Close OF the walking Match.

New York, Dec. 31.-The six days
walking match closed tonight at ten
O'Clock. Fitzgerald coming in first
with a record of 5s2 miles and 90 yards,
beating the best previous record THAT
of Robt. Vent, 57S, in May, 1881 by
four miles and a few yards.
The race between Noremac and
Herty for second place, was exciting,
but the former passed Herty at 8
O'Clock and led him to the finish.
Herty's feet were in a terrible condi-
ton. and it was a wonder he was able
to keep on the track. The records of
the men were unusually good, and are
as follows:
Fitzgerald, 582 miles and SO yards;
Noremac, 565 miles and 1886 yards;
Herty, 55G miles and 275 yards; Krohne,
500 miles and 1896 yards, and Lacouse,
sol miles and 275 yards. These men
to-day made respectively: Fitzgerald
go miles; Krohne, SO; Noremac, 80;
Aerty, 55, and Lacouse, At. Fitzger-
aid will receive about $4,000 and a sill
yer trophy, for beating the best record;
Noremac, $500; Herty, $500; Krohne,
5000; and Lacouse, 500. Rowell has
made a match with Vint and Panchot,
for a six days contest go-as-you-please,
open for all, for 81 900 entrance fee.
The date Of the match has not been set
tied.

New York, Dec. 31.-The total num-
Der Of business failures for the entire
year 1881 throughout the United States
is stated by the Mercantile Agency of
R. G. Dun &c Co., to be 5,5s2, involv-
ing liabilities of slightly over eighty-one
millions. The failures for the year
previous were only Abs, with liabili-
tiles of sixty-fve millions. The in
crease is, however, regarded by the
agency as small in proportion to the
enormous growth in the volume of trade
and especially in proportion to the
number of persons engaged in BUSH
ness compared with 1878. The show
ing is strongly to the advantage Of the
year just closed, the failures in that
year being 0,400. and the liabilities
two hundred and tbirty-four millions.
In 'S1 only M person in every 148 en-
gagged in business has failed, while in
80 the proportion was one in every
1853; in '79 n in every los, and '7S one
in every 65. The figures of the year
and the facts presented are interpreted
by the agency as con6rmatory of the
impression that the trade Of the coun-
try is prosperous and in a safe condi-
ton.
Chicago, Dec. 30.-The produce trade
of Chicago during the year Just closing
has been active, especially in the specu-
lative department. The arrivals have
not been SO large as during 1880, but as
a decrease has occurred in all the prin-
cipal markets this was to be expected.
The unreasonable summer weather ten
ded to decrease the production of the
principal cereals, and the low prices Of
the early part Of the year discouraged
seeding.

All are familiar with the published
pictures Of the assassin, but the pen
picture by Watterson, of the Louisville
OouTier-Journal, will give an addition
appreciation to this mornings report of
the trial: His manner is of a piece with
his matter. Crisp and nervous 1t is,
undoubtedly, but yet considered. He
knows infinitely what he is about. His
profile in repose is very like the picture
Of Carlyle in Harper's edition, or "Au-
photography" His voice reminds me
more of the voice Of the late Gen. For
rect than of any one else 1 can recall
sharp, querulous, but not unmusical.
He does it we'll. Every syllable he ut
tiers can be distinctly heard, though
sometimes he growls and bites his
words. In short, IN the character he
has set himself, he is altogether
unique.

sharpe Remarks Upon Poiygnmy

New York, Dec. 31.-A World report
err interviewed Bishop Sharpe, of Utah,
now here, who said: ~ always have
understood that Garfield did not desire
to rip up the whole past, but was re-
solved that polygamy should be sup
pressed for the future. Arthur, to
judge by his ut~terances, is determined
to carry out the program inaugu-
rated by his predecessor. Polygamy is
a very difficult problem to solve. 1
cannot conceive what the government
proposes to do with cases of polygamous
marriages, where contracted before or
since '62. Their abrogation would be
an obvious injustice and would result
in misery untold. l do not anticipate
that congress will act rashly or unad-
yisedly, and our people express no fears
of any such action. IL would be hard
to say what will be the result should
the government act ind~iscreetly. Our
people are peace-loving and law-abid-
ing, but they are not to be trodden
upon with impunity."
The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1882-01-01

