MR. MAoNN1s, delegate in Congress from
Montana, and other citizens of that territory
at Washington, have entered q solemn pro-
test against any interference from that point
with the operations of General Miles against
the Northern Sioux. All these gentlemen
from the territories say they have the ut
most confidence in General Miles, and thew
do not believe he would do anything which
would involve the government in any diff
Guilty unnecessarily; but they contend that
in any event he is the best Judge of the
situation in his front, and it would be absurd
in the extreme to attempt to direct his move
ments in detail from Washington OF Chica-
go. We have no doubt but they know what
they are about. General Miles is a brave and
dashing officer, and at the same time discreet
in all that he does. Under orders from Cen
eral Terry at this point no fears may be en-
tertained as to the result of his present cam
paign.

ness in this State are now making their

railroad commissioner. upon which they are
taxed upon sliding scale as follows: Under
three years one per cent. upon gross earn
ings; between three and ten years two per
cent, and over ten years three per cent. In
tabulating the returns the earnings under
the headings "mails,'' express . s.rents''
and miscellaneous are given at the foot Of
the tables, but the aggregate of the several
sums are included in the monthly totals, as
also in the grand totals. The following have
made their returns:

and threatening, to secure the Sioux City
company. Washburn does not come to ST.
Paul with his road because he is such mar
row-minded man that he would sacrifice
the interests of his road rather than run
the risk of benefting st. Paul.
On the other hand, the st. Paul company is
SO broad gauge that it not only seeks Min
neapolis but endeavors to stop their whining
by giving them better rates than st. Paul
enjoys. And still the Washburn gang are
so supremely mean as 10 be denunciatory
and abusive of the hand which feeds them.

Information reached this city late Monday
afternoon that John Kranz, farmer living
at Pennington, about ten miles from here,
had been drowned, with five of his children,
at II O'Clock that day. He was out hayi1g,
and drove his team to pond for water. In
the wagon with the father were six children,
aged 5, 6, z, 8, 8 and II years. The horses
were we'll into the water when the father
went out on the pole to loosen the reins,
which were caught in some way, when the
horses turned suddenly and upset all into
the water. A boy years of age jumped
and saved himself, and the Oldest, girl
of II, got to shore but went back to rescue
the others and was drowned with them. The
drowned man is brother of Antonio Kranz,
of our city; and leaves wife and four
children, aged one, two, three and four years.
He himself was 45 years old. An accident
ofsuch proportion makes whole communi-
ties shudder at the uncertainty ST life.

The Minneapolis Tribune kindly informs
us that Washburn aud his Minneapolis and

to the st. Paul g. Sioux City line. The
Tribune goes back on itself, as it declared
the existence of the hostility in the article
quoted in the GLOBE yesterday, and now it
explains that it is the Sioux City road which
is hostile to Minneapolis and to Washburn's
