— e F A -"l ,. I e o TFIF OMATA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY, MAY 3 1889, BOOMERS HOMEWARD BOUND. pisgusted Land Hunters Making Tracks For Civilization. PENOUNCING THE GOVERNMENT, Loud and Sulphurous Complaints Agninst the Federal Officials— Guthric Swarmed With Gam- blers and Black-legs, A Cursed Country, Poxca, L T., April 25, —(Special Corre- ndence to Tie Ber. | —Sunday in boomer- nd differs littie from other days, and the Mtaupede of boomers from Oklahoma con- Mnues, Many arc going on through to Kan- ns nnd othor states, but such a number are ocating 1n the Cherokee strip that the mil Jtary will find their removal a difficult task, What they will be removed seems a certainty for General Morritt, who is in command of the troops here, and is in reality military governor of the entire Indian territory, has Rircady issued orders to that effect, and with bhe fourteen companies of soldiers at hand be will bo enabled to enforce his orders, however strong the impulses of the settlers may be to resist. There is one long WAIL OF COMPLAINT that the honest settlers are to be ejected in the interest of the cattle men who have feased this counwry for grazing purposes. hoy say that the United St owes thom rotection and that they have been deprived f homesteads, to which the laws of the gountry cntitle them, und that by the con- pivance of government officials and land pharks in laying off claims before the time for opening the territory, and taking up all of the best portions of it, these men who uld hi protected them in their rights Kobbed them of their homes. A number of boomers in camp near here fo-day held a meeting, not for aivine wor- ship, but for the purpose of DENOUNCING THE GOVERNMENT or permitting its officials to practice such igh handed outrages upon their rights, hat these are justly indignant cannot e doubted, but the indignation of some of io more reckless members of tho disap- ointed band is takin ually bring trouble, ' the government does not enforce th hat would give them protection, the not submit to the law that denies th Fight to locate on the Chicrokee strip. These tterances, however, are not sanctioned by he majority, but are only made by men who pre smarting under wrongs and disappoint- nents and whose tempers have been sorely ried by the hardships and deprivations they ave met with in their honest efforts to find omes for themselves and families. Another difficulty that confronts these de- rmined boomers is the opposition made by he Ponca Indians to their settling on the servation. The Poncas are few in num- s now, diseaso having almost wiped them ut, but they say SWIHITE MAN MUST GO, E’nd indicate a determination to enforce their ishes. But as there is a troop of cavalry t the Ponca agency no hended. An Indian uprising, however, wa only cause th trouble is apore- 1a government, to summarily expel the sottlers from the Indian lands, Persons just in from Guthrie say that that lace is still infested by gamblers, ard that he United States marshal and his force ake no effort to protect the peoplo from g:',mu robbed by all sorts of skin games, Seven tough gamblers from Coney Island and other castern points are plying their wyocation in Guthrie, and are said to be reap- ing a rich harvest. There are over A HUNDRED GAMBLERS olng @ thriving business thero now— flmm., faro banks, stud poker, and every other game known to the ambling fraternity are flourishing there public view. They each pay a license of a dayto the city, but otherwise they are nder no restrawt. Efforts are being made have the new city government ciean out e blacklegs that infest Guthrie, and as hbey are getting sonumerous, something will ave to be done. Al trains north are loaded with people caviog Oklaboma, und even the freights are rovided with coaches for carrying passen- ers. No regularity is practiced in running !mun«, and the wonder is that there are not ore accidents. At every station between klahowa City und Arkansas City four or ve freight triuus ure met going south with upplies. for the settlers, and Bs the Santa Fe road has not acilities for such @ rush and akes no efforts to get them, the people Buffer great inconveniences. It takes from n to ihirty hours to go from Oklahoma ity to Ponca, a distance of about a hundred iles, and iu order to get a train anywhere n the road, people have to go to the depot nd sometimes WAIT FOUR OR FIVE HOURS, The agents do not koow where the trains and such athing as system seems to been entirely abandoned, Cattle cars are side-trac! at several sta- jons with the rotting carcasses of cattle hat were trampled to death. ‘The railroad g:u are 1o busy to remove the dead animals d they are left in tho cars, Passenger ains are often compelled to stand on a track ext to these cars, and the stench from the ad cattle is another of the trials that add the disgust of the Oklahoma boomer. 