They nave no squaws or papooses with them. "It is reported that a bunch of Utes crossed the railroad near Leroy Station, a few days ago for the Northwest, estimated at from fifty to seventy-five. It is also estimated that another bunch are in camp at some other fork about ten miles from Fort Brldger.

Have no information as to number. They are killing deer. Sheriff Ward left for Smith's Fork last night, and his deputy left this morning to either Join the or to take the trial of the lot that passed Leroy from the south." HEARING COMPLAINTS. Under the direction of Mr. Modini-Wood.

Hardly had the Congress delegation with an escort of nearly one hundred citizens of Pen-', after a ride of twenty-five miles across Thurston county, entered the confines of Capt. Beck's reservation, when Dep'uty Marshal Boeh me swooped down on William E. Peebles and John Meyers, placing them under arrest as conspirators against the government.

Capt. Beck said that he proposed to execute the laws as he found them. He wanted it distinctly understood he is responsible for the agency and wards of the government. The war-' rant also 1 included John S. president of the Flourney Company, and George S.

Harris, who were not present at the conference with the Indians. The warrant charges the men with a conspiracy to oppose the gov-' eminent of the United States by force, and that to effect the object of the conspiracy they armed 200 farmers and sent them on the reservation to resist the properly-constituted United States authorities. Peebles said that this action was entirely in keeping with the policy of Capt. Beck ever since he came to the agency, and that he would appear before Justice Londrush of the' Winnebago precinct waive examination' to the United States District -Court." Senator Allen opened the council by stating through an interpreter that when he was here a month ago he said he would' visit them again and talk with them fully with reference to their land," the question of allotment being uppermost. He then introduced to! the Indians with solemn Senator Thurston, Congressmen Mel-, klejohn, Strode and Andrews.

Possibly while disposing of his victim's body he wrote to Mrs. Smith. Holmes- had never seen either Mrs. or Mr. Smith, yet he writes to the former for the first time in his Ufa.

and opens his letter In an innocent strain of inquiry. Jt was Just like an ordinary business letter. Holmes sjplcs a simple question: "Will you kindly communicate with Mrs. Connor 'and say to her for me that it is absolutely necessary for us to hear from her with regard to the suit in which she is In terested as a witness?" This was the first intimation to Mrs. Smith that her daughter had disappeared and the first line she ever received from Holmes.

The archmur-derer used the letter paper of the fictitious Campbell-Yates Company at Nos. 701-703 Sixty-third Btreet, Chicago, and dates his letter October 31, 1892. ANOTHER ALLEGED VICTIM. CHICAGO, July .25. More proof was found today that Julia L.

Connor Is dead and that she was made way with by Holmes. It was determined that she disappeared before" June 9, 1892, an imrtant factor in the search for her. As late as November, 1892, Holmes, as shown by letters which have been found, was writings her pareits as to her whereabouts and stating that she had gone to Louis, but on June 5, 1892, he wrote to her brother-in-law Yantis, in Waukesha, giving him a. 'fictitious address as to 'her whereabouts in Yantis wrote back to Holmes on July 9, and this letter was found. At that time Yantis had no suspicion that Holmes had made way with his sister-in-law, and supposed him to be her friend.

His letter was written three weeks before the. one in. which I. L. Connor accused Holmes with breaking faith with him.

The latter letter refers to his daughter Pearl. From this It would appear that Mrs. Connor was killed first and the child afterward. Late today two well-dressed women called on Chief Badenoch and told him that a sixteen-year-old girl, the daughter of wealthy and respectable parents, became acquainted with Holmes during the fall of 1893 and, afterward disappeared. Where she went or what became of her has never been ascertained and her parents still cling to the hope that she is still alive.

Until the present revelations about Holmes's life were published In the Chicago newspapers they did not connect their daughter's disappearance with the En-glewood druggist, but now that the searchlight of investigation has been turned upon the. man and his horrible crimes exposed they are certain that their daughter was one of his victims. The two women furnished Chief Badenoch the girl's name and the address of the parents, and the chief will investigate their story. Until he has fully corroborated it, however, he says he will not disclose the girl's name. WILL BE TRIED.

Holmes will be tried In this city for the murder of Benjamin plt-sel In the Callow Hill-street In tJew of the fact that the District Attorney has said Holmes would be tried wherever the strongest case could 'be made out against him, it Is believed that the authorities have- recently learned Important details of the crime which Insures his conviction. Information as to whether or not this supposition was correct was refused.

DR. HEARNE'S CASE. It Will Be Transferred to San Diego 7 For Trial, r. V-: (REGULAR ASSOCIATED PRESS REPORT.) HANNIBAL July 25. The taking of depositions in the libel suit of Dr.

