Negro Outbreak.

st. Lonis, October 29.-The Post
Despatch prints in a very late edition
a special from Austin, Texas, stating
that intense excitement prevailed there
all last night and to-day in consequence
of a telegram received by Governor
Ireland that 500 negroes were under
arms in the town of Gauze, Milan
county and an outbreak m%omentarily
expected and asking for immediate
help in view of these facts. The late
decision on the civil rights bill last is
creating a very bad feeling among the
negroes in various parts of the state
and outbreaks are looked for. Cover
nor Ireland Immediately issued a pro-
clamation calling the militia to arms.
Two companies were mustered here at
once and before midnight last night
over one thousand men at Austin
Houston, Galveston and other places
responded to the call and were ready to
march at a moments notice. These
troops we still awaiting orders at three
o'clock this afternoon. The precise
of the trouble at Gauze cannot
be ascertained but there seems to be
doubt that a disturbance of some
kind is in progress and Governor Ire
land ordered special military train to
be got in readiness for immediate use.

Fatal Collision.

Chicago, October 29.-The passenger
train bound north on the Pan Handle
road and the outgoing freight on the
Michigan Central railroad, collided this
morning at Joliet crossing, thirty miles

discovered she had a revolver in her
hand, and after a struggle she sue
ceeded in getting possession of the
weapon. She then went for assistance.
While gone the girl rushed up stairs,
and went into a closet followed by a
seamstress. The seamstress seized her
and ~endeavored to get the pistol, but as
Mabel was the strongest the seamstress
went for help. Mabel threw herself on
a bed and shot herself dead.

Destructive Cyclone.

New Orleans, October ga special
to the Times-D Democrat says: A cyclone
passed over Catahoula and Tensas par
ishes this meIning. The first place it
struck was James Bowman's plantation
on Tensas river. Three houses were
blown down and four negroes wounded.
Tue next place it struck vas d. d.
Miller's Highland plantation where one
house was lifted from its foundation
and carried about half a mile into the
woods, aud a negro church turned half
around. Tim. Thomas (colored) arm
was broken, his wife, another woman
and two children were badly hurt. The

Chinese Cases,

San Francisco, October 29.-Two
Chinese cases, to test the validity of
the Chinese government certificates,
were up to-day before Judge Hoffman
in the United States district court. He
pronounced them exceedingly embar-
raising. One of them was a Chinaman
who said he was a cigar manufacturer.
The Judge said congress used the word
"~merchant, =" not ''manufdcturer;'' that
if every Chinaman who made a few
cigars Or peddled matches vas to be
classified as a merchant the restriction
law would be practically a dead letter.
The second case was a boy II years of
age, whose certificate set forth that the
bearer was going to San Francisco to
manage the business interest of a mer-
camille firm, but whether he was a
laborer OF merchant it was difficult to
decide, so judgment was deferred.

ENLIGHTENMENT and SANDER.

Chicago, October 29.-On the 23d
instant D. b. Vermilye was arrested
here on the charge of embezzling 3d.
600 of the funds of the Weems Stone
company. At the same time General
VIM. Myers brought action for SANDER
against him for alleged statements to
the effect that Myers had been guilty of
indiscretions with his wife. Subse-
quently Vermilye made an explicit de-
NAL of the truth of these allegations,
and it was generally understood the
suits would be withdrawn and the mat
ter end. A special from st. Paul, how
ever, says Vermilye on Saturday filed
a bill for divorce, in which he alleges a
long continued and persistent criminal
intimacy between Mrs. Vermilye and
General Myers in st. Paul, Chicago,
New York, on the continent of Europe
and elsewhere.

American live stock is reported weak
in Liverpool, with best steers CON-
handing 144 cents and best sheep II
cents, estimated dressed weight.
Among the exports from Boston last
week we're 1,454 live cattle and 2,72s
quarters of beef. No exports of sheep
have been reported from Boston for
some weeks.
The Mark Lane Express says that
the daily press reports of the number Of
animals affected with foot-and-mouth
disease in the United Kingdom are
greatly exaggerated.
OF 1000 cattle required daily to sup
ply the meat canning trade of Chicago,
by far the greater part come from Tex
as. The magnitude of the canning
trade is not generally understood.
The great future competition this
country is likely to have in the produc-
tion of cheap cattle will come from
South America. The grazing
of that country are almost fabulous.
The secretary of the interior has ar
ranged to purchase 100, 900 head of cat
tie to be distributed among a few tribes
of Indians, which have made a success
of sheep raising. He believes that, with
a proper encouragement, they will be-
come successful herdsmen.
Chicago's biggest weeks in the re-
ceipts of cattle are becoming monotol =
Gus. But the heaviest of all is now TO
be reported. Last weeks receipts foot
ed up 52,652 head besides 629 calves,
over 80, 600 of the cattle being used in
Chicago. Where will this thing stopP
At a mass meeting at Coleman, Tex
as, where ranchmen and fe~nce-cutters
were both represented, it was agreed to
suspend the work of destroying inclos-
ures for fifteen days, in order to AN
vass the sentiment of the county, and
to fence no more pastures until the
special session of the legislature.
The bureau Of statistics shows that
the exports of fresh beef for September
1888, were l 1894, $50 pounds, valued at
1926, 102, as against 1927, 294 pounds,