'he only scavengers to rewove these dead nimals are the Ponca ludian Several quaws were out fem.snluy hurrying to a Pllleu\r that had just been sidetracked, d soon they had out their knives and were S-‘ «ing away at a dead steer that ly in tho ear, This steer had not been dead luns nough to @t cold, conseguently they hug arm meat, for they ate it raw. Seeing the uaws feasting on raw meat and inbaling e stench of the dead cattle at the same mo did not have a very appetizing effect on e tenderfeet who fiiled the train, but on &a old time boomers who had feasted on Pbacon and bread sprinkled with Oxlabhoma kali dust for the past week, it had no ef- Ject, he had become proof against such things and had ceased to be fastidious 1n his tastes As the train from Oklaloma sped along _ou the way back to civilization many passen- ‘gers aboard had several opportunities TO DISCHARGE THE RUSTY LOADS #n their pistols and Winchesters. A prairie 'aog village was passed, and @ 8core or more [of the animals were curious to get a glimpse 2t the many foolish people who had expected find the land of Oklahoma flowing with ilk and honey and covered with gold, As ey peeped out of their holes several hun. red shots were fired and it seemed that feverybody aboard the train realized that as o hid not been compelled to shoot any one 1 it was useless to carry his weapons aded any further, but had they done no otter shooting at claim-jumpers than at the rairio dogs the man who took his load of Mnos to Oklaboma would still be hunting or customers. Ono of the causes of much future trouble Guthrie—and, in fact, every town located in Oklahoma—will be the uncertainty of gitle to property, Every picce of property ©f uuy consequence will be in litigation, and mmuch of it will be swallowed up in lawyers' ¥ees before the several claims upon it are ad- usts :d. The time will bave to come, how- when the rights of proverty will he set- i in Oklahomaas elsewhere, by the courts, sud when o man can hold his property with- ng to sit upon it continually nursing or six-shooter in order to main- tain jossession e Sleopless nights made miserable by that terrible cough.

Soon after dark 12,000 men surrounded the Jail where the priests have been locked up and attackea its heavy doors with pick-axes, stones, crowbars and heavy beams of wood, and some of them in their wild fury DASHED THEIR BLEEDING HANDS AND HEADS against the massive walls, Many of them were armed, and in a short time a heavy fire was pouring into the windows. The mayor of Guanajuata, who was inside, was one of the first to fall. Policemen who rushed up in squacs of two and three wero remorsclessly butchered, and m a short time more than twenty of them were lying dead on the pave: ment. The scattored soldiers who wors in town were treated in a like manner. The mob, which by this time was utterly unmanageable, either by the government or by the priests who had incited it, now SET PIRE TO.THE JALL DOOKS. Just as the inmates were about to surren- der 200 regular soldiers arrived at a double quick and formed across tho street. The mob answered the order to disperse with a yell and a discharge of firearms. The com- mand to fire was at once given. Bullets at fearfully short rango swept through the mass of men, women and children like a scythe, MOWING THEM DOWN IN ROWS, Still they came on, and volley after volley crashed into them, only to eause those be- hind to spurn the dead bodies with their feet as they pressed forward. The streets were sticky with blood and the shallow gut- ters ran red. In the meantime a number of insurgents armed with pistols and rifles haa climbed upon adjoining houses, and the soldiers be- gan to drop one by one. After a half hour's continuous fighting, a charge with bayoneis was ordered. When the front rank of the mob FELT THE STEEL the entire crowd broke and disappeared through alleys and byways. Altogether more 250 persons have been slain, the greater of whom were miners and Mexi- can laborers. The soldiers lost sixteen killed and wounded. Among the slamn - wi a lieutenant. The fire in the was quenched and the five dly frightened but determined vriests were n to Guanajuata for safe keeping now confined in the detas. 1t is thought that had the viot proven suc- cessful, and had the priests been rescued and local authority broken, a serious uprising might have developed. ‘As it is, the incipient revolution is nipped in the bud. Castello del It Was a Gross Exageration, Ciry or Mexico, May 2.—The dispatch sent from Texas purporting to give details of the rioting at Silao and Guanajuata are gross exagerations.

