IV HARRISBURG, TUESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 20, 1890. ESTABLISHED 1831. VOL.05. 2fO. XT.

THE INTERCEPTED LETTER. A STOItY OP TUB DAYS WAS NEAR 178. WHEN I. KB Ln Innocent Tlrnt Was Found to Contain luformatlon Very Acceptable to the Confederate. Wlio Would Have Made It Wnrin for Harrisburg If They Could Have fiotten Here.

Wrlttea for tlie Telegraph. It was in Jane. 1363, when Lea's ragged army was making its way North to batten on tha farmers of Pennsylvania that I was scot by the chief of the secret service to en deavor to ferret oat the mysterious manner in which news of the military operations in and about Harrisburg were so quickly trans mitted to the commander of the Confederate forces. It seemed, from the taiorement of the Confederates, that they knew all about the defenses of the Capitol of Pennsylva nia and were disposed to view them with contempt, but just how they got the informa' tion was what mystified ns. had some knowledge of Harrisburg and vicinity, hav ing been born and raised in the Cumberland Valley, so that 1 haa no neea to sees mior mution on that score.

I went at once to the Cunitol and presented my letter of introduc tion to Governor Cartin, and he promised to nid ma all he could, even offering to detail flveral of his force in the Executive De partment as my assistants. I declined his offer, but asked for and got hivt was better a pass through our lines that would see me past the numerous lines of guards that were stationed at almost everv street corner, at tne oia ioot Dnage frnasinrr the Susaaehann and along the Carlisle turnpike. I made my headquarters nt Wormlevsburtr. a smalltown on the Cum' berland side of the river, and at once set about mr work. For the first twenty four hours I Aid nothincr.

but took a walk about the for tification and up the Carlisle road as far as Oyster's Point, noticing particularly mac me guards were very careiess, ana am ui in lu mr nass once in a dczen times that I nassed them. The next day I again went nnt tha Carlisle tiike and on my return topped at a house along the road to get a drink. As I talked with the rather sharp featured female who loaned me a tin enp I saw a woman seated at a table in the front room writing a letter. She could not see me, as the vine trailing over the door was between us. Suddenly she looked up and addressing the woman with whom I was conversing, said "Mattie, how many of those New York soldiers did you say came lait night Two regiments The woman at the door give a quick start and stepped inside.

I could hear them conversing in a whisper, and when the woman next appeared her manner was flustered, and be did not look npon me very graciously when I handei back her cup. The ineident, however, set me to thinking, and the more I thought, the more was I convinced that there was something wrong. What did ehe mean by that question about the New York soldiers Why did she want to know their number I determined to watch the house. As I reached a point in the road where it carved I looked back and saw that the woman was watching roe. That satisfied me tha something was wrong.

The next day, putting on a long linen duster and a straw hat of generous brim, and scuffing my trousers into my boot legs, I felt disguised sufficiently to again visit the neighborhood of the two women, selecting an hour jast about dusk. As I neared the house I saw a woman go through the back yard and up tho Cumberland Valley railroad track. It was tho letter writer of the day before. I followed her, keoping to the road while she walked on the ties. Near Camp Hill she stopped at a cross road that ran over into York county, and sat down on the grass.

I crept slowly along behind the fence, and, watching my opportunity, crossed the track when her head was turned, as she was looking down the lane. We were there perhaps fifteen minutes when I heard the sound of voices, and peering over the fence I saw her talking to a man. lie was a little bit of an undersized man with a peculiar whining voice, and ho seemed to be in distress. I heard him say 'Now, Sallie, you'll git me into a muss, and I wouldn't have anything happen for the world." "Shut up," said the woman, "you always was white livered. lou take this letter and give it to a man who will call for it early in the morning, and if you don't keep yonr mouth quiet we'll all get into trouble.

Nobody's going to find you out." It was getting interesting for me, the more to as the fellow said "Well, I'll take it this time, but recollect, this is the last time. I'm not going to git trouble through you, and I won't come any more." "All right," Bftid the woman, "I won't need you any more. This is the last time. Come over on Sunday and I'll have something for you. Good night," and she turned and walked down the track.

