Business Intertst, LOoksnx Up.


There has been a very noticeable and
gratifying Improvement in the outlook
in business circles of most all branches
in Knoxville during the past week or
two. Our leading wholesale mercan-
tile establishments give marked evil
dence from day to day of live and
steadily increasing trade. The en-
ployees all seem to be kept busy, their
front pavements are kept filed daily
with boxes, packages, etc., either being
received or shipped away, and many
other business-like evidences.
The retail men seem to be doing 8
healthy business, and in most other
& lines there ia picking up and inn
provement, so that on the whole
everything points to the fact that the
bottom has been reached in financial
depression, and that the spring trade
opens out with bouyant and encour-
aging prospects of I" better times COM

Green and Baldwin on Trial.

Hastings, April 24.-The trial of
Green and Baldwin, charged with
being accomplices and aids to Olive in
the killing of Mitchell and Ketchum,
is slowly progressing. Eighty-three
persons were examined before a jury
could be obtained. The jurors finally
chosen are: D. H. Hill, H. S. Munger,
Darwin Soule, Fred Wagner, VIM.
Stewart, o. c. Rogers, Lawrence Cope
land, NJ. ]. Foutz, Charles Sperry, E.
S. Harriott and L. H. FELTON,.
Several witnesses were examined,
and among others Benjamin s. Hassen,
who testified he had heard Baldwin say
if Olive would get the prisoners, he
would 'help fix them.'
G. L. Hewey heard Baldwin say he
would like to arrest and kill the whole
outfit that killed Stephens. He wa.
under the influence of whisky.
w. II. Head testified that he had a
conversation with Baldwin in relation
to Mitchell and Ketchum; about going
after them; said Stephens was one o.
the best friends he ever had; said he
would follow Mitchell and Ketchum to
hell but what he would see them burnt.
This was about ten days before the 10th
of December.
The prisoners, especially Baldwin,
will doubtless be convicted.

Comments on the colored Exoe

Comments on the colored Exodus.
New York, April 24.-The Times,
commenting on the exodus, condemns
the partisan feeling exhibited OH both
sides, and thinks the movement of the
negroes north has little merit, and is
not worth encouraging. Nevertheless,
the brutal course of the opposition
shown towards it by the planters in
Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkansas,
will go far towards persuading the
north to aid the exodus.
The Tribune says: "The negro exodus
is said to have so alarmed southern
congressman that their attitude toward
the Chinese has entirely changed. II
the bill restricting Chinese immigration
were to come up again, it is thought
that the south would be solid against
it, because of the possibility that Chi.
nese labor may be desired to replace
that of the fleeing negroes. This may
be one Of the reasons why, the anti
Chinese bill is not revived.

WASHINGTON TERRITORY,
Interesting Indian News.

San Francisco, April pa Yakima
City, Washington territory, dispatch
says: Saluskin, AN Indian, was arranged
before Justice Beck yesterday for the
murder of the Perkins family. Sa-
luskin made confession relating to
the murder with every detail. 1t is
very evident from his account of after
events that these valleys had very
narrow escape from bloody massacre
last summer. Chief Moses had his
runners out watching the progress of
the fighting between the Snakes and
Matthias and the soldiers. Had the
hostiles been successful, they would
have crossed the Columbia river and
Moses would have Joined them in antic-
ipation of Indian success. Moses had
previously arranged his warriors so as
to surround the country, especially in
Snoqualemil and Matches passes. He
would then have formed his forces from
the south and brought them to bear on
the settlements with Yakima City as
his objective point. Nothing but the
presence of gunboats on the Columbia
river saved the lives of the population
in these valleys. The people here are
very indignant at Moses treachery dur
ing the time of his talk with Gen How
ard last summer, when Howard de-
manded the murderers, Moses said he
did not know where they were but
would find and deliver them. From
this confession all of the murderers
were on the spot at that very moment.
Moses afterwards ordered them away
and they left.
Sheriff Thorp arrested three Indians
for complicty in the murder of the
Perkins family and firing upon other
citizens last July. The prisoners were
given up by their chief April 1st, and
were kept for several days before he
left for Yakima City. On the 18th of
April three Indians made their appear
ance in Thorp's camp and a hand to
hand engagement took place. The In
dams father was killed and one of the
prisoners fell and was not seen again.
Resell, one of the sheriff's party, was
shot in three places. The Indians then
left. Thorp's horses were driven off
and the Indians are now being pur-
sued. 1t is not likely that, this will
lead to any general trouble as it was
participated in only by relatives of the
prisoners. If the horses and prisoners
are returned in few days everything
will be right, if not returned trouble
will ensue.