Never since the palace of the Tuilleries was invaded in 1379 by the sans culottes,of the Seine depart- ment, have such startling contrasts been wit- nessed in similar circumstances. When it is said that the waiters, policemen and messen- ger boys drank most of the freo champagne, the situation at midnight may be suggested. Justices of the supreme court, governors, staff oficers, club men, lawyers, poets, millionaires, with beautiful and refined ‘women, crowded blankly along the supper counter and demanded in vain the attention they were accustomed to receive. Waiters and other functionaries around the place showed un- disguised contempt for the ‘‘free lunch fiends.” Waiters who did not have to ac- count for unlimited wine took occasion to neglect guests and treat themselves, The excellent supper was largely wasted. Drunken waiters invaded the ball room and flourished bubbling bottles of champagne. In tne corridors free fights were of constant occurrence, mblers, boodlers and women dozed or made merry on the staircases, Never once did an accredited officer interfere with anybody’s privilege. Policemen who were sober were holpless. They couldn't tell dress-coated waiters from guosts, By 1 o'clock most of the respectable element werc making frantic and supperless efforts 10 get away. Kven this privilege was denied them, A Jine oxtending from tho coat rooms for 500 yards, made up of somo of the lead- ing citizens of this town, surged against the feeble and inadequat of the cout room. Gentlemen grew angry and desporate at the utter madequacy of the arrangements. With torn coats and wrinkled shirt fronts men whose names are known all over the union fought their way towards their coats, frequently under the clubs of thle police, the jeers of the mob outside and the pernicions activity of pickpockets. It was 5 o'clock in the morning before tho last battered and ragged guest joined his family at the doors und reached bis hack. “In its exccutive aspects the centennial ball wis the worst of its sort ever koown in the history of this city,” sald a well-known man about town to-day. “Of the ladies I met, one's dress was ruined by a plate of salad thrown over it by a drunken brute, and the shoulder of auother was cut from a bottle which @ stranger had broken upon it. I saw more respectable women insulted in the supper rooui than 1 ever saw, even accosted at the Freuch ball, 1 knocked down & man who tried to kiss the daughter of a leading lawyer here. ‘I'he ticket takers had no checks placed upon them. There is 10 question that they wade lots of mouey let ting in people who never should have been there.”” Policemen lost their temper cow- pletely and ecleared people out at the end of their clubs. Hundreds of bottles of wine were passed out of doors and sold by the waiters and others, One wman was drunk, fell down stairs and was so badly hurt he had to be carried off in an ambula Many flags and potted piants were stolen and some of the boxcs were shockingly soiled after th first occupants bad left. The supper was cleared by clubs shortly after 1 o'clock. The lights were turned out in the baliroom long before the crowd had left the building. — Advice t Mothers.

Scrub Armies With a Wholesale Fear of Blood. Care Hayvmex, Hayti, May 2.—[Special Telegram 1o Tue Bee. | —Haytien affairs have changed little if at all since last December. The armies of Legitime and Hippolyte con front each other at five or six poiuts, are about equally dividea and content to engage in occasional skiruishing' The north hus two ships—the Jacmel and the Curondelet, both of these stationed at Cape Haytien, but they are not cousidered strong euough to attack toe navy of Legitime. Last week the Jacme! made a dash iuto the enemy’'s waters, captured a schooner loaded with arms aud ammunition and took some ’nrlmnen. Owing to the sudder appearance of Legitime's qun boats, however, the prize was sunk by tae "\lfifir! The southern navy is engaged in blockading St. Mare, having headquarters at Grand Saline, about two and a halt miles from the entrunce to St. Marc harbor. These ships have bombarded Cape Haytien, Toua- nies, and St. Mare, tho last two blaces a number of times, with the result of killing one woman and wounding six or seven peo- ple. No damage was done to property. — Pozzoni’s Complexion Powder pro- duces a soft and beautiful skin; it com- bines every element of beauty and purivy. PP A DECIDEDLY DOUBTFUL STATE. The Distribution of Spoils Splitting the Republicans of Montana Hrrexa, Mont., May 2.—[Special to Tne Bee.|—The approach of statehood is con- stantly develoving new and surprising changes on the political horizon. There has been a complete revolution in the condition of the two leading parties, The rocks which wrecked the democracy last fall are rending the republicaus into factions, The latter are now in m red-hot state of dissension, while the democrats, relieved of the baneful influ. ence of spoils, are united and harmonious, I[Pactions have disappeared and the old lead- ersare determned to place the new state in the democratic column The republicans are badly torn up and are playing the dog and cat act with vigor and venon The shoe is on the other foot. Outside interference with the official appointments in Montana has had a good deal to do with the trouble and aissatisfac- tion, The same hawking will be done by the re- publicans this time, and their marvelous 5,000 majority will be wiped