ENTERED AT POST-OFFICE, LAPORTE

IIILL{FI|PIRIHG LLN^CUFTNCET.
It seems to be pretty well settled
that Governor Hill will not succeed
Senator Evarts. The Governor has
apparently made up bis mind that
the Senatorship would practically
shelve him. Therefore, he'll have
none of it, although he will con
tinue to manifest a lively interest in
the process of naming a candidate.
Iu spite of the warnings that
come up from ail over the country
where Democrats most do dwell,
that the name of Cleveland stands
for Democracy these days, the Gov
ernor continues to consider himself
» candidate for the Presidency. It
has been political gossip for some
time that he intends to try it again
take the nomination for Governor
next year for the third time, and
hazard his Presidential aspirations
upon the result. The Governor's
personal organ, the Albany limes.,
threw out the suggestion with the i
object of drawing the fire of the op-'
position :<nd rounding up its magni
tude. It has succeeded fairly well, |
and dosen't seem to scare worth a'
cent. In a review of the situation :
it remarks:
Ah, but the Mugwumps! They
will knife David, gays ono of the
Republican editors. But that is
just what happened in 1838, we re
ply, and the knife was not long
enough or sharp enough to make a
scratch. One of the best reasons
given for again placing Governor
Hill in the field is that his candid
ac} r would happily rid us of that
parasitical nuisance, the Mugwumps.
Drive them off send them away,
eliminate and banish them forever.
It is a consummation most devoutly
to be wished. Governor Hill would
make a campaign which would for
ever emancipate the Democratic
party of New York from their as
sociation, from their machinations
and their treachery and send them
hack where they belong—to the lte
pulilieahs. We repeat that in our
judgment the renomination of David
B. Hill for Governor furnishes the
true key to the situation.
If it is Governor Hill who is thus
talking through his newspaper
organ it would seem that he is more
earnestly considering the proposi
tion than most people have given
him the credit for. But in making
up his estimates he will do well not
to confine the opposition to the Re
publicans and Mugwumps. Some
room must le left on his slate for
calculations regarding the attitude
of the thick and thin Cleveland men.
New York is still too small a place
for Cleveland and Hill both, and
this fact may become strikingly ap
parent as 1892 approaches.
CAPTAIN WALLACE KIMED.
lie VjOncm His I.ife in a Skirniinli With
I lie Indian-.
Several Soldiers an 1 a Number of
Redskins Also Slain.
PIKE RIDGE, Dec. 29. —Curiers
from the Bad Lands who arrived
here this morning announced that a
bloody and desperate conflict oc
cured this morning on Porcupine
Creek between the United States
troops and the hostiles. Big Foot's
band had been surrounded by the
troop 6, and when the former was
being disarmed by Colonel Forsvth
a bloody encounter took place.
Captain Wallace, commanding K
Troop of the Seventh Cavalry, was
killed ; Lieutenant Garlington, of
the same regiment, was shot in the
arm. Several soldiers were killed
and a number of Indians bit the
dust.
The greatest excitement prevails
here among agency employees, and
also among the friendlies, many of
whom are relatives of the young
bucks now on the war path. Grave
fears are entertained for the safety
of this post. Details of the battle
are expected hourly. The courier
who brought the news could only
give the facts relating to the onset.
The above news was substantiated
by an official dispatch received at
headquarters ot the Department of
the Flatte. It caused a great deal
of excitement and regret. It had
teem fond'v hoped l>y all the de
partment officers that the difficulty
would be averted without bloodshed,
especially as the campaign seemed
to be 011 the eve of closing. The
manner in which the Indians acted,
however, as described in this morn
ing's telegrams, caused some of the
Indian lighters to feel that treachery
would be practiced when the troops
came to the actual work of disarm
ing them. These fears have been
realized.
The Seventh Cavalry is the regi
ment, the contingent of which died
around Custer in 1878, and the fate
of some of its members now will
have an effect on the survivors
which will not be bo at all friendly
towards the hostile*.
It is reported that another fight
has occurred, this time near the
agency. This afternoon one of
Colonel Forsyth»s troops of the
Seventh Cavalry, was fired 011 by
some Indian who went out from the
Rosebud camp near Pine Ridge, and
011 their return the}' fired into the
agency. This caused a skirmish, in
which two soldisrs were wounded.
The Indians who were camped near
where this skirmish took place,
moved west to a creek near the
agency. Owing to the absence of
the cavalry there is great trepida
tion here. Indian scouts who have
just come in say that but few of
Rig Foot's men are left alive.
SHOT DOWN UY A 13 IMIA II IV\.
