The Wor,t Not Vet Told.

CHEYENNE, Wy. T., September 3.-The
worst has evidently not been told regard
ing the anti-Chinese riots in the western
part of Wyoming. According to advices
from Evanston, where the second larges
coal.mining camp of the Union Pacific
road is located, the movement is precon-
certed one. 1t had been arranged that the
first attack upon the Chinese was to be
made in Carbon, a mining town about
$50 miles east of Rock Springs,
to be followed be like movements in the
latter place and at Evanston. The Rock
Springs miners, however, took the initia-
tive. The mob at that place hooted the
Chinamen's houses before setting fire to
them. The outbreak commenced in mine
No. 6, where three Chinese miners were
attacked and xii ed. Then the riot COM
menced all over town, even women join
ing, with loaded sho'guns in their hands.
Supt. Evans Of the Cove mine has been
warned to leave town, and he did
so with alacrity, passing through
here to-day en- route for Omaha. Nothing
can be heard from Carbon. The telegraph
operator there is evidently afraid TO send
news from Evanston. The sheriff of U u
tab county telee raphed this evening to
Gov. Warren as follows: ga large num-
Der of ctzens, with myself are
satisfied that the outrages comm tied
and are liable TO break out at any time.
We need troops to prot ct the lives and
property of our citizens" Gov. Warren il
at Green river, but he has teegraphed to
the commanding officers at Forts Steel and
d. A. Russell, and troops are ordered to
hold themselves in readiness to march at
a moments notice.

THE Bohemians have for some time
been advocating national autonomy, the
establishment of a national bank and the
coronation at Prague of the Emperor OF
Austria as King Of Bohemia. They have
also revived their ancient literature and
advocated the use of their Czech language
on official occasions. This has excited the
ire of the Vienna press, who recently, ac.
cording to the correspondent Of the Lon
don Tisaee, administered severe lecture
to Herr Czerny, the Mayor of Prague, for
his Nationalist speech in the Czech tongue
at the enthronement of Archbishop Schon.
born. They excuse the archbishop for
having spoken in Czech, because the
mayor set the exam. ls; but they remind
Herr Czerny that German is the official
language of Austria, and that he had nc
business, on public Occasion, to speak in
any other tongue. The ut.erancea OF the
Presse must be noticed, because it is Count
Tssfte's organ, and one may gather from
what this paper says that the Austrian
Prime Minister is beginning to be lAtle
inpatient if not uneasy, at the demands
of the Czechs."

KNIGHTS OF LABOR.
Organization Of the Grand Assembiy
of exas.
The Farmers linton in Harmony with
the Movement.

GALVESTON, Ten, September "a spe-
cIal tn the NelCs t ON Dal as. Ter saws:
The Knights of Labor to-day perfected the
org4niEation OF the Grand Assembly bv
ell citing full set of officers, with Henry
Goiden ul Galveston as Master Workman.
1t became known during ihe day that the
Assembly was waited on bv a committee
oil nVe from the Farmers Union, headed
by President Buniap, with a proposition
to tuse with the latter, which was ac-
cepted. A comparison of notes showed
that the Knights of Labor only oreaniztd d
IN lex last March, having since in
creased their membership TO 6 most 10. 600
while the Farmers Un on had member
ship of nearly $4,000 in Texas, with the
prospect OF contro ling eighty per. cent. of
the farmers within two yeara The har-
mony existing between agriculture and
labor is said to have been proved by a
proposition from the farmers to b.ck the
knights of Labor with as much ss $4,000
a week If necessary to the successful CON
duct OF strike. The fusion rests on the
understanding that parties and politicians
are to be ignored in united effort to save
labor and production, by snbordination
OF corporations and destruction of syndi-
Gates, rings, corners and other aids to the
accumulation of reat wealth. All classes
are admissible to membership except
oaI Ikers, lawyers, ,saloon-keepers, gamblers
and professional politicians 1t is claimed
by the delegates that the aim of the
assembly is not to promote strikes, but to
prevent them by arbitration, to which end
a committee with controlling powers over
local assemblies, will be created; where
the work of srbitrators appointed from the
opposing interests is not satisfaC tory, dis
interest," d parties are to be called on,
whose decisions must be accepted. But
should corporations refuse their consent
| to arbitrate, then strikes may be inaugu-
rated. Leading members of the organiza-
ton say there will be no fusion with
either the Prohibitionists or anti-Prohibi-
| tionists, and that the rapid growth of the

THE COT1ON CROP.
The Monthly Report of the National
Exchange.

NEW ORLEANS, La, September 3.-The
monthly report of the National Cotton
Exchange says of the growing crop: For
the first time this season reports show a
deterioration in the crop prospects, but
shedding has been 30 prevalent during the
greater portion of August that. excepting
Virginia and Florida, no State has held it's
former rating. Rust and worms have also
done some harm. Bottom lands complain
of excessive rains, and cessation thereof
would do much to@ard bringing these
sections up. Drouth has been the trouble
on the uplands and throughout the greater
part of Texas, but in the latter State par
ticularly, timely showers have fallen quite
recently in many localities, and prospects
have accordingly frightened in the dis
tricts 80 favored. Labor as a rule is suffi-
cient and working well. Taken Alto
gether, the crop has met with reverse, but
favoring seasons from now on, with
a late freeze, would go far toward
compensation. For the reasons above
stated the percentage has been reduced
from 81 at the end of July to 81 now. Ap-
pended are the State average; Virginia,
81; North Carolina, 90; South Carolina,
| SO; Georgia, "a; Florids, go; Alabama,

The Overland Mosthly for September
contains an account of the two famous
Congresses that preceded the war, by the
Hon. S. S. Cox, United States Minister to
to Turkey. Mr.. Cox is now preparing a
book of his personal "reminiscences, called
Three Decades Of Federal Legisldti9n; and
this sketch is from material which will
afterwards appear, in slightly different
form, in the book. The personnel and mo-
tive of these two Congresses, the attitude
OF the different branches of the Demo
cratic party toward the Southern war
question, together with Senator Cox's own
experience, make up a most important
chapter. We make an extract in anoth er
column embracing the opinion of the
genial Min lster to Turkey as to Mr.. Jeffer-
son Davi SIS position as the leading states
man in those two Congresses. From this
1t will be seen that he is both tair and just
to '.he leader of the South during the most
Tying period of its history.
