Kill IA INDIANS.
Nevada Horse Thieves Massacre
a Band of ShOshOnes.
Bury the Bodies in Trenches in
Elk County.

Washington, Dec. Fourteen Sho-
shone Indians are supposed to have
been killed and their bodies with those
of their horses to have been buried in
two trenches in Elk county, Nevada,
according to a communication sent to
the department of justice by T. Barley
Lee, prosecuting attorney for Cassia
county, Idaho, who seeks to have the
department aid in bringing the mur-
derers. who are said to be white horse
thieves, to justice.
The attorney writes that his inform
erS are three Indians, whose wives and
children were among those slaughter ed
by white men and their remains con-
cealed and burned. Coincident with
the report of the murder, according to
Attorney Lees letter, three bad char
acters disappeared from the vicinity of
the crime, one of whom brought the
first report of a crime having been
committed.
Rumors of the massacre drifted into
Albion, Idaho, last July according to
Mr.. Lee. Upon investigation an old
wagon and two trenches hastily COW
cred, it is said. were found. The
trenches, it is alleged, contained a
number of carcasses, probably those of
horses, and it Is supposed the bodies of
the Indians were beneath them.
Mr.. Lee in his letter says he has
brought the matter to thesattention of
the department for the reason that
there has been little activity shown on
the part of the Nevada officers to bring
the Slayers to Justice.

dragged her upstairs in the laundry,
where he attacked her. After the as
sault she began to cry and Glover
grasped her by the throat and choked
her to make her stop crying. Glover
had a revolver in his hand at the time,
but she never touched the revolver. He
threatened to kill her if she told what
had occurred. Breaking away from
Glover she ran and as she reached the
bottom of the stairs she heard one
shot When she reached the foot of
the stairs the door was locked and
she went out through window, going
directly to the Glover home, where she
hid under the bed in the guest cham
ber%
She remained there until she was
discovered on the night of the follow
ing Tuesday. During the time she was
under the bed she had nothing to eat
or drink, she said, nor did she see
Mrs. Glover, Mr.. Elmore or Mr.. and
Mrs. Freeman. In the statements made
to the police Hattie said she had new
er seen the revolver before the night
that Glover was killed. He had never
before pointed a revolver at her. She
did not try to get the weapon away
from Glover. She did not see. anyone
else in the laundry. If any one else
had been there she would not have
seen the person, she said, because of
the darkness.
She was asked if she had tried to
shoot Glover during the struggle and

helm der Crosse which lost a propeller
in midocean last Monday arrived today
several hours ahead of her expected
time. The accident happened in fine
moderate weather. Captain Polack
says no wreckage was struck and there
was only a slight jar. With the drop
ping of the propeller the balance tank
filled with water, which brought the
stern down to the usual bearings.
Investigation showed the tail shaft
was broken off. the stern tube out
board was ripped off and the propeller
carried away. There was little excite
ment among the passengers which was
speedily allayed by Captain Polaclx,
who explained the accident. The
steamer proceeded under the starboard
engines, making II " knots thereafter.
Although the Kaiser had hoisted two
black balls on the forestay to indicate
"unmanageable, not under control"
the vessel was handled without diff

assistance of tugs sent by the company
was refused by the captain

FOR RIVERS AND HARB0RS
Seventh Annual Congress Convenes
With Large Attendance.

