allow them to compromise or in any

Fires and Casualties.

Chicago, August ia serious col
lision between two freight trains, one
following the other, on the Illinois Cen.
trail road, occurred at the crossing OF
that road and the Michigan Central
south of the city this morning. The
engine, caboose and about twenty-i five
freight cars were mashed. An unknown
man asleep in the caboose was fatally
scalded. The track was INSTRUCTED
two hours and a half.
Last night at a late hour a ladle con-
tanning molten metal was upset in the
North Chicago rolling mills, frightfully
burning John Rubecker, John Quin-
nand and Patrick McCaulay, the first
two probably fatally.

Alexandria, Aug. 1S.-Arabi Pasha
is said to be negotiating for his escape
in case of need, to the residence of a
fanatical Mohamedan dignltary, on the
borders Of Tripoli. A deserter from
Arab Pasha's forces gives a graphic
description of the misery prevailing in
the latter's camp. He describes the
wounded as crawling about, their suf-
ferings u%nheeded, presenting a sad pic
ture of distress and neglect. Some of
these poor creatures are said to have
been shot by their comrades to free
them from their agony. Many of the
Egyptians are compelled against their
will to fight.

POSTAL SERVICE FAILURE.
How the Postofice Department Does Not
Do Its Work In This Part Of the West.

The United States postal car which
passed through Cheyenne on Thursday
attached to the only dailypassenger train
which reaches this region from the east
was in charge of a single clerk. This
man had never before been over this
route. He was presumably unacquaint-
ed with the names of a large number of
the post offices in the country between
Omaha and Ogden, a distance of more
than a thousand miles. His duties re-
quired him to distribute tons of mail
matter destined for thousands of post
offices, and to remain awake and at
work 6fty-6ve consecutive hours. For
this he is paid $50 a month. On about
SIS a week he buys his meals at the
high-priced hotels along the line of the
railroad, furnishes his uniform, and
perhaps supports a family.
The people of the west, from eastern
Nebraska to California, are to-day get
ting returns from that first trip of a
green p~ostoffice hand on the Union
Pacific railroad. The train coming
from the west on Thursday evening
brought to the Cheyenne postofice
sixty letters forwarded from various
points In the east and which should
have arrived by the train from the east
and been in the p~ostofice at 2 O'Clock
P. m. Judging from the number of
newspapers missed from the mail of
the LEADER, hundreds of newspapers
directed to towns in this territory are
now in mail bags being carried some
where in California, or it may be,
pitched out of the window by the half
crazed postal clerk, are now floating
in the air over the broad plains.
This is but a single example of the
shameful name in which the postal
service in the west is conducted. The
work of the postofice department on
the Union Pacific is inefficient in the ex-
IRENE. Instances might be given by
the dozen of letters astray, letters
delayed, and newspapers lost. The
LEADER has published many of them
in the past six months. That such a
state of affairs should continue to exist
is an outrage. Is there now some
grand steal being perpetrated on the
part of the officials connected with the
~postoffice Department. Is the sum of
money appropriated to this section of

Military Affairs.

Thursdays Omaha Republican: Capt.
Niede's company *" 4th infantry,
from Fort Laramie; which was ordered
to Omaha barracks upon the late trans
fer of troops in the department, arrived
Tuesday afternoon and proceeded i'm
mediately to FoIt Omaha. There are
three companies now at the post,
which will be reinforced later by the
company of Captain Quinn, 4th infan-
try, and the battery of light artillery,
of which mention has been made in the
Republican.
Mention has been made of the court
martial called to try Colonel Joseph
Taylor recently detailed to relieve
Colonel Martin in the department. A
Washington dispatch gives the follow
ing u of the officers falling under
official displeasure: A court-martial
which is likely to make a sensation in
the army was ordered at the war de-
partment. Major Joseph III. Taylor,
assistant a~djutant general, at present
az WIG hcouiuui bCio VI oChbI
al Hunt, department of the south,
Newport barracks, Kentucky, is the
officer offending. He was recently
ordered to go to Fort Omaha to serve
as assistant ad:utant with General o.
o. Howard, who had been ordered
there September LIST from West Point.
The charges against him are insubordI-
nation, and it is understood that he
declines to obey orders because he
does not wish to be associated with
General Howard. General Sherman
threatened some time ago to court
martial officers who sought To interfere
with the action of the department
through members of congress. Taylor
is the first one to ascertain that he
meant what he said.-lOmaha Bee.
Assistant Adjutant General Martin
will accompany General Crook to the
department of Arizona upon the per-
sonal request of the later. Adjutant
General Drum pays Major Martin a
high and deserved compliment in a let
ter replying to an official request.

Tucson, July 1S.-The Stars special
advice from Guaymas, Sonora, of the
10Th says word has just been received
from Trinidad, Sonora, that the
Apaches are depredating fearfully and
committing ~frigbtful atrocities in the
Saquahupa district. A large force of
Mexicans are in close pursuit of the red
skins at Tadato ranch. The Apaches
killed six men passing Lamsa. Polona
killed two in Lucuchilla, two in Arinca
Honda and four three hours afterward,
attacked Ell Cariigal, killed eleven
women and a child, first stripping the
women and outraging them in a most
brutal manner, then putting them to
death in the most cruel manner.
Tucson, August 10, 1:02 p. NJ
Four of the men of the ranch who
were returning saw the houses on fire
and fled. The Apaches gave chase and
three of them took refuge in among
the rocks where they were de-
Tending themselves when the fourth
man, who escaped, brought the news to
Trinidad. A large force of citizens
started at once TO the rescue and cou
riers were sent in all directions to warn
the settlers Of the whereabouts of the
hostiles. No mail riders have arrived
for several days and it is believed that
all have fallen victims to the Apaches.
The number of the hostiles is two hun
dred. They are commanded by Ju, the
Chicuha chief who escaped after the
battle with General Fuero last spring.
Authenticated reports state that Il band
of Apaches have penetrated Alamer
and are depredating there. General
Reyes with a large force is in the Sa-
huaripa district. He declares he will
not spare a buck, squaw or papoose if
he again encounters them.

