4 large conclave Of Indian chiefs will be held
at tie Interior Department. They come to
have friendly pOw-woW over the question Of
changing their reservation. Through the
courtesy of Standing Bears private secretary

that celebrated Sioux clIiefiain viii deliver on
the occasion, and which will be submitted in
manuscript to Secretary Kirkwood TIE
reader viii observe that Standing Bear speaks
as il lie was addressing his own people at home
This is an idiosyncrasy Of the Indian charac-
ter. BE says:
Gentlemen Of the conference, warriors and
pale faced snooks from the land Of the rising
sun: Ny people are ,Tdially invited by the
white father to pick up their furniture and 20

We are asked to leave our lands and take up
some claims in another locality under the

The white father tells his children TO scoot.
He says be needs these lands in his business.
and asks the red man to gather his papooses
and take little excursion into strange land
The white m4n knows that when he speaks
we must obey his voice. He has the regular
army and another man to enforce his CON-

Shiel, in his .Sketchss Of The H-isi Bar. re-
la,es how Clare jury Of old, in case Of
felonioqs gallantry, acquitted the prisoner OF
the capital charge, but found him guilty of a
great undeacency."
This is nothing to the verdict of Welsh
jury: Not guilty-but we recommend him
not To do it again."
1t is also related that an English jury, not
very bright, having before them prisoner
charged with burglary, aud being unwilling to
convict him capitally, and as no personal vio-
leuce accompanied the robbery gave the safe
verdict; Guilty of getting out of the
window"
But the most original was that of an Irish
jury before whom prisoner pleaded equity"
throwing himself on the mercy of the court.
The verdict was " Not Guilty." The Judge,
in surprise exclaimed :" Why, he has confess
ed his crime I" The foreman responded "0h,
my Lord, yOn do not know that fellow, but
we do. He is the most notorious liar in the
whole country, and no twelve men who know
his character can believe q word he SAYS" So
the prisoner escaped, as the jury adhered
their verdict.
OF the verdicts in the United States we may
mention the following, but will not vouch for
their actualiiy. However, they are funny,
even if they should not be true:
A Rhode island jury was five days debating
on a hog case involving seven dollars. and then
came in, found The hog not guilty, and recon
mended both plaintiff and defendant to the
mercy of tie court.
A Pekin H., corners jury rendered very
singular verdict that man whose body was
found in the river, came TO his death by blow
on the head, (which was given either before
or after drowning"
And this rather doubtful one:
Jury" said Western Judge, "you kin 20
ont and find verdict Ii you cant find one
Of your own, get the one the last jury used"
The jury returned u verdict of Suicide in the
ninth degree"
An Indiana jury recently returned written
verdict Of " Blode tn peces bi the biler bustin."

he was chosen to parliament, and then began
the political career which subsequently became
so remarkable. He still continued to write
and publish works during his entire long
political career. He entered the first parlia.
ment held during Victoria's reign and made
speech which has always been memorable for
its failure. BE was laughed at and jeered dur
ing the speech, but he concluded by saying.
81 am not surprised at the reception have
experienced. I have begun several times
last. I shall sit down now, but the time will
come when you will hear me-"

LONDON, April 1S.-The Mark LaneErpress,
in review of the British grain trade for the
past week, says: The genial weather has de-.
cidedly benefited the wheat plant, which is
now in very satisfactory condition, though
backward.
Business is very small, owing to the holi.

those Of London and Liverpool, where, owing
to the influx of foreign wheat, prices gener.
ally declined Monday from six pence to shil.
ling, except for the very best qualities of
English wheat, and has since retained about
the same level. In. consequence Of change
of wind, thirty wheatladen vessels arrived of
the coast in the six days ending Thursday. Of
these not single sale is reported to that
date.
Sellers demand about 40 shillings for Ameri.

pay only about Ats Cd.
There is a slow consumptive demand for

The off coast market is becoming tolerably
we'll supplied with maize, which was quiet in
all positions. Mixed American is now quoted
at 26s Cd ex. ship. in London, which Is three
pence reduction since Monday. Barley very
quiet. Oats steady.