The fellow stood there a minute and then started down the road. I followed him and was on him before he could yell. lie was small, but, oh, how he did fight. I conld have broken him In half, but I did not want to hurt him. I choked him into submission, gagged him with my handkerchief and then yanked him along by the collar until I met a guard, and in a few moments the officer of the day was on the spot.

The fellow was taken into a house near by and searched, and during the entire operation he cursed and raved. I have never before nor since heard a man wear so artistically. In his coat pocket, where he had thrust it carelessly, was the letter the woman gave him. It had no address, and purported to be a letter from a wife to her soldier husband in the Union army. It was well put together, and the punctuation and spelling were perfect.

In the middle of the page was this paragraph: "Willie is always asking1 for papa, and today wrote you a letter. To please the dear llttlo fellow I told him I would send it to you. Here it Is." Then followed a strip of paper on which were scattered numerous marks, such as a mall child would make with a pen. This trip was pasted to tho letter, and was followed by more information about home work. It was a most innocent letter, find I felt like a fool after I had read it.

I must have looked foolish, too, the more so as the officer of the guard laughed nt me and made a remark about something being fishy. I must confess I was non plused, and I was about to advise turning the fellow loose, whsn something told me not to. Turning to the officer, I told him to put the man under guard until morning, and I would call on him at that time. I took that letter back to Wormleysburg with mo, and I read it and re read it, and the more I read it the deeper grew the mystery. Something seemed to tell me that that strip containing the cbjld's letter was the key to the whole business.

I had often heard of transparent letters and this might be one. I held it up to the light, but that revealed nothing. Where the strip was pasted I could not read through, and I dropped the letter into a bowl ef water to let It soak that I might remove the strip. As I slowly peeled one piece ot paper from the Other ray hair weat up. The child's letter was the koy.

On the back of it was written th following note: "Two New York regiments atrived on Tuesday night, and are located in Fort Washington. Outside of the New York regiments and the raw militia from the interior of the State and the few companies rvvruiieti iu jupnui wuuiji tiinre are no troops worth mentioning. Fort Washington I. I 11. 1 1 11 is uuub uu a Biuo uiii, nuu iu rear is a bluff eighty feet high caused by a cut for the railroad.

But few large guns. The railroad bridge across the river has been sawed, bnt the foot bridge is all right. The city can ha shelled from the river bank. A small force could drive everything before it. I couldn't sleep that night, and lost no time in hurrying to JUarrisbnrg ana laying mv iniormauon neiore uoveruor vurnu.

Nothing was done that night, but the next morninz a guard was sent to take possession of the house in which the two women lived. The birds had flown. Somebody must have given them a hint, as the guards at the bridge said that two women bad crossed to Harrisburg early in the morning, just after day break. The man on whom the letter was found was taken to Washington under guard and pieced in Old Capitol Prison, i nvr fnnnd out what became oi mm, al though I made inquiry. There were some stranea things done for prisoners in those days.

But I stopped the source of informa tion for the rebels. t. m. j. CORONACH.

14. The long. looked for battle between Jack Dempsey and Robert Fitzsimmons for the middle. eight championship of the world was fought here to night and resulted in an easy victory for the Australian in thirteen rounds. From ths start Dempsey was over matched and came near being settled in the third round, but he recovered qnickly and man aged to steer clear of defeat nntil the fatal round, when by a swinging blow on the jaw he was knocked out.

How Dempsey Look To day. New Obleans, Jan. 15. Jack Dempsey slept nnder the influence of opiates last night The bridge of his nose is broken and his ribs were so sore that the physician who accompanied him from the club administered a strong narcotic. This morning be looked badly brnised and swollen about the face and mouth, and a piece of skia the Biza of a man's hand, is scraped from the back of his neck.

Kilrain nays Dempsey nose was broken in the fourth round. Tha Oregon man was clearly outclassed from the start, bnt he stnek to it until nature would no longer exert herself. Fitzsimmons fought fair and even, but he is simply a heavy weight sweated out and trained down to requisite figure. Mnldoon says that with twenty pounds more of muscle Fitzsimmons could fight any man living, Sullivan not barred. As a result of the fight it is not unlikely that the question of height and reach will hereafter cut as important a figure in the making of matches as that of weight.

