Gov. DAVIS collocation of legal phrases and

ENGLISH srEREorYPED VICTORIES

/
Truth, of London, in commenting on the
| Queens book, refers to the battle of Tel el
Kebir. 1t says that the original telegram
sent by Sir Garnet Wolseley announced that,
"Arabi's strongly entrenched position was
most bravely and CALAMITY stormed by the
guards and line, the enemy completely rout-
ed and his loss has been very heavy. We
also regret to say we have suffered very Sc
verely. The Duke or Connaught is well,
and behaved bravely, leading his brigade to
the attack Thcrcupon Truth says that, in
asmuch as the guards did not storm the enc
my's entrenched position, and the English
did not suffer severely, and the Duke of
Connaught did not lead his brigade to the
attack, it wonders where Sir Garnet Wolseley
got his information.
After the same fashion may the people
wonder where Gen. Graham obtained his in
| formation concerning the battle of Teb The
official returns are almost Identical in terms
with those sent by Wolsely. There is slight
difference as to the men engaged, but in the
same way the English forces CALAMITY and
bravely stormed the enemy's entrenched po-
slIiOH. HIS lOSS was fCiy hS"'yt "H0 N'N
English suffered severely. One is almost led
to suspect that the English war department
keeps on hand printed blanks in which to
report the results of battles.
As Wolseley did not give single fact in
his report of the battle in which he was en-
gagged, suspicion is liable to occur that Ora
ham may be equally mistaken and that as a
report he has simply forwarded one of the
regular blank forms which always announce
an English victory with heavy loss to the
enemy and severe loss to the English. Peo-
pie anxious to get at all the facts in the case
will have to await the unofficial reports,
especially those from the other side.
It is announced this morning that Graham
has been ordered to advance no further but
meanwhile supposing it to be true that the
English have won another victory under the
cover of the guns of their iron-clads, what
will they to do with it: VIII they now at
tel pit to drive the prophet out of Soudan or
will they be content with keeping the fanatic
out OF Egypt properl If the latter will they
resort to protectorate or annexation, and If
either, what will France have to say about

IT is quite apparent that the Democratic
House of Representatives do not propose to
turn the treasury Of the United States over to
John Sherman and the Republican party to
be used as campaign fund. The said Sher-
man when he was at the head of the treasury
department was in the habit of giving two
offices and double salaries at the same time
to certain obsequious pets, who could most
effectively do his inscriptions, campaign
bidding. It has just come to light
that one Thompson, special
pet Of Sherman, was quartered on the
treasury, in possession of two offices, and
double salaries, and has been in the enjoy
ment of such position up TO the present
time. But President Arthur has just
bounced this double official leech, for cam
paign purposes Of his own, and because he
bears no good will towards Sherman or his
peculiar agents who aim to defeat the acting
Presidentin his struggles for nomination
at Chicago next June. The public will be
glad to have Republican dishonesty exposed
if even from selfish, personal views, in
stead Of impulses of patriotism.

Neff arrived at Mitchell's store on the 18th.
A party of dozen Navajo Indians came to
the store, and one drew gun on Edward
Mitchell. While the quarrel was
progress a Navajo named Rye
Lily commenced removing the buckskin
from his rifle and the other Indians ran for
their guns that were standing against the
store. Both Indians and whites then began
firing. After about twenty-five shots had
been exchanged, the Indians ret1eated across
the river, leaving one dead body on the
ground. None of the whites were hurt.
The whites then proceeded to throw up
fertilization while the women showed
great nerve carrying tubs of water to
supply them in case of siege. John
son then started for Fort Lewis and the

a Navajo came in and reported that the
UteS had killed all the whites at NIitchell's
place. So far no other word has been re
ceived, and johnson fears all the whites
have been massacred. 1t is not improbable
that the Utes went to the scene to

About W heat.

