(Si (HANTS Pi. The Hazelgrove & Mullet Concentrator Completely Demoralized by an Unknown Horde. THE LOSS IS QUITE SERIOUS Deputy Marshall Bush Goes Into the Locality and Returns with tho Suspected Author. Deputy I'nited States Marshal Joe Hush, who rarely goes gunning without returning with a trophy of tho chase, came in this morning from Bingham with J. J. Gibbons, charged with hi v-ing dynamited the llaelgrade & Mul-let concentrating mill into total demo-lition. The act was one of the most diaboli-cal of which the avenging spirit is cap-able, and tho author, whoever he may be. has aroused the .'laming indignation of an entire camp. Jt ap-pears from what Duputy Hush learned at the scene of wreckage that the own- - ers of the property who have not had occasion to operate it for some time have had occasion to dismiss several parties recently and that Cihhons was among the list. It was made known that lie Had ftworn Vengeance and when tho explosion with its desolating results came suspicion a once leveled its strong finger at him. The explosion shook the camp to its innermost. It was while most of the deni.ens of the thriving little city were slumbering that a blast came that rat-tled windows aud stirred up founda-tions generally. Following the course of the bolt they found the mill that represents an outlay of several thous-and dollars in utter ruin. The engine and boiler were blown to fragments while the walls of the mill had been re-duced to a heap of debris. Intense in-dignation ensued. Talk of lynching was freely indulged in but the dynami-ter had Mate Hla Kacnpe and it was agreed to let the matter rest. A warrant was subsequently placed in the hands of Ueputy Hush who landed (Jibbons and brought him to this city together with the witnesses. At the time of his ar-rest (iibbons told conflicting stories as to his whereabouts on the occasion of the offense but the evidence after be-ing weighed by County Attorney Mur-phy induced him to believe that there was serious doubt as to the guilt of (iibbons and at his motion the prisoner was discharged. The search for the right party however will not be abandoned and other arrests are likely to follow. Won't Il lixrte he Mn. SvnAi t rtE, N. V., Jan. S. Vice Pres-ident Dana of the Whitemun and Barns manufacturing company which has joined the American. Harvester com-pany was interviewed todav and denied the report that 10,000 men would be discharged by tho new company. THEY MUST DRESS CONSPICUOUSLY, Austrian (lovernmeut Officials to ho Kniwn Br Their Dress. Vienna, Jan. 2. Special to Tub Times, Tho imperial decree compell-ing government officials to wear showy uniforms on all occasions, went into ef-fect today. The decree divides the civil service into four categories and eleven ranks, after the manner of tho Russian. Ju the first rank of the tirst category stands the prime minister. In the second rank come ministers, judges of the supreme court, and so on down to tho eleventh rank, which includes petty clerks. In future all these gentlemen are to wear as ordinary half-dres-green coats with gray pantaloons, swotds. military caps, and mulberry overcoats with white doeskin gloves. They are to salute in military fashion, and the official of tho lower rank is to be careful that he salutes first. Tho different government officers are distin-guished by the colors of tho coat fac-ings, and these colors are scarlet, dark green, pompadour, violet, blue, light graen. cornflower, blue, orange, dark brown and canary yellow. For gala occasions the wearers of these uniforms are to provide themselves with green pantaloons and cocked hats. Tho decree is very obnoxious to the civil service servants and it is fiercely by the newspapers, which claim that tho'mililiaryiug of the civil service must have a great number of unpleas-ant consequences, and cannot but effect a vast change in social manners and customs. Tho decree is approved of only by tho miuislry. It was promul-gated with the object of diminishing nationalistic difficulties between mem-bers of the civil service, but it must fail to accomplish this purpose as Hungary declines to adopt the new rulo. The moral scperation, therefore, between tho two halves of the monarchy will become moro and morn apparent. Tho officials would not object so streniously to tho aecre, perhaps, if their pay was increased to meet the expense which tho new rule will refine them to incur. AN ARKANSAS SHOOTING SCRAPE.