Omaha, Neb., August 17.-Major
Sumner, of the 9th cavalry, command
ing Fort Robinson, telegraphed the
Department of the Platte yesterday
afternoon that he had received n letter
from flfty-two Sioux chiefs and head
men indicating dissatisfaction at Pine
Ridge agency and giving the interior
department sixty days to take action.
In 1876 General Crook deposed Red
Cloud, who considered himself Spotted
Tails successor. DR.. McGillicuddy,
backed by the department, afterwards
removed him from the c%hieftainship of
his own tribe. This is his revenge, and
it is now feared. as General Crook is
about to go to Arizona, they will go on
the war path. Large numbers of Sioux
warriors have been coming down lately
from Sitting Bulls camp.
There are two troops of the 9th
cavalry and n company of the 9th
infantry at Fort Robinson, sixty-five
| miles away.
The 1900 Sioux would be aided by
the Crows on Powder river.
Later: Yesterdays news regarding the
threat of the Sioux at Pine Ridge that
they will break out in sixty days unless
their agent, DR.. McGillicuddy, is re-
moved before the expiration of that
period, is confirmed by a second dis
patch from Colonel Sumner, command
ing Fort Robinson, who intimates that
the situation is regarded as serious.
Agent McGillicuddy has been tele-
graphed to make a detailed statement
of the origin and causes Of the trouble,
and send the same to Omaha to await
the arrival of General Crook from the
east next week.
Unless the matter is amicably settled
1t is feared that a general Sioux war
will ensue, and the opinion is that
General Crook can settle the whole
affair by comforting with the Indians
in accordance with their request.

The prospective changes in the
management of the Union Pacific will
in all probability work a change in Il .
despatcher's office here, which will
deprive the city of that office, probably
to the gain of North Platte.

st. Petersburg, August 1s.-It is be-
lieved by the Erzeroum of Armenia that
Russiaiis about to occupy the whole of
Asia Minor to Bosphorus. Owing to
the undefended part of Turkey, the
Russians could easily do this with
out much blood, shed. A dispatch to
the Daily Telegraph says it is no secret
that Russia Is concentrating a formula

as estimated. will number 7S.0OO men.

arise in such a case, the division will
probably be divided into two dis
patcher's divisions under the one divi-
sion superintendent. One dispatcher's
office will run the trains from Chey-
enne to Rock Creek, or, perhaps Medi-
cine Bow, while a second office will
operate the line from the latter points
to Green River.
The changes in the Cheyenne office
have not been July determined upon,
and an effort will be made to retain the
Office as ii is. However, it is generally
thought that the Cheyenne office will
be removed to North Platte.
Superintendent Law will make this
city his headquarters.

a Chapter OF Crime.
Reading, August 10. Adam NJ.
Dundore, defaulting e%x-county treas
urer, pleaded guilty of embezzling state
funds. The sentence imposed was
three years of separate and solitary
confinement at hard labor in the Berks
county jail, to pay costs of prosecution,
to make restitution of 81, 9 stolen,
and stand committed until the SEN
tence is complied with. The other
score or so of indictments were laid
over for subsequent action.

John Trumbull, Charles Trumbull and
Ira Hall, the murderers, are lodged in
jail with fair prospects of being
lynched.
Albuquerque, New Mexico, August
lS.-A dastardly outrage in Socorro,
was perpetrated by a gambler named
Sohn Elverad, upon an eight year old
girl Sunday night, which resulted in
his arrest yesterday morning and
his being sent to Jail under bonds
of $4,000. During the night a mob of 200
men quietly took him from the jail and
took him to the little girl who identi-
fed him, and hung him to a tree.
There was very little excitement over
the occurrence.
Pittsburg, August 1S.--A most das-
tardly and cold blooded attempt to
wreck a train was made last night
at the first trestle this side of Allequip-
pi station on the Pittsburg 81 Lake
Erie railroad. AT Allequippi yesterday
there was a picnic, which was attended
by 1000 or more men, women and
children, filling some half dozen
coaches. On their return from ALLIE
quippi the train was going at a rapid
rate, and just before entering the first
%trestle, the engineer discovered a large
beam laying across the track, and the
discovery was just in time to enable
him to stop the train. Had his atten-
tion been attracted in another direction
but for a minute before he saw the
obstruction across the track, the train
would have been precipitated to the
ground below, a distance of 45 feet, and
with the precipitation there would have
been a terrible loss of life. Who put
the obstruction on the track or the
motive is of course unknown.

Condition of trade for the week
ending August IS Business has been
good during the week and the move
ment of merchandise of all kinds has
been extensive. The number of buyers
large and there is a widespread antici-
patton of a healthy trade for the fall
aud winter. Money continues easy
and the clearing house exchanges show
a large increase for New York we the
corresponding month of last year,
while outside of this city, strange to
say, there is a slight falling off.
More active business is doing in the
dry goods trade, but it is more with
the jobbers than with the commission
houses. Buyers from the large dis
tributing points south and west are
here in force making their fall pur-
chases.
The small package trade is notice
ably brisk from all sections of the
country.
Cotton and wooden domestic goods are
firm in prices and in somewhat better
demand than last week. On the whole,
the condition of this great interest is
very satisfactory.
