Vanderbilt's Gift to his Employees.

The employees of the New York Cen
trail & Hudson river road will soon get
the benefit of the 100000 promised
them by William HI. Vanderbilt. The
amount was to be divided ratably accor-
ding to their position on the payroll
among all employees, excepting execu-
tive and departmental officers, and such
as were not directly engaged in operat-
ing the road. The apportionment of
this sum was placed in the hands of
Isaac P. Chambers, the grand auditor.
He has completed it. and says that, out
Of the II, 900 men, 1904 will participate
in the gift. The division, as made by
him, gives the passenger conductors

neers,, $50; fremen, $50; flagmen, S.;
switchmen, 50; laborers and watchmen,
So; mechanics, Sill; foremen, SIG; track
foremen, $11; all others, 50. This IS
just about equivalent to a three months

A Sharp Rebuke.

A clergyman was annoyed by people
talking and giggling. He paused, looked
at the disturbers, and said: I am al
ways afraid to reprove those who mis-
behave, for this reason. Some years
since, as | was preaching, young man
who sat before me was constantly laugh
ing, talking and making uncouth grim
aces. [ paused and administered a Sc
we're rebuke. After the close Of the SER
vice gentleman said to me, Sir, you
have made great mistake; that young
man was an IDIOT Since then [ have
always been afraid to reprove those who
misbehave themselves in chapel, lest |
should repeat that mistake and reprove
another idiot" During the rest of the
service there was good order.

Mr.. George G. Snyder, an aged and
respected citizen of Portage, died very
suddenly on Saturday night. His wife
awoke in the morning to find him lying
dead by her side. He was about town
in his usual health on Saturday. Heart
disease is thought to have been the
cause of his death.
The only mills now running in the
Chippewa valley, are those of the Eau
Claire lumber company, and Knapp,
Stout & Co. All the others have been
compelled to shut down on account of
the low stage of water and the scarcity
of logs. The shortage in the cut for the
season will probably amount to $50, OOO,-

THE RUSSIAN FAILURE.
An Army Without General--A Series of
Mistakes
War Letter to New York Times


Stategically and tatically. every con-
ception has been faulty and every exc
cution defective. Three hundred thous-
and men crossed the Pruth; 100000, ac-
cording to their own accounts, are on
Turkish territory, and with what results?
Their splendid army has been broken
into fragm ents; they have moved along
eccentric, divergent outer lines, were
each step forward removed each frac-
ton further from its base, and from all
possibility of mutual support, They
have fought their troops in driblets and
now, after nearly six weeks occupation
of the outskirts of the enemy's country,
they can only register in their favor the
capture of petty fortress by a force
double the number of its garrison, and
a successful raid to position in the
Balkans which one more defeat will
render untenable. They have no Or
ganized commissariat, they are without
money, and, what is worse than all, not
withstanding their courage, persever-
ance, and daring, they are without one
single general who is capable of success
fully commanding brigade. I always
supposed that there would be great and
serious obstacles to overcome before
their triumph was assured, but [ never
anticipated so utter a collapse. 1 pro-
phesied at the beginning of the war that
if not more than 10000 Russians
reached the second line of the Turkish
defense, not many of them would ever
get back to the Danube, and the occur
rences of the past ten days fully justify
my calculations, which were based, not
upon partiality or prejudice, but upon a
knowledge of the country and of the
qualities Of the Turkish soldier.

Life.

If we die to-day, the sun will shine as
brightly, the birds will sing as sweetly
tomorrow. Business will not be sus-
pended moment, and the great mass
will not bestow thought upon our
memories Is he dead? ?" will be the
solemn inquiry of few, as they pass to
their work. But no one will miss us.
excepting our Immediate connections,
and IN a short time they will forget and
laugh as merrily as when we sat beside
them. Thus shall we all, now active in
life, pass away. Our children crowd
close behind us, and they will soon pass
away. In few years not a living being
can say, | remember HIM" We lived
in another age, and did business with
those who slumber in the tomb Thus
is life! How rapidly it passes.

ingly suit was brought against a firm
of millers in Georgetown, ID. c., with
whom the pretended patentee was on
the most intimate terms andln whose
employment he had been before, if not
at the very time of the tendency of
the suit. The defense made, it is said,
shows Enthusiastically that there was a
perfect understanding between plain
tiffs and defendants, and the Court was
compelled to decide the case as pre-
scented before it. This case was prosecu-
ted with such perfect secrecy that not
another miller in the United States
knew of its existence until it was termi-
mated. Now it is upon this case as thus
presented that this Washington ring
ask all the millers of the country to pay
them royalty on every barrel of flour
made in the country. If they have the
right to collect anything they can as
we'll collect fifty cents Il barrel or $25,-
100000 year as a less sum. Having
obtained their Supreme Court decision
they next applied for an injunction
against the great Washburn mill at
Minneapolis, and pending hearing of
the case the proprietors were compelled
to give bond in the sum of $25O,00O
before they could continue to use and
occucpy their property. AS soon as
this action was had threatening circu-
lars were sent to all the millers of the
country, telling them that the pro-
prietors of the Washburn mill could not
get decision for several years, and
all that time would have to work on in
uncertainty as to whom they are work
ing for" and that other millers must pay
UP at once or be enjoined. We do not
hear of any millers being frightened or
compromising, but they all feel uneasy
to think that it is in the power of an I'M
scrupulous irresponsible and corrupt
Washington ring to subject them to
injunctions until their rights can be
legally determined. 1t seems to us
that there ought to be a way to very sum-
marily dispose of this matter and relieve
public anxiety. 1t looks like a conspiracy
of stupendous proportions. Every man
woman and child in the United States
outside of the conspirators is interested
in having it speedily exposed. Let the
public demand that on the assembling
of Congress a Committee shall be APP
pointed charged with the investigation
of the whole subject, and our word for
it, no one will be troubled after that.