Dt BMN, Jan. 2. I'aruell arrived in this city and is holding n long confer-ence with Timothy I). Harrington and Dr. Joseph Konney. It is understood tho conference between Parnell and O'Brien will be resumed ou Tuesday . next. The Fight Renewed. Conic, Jan 2. The feud existing be-tween the Irish and tho which has been smouldering sinca tho election in North Kilkenny, again burst forth fiercely aud a most bitter feeling prevails on both sides. Mayor Horgan, nn earnest supporter rf Parnell, was installed at the town hall as mayor of Cork yesterday, and it was a scene of enthusiasm on tne part of tho Parnellites. No s were present. A rumor was circulated early in the day that there was trouble brewing for , the ParnelLtn mayor. Tho trouble manifested itself when arrangements wore being made during the morn-ing for the usual installation cere-mony at the Catholic cathedral, which has always formed part of the day's proceedings. Tho Parnellites were then informed, first by rumor and afterward by positive fact, that the in-stallation ceremonies at the cathedral must be abandoned, as Bishop O'Calla-ha- n refused to receive the Parnellite mayor. This information was greeted with many signs of extreme imligna-- ; tion by the Parnellites, who are now convinced that the buttle with the priesthood is only in its early stages, nd that a long and desperato struggle for supremacy between themselves and .' the priests may be looked forward to throughout Ireland if Parnell remains f ' at the head of a faction of the Irish f party. . . " v ' Dublin, Jan. 2 --Lord Mayor Noave ' was Installed yesterday amid a scene of considerable excitement. Sexton and Healy were roundly hissed by the crowds present,, and the mention of Parnell's name was cheered to the echo. A I and Court, l'rnbinly. Drnvr Hopublli an. We are glad to be able to sav that there is a good prospect that u court will soon be established for the ad judi-cation of land grant claims in Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming. I'tah ami Ne-vada. A bill for this purpose has al-ready passed the house. This court when once established will undoubtedly load to the settlement of a great number of land grant claims which now cloud the title to a vast quantity of land in tho territory which will be under the jurisdiction of tho court. This is particularly true of New Mexico, which has labored for years under the incubus of unsettled Spanish and Mexican grants. Very probably a great deal of the land claimed in New Mexico under these grants will be thrown open to sett.e-luen- t under the I'nited States land laws, for many of the claims are worth-less. Investigation will show that the worthless grants were eit her never made, or that they will fall through a defect in the description of thu land sought to be conveyed. Uut even in the case of worthless grants, as long as the question of validity is an open one, the injury to tho country is just as great as in the case of valid grants. When the land grant questions shall have been settled, the people desiring to acquire property in New Mexico will know whether they can take up a par-ticular tract under the I'nited States laws or whether they would have to purchase it from private owners. They will, doubtless, have to pay more for land owned by private persons tnan for land belonging to the government. Hut it is not likely that they will have to pay so high a price that the cost of the land will operate as an obstacle to tho settlement of the territory. It is a great deal better to pay a little more ami know that one gets a good title than never to be certain as to whether one has any title at alt. Ha waa at OnCo Reappointed. Hhooklvn, Jan. 2.