A shadow of mystery has been thrown
about the arrest tonight by Pinkerton
detectives of two men, Louis Otto and
VIM. Polk, who are locked up away
from the reach Of the reporters, in the
police station. 1t is given out that a
fraud of 800, 900 is involved, and that
several other parties yet to be arr ested,
are behind 1t. Sedulous efforts we're
made to keep the matter from publica-
ton.
The nun Der Of newspapers in the
world is "a. 1876, and their circulation Is
put at 10000 ,0O0. 900. or these Europe
has 1887; North America, 2 400;
Asia, US; South America, 500; Aus
tralia, 661, and Africa, 1872. Sixteen
thousand five hundred are printed in
the English language, 1850 in German,
$3.50 in French, and l,600 in Spanish i.
The aggregate circulation in the United
States is 5000 00, 900, as compared
with 2,60c, 900 900 in Great Britain and
Ireland.
A Philadelphia dispatch says: The
statements of the anthracite coal trade
for the year, 80 far as they have been
compiled. show that the total produce
ton for the year will reach about 2S,-
500, 900 tons. There nay be a weeks
suspension in January, but after that
1t is thought the demand will be such
as to make steady work imperative.
Thirty million tons is the amount cal
culated upon as the production of the
year 1892, and with this in view pre-
parations are being actively pursued In
all the anthracite producing regions.

Scoville attempted to get the witness
to confess that conversations and o
duct were the chief mea of deter
mining sanity or insanity.
Witness held that it was only an in
cident, and not an ESSENTIAL element.
Guiteau interpo sed, that the experts
on this case wanted TO kill a man and
examine his brain to determine on his
sanity afterwards.
Witness said that he had seen some
40 cases of feigned insanity. Prisoner
was feigning insanity.
The afternoon passed YEARLY, the
counsel for the prosecution devoted
themselves masnly to the preparation
and arrangements Of the points for the
forthcoming arguments.
Finally the hour for adjournment
having arrived, Guiteau, who has been
listlessly following the proceedings
called out-To-morrow will be new
years 1882, 1 shall receive tomorrow in
jail and shall be happy to see all who
a succeed in getting in. l wish
everyone a happy new year. ComeSco-
vile it is three O'Clock let US go home.
Court adjourned until Tuesday.

New York, Dec. 31.-The Times
thus summarizes and comments upon
n of its specials: "While no honest
man desires to see the invasion of In
dian territory, or would force upon the
tribes occupying that secluded. section,
the opening of their couDGry ia indis-
criminate settlement, it, must be adj
mitted that the incidehts of the late
concession to the railroad company of
right of way across the territory,
reveal an anomalous condition of
things. In this case, the railroad COM
pany will ask for the use of a strip of
land 200 feet wide, with an additional
strip at points where stations are to be
built. To secure this right, it was
necessary that the government Of the
United States should send an envoy to
the Choctaw nation, and ask it, as a
favor, from the Choctaw government.
After some delay and much opposition,
tie latter, probably intensified by i'm
portunities of rival corporations, right
of way was granted. The railroad
company pays rent 20 the Choctaw ma
ton. This may seem like a great con-
cession, but the narrow tract occupied
by the railway, is like a tunnel through
the Indian territory. This tunnel, so
to speak, is 200 feet wide. The citi-
zen of the United States, who goes be-
yond the line, takes his life in his
hand. To all intents and purposes, he
is more remote from the protection of
his government than he would be if he
were cast away on the coast of Siberia.
The Indian territory is a little empire
by ITSELF"

killed his mother-in'laS, Sarah A.
Smith, wounded his Swear old daugh-

New York Custom House Returns.

New York, Dec. 30.-The business
Of the custom house the past year ac-
cording to the annual report, has been
larger than eyer before. The direct
exports amounted in value to SO, SAB,
600, of which 81, LAS, 900 were carried
in American vessels. Duties were col
lected to the amount Of So, 928, 319 on
imported goods, the foreign invoice
value of which was 7,244 ,ol5. The
business of the custom house has been
doubled in four years, yet there has

has been very little more than before.

Springfield, Ills, Dec. 31.-The wood

Another Exodus ImmInent.

Washington, Dec. 31.-The South
Carolina politicians now here are con-
siderably disturbed over the informa-
tien from Charleston that an exodus
fever has broken out among the colored
plantation hands, and that already
several thousand have made arrange
ments to go to Arkansas. So general
has the movement become that it is
feared there will be an almost total
loss Of the crops in three or four coun-
ties next year.

New York, Dec. 31.-Jay Gould will
assume the presidency of the Wabash

evening he had resigned believing that
the interest of the property would be
promoted by the assumption of Its ex-

should continue to be a director and a
member of the executive committee and
that there was no truth In the reports
of a disagreement between Gould and
himself.
