regarding the deficit in Brooklyn City

rested last night, but it was stated at late
hour this afternoon that he was TO be ar

conjunction with the mayor, and not by the
CITY treasurer. Cartlsnd Sprague is to be

IT is rumored worthless check for $4,000
(others say of $50,0 ,000) well known in Wan
street as the Van Saun check, has found its
way into the vaults of the Brooklyn Trust

as good as gold.

FORT SILL.
Ista Indeed Canturea.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 29.-The EUening Dis
patch publishes authoritative information
from Fort Sill as late as Aug. 81, which
is TO the effect that on the 20th inst. Gen.
Dav dson left Fort Sill with his cavalry un-
Ger orders of Gen. Augur to suppress the
Indian dis urbances on the Texan frontier,
leaving but three companies of troops TO
garrison the fort. The exped ton was ex-
pec.ed to be gone 40 days. Nothing has
been heard from there since the above date,
but the weakness of the garrison, with the
knowledge that the Indians in that region
are familiar with all that relates to the de-
fence of the fort, causes much apprehension
on the part ofpersons here who have friends
or relations at the pest that the report from
Waco, Texas, of its capture and massacre
of its inmates may be true.
Heavy Criminal DOcket-MOre Of the
Fort SiIl Massacre. tl
PARSONS, Ks, Aug. 29.-The Deputy
United States Marshal states that at the re-
cent sitting of the United States District
Court at Fort Smith, Ark, Nineteen per-
sons were convicted Of murder. These
persons are citizens of the Indian territory,
and were arrested in the Indian country,
taken to Fort Smith and convicted by jury
not composed of citizens Of their own coun-
try. Such fac s will soon convince the In
disDs that territorial government should be
extended over that Territory and United
States courts established so that crime COM
mitted in their country can be tried at home
by jury of their own couDtrymen.
There are rumors that amount almost to
certainty, that a terrible massacre has ben
committed at Fort Sill, occasioned by the
return of Santanta and Big Tree, recently re-
turned from prison in Texas.
Gov. Osborn will soon publish letter TO
the Pre-. ideut asking the suspension Of
| further can n,ellation Of settlers entries on
Usage ceded lands, and that no patents shal
be issued to railroads until the whole ques-
ton has been passed upon by the Supreme
| Court of the United States, where the
question is soon to go by agreement between
railroads and settlers.

KNIGHTS TRMPLaR.

PHILADELPHIA, September 25.-l he
grand tourney of the Knights Templars
at the Academy of Music has been a
complete success. 1t is estimated that
from ten to twelve thousand people were
present. The exhibition drills lasted in
both halls until ten o'clock p. M, when
dancing commenced. Broad street was
illuminated by calcium lights placed on
the balconies of both halls. An exhi-
bition in the yestibule of the Academy
consisted of picture of the new tenn
pie in mosaic with mother of pearl. In
an hour after the doors opened both
halls were filed. The bugle sounded
at half-past eight o'clock, the curtain
rose, and the Knights, fully equipped,
appeared on the stage, presenting a
grand spectacle. From the stage the
grand officers entered and reviewed the
line. The Communicates broke in
three and filed past through connecting
passage into Horticultural Hall. The
staging of the hall was covered with
plants, etc. About five thousand Ma
sons from the country arrived in this
city to-day.
