oming, few days ago and some II or
12 stolen horses also were captured.

least a prominent figure in the band of
horse-thieves who have been making
their headquarters at Jackson's Hole in
the Teton mountains, Wyoming. Their
criminal operations were very extensive
and covered great area of Idaho. Mon
tana and Wyoming. Since the arrest OF
their leader the gang has dispersed but
horses with brands obliterated or chang
ed are being found in the vicinity of
their rendezvous.

Pioneer Press Washington special:
Secretary Lamar has given notice to a
strong syndicate of eastern and western
capitalists that upon their showing
their plans of organization and the out
lines of the improvements they propose
to make, he will grant them new lease
of hotel privileges in the Yellowstone
National Park. The lease given Rufus
Hatch's defunct hotel company has gone
the way Of the company itself. The
new syndicate comprises Charles
Gibson and John d. Perry of st. Louis;
c. B. Wright and J. G. Bullet of Phila-
delphia; Frederick Billings, former
president of the Northern Pacific, j. c.
Casey of Minneapolis and d. Caring
ton Of Toledo. All of them are very
rich business men, and none of them
are without a practical sense of what
the public demands in a summer resort.
The new company has no connection
with the Neutrality-suspicious. ven
ture, and the big caravansary built by
that concern will not be taken off their
hands br the new company. The plans
have been drawn for six pretty and
thoroughly convenient hotels, sufficient
ly large to accommodate the present
and prospective tourist patronage of the
park. These hotels will be erected at
Mammoth Hot Springs, Norris Geyser
Basin, Upper Geyser Basin, Grand Can
yon, Tower Falls and the Yellowstone
Lake. The syndicate will build steam
er for pleasuring on the lake, and will
see that ample stage facilities are pro-
vided for transit to all parts of the park
They will also erect telephone lines cov-
ering all parts of the Park.
Omaha telegram: Lieut.. Kingman
says that there is no danger of congress
again considering the old scheme of cut
ting off the northern section of the Park,
comprising 100000 acres, and deciding
the same to the Cooke City Railway
company, but is of the opinion that an
attempt will be made to secure right OF
way for the railway through that part
of the Park. He expresses the opinion
that it would be unwise policy to allow
any railroad to enter the confines of the
Park, as it would be an opening wedge
for others to follow.

Interstate Commerce.

The recent decision of the supreme
court of the United States in the Mich
igan drummer case has an important
bearing upon the commercial rights of
the states. Although the case arose un-
der descriminative law, intended to
discourage the whisky traffic, the points
made by the supreme court apply with
equal force to the sale of any class Of
merchandise by any other means. The
case upon which the decision was rem
dered is briefly stated as follows: "An
agent for liquor house in Chicago was
proceeded against before a Michigan
court because he had been pushing the
business of his house in Michigan with
out paying the tax of $500 imposed by
the act of 1875. This tax is laid upon
all persons who shall solicit or take Or
ders for the sale of spurious or intoxi-
eating liquors to citizens or residents OF
Michigan, to be shipped to the state or
furnished at wholesale by nonresident
parties, as the law reads. The offending
drummer, being arraigned before local
court, was fined; appealing to the cir
cult court his penalty was confirmed by
jury, and taking the case up to the
supreme court of Michigan the findings
of the lower courts were all sustained.
The decisions rendered by the upper
courts in Michigan was uniformly adj
verse to the defendant, and the justices
were unanimous. The United States
supreme court, however, reverses the
state decisions and finds for the defend
ant, on the theory that the Michigan
law is opposed to the provisions of the
federal constitution, which reserve
wholly to congress the power to regu-
late commerce between the states; that
it was also unconstitutional because it
operates in effect to impose duties upon
imports, and because it interferes with
the privileges of the citizens of other
states, secured under the clause Of the
constitution which guarantees the citi-
zens of each state all the privileges and
immunities of citizens of other states.
1t appears as if this decision must
also apply to the drummers' license im-.
posed in Montana.

Large Sale of Northern Pacific Lands.

Large Sale of Northern Pacific Lands.
1t is learned that the sale of Northern
Pacific lands lately negotiated comprises
several townships in northwestern
Minnesota, amounting in all to about
113,OOO acres. The amount realized by
the company will depend upon the grad
ing of the timber lands, but it is esti-
mated that 81 per acre will be netted, or
a total of about 100000. the purchase
money being part cash and the balance,
$5OOyOOO, is preferred stock. This will
retire from circulation forever over five
thousand shares of that stock. The
purchasers are number of capitalists
headed by Charles Watrous, formerly of
California. The sale is supposed to be
brought about by Senator Sabin OF Min
nesota, who is a member of the pur-
chasing syndicate. A great body of the
lands is heavily timbered. 1t is the in
tention of the new owners to begin the
manufacture of lumber on large scale
at once. Watrous has been in the lum-
Der business in New York several years.
He was once well known in political
life in California.

Euiogy of Grant Drives "a Church Mem
ber Crazy with Frenzy.

YORK, PA, Aug. 31.-A decided sensa-
tion was created in Winterstown, this
county, yesterday, by j. II. r. Fulton, a
well-Known resident of the village. Rev.
J. f. shultz, of Shrewsbury, pastor of the
circuit embracing the Wintertown Evan
gelical church, sometime ago announced
that yesterday he would preach a Grant
memorial sermon. Mr.. Fulton gave no.
tlce that such sermon should not be
preached in that church. But little at
tention was paid TO his threat, and on
Sunday Rev. Mr. Shutz announced his
text, and proceeded with his sermon,
enumerating the great men Of ancient and
modern times. Mr.. Fulton sat quietly
until Gen. Grants name was mentioned,
when he sprang to his feet, brandishlng
his arms, and cried to the minister "St0p

KNOCKED DOWN IN HIS PULPIT.
The preacher continued his discourse
and Mr.. Fulton advanced up the aisle.
Great confusion prevailed, which reached
crisis, when the angry member sprang
into the pulpit and violently assaulted
the minister, knocking him down. A
rush was made by the congregation to de-
fend the pastor, and in the melee one man
received blow from MIR. Fulton's fist and
another had his clothing badly torn.
Order was finally restored and the sermon
finished. Mr.. Fulton will probably be
prosecuted. 1t is said that he has left the
place. His action has aroused great in
dignatlon.

Charleston's Commerce Increasing in
Every Branch.
CHARLESTON. S. O., Aug. 31.-TO-mor-
row the Ne0S and Courier will publish a
26-columu review of the trade and indus
tries OF Charleston tor the commercial
year, ending to-day. The report shows
20 per cent. increase in the receipts of cot
ton, and also an increase in the foreign
trade. The wholesale trade is over $20,-
200, being a considerable increase
over that OF last year and Is due
to the extension OF business
into other States. The phosphate and
fertilizer statistics show that the value Of
fertilizers manufactured in Charleston
was nearly $4,000, 900, and the value of
phosphate rock mined in and around the
city was over $2,500.000. The total busi-
ness OF the port was nearly SOS, ,000.-
600, being an increase of over
S3,000,0OO over last year. The crop reports
for the coming year are highly favorable,
despite the caterpillar and drought. The
new crop OF upland cotton is estimated at
$50 900 bales. The crop of sea island
cotton will be cut off nearly one-halt by
the great storm and worm. The esti-
mated corn crops over II, 100000 bushels,
the largest ever known, ThAstone Of the
