Meager news his reached here to the effect that the cattlemen and range rustlers have had an encounter, in which the attacking partj was repulsed, and the thieves killed eigt't men and wounded several others. It is also stated that the robbers lost heavily Owing to the isolated character ot the country definite uews cannot be obtained for several days. Sheriff Rose, of Dillon, brings this news, which be beard at Lima, Idaho a few days ago. Reports of an en gageni ot have been daily iX peeled, as men are marching iu on the rustlers from all sections. This encounter is supposed to have occurred on Green River, where the outlaws have their winter quarters, TWO DEAD MEN. Word comes Irnm Billings, Mont., that the bod? of a man, as yet unidentified. was tound Wednesdey eveuing in a se cluded place about ten miles from there. He bad been shot in the bead, and bad been dead, it is conjectured, about ten days. Two dead hordes were also tound witN bridles on, lying close bv. There have been two others mysterious disan pearaores of Wyoming rustlers who were en route to Uaoada within tbe past two weeks. This band of horse and cattle thieves was incorporated under the laws of Wyoming, under a high sounding name. Plans lor a war oi extermination have been in progress of formation siocr last tall. Besides tbe party of tweDty five that started out from Bi lings, it is learned a party left Big Timber March 17, under tbe leadership of Him Roberts. The party comprised thirteen men, all of them frontier and mountain men. They loaded, two cars with riding and pack animals, guns, ammunition and food. Their departure was kept a secret as far as possible, the newspapers being isked to withhold all inform-xion for the I re.'ent It is row known $100,000 baa been raised for this expedition and tbi men are paid $1000 each to go out and tight. The leaders set $2500 Blood v work is expected as tbe outlaws are de termined not to yield to arrest. Blaine's Friends) are Mna. Washington, April 8. The stones which have been assiduously circulated tbe past weeK in reference to Mr, Blaine's supposed willingness to accept tbe nomi nation for tbe presidency bave created a good deal of comment in Washington, and have been a source of anuoyance to Mr. B'ainc's friends. Senator Hale said today to a correspondent that there was absolutely no foundation for them. "I do not speak for Mr. B'aine,'' he said, "be- t ause I bave no authority to do so; but I know be stands today as he did when be wrote .bis letter of withdrawal. He has not reconsidered bis determination, and be has given no intimation of any inten tion to reconsider it. There is not tbe slightest truth in the report that he was worried into writiDg that letter. He did it after full co isideration, of his own free will, and in opposition to the wishes of some of his best friends, and nothing has happened since to make him change bis mind.' A senator who has been as close to Mr. Blaine during tbe past twenty years as any man in public life said today that "the agination which had been started during the past few days did not originate with any body who was friendly to the sec rutary of state. ,'Mr. Blaine does not want the nomination," be said, "and be could not take it. It is unjust to him to con tioue tbe nse of bis name." Broke His Skull. Spokane, Wash., April 8 John Solo man, a Spokane Indian, came into town this morning and swore out a warrant for the arrest of another Indian, Sam Moixto, and bis brother, Boscele, charging them with assaulting ith attempt to kill Ellis Sal Su-Tee-Cbee, an Indian who lives down on Hangman creek near tbe old wigwam of Chief Garry. As near as could be learned, tbese lour Indians were drinking and gambling near ibe Seattle, Lake Shore and Eastern bridge, west of tbe city, when a dispute arose between them. Boscelo seized a heavy piece of iron and struck Ellis over the bead, frac turing his skull aud perhaps inflicting fa tal injuries. Tbe fracas occurred night before last, and Sal 8u Tee Cliee was taken to a tepee on Hangman creek, where be bag been lingering between life and death ever since Constable Nolan and Officer Barlow arrested three Indians this morning whom Soloman accused of assaulting Sal-Su -Tee-Cbee, and brought tbem too the city and put'them in care of Judge Dunning until their case can be investigated. The Insanity Plea. Melbourne, April 8 It is believed the triai of Deeming will prove one of the most interesting ever taken place any where in tbe world. As already stated, the defense will be insanity, and many experts will be called to testify as to tbe spec es of madness with wmch bis coun set claims be is afflicted. No denial baa yet been made by. tbe defense that Deem ing did hot commit all tbe murders attri buted to bim. In fact, bis counsel by bis tactic admissions at tbe coroner's inquest, shows be believes bis client is at least guilty of tbe killing with which be is charged, but claims that, owing to tbe congenital influences, be is not responsi -ble for his homicidal mania. Efforts will be made to secure a prolonged adjourn ment of his trial in order to enable wit nesses to come from England to testify as to tbe state of the prisoner's mind when he was a boy. Swift Ketrlbatton. Berlin, April 8. Deacon von Pon ioeki, an important citizen of Eoscilec, Prussian Poland, was fatally shot in bis bed by fonr masked men last night His wife, lying alongside ber husband was uninjured. The village was aroused and an expedition organized to bunt tbe assassins. Tbe assassins were surrounded in a wood nearby and two were shot dead by villagers. Tbe other two, seeing escape impossible, shot themselves, dying instantly. When tbe bodies were ex atnmed, letters of instruction were found on tbem with the words, Executive Committee of the Polish Anarchists," containing instructions to murder Deacon von Poo in ski and to commit other out rages, showing that tbe Polish anarchists are thoroughly organ ized . Election Murder In Halhenr. . Yale, Orn April 6. William Humbert was shot and killed yesterday in the road, about a balf mile from bis residence on Dry Creek, between Yale and Westfall. A primary election of delegates to the Democratic county convention was beld at tbe little schoolbouse on tbe Bully Creek Flat tbe 5th. William Humbert was there, and during the evening be and John Bailey bad a quarrel about voting, Afterwards Bailey was around tbe polls with 'bis arm cut, claiming that it was done bv Humbert. Humbert lett for home in the evening and had come to tbe bill within sight of his bouse when Jobn Bailev. bia brother William, and a young man, Lee Mullen, who was hired by tbe Bailey bovs, overtook him. Mullen it appears had nothing to do with the kill ing. The Baileys opened fire at close ranee, so close that their victim was powder burned. Humbert was unarmed He was shot four times through tbe back and fell dead trom his horse. The Bailey brothers were arrested that eve oiog, and are now in jail at Vale. Talk ot lynching in tbe Iowa last night iu- ouceu bnerin Fell to put a strong guard in the jail. Nothing was done, however. At the coroner s inquest held yesterday the jury found the killing had been done by tde Btiley brothers.. They are both young men, unmarried and baye beeu engaged in tbe stock business on Bally creek tor several years. Tbe Cotton Tie BUI. Washington, April 9.

