A San Francisco dispatch says: A horrible
discovery was made in Chinatown Tuesday.
Information was given the city coroner that "A
frghtful stencil was being emitted from cellar
on Pacific street. He went to the cellar and
found the floor covered with human skulls and
bones partially covered with flesh in the last
stages of decomposition. In an inner room the
coroner found a number of Chinese engaged in
boiling down the remains of other bodies, while
several other Cinnamon were engaged in scrap
ing the boiled bones and packing them in boxes
for shipment TO China. 1t is estimated that
the cellar contained over 300 dead bodies, which
have been taken secretly from various ceme-
terieS throughout the State As an instance of
Chinese ingenuity it is stated that those in
charge of these operations, fearing that the
stencil from the boiling pots would he so great
as to attact attention outside, had procured two
living skunks, so that the odor of the latter
might overcome that of the former. The coro-
ner has taken charge of all the remains.

| MEXICAN WAR VETERANS.
| The Old Boys Have a Good Time at
indianapolis.

The National Mexican War Veterans Asso-
citation held its annual Reunion at Indianap-
oils last week. The report of the committee
on organization was as follows: For Pres, Gen.
James W. Denver, of Ohio; for V.-P., Gen.
Mahlon ID. Manson, Of Indiana; for Sec, Col.
A. Nj. Keneday, of Washington, d. c.; for
Treas, Capt. S. V. Niles, of Washington, d. c.;
for Marshal, Maj. S. l.. McFadden, of Indiana.
A long list of Vice-Presidents, two from each
State, the same as last year, wi th few eXcep-
tions was reported and the report was unani-
mously adopted. All the officers made brief
speeches, returning their thanks for the honor,
and pledging themselves to renewed efforts for
the cause in which they are all interested. A
resolution indOrSing Gen. Manson as q suitable
man to be appointed Pension Agent at Indian
apolis, in case the present incumbent be re-
moved, was adopted. The committee on rcso-
lutons made an extended report which was
adopted. Among the resolutions were the fol-
lowing:
Resolced, That we still hope that Congress, which
has hitherto failed to recognize the services Of the
soldiers. sailors, and marines of the Mexican war,
will at no distant day do justice TO them all by Civ
ing them such pension as BELTS their services, and
will save many of them from want and the suf-
ferng- born of want and disease, and cheer their
last days by the that they are wholly
forgotten by their country.
ReSoired, That whatever claims these veteran
survivors of the war with Mexico may have upon
their country, stand upon grounds so peculiar in
they originated as to fairly entite them TO the
sideration of Congress upon their own merits.
The President of the association was en-
powered to take charge of the resolutions con-
cerning pensions, and bring the subject matter
thereof to the attention of the President and
Congress at the earliest possible day.
Resolutions were also adopted indorsing the
Vidctte the association organ, and returning
thanks to the citizens of indianapolis.
la the evening the veterans sat down to n
banquet at the Grand Hotel. Vice President
Hendricks was among the speakers, and
responded to the toast "The President. the
Worthy Magistrate of the Republic" Mr.
Hendricks confined himself 10 detailing the
duties, powers, and responsibilities Of the Presi-
dent as laid down by the Constitution, and
concluded by saying: These enormous duties
powers. and responsibilities now rest upon Mr.
Cleveland, and it is the occasion of uuiversaJ
congratuation that he is strong enough and
brave enough to stand up steadily under them"

The Gre at Yacht Race.

The country was somewhat iBfamed last week
over the international race at New York between
the English yacht Genesta and the American
yacht Puritan. The course was 20 miles TO Sandy
Hook and return, and the terms were best two
in three. The Puritan took 1.-TWO straight
heats" The first was Oh Tuesday, with very
light breeze, efforts to start on three or four
previous days having been failures for lack of
wind. The Puritan won, but the Englishman
claimed that with a good breeze their boat
would outsail the American craft. The second
heat was on Thursday. There was spanking
breeze, the wind blowing nearly 40 miles an
hour. The race was close and exciting. but the
Puritan, though badly handled, crossed the line
some minutes ahead Of her English competitor
On Friday there was another race for the
Commodore's Cup, valued at $1,000. The &C.
nesta won this easily, against nine American
Yachts

Wheat Market in the Northwest.

A dispatch from st. Paul, Mimi, dated Sept.
16, says: So There has been steady and marked
Improvement in values in the local wheat
market during the past week. AS the season
progresses II becomes more apparent that farm
ers in the Northwest are in no hurry to sell
their wheat, but propose to wait aud take their
chances Of better market in the Spring
Receipts at Duluth have been very large, but
not quite up TO the figures of last year for the
same time. At Minneapolis the receipts are
much less than last year, and all indications
now point TO moderate deliveries for the next
month. unless the markets should materially
improve. The Millers' Association found that
it was not getting as much wheat as it wanted,
and was compelled to advance prices two and
three cents per bushel at country points, a thing
unusual at this season of the year. Continued
and very heavy rains during the week have
seriously interrupted tbrashing, and much of
the grain yet in shock is more or less injured
A heavy storm of wind on Thursday blew the
tops off of stacks, and was followed on Friday
night by one of the heaviest rains of the whole
season. IN some places stacks were standing
in water two feet deep, and there is no doubt
that the damage Will be considerable. The
situation in the -four market is unchanged.
Only fvc mills have been running during the
week, and the average daily outputhas not ex-
ceeded 10000 barrels. Prices are about where
they were a week ago, although some millers
report better inquiry for certain brands. The
foreign demand has improved slightly.

ARMY OF WEST VIRGINIA.
Large Reunion Held at Portsmouth.

The city of Portsmouth,, O., was gay with
banners last week. Her thronged streets re-
sounded to the tread of the old Army of West
Virginia. Rarely have more elaborate prepara-
tions been made or more hospitable welcome
extended to veterans of the late war
The three days program opened with a
procession perhaps the most extensive and COM
plete ever participated in by the people of
Portsmouth every branch Of trade being rep
resented. The early trains and boats brought
large numbers of people, and the city was filed
to overflowing. After dinner the crowd pro-
ceeded to the camp grounds, in the northeast
ern part of the city, and assembled in mann
moth tent, with seating capacity of 10000.
Among those occupying the platform were the
first commander of the Army of West Virginia,
Gen Il. f. Kelley, Gen. r. b. Hayes, Gen. W.
III. Enochs Maj. b. NJ Skinner, Gen. B. +.
Coates, Maj. Curtis, Gen. Buckley. Maj. J. w.
Longbon, and Mayor John A. Furley.
Gen. Coates called the meeting to order The
assembly arose and sang Praise God from whom
all blessings how" Prayer was offered by Rev.
j. c. Jackson, followed by music and an ad-
dress of welcome by Mayor Turney, Colonel
of the 9lst Ohio. In the absence of Gen.
Geo. Crook, Gen. Hayes responded. He paid
glowing tribute to Gen. Crook, whose un-
avoidable absence is universally regretted.
Gen. Hayes presided during the exercises. He
said that the Army of West Virginia had but
little written history compared with many
other societies. Its services were mainly in a
remote and mountainous country, where the
newspaper correspondent did not penetrate ;
but. nevertheless, the service performed was
not to be underratod. The guarding for long
time on the frontier and line of railroad for
supplies was no menial service. Many of the
troops from Ohio and Indiana had seen their
first service iii Virginia. In fact it would seem
as though it was a great military training
school for those who accomplished so much at
later period.
Speech making, feasting, and having good
time generally were kept up for three days
All present pronounced il the most successful
meeting ever held by the society. The follow
ing officers were elected for the ensuing year