out, as the re- cent unexpected victories of the democra ot Anaconda and Butte demonstrate. Carter had about 1,000 majority at Anaconda and 700 or 800 at Butte. There has been a com- plete reversal. Anaconda elected the demo- cratic ticket by nearly the same majority as it gave Carter, and the democrats carried Butte by majorities ranging from 200 to 400, It was a surprise to democrats as well as re- publieans. So my theory that Montana is a doubtful state—due to the changed conaitions, which I predicted might happen, is still ed at par, and I make another that there will not be 1,000 majority for governor, either way, the ' chances being in favor of the democrats. The capture of Montana is the aim and object of the dem- ocrats in the territory and in the east, and valuable assistance will be rendered from that quarter, in_the way of stump speaker and in other The democratic affections will pull in the traces loy less all signs fail. The old time enthusiasm will be aroused, the Missourians will rally round the flag in & solid phalanx, the issues of lead, and silver and wool will not have the effect they had in the presidentia! eleccion, because the voters will not take the same interest in tariff discussions, nor be in- fluenced by the oily argument of oratorical harangue, in a state election as they were in a national election. They absorbed too much of it in November, and have not yet recov- ered from the nausea produced by a too fre. quent indulgence in awallowing large doses prescribed by the republican and de political doctors. Live issues, affecti intorests of the new state, will att attention a good deal more than a weary re- hash of stale chesnuts, But the advantage between the parties is so slight, that it1s the toss of a copper as to which will win, Affairs at Oreston CresToN, Ia, May 2.—[Special to Tum Bee.]—It has been learned from a very re- liable source that the Potter monument com- mission have finally decided that the mem- ory of the late Thomas J. Potter can best be perpetuated by the erection of a magniticent building, to be known as *The Potter Hos- pital.” The original plan for the erection of a monster statue of bronze having been dis- approved by many promiuent railroad ofi- cials has been abandoned. Ata recent meeting of the commission resolutions as above written ‘ere unani- mously adopted. Some of Mr. Potter’s most intimate friends, as well as some of the largest contributors to the fund, were in favor of the step, and several have already doubled the amount of their subscriptions. Subscriptions amounting to almost $7,000, nearly double the amount subscribed for' the monument, have been added within the past few days. It is estinated that $25,000 can be casily secured. It will be an institution where sick and disabled railroad employes can receive treatment free, which was the “pet’ idea of Mr., Potter. Among the most anxious thata hospital instead of a statue be erected is Mrs, T. J. Potter,whose request has been respected by the commissioners. ‘The county seat war is still being waged. Judge Rowell of Afton bas come out in a cir- cular in which he boldly denies that the city council of Creston has any right to dcnate the city hall to Union county. Ex-County Commissioner D. H. Brooks and Lawyers Bull, Maxwell and Higbee have maae reply thereto and quote section 1, chapter 89, laws of the twenty-eighth general assemoly,which mives any city of the first or second class, or- ganized under the general laws of this state, power to acquire real estate or any interest therein as a purchaser at an executiou sale, and also to dispose of any real estate or terest therein on such® terms as the council shall deom just and proper. The at- torneys hold that the council have the power and can alone determine the terms and con- ditions upon which the property may be dis- posed of. In disposing of the hall to the couuty the city reserves only so much of it as is required for public needs, The petition and remonstrance are still in culation Meetings have been and still are being called in various townships throughout the couaty, and some of the ablest speakers from here and Afton are in the field. Creston, how- ever, still has the lead.

Commissioner O'Keeffe went out in tho country yesterday morning to look after the bridges, and for want of something better to do, and not having O’Keeffe to row with, Anderson took a turs at the reporters, ““The dinged papers never have anything right. They're always wrong,” he growled. ““You fellows never como up here but what you get things all turned *round and convey a different idea from what you should con- vey. 1tell you you never got anything right. The report of yesterday’s mceting wasn't rhml There was silence save for the gentle foot- failn of the blg comimisatonar. ““Talk about makin' changes in the hos- pital,”” he began again, “we ain’t makin' any changes. Who's makin' any changes?" “I heard Mr. Coots say that some changes would have to be_made in the building as it now stands to make it safe,” vontured one of the reporters, “Them ain't changes, them ain't.

Changes ain't the right word. You don't know the right word. You don’t no nothin’,’" and the honorablo commis- sioner stalked otit of the room, climbed into a buckboard along with John F. Coots and drove away towards the hospital, closely fol- lowed by Mount and Turner. Coots did not filo his bond yesterday, nor has he named his assistants yot.