Ford, of Mich igau, were delivered, alter which, as a mark ct respect to tbe memory of the deceased, tbe house adjourned. .Harder and Suicide. Winlock, Wash., April 10. A most awful tragedy occurred here at 10:20 to night. Richard Hancock shot and fat ally wounded his wife, and then turning the pistol fired a shot through bis heart. Hancock has been dissipated for some time, and has threatened tbe life of bis wife and family. He was trying to get his wife to get him money, with which to settle some pressing financial matter. and, she refusing, be quarreled with ber. She ran from tbe bouse pursued by her husband, who tired three shots, one pass ing through ber right lung, another through ber abdomen, and tbe third through her wrist. She cannot live till morning. The Miller Murder Case. Colfax, Wash., April 8 A full day has been consumed in tbe examination of J. H, Dwyer, tbe state's first witness in the Miller murder .case Tbe courtroom as crowded, many Oakesdale citizens being present Dwyer was at breakfast in the hotel at Oakesdale when the fatal quarrel occurred. His testimony was straightforward and all adverse to the prisoner. The latter sits in tbe dock, stolid and indifferent to the proceedings. Judge Kelly of Idaho. Boise, Idaho, April 9. The Hon. Mil ton Kelly, a pioneer resident of Idabo, died suddenly here this morning Mr. iielly was, in 1865 by President Lincoln, appointed associate justice of tbe Idabo supreme court, the appoint ment being tbe last official act of tbe martyred president.

What Blaine Wanted. ( Brussels, April 11. The Independ. ence Beige publishes In its night issue tbe first of two articles on The United States, South . America and Europe by Senor Maximilliano Ibanez, tbe well known Chilian writer. He reviews tbe circum stances of tbe Baltimore dispute between the United States and Chili, and attempts to show that the American government was quite wrong and unjustly exacting from first to last. He discards tbe idea that Blaine's policy was merely inspired by electioneering purposes and proceeds to show that it is part and parcel of a general policy aiming at results highly alarming to South American states and European nations, among which Great Britain, France and Germany stand first. Ibanez recalls tbe annexation of Cali fornia to tbe United States; tbe Wash ington cabinet's interference in the war between Uhiu and feru in laiv; tne pressure exercised in order to induce Pern ''to surrender its resources and freedom into the bands of tbe American firm of Grace & Donougbmore;" tbe med dling of tbe United States in the recent Chilian revolution : and, lastly, the Wash ington pan American congress, where, be says, Blaine attempted to destroy tbe in dependence of tbe South American states through tbe arbitration of a court which would have made tne united states master of tbe fate of the new world's Latin republics. - All these facts, besides tbe propose-1 Nicaragua canal, are set forth as show ing that tbe United States is resolved upon achieving, by might or right, tbe dream of a New World zollverein which would place both portions of America under its sway. In Uhlahoma Territory. King Fisher, O. T., April 11. Today there is an almost unbroken line of en campment along tbe borders of tbe Chey enne and Arapahoe reservation, and every moment the ranks of tbe boomers receive recruits. Most ot tbe boomers are of a fine class of immieTaots, although a num ber of Texas negroes, who are poorly equipped, are waiting on tbe south side. In spite ot the viguanoe oi toe soiuiers, some people bave slipped into tbe conn try, and wben tbe opening comes it is prooable every place onering any con cealment will be occupied by "sooners." Tbe facilities of tbe towns along tbe bor der are taxed to tbe utmost to accommo date tbe rnsb. A line has already formed in front of the land office. Tbe townsites ot the six new counties are surveyed and artistically named. Equals the Russian Famine. Atlanta, Gan April 11. The Evening Journal says: Pestilence ana iamine exist in tbe Exposition Mills factory dis trict as terrible as that in tbe czar's do minion. Tbe living are starving by degrees, and tbe dead are unburied. Many of tbe sufferers will be relieved by death before tomorrow dawns. Tbe article goes on to say that in this district ihe people are sufferm? with pneumonia, fever and measles, and have not food. fuel nor clothing. This factory district is just outside the city limits, and is reached oy the Marietta street-car line. It con - sists of over 200 roughly constructed one and two roomed frame bouses. I hi bodies of sufferers, whom death has re lieved, lie in the same room with those whom pneumonia or fever, is last leading to death, who have no one to even band inem a drink ot water, who bave no clothing or bedcovering, who lie about on tbe floor of tbe city ball, at home, or on tbe stieet, and shiver through the bleakness of the long dreary day.