French Physicians Against Koch. PABIS, Jan. 16. The French physicians criticise Koch's report upon the ingredients of his lymph. They say that the report is incomplete and does not indicate the quantity of a dose or substances composing the liquid.

They add that the remedy is shrouded in mystery and hold that the necessity for caution is unabated. French critics also say that its efficiency has nqt been shown and that no patient treated, accoreing to the Koch system, in Franco has been cured.

The circle is drawing close about the hostiles. and a settlement of affairs, of whatever nature, cannot be far distant.

This morning Little Wound, Little Hawk, Crow Dosr and Old Calico came in from the hostiles to talk with General Miles, under the escort of Young Man Afraid of nis Horses. Other chiefs are expected. The council is nrogre3sing satisfactorily. Colonel Corbin. Assistant Adiutant General, an nounced that the chiefs have assented to the snrrendeeof their arms, and that the latter will probably be brought in to night or to morrow and be tagged.

January 12th, as follows "The Indians have moved np White Clay creek, and camped within sight of onr troops and not over two miles distant Everything indicates that the military will have full con trol of the entire body.

There may be and probably will be trouble with a few small detached bands of hostile, bat the great majority of those who revolted against the 'authority of the United States Government have removed their war paint and are camping near the friendly Indiana to the southwest of the ageucy, just across White Clay creek. This afternoon the lirules abandoned their proposed camp near Red Cloud's house, and pitched their tepees with the Ogallallas, forming a camp nearly a mile and a half in length. All the guns, rifles and Hotchkiss guns in the agency are trained in that di rection to night, and the indications of life in that quarter will be watched with in terest.

Frank West, and Captain Wallace; Lient. Sands, and Captain Keer, all of the Sixth cavalry. General Wheatcn is now flanking the Indians on the west and Colonel Sanford is flanking them on the east. The missing commands will be ready to respond at a moment's notice. The band of Young Man Afraid of His Horse, which has been visiting the Crows for the past two months, and numbering about 300, arrived to day.

They were accompanied by about fifty of the most aged and worn out hostile squaws that have ever been seen on the reservation. Among the demands made by the chiefs at the big talk with General Miles yesterday was the abolition of Rosebud Agency. The reason they advanced for this radical move was the fact that the Indian! were continu ally moving from one agency to the other, contrasting the methods of each and longing for the comforts of Pine Ridge as compared with the many disadvantages which they claimed to have experienced at Rosebud. The chiefs were pleased at the kindly treatment they had received at the hands of General Miles, and left immediately for General Miles demands! the surren der of the slayers of Lieutenant Casey, and the chiefs promised to accede to the demand.

Pine Ridge Agency, Jan. 15. The Indians have at last come, or rather are coming, in at this writing noon. They string along the west bank of White Clay creek for a distance of two miles. They are mounted, walking and riding in wagons and in fact are advancing in every manner known to them.

They are driving and leading immense herds of ponies. some of them are entering the friendlies camp; others are pitching their tepees on the west bank of White Clay. These are Ogallallas. Tho Brules, however, are camping in the bottom around Red Cloud's house, and half a mile from the agency buildings. The number of Indians who have come in are estimated at 1,500.

The' arms surrendered by tho Indians consist of simply two shot guns, four rifles and a broken carbine. This surrender is an evidence that the In dians do not proposo to give np all their guns, and that they have hidden their beat weapons in the hills. It is known that every buck is the owner of a weapon. POORLY ARMED INDIANS. Thu Far Fifty One Juns Have Been Turned Over to General Miles.

Pine Ridge Agency, S. Jan. 16, via UuahviJle, Web. The question which comes uppermost in the minds of everybody around the agency to day is whether or not General Miles will insist upon the complete disarming of the Indians. It is a question to which no answer can be obtained.

This morning about twenty Indians came into the agency under Little Hawk, a dilapidated looking lot, and surrendered thirty one guns, some Winchesters and some as old as the flood. The weapons were received in the name of General Miles and turned over to Agent Pierce and tagged with tho owner's and chief's name for safe keeping. The delegation was as motley a crowd of crafty warriors as mortal ever gazed npon. 1 bey kept their eyes steadily fixed npon General Miles' headquarters, and seemed disappointed because he did not appear. Their clothing was not searched and no one doubted that they bore hidden arms which they would not hesitate to use in an emergency.

