coNKLING IN CAUCUS.

The Republicans Stand by His Position.
Chicago, Nov. 12.-An Inter-Ocean
special from Washington says Conkling
will insist on the Senate compelling
President Hayes to adhere to his own
civil service rules, and remove no one
without cause. The committee ON
Commerce will ask for the reason why
Collector Arthur and Naval Officer
Cornell of New York and Collector
Jones of Chicago were suspended. The
President is not compelled under any
law or precedent to answer such an in
quiry, but it is expected he will do so,
and the reply will probably be of an in
teresting nature. 1t is understood
that the Republican caucus last night
stood four to one in favor of Senator
Conkling's position.

Adxartiso the Territory.

The auspicious time has come when
Wyoming can reap the greatest possi-
BILE benefit from judicious use of prin-
ter's ink. We are all aware that no
well directed efforts have ever yet been
made officially for the encouragement
of immigration, and that there has
never, until now, been period when
much good could have been accomplish
ed even if public energy had been
directed in that channel. Our small
complement of newspapers have
struggled along against discouraging
odds in endeayors to attract as much
attention to our resources as the unset
tied condition of Indian affairs would
warrant, and now that a new and
peaceful era has dawned upon us, we
ask for a legitimate advertising OF
Wyoming's grand attractions at public
expense.
Few of the Western States or Terri
ties excel Wyoming in diversity of
resources or natural wealth, but they
have nearly all outstripped us in de-
velopment by systematic and deter
mined circulation of printed matter of
nature calculated to draw settlers
and capital. Their legislators were not
content with leaving rich mining dis
tricts, fertile valleys and great pasture
lands, but set to work to advertise such
attractions to the world that capital,
population and strength could be at
tracted to utilize them. We have
thousands of acres of unexcelled pas
ture lands, mountains of rich ores,
grand forests and fertile valleys, and
better than all, we are able to insure
safety to the new conner, and furnish
him profitable outlet or market fol
the results of his enterprise. In othei
words there is plenty of opportunity
for the settler to invest his money ant
pluck on every hand without the inter
ference of the noble savage. Evans

PIATT'S PETARD.
Demanding an Investigation of Military
Prison Management.

Washington, Nov. 11.-Don Piatt's
Capitol to-day publishes under the
heading of startling Disclosures for
the Democratic Congress-" commu-
nication from San Francisco, making
serious charges against the manage
ment of Alcatraz military prison. The
Capitol editorially says there is re-
sponsible name back of this communi-
cation, and advises the House Military
committee, the chairman of which is
Piatt's brother-in-law, to investigate
the matter. The writer, who anony-
mously signs himself ''Old Californian,
charges that the soldiers are often im-
prisoned at Alcatraz in order to save
officers regulations and says the prison
is in charge of an officer, once himself
a prisoner there. During the day
nearly all the prisoners are in charge
of an officer recently convicted of CRU
city and, believe, of causing the death
of a prisoner. There are no rules OBJ
served in the prison. Since the erec-
tion of General McDowell's residence
began the labor is performed at Point
San Jose. The men are worked in
rainy weather without shelter and sleep
in their dripping garments, there be-
ing no time to dry them, as they have
to repair to their respective cells after
the work is done, which is about dusk,
and they commence work again at day
break. Sunday is spent in either
wheeling coal, cleaning cells, or wash
ing clothes. One-half day is allowed
by the rules to enable prisoners to wash
their clothes, but, as said before, no
rules are observed. No religious SER
vices are held in the prison on Sundays.
The writer also says that General Nc
Dowell's residence will cost 800, 900,
and that as nearly all the labor on it is
done by prisoners, he objects to any
further allowance being made for that
purpose in addition to the $4,000 al
ready granted.

TEXAS.
Trouble on the Rio Grande.

AlolbiC Oli LIE INlO 1IdLuCs
st. Louis, Nov. 12.-Late advices
from Ell Paso say it is now believed
there were none of the emissaries of
Lerdo in the band of Mexicans which
crossed the Rio Grande about two
weeks ago and had fight with Indians
OH Texas soil while ostensibly following
the Indians themselves. The real OBJ
ject of these Lerdoists is to stir up a
new revolution, and if possible over
throw Diaz. This band of Mexicans
have not left yet, and are intriguing
and doing everything in their power to
precipitate war between the United
States and the Diaz Government, in the
hope of overthrowing the latter and
again obtaining power for themselves.
1t is said the Lerdo agents are very ac-
tive all along the Rio Grande, and are
also plotting within the army of DiaZ.
Gen. Hibbard, of Texas, returned to
Austin yesterday, to consult with Gen.
Ord and Gen. Steel, the latter of the
State forces, regarding the present
state of affairs on the frontier.
Mr.. Jones, of the Texas battalion at
Ell Paso, has telegraphed the Governor
that immediate trouble is appre-
hcnded and the Governor has been
solicited by number of persons, espe-
cially military officers, to precipitate a
conflict if the Federal Government will
not use troops.

The secretary of War has come o,

The Secretary of War has come out
in the good cause of temperance. He
has issued an order forbidding the en-
ployes of the War Department to par
take of any spirituous liquors between
the hours of 0 a. m. and 4p. M, under
penalty of dismissal. This order is un-
derstood to include even the glass of
beer with which the thirsty clerk has
been wont to wash down his monday
lunch. 1t is tacitly understood that
the order does not extend to army
officers.

MUCH good will result all around
from the Republican caucus on Satur-
day, as the Senators were left at liberty
to communicate to the President the
doings of the caucus, and many have
talked the matter over with him, so
that he knows exactly where each Sem
ator stands. He hoped all misunder-
standing between him and the Senate
would cease.

The Russians Capture a Large Supply
Train.
bucharest, Nov. ia Russian Off
cial dispatch says: A cavalry detach-
ment captured Vratza, half way be-
tween Plevna and Sofia, on Friday, with
several thousand wagons and a large
quantity of stores. The attack was so
sudden that our loss was small, though
the place was defended by 500 Turkish
infantry and 300 Circassians.
Gen. Obrentcheff, who planned the
campaign which resulted in the defeat
