The men were captured as they were
emerging from n piece OF woods about
two miles fro mtown. Although they
were armed with rifles, their ammuni-
ton had been used up in the night with
Lyons, and they offered no resistance.
The trouble between the Bronsons and
Lyons has been OF long Standing. but
the murder is supposed TO have been the
result OF excessive use OF intoxicants. A
large lumber company yesterday began
the distribution OF $50, 900 TO wage earnere

PATTERSON
GAVE LIE
TO CLARK

Washington. April 1.-The attention OF
the senate was divided yesterday between
the bill for the repeal OF the desert land.
the timber and atone and the homestead
commutation laws and the postoffice ap-
preparation bill.
The repeal bill was taken up only for
the purpose OF discussion and Mr. Clark
OF Wyoming was the principal speaker
He contested the position taken by Mr..
Gibson that there have been great frauds
IN the administration OF the land laws
In the west
He declared that there Is a lobby In
Washington IN the interest OF the repeal
bill and engaged in a short colloquy
with Mr.. Patterson during which each
characterized the statement of the other
as untrue
Mr. Clark criticised the operation OF the
forest reserve law. saying that under n
two thirds OF the area of his own country
had been Withdrawn from entry. This
was not the fault OF the law Mr.. Clark
spoke OF the work OF the commission re-
Gently sent into the west TO investgia
the operations OF land laws, and compli-
mented the president for his course In
this matter. Continuing he said
Never In the history OF land legisla-
ton has there been such a determined.
such harefaced lobby as IL benind hls
legislation. and which has been pressing
II for the past three years. IL is no Sc
cret that one OF the largest holders Of
these lands recently has boasted at a
public banquet that he had contributed
$4,000 for the purpose Of this bill.
Mr. Gibson and Mr. Patterson both de-
nnanded the name OF the man in ques-
tion, but Mr. Clark declined 10 give II
10 the senate. saying he would not enter
into personalities Of that character In the
senate. but he would give the name TO
any senator who might wish H.
Mr. Patterson demanded that Mr. Clark
should say who constitutes the lobby here
in the interest OF the repeal bill.
Mr. Clark again declined. but said the
senator from Colorado knew who con
stituted the lobby.
Mr. Patterson replied promptly say
ing. There is not one word OF truth In
that statement"
Mr. Clark replied that he had meant
merss" 10 say that Mr.. Patterson must
have observed the lobby. and ne with
drew the statement that the Colorado
senator had positive knowledge OF it's ex-
tstence.
The general debate on the postof1ce
bill was confined largely 10 a speech by
Mr.. McCreary and interruptions by Re
publican senators. Mr. McCreary charged
in the main that the policy OF an early
adjournment OF congress had been adopt
ed in order to avoid legislation not de-
sired by the Republican leaders.

OF the writer OF "ln the Red Hills" for

His short stories have already won Mr..
McCants an excellent and far-reaching
reputation. and this. his first effort at
long story. shows him as being ca
pable OF great things.
The scene lies in the South. The one
clearly in the foreground Is Billy Mason,
a young lawyer, who. as he Is pictured.
is indeed characteristic type OF the
young Southerner of those strenuous
times-not now. The opposite char.
aoter so to speak, Is Anne Chamblis, and
about the two Is woven the love story
that the reader expects.
The plot OF the tale is excellent-the
atmosphere really refreshing and whole
