Washington, Peb. 9 (Special.) ThPro was an Important conference jesterday concerning the bills on hand relating to additional courts In the Indian country. The senate conferrees on what Is known as the Teller bill are Vilas, Piatt and Teller. They met Chan-mart Culberson and mem bers of the house JudlcHK"y committee for the purpose of agreelngftupon a line of action. Senators Piatt and Teller were emphatic In their demands for tho passago of the Morgan bill. They declared It was an out rage to hae It so amended that It would allow the people of the Indian country to be Imposed upon for a year and a lulf longer by the Pails and Port Smith courts. They Bald that It was a ridiculous claim for tho Texas and Arkansas contingent III the house and senate to make that the people of the Indian country were unable to proUdc for thcmsehen courts nnd Ju rors, Mr. Culberson annuunced that It had been decided by those on Ills side of the contention that they would agree to pass tho Morgan bill proilded it would not dis turb the Paris nnd Port Smith courts until July, 1S'! He would faor the c-onfern-es on the Teller bill whlih passed congress t-ome weeks ago, taking up tho Morgan bill nnd substituting that lor tho Teller bill This would bo lepotled by the confeireis and adopted by the senate and house with out dllllculty. Senator Piatt has had something to do with the Tevus stjle of legislation before, to he concluded th.it If tint suggestion wau In good faith It would bo well for the coufenees to take this action before thu senate considered the Indian bill. If they were In earnest in the nutter the c-imfor-rees could got togetlur nnd mako their re port and It could he adpoted before the Indian bill was reached In tho senate, In the event they failed to reach a report It would be well not to allow the chance to slip nwny, hut simply attnch It to the In dian bill according to the previous under standing. Tho Morgan bill was recommended fa or.ibly by tho Indian affairs committee jesleidn. It Is now within the rtneh of conferrees of tho senate when the Indian bill Is being considered. It Is dscoered that a number of changes hno been nude In the bill. Por Instance, In tho Northern district, courts aio to be held nt Vlnlti, f'laremore, Tahlenmh nnd Muscogee, leav ing out both Miami and Wandotte. This Is the result of the light between tho two towns. Haeh nlined to get a court and dis place the other. Hx-Delegato Harvey, of Oklahoma, Is Insisting upon Wyandotte be. Ing added to the bill and will carry on this tight either before confenees or In tho sen ate, Por the Central district, courts are to be held at South MeAlester, Atokn. Antlers, nnd Cameron, while In the Southoin ills, trlet rourts me named for Ardmore, Pur cell, Paul's Valley, Hyan nnd Chlensha. Some of those Interested nre fearful of tho now scheme They believe that the Mor gan bill will bo substituted by the con furees and thnt It will pass, but they nlo fear that It Is a nut up Job to get the president to veto It, The president has n. ways shown dense Ignorance about the Indlin country nnd refuses to be Informed or to Inform himself about It. This being his deplorable Intellectual condition rela tive to all matters lu that part of the coun try, or In fact any place or an thing out sldo of Js'ewr York politics, It Is suspected by some that certain Influences against the new bill, notably the TVviis gang, will sue. ceed In arranging a veto for the bill, In this wny the Texas crowd could defeat nil legislation and continue to loot the coun try according lo the programme alrendv being carried out nnd which commenced with tho beginning of this administration. w.owN to pirn's ijv iiiNi'ovni:ii.

