WASHING TON, D. C., WEDNESDAY, JULY 14, 1880. TWO CENTS. The Reported Invasion of Indian ‘Territory. ‘The following dispatch was received by Ad- jutant General Drum last evening: Fort LEAVENWORTH, KANSAS, Jaiy 13th, 1890, Your dispatch of yesterday received. The Sensational reportsin the papers about inva- sion of Indian Territory are without any found- ation. Small parties of two or three men, with theimfamilies, occasionally enter the territory, misled by such reports, but are always met an turned back by the troops. That whole sec- Uon Is thoroughly scouted by troops, and any invasion of the least consequence I will report at once. It is useless to dignity these reports by any official notice or action beyond that taken by the troops along the line. Every one who enters without authority will be put Ko and such people will assuredly get ti of going in troops will et tired of putting them out. Ishould not cousider {tin any sense ex- pedient to undergo the expense and trouble of urylpg such people. It is precisely what they want, and would certainly result in their being discharged from custody. I consider the mili- tary forces now employed in this service abun- dantly able to keep the Indlan territory clear of unlawful intruders. I repeat herewith a dls- patch, dated yesterday, from the officertg com- Mand at Coldwell, just returned from Arkansas City, whence this expedition is said to have started. JNO. Pore, Brevet Major Gen., commanding. ‘The following Is the appended dispatch : “Just returned from Arkansas City. Not one word of truth in report about invaders. I be- leve Payne has gone into territory east. of Ar- kansas City about the 10th inst. Only three wagons have entered, and they were en route to Texas. This from reliable information. Will write you fully by mail this p.m. Roprnsox, commanding. sooner than the Death of Governor Campbe! John Atlan Campbell, who was governor of Wyoming territory under Gen, Grant. and af- terwards Chief Assistant Secretary of State, died at his residence in this city at 4 o'clock this morning. He had been In 11! health for ten years, He was born in Salem, Olio, and entered the three months service in April, 1861, and served continuousiy to the end of the war. He was In all of the engagements of the Army of | the Cumberland, and afterwards in the cl battles of the Army of the Ohto, where he Gen. Schofield’s adjutant general. He vas a gallant soldier, and was known to a wide circle of army friends as one of the most efficient staff officers at the front. He was a man of unusual executive ability, and had the warm e: all with whom he leas offictally associ: funeral will probably take place on Saturday. THE RGHr TREATMENT FOR GARROTERS.— When Jobn Monahan, who was convicted in San Francisco last week for robbery, was ar- Taigned for sentence, his counsel made a mo- Uon for a new trial,on the ground that the verdict was not supported by the evidence. Judge Freelon, in denying the motion, said that during all bis ¢riminal practice, whether as_an attorney for the defence or for the prosecution, or walle sitting aS'a judge on the beach, he had pever known a case in which the It of a de- fendant was more clearly made out than it had been in this. This was a genuine case of gar- roting, committed by a man who ts confessedly one Of the criminal Class, upon a half drunken toan-of-war sailor. ‘The court sald that this particular form of robbery called garroting was apt to be epidemic, It broke out every little while in all large cities, and it should be under- stood that, so far as this court had {tin its power, the crime of garroting, when clearly roved, would call forth a severe sentence. udge Freelon then sentenced Monahan to im- oe in the state prison for the term of years. His Wire's PaRaMour.—Near Albany, New York, Saturday night, Hiram G. Briggs, a well-known farmer, returned to his home unexpectedly, and found Erskine Wood, bis hired man, in Mrs. Briggs’ bedroom. Briggs at once drew his pistol aud shot Wood three Umes, inflicting wounds from which the latter dled the same day. A’ DOUBLE MURDER.—The Abingdon Standard Says that @ man of desperate character named Baker Mann, living in the neighborhood of Mock’s mill, Va.,was shot and killed by some un- known person on Tuesday last. He had de- serted his wife and taken up with a lewd woman named Martha Trent, and it is supposed he was killed by some one whose life he had threat- ened, probably on account of the woman. When found the woman was lying near him dead, with her throat cut from ear to ear. SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A MINISTER'S SON.— ‘The New York Trilwve publishes the followlog dispatch from Long Branch: “Charles Wallace, age twenty-two, a son of the Rev. Dr. A. Wal- lace, editor of the Ocean Grove Record, came to the ‘Branch’ on Saturday evening and took a room at the Arcade hotel. He rose last Sunday morning, and after breakfast strolled down to the beach. Keturning at about ten o'clock he ascended to his room on the second floor, and shortly after went out again. He had not been gone Jong when the housekeeper of the Arcade, rs. M. C. Lloyd, missed her watch and chain, which she had lett in her room. They were valued at $150. Suspicion rested at once upon young Wallace, and the police were requested ioarrest him. Search was made for him and continued until evening, but without success. A few minutes before the evening boat left the pier John Milan,an employe of the Arcade, went on board and discovered Wallace. He charged him with stealing the watch. ‘Let go of me,’ sald Wallace, ‘I know nothing of your watch” Atthat moment the chain of the watch dro from his trowsers leg upon the deck. Officer Fuiler, prooene down, took hola of the chain apd from the young man’s gaiter he drew the watch attached toit. When taken before Jus- tice Lane, at the police court, he admitted the theft, and said he had gary to plead ta ex- tenvation of his conduct. His Lighly respectable connections make the case of unusual interest, and much sympathy is felt for the parents of the wayward youth. Wallace was committed to the county jail.” THE REVENUE Habeas Corvus Casgs.—At Atianta, Ga., Judge Woods decided yesterday in the habeas corpus of revenue officers chi With the murder of Willfam Jones, that the United States had jurisdiction, and ordered the cases to be transferred from the state courts.

