BISMARCK, D. T., September 2.-Sitting
Bull arrived here last evening from Fort
Yates in company with several gentlemen
to exhibit the chief in the principal cities
in the East and in Europe. This enterprise

very greedy for money. His autograph he
sells at 81 copy, and has sold hundreds Of
them. He takes with him about 81 900

ponies, trappings, etc. He will be accom-
panied by his nephew, One Bull. The In

The Town Gaily Decorated in Honor of the
Veteran-A Big Amir.
CUMBERLAND, MD., September 2.-The
eighth annual reunion of the Army Of West
Virginia was begun here to-day and will be
continued for three days The city is crowd
ed with strangers from all parts of the
States of West Virginia, Maryland and
Ohio, while not few are from more distant
points. The city is dressed in holiday at
tire, not house lacking decorations of
some kind. At the foot of Mill street an
old eansl boat has been anchored in the
river, and a temporary bridge laid over
it to Camp Thoburn, on Hender-
sons island. The camp is named in honor
of Joseph Thoburn, and it is here that the
city and visiting military will light their
fires during the reunion. A number of
tents have. been erected, and their white
folds glistening in the sunlight against
background OF dark green hills reminds the
spectator forcibly of old war times. On the
corner of Harrison and Center streets a
large board wigwam with canvas roof has
been erected in which TO hold the reunion
servises: 1t has capacity for seating four
thousand persons and is deliberately deco
rated. The programme for the several
days embraces besides the meeting of the
society, numerous sports, concerts By
the bands, Nominations parades, &c.
To-day is the all-important one to the
good citizen, II being the occasion of the
trades display. The procession moved at
$50 a m, and was a creditable representa-.
hon of the varied industries and employ.
ments of Cumberland. All along the line
of march the sidewalks we're densely crowd
ed with people, who hustled each other
about good naturedly and the scrambling
for places where good view of the process
sion might be had, was at times ludicrous
Ex President and Mrs Hayes arrived last
night and are the guests of Hon. Lloyd
Lowndes, as is also the War Governor of
Virginia, Mr.. Pierpont General Crook,
the Indian fighter, reached here to-day and
will preside over the reunion services.

SALT LAKE, L. T., September 2.-Later
accounts locate the gold mines reported to
have been discovered four miles east OF
Missoula, on a high gravel bar opposite the
old Marshall grade, some distance from the
river. This is quite an extensive bar and
almost innumerable locations have been
made by Missoulans Gold is found from
the grassy roots down. One man got about
4 inches OF water turned on and washed out
several dollars in a short time The gold
is reported by some as very fine and of light
color, but only yields from 1 to 6 cents to
the pan, which would not be big pay. Water
was taken on the bar by ditch, but as
soon as turned on the loose dirt absorbed it
and the effort was abandoned. Parties are
now out with the. object of going to bedrock
and if the prospects Justify will bring in
ditch and put on a hydraulic. Cinnamon
have offered claim owners 81 per day per
man for the privilege Of putting Cinnamon

LITTLE Rock, September 2.-The cleo
ton yesterday will probably show the largest
vote ever cast in this State oy both Repub-
Gcau and Democratic parties. The mem
bers OF the Democratic State Committee
claim that their majority is from $4,000, as
shown at the election two years ago, to
nearly $4,000. The kilograms received,
while not giving any figures, show that
the Democrats polled an uu-
usually large vote all over the State.
n this county with the largest population
IN the state. the battle was hotly contested.
Closed Their Doors.
In this city some ofthe Democrats closed
their stores part of the dav and worked at
The polls. The excitement was high in
Eastman township. The Republicans en-
deavored to have the election place changed
to whar the Democrats called a negro dive,
but the Democrats compelled the removal
of the box TO the place designated b. the
election proclamation. Trouble is reported
in that township, but not of a serious char
acier. Ii is claimed that there was col
onizauon of negroes in that township and
the Big Rock precinct. While the returns
are not yet all in, enough is known to
cause belief that the entire Democratic
ticket will be elected. The Democratic
nominee for Sheriff was opposed by lnde
pendent and straight Republican candi-
dates thus dividing the vote and making
the election OF the Democrat a certainty.
A Close Vote.
LITTLE Rock, ARK, September 2.-To-
nights returns do not change the general
result Of the election already telegraphei
The vote in this (Pulaski) county, partially
counted. is very close. Republicans claim
small majority of the county officers, but
the claim is not admitted by the Democrats.

New YORK, September 2.-Ziepe Hur-
witz and her FIVE children arrived Saturday
on the steamer Wes,phalia and were tenn
porarily detained at Castle Garden until
the womans husband should arrive. Soon
after man made affidavit that he was
Moses Hurwitz. a Russian Pole, husband of
Ziepe and father of FIVE children. He said
that he had sent tickets for their passage
from Hamburg. He swore that he lived at
No. 1919 Division street, and earned between
Slj and $40 week, so that he was enabled
to support his wife and children, thus pre-
venting their becoming a burden to the
country. When he was taken to the interior
of the Garden Supt. Jackson was greatly
surprised, for at that moment Notary 0.
Henyman was drawing up the affidavit of
another man who gave the same name and
claimed 10 be the husband OF the same wO-
man.
The second claimant. who signed his
name in Hebrew said he was peddler liv-
ing at No Ludlow street, and he also de-
clared his ability to provide for Mrs. Hur-
WITT aud her five children. The Superln-
tendent was in a quandary as to how to de-
eide the very important and conflicting
claims He abandoned his first decision to
admit both Mr. HerwitzeS into the presence
Of the woman and children. The Ludlow
street Hurwitz aided him in his dilemma by
suggesting that bennett Bernstein, manu-
facturer of ladies underwear at No. II
Division street, be called upon to vouch for
the truth of his assertion. Bernstein was
accordingly summoned and, after identify
ing the peddler 10 be the person he said he
was, recognized the emigrant and her chill
dren as the peddler's wife and offspring,
The other Hurwitz was apparently satisfied
and left. while his namesake followed, &C