News vvni lirotiplit to tho city lust nlslit from the bnyou, fourteen miles southwest of town, of what looks to bo un atrocious murder nnd uison. Tho vIctlniH tire M. M. Tucker, his wife nml threo chlldreti. Thu children wero two girls aged S anil 12 nml u boy uged 0 or 7 years, lespectlvcly. Tho crime won committed Wednesday night, but was not discovered until jesterday morning. Prom Information nt band, It appears thnt the entire family vvns murdered, nnil then, to cover up the crime, tho liouo nnil dead bodies burned. On arriving at tho scone the ruins were tho only thine to mark the place whero the liouso hnd stood nnd live charred bkeletons to tell tho f.ito of the family Inhabiting It. Investlgutlon prompted by suspicion of murder con firmed that theory, for In the ruins were found the bones of Mr. nnd Mrs. Tucker near the fireplace; thoe of one of the children, presum ibly the boy, lu the fireplace, ami the other two wlicie the bed on which they .slept had stood. There were not enough of tho remnliis to show by what method they hnd m-t their fates, but the people heio nre cer tain they wero mtuderetl, ns It Is out of the question for them to have nil been btirnocl while asleep. Tho position of the skeletons would dissipate nnv Mich possible theory. The house was In :i secluded spot and was newly built of green logs, nnil about a half mile from nny other, and as Thursday was n bit ter cold tlity, no one thought It slraugo tlmt none of tho family was seen on that day. Suspicion nt onro pointed to Fred 'Wil son, a son-in-law of Tucket's, ns the murck'ier. It was known that he hnd on various occasions made fluents npralnst old man Tucker, the cnuo being that a fi?vv months slnco Tucker caused his ur lest on a charge of seduction, his nll Ugeil victim being ono of the now de-ad git Is, ngeel 1J ye. -us. On tho ttktl be.fot Judge Gibbons WlKou was dlsch.ugod, ns the government failed to make out Its e.is-e. On the teimliintlou uf the trial Mr. Tucker told Judge Cilbbons thut he lent eel Wlbon would kill him. Acting upon the suspicion based upon thcio thte.its, the cltii-ens of tho neigh borhood nt once took him In clintge pending the in rival of olllcre-i em the-bri-ne. Tho accused. It Is said, main tained u stolid ludllfoienco ns to tint grave cli.ugi' ng.ilust him Olllceis Stewuit und I.e.ithoiman have been sent out und will piobably letuin to night, when full paniculate will be ob tainable.

A GRUESOME SIGHT. Seven llc.nl and Iljlng Vi n T ihheil to tlm Ii) lllgglllg of a Mdp. New York. Peb. V The life sivlng crew fiom the Town Hill station on the Clreat South bench, opposite Hi.stport, I,. I, were out at davbiealc to-day nnd down on the beach, hi the teeth of the storm, to make one moro attempt to reach the men lashed nnd frozen In the rigging of tho unknown wrecked steamer. When the life saveis left at dnvbicak seven men who still hanging In the riggings. As tho ley winds did not abate, and as tho waves were washing over tho Ice-Iucki-d wreck, the lire savers felt thut thu men. must purely be di'. nl. Captain linker lled his r.las upon the lce-diape-4 ilgglng of the wu-ek. Thu sev en tonus still hung time, not one having fallen dm Ing the- night, Put three of the men were bunging head down. Hvldently they Ind lashed their h-gs when tlu'l went up In the rlgglrg to ese-.ipo the fiuy of the click. During the night the had died, nnd the llngeis lelivlng. tho bodies had fiilKn, hanging by the knees. Tln lite snveis tried to 1 lunch the lite boat, but tho shore leu made that effott vain The life line wits then tired in tu the- rlgglmr There it hung, with a certainty nf life to who would leach It, and Ji was within a few ftct of the five upilkht figures Soon the life mv-is saw ono of the men stirring. He painfully and, slowly dlsen gaged himself fiom tli lashlnjs and stint ed towaid the line, lie, took a few st.ps downwaid, paused, hesltiitid, almost fell, climbed buck to the Mini suppoit ho h ul left. In a f,-w moments iinuther man be began to work himself loose, succeeded and iel out in u sluw wuv that was painful to see. Ho got a little farther down thuu the Hist man, und then he, too, Mopped He almost lost Ids bilancv, tegutued his hold, iciuounted and wrapped himself lu the coids ol Him ilgglug lit the plaeu hu had lert. The life saver? were In despair. It was clear that the mm In thu ik'glug vvliw loo weak, too Milt, too ueuilv fiozeu tu do nothing more than fasti n a Hue If It fell ucross their bodies, so thu cannon was tiled again and again.
