer left their
ranch at Indian Greek for a day, leaving
William Williams, worthy and trusted
man, in charge. When they returned
next day his swollen body lay in the
hot sun on the porch, blood oozing from
u bullet wound in the back. He had
been shot presumably while asleep and
then scalped "Cochi,' Piute, who had
been hanging around, was missing. A
posse went after him and after a long
chase he was captured. He is said to
have been executed summarily after con-
Tossing the terrible deed. The same day
the bodies of two unidentified prospec-
tors were found at Ash Meadows shot
and scalped and otherwise mutilated.

RELIANCE HOLDS CUP
SHAMROCK FAILS TO FINISH IN
DECIDING TEST.
Americas Trophy Remains Safe in
Yankee Yachtmen's Hauds-Interna-
tiona1 Struggle Ends in Fog Amid
Cheers of Spectators.

The Reliance on Thursday won the
third and final race in the series for the
Americas cup. In a dense fog which
prevented vision beyond 200 yards she
finished at $4,000, thus keeping the
famous yachting trophy in America. The
Shamrock Ill, the British challenger
after running for more than an hour in
the fog, missed the finish line, passed by
and chen returned to it from the oppo-
site direction. The Shamrock did not
cross the finish line.
Rarely if ever has there been more
spectacular finish than the Reliance's.
After racing for more than an hour
through binding fog the Reliance burst
through the wall of mist upon the vision
of the spectators on the feet at the fin
ish and, heeling under a great bellying
balloon jib topsail until her lee rail was
awash, flew across the line.
Wind Freshens for the Start.
When the yachts reached the lightship
for the start gentle southeast wind of
five knots gave little promise that this
was to be the final race, but a shift of
the wind to the south shortly after noon

ATTACKS THE GRADED SCHOOLS.
Professor Says Nature and Memory
Studies Should OCCUPY EIGHT Years.

DIR. D. W. Dennis of Earlham Coz
legc, in an address before the Nigo Coun-
ty teachers at Terre Haute, said the
course of obstruction in the graded
schools was wrong because the pupil un-
der 10 was forced to use reasoning fac
uities that should be spared. Grammar
and, arithmetic could be taught in few
months after the pupil is Ii years old.
By rearranging the system a student
would be ready for a college at 16 in
stead of 10 and 20 years of age. Nature
and memory studies should occupy the
eight years Of the grades.

Kenosha Youth Shoots at Sisters Hus-
band at Altar in Her Home.
One of the most tragic events ever
known in Kenosha occurred at $50
o'clock the other night at the home of
r. H. Marshall, when q son, Earl Mar
shall, 90 years of age, fired two shots
into wedding party. 1t is supposed he
intended to take the life of J. w. Rob-
erts of Dudley, Iowa, who had just been
married to Marshalrs sister. In the con-
fusion Marshall ran from the house and
escaped. Miss Nellie Marshall was the
bride and about thirty friends and rela-
tiyes of the family had gathered to wit
ness the nuptial ceremony. The guests
had gathered in the parlor of the house
for the ceremony, but the face of young
Marshall was missing. He had been ask
ed to attend the ceremony, but on account
of his opposition to the wedding had de-
clined the invitation Just rs the cere-
mony was concluded young Marshall en-
tered and began firing. His shots went
wild and no one was hurt. One of the
bullets whizzed past the head Of the
groom, narrowly missing the minister,
while the other passed over his fathers
head.

NOTE TELLS OF MURDER.
Aged Couple Killed and Letter Ex-

Aged Couple Killed and Letter Ex~
poses Crime-Adopted Son Missing.
"Mr. and Mrs. W. III. Yeater have bin
killed. please report" This message,
found in the mail box few hundred
yards from the Yeater farm home near
Warrenton, Mo-, by Otto Gugemous,
rural carrier was the first information
of a double murder. The writing in the
note is declared by friends to be that OF
William e. Church, an adopted son OF
the Yeaters. The young man is missing.
Gubemous first showed the note to sew
cral persons in the Yeater neighborhood,
all of whom thought it jest. Marshal
Morsey, q friend of the Yeaters, thought
the matter serious enough to demand an
investigation. He Immediately sent
messenger to the Yeater home. The
messenger, accompanied by a number of
neishbors, went to the house, and upon
opening the bedroom door they found
the couple murdered. The throats of
both had been cut, and the woman APP
parently had struggled for her life. The
only other member of the household is
Church, the adopted son, aged p, who
has not been seen by any of the neigh
bors for several days. When Church left
the house he apparently took all his
wearing apparel. In an adjoining room
on the floor We're four empty shells from
a revolver. 1t is known that Yeater
owned such n revolver, and this also is
missing. 1t is known that Yeater re-

quarters of an hour the only variation
was a slow gain by the leading boat.
Then at APO, with almost half the course
yet to be sailed, thick bank of fog came
rolling in before southeast wind ard
enveloped the Shamrock. The Reliance
ran along for five minutes longer until
the fog bank reached her, then she felt
a heavier wind from the southeast,
smothered her spinnaker and sped for
ward toward final victory. When she
finished the whistles of every craft in
the feet opened wide in recognition Of
her achievement. The American yachts
men danced about the deck of j. T. Nor
gan's yacht, the Coraair, and congratu-
lated one another.
