jay Eve See Injured.

KALAMAZOO, Mich, September 10
The day turned out a bad one for the at
tempt Of Jay Eye See to lower the record
and resulted in a temporary injury to the
horse, necessitating the cancelling of sue
ceediDg engagements. The afternoon was
cold and raw, with a strong wind. The
plan was to trot two slow heats to warm
him up, then one fast one.b but after the
first warming heat he had a nervous chill,
owing to which he was brought out to
complete the fast mile as soon as possible,
in order not to disappoint the expecta-
tons of the spectators. He made the
first quarter in "a. the half in los, the
three-quarters in l;44 and the mile in
2:20i. }. l.. Case is here in person and
orders subsequent engagements off as a
matter of prudence, the horse being i'll.
Phallas made two heats in 2:l9t and
2:l9t.

WASHINGTON, September l3.-At the
last session Of Congress a resolution was
passed authorizing the Secretary of the
Interior to return the Nez Perces indians,
now in Indian Territory. to their old home
in Idaho, and making Appropriation to
defny the expenses of removal. The De-
partment has been considering the expe-
diency Of making the removal and a CON
munration was sent to the agent at the
old Nez Perces reservation in Idaho, re-
questing his views upon the subject. To-
day the following answer was received.
Il do not consider it advisable to allow
Chief Joseph and those who took part in
the massacre to return. [ think the bal
ance could return with safety to them
without causing a disturbance on
the part of the settlers.

ON THE ROOF.
What Use Has Demonstrated to be the
Best Possible House Covering.

- coaAbAt AAohot &oftl nps
"
Numerous new buildings are constantly
being built in Cheyenne. Owners and
builders here, perhaps more ~noticeably
than in many places, keep abreast with
the times in methods and plans of build
ing, and certainly want, and usually get,
the best that can be had for their money.
For years it has been a mooted question
as to the best, cheapest and most service
able kind of a root to put on Il house;
whether shingles, tin, slate or the felt
gravel composition is, under circum-
stances of first cost and wear, the best.
Since the great fires in Chicago and
Boston the opinion Of builders, architects
and insurance men generally, has settled
down to the fact that, where its cost will
admit of its being used, the felt and
gravel o~omposition roofing is the best,
being the most enduring, and being nearer
absolutely fire proof than any other kind.
Seeing a large force Of workmen engaged
in tearing off the tin roofing from W. h.
Swan & Co. large workshop, a LEADER
reporter, who was looking up the roof
question, made inquiries from those
in charge why this was being done,
and was told by Mr.. Charles Fallon, VIII o
had the work in charge, that the tin WAS
to be replaced by a roof of felt and gravel
composition; hat the tin roof required
painting every year or SO; that even with
painting it frequently rusted through and
leaked; hat shingles would not he'd the
water of this locality; that the felt-gravel
roof when once on, needed no repairs for
at least five years, was absolutely water
and weather proof. and equally fire proof.
Mr.. Fallon, who has been Il practical
roofer Tor the past fourteen years. and has
helped roof many of the large buildings
in Chicago and u number in Cheyenne,
stated that he had found in his experience
that the felt-Sravel composition was the
cheapest roofing in matter of first cost,
aud subsequent expense that had
come under his observation.
He stated that after completing
the contract then under way with Messrs.
SwH & Co. he would take contracts for
similar work in this city and felt sure that
when the merits and ~cheapness of the
Felt-Gravel Composition Roofing became
mo re generally known, and its superiority
to other roofs in this peculiar climate es-
tablished, and the facts known that in
surance companies favored it, he would
have more contracts than he could well
fill. Mr.. Fallon, at present, has his office
with Mr.. futile, on Hill street, and as a
reliable authority on roofing he is a good
man for builders and prospective owners
to interview.

Notes From China.

PARIS, SeDtember l3.-A Tenips dis
patch from Hal Pong states hat the
health of the French troops in Tonquin is
excellent. Although the Winter has been
very severe, medical experts show that
only 10 per cent. of the force have been
sick.
The same paper says there is no pre-
sent intention on the part of the Govern
ment to send reinforcements to Tonauin
from France.
Foo CHOW, September 10. - The
French feet has left Matson where it has
been lying for some time past. The
Lieutenant of the British man-of-war
Seephyr, was wounded when the Chinese
fired on that vessel L few days ago, and is
in a dying condition. Kinpai fort to-day
fired on a telegraph launch.
PARIS, September 1.-THE Cabinet
Council held a meeting to-day in accord
anee with previous announcements for
discussion of the Chinese question. Prime
Minister Ferry distinctly confirmed the
report that China had not declared war.
Admiral Peyron, Minister of Marine,

which stated he would resume operations
as soon as he received reinforcements and
a fresh supply of provisions.

DENVER, September l3.-At l o'clock
this morning the Republican State Con
vention took a recess until 10. On re-
assembling the completed list of nomina-
tons were made as follows: II. A.
Spruance, Of Georgetown. Auditor; F. r.
Osbiston, B. f Cowell and 7. C. Gaudy,
Presidential Electors; W. c. Lothrop, of
Denver, Chairman of the State Central
committee. The committee on resolu-
tons reported as follows. That the Re
publicans of Colorado in convention as
sembled do affirm and approve Of the
platform of principles adopted by the
National Republican Convention, which
nominated the great orator and eminent
statesman of Maine and the most
illustrions citizen and soldier of
the Republic for President aud
Vice President, that the wool interest of
the country, now greatly depressed,
mainly by a reduction in the import duty
by the recent act of Congress, ought to be
fostered up by the proper legislation.
To that end we ask that the import duty
imposed by the act of 1867 on woods, be
restored at the earliest possible day.
Resotced further, That the southwest
ern portion OF the State is being devasta-
ted by bands Of rowing Indians and the
lives Of citizens are ieoDardized.
We therefore demand that our Repre-
sentatives in Congress use their utmost
endeavors to secure the removal of the
Southern Ute Indians from the State.
The report was adopted and the conven-
ton adjourned sine die.

LONDON. September l3.-The French
and Italian governments entered into ne
gotiations looking to Il revision Of the
treaty Of commerce. France asks for a
change Of the duties upon wines and
threatens, if it be not granted, to subject
Italy to extra duties upon cattle. The
Opmioae, Of Rome, expressing the senti-
ment of the government, proposes
no change and suggests that Italy can re
tlliate for the cattle duty by closing its
ports to French vessels and also by i'm
posing a duty of FIVE francs per pound
upon French ribbons.

INDIANAPOLIS, September l3.-In the
United States District Court to-day 4
motion for a rule on the plaintiff to an
swer the %interrogations in the Blaine Sen
hnel libel suit came up before Judge
Woods. The JAG &C stated in advance of
The argument that interrogatories had
long been prohibited in the practice ofthe
court in the United States Circuit Court
and while personally he should like to see
the rule changed, he would not take the
liberty to set it aside at this time, how
ever, if with this preliminary statement
the attorneys desired to argue the ques-
ton he would listen to them. Senator
Harrison stated that the inte1rtgations
would be answered. but when Mr.. Turpie
asked when, he declined to answer. The
argument then proceeded and at its con-
clusion Judge Woods declined to rule on
the motion. The action of the Judge
leaves it optional with Blainc's counsel as
to answering the iu~terrogatories.

was in attendance and at many points in