General Schp-liel- d this morning received a telegram from ( ieii. Miles dated Tine Hidgo agency January 1st, saying that .'1000 Indians including about ioi) bucks were now encamped in tho Had Lauds about fifteen miles from Tine It'ulgo ugoucy, all avenues of escape being closed by troops. (Jen. Miles says the Indians have gathered some cattle and provis-ions and appear to be determined to make their light for the supremacy of tip point. He says he will niako another effort to get them back to the agency without bloodshed and in order lo do so ho has established a regular siege. (ieneral Scholicld said there was no truth in tho report that General Hrooke had been relieved from the command at I'ine Kidge. General Miles, he added, has charge of tho campaign and has stationed himself at tho most con-venient point for genciai communica-tion with his forces. Secretary Proctor had an interview with the president on the Indian cam-paign this morning. The Sotdlere l.tid at Rett. Omaha, Jan. 2. A special from Tine Kidge says: Amid a wild and bitter ( storm yesterday the bodies of the thirty brave boys who fell at Wounded Knee were laid away to their last rest. The cortege, headed by Colonel Forsythe and Major Whiteside, was composed of . thirteen wagons, bearing the rudely- - collined dead, followed by an escort of Companies A, K, B, I, I) and E of the t Seventh cavalry, together with an as- - k sisting squad from the Second cavalry. It wound away Irom ciirnv up to the . S, '' little cemetery situated at , tho crest of " . "-- the hill northwest of the agency. The surviving memliera of the fated Com-- jJ pany K looked lonesome euough with is"1 their fearfully thinned ranks. The va- - ' Ntf' cancy, so striking in contrast to tho rest of the column, caused tears to start iu tho eyes of many a comrade. After the reading of the burial per-- , vice by Hev. Mr. Cook, the Episcopal clergyman here, the bodies were low-ered into the graves. Owin.T to the in-tensely critical condition of the with the enemy Hocking about the agency threatening an at-tack, the usual salute of gnus was omit-ted, while tho soft notes fram the bugle and the wail of the storm whispered a Inst good by. The remains of Captain Wallace will be sent to Fort Ililey. The body of Captain Mills, who died from rheumatism of the heart, has been sent to Omaha. To Annihilate the Hofttilri, Omaha, Jan. 2. A special from Kushville, Neb., says: It is definitely known that hostiles to about the num-ber of 1I(!0 are fortified near the mouth of White Clay creek and that (ieneral Hrooke with a detachment of troops is swinging nrount to the north of them. Gen. ( 'arr is supposed to be approaching from the west and (ieneral Miles will make a dash from the south. The force' thus engnged is thought to he. ample for the annihilation of the entire band unless some un-foreseen complication or misfortune arises. Embassadors from this hostile camp have again today been suing for peace and offering to surrender their arms. It is not known here whether the terms will be granted or not, but the general opinion prevails that iu view of the recent action of the rebels in slaughtering t(;e traops while under a Hag of truce., not much weight will be given to the pretended repent-ance. That the hostiles have been largely reinforced within tho past few days there is no longer any doubt. Dillon Will Mot Go Hark. Boston, Jan. 8. Special to The Times. John TJillon, the Irish nation-alist, will not return to Ireland even if the tight should be settled, as he has no intention of permitting Balfour to throw him into prison, nor will he resume his tour through the couutry. but he will go to Colorado where he will spend the win-ter with his brother. J . FARWELL WASN'T IN IT. Tho Illlnole Senator Knew Nothing; of the Silver Pool. Chicago, Jan. 2. The recently pub-lished story regarding an alleged silver pool mentioned the name of Senator Farwell iu connection with it. In an interview today, Senator Farwell said he never bought a dollar's worth of sil-ver previous to the silver legislation of last summer, While he was told that others were endeavoring to make some-thing out of the anticipated fluctuation in price, ho steered clear of it. He knew, of course, that the price would go up and when some friends in Lon-don called for his views he answered to the best of his knowledge. He received no profit, directly or indirectly, through the speculations of his friends. Re-garding the silver pool, he said that he had been informed that a pool did exist, but this did not come to him un-til long after the silver legislation. There was no hint expressed concern-ing a pool while the matter Wn before congress. The senator denied flatly that he was in anyway concerned in the bank failures, or thai he speculated in silver.

Free Pwi , A lady who is well known and highly respected in the city repaired to one of tho stories on Victoria Crescent this morning, with whip in hand, and threatened to give tho proprietor a severe horsewhiping.

She charged him with being accessory to lilting oiir jails with crime and averred that were he (the proprie-tor! a man she would carry her threat into execution. 'The proprietor, in de-fense, claimed if ho refused to serve the boy other stores would serve him. The anxious mother threatens to lay the matter before the council anil will endeavor to get some means introduced that will put a stop to this disasterous practice.

The coal supplied by the Union Pa-cific company this year contains a much larger percentage of waste rock than usual. In somo cases this per centage amounts to 20 per cent. There is not a consumer in town but complains of be-ing compelled to thoroughly empty the bowl of his stOve at least every other day to get rid of the rooks that ac-cumulate in them. This, with the short weight which seems inevitable, and which reaches 10 per cent, makes it very expensive for consumers and unprofitable for dealers. The legislators are doubtless very anxious to serve their constituents. Le't them place upon the statnte books a law securing to dealers and consumers an "honest ton of coal for an honest price," and they will earn the gratitude of fully one half the people of Idaho.
