Sac and Fe !. elegations in Washington.
WASHINGTON, Oct. "a delegation of Sac
and Fox Indians of Iowa, accompanied by
Agent Davenport, had conference with In
dian Com'r Price this forenoon. These In
dians, seven in number, represent about 25
members of their tribe who are opposed to
signing receipts for annuities 325 members of
the tribe have already signed, but the minori-
ty insist upon an amendment to the
law and refuse to accept money due
them. 1t appears they entertain SUPER
stition that ii they sign for the money they
will die. Commissioner Price informed the
delegates that the money due their tribe, some
$11 900 would be withheld until every one be-
longing to it had signed the roll of the depart
ment. They appeared at the department in
war paint and wore an abundance of feath-
ers. Two or three carried tomahawks, VOWS
and arrows and bludgeons
Extensive Preparations for War Among
the Yaqui and Mayo Indians.
TUCSON, Ari. Oct. 9.-Despatches from
Commandant Ortis at Alamos reports exten-
sive preparations for war among the Yaqui In
dians inhabiting the banks of the Yaqui river,
twenty miles south of here, land numbering 10,-
800. They are under the celebrated Chief Ca
jamo. He has organized cavalry, infantry and
artillery forces, with large supplies Of ammu-
milton. The Mayo Indians number about
500S, and are settled on the banks of the Mayo
river, about ten miles from the Yaqui river.
Charles Hustler, the interpreter of the San
Carlos agency for several years past, in an in
teryiew, said the dissatisfaction among the
Indians was caused by the conduct of Agent
Tiffany, who, instead of giving the rations to
the Indians, sold them to traders last season.
Hussler states that the principal raiding, kill
ing and plundering by the reservation Apaches
was planned by one or two whites. His rela-
tion with the agency ss interpreter compelled
secresy. Tiffany vas also scheming to protect
his wards, no matter what they might be
guilty of. He has revealed a state of affairs at
San Carlos under Agent Tiffany that is fearful
facts which are in the possession of the prop
er authorities, but witch cannot be given to
the public until parties who have been in COM
plicity with the Apache murderers and thieves
are taken into custody.

AN VERTISEMENT

In a Paris Journal and What Came of 1t.
PARIS. France Oct 9.-Isidore Dreyfus, the
great Paris banker, had an advertisement in
serted IN the papers to the effect that he
would pay no debts contracted by his younger
SOD, Maxine. The latter appears to be good
humored, careless young prodiga, and he
forthwith sent to the Gaulois a paragraph
stating that he was destitute, and would
thankfully receive the smallest donation, pe-
cuniari or otherwise, that the public would
send him. His elder brother, CASTOR Dreyfus,
didn't see any fun in the matter, and meeting
Arthur Meyer, manager of the Gaulois, at the
Bourse, had high words with him. Although
the latter explained that it was an advertise
ment for which he was in no way responsible,
and that be had no intention Of wouDding the
feelings of the Dreyfus family, CASTOR struck
him in the face. On Wednesday morning he
two gentlemen, dolly attended, met in the Bois
de Boulogne. Swords were chosen. After the
first pass 1t was apparent the young banker
was the better fencer. Meyers right cheek
was laid open to the bona, but he continued to
press his antagonist gallantly until he was cut
across the sword arm. This, and his weakness
from loss of blood, brought the duel to an end
There was great excitement over it at the
Bourse, and the probability is that Meyer, as
soon as he is we'll enough, will have to go out
agaiz with a stock broker, an adherent of the
Dreyfus family.

Ross's MURDER.
The Glendale. O., Tragedy shrouded in
Mystery

The Glendale, o., Tragedy Shrouded in
Mystery.
CINCINNATI, Oct 9.-Most active work is be-
ing done by the police under stimulus of the
heavy reward offered for the arrest of the mur-
derel or murderers of A. w. Ross at Glendale.
The most generally accepted theory is that the
murder was committed by persons who knew
Ross's habit of coming home by the late train.
Saturday night and that he was accustomed to
aligbt from it at the crossing near his home in
stead Of riding on to the depot. His body was
found within 100 feet of the railroad showing
that he was attacked Immediately after leay-
ing the train. He was struck both from be-
hind and in trout He had in his hand a small
revolver which he had never began to carry
until two weeks ago. 1t was not cooked and
all the chambers were full showing that he
was attacked unawares. The robbery was done
SO hastily and incompetey as to show that the
work was not done by professionals No weap-
on was found with which il was theught the
murder was committed. The wounds Indicate
that an iron rod or bar was used. There will
be meeting of the village council of Glendale
tonight to offer q further reward for the arrest
of the murderer or murderers.
The commissioners today offered reward of
$1,000 for the Srrest and conviction of the mur-
derer of Mr.. Ross. The coal exchange of
which Mr.. Ross was member today voted to
give the widow $1,000.

PrrTsBURe, Pa, Oct. 9.-The Tariff Com
mission met here this forenoon John NJ.
Stockdale, editor of the Wool Grower, spoke of
the solictude with which the farmers of Wash
ington county watched the progress of the
Commission and would await its report
Washington county, he said, produced more
wool on the same extent of territory than any
other part Of the United States, and to over
turn or to depress that interest now would be
almost equal to public calamity. The prices
of wool at present were insufficient to justify
continuance of the business, and yet the COM
petition from Australia with its cheap land
and its facilities for raising sheep was SO great
as to threaten destruction of the wool produc-
ing interest in Washington county. The
to afford the protection absolutely necessary
and he suggested that the wool which now
pays cents a pound shall pay cents, ar d
that all other wool shall pay l5 cents pound
and 20 per cent ad valorem.
