The following letter from Col. W. W.

Mr. E. M. Hewlett appeared for the accused aud claimed that it would be shown that, with the exception of the dates, what she had testi- fied to was true. Mr. W. E. Williams, assistant clerk, testified to the papers in the Beale case.

Officer Henry testified that the accused was arrested October 10, 1884, and sentenced to sixty days in jail, and again arrested Septem- ber 29, 1885, for petit larceny, and she pleaded guilty and was sentenced to’ the penitentiary. Witness was at Mr. Carrington’s office and identitied her as Florence Jewell who had been in the penitentiary, and she denied that that was her name, Jloward Paddock, clerk of the Albany peni- tentiary, identified the prisoner. Mr, Beale, the respondent in the divorce suit, testified thet it had been abandoned and he was living with his wife. He denied that he ever saw the prisoner till in the Police Court. Mr. Lewis corrected his testimony, stating le was not identified by the pris- er at the examination, defendant testified that the right name uh Thompson, and repeated her test as to her connection with Mr. Beale, he said, told her his wife was dead. mpbeil Carrington testified that he was sel for the complainant in the divorce that after the case was settled the priso- ner came to him and said that she had made a s to the date, § Hawkins, colored, testified that she had been employed at Mr. Beale’s; that she re- membered Mr. Beale came down stairs and sent her for whisky, and wh she returned ner was in his room.

DISPOSSESSING “STREET JUMPERS.” Acommittee started along the streets and as each “jumper” was found they politely but firmly told him to get out of the street. When a “street-jumper” gets in their way at all, they give the alarm by yelling, “Yahoo, Yahoo” sev- eral times and their comrades come in swarms, told to get off and stay thrown off as the exigencies of the case may require.