A Boy Cut By a CrRcuLaR Saw.—Monday evening a number of boys were playing in a Lancaster, Pa., saw mill, when William aged 13,.son of the proprietor, was p agalost a circular saw, which entered his right side, cutting a gash seven or eight inches deep and'penetrating the lobe of the lung toa di- tance of three inches. The right arm was com- pletely severed above the elbow, and the left arm was also badly cut. The boy’s recovery 13 very doubtful. A WIFE ACCUSED OF POISONING HER Hvs- BaND.—Coudersport, Potter county, Pa, isin a State of much excitement over a supposed case of murder in that quiet town.

When Mr. Tilden appear ex-Goy. Stevenson addressed him. He sai “The convention assembled at Cincinnati, nom- inated for President and Vice President General Winfield Scott Hancock and Hon. Wm. H. Eng- jish. The committze charged with the duty of injorming those eminent statesmen of the high u which has veen tendered to them, and which they have accepted, would have but hiit performed their duty it they did not come to pay homage to him who, by a large majority, Was elected four years ago. Your noble self denial in laying down all your claims to the exalted office of President of the United States because you cid not desire civil war, does not take in apy way from your noble and straight- forward character. There is still another act ot patriotic seif denial on record in your favor,and that is relinguishing all claims which you had on the people of the country tor a second _ term. For those acts of self denial and patriotism the democracy of the United States pray to the Almighty Power that your life may be prolonged for maby, very many years. and more particularly vhat you may live to see the country and its constitutional government relieved from many incumbrances heaped upon them, as well as the rectification of one of the basest frauds pel etrated upon the people by the overwhelmluz jefeat next November of the republican party Ispeak not only the voice of this committee, but the voice of the democratic party through- out this broad land, who unite in paying you homege simp}y because of your patriotism, virtue and exalted statesmanship. We know that the country and its constitution would have been as safely guarded by you as it was by Madison, Jefferson or Jackson had you been installed President.” The speaker here read the resolution in refer- ence to Mr. Tilden passed by the Cincinnati convention. Mr. Stevenson then concluded: This docu- ment expresses but the true sentiment of every single member of the democratic party in the whole country. I now hand it to you, and per- mit me tosay that I think you ought to feel proud of it. You have our best wishes for your continued health and prosperity. Mr. Tilden’s Remarks. In reply, Mr. Tilden spoke as follows: M-. Stevenson, president of the Democratic Uonal convention, I thank you for the kind terms In which you have expressed the com- munication you make to me. A solution which enables the democratic party of the United States to vindicate effectively the right of the people to choose their chief magistrate—a right violated in 1876—and at the same time relieves me from the burden of the canvass, and four years of administration is most agreeable to Me. My sincere good wishes and cordial co- Operation as a private citizen attend the tu. trious soldier whom the democracy have desiz- nated as their standard-bearer in the presiden- Ual canvass. 1 congratulate you on the fayor- able prospects with which that canvass has been commenced and the promise it affords of complete and final success. ‘The members of the committee were then tn- troduced to Mr. Tilden individually, and soon alter took their leave.

