A Station Agent Murdered and the Assassins Killed. HELENA, Mont., June 5.—[Special Tele- gram to Tne Bee.|—This morning two un- known men entcred the station at Silver Junction, on the Mountana Central, soventeen miles north of Helena, and shot the station agent, F. C. Jobst, while he was in bed. The ball entered his head and he died in a few hours. Young Burrell, o boy telegraph operator from Michigan, who was spending the night with him, sprang through the win- dow when Jobst was shot, but the assassin fired after him with his rifle, and killed him before he had goue twenty yards. The mur- derers then robbed the station, breaking open the mouey drawer. All they got was $20. They anticipated finding the monthiy shipment of bullion from the Jay Gould mine, but this had passed throuzh the night before. After completing their hellish worlk the murderers, both armed with Winchester rifles, took to the hulls. The alarm was soon given and Sheriff Jefferies, with a posse of forty men, started from Helena in pursuit, while a crowd from Iort Marysville also joined tho chase. The robbers were surrounded in the moun- tains, about five miles from Silver, where the sheriff cailed on them to surrender. They replied by shooting at him, and prepared to sell their lives dearly, having buried themseives up to the shoulders in sand, They were soon over- powered and killed, their bodies being rid- dled witn bullets. They were then brought into Helena, where the) d their victims, Jobst and Burrell, will be burried to-worrow. ‘The robbers are strangers and foreigners. It is thought they are brothers, aud that their name is Quade. They would have been lynched if caught alive, Sl sy Nebraska and lowa Pensions.

The old men are willing to sign, 80 they may receive, as they say, some of its benefits, A big council is now in secret session among the Indians, from which the reporters were excluded, General €rook being the only one of the commission invited, and the only white man outside of those in the Indian country.

The main cause for disagroement among them being the aliotment question, *vhich they do not understand. They believe as soon as they take up their severalities they will lose the rations now being issued to them by tne government, be deciared citizens and that the remamnder of their reservation left after their allotments will be taken from them by the government. This will be a hard question to satisfactorily explain to them. Then there is a faction that wish all cash to be placed in the treasury direct, and use ouly the interest; and = there are other mi- nor matters, such as objecting to the dividing line between this and Pine Ridge, which takes a number of school houses from this agency. In an interview with a member of the com mission to-day. he stated they were hopeful, yot realized that much work and patience had to be done and exercised. At the council in the morning the allotment part of the bill will be again carefully ex- plained; and, it is~ hoped, satisfactory. Tho commission go from here to Pine Ridge, and it is believed there will be much less trouble there, 1f a major- ity of signatures can be procured here. There is no douibt that if the commis- sion had reached here a wmonth ago their work would have been easier. argiesiio SALT LAKE AFFALRS. Judge Zane Takes the Oath of Office —Oarsmen Arrive.

The question of ‘‘fashion” in padi- grees now being discussed by various correspondents is one which springs perennial in the breeder’s breast, says the Breeder’s Gazette. It has been wrestled with by each succeeding gen- eration ever since diseriminating buyers of herd book stock first began evincing preferences for this or that particular strain of blood, and is proba~ bly no nearer receiving its quietus at the present time than it has been atany former period. Those who hold that there is little but the useful and prac- tical worth considering in the case of pedigreed animals naturally develop a deep antipathy to anything savoring of attaching value to cattle of any line of descent without the full number of ounds of flesh or milk insisted upon )y the most exacting of utilitarian standards. On_ the other hand those who find an indefinitely charm cluster- ing about names invested with an ex- traordinary history in either sale or shaw-ring, insist that the bare standard of the butcher or the dairyman is not always to be regarded as the best from which to estimate values of stock main- tained for breeding purposes.

Affairs In Keya Paha Srrivaview, Neb., June B5—[Special to Tur Ber.]—Cattle thieves have infested this rogion, have stolen cattle, have threatened lives, have evaded the law, and the people have been patient, until ‘“forboarance has coased to be a virtue.,” The count, un- fortunately, located on the border of the great Sioux reservation, stretching for 200 miles east and west, and over one hunared miles north, Northwest of here is an ex- panse of unsettled territory, reaching for hundreds of miles. These conditions make it possible for a man to so thoroughly con- ceal stock that it is impossible for any or body of men to trace it, and in maoy in- stances the cattle thieves live right on the borders of the reservation. Thoey have boen asked to quit, and they have laughed. ‘They have been usked to leave the county to avoid trouble, and they have returned two to one. They have been told the consequonce of re- maming and continuing their nofarious prac- tice, and they have just now answered this by stealing two car-loads of the best cattle belonging to two of the leading citizens. 1t is said, “Take the law for them.” The law has been tried, and the courts have ruled that they have no jurisdiction over crimes committed on the reservation. In an interview with Tine Bee correspond- ent, to-day, a leading citizen said: *‘Gov- ernments are instituted among menfor the vrotection of life und prop: Our gov- ernment has failed to protect our property, and when in the event of such a failure our people try to protect themselves, those who do mot understand the circumstance, and I sometimes think they do not caro to investi- gate, cry out with horror at what our people, who do know, think the only means. Let me say that an_investigation” will convince any honest man that our people can find re- lief only 1n organization. “Thieves were among us in such numbers as to alarm even those who were slow to be- lieve them guilty. Just the day before the last steal was made, Maupin, Gannon, Bab- cock and others promiuently mentioned in the gang, were either awong their sympa- thizers in the county or at [3assott_or Ains- worth. At the same tine Doo Middleton, long noted as a thief, with three other sus- picious characters, left the train at a small station on the railroad west of Ainsworth. With all these facts before our peovle some of them would not believe the rumor that there wae a big steal on. The cattle were taken, and to cover their tracks the thieves fired the reservation, and for two days the air was so full of smoke as to almost obscure the sun. These were the circumstances just previous to the night of Newell's killin, “Our people, regardless of committee af- filiations, were aroused to a feeling of des- peration. Two at least of the men were in the county. A hundred determined were in the saddles. You know the result. “It is generally conceded that the commit- tee did not go to Newell's house for uny other purpose than to take a thief who was stopping with him over night. He had said, nota week before, when cautioned about harboring the thieves, that ‘the committee could not take a man from his house while he lived.’ Everything goes to prove that he lived up to this sentiment and fought till the last. He had made his home a rendezvous for the thieves the enure winter. and had perhaps interested himself in their welfare mare than any other man. His triends had cautioned him. The committee had more than once told him, through individuals, that he was doing wrong. His brother, Andrew, Newell, one of our best respected, hardest working, and most intelligent citizens, had plead with him to cut loose from his connoc- tion with the band, and all to no avail. The end had come. “The vigilantes are after the gang of thieves, and, although I do not belong to the committes, I hope they will never lay down their arms until every thief 18 run out of its borders. What clss can our people do? ‘What should they do? Let the honest people of our country say what.” Harassing a Saloon.
