Insurance Decision.

Des Moines, November 2l.-Judg-
ment was rendered by Judge Sheras, of
the United States circuit court, against
the stockholders of the Lamar Insur-
ance company, of Chicago. The case
has been in litigation since the great
FIRE of 1871. The case was brought to
compel the stockholders of the defunct
company who had not paid up their
stock in full to reimburse parties in
sured for losses at that time. The de-
Tense WAS that the Lamar company had
transferred their business to the People
Insurance company of San Francisco,
thus %exempting them from further liza
bility. The losses amounted to $780,
600, Of which the people company paid
in the neighborhood of S400, 900, and
the court holds that the original stock
holders Of the Lamar company are liza
BILE for the full amount necessary to
reimburse the compliments. This only
affects the stockholders WHO had not
paid up for stock in full. The court
also issues a decree for the collection Of
the claims, about 500, 600, and inter-
ests and costs.

San Francisco, November Gloon.
gressmen Guenther and Deuster, of
Wisconsin, left this afternoon for the
east. During their visit here they have
been investigating the Chinese ques-
tion, both having voted in favor of the

viewed by an associated press reporter
in regard to the speakership fight, but

jokingly, that like Tully, of California,
he wanted to be on the winning side.
He spoke kindly of Carlisle.

The DanvlIIe Riots.

Danville, Va, November 2l.-The
committee of forty appointed to inves-
tigate the facts connected with the
riots of the Sd, organized on the 18th
instant and appointed the proper sub
committees. All persons having infor-
matian in relation to the matters to be
investigated publicly were requested
to appear before the subcommittee and
testify. The subcommittee regularly
attended to the duties from the morn
ing of the 18th to the evening of the
2lst, during which time thirty-seven
witnesses were examined. The said
witnesses for the most part are known
to the committee personally, and repre-.
sented all classes and vocations. They
are intelligent and thoroughly reliable.
The committee makes a careful and i'm
partial review of all the facts connect
with the riot. After speaking of the
III feeling existing between the blacks
and whites, the committee state that
the negroes were the aggressors. The
report adds: Two days before election
circulars, signed by prominent citizens
and leaders of both political parties,
were issued guaranteeing every person,
without regard to color or party, free
and undisturbed right of voting. No
violence, threat, or intimidation was
shown towards the negro or coalition
voters, but on the contrary such voters
we're repeatedly assured by the citizens,
police and military officers sent to. Dam
vile by the governor, that they would
be protected in the right to vote as
they chose. Election day was quiet,
without any disturbance or difficulty in
any precinct or elsewhere in the town
and the election itself was honestly con-
Quoted.

WASHINGTON NEWS.

Washington, November 21.-The
Chinese minister, in behalf of his gov
eminent. delivered a letterto Secretary
Frelinghuysen, relative to AMMAN.
The following extract gives the spirit
Of the communication:
IF France desires to maintain her
friendly relations with China, why
should we not discuss the matter ami
cablyp If she insists npon invading
the northern part of Annam, where
our troops are stationed, it will indi-
cate that she has determined to break
the friendly tie, and our troops there
cannot remain with folded arms, but
must meet them in the field. We
therefore send this communication to
all foreign powers, to show that an
even friendly tie is being broken, and
that the cause of the rupture does not
come from China"

cen.estlna the Edmunds Law.

Salt Lake, November 21.-In an in
terview to-day with David Bockholdt,
the county clerk of this county and a
four-ply polygamist, he announced that
he would not relinquish his office, and
that the election held last August un-
der the auspices of The commission, at
which his successor, among others, was
chosen, was a mere farce, to which he
should pay no attention. A large
number of other polygamist officers are
holding over in the same way, in disre-
gard of the election. Their theory is
that the Edmunds, law is unconstitu-
tional and the action of the commits
sion under it invalid, and since the
newly elected mormons are committed
to the same view, and will not bring
suits to GUST the polygamists, the latter
seem to have the best of the situation.

Steamer Sunk.

Hancock, Mich. November 21.-It
is feared that the steamer Manistee,
plying between this port and Duluth,
has sunk with her crew and twenty. five
passengers on board. She left Bayfield,
at midnight On the 18th inst. for On
tonagan on her way to this port, and
has not been heard from since. The
steamers Duluth and China lett Bay
field an hour and q half after the Man
istee for the same point, but did not see
her yesterday. A tug was sent to find
the Manistee, and returned to-day
bringing a bucket marked Manistee and
a portion Of the pilot house. The boat
being old and heavily loaded, and the
sea very rough, it is feared she has
foundered. Two tugs have been crpbs-
ing for her the last three days. A tel
egram was received this morning stat
ing that one of the tugs had found a
part of the cabin, washed ashore some
distance above Ontonagon.

Washington Territory.

1t was in 1853 that congress cut off
Washington territory from that of Ore
gon and gave it an existence separate
and apart from that territory. 1t is
$50 miles long from east to west and
200 miles wide from north to south and
has an area of 20, 900 square miles. Its
present population is over 100, 900.
About two thirds of the land is suscep-
tible of cultivation and about 20, 1000, 900
acres are covered with forest timber,
much of it of II superior quality. The
leading interests of the territory are
numbering, stock raising, farming, SAL
mon fishing and commerce along the
sound. In the northwestern part of
the territory immense forests of the
Douglass pine grow, many of the trees
being 300 feet in height and from FIVE
to ten feet in diameter. The average
rainfall of the territory is from 40 to go
inches. The territory will in time be-
come a fruit growing country, as the
climate is well adapted to it. Game is
plentiful in the mountains and prairie
chickens abound on the prairies. Coal
is scarce, copper, lead, iron and lime
stone are in considerable quantities in
places. Building stone is scarce in
eastern Washington. We think in time
stock raising will be the leading inter
est, as those rolling lands will produce
blue grass equal to the great blue grass
regions of Kentucky, and the low river
bottoms or ravines afford winter pro-
lection. Western Correspondent.

prOat realized from this crop: that while the
great mass of cotton growers have barely eked
out a pOOr living, and only that by rea.on OF ths

favorable climate. yet in no other department Of

The Mexican Finsncier In discussing the
proposed worlds cotton centennial expedition
intended IN be held in some city Of the United
States in 1854 says that the project affords Mex.
leo an opportunity such as is seldom offered 1t
adds that there is scarcely state In the repub-
lie In which there are not large tracts of land
adapted 10 cotton culture, and that Mexican
cotton il known abroad as being particularly
hne in color and Of an extremely soft and ,ilky
tbre which renders IL suitable for fine machin-
cry. The Fiuancisr believes that with ordinary
effort Mexico, instead of importing her raw cot.
ton, as at present, al enormous expense, could
readily become a large exporter, Native
growers, it continues, should show their conf.
dence in this matter and should take immediate
steps to give practical demonstration of its feast
6ility, They should first help themselves and
then il would be question OF only a shot Tina
when foreign capital would be s6undautly OF