Oxtauoma City, April 25.—Three brothers named Williams had a desperate fight on the streets yesterday with a party of Kansas town- site speculators, Knives and pistols were freely used. All hands are under arrest. A young woman named Hotchkiss was arrested for murderou: tacking the street commit- railroad is prostrated and communications are entirely cut off. The Western Union, with its crush of train dispatching, would not touch @ message of any other character in the terri- tory, though the éarth swallowed a town site. Guthrie’s back seems broken and there isa furious stampede to get out. People there are wild from the deprivations that lack of shelter, water, and food impose upon them. To these distresses are added the misfortunes of tempest, heat, and the absence of means of flight. A CATTLE TRAIN CROWDED WITH REFUGEES. When your correspondent reached Willow springs from the Diamond-bar ranch he learned from the dispatches that neither the north nor south bound passenger trains, shortly due, had been heard from. An hour of waiting passed when a train of twenty cattle cars crept up from the south. The cars were locked, but upon the roofs, the buffers, amid the coal on the tender, on the pilot and gangway of the locomotive, and packed in and upon the caboose, was a dense and miserable throng of men, The train from Guthrie had started with its strange load at 6 o’clock in the even- ing, It was useless to attempt to enforce the laws restrictive of railroad travel. The people were FLEEING PRACTICALLY FOR THEIR LIVES. They had added to long periods of privation the suffering of seventeen hours without food or protection from the cold. No trains had passed them and none was in sight behind. They had left a howling mob in Guthrie baf- fled in its efforts to join in the flight. The use- lessness of proceeding to Guthrie was apparent and the correspondent secured a footing for one foot and returned to this point with the laggard train. Since dark other freight trains have followed, having made the 85 miles from Guthrie in from six to fourteen hours. The cars are piled with fugitives, thirsty and famine-stricken, and Ar- kansas City is crowded as it was before the de- scent. Some experiences are pitiful. A STORM INCREASES GUTHRIE’S MISERIES. A terrible storm last night raised the miseri of Guthrie to almost a horror. A violent wind arose as the sun sunk and filled the air with the stifling red alkali dust that strews the plain. A deluge of rain succeeded and through the night it beat upon the thousands of shelierless, The railroad is utterly incompetent in the emergency and is delivering baggage and ex- press too slowly to be of use to the unprotected. CURSING THE MARSHALS AND THE RAILROAD. The fugitives cheer with joy as they alight here and rush to the hydrants and eating- houses. Curses are heaped upon the region and the government marshals, Needles and Jones, are execrated without stint for the theft of the land, and the railroad is denounced for its feeble service. Guthrie is without form. The original streets have disappeared, and new sections are being plowed every hour, values have fallen to practically nothing and confidence is ata low ebb. WILL GUTHRIE BE DESERTED? Those who are not going home announce their intentions of moving upon the Cherokee strip and report that hundreds of boomers in | wagons have already done so. Scores of men surrendered their claims to lots Guthrie without an effort to preserve or dispose of them, aes ‘The south-bound passenger train arrived af- ter a time crowded with pilgrims for Guthri and few could be dissuaded by the lament: tions of the fugitives, It is impossible to pre- dict what the next few days will develop in Guthrie. ONLY THE POOR LAND OPENED POR SETTLEMENT. Sr. Lovts, April 25.—An Arkansas City spe- cial to the Republic says: A number of claims have been deserted in various parts of the ter- ritory and wagons can be seen frequently on | tne back trail, Many of the disgruntled | threaten to ‘squat’ on the Indian lands sur- rounding Oklahoma. Some will fall back on the Cherokee strip, others will go down into the Chickasaw country and lease the Indian commission. That count: rapidly settled by farmers who head right or lease for the privilege of ti the soil there. The country is as m superior to Oklahoma as is the Cherokee out- | let, and there is a great deal of compl among boomers that the poorest land in Indian Territory should have been the only land opened to settlement. Despite this discouragement, however, many contests for possession of lands are threatened, An interesting case has arisen where two n arrived on the same quarter section not five minutes apart. The first arrival claimed possession by priority. The second made im- provements and claimed that it was the im- provement which perfected the right of occu- pation. The ease will doubtless be taken to the land office for settlement. As illustrating the ingratitude of a republic, it may be mentioned that contests are already | filed against the cleim of Capt. Couch, the old boomer leader, on the curious ground that he | disqualified himself from making an entry by | entering the territory yeurs ago on boom expe- ditions. GEN, WEAVER’S CLAIM CONTESTED. Gen, James B, Weaver, of Iowa, one of the most persistent advocates ot the opening of | Oklahoma in Congress, has also had his claim | ‘contested and has been accused of attempting to take the people by the throat. The old-time | boomer leaders have not fared well. Auy | number of Payne’s men can be found now lying around Purcell, who have been ont-rid- den and out-run by men who have taken the fruit of their years of sacrifice. THE MURDER OF A BOY. Most of them take it philosophically, but it means blood, and the murdered boy of nineteen who was shot when found in possession of one of these claims, owes his death to that in- justice, whether he was ly a for ie not, The man who tilled him worked li | his constituents at Newcastle Her lot lay in the route of a proposed The woman made a violent resistance and smashed the tripod of the surveyor. The Rush for the Cherokee Strip. Cuicaco, April 26.—A special to the News from Diamond Barranch, I. T., via Arkansas City, says: The occupation of the Cherokee strip has begun along the whole line, and a much harder nut to crack than was the Okla- homa boom will be presented to the govern- ment. The excitement in Arkansas the prospective seizure of the strip is is The crowds of fugitives from the famine, thirst, frost and heat of Guthrie are swelling as each train on the almost wholly paralyzed railroad comes in. BITTER RESENTMENT AGAINST GOVERNMENT OF- The fiercest resentment is breathed against the government for the outrageously unfair manner in which the country was thrown open. The whole federal machinery, from the Presi- dent down to the last deputy marshal, is pas- sionately denounced. Six residents of Arkan- sas City went out on the strip Tuesday and staked some claims, Some INVADED THE CHILLOCCO INDIAN SCHOOL RESER- . VATION and were ordered off by the superintendent, ‘They moved their siakes to a neighboring spot off the school land. It may be believed that hundreds of the returning pilgrims are bear- ing northward with plans laid for location on the strip and that many are now camping this side of Salt Fork upon what they claim for their hom. The soldiers patrolling this region, under Capt. Jack Hayes, have not yet returned from the southern border, but are expected in Camp | Price, near Arkansas City, any hour. It will be their duty, no doubt, to clear the strip, and TURMOLL 18 BOUND TO ENSUE. The people, however, who are back of this Present excitement are disposed to be law- abiding. but they will claim redress for the wrongs they suffered in Oklahoma and é mand claims in the strip, It is not feare they will offer armed resistunc It seems. however, that something must be done | to reli ve the pressure of homeless throngs. The Cherckees Alarmed. Ankansas City, April 25.—The Cherokee council has held mecting and selected a com- missioner, in the person of John Pappin, to go | to Washington and lay the Cherokees’ claim be- fore the President, | ers will invade their territory (Cherokee strip). Pp. etions wou issued to the troops to go slow in the matter of driving the boomers off the strip, This compel the Cherokees to accept the ¢ acre now offered 5 per m for the 6,000,000 acres of | land in the strip. Gen. Merritt has given the boomers three davs to get off the Cherokee strip and will undoubtedly drive them off, — ERICAN COQUELIN’S: TOUR. He Says*it Was a Success, and Praises American Audiences.