WASHINGTON, April 25.-The President
sent the Senate report from the Secretary
of State in reply to a resolution Of, tie SEN
ate requesting information as to the average
production, consumption, expectation and
importation of wheat, rye, corn and cotton
in foreign countries, their probable require
ments of such products from the United
States before crops the coming year arc
ready, and other information bearing on the
question of the demand for grain and cotton
products of the United States. The Secre-
tary in his report says: calculations
and estimates submitted prove, as far as
statistics can prove under the circumstances,
that the stock of wheat ON hand in Europe,
at the close of 1888 did not materially
differ from the stock on hand at the close of
the previous year; that the wants of Europe
are as imperative and as great as they were
in 1888, and that the demands upon the
United States should naturally be as great
as they were in 1883. How long Europe
may or can draw upon her reserve stock, or
what are the exact considerations which
control the several countries, especially the
United Kingdom, which may be said to
regulate the wheat market of the world,
time alone can develop"

BADLY BuNKoED.

An Illinois Banker Badly Fleeced by Denver
Bunko Men-He Returns to His Home
Only to be Overtaken Suddenly by Death.
PEORIA, ILL.,, April "a.
When Harvey Holman, an old citizen and
banker of Chillicothe, in this County, died
suddenly here last Sunday, on his return
from Denver, it was rumored that while
in that city he had fallen victim to the
bunko steerers. The amount of which he
had been defrauded was placed at several
hundred dollars. Yesterday it was ascer-
tanned that thesum was really 81, 200. Mr..
Holman had drawn checks for the sum,
and, as he supposed, saw them de-
stroyed. This pretended destruction
was simply to keep Mr.. Holman from
omplaining to the police. The checks
were sent on to Chillicothe, and the face
paid by Mr.. Holman's bank. Mr.. Hol-
man became aware of this when he
reached here, and it is probable the
distress and anxiety Of mind he expert
enced fastened his death. Mr.. Holman
was one of the Oldest and most highly re-
spected citizens of this county.

APRIL FOOLS.


The Late Goid Discovery u Colerado Ds-
ported 20 be = Greet Frssd.
DENvER, Coz, April 24.-From later de-
gelopments made there no longer exists any
doubt but that the alleged discoveries of gold
at Mount Pisgah, this State, which have set
the country a-fire with excitement, Is one of
the most colossal and best-planned frauds
ever perpetrated in mining country. Tele-
grams from there state that hundreds of
disappointed men are leaving the new dig
gings, never more to return. 1t has been
proven beyond doubt that the ground was
''salted." This has resulted in so many con-
ficting assays, and tests made from gravel
taken from the Teller shaft ran high in gold,
but samples of dirt taken from neighboring
points did not show even trace Of gold.
This created suspicion, but the sailing of the
mines could not be proven in time to head
of the rush of men who came pouring in
like mad from all the neighboring towns, in
some cases to such an extent that many
points in the mining districts were nearly
depopulated. The railroads were taxed to
carry the excited multitude travelling toward
the new Ell Dorado. For miles and miles
the country was taken up by the new COM
ers, all of whom were sanguine that it was
indeed the new Mecca which they had
struck. Few Of them were experienced In
placer mining, or for that matter in any
kind of mining, and were best described by
the ancient class name of "Hay Seeds"
Being unable to determine whether or not
the gravel contained the gold In a concealed
form they set about proving that it was free
and succeeded in completely doing so to
their own satisfaction, and to the satisfac-
ton of others who knew better, but who
were willing to believe anything that would
temporarily encourage them. By the pam
hing operation considerable black sand was
found. and this was interspersed with the yell
lOwish mica which is abundant in that re-
giOn. This collection was exhibited around
and to every fresh arrival as black sand and
gold dust, and the major portion of those who
saw it believed what they were told, but as
time passed and assays of the ore from all
portions Of the district proved It TO be worth
less, the suspicion of Sailing" grew in gen.
eral belief and now becomes an established
fact. The men who owned the Teller
claim seem to have been at the
bottom of 1T all. They were free with
samples of ore from their shaft but were
always careful to select the samples them
selves. These samples, when assayed, gave
big returns in gold, and these gave rise to
the excitement. At time when the Teller
shaft was not guarded, a party of Leadville
men descended the shaft and got out more
than score of samples for assay. Except
in one case not even trace of gold or any
other mineral was found. There is great
excitement, and the safety of the men guilty
of the ''saiting" process is feared, should
they fall into the hands of wrathful miners.
1t is thought the ground was sailed with
liquid chloride of gold.