Thus far fifty one guns have been turned over oat of at least 1,400 which the hostiles are believed to possess. The Cheyennes belonging to Little Chief's and Standing Elk's band left to lay for Tongue river. It has been decided that they cannot livo comfortably among the Sioux. Robbfd of Her Uolden Hair.

Tho Ball Opens. It was about 12 o'clock when Mr. Robin son arose and moved that the Senate do now go into executive aession for the purpose of considering appointments by the Governor. "Now for it," remarked Senator Smith. and everybody settled down ia expectancy of a row.

senator itoss, bland and suave, with a velvetry voice and polished diction, trusted that Senator Robinson would not force the resolution. Then Senator Rosa told the Senate that there was a great misunderstanding concerning the alti tude of the Democratic Senators in confirming Governor Beaver a noml nations. There waa a precedent for de lay in this matter set in 1887, and he trusted that no confirmations would be made until Governor Pattison was inaugurated. Toe Democrats did not wish to antagonize any of Mr. weaver a appointments, and be promised that they would make no factional or politi cal objection to them after the inauguration.

and hoped tho appointments of the inoaming uovernor would be treated in the aame war. tie made ibis statement to dispel what ia a mistaken conception ot the sit nation. lie trusted that the precedent of 1 887 would be adhered to and that Senator Robinson wonld withdraw his motion. Senator Robinson Talk. Senator Robinson, in the most courteous way, remarked that be had listened with great pleasure to the explanation of Senator lioss ot the Democratic aide of the case, and it waa quite different from what be bad been led to expect when he waa estopped from caning np a nomination yesterday.

lie waa glad to hear of the change. While be did not agree with Senator Rosa as to precedents, be wonld withdraw his motion. Senator Uobla Is Ilapp. The geaial Senator Gobin argued that the whole matter had been happily solved, and thought it proper that all nominations should be considered on their merits. He wonld meet the Democracy on this plan and sup port the new Governor, and make him feel that he ia not only the Governor of tha Democracy, but of the State and all its people.

The Youthful Penrose). Senator Penrose, who was not wielding the gavel as President pro arose to re mark that he did not agree with Senator Ross in his views, and he resented the insin uation that tho Republicans wonld make any factious opposition. it was tne right of all to have appointments confirmed at once, and they should not be laid over. "We should not so far forget the interests of the public business as to let petty peanut politics interfere, said benator Penrose. rben he offered a resolution to the effect that the Senate shall hold an executive ses sion on Tuesday evening, January 20th, at 8 o'clock to consider appointments sent in bv the Governor, and all such appointments shall be acted upon in the order as they have been sent to the benate.

Ross Objects. Senator Ross offered a mild objection to this resolution. He thought the Senate shenld not bind itself to follow a fixed pro gramme. It evidently pained the bland Senator to do so, bnt he moved to strike ont the words "in the order in which they have been sent in, and thus leave it optional as to which nomination thocld be taken up. Senator Tkempsoa Agrees.

Senator Thompson supported the resolu tion, and said it could do no harm if all parties were as fair as they pretended to be. He would vote for any nomination sent iu by Governor Pattison, if the nominee is a fit man, no matter how Bourbon his Democ racy. The Sanve Rso Again. Senator Ross smoothly insinuated that there might be objections that would create i delay if nominations were taken np in the order as sent to the Senate, bnt Senator Pea rose assured him confidently that action on a case did not imply final action there were dozens of different forma of action aside from confirmation. He allayed Mr.

Ross' nervous fears, which be said created suspicion. Mr. Penrose told Mr. Ross, also very confidentially, that the Republicans are not here to obstruct business by an exhibition or petty pontics. There ought to be no contention ia this matter, bat Mr.

Rjss by his doubts inspired doubt in others. Oreea's Fireworks. Senator Gresn said that elaborate fire works had been prepared for Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock, and holding a session then would sadly interfere. There were tears in Mr. Green's voice as he moved to amend Mr.

Penrose's resolution by fixing the hour at II A. M. on Wednesday, January 21st There was some little sparring over this amendment and it was defeated. A Session ma Tuesday Night.
