Sam Chur- chill was commissioned by Gov. Churchill to investigate in conipany with Lieut. Satterly, -agent of the war department, the condition of af- fairs and distribution of svpplies in the overtlowed districts of this state. He returned last night, and has made a lengthy and minute report of his observations. He found the larger portion of Desha and t wo-thirds of Chicota county under water, and thousands of their iubabitants in ap- palling destitution, Some scenes wit- nessed were heartrending. In places absolutely everything wasswept away by the floods, leaving a once prosper- ous city without a mouthful to eat or any living thing near them. The overnment supplies saved hundreds ‘rom death by starvation, and thou- sands from terrible suffering. The stories circulated that undeserving parties received much of the sup- plies he found untrue except in one instance. The area of country sup- plied by the commissson at Arkansas City, Desha county, is ten miles long and seven miles wide, and contains over a thousand destitutes. One thousand more rations are wanted there immediately. The rations is- sued were three pounds of salt meat and a peck of meal per week. At Terine, Lieut. Churchill found the supplies injudiciously distributed to surrounding points, some receiving rations for a month and others not se- curing anything. Around the mouth of the Arkansas and White rivers 250 people are yet unsupplied and suffer- ing. At Redford, Desha county, which is the distributing center of an overflowed section of 71 by 13 miles, 1,200 people look for food. The en- tire number of destitutes in Desha that a passenger train had gone through the bridge at Sweet Briar, The opponents of the Chinese bill asked Lfl- Page to agree to the time o re- offering amendments. H lied he would fix a time after coo- LR 3 sulting with friends of the bill, but A did not propose to have a flood of amendments and consume two or three days voting on them., He would admit a reasonable number. The house then resumed considera- tion of the bill. Mr. Washburn (Mion.) took the floor on the ground the coming of Chinese was an injustice to laboring men. " < Mr, McClure, " who was minister Jhina under President Pierce, pported the bill, holding that no feeling of reciprocity existed between the two nations, and that the history of their relations show there never will be. He gave many instances of the ill treatment of Americans by the « Chinese, and related instances to show the intellectual inferiority of the people, many of which incidents came under his own observation while trav- eling in China. Mr. Kasson spoke ,in favor of his amendment to the bill making the term ten years instead of twenty, do- ing away with the passport system and omitting the clause which makes the bill apply to skilled labor. He op- posed the bill because it takes advan- tage of the confidence which the Chi- nese reposed in the United States by the late treaty and he wished not to live to see tge day when American faith would be classed with the term “Punmic iaith.” California demands ;l?llrethmg more reasonable than this ill, The house then took a recess until 10 o'clock to-morrow to continue de- bate on the bill, SHIPHERD.

The last victim is Henry Bugler, a younger brother of John Bugler, already un. der indictment for the same offense, The arrest was made on the Blue Springs & Independence road, about two miles from the residence of the prisoner’s mother in ‘“ Cracker'’s eck” about 2 o’clock p.m, by De- tective Gorham and Deputy Mysrlhtl Holland. The warrant was *sworn out before Squire Horace Shelle: in the morning by Mr. @orham, an the officials lost no time in going to the Glendale neighborhood, where they expected to find their man. They went first to the residence of Mr. Bugler, but not finding him there m.:le a search in the vicinity, coming vpon him upon the public road near the Litt.e Blue bridge. He was taken at once to Independence and ar- raigned before Justice Shelly for ex- amination. He entered a plea of not guilty and waived preliminary hear- ing. The justice fixed his bail at $3,000, conditioned for appearance before the special grand jury next Monday, but being unable to give said bail, the prisoner was committed to jail. Bugler has been absent in Washington territory since April, 1880 until about one week ago, and he says that he can prove conclusively that upon the date of the train robbery he was at work in Walla Walla. If he can prove this of course ve & habeas st | b ch, his innocence will be completely established, but Detective Graham, who worked up the case against him, says this story is ‘‘thin” and ‘“‘won’t wash,” as he has fully as much if not more proof of his complicity in the rohbeg as against any of the others, The officials do not deny that Bugler has been in Washington territory dur- ing the greater portion of the last two years, but say that they have strong proof of his having made san ex- cursion to this for the express ry. Bugler tekes his arrest with the utmost nonchalance and is by far the most unconcerned of any of the parties who have been yet arrested. Marine Intelligence. Aational Associated Vress.

Rawlins, Wy. T., has been infested for some time with highwaymen, thieves and blacklegs, who have ter- rorized the authorities and made life decidedly unpleasant for the more respectable citizone, The (epreda- tions of these thieves have become so bold of late that the patience of the residonts tina ly give way, and a mur- | derand voonery 1 one of the prinei- pal gticets the cthee night was the wtraw which broke the camel’s A dutermived viglance committee armed themselves and after an excit- ing chase, on Sunday night they cap- tured two of the most notorious of the outlaws, An open air court was in- stituted, the two prisoners were con- victed and were summarily swung up. The scene of the double execution was in the stock yards a short distance out of the city, where the #w) criminals were hung from a tall post. After accomplishing this rude act of justice the committee retuined to the city and in a public place posted on a blackboard the names of six other well known du&ndou, with a noti- fication that they would be given twelve hours in which to leave the city forever. Itis needless to sa that the individuals thus posted too immediate steps to skip. Among them was a near relaf of a promi- nent gentleman of this city, 7 It i1s expected that Rawlins will have peace within her borders here- after, or the vigilantes will know why.
