The ldaho Bannocks Now Take Their
Turn on the Warpath.

ALL QUIET AT PINE RIDGE.

The Ellilitary Now Exercising a General
Supervision Over Everything, and
the Situation Looks Favorable
for a Peaceful Settlement.

POCATELLO, Idaho, Jan. 9.——-The Indians
on the Fort Hall reserve are on the war.
path and have taken possession of this
town. They have already set fire to 'a
number of buildings, and have announced
their determination to complete the de-
struction of the place.

BOISE CITY, Idaho, Jan. 8.-—-Advices re-
ceived from Pocatello, Idaho, state that
the Indians on the Fort Hall reserve have
been dancing, and 200 in war paint have
taken to the mountains with arms, caus-
ing great excitement. Governor \Viley
has been asked to order the militia to
Pocatello, and probably a company of
United States cavalry at Boise barracks
will be sent there. .

The Indians on the reserve number 1,200
or 1,500, more than half of whom are Ban-
nooks, who caused the prolonged war
twelve years ago. The people of Pocatello
have almost no arms, and the towns of
Blackfoot and Eagle Rock are on the
border of the reserve. The Indians who
took to the mountains are working east—
ward toward Wyoming. The belief is ex-
pressed that if the Indians at Pocatello go
on the warpath they will be joined by the
tribes on Lemhi reservation, who number
500, embracing 125 able bodied bucks.

An Attack of the Craze.
WATERLOO, 121., Jan. 9.—It is reported.
here that the Musquake Indians, located
in the southern part of Taman county, '
have an attack of the Messiah craze, and

 

there is apt to be an outbreak at any time. i

There are about 300 of them. The Govern— ;
ment Greys, the Muscatine Rifles and two I
companies I. N. G. have been ordered in
readiness, and it is expected that the com-
pany here will receive orders very soon.

“We Are All Hostiles Now."

SPRINGVIEW, Neb., J an. 9.——Chief Yellow
Horse, formerly lieutenant of the Indian
police at Rosebud agency, passed through
this town with considerable following.
When asked if he was not afraid to meet
the warring element of his tribe he replied:

“No; we are all hostiles now.”

Yellow Horse was supposed to be friendly.
Swift Bear and his band, formerly of the
same agency, also declared for war. Both
chiefs are supposed to be bearing for the
hostile camp near Pine Ridge.

Peaceful at Pine Ridge.

PINE RIDGE, S. D., Jan. 9.—-A much
needed change has taken place in
the management of affairs at this
agency. In accordance with the instruc-
tions received from President Harrison, to
have the control of the Indian campaign
trnsferred to the jurisdiction of. the war
department, Capt. EWers, of the Fifth in—
fantry, has taken hold, and from now on
will exercise a general supervision over
everything. Royer will retain his position

 

as civil agent, but will really have nothing
whatever to do with the management of
the agency, the position which he will oc-
cupy being merely a clerical due. The
change gives satisfaction to every one, and
restores confidence among the residents
here. ,

The situation looks more favorable for
apeaceful settlement. Runners from the
hostile camps and prominent chiefs from
the Ogallalas, who, with their people, have
been forced to remain at that place, have
been into the agency and have held a con-
ference with Gen. Miles. They all declare
that it never had been the intention of the
Pine Ridge Sioux to take up arms against
the whites, and that such a "step was the
last thing contemplated by them.

Miles \Vill Make Short Work of It.

Numerous small hands kept slipping
away from the hostile camp and reporting
at the agency, and soon there will be none
left at that camp but the Brules, the In-
dians who first precipitated the trouble.
Red Cloud and his band will in all proba—
bility arrive at the agency Friday. Little
\Vound, one of the best and most power-
ful of the Pine Ridge Sioux, will also
come in.

Later reports are to the effect- that all : , , ,
; was brutally assaulted while drivmg on

the Sioux will come in, Brules and all.
Gen. Miles expects to close the campaign
within the next few days.

The court of inquiry which was to have
been convened Wednesday in the case of
Col. Forsythc, of the Seventh regiment,
did not meet, and it is not thought it will
for some time to come. '

 

 

Didn’t Propose to Get Left.

BUFFALO, N.Y., Jan. 9.—'Mr. A. J .Wright,
of the firm of A. P. Wright & Co., was
asked Thursday morning what he had to
say to the charge of the assignee of Bate-
man & Co., to the effect that his firm ob-
tained certain stocks in anirregular man-
ner. Mr. Wright replied that the statement
published is full of inaccuracies. “\Ve

longed to us. latemau 8.: Co. on Monday
of this week owed us $54,000. We asked

We acted in a perfectly legal manner, fol-
lowing thc best advice obtainable. We
were trying to protect ourselves. Because
we succeeded the other creditors are kick-
ing. In a day or two we expect the whole
matter will be settled, when we shall give
a statement of the whole case."