ROSCOE CoNKLING
Makes a Stirring Speech on
the Army Appropria-
tion Bill.
A Remarkably Fine Effort by this Great
Statesman.

Washington, April 24-The princi-
pal feature of the senatorial proceed
ings to-day was the great speech of
Roscoe Conkling on the army bill. The
following is synopsis:
In the course of his remarks, he said
the effect of the army bill is to prevent
the suppression of any violence by any
armed men, acting under national au-
thority on election day. In
New York, OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES hit
ter, carrier of the dirk or bowie knife,
every graduate of rat pits, bucket
shops and slums, the nurseries of what
Is nowadays called the democracy,
and every man from Kings bridge to
the battery, is advised before hand that
no enormity of his will be checked by
the law officers Of the government.
(sensation). Another bill to be brought
forward provides that even if the cleo
tions are turned into bloody burlesques,
the national authority must keep away,
though the white leaguers may take an
active part, armed perhaps with bull
let's furnished by the government. If
there ever was time when such law
would be safe, that time is not now.
He declared the bill, as presented for
action, contained a huddle of incon-
gruities, Objectionable as independent
measures even. The evident design is
to coerce the president into violating
his sense of right that the government
might live. The democrats had got
themselves into predicament from
which they must back out, unless the
executive led them out.
The majority had threatened to va
cate their seats and leave the country
moneyless If the president vetoed the
bill. If they did SO, he trusted they
would be called back immediately, un-
til they relinquished their monstrous
pretensions.
He then made long constitutional
argument, fortified by various authori-
ties, as to the right to use troops at the
polls conferred by the constitution. He
referred to Gen. McClellan's orders to
preserve peace at the polls during the
war, and said he never knew demo-
crat during the rebellion who did not
profess an intimate knowledge of the
constitutional requirements, even if he
could not read the title Of the constitu-
tion. He quoted from history to show
the inconsistency of the democrats on
this question; the act to which the
election law was attached, was passed
while the rebellion was in its last
throes, and was not war measure in
operative in peace.

CRUSHED AND TORN.
Under the Wheels of a West
Bound Freight
Train.

The Union Pacific track in front of
the Black Hills stage Office in this city
was the scene of a terrible accident this
morning about eleven O'Clock. James D.
Jones, but slightly known in Cheyenne,
was run over by several cars of the
west bound freight train, receiving in
juries that will cause his death.
From the facts it appears that Jones
attempted to get In on the truck under
one of the freight cars of train No. 9,
for the purpose of stealing ride, but
was struck on the head by the moving
car, and knocked down. He fell SO
that the cars, several in number, passed
lengthwise over his right thigh, aud
diagonally over his abdomen. The
fingers and thumb of his right hand
were also crushed.
OF Jones' history very little Is known.
He claims that he has father living at
Wellsborough, Tioga county, Penn, by
the name of J. E. Jones, and that he
came to this place last Monday from
Fort Collins, Colo, where he had been
working for a man named Tenny.
Last Thursday he was employed by the
Western Union telegraph company of
this city to assist in making some re-
pairs on the telegraph lines west of
this place. He got through with this
work and returned to the city last
night, got drunk and was locked up in
the city Jail where he remained until
this morning. All evidence points to
the conclusion that he attempted to
steal ride on the freight train, incur
ing thereby his fatal injury. He lies
at the county hospital now, where his
death is momentarily expected.
The injured man died at five
O'Clock this evening. AS he was kept
constantly under the influence of anaes-
thetics his dying moments were void
of pain.
