ment OF all matters and questions of whatever
kind between them, and this, he thinks, can be
effected by an amicable arbitration, with good
results 10 both parties. II 1t should be deter
mined by the committee to insist upon the cash
payments named by one of the committee, the
company would prefer the contract as 1t is,
leaving the question at issue to be set
tied In future on equitable terms. The
contraction in values, he says, has largely
exceeded the calculations of the company,
and the amount received from sales of lands
has not been as large as was expected. The
road was built in times of higher prices, and
although economically constructed, cost a very
large sum, and he raised the question whether
the nation, it being the principal beneficiary
should not share in the shrinkage, the saving
to the Government every year being more than
the annual interest it pays ON the bonds of the
company.
Secretary Robson has addressed a commu-
nication to the House Committee on Naval AZ
fairs, demanding hearing for himself and
any naval officers against whom any damaging
testimony has been taken in the recent inves-
legations of the Navy department. He also
asks that the hearing be had in open session OF
the committee.

Sundays in Edinburgh.

The wandering New Highlander finds
no Sundays more to his heart than those
he spends in Edinburgh. No street
cars are running. The cabs are in the
stables. The gin shops are closed. The
pedestrians who throng the streets as
the day wears on, and swarm into
Queens p rk and over Cation Hill and
Arthur's Seat, are CHEEKY of face and
busy of tongue, but sober and orderly.
Toward night High street is full of peo-
pie who pour into it from the six, eight,
ten-storied tenement houses on the
neighboring wynds aid closes. Street
preachers and Bible women discourse to
ever-shifting groups. Morning and
evening the tide sets into the churches.
There is no other such church-going
people as the Scotch. 1 should think
that nine-tenths of the church goers
were Presbyterians. In the rural dis
tricts, at least, everybody knows the
everybody can sing the old
psalm tunes, every cottage has its Bible

A letter from Fort Laramie says: The
Indian war for years predicted has act
ually begun. For months numbering of
white men has been confined to the
Black Killers, but now United States
mail carrier, en- route to Camp Robinson
and Red Cloud agency, has been killed,
scalped, and fearfully mutilated.
This news was brought here to-day by
Gen. Crooks party, returning from the
agencies. Well-informed persons in In
dian affairs say, in fact, that this attack
was intended for the General, as it oc-
CURED only fifteen minutes after that
party and his had passed each other on
the road.
Gen. Crook, accompanied by Col.
Stanton and Lieut.. Bourke, had been to
the agencies trying to obtain the assist
ance of the peaceful Indians in subduing
the hostile bands of Sioux. At first, it
seemed this much-desired object was Sc
cured. Such chiefs as Conquering Bear
and Sitting Bull or Two Strike stating
in council their willingness to join in
keeping peace on the frontier and put
ting down numbering and stealing by
dog-soldiers, renegades, Cheyennes, and
bad-faces.
This council was held in the absence
of Agent Hastings and Indian Inspector
Vandevere. On their return total
change of sentiment took place. The
chiefs iusolently declined all offers by
Government officers to help police these
plains. The sudden chopping round, it
feo af1 10 duo 10 fhn inf of
Hastings and Vandevere. 1t is to be
hoped so serious charge is not true, for
it would otherwise seem as if they did not
desire the Northern bands to be pun
ished and made to acknowledge the au-
thority of the Government to put them
on reservations.
AS soon as the Indians became inso-
lent, Gen. Crook broke up the council
with brief "That will do. 1 don't
want YOU" This may be the occasion
of the premeditated attack, which failed
in its original design, but the fact that
Red Clouds son-in- law was wounded
while attacking party of whites on In
dian creek, and other evidences, point
to the conclusion that, If the Indians
leave the agencies, the military will be
unable to protect settlers.
Every party arriving here from the
Black Hills bring additional news of an
other killing by Indians from the agen-
cies. To-day news is received of Jim
Sanders and four others, killed on Sand
creek. Sanders was an old plainsman,
having been guide, hunter, wagon
master, and contractor for the Govern
ment before Gen. Harney's time.
Eighty lodges of Ogallajas have left
the Red Cloud agency to join the war.
This is thought to be only forerunner
of general exodus of all but the old
men, quaws and children.
Col. Stanton held council for Gen.
Crook with Spotted Tail, Chief of the
Brules, about Indian scouts for an expe-
dition. Old "Spot" replied that he
had made big name as warrior when
a young man. but now he was old and
did not want any more glory, and his
young men could not fight without him.