SENATOR M’PHERSON’S ILLNESS.

It Has Consider-ably Agitated the Demo-
crats of New Jersey.

TRENTON, N. J ., Jan. 9.—The reports
from Washington of the serious illness of
Senator John R. McPherson have alarmed
t h e Democratic
politicians of the
state and h a v e
called forth ex—
pressions of sym-
pathy from men»
of all parties.
Senator McPher-
son is a recognized
power in New Jer- ,9

J. R. M'PHERSON.

Democrat and absolutely the head of the
Democracy here, he has always been ex-
ceedingly fair and courteous, and has kept
asharp lookout for the interests of his

state in congress. He is the only senator
who has twice been re-clected from New
Jersey, and one of the very few men from
any state who has served three consecu-
tive terms in the United States senate.
The senator has made his mark on the
floor of the senate, and shown a wide and
comprehensive grasp of all the questions
under discussion. Since the days of Fre-
linghuysen he is the only senator from
New Jersey who has taken an active and
frequent part in the debates on the floor.
Although, as the recent debate showed, the
senator agrees with his party on the tarifi
question, he was always ready to ask for
protection for any Jersey industry that
needed it. His efforts on behalf of the pot-
ters, pearl button manufacturers and
glassblowers of the state will never be
forgotten. The senator has as many friends
among Republicans as among Democrats.

 

THE ‘VORLD'S FAIR.

Women Euvoys to Be Sent to South and '

Central America.

CHICAGO, Jan. 9.—At a reception given
last evening by the women managers of
the VVorld’s fair to the army and navy ol-
ficers detailed to the various South and
Central American countries in the interest
of the exposition, the subject of sending
women envoys to those countries was dis-
cussed. Mrs. Palmer, president of the
board of lady managers, said that in a
conference with Secretary Blaine she had
been informed that the board would be
allowed three representatives.

It was agreed that as the South Ameri-
can countries are mostly, if not entirely,
Catholic, it would be advisable to send
Catholic ladies there, in order that they
might be better able to work in harmony
with the church institutions. Secretary
Cousins announced that a letter had been
received from the state department in-
dorsing Miss Clara de Mehun and Miss
Virginia Dodge as two of the three women
representatives to go to South America.

Each of the ten architects selected to
make plans for the VVorld’s fair buildings
has accepted, and will be in Chicago on
Saturday. A separate building will be
planned by each one of them after the gen-
eral scheme has been agreed upon. Con-
sulting Architect Root will make any

changes in the ten plans necessary to har- I

monize the collection.

TEXAS SVJEPT BY A TORNADO.

 

Death and Destruction: lilark the Path of
the Fierce Tciupest.

SHERMAN, Tex., Jan. 9. — A tornado
passed about three miles east of this town
about 3 o’clock W'ednesduy afternoon. It
was 100 yards in breadth, and demolished
everything it struck. Several houses were
blown down, and an infant was killed, and
four adults severely, if not mortally,
wounded.

John Schmidt was blown over a barbed-

wire fence. He seized the wire as he
passed, and his hand was almost torn off.
Household goods are scattered about for
miles, and the loss is great. Further
search may reveal many more dead bodies,

but night coming on put an end to the;

quest of the rescuers.

Yoakum and other points report a hur-
ricane and a high wind raged all night.

A Yoakum dispatch says: About to’clock
\Vednesday afternoon a tornado passed
about two miles west of here, destroying
three houses, uprooting trees and carrying
away haystacks.

ASSAULTED WITH AN IRON BAR.
A Wealthy Horseman Attacked in His
\Vngon by a Stranger.

MORRISTOWN, N. J., Jan. 9.-—Charles
Eisensmith, a wealthy man of this city,

the outskirts of this town last evening.
He was returning to his home in Jockey
Hollow, and on Western avenue was
stopped by a stranger wearing a slouch
hat, who asked for a ride. The request
was granted. The man had no sooner got
into the wagon before he caught Eisen-
smith by the throat and struck him sev-
eral times with a thick bar of iron.
Eisensmith did not at once lose consci-

ousness, and a desperate struggle ensued, .

during which the men fell from the wagon
into the road. A vehicle approaching
scared the highwayman, and he left his
victim and took to the woods. His identi-
ty is unknown. Eisensmith, who is well
known throughout the state for his love
of blooded horses, is at present in a crit-
ical condition.

