Baker replied Another Great Railway Line to Oonnaet that if it met his approval and the approval of the Kansas delegation in con gress he would do so. The bill was sent Kansas and Texas. The Kansas City, Oklahoma Central Southwestern Railway company filed mence a criminal prosecution against each and every person who was engaged in that unlawful business. This office will see to it, if necessary, that you have some assistance in the prosecution of these cases. The only way by which the unlawful bringing of that class of cattle Into Kansas can be prevented, is by a strict enforcement of the law.

He afterwards became proprietor of a newspaper, the Miner's Tribune, which he published until he was elected to tho California legislature in 1850.

He expressed sympathy with the quatters on the Sutter grant and became involved in the controversy. He was made president of the Squatters' association, came into collision with the land speculators, was shot throgh the body and thrown into prison charged with murder and conspiracy. He was placed on a prison ship and while thus confined he was to the legislature, and after his release served one year In the legislature, where he made the acquaintance of John C. Fremont. He left San Francisco in 1851, and was wrecked 300 miles below that city but escaped In a life boat.

He returned to Massachusetts by way of Havana in 1852, and returned to the praotice of menicine, which he continued until the breaking out of the Kansas troubles, when he was sent by the New England Aid society to Kansas in June, 1854, to prepare the way for a settlement by New England emigrants. In the controversy which followed he became a leader of the free state forces. He was chosen as major general to commend the forces defending Lawrence. He was among the first to take a stand against the enforcement of the "bogus laws" of 1855, and was foremost in organizing a free state government, and provide for a constitutional convention, which met at Topeka in November. He was a delegate, and on the adoption of the new constitution he was elected governor of the proposed state.

The Spanish police have been informed of the return of three Barcelona agents to Spain, and are making every effort to capture them.

The main plot against Dupuy was hatched In Barcelona by a Spanish fugitive of the French anarchists. Three men were designated by lot to execute it. They were to cross the border about the middle of August and were to assassinate the premier during his absence from Paris.