This turning Gut of the light caused the passenger: to hurry down. Mrs. Rollins at ume passed witness’ ‘nd kissed witness’ olde: gn, remarking What a pleasant time they ha had. When they reached the gang plank witness recognized Captain Blake and sa a red Nght on a_ post just above Where he was standing; but he (the captain) had no lantern in his hand, unless he had it under his coat. There was another ght tn front ef the cadin. The end of the plank was about a foot above the deck of the boat, axd was very dangerous, especially to those Ladies having children with them. Witness noticed, when On the gang plank, that it was extremely dark, and no other lights were to be secn, ex- cepting the street car Ughts, on the street. Witness cautioned bis people to be careful, and told them to turn to the let. Then heard the remark, “There’s some and rvnning to the edge of the whart, saW a geuticman, named Platt, bringing up the man from the water, who about his basket. Witness then asked ius. any one Was with him and he as ee “Mrs. Serah Rollins, r and he shouted for ome 01 er, but re- Said there was a and tt icked up and he recognized 1 as Mrs. Rollins’ bat. Witness tl, told Capt. Blake that there was a wom drowning under his eyes and Light. Capt. Biake sung out you are the craztest peopie I b and gave crders for the boat did, leaving the passengers without any light. and Witness then went to Baur’s restauran staiing what had oi pened the man said * and the Were about 3%) people on th ertain that had there bee: man at the planks with a light the occurrence ‘Would not have happened. There were no ropes about the whart to throw toa drowning person. ‘The tide was high at the time. Witness then ribed the recovery of the bod: me of the officers and men of the Mary Washiugton as- sisting. Mrs. R. had been in the water about 35 minutes before the body was recovere Capt. Blake seemed indifferent and only anx- lous to get away. D. M. Davis testified that be was on the boat when it landed, and heard the splash indicating that somebody had got overboard, (supposed there was but one). At the time he got off about one-half were ofl, and it was after he got on the Whart that he heard thesplash, and aman cried tor help at the same time. When they passed over the pase there were persons on either side, wiich made it safe to reach the wharf, but there were no Fp beyond. There was alight over the gang-plank sufficient for persons to get off by. The boat on the oppo- site sice o1 the wharf shaded off what little Sol there was, and therefore the water resembled to some a roadway. There were no guards whatever about the wharf; saw an object in the water and reached his um- brella for It; was satisfied now that this was the ladies sbawl and bonnet. As soon as the man made an outcry a gentleman struck a match. Saw nothing of the officers of the Corco- Tap,but ee those reaching from the wharf Were boat bands for they seemed to be familiar about the wharf. Is qulte certain that there Was nO light on the wharf; noticed one man get down over the wharf, but don’t know who he was. Did not see any of the officers of the boat directing efforts; but the excursionists were | calling for rope and making other efforts. The boat left the whart before the lady’s tody was recovered. Witnessed noticed that when they Went on in the morning the wharf looked quite wide, but they were landed in the narrow part of the whart. When the man got out and made known that the lady was overboard there was a general cry for help; did not hear the captain give apy orders nor see any effort made to lower a boat; Was certain that if the officers had been sensible to their duty they would have lowered a boat, and had a boat been lowered when the man went over thinks that both would have been saved. Did not hear any caution given, such as “keep to leit.” A simple rope up the whart would bave prevented any accident. Is quite certain that these parties golng over- board prevented other parties going over. Mrs, Elizabeth McGuire testitled that in com- ing off uhe boat the only light she saw was a jantern in the hands of a man at the head of the plank, and she might have gone into the water, forshe thought the space in front was la when it was water. Noticed no other iS W. W.

There Was no boat, light or rope about the wharf. A tall man having ordered the people off the whart the boat leit. There was a light thrown on the gang plank for he saw the cleats. The boat landed on the opposite side of the whar! to that she left; did not hear any one direct passengers to the left. Tue water looked to him like an asphalt pavement, and the street car lights belng seen people would natural direcly over the phart. Saw no lighton the Wharf until some one—Mr. Randolph—prought a reflector over. John Carmody testified that he is a deck hand on the Corcoran; that Capt. Blake was standing on the ae witha light, and Mr Fowler, the mail agent, also, as the crowd was coming off. The men on the edge of the boat and wit- Hess Was at the foot of the gang-plank, on the Wharf. Heard the cry “Man overboard!” and Went overboard after him and caught hold of him, and Mr. Ellis (wheelsman on the Corco. Tan) came over after him with a heaving line. Mr. Betts, the watchman, helped to haul te man up, Mr. Ellis and witness having hold of him. Witness immediately went back on the boat. There was no light on the wharf; never heard any other alarm. Heard Captain Blake direct passengers to turn to the lett; had talked over the occurrence, but had no understanding as lo what he was to testify to, did not hear befare the boat left that there was another per- son overboard. Witness picked up the lady's hat in the water, and come one said a lady was overboard, and some said there was not. The boat was not ina hurry to get away to bring up another party. T. M. Sullivan testified that he was in the party and when getting off saw a crowd on tue Snpostte side of the wharf. Capt. Blake was calling cut “Hurry up,” «e, Going over to the crowd saw a ian in the water floating ana some one jumped in and seized him. Another jumped in and went to the other side of the man, when the man was hauled up. Saw a hat floating on the water and reac! after It, bat failed to get it. Called attention to it, as also toa lady's hat, and (Jack) the first one who had jumped in got them.