THE ALLIANCE 'WORSTED.

l

the Supreme Court Issues a Mandamus
Compelling the Speaker to Canvass
the Returns, Which is a Point in
Favor of Governor-elect Boyd.

 

3n the Nebraska legislature Wednesday
j afternoon were of a most extraordinary
lcharacter. At 3 o’clock the senate and
' house assembled in joint session for the
purpose of canvassing the vote on state
officers as prescribed by the constitution.
Trouble was precipitated at the outset by
a misunderstanding as to which officer
should preside over the joint convention.
Lieutenant Governor Micklejohu advanced
to the chair to preside, claiming his right
under the constitution, the statutes, and
the uniform practice of the state. Speaker
Elder, of the house, refused to vacate, and

side, claiming the gavel.

The speaker attempted to call the body
to order, but was himself called to order
by the lieutenant governor. The hall was
crowded and the excitement was intense,
but no demonstration was made beyond

to change the plan of proceeding to the
canvass.
out of order. The official returns were
brought in by the secretary of state and
: laid before the body.

I A Deadlock.

The speaker was directed by the lieuten-
ant governor to open the package and read
the returns. He began the work, but was
advised by the attorney for the indepen-
dent party not to do so. He then refused
to go on with the work. The lieutenant
governor ruled that no business could be
transacted until the returns were. can—
vassed, and this brought on a deadlock.
The joint convention sat for nearly four
hours, the time being taken up by orator-
ical fencing and labored argument from
each side to prove that the other side was

 

taken until Thursday morning.

The point involved is this: The inde-
pendent or Alliance party is contesting
the election of the Democratic governor
and the remaining state officers, who are
Republicans. They wish to prevent the
announcement of the election of these
oflicers, evidently preferring to seat the
contestants directly. Lieutenant Govern-
or Meikeljohn, who is a Republican, holds
that it is his duty to declare the officers.
havingamajority on the face of the re-
turns elected,and if there is to be a contest
it must be begun in the regular way after
this announcement of election is made.
That was the point of contention in the
struggle.

An Appeal to the Courts.

l Thursday morning all the doors of the
representative hall were closely guarded,
and none but members of the legislature,
state officers and persons having business
inside were admin Au: All members were
on hand promptly, although they found
great difficulty in pushing their way
through the crowds that filled the corri-
dors and besieged the Capitol at all points.
The Alliance members had taken posses-
sion of the house at 5 o’clock in the morn-
ing. They placed the speaker in the chair,
5 and put a cordon of assistant sergeants-at
germs around him. Lieutenant Governor
Meikeljohn got in through the cloak room,
and was served with an order of ejectment,
but he defied the officer and was taken
into custody.

Both sides had aforce of sergeants-at-
arms within call, and any attempt on
either side to proceed with the canvass
‘ would have precipitated a row. To avoid
this a committee from each party was
sent with a statement of the case to the
supreme court, asking that body for a
decision as to which officer has the consti-
tutional right to preside. The supreme
court issued a writ of mandamus compel-
ling the speaker to canvass the returns.
This is a point in favor of Governor-elect
Boyd. ,

Fifty sergeants-at-arms have been ap-
pointed and thousands of people besiege
the doors of the representative hall. Mr.
Boyd’s inauguration today is very doubt-
ful. Governor Thayer has called out the
militia to suppress the disturbance at the
.- Lincoln state house.

BRIEF MENTION.

The latest returns of the vote of the
Methodist Episcopal church as to the pro-
priety of admitting women delegates to
the general conference show a majority of
79,254 in favor of the women.
The trial of Rev. Howard MacQueary, of
Canton, 0., for heresy began before the
ecclesiastical court of the Episcopal dio-
cese of Ohio, in the chapel of Trinity
cathedral, at Cleveland. Mr. MacQueary
pleaded not guilty, and his counsel placed
parts of the New Testament in evidence as
a defense. The heresy consists of certain
statements in Mr. MacQueary’s book on
“The Evolution of Man and Christianity,”
in which the virgin birth of the Saviour is
doubted, as is his resurrection from the
dead.

i'l'he Window Glass Trust Goes to Pieces.
l Another Combine Formed.
PITTSBURG, Pa, Jan. 9.—-The American
“ Window Glass company, of Chicago, which
was chartered in Illinois some months ago
._ with a capital stock of $400,000, and was
designed to act as a cover for a huge win-
.dow glass trust, now exists in name only.
It leaked out yesterday that at the meet-
ing of the executive committee of the con-
cern, held in this city last Tuesday, action
was taken which practically dissolves the
company. At the committee meeting it
was decided to notify all the subscribers
. that their subscriptions to the stock would
not be considered binding if they desired
to withdraw. A well posted member said
that the trouble was caused by the non‘
payment of subscriptions.

