ANOTHER FEUD MURDER
IN BREAIH|TT COUNTY
James Johnson, Nephew of ]. B.
Marcum, Slain by hummer
Spicer.
ASSASSIN IS AT LARGE

JACKSON. Ky. April News was re-
ceived here tonight that James Johnson
was shot and instantly killed by hummer
Spicer at the mouth of George creek, ten
miles south of here. Spcer was standing
in a houseboat in the river and Johnson
on a sandbar, and the shot was fired with
out warning and apparently without provo
cation.
Johnson is a nephew of j. B. Marcum.
who was assassinated in the Breathitt
county courthouse door year ago and
Spicer is a cousin of Sheriff Ed Callahan.
a leader of the faction which is charged
with bringing about Marcum's death.
The presence of the militia in Jackson
until nearly Christmas had a quieting
effect in Breathitt county. Johnson is
son of Mrs. Mary Johnson, sister of Mar
cum, who was an important witness in the
case against Curtis Jett and Thomas
White, convicted of Marcum's assassna-
ton. At last accounts Spicer had not
been arrested.

WAR CORRESPONDENTS
LOSE TWO SERVANTS

NIEU-CHWANG, April 1.-The authori-
ties here were considerably aroused to-day
by the arrival of a press boat, indscreetly
bearing two Japanese servants, who were
arrested and probably will not be released
FOR several months. On account Of the fact
that the Russians have not yet arranged
the local status of correspondents, such
indiscretions are apt TO be interpreted as
indicating cooperation with interests in
imical TO Russia, which may be inspiring
onerous conceptions of the situation in the
minds OF the war correspondents The en-
tire crew of the staff press boat are under
surveillance, and the vessel must leave on
the first favorable tide The correspond
ents are Richard H. Little, of the Chicago
News, and Mr.. Washburn. They are indig-
nant over their detention.
The Russian administration of this city
and port, so far, has been liberal 1t has
been managed in the interests of commerce.
allowing freedom to the cargoes and ships
and placing no restrictions on the use of
the railway and telegraph lines.

WHITE RIVER RISING
AGAIN 1T COLUMBUS
special to the indianapolis Journal.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
COLUMBUS, Ind, April 2.-The flood of
last week will be eclipsed IL White river
keeps on rising at the rate ii has been
coming up all day. There has been no rain
here for the past two days and some of
the streets are dusty, but the river is on
a boom. Last night the river began to
rise but reached stand at o'clock this
morning. At 8 o'clock a body of water
came down and the river came up one foot
in an hour. Since that time 1t has been
rising rapidly.
Flatrock river is rising and the back
water in Haw creek threatens to flood
again the foundry of Reeves e. Co. Blue
river was reperted TO be falling at Edin-
burg this afternoon. No serious damage
has been heard of since the recent flood,
but number of families are bloodhound.
The roads leading west and north of the
city are under water and farmers who
came 10 the city early this morning were
unable to reach their homes this evening

SUBMERGED DISTRICTS
EMERGE FROM FLOODS
River Has Receded from Turbu-
lent Condition and No Further
Danger Is Feared.
GUARDS DESERT POSTS
Broad Ripple Quiescent After
Flood Danger-Spectacular
Sights Seen.

After forty.eight hours of suspense, dur
ing which the residents along the borders
of Fall creek and White river were threat
ened with another flood, quiet now reigns
and affairs assuming their normal con-
ditions. That the fall Of the waters is
this time permanent is believed because
of the steadiness with which the streams
are receding. A week ago the fall of the
flood was quite as rapid as the rise, and
it YVES then predicted that the city would
be visited with another similar disaster.
At Broad Ripple fear for the worst had
not passed until 9 o'clock last night, when
the guards who had patrolled the banks of
the levee since early the night before re-
linquished their posts.
Sentinels trod the banks of the river all
day ready to give warning at moment s
notice, but last night the rise subsided, and
it is now believed that the floods of the
spring of 1904 are history.
The same conditions practically exist all
along the banks of the river and creek in
the city. The rise that for while early
yesterday morning threatened the North
Side districts had begun to recede last night
without any great damage to property.
Northwestern avenue is again clear and
street cars along this line are running
through to their destination. Back water
remains in the lowlands north of the broken
levee near Senate avenue, but 1t is thought
that will be clear in few hours.
Houses along Fall creek in the vicinity
of Indiana avenue, however, are still sur
rounded as is also the Riverside water
station. The break in the levee at this
place allowed clear sweep for the
flood and it will be several days before
Cerealinetown will again be above water.
The old pumphouse at the Indiana-avenue
water station is still immersed.
At midnight last night White river stood
at fourteen feet and five inches. just eight
inches less than the highest point reached
by the recent flood, and three feet and one
inch less than the high waters of week
ago. From about o'clock in the morning
until o'clock yesterday afternoon the
river practically stood at standstill, but
at 3 o'clock a slight fall was perceptibe,
which is continuing at about the rate of an
inch ali hour. Free from any debris what
ever the river, covering the broad expanse
of the lowlands, under the silver rays of
the moon presented spectacular scene.
The water is again out of the power house

MILITARY NAN SEES
THE PLOT OF RUSSIA

PARIS. April 2.-The military attache of
one of the emL-ssies says it is clearly part
of General Kuropatkins strategy to per-
NIT the Japanese to have a number of
small victories in northern Korea to draw
them northward toward Harbin. He adds:
These were the Russian tactics during
the Turkish war, they permitting the Turks
TO win small skirmshes which drew them
forward TO where the Russians were massed
at Plevna. Several victories in northern
Korea will so stimulate the Japanese am
bition that they will adopt the cry of ON
to Harbfn. which Is exactly the point to
them"

WILLIAhS-ARnSTRONG
Marriage of a We'll Known Phoenix
 Couple Last Night.

Mir. Alfred Brinsmead Williams and Miss Florence Louise Armstrong. were married last evening about o'clock by Rev. pr. Lewis Halsey at his resi- dence on East Van Ruren street.
 The wedding was announced some time ago in a formal way, though 1t WAS intended to be held very privately and was therefore witnessed only by the minister's family and Miss Hilda M. Ellingson and MT. Thomas J. Smith. who accompanied the principals as bridesmaid and best man. Mir and Mrs. Williams will occupy the Wool dridge residence on north Second avenue.
 Tho bride is the only daughter of Mir. and Mrs. A. A. Armstrong. who live in the capitol addition. She is well known in Phoenix, having resided here a long time and the city boasts of no more highly respected young woman. She is accomplished and is lib- orally endowed with those attributes that should make life a success and home happy.
 The groom has also lived in Phoenix for many years and is accounted one of the citys most successful young busi- ness men. Their prospects are fiatter- ing and they have host of friends whose congratulations will be sincere.
 AS the incident was entirely informal and no invitations were issued, there was no special demonstration on .he part of their friends, but during yester- day quite number of pleasing and ap propriate gifts were made by their
 ntimates who had been apprised of the important occasion.
 The groom having such a wide ac- quaintance it was also natural that life for him yesterday, was period of continuous surprises and he was all day long made the victim of the practical jokes of his friends