Hearne' against the San Franicsoc Chronicle has closed. The case will now be transferred to San Diego, where it will be called for trial on August 18. PLENTY OF EVIDENCE. HANNIBAL July 25. Richard H.

Stilwell and wife arrived home today- from Chicago, accompanied by Mrs. Susie Hayward, and it is thought that Mrs. Hayward's mission here is to go before the grand Jury and tell all she kribws about the Stilwell murder, and the relations existing between Dr. Hearne and the widow of the man, prior to and after the murder. Mahon, counsel for the San Francisco paper, says that they have plenty of good evidence to defeat the libel suit Dr.

Hearne and wife are still In the city, and will remain here until after the grand jury Teports. It is generally believed that Hearne wants the grand Jury to return an indictment against him, as he feels confident that he cannot be convicted of murder. Amos J. Stilwell and a committee composed of three grand jurors is investigating the evidence brought out in the deposition, and reports are expected soon. TOOK HIS LI7E.

The mail driver at Market 'Lake reports that a courier has arrived at Rexburg, Idaho, from Jackson Hole with the report that a fight occurred on Tuesday evening, and twenty white men Were killed.

It Is certain that all of the passes are closely guarded In and out of -Jackson Hole; -which accounts for me meager news. Troops win be im mediately piloted to Wind River, and it is not likely that any trouble will be made after their arrival. It Is feared that the Indians will take ad vantage of the few numbers of set tlers and commit wholesale murder be fore soldiers can Interfere.

Four hundred Lemhi Indians are re ported to have joined the Bannocks on Fail River, and are preparing to make an onslaught upon the whites. It is pro cable that Gov.

"I know these parties were Holmes, Minnie Williams and two of the Pitzel children because week before last I was visited by a Philadelphia detective and one from the central station here. They showed me photos of a man, woman and three children. I identified the picture of the man as that of Holmes, and that of the woman as his wife, and those of the children I identified as the boy and girl who were at my house.

The picture of the older girl I could not say anything about, as she was not with the other children when I kept them as lodgers.

A correspondent in Rio Janeiro telegraphs that the Italian government refuses to accept the referendum' treaty providlhg for a settlement of the claims of that coun try for alleged outrages committed during the revolution. Despite documents dating back to colonial times, wherein England recognizes the sovereignty of the Portuguese, that country now denies Brazil's Jurisdiction in Trinidad Island.

The Nebraska Congress delegation united tonight' In a telegram to Secretary Hoke Smith requesting that all operatlons-against reservation settlers be suspended.

A STIRRING TILT. OMAHA July 25. Capt. Beck and the Congress delegation had a stirring, session at the Winnebago agency this morning, and violence was-imminent for several minutes. The proceedings began when Senator Allen stated 'hat'two Senators and Representatives of the Congress delegation of Nebraska had come for the purpose of Informing themselves as to the cqn-ditlon-of affairs.

In reply to this Capt. Beck stated that the Flournoy Company had sys- tematically robbed the Indians, and that it was a corrupt concern generally. Capt. Beck said that the members of 'the Flournoy Company and every one of Its friends and sympathizers were infamous liars and scoundrels. 'Just as the captain finished, John F.

Myers, the treasurer of that' company, entered the room. "You are not telling the truth, and you know It," he said. If a giant firecracker had been exploded under the captain's feet he could not have been more excited. "Get out of here," he said, "get out of here. This is my office.

I will not have yoa in It I am master here. You have been arrested by the United States Marshal and ought to be in jail. I will not have you here. Get out before I have you thrown out." An exciting scene followed. Senator Thurston remarked: "I wish to know whether or not this delegation, representing a majority of the members of the Nebraska Congressional delegation, Is to proceed without a repetition of such scenes as the one we have just seen enacted.

We are amply able to preserve order without interference or assistance on the part of anyone. If this delegation Is here without right, the right of American citizens to know how their own affairs are being conducted, I for one am ready to retire at once J' Capt Bck jumped to his feet and ex-t cltedly exclaimed that he did not recognize the authority of the delegation. He did not understand that it had any rights which he was bound to respect It had no right to investigate him. He was- responsible to the Secretary of the Interior and to him only. He would not be insulted in his own office.

Mrs. Beck. who. had been sitting at the captain's back and acting as a sort of advisory counsel. In a voice loud enough be heard, referred to the 'vyho had spoken as an in sclent man and an insulting She suggested $hat the captain ought to order the entire delegation out of his office.

The silence which followed this scene was becoming oppressive, and Capt Beck again arose to his feet "Sit down." Senator-Allen spoke the words. The captain sat down. Senator Allen proceeded without further trouble. Capt Beck submitted letters and telegrams to show that he had the approval of the Interior Department In everything he did. The sentiment of the delegation Is shown by the following telegram sent this afternoon: "To Hon.
