Akron, 0., Jan. 10. As Herman
Singletary, a Talmadge farmer, was
driving to this city this morniug he
was approached by a man on horse

fired two shots and then fled. One

resolution appropriating $250,000
to be expended under direction of
the war department to relieve the
Missouri river of snags and obstruc

mouth. He asked immediate con
sideration as there is urgent need of
the money. Senator Vest stated
that a number of Kansas City mer

but insurance companies refused to
insure either boats or cargoes on
account of the bad condition of the
river. Without river competition

mission, reciting the need of the
appropriation.
Senator Ingalls moved to amend
the resolution by providing that the
improvements commence at St. Joe,
as the upper part of the river need
ed improvement, too.
Vest agreed to this proposition,
which was adopted by the senate,

Lilly of the circuit iu which th
mountain feud exist, is ia Frankfort
to answer the criticism made upon
him by Gov. Buckner. He was ask
ed what reaiedv he could suirffeat
for the lawlessness, aud said:
"Send an aimed force to Perry
county and keep them there. It does
no good to send troops there for two
or three weeks and then withdraw
them. They should be kept there.
It "will cost money, but the state will
have to spend money to break up
this thing. The feud in Perry coun- -ty
is a difficult one to meet. Nearly
every one of the murders have beci
committed from ambush. There has
been almost no open iightiug. Only
the continued presence ef troop
can bring about the arrest and con
viction of the parties. Besides, wj
district and Judge Boyd's are too
arge aud another district should
be cut out of them."

The Bowan county feud was worse
than the Perry county fend has yet

young man of 28 years, came dowxr
to Frankfort and appealed to Got -Knott,
for assistance aarritb

who told him that the state had