Investigated. Bavtmworr, April —Dealers in dressed beef, who feel that they have been discrimi- nated against by the Baltimore and Ohio rail- road in freight charges from Chicago, will ask | the inter state commerce commission to investi- | gate the matter. It has been charged that | Vice-President Smith,before leaving Baltimore | for his vacation, made a contract with the Armours, Swift and Hammond, of Chicago, to carry dressed beef for them at 45 cents per hundred to New York, 43 to Philadelphia and 40 to Baltimore, for a period of 5 years. An officer of the Baltimore and Ohio, who was | asked about the matter, said it was a fact that such a contract had been made by Vice-Presi- | dent Smith and that the rates mentioned, | which are about five percent lower than previ- ous to April 1, are now in effect. — THE KAISER WANTS MONEY. Hence he has Ordered a Suspension of Persecution of Hebrews. Lonpox, April 25.—Advices from Berlin toa Jewish financier here states that it is very doubtful that Chaplain Stoecker’s noticeable silence of late is due to his illness, as reported, It is intimated that his absence from the pulpit is owing to a private admonition that the persecution of Hebrews in Germany is to cease for a while at least. The reverend Jew-baiter took the hint in very bad humor, but there is probably nothing more serious the matter with himthana fit of the sulks at his enforced suspension from his favor- ite pastime. The kaiser must have money for his proposed schemes—a good deal of it; he must go to Semitic money-lenders for a great portion of it, and this is held to explain. the orders given to the Rev. Dr. Stoecker. What | with colonial projects and naval increase, the | emperor cannot afford to quarrel with so use- | ful and so clannish a class of subjects. | THE VISIT OF KING HUMBERT | to Berlin will naturally be made the occasion of a most impressive military display, in order that the Italian visitors may be made to understand | the superiority of the German army to any continental force. There is much dissatisfac- tion in the peninsula at fhe triple alliance, es- pecially, im the southern part. The police lately succeeded in preventing an attem) outbreak at Naples. The journals are forbi to mention it, but in spite of all denials it | threatened at one time to be a serious affair, | nor is there any proof that it was instigated by vege as is generally alleged in such cases. Phe suffering among the agricultural classes is reat, and there does not seem to be any pros- ect of improvement of trade, Though Signor Crispi is promised that no | papal nuncio will be received at Berlin asa re= ward for the adherence of Italy, it is not thought there will be much grief at the vatican for what is more of a discourtesy than a sub- stantial deprivation. LETTING UP ON THE SOCIALISTS. It is oficially stated that the importance of the socialistic demonstrations in different parts of Germany has been greatly exaggerated. The government press say that it has been thought best to allow people more lati- tude in speech and print than bas been given to them of late, trusting to the good sense of respectable citizens to take their frothy words at their full value only, believing that the agi- tators will subside into their normal nothing- ness when the complaint of persecution is over. nar _sccng Pool-Champion Fry Dead.
