During yesterday the Indians who are stopping
at the Grand Central Hotel remained in their quar-
ters, on the fifth floor, and In the afternoon party
OF them had an excursion In barouche5 to the Gen.
trail Park, which, Of course, they admired very
much Late in the afternoon Colonel O'COnnOr,
who belongs to the regular army, and Is the Indian
agent in charge, purchased thirtysix orchestra
chairs at the Grand Opera House, and that number
of braves and chiefs, together with Colonel O'Con.
nor and the interpreters, visited the play
of "Le Roi Carotte." The chiefs had their
paint on and wore the usual eagle
feathers on their topknots. Governor Edward
McCook, OF Colorado; Mr.. Oregon Wilson, the
artist; Mr.. George Clarke, the comedian; delegate
McGinniss, OF Montana, and other gentlemen were
present and conversed with the Indians. "Lost
Med.cne,n the big chief, created quite sensation
in the theatre, and he was much admired by the
ladies'.
The ballet and Mrs. John Woods jokes pleased
the Indians very much, but the Sioux were most
feats completely astonished them beyond measure.
One Of the Indian braves expressed wish
to make Miss :, Emma H Howson on his his, squaw,
first class chief declared that the monkey ''scene"
beat anything that she had ever seen In her life,
win give dinner party al her own room before
she leaves. There was an amusing Incident
which occurred during the evening gen,
in a good situation to see the burlesque
and when he went to take 1t he found an
an immense Indian by name "Bl0ody Mouth"
sitting in it, giving no regard for civilized usages
which did not permit of reserved seat being taken
possession of In such q manner. The gentleman
looked at the big Indian and went back to the box
oflce, where he found Mr.. John Duff.
Man WITH THE ORCHESTRAL CHAIR-Mr. Dun,
there is big Indian In my seat, and YOU know that
is not right; want him out OF there.
Mr.. DuFF-Is he very big Indian that's got your
seat?
MAN WITH THE ORCHESTRAL CHAIR-Qulte large
and very rough.
Mr.. DrFF-Wel go and snake him out and take
your chair.
MAN WITH THE CHAIR-No, thank you; will take
a back seat. as do not want to hurt him.
The Indians will pay visit to the art studio OF
Mr. oregon Wilson, No. 1272 Broadway, this after
noon at two O'Clock, and In the evening twelve
chiefs, three squaws and sixteen braves in their
war paint and feathers, will visit Wallack's Theatre
TO witness the play OF .'Pygmalion and Gaatca."
They will, doubt, be much amused by the cnaste
language, elegant dialogue and skillul plot Of the

THE COACH AND CAB DRIVERS STRIKE.

The strike of the coach and cab drivers continued
yesterday, Merriam, Henry, Wilson and a few other
employers still holding out. Nearly all the principal
stables have, however, conceded the advance rom
s12 to $l4 week. The objection made by the en-
poyers who hold out is that they do not want to
pay cab drivers more than $13 week, while they
are willing to give the s14 to coach drivers. The
committee appointed for the purpose appeared be-
fore the Mayors Marshal yesterday at noon to
prefer charges OF violation OF the ordinances against
Messrs. Banned. Henry and Merriam, and were
about pressing the complaints when Mr. Banfeid
told his men he would give the advance. The
drivers were, therefore, unwilling to proceed any
farther In the matter, and the Marshal stated
that for the present he would hear no
other complaints To-day the committee will again
appear before the Marshal and prefer charges
against Mr.. Merriam and Others The men stated
last evening that they were cOurteously received
by the Mayor and other officials in his offlce. To-
day the committees will continue to watch the
stables and coaches driving through the city, for
the purpose OF seeing II any unlicensed drivers
have been employed. Those men who have gone
TO work at the S1i a week are the most earnest in
demanding the advance for their fellow workmen,
and express themselves willing to share their
wages with the men out OF employment while the
strike lasts. mass meeting OF the drivers from
all parts OF the CITY will DO held on Sunday evening
next.

SEVENTH RUBINSTEIN CONCERT.

There was very good attendance at Steinway
Hall last evening. The fame OF the great Russian
pianist and the no less celebrated Polish vlonst
has spread beyond the circle OF ordinary concert
goers, and has already taken hold Of the general
public, chat last night there were grave, earnest
listeners, to whom the piano and violin In the
hands of these surprising artists were sources OF
pure, unaloyed pleasure. Rubinstein, great at all
times, surpassed himself on this occasion. The
"Concertstuck' OF Weber Is well known here,
and Ia likewise q favorite In the concert
hail. But lew artists are able to interpret
IT In all Its massiveness and sensuous
beauty. We have heard piansts In this city who
passed trumphantly the ordeal OF Lszt, and yet
came to grief in this remarkable work OF the COM
poser OF "Der Freischuetz." Won Bulow Is, per-
at present in Europe. But the chaste style and
classical finish OF Buiow pale before the impetu-
osity and brio OF Rubnstcin. There were a ner-
formance Of this work last evening that
lifted 1t into the regions OF sublimity.
Through the lOrtes OF Carl Bergmann's orchestra
welled up those mighty piano passages Ike the
rcsstless rush OF a mountain torrent, and a
perfect tornado OF sound, always obedient to the
magic fingers of the player, rose above the din OF
strings brasses and reeds. Then those wonderful
crescendos In which one would think that the
piano was provided with the pedal swell OF an
organ, tney were given with an effect perfectly
indescribabe. In no other work has Rubnstein
made such profound and lasting impression In
Wienawski played a very melodiotE and well
written concerto or his own EJo III ID minor)
with that elegant inis pure, sympathetic, true and
noble conception that characterize all the perform
ances OF THIS artist. The WORK has the rare merit
in modern compositions for the violin OF entire in
teligibility, unity OF idea and poetic spirit. In
some OF his other works Wcniawski excited the
audience to such pitch Of enthusiasm that every
one cheered, applaude3 and went into ecstatic ex-
travagances. Mile. LieDhart and Mile. Ormeny were
the vocalists. Another concert takes place this

miles an hour, the trucks OF the mail car Jumped
the track. Down brakes was sounded, but such
was the momentum Of the train that 1t could not
be checked up until the trucks that had jumped
the track struck the tlmbers OF high trestle 1876
yards from the point they left the track. The
treste gave way at once, and the front OF the
smoking car was upset and went down a bank
The second coach fell through the trestle and was
TELEsCOPED
by the one following. The locomotive and baggage
and express cars passed the trestle In safety and
the last passenger coach and sleeper remained on

RUSSIAN IMPERIALISM OFFENDED WITH THE KHAN
The Cabinet OF His Imperial Majesty the Gear
Alexander OF Russia commenced actively to pre-
pare for new expedition against Khiva during the
early days of the month OF August In the present
year. The government at st. Petersburg has long
been dissatisfied with the Independent tone as
sumed by the Khan Of Khiva, and some six
months since His Majesty's Ministers sent
him an ultimatum demanding num-
Der or concessions which would practically
reduce Khiva to the position OF q depedency or
Russia. The Khan received the messenger with
Oriental poteness, heaping all sorts Of honors
npon him and giving HIM also the release or two
Russian prisoners, one OF whom was colonel in
the imperial army; but he paid no attention what
ever to the terms OF the ultimatum. The Russian
government accordingly directed the commandant
OF the Caucasus to reconnore the roads leading to
Khiva, and to provide provisions and transport for
a corps darmee to be sent into that country.