It appears that the peo ple of Yale are very much in earnest about this matter, as yesterday morning Governor Pennoyer received a dispatch from District Attorney Charles F. Hyde at Baker City, stating that be was in re ceipt of a dispatch fron J. N Fell, sheriff ol Malheur country, as follows: I call on tbe governor, through you as district attorney, to send forthwith a co.npany of militia for tbe protection of William and Jobn Bailev, murderers of William Humbert.''

Governor Pennoyer at once telegraphed to Mr. Hyde as follows: Instruct tbe sheriff to summon a posse; if necessary, all of Baker county. An hour after. Governor Pennoyer re ceived this dispatch from District At torney Hyde: The county posse under the conditions is npt sufficient. Place company F, Ore gon National Guard, at my disposal lor four days. A telegram to me will be sufficient. To this Governor Pennoyer replied : Tbe people of Baker county will up hold the law. Summon posse. About noon Governor Pennoyer re ceived tbe following dispatch from Dis trict Attorney Hyde : Tbe murderer happened in Malheur county. Tbe people are all against tbe prisoners, and will not assist tbe sheriff. Lynching is threatened and danger is im minent. Order out our militia. They will not go without orders. Place tbem in my charge for fonr days. .Malheur county pays all the expense. company f ordered out. In reply to this urgent demand, and after having examined tbe law in regard to tbe matter, tbe following dispatch was sent: "To Charles F.

Mr. and Mrs. Loren Trescott are keep ers of tbe government lighthouse at Sand Beach, Michigan, and are blessed with a daughter, four years old. Last April she was taken down with measles, followed with a dreadful cough and turning into a fever. Doctors at home and at Detroit treated ber, but in vain; she grew worse rapidly, UDtil she was a mere "handful of bones." Then she tried Dr. King's New Discovery and after the use of two and a balf bottles, was completely cured. They say Dr. King's New Discovery is worth its weight in gold, yet you may get a trial bottle free at Snipes & Kinersly's drug store. 6 When Baby was sick, we gave her Cestoria, When she was a Child, she cried for Caatoria, When ahe became Itias, she clung to Caatoria, When she had Children, aha gave tnam Castoria.

He had a severe attack of typhoid pneumonia soon after his arrival, and this caused his death. Tbe big-hearted people of the Locks did everything in their power for him, and his widowed mother may be comforted by the knowledge that tender, womanly hands smoothed bis pillow, 'and generous hearts provided for his every need.

A runaway occurred early this morning which made matters lively for a time. Mr. Field's team of horses attached to his milk wagon started on a ran from the residence of Judge Bennett on Fourth street, and ran down that street to Washington, when they turned the corner and collided with a locust tree on the alley in front of Judge Liebe's residence, pulling it np trom the roots.

Fortunately no one was in tbe wagon at the time, and neither animal was injured, al though part of the harness was I adly dam aged. The Jubilee Singers last night at the comt bouse were greeted by a large and en., thusiastio audience, and every number in the programme wu received with rounds of applause.

The prospects for a big yield of fruit of all kinds were never better, and although the season is early there is but little probability of further frosts severe enough to do any damage. Tuesday the Indian woman Nellie left for Pendleton. She was richly, not to say gaudily, dressed in a "toot assemble" - sur mounted with an Easte: bonnet that looked ' ke a section of the morning robes of spring. Her red blanket neatly rolled aod fastened with a shawl strap gave her a distingue ap pearance, and tbe equipoise of her bearing was only equaled by the sang froid with hich she grasped the car rail and swung herself aboard as the train pulled out with the easy grace of a Pullman porter, and the blushing diffidence and careless indifference peculiar to the saddle-oovered colored maid-' en of the Oregon woods.