It was learned on good authority yester-
day that nineteen of the leading glass ta~
bleware manufacturers of Ohio, Pennsyl-

'vania {and West Virginia have formed a
combine, the object being to avoid waste
of money during dull seasons.

CAROLINE ISLANDEBS BEVOLT.

More Massacres Expected.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 9,—The recently ap-
pointed American consnl to the Caroline
islands, Mr. Herbert L. Band, of Carthage,
Ills... is here on his way to the scene of his
'dutius. He has just received letters from
his brother, who has been a missionary on
tin: islands for eighteen years, giving an
account of outrages committed by natives.

In their revolt against the Spaniards the

' natives have killed 300 foreigners, includ-
ing 190 Spanish soldiers. They have looted
and burned the houses of all the mission-
aries at Ponopi. Rev. Mr. Rand lost his
library, worth $1,000, and all his personal

Cattle That Will Sell.

A firm of cattlebrokers that have been
in the business twenty-six years in a
large city report one certain week last
October to have been about the dullest
they have ever known. The cause of
the dullness was partly that there were
brought to the city in that week 88,000
head of beeves to be disposed of. But

the prime cause was that the cattle sent ‘ in

in were not fit to sell. They were not
fat enough. The dealers recommended
their customers near home to keep their
beeves a couple of months longer and
feed them heavily, so that when the far
western cattle had all come in and been
disposed of the home beeves could be
brought in and their owners “get some-
thing for them.” .

The kind of. cattle that are a drug in the
market, that pull the price of all down,
that are always with us and yet that
nobody wants, are described thus:

“The hardest to sell are and the great-
est decline is on steers of eleven hundred
to fourteen hundred pounds average,
half to three-quarters fat—what a good
many shippers call fat before shippino'.
There has been just one load of prime
cattle on the market this week out of
88,000 cattle, and they brought 5.} cents.”

Cattle raisers will learn from the above
what kind of cattle not to ship.

 

 

Points of Interest.
Corn is good for poultry, but see that
you do not feed them on corn alone. It
is like stuffing man on corn bread alone.

Don’t feed your sheep on the ground.
They will waste as much nearly as their
necks are worth.

An old saying rum thus: “The foot of
the sheep is golden.”

The average weight of fleeces has
doubled in the United-States in the past
thirty years. ’

The highest average weight of fleeces
is seven pounds, and Texas sheep have
the heaviest fleeces of all. Then come
next in order California, Ohio, New
Mexico, Oregon, Michigan, Utah and
Montana.

Elenhouses may be warmed perfectly
with hot water pipes. The pipes are 1;.
inches in diameter. The fixtures neces-
sary may be bought of dealers in steam
heating and hot water apparatus.

absolutely non-
exploslvomnd un-
breakable, which
gives a clear, so“,
brilliant white light
of 85 candle power!
Purer and brighter
than gas light, softer
than electric light,
more cheerful than
either! That lamp is

“The Rochester.”

And with it there is no smoke, no smell,
no bra/Ire» chimneys, no flickering, no sweat! .
no climbing up of the flame, no “tantrum '
nor annoyance of any kind, and it never
needs trimming. its {cunts (oil reservoirs)
being tough rolled seamless brass, with cen-
tral draft, it is absolutely unbreakable,
and as safe a: a tallow candle.

Only five years old, and over a million coda
lmlf in me. it must be a GOOD lamp to
make such a telling success. Indeed it is.
{or lampsl may come and lamps may go, but
the “Rochester" shines on forever! We
make over 2,000 artistic varieties,——Hanglng
and Table Lamps, Banquet, Study, Vase and
Piano Lamps,—every kind, in Bronze, Per.
celain, Brass, Nickel and Black Wrought lron.

Ask the lamp dealer for it. Look for the trade-
mark stamp: “Tn: Roma’s-ran." If he hasn't
thefemu'ne Rochester and the style you want,
ori no lamp-store is near, send to In for
free illustrated _ catalogue (and reduced
price-list) and we will box and send you any
amp safely by express, right to your door.