Washington, Dec. THE seventh
annual gathering of the National
Rivers and Harbors congress opened
a three days session today with dele
gates from all sections of the country
in attendance. President Taft's well
coming address was the first on the
program and while it was very brief
carried a statement that proved un-
usually interesting to his hearers.
President Taft said the Importance of
river navigation had decreased of
late years with the development of
railroad facilities. The problem that
now confronted his hearers, he de-
clared, was the union and co-opera-
ton of railroads and rivers. The ter
minal difficulties of river transporta-
tion must be overcome, the president
said, before this problem could be
solved. A recapitulation of the har-
Dor and river Improvement work ac-
complished and under consideration
in Mexica was presented in the ad-
dress of Senor De La Barra, the Mexi-
can ambassador, who followed Presi-
dent Taft.
Representative Alexander of New
York, chairman of the house commit
tee on rivers and harbors, declared
that to favor the improvement of riv-
erS and inland waterways tranSpOrta-
tion generally had become the fash
ion. This was due, he believed, to the
activity of the National Rivers and
Harbor congress
The congressional committees, Mr..
Alexander said, were at work on a
bill which they hoped to present next
week which would provide for annual
appropria ton for inland waterways.
This he declared to be the only reason
able way to accomplish the desired
ends.
Referring to the presidents re-
marks, Mr.. Alexander said that just
as surely as trade follows the flag.
would commerce follow and fill per-
manently improved channels of the
Ohio, Mississippi and Missouri rivers

F Washington. Dec. with a view
to reaching a satisfactory determine

Interstate commerce act to telegraph

state commerce commission today gave
hearing to officials of telegraph and

Some of the questions presented to
the conference were: What telegraph
and telephone companies are subject
to the act 2'' May such companies is
sue franks emitting to free interstate
service or may they grant free inter
state service?- "Are telegraph and
telephone companies required to file
with the commission their tariffs of
charges?" Does the law forbidding
rebates and undue preference apply to

1t was not the purpose of the COM
mittee to determine the status of any

duce discussion of the meaning and
application of the law to the new

CHAINED TO WHEELBARROW

In writing of the Schlusselburg prison In NC
Cures David Soskice tells of prisoner who was
chained to wheelbarrow:
"Schedrin had been condemned to hard labor In
the convict mines of Siberia and for an atmmept
to escape from there had been sentenced to be
chained to heavy wheelbarrow. When the order
for his transfer from Siberia to st. Peters
burg. conveyance could be found large enough
to contain him. the wheelbarrow and the convoy
of gendarmes. Yet the wheelbarrow had be-
a part of the prisoner the gendarmes were
afraid to leave it behind. 1t was therefore de-
cided to place Schedrin with his convoy in one cart
and the wheelbarrow behind in another. For
eral months, day and night, Schedrin and the gen
darmes galoped through Siberia troika Ia
threehorsed cart sedge), while another sped
behind them, upon which the wheelbarrow reposed
causing the deepest amazement among the peas
ants in the villages through which they passed
Upon the arrival of the prisoner in S. Peter and
Paul he was once again chained to the barrow.
and only after he had been six weeks in the
Schluesseburg he finally detached from it and
given freedom of movement within the narrow
confines of his cell.
when they unclaimed me- said Schedrin sub
seQuently. I could not get enough movement
wanted to run and run. and 1t seemed to me that
could stop. How strange it is that men
who enjoy perfect freedom of movement never
realize the wonderful happiness that is thers!'"

NO CHANCE FOR A BARBER
One Time That Adjutant Had to Re-
frain from Use of His Pet
Phrase.

At one of the old volunteer camps
the newly appointed adjutant of a Ger.
tain metropolitan corps contracted a
little habit of telling off men on pa.
rade to get their hair cut, as much
to their annoyance as to the amuse.
ment of onlookers.
One morning, after having told of
about half a dozen men in this man.
ner, he came to somewhat old
stager whose hair at the back was
perhaps just long enough to take
away from smart appearance, but
jutant.
The latter's method of procedure
was to pass behind the men and push
the culprit's peak cap ,over his nose,
at the same time shouting, Hair cut
here!"
AS sure as fate, when the adjutant
came to the longservice man he
promptly told him off. and automat.
ically pushed his cap forward. But
oh. horrors. What pity!
"Er-er as you were," murmured
the adjutant The man was as bald
as a billiard ball, with the exception
of thin. gray line" of hair which
could be seen just below the band of
his cap at the back of his head.

last post marked the second stage in
Mr. Mudge's upward course. Thence
he went to higher and higher posi-

two more steps he was the general
