A Murderer Caught.
Denver, Sept. 15.—A Tribun? speci,.l
from Fort Collins saye : Sheriff Sweeny,
of this county, captured a noied CJhey-
enue murderer, Henry Mosier. The
sheriff has been on his track for the p-ist
two days, and succeeded iu c-.p: uring
his man at Louisville, in Jefterson county,
and brought him to Fort Collin-, where
he is now in j.dl. The murderer is a
man forty years old, weight 175 i>ouuds,
with ehin whisker.-, mustache, wore a
black stovepipe ha ; dark wooleu sh'rt
and pants, dark blue overalls. He was
accompanied by a black dog. His real
name is Ilenrv Mosier, ft is sai l Mosier
was well known in Longmont. A re-
ward of | 00 is offeivd by Governor
Hale, $100 by the sheriil", and #100
by Thomas Swan, <f Cheyenne.
Sheriff Sweeny w s out all last
night following a clue which was a
strong one. Mosier left Cheyenne bj-
the Dvnver Pacific road, leaving it tome
distance from Greely, and sti uck up the
Poudie valley. When on the other side
of this city, he met John Lyons, a
farmer, and u em out to IJpart, where
he staid over night with a farmer named
B:itt3". From there he went south along
the ba»e of the mountains, closely pur-
sued by the vigilant sheriff. Win n cap-
tured the prisoner had a pi-tol, the one
he killed the two men with near Fort
Iiusse'l. and lie was accompanied by his
doer* He made no resistance when ar-
rested, and remarked that ht had to
die but once, and he'd give it out cold
that he would not live iive minutes after
reaching Cheyenne. Sheriff Sweeny
will turn his prisoner over as soon as he
eceivas his reward. Mosier will be
lynched as soon as he arrives in Chey-
enne, as the greatest indignation is man-
ifested and the people will turn out in
force to lynch him.

Denveis. Sept. 15.—Some time last
night a burglar entered M. J. Wade's
residence and robbed it of over two
thousand dollars worth of diamonds and
other jewelry belonging to Mr. and Mrs.
B imgoer, the father and mother of Mrs.
Wade. The missing articles are a
diamonl breast pin, valued at $600; a
pair of eTr riigs, $L.00; a gold watch
and cl.«iu, $250; a diamond ling; sev-
eral thousand dollars worth of loose
diamonds. The detectives si\j very
reticent, and so far as can be learned,
have noeiue to the burglars.
This morning John Guir, an employe
of the Denver aud R!o Grande railroad,
while coupling cars, was badly crushed
between the bumpers. lie will probably
recover.
Jail Delivery.
Dexver, Sept. 15.—A Tribune spccial
from Lake City says : The quiet of this
place was slightly disturbed by a jail
break last Thursday night, resulting in
the freedom of Wilson Waldron, indicted
for the murder of E. P. Plummer. Wal-
dron was confined in the jail of this
county with Martin and Coffin, all under
indictment for murder. The jail coutaius
one room only, and its entrance is from
the county building. The jailer sleeps
in the county building. On Thurs-
day night at 11 o'clock Waldron called
him from the jail to procure for
him some remedy for the colic, which
he claimed to be suffering intensely
from. The - jailer complied with the
request and opened the door, of the jail
to hand him some Jamaica ginger.
Without the slightest warning Waldron
dealt htm a terrible blow on the forehead
over the left eye, knocking him down.
Waldron wrenched open the back door
and took farewell of the quarters. Mart-
in and Coffin were aroused by the affray
and jumped out of bed, to find the doors
connecting them with the woiltfall open.
The guard was insensible, and Waldron
missing. They earned the jailor into the
jail, where he soon came to and spread
the news. The night was >ery dark.
The whole town joined in the search.
As yet nothing has been discovered. In-
deed, there are but slight hopes cap-
turing him. He is a thorough woods-
man, and knows the entire country bet-
ter than anybody here.
Washington, Sept. 15. —The Corean
embassy arrived from Chicago this
morning. They were met at the station
by Mr. Joeepb Davis, first assistant secre-
tary of state, and Mason and Ensigu
Faulk, of the navy. The latter two,
who were designated by the President to
extend civilities, were in full dress
naval uniform. The ambassadors were
at once driven to AcArRi^to&Mtel,
where quarters were provided for

The Fever at i'euueota.
Washington. Sept. 15.—The follow-
ing telegram from the commander at
Peusacola : I isMied on the 13tli instant
to the destitute about 1,850 rations,
which I considered was all I could do
under the orders of the department.
I am reliably informed that a deposit of
84,(.00 is now in the bank in Peusacola,
subject to check. The commander last
ui^ht no.ified the treasurer thereof. 1
thought I had done all I could at present
under my orders. No new case, and no
death among the naval forces.
Ihe Arctic Expluratiou.
Washington, S^pt. 15.—Coinm >dore
English, acting secretary of the navy,
received the following dispatch :
St. Johns, N. F., Sept. 15.
Co mm dure Engiii-li, Acliu ; Secretary of the
Navy :
To charter another foreign ship with a
foreign crew for this duty, to go north
at this state of the season, would simply
invoke fresh disaster. She was handled
very uuskillfully and the crew behaved
shamefully at the wreck. The ship must
be Aineric in manned and offi-
cered by the navy, aud thoroughly
equipped. Unless winter quarters cau
be reached north of Cape Atlioy, the
attempt would lead to her loss. This
cannot be done. Melville bay will be
impassable by October firet. The ship
cannot winter lit Uppernavik. and can-
uotgo nor:h frum thm.
Signed, Wiluhh,
Commanding U. S. Yautie.
The following dispatch from Lieuten-
ant Garlingtou wag received at the signal
office to-day.:
Sr. Johns, N. F., Sept. 15.—To chief
signal officer:
The stores were not left at Littleton
Island, because it was not in my pro-
gramme to do so. It was the intention to
establish a depot at or near Cape Pres-
cott, and to the westward, as recom-
meuded by Lieutenant Greeley,and to fill
gaps caused by the Neptune's failure to
get above Cspe Cabinsee. Five hundred
and fifty-five rations were left at Upper-
navik by the Yantic for my party. A
part of them were at a point
forty miles north of Tissadik. All have
since returneJ to the Yantic. The ulti-
mate result of my undertaking to go
north at this time is extremely problem-
atical. The chances are against its suc-
cess, owing to the darkness now begin-
ning in these regions, making naviga-
tion extremely critical. There is no safe
Winter anchorage on the west shore of
Greenland, between Disco and Pandora
harbor, except, perhaps* North
Star bay. The winter quarters
of the sound, however, give a
chance of success, and if n y recommen-
dation is approved, I am ready and anx-
ious to make the effort. My plan is to
buy a suuable sailer, take a crew from
volunteers from the crews of the Yantic
and Powhattan, now in this harbor, pay-
iug them extra, Lieutenant Colwell to
command the ship, two ensigns and one
engineers to be taken from those who
may volnoteer from these ships,
also employ a competent ice pilot here;
the ► hip to be under United States laws,
subject to military discipline. I believe
nothing can be done with foreign crews
and officers. In the event of not enough
men volunteering, the rem .ind^r to be
enlisted here. Commander Wilder will
communicate with the navy department.
If anything is to be done, must be done
at once.
