receipt of sympathetic dispatches from
many friends in different parts Of the
country, and these have done much to
buoy him back to his normal condition
aud self-control. As yet Conkling has had
no word from his father or mother in
San Francisco, although they were the
first to be informed of what had hap
pened. In speaking of the reports that
had been published concerning his sister,
Conkling said to the reporter yesterday:
However little apology there may be to
offer for my sisters conduct, it ought to
be supposed that she is not naturally
wicked or vicious. As her brother, let
M say that she was always a good girl
until she met this man, and this was
the only diversion from the right path
that can be charged against her"

ST. PAUL, March 22.-Rev. ]. A. Gilfl-
Ian, the Protestant Episcopal missionary
of the White Earth Reservation, says:
While the extent Of the ravages among the
Indians by smallpox during the Winter
has been exaggerated, they have been quite
severe, and the sufferings have been notice
able. The Wiunegoshish Indians, and
those at Road Point, were the only bands
to suffer. Advices from the resident cler-
gyman give the total number of deaths at
Sc. The Pillager and other bands adopted
and vigorously enforced the most rigid
system of quarantine, which proved very
effective. Not one case outside of those
specified is reported. The disease is now
under complete control.
Swallowed Up ITS Last Rival.
HARTFORD, Conn, March 22.-The Cou-
rant says that immense corporation, the
Oregon Trans-C tine tai, has swallowed
up its last possible rival, the Oregon &
California. 1t is certainly a large mouth
full, its mileage equaling that of the New
York and New England, and New Haven
and Hartford systems combined, including
the Shore Line, Air Line, Canal and VAL
ley roads, etc. Such a monster has mon
strous responsibilities. Will the manag-
ers have the wisdom to develop with fair
ness and justice the vast interests of the
country it controls?