THREE QUICKLY KNCRIFKUIL.
WI-LKES-BARRE, Dec. 29 The|
little mining hamlet known as!
Broderiek's Patch, which is located
under the shadow of the mammoth :
breaker of tin Wyoming Valley!
Coal Company, was thrown into a 1
state ol excitement to-day over »'
most brutal and terrible tragedy, !
which has resulted in the death of
three persons by gunshot wounds.
The lirst. telephonic reports were
the most misleading, announcing j
that Michael Curley had' shot his'
wife and two Hungarians over
money matters,afterwards attempted
suicide. The Associated Press rep-'
resentative immediately visited the
scene, about six miles from this city,
where he learned that John Tirello, I
a Hungarian from Edgerton, who
had been in the hamlet for a few
days, entered the saloon of Michael
Curley, and in the presence of the
latter's five year old daughter,
Mamie, who was holding an infant,
sLot Mrs. Cur ley, who was working
at a wash tub in the front part of
the bar room, and then shot Curley,
who had just came down stairs.
Tirello next turned and shot a
man named Michael Hodok, a Hun
garian, who died instantly, and
then laying the revolver upon the
prostrate form of Curley decamped
for parts unknown. lie has beeu
traced as far as the stone bridge at
Wyoming three miles uway.
The shot entered Mrs. Curley's
head from the back, alid she died in
stantly. Curley was shot through
the forehead aud lived two hours.
The body of Curley lies in the sa~
loon where the deed was committed.
The body of llodok was taken to
the residence of his brother, a short
distance awav, while the remains of
Mrs. Curley were carried to the resi
dence of Inr mother, who also keeps
a saloon.
There was apparently only five
persons in the room at the time of
the shooting, Curley, his ' wife,
Hodok, Tirello and the little girl. .
The first three are dead and Tirel
lo has thus far escaped the officers.
The child is too young to make
an intelligable statement. The
theory that Tirello did the shooting
is most reasonable, but there are
few persons who hold that Curlcv
shot IJodok in an altercation, and
Tirello who was implicated, did the
rest of the shooting. The former
theory is probably correct.

NEW YORK, Dec. 28—The prin
ciples of the Knights of Labor are
toward a different, construction of
society and the members,
even in the trade locals,
learn to believe the present wag>-
system is not the most equable, and
that the larger reforms can only be
secured through the ballot box and
by legislation in State and national 1
Legislatures. It, is this belief which
leads'them to appoint legislative
committees to attend at State and
the national capitals to urge the
passage'of bills in the interest of
wage Workers. To further this
legislation and to decide on the
measures to bo presented annual
sessions of delegates, representing
the. various local and district as
semblies, are held in nearly every
Slate. Such a congress will meet in
Albany January 13 ''for the purpose
of advancing the best interests of
the Knights of Labor, both politi
cally and otherwise."
T. B. Maguire is president of the
congress and Joseph 11. Manison, of
Troy, is secretary. The schedule of
subjects that will come before the
body for action will he the abolition
of the contract labor system in ' the
prisons and reformatories of the
State, the prevention of the employ
ment ol Pinkerton "or other armed
hirelings" in strikes, the amend
ment of the Weekly Payment law so
as to ajply to railroad corporations,
the amendment or revocation of
section lf>Bofthe Penal code (Con
spiracy law), the abolition of the
contract system on all State work'
the supplying of all freight cars
with automatic airbrakes and safety
couplings, the equalization of taxes,
the passage of a ten hour surface
railroad bill, providing for a uni
form system of text books in the
schools ol the State, and to reduce
the legal rate of interest. The
Knights intend to pay special at
tention to the New York Central
for its prosecution of members of
the order and one of the subjects
scheduled for discussion is: "That
everything in our power should he
done to have the property of the
State of New York-, now illegally
held by the Now York Central Pail
road, returned to the State." The
extension of the weekly payment
law to cover railroad corporations is
another subject in which the Central
is interested, as is the ten hour sur
face railroad bill.
The congress of local and district
assemblies will be called onto con
sider a law "to prevent the bribery
of State officers by railroad or other
corporations, sueli as giving railroad
passes to legislators or other State
employees," and the sending of
messages by such free of charge bv
telegraph companies. As the con
gress is the first of three conven
tions of workingmen to be held in
Albany in January, whatever it
does will hive an influence on the
others, an . although they may not
unite in any demands for legisla
tion, they will instruct their several
committees to urge such measures.
This will particularly apply to the
contract labor system in prisons,
Pinkerton men and the conspiracy
law amendment.— Ex.
