ESPECIAL TO THE DAILY SENTINEL
Daily Fast Mail Trains-The Direct
u. h. Cable.
New YORK, Sept. 10.
The Pennsylvania railroads, on the
18th, begin running regular daily fast
mail trains to Pittsburg, Cincinnati,
Chicago, st. Louis and other points
west and south west, although the Post
master General notified the Pennsyl-
vania Company that he will not allow
them to commence before the New
York Central can complete its arrange
ments for the Chicago fast mail. Col.
Scott has determined to start his fast
train on Monday, and has notified the
Postoffice Department that postal cars
will be at Jersey City ready for use on
that day. These ears are large, COM
modious, handsomely finished and of
entirely new design, requiring almost
as much care as a parlOr car. The
Pennsylvania Company proposes To
carry passengers IN this train over
part of the route.
The direct United States cable will
be opened for transmission of messages
between America and Europe on Sep
TENDER 18th. The tariff rates will short
ly be published, and the name of the
place from which messages originated
will be transmitted free of charge.
Destruction Of oil Works.
OILCITY, Pa, Sept. 10.
AT six o'clock this morning, light
ming struck one of the tanks belonging
to the Imperial Oil Refining Company,
whose works are near this place. The
tank contained about 5000 barrels of
crude petroleum, which Immediately
ignited, owing to a strong northwest
wind prevailing at the time. The
fire spread nearly over the entire
works. The loss in oil, both crude and
refined, of which there were nearly 49,
600 barrels, and the loss upon the
buildings and machinery and iron
tankage, will not fall short OF 500, 900.
The oil works were n of the most ex-
tensive and most perfect in the coun-
try, and will almost he entirely de-
stroyed.
To Preserve Peace.
JACKSON, Miss, Sept. 10.
One hundred men of this city re-
ported to the Governor to-day that
they would cheerfully 20 to any part of
the State to preserve peace and protect
the right OF citizens; that they did not
know there was any iusurrection in
Kinds or any other county till they
saw his dispatches to Washington, but
we're nevertheless ready to respond. 1t
is understood hat one hundred men
of Lawendes county have also report
ed by letter to the Governor to the
same effect.

The Red Cloud Investigation heard
to-day the statement of Hare in re-
gard to his knowledge of conducting
his business affairs. Commissioned
Smith and Prof. Marsh were present.
The Commission informed Smith that
1t was ready 10 examine such witnesses
as he designated, but he said, AS to wit
nessss on his side, he preferred to wait
till Prof. Marsh concluded what he had
to say. Secretary Delano, Assistant

Spirited Meeting Between Secretary
lDesanO and Professor Marsh-
More Of the Red Cloud Investi.
CATION.
CHICAGO, Sept. IL.
A Washington special says that Sec
rotary Delano and Prof. Marsh met to-
day by accident, at me of the leading
hotels, and a lively conversation en-
sued. Delano insisted that Marsh was
no better than he should be, and Marsh
came back at him with his malicious
Misrepresentation. Friends parted
the two excited gentlemen in time to
| spoil a good sensation. The Indian
Cloud Investigation Commission, is
slightly mixed. The prosecution is
not of that desirable nature that one
would like to see in order to bring out
the full facts charged against the man
agement Of the Indian Bureau in the
first place, while there is difficulty in
bringing forward sworn testimony that
will justify an adverse report. The
Commissioners make a great show of
wanting 10 get through, so as to leave
for home. They might leave at once,
so far as any good is to come from
their continuance. They examined
Bishop Hare for five hours to-day.
The worthy churchman said he had
been present at All interview between
Agent Saville and Prof. Marsh, during
which he had heard the former confess
that u contractor had sold cattle to the
Government not averaging $50 pounds
each while they were charged at the
rate of a thousand pounds. This was
the only point of the Bishops evidence
that held any comfort for the prosecu-
ton. The balance OF his testimony
was to the credit Of the Interior De-
partment. The Bishop denied the
statement sent out by Cowan that he
believed In Deiano's innocence. The
Commission will examine Samuel
Walker tomorrow, As the members
talk of going to Philadelphia to ex-
anime Mr.. Welsh, IS business will not
permit his coming here.
