brittle and easily torn in pieces.
The pieces are thrown into a churn
where the rubber is reduced to a
liquid. Passing to a second churn
and mixed with naphtha, it is ready
for use. The liquid rubber is poured
upon cloth, spread to the consistency
desired, laid out upon large tables in
the open air, the naphtha evaporates
and the rubber cloth is ready for
market, to be made into coats, gossa-
mers, etc.
In this connection, mention might
be made of the use of rubber in the
manufacture of paint. Your cores
pendent was shown through the Rub
Der Paint Works in Chicago, much
to his delight and interest. Rubber
makes the best of paint. Is flexible,
will not crack or chalk off, and is
waterproof. We painted church
with rubber paint about two years
ago and it has given good satisfac-
ton. 1t is glossy, heavy body and
durable. w. III. HOLMES.

THE FLOODS.

The water is receding rapidly at
Cincinnati at the rate of half an
inch an hour. Toledo was flooded
Saturday, but the water passed out
in the course of the night, after
sweeping away portions of the Penn
sylvania railroad bridge and Union
bridge. At New Albany, Ind, one
thousand families are dependent on
charity. All factories except one
are stopped. 1t will require several
months to rebuild factories and re-
sumo operations. Meantime the en-
ployees will have to be cared for.
One of the Mississippi levees above
Vicksburg has given way, and appre-
tensions are excited among the
planters. Letters and kilograms are
being received by members of the
congressional delegations at Wash
ington from Kentucky, Pennsylva-
mia, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, ask
ing congressional aid for the food
sufferers. The Indiana congressman
to man will oppose the giving OF
congressional aid to sufferers OF
states in which legislatures are in
session. They hold that Indiana and
the other states devastated by the
Ohio flood are abundantly able te
take care of their own people without
aid from the government, and they
maintain stoutly that their state shall
not be put in the attitude of a men
dicant.

The Case in q Nutshell,

FiOueeI Tsobb'
There Is one thing to be demon.
strated, If possible, In Iowa this fall,
and that Is that the republican party
can hold Its own at the polls against
the entanglement Of the prohibition
question. 1t Is very doubtful II 1t
can be done. The great stronghold
of the party, where at each presiden
tial election me ,rlties were rolled up
to 10000 and $4,000, Is breaking up
Into weak and disorganized factions.
Last fall but five out Of eleven dis.
trlcts were carried for the ropuoli-
cans, aud these five districts had an
aggregate majority of but 1890,
while tho six opposition districts had
16, ,O32 maj ority over the republicans,
or majority In the state of 4.742.
During the winter, with the discus
sion Of the prohibition question. the
opposition has gained steadily. Thus
It 10 that Gan. Weaver has hopes for
the successful Organization next yesl
of an anti-monopoly party which car

WASHINGTON, June Ia. NO COM
munication has been received at the
war department from General Crook,
asking for instructions 40 to the dispo-
sitiou of hts Indian prisoners, nor
have any instIuctlons yet been cent
him. Secretary Lincoln has an ap-
proprlation for the subsistence Of 800
Indians, which is available for the
care of these Iudians until some ar
rnngement shall have been made with
the interior department for their
final disposition. They will, there
fore, be held as prisoners OF war until
such time as the interior department
Is prepared to take charge of them.
Two considerations will have to be
weighed In determining where to put
them first, the Importance of lccst-
Ing them at such distance from the
Mexican border that they will be un-
able to repeat their periodical raids;
and second, to avoid bringing them In
contact with other tribes, who are now
we'll disposed and peaceable, but upon
whom they might exert an evil in
fluence, Secretary Teller's Views upon
the subject are expressed In the fol-
lowing circular:
INTERIOR DEPARTMENT.,

Hon. r. I, Lincoln, Secretary OF War:
SIR: I understand Gen. Crook will
soon return to the viciuity Of San Car
los agency with large number Of rem
egade Indians, who are guilty OF muir.
der, theft and other crimes. do not
think these Indians ought to be al
lowed to return to the agency. Such
I know has been the practice. There
can be no permanent peace If these
Indians are allowed to murder people,
steal their stock, and then nurrender
themselves and return to the agency
to be supported by the government. l
think the criminals should be held as
prisoners and punished for their
crimes. The children should be taken
from their parents and put to school.
think we can accept aud care for
children of school age. shall be
pleased to hearfrom you as to the num.
Der Of children, as soon as you receive