MILWAUKEE, April tS.-Reports from the
interior of Wisconsin report alarming floods.
The Fond du Lac river is raging torrent At
5 p. NJ. the river was fearful sight. The
water had overfowed the banks and submerged
a great many of the streets. The entire western
portion of the city is under water, which is
still raising. Families in the Third, Fourth,
Sixth and Seventh wards have been compelled
to evacuate their premises, and the lumber
yards along the river are covered with floating
wood yards. The narrow gauge tracks are un-
der water and several washOuts have already
resulted, and the damage will be immense.
Fortunately none of the city bridges have
been washed away. In some localities the
streets are being navigated with boats.
A report from Watertown say. Rock river
has risen five feet the past two days, causing
sudden breakup of the ice, which comes
down in large masses. The bridges leading
to Oak Hill cemetery and Houghton were
both swept away to-day. The river is still
rising, threatening much damage.
Reports continue to come In from all parts
of the State. The rivers all through the south
ern half of Wisconsin are rising remarkably
fast, and trains on all lines are more or less
delayed. The Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
track between Milwaukee and Chicago is COW
cred with water in the vicinity of Wadsworth
and trains are delayed. The Milwaukee,
Lake Shore & Western track north is
In flooded condition for miles.
The regular passenger train from
Wausau had an engine and baggage car ditched
four miles south of Mequon. The engineer
was slightly injured. The Milwaukee river is
rising very rapidly, but no damage of conse-
quence is done yet.
At Racine, Root river is perfect flood. Two
vessels broke from their moorings and were
badly damaged. In almost every town con-
siderable damage is done by the overfowing
of streams.

CHRISTIANCY DIVORCE.

Important Testimony to Disproye the AL

WASHINGTON, April 18.-Some testimony
taken in the Christiancy divorce case to-day is
regarded as important. Mary Algers, with
whom Senator and Mrs. Christiancy boarded
while he was in the Senate, testified that she
spent nearly all of Christmas day, 1870, with
Mrs. Christiancy at the residence of the latter's
father, and that Mrs. Christiancy was sick and
did not leave the house all day. That was the
day that it is charged Mrs. Christiancy met

That the Scenes Of 1877 are to be Re-

CLEVELAND, April 1s.-The moulders are
out in all but three or four foundries In this
city, leaving fifteen or twenty works idle. The
employers have also combined and obedient
to their order the proprietor of the Globe

cent advance, to-day notified their men they
could no longer pay the advance and the mon

and both organized. All classes of working.
men seem preparing to strike If not paid what
they may decide to demand. Nearly all kinds
of tradesmen, even the hod carriers, have been
called to meet and organize unions, and a call
Is issued for all street railway employees to meet
at midnight, after work is done, and arrange
to demand more pay. Apparently some Gen.
trail power is at the bottom of the organiza-
tion of so many labor unions throughout the
country. Doubtless strikes are contemplated
everywhere, like in 1S77.
AT CINCINNATI.
CINCINNATI, Ohio, April 1S.-The execu-
tive committee of the street car strikers, unan-
imously rejected both propositions of the
board of directors Of the company, but modi-
fed their original demand by offering to work
twelve hours day for S1.S0 for conductors,
and 81 81 for drivers. This the directors
refused, saying they adhered to their
original propositions. Tonight at general
meeting of the executive committee report
in favor of accepting the offer of the directors,
was mvde. After stormy and long
discussion it was resolved, by
very large majority, to accept the
offer of an advance of twenty-five cents day
for the same hours they have been working,
viz: fifteen hours day. Under this action
the men will report for duty in the morning,
and the cars are expected to be running as
usual tomorrow. The utmost good feeling
marks negotiations on both sides.
AT ST. LOUIS.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, April 17.-The demand of
mechanics for higher wages is becoming
almost general in this city. At least all these
trades directly connected with the construction
of building of all kinds, are moving in the
matter and no doubt will be followed by others.
The carpenters, bricklayers and masons have
made demands which in many instances have
been complied with, the plasterers have now
notified there bosses they must have an
advance from $3.50 to 81 per day after May
1st or they will strike.
