ably. The latter has made good judge,

Indians Routed.

Tombstone, A. T., October 25.-W.
H. Stuart, who returned here from
Swisshelm mountains, says the Apaches
have been routed by Mexican troops
with great slaughter. The troops had
been stationed to prevent the retreat of
the savages into the Sierra Madras.
The Indians then turned and fled to-
ward AriZ ma, closely followed by the
Mexicans. who overlook them at the
extreme end of the Swisshelms, where
a running fight ensued. The Mexican
commander stated that if his troops
had not been completely worn out by
lighting and forced marches, he would
have driven the red devils ON the San
Carlos reservation himself. Stuart
said that a large body of the routed
Indians passed his ranch. They were
poorly clad and fully one-third were
without firearms.

%Swltchmen's Strike.

Kansas City, October 20. -This af-
ternoon the railroad switchmen began
to quit work and before night most of
them had gone out. The Missouri Pa
cific and Wabash men were the first to
quit work. The strikers then went
to the other roads and persuaded most
of the other men to quit work. The
passenger trains left as usual, but
nothing is being done In the freight
yards, the few remaining being afraid
to work at night. The officials preserve
a firm front, and refuse to grant the
advance, maintain that if the police
are sufficient to prevent intimidation,
they car go on in a day or two and OBJ
viate the blockade. The men ask that
switchmen helpers be paid s65 a montt
instead of 50 per day; that the foreman
receive SO per month and that thu
working month exclude Sunday.

Peaceful Austria.

Vienna, October 25.-The emperor
received the Australian and Hungarian
delegations to-day. He declared the
relations of Austria and the foreign
nations were entirely satisfactory, and
that the people of all countries strongly
felt the need of peace. Austria's efforts
had ever been directed to that end, as
peace enabled the government to give
increased attention to material affairs
of the country. While the reforms in
the army would require additional ex-
pense, he hoped the tranquilization of
alien Bozuia and Herzegovina would
lead to the reduction of the army occu-
by ing these provinces.

Heavy Failure.

Chicago, October %. Eddy, Harvey
& Co., wholesale dealers in hats and
furs, made a voluntary assignment to-
day. Liabilities about $4,000, 900. No
estimate on assets obtainable yet.
Their debts are due chiefly in New
York. The immediate cause Of the
failure is understood to be the matur-
ing of paper in that city which the firm
was unable to meet. Contributory
causes, dull trade and sharp competi-
ton. 1t is stated there are nc preferred
creditors. The firm is one of the Oldest
and best known in their line of BUSH
ness and was highly rated by the COM
mercial agencies. They were in straiahts
a year ago, but took in special partners
with $3.50, 900 capital and added a boot
and shoe department. The failure was
therefore unlocked for.