THE INDIAN WAR.

Associated Press dispatches of Aug.
70, from DeadWood, state that the party
OF twenty persons who left here about
two weeks ago for the Little Missouri
river returned today. They report that
last tuesday afternoon the party dis
covered Indians close to them They
selected high ground and dug rifle pits;
had been digging about twenty minutes
When party OF 800 Indians appeared
on the bluff opposite, about 400 wards
or, and commenced firing at them.
The fight lasted nearly four hours.
Thomas Carr, recorder of the Deadwood
mining district,
WAS SHOT THROUGH THE HEAD
and killed. Twenty-seven horses, be-
longing to the Miners were also killed.
After dark the Indians withdrew, and
the miners escaped, being obliged to
walk $50 miles to reach this city.
The following is the statement of
Captain Bainbridge, commanding Fort
Hall: Il left this post at 2 P. NJ, of
the 18th instant, for General How
ards command, with an escort or ten
soldiers and fifty Bannock's Shoshone
scouts, authorized by General Sheridan;
reached Gen. Towards on the morning
of the 22d inst, having marched one
hundred and fifty miles. Howard was
directed on the hostile trail, one days
march IN the rear. [ marched with him
one day, and left him fifteen miles south
OF Henry's Lake, which place he in
tended to reach the same day The hos
tiles are badly demoralized.. There are
not to exceed two hundred fighting men.
The
FREIGHTERS AND RANCHMEN
along the Montana road are in a verv
demorallzed condition. The freighters
on the road between Sand Hole and
Pleasant Valley at the time the hostiles
| struck it, had left their wagons where
they happened to be- in most instances
loaded with valuable freight, and had
taken their stock to places of safety. In
one instance I found two wagons, one
loaded with metallic cartridges and an
other with powder, but the hostiles had
not disturbed them. AS soon as I had
passed over the road the freighters COM
mencod moving again. It is believed
the hostiles had disturbed no freight on
the road.
| HOWARD WAS PLEASED
to get Indian scouts, and thinks they
will do him good service. Howard and
his command are having severe cam
paign, but are all in good spirits, hop
ing to punish the hostiles in a short
time.

DAVID A. Wells has contributed to
the September atlantic an exhaustive
article to prove that evidences of debt
are not property. The article seems to
have been brought out by a suit, in
which Connecticut money loaner held
mortgages on property in Illinois and
was assessed on the mortgages in Con-
necticut. Arefusal to pay taxes brought
the suit. The argument of Wells, which
doubtless contains all that can be said
on that side is that the man was lille
gally assessed. The theory of political
economists is that taxation must follow
the property; that the real property in
Illinois, although covered by the mort
gage, was assessed and paid its pro rata
of taxes, and that there is no other prop
erty represented; the mortgages not
being property are not subject to taxa
ton. In theory no doubt Mr.. Wells is
correct, but in practice this is like many

ALTHOUGH the accounts of the fight
ing in Bulgaria during the past few days
indicates that the Turks have really sue
ceeded In gaining considerable territory
by assuming the offensive in the con-
f1ict; it is not at all certain that the
movement is wise one. The side of
the offensive belongs to Russia and it is
exceedingly doubtful whether condition
Of things had arisen that warranted the
Turkish commander in assuming the
offensive. The advantages Of defensive
over offensive warfare are great beyond
computation. In the case of the great
rebellion in this country the greatest
mistake of the southern general was
that of assuming the offensive and eros
sing the Potomac. The defeat of Lee
at Gettysburg was his greatest defeat
1t did more to intensity the war feeling
In the north and to demoralize the
armies of the south than any other one
battle of the war. It is more than half
the battle to have an army confident
that it can win the victory. Even the
valor of the Turks will sooner or later
give way if repeatedly hurled against the
earthworks of largely superior forces.
Turkey cannot afford to block up the
Schipka pass with her dead soldiers and
while Ottoman armies can boast Of no
more valiant warrior than Suleiman
Pasha, there is exceeding great danger
that he may prove very bad comman-
der for the Turks at this time. Turkey
needs all her soldiers and he is the best
commander for the Turks who best
guards the lives of his men. The chances
are all in the direction of disaster to the
Turks as a result of the offensive opera
tons Of the Turkish commanders No
amount of reclaimed earthWorks or re-
captured towns and villages, or even re-
captured mountain passes will COM
pensate Turkey for the depletion Of
her armies. Soldiers are everything
and territory nothing to the Sultan. The
valor of the Turks in assuming the
offensive against the Russian armies
cannot but be admired by all disint crest
ed nations but time will in all proba-
bility convince even the Turks that it is
unwise in a military point Of view.
