CHEYENNE, Wyo., Sept. ga telegram
from Rock Springs gives the latest that can
be obtained of the recent aDti-C Chinese troub-
les. All is quiet to-day and the
miners have returned to work. At
a meeting held last night, meas
ures were taken to put stop
to the drunken carousalS of few of their
number who have been celebrating the re-
moval of the Chinese. Two more dead
Celestials were found to-day, one in the
ruins of Chinatown and another beneath
the railroad bridge about mile
east The latter had been
wounded, and managed to walk that
far before he gave up. Your correspondent
talked with the miners to-day who took
an active part in the attack upon Chinatown
and was told that less than third of the
dead Chinese in the ruins of the house have
been found thus far. They say
that no less than twenty-five were
shot down inside the burning buildings.
These buildings had dirt roofs which cov-
cred up the dead Cinnamon when the dwell
ings succumbed to the flames, and as no
actual search has been made in the mines it
is quite probable that it is true.
Cinnamon are still arriving at
the stations east and west almost

and lack of blood. All are shipped to
Evanston by the company. They reiterate
the statement that many have died
in the hills from wounds received
in the attack upon them. 1t
is reported that the white miners at Alma,
in the western end of the territory, have
notified the Chinese laborers in these mines
that they must leave inside of three days,
and that the Union Pacific has guaranteed
their removal within the time specified. The
Celestials along the road refused to work
to-day, and demanded passes to Evanston.
Chinese laundrymen and servants at Green
River were told last night they must leave
within twelve hours, and they will go west
on to-day's express.

A ShreWd Sxxindle.

VINCENNEs, Ind, Sept. 5.-An investi-
CATION of the alleged townships trustees
swindle, as perpetrated in Davies county,
Indiana, twenty miles east of this city, re-
veals what appears to be the most astound-
ing official corruption. There are three
trustees involved, Charles A. Brown
OF Washington township, John
Grimsley of Steele township and John
Clarke OF Barr township. 1t is said the
trustees would issue longtime warrants on
their townships, drawing per cent. inter-
est. These warrants or orders are the same
as note made payable at the bank and on
their face show that they are executed by
the township trustees to the holder in con-
sideration of a certain amount of money
paid to the trustee for school
supplies. A trustee finds no trouble
in disposing Of these warrants. 1t is said
the three trustees mentioned have prac-
ticed this, and scores of these warrants
have been issued and put upon the market
and gobbled UP by money-lenders. The
township trustees are supposed to have gone
10 Canada. Some time will elapse before
the full extent of the losses will
be known. If the warrants are legal,
Davies county is ruined, and if not-and
the question is a fine point in law to be set
tied. The scores Of capitalists in Indianap-
oils, Coicago, st. Louis, Cincinnati and
throughout the middle states it is claimed
are out of pocket. 1t is estimated that war
rants on Washington township have been
issued to the amount of rs, 900. although
some claim twice that anis lil$, state town
ships $50, 600 and bar townships $50, 900.

engines himself. He was alone when he
fell, and it was only on the return of the
assistant that he was discovered. The

Little Tinlo for spoilsmen,

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Sept 5.-Secretary Mann
ing returned to the city last evening. 1t is
expected that the president will get here on
Monday. There is great anxiety manifested
among office-seekers now focking back to
Washington to ascertain what time the
president intends to devote to political call
ers after his return. Rumors have
been circulated to the effect that
the president think that six months
was about as much time as he
could sacrifice to the spoils-seekers and that
he will hereafter have to reduce the time
devoted to such callers to very small limits.
One report is that he will devote only
Tuesday in each week to place hunters.
Another is that he will only spare one hour
day. Still another that he will decline to
talk to the same man twice on the same
subject. Any Of these rules would carry
confusion into the hungry ranks. The men
who have come to Washington after places
wanted to see the president early and often
and think their success depends upon their
interviews

Custom, House Frauds.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 5.-When dele
cation of New York merchants called upon
President Cleveland relative to the appoint
ment of a collector of customs for the port
of New York he talked to them plainly
about the practice of undervaluation, which
has grown to such enormous proportions
that scarcely per cent. of invoice from
Europe is properly valued by the importer.
Since that time cOnsuls in England have
complained to the treasury department of
practice which prevails by which
some of the best known houses in Chicago,
New York, Boston and other large CONNER
clal cities defraud the revenue and prevent
honest dealers from entering the field in
competition with them. Under ruling of
Solicitor Risley in 1866 a number Of these
firms have been allowed to- purchase goods
in all the manufacturing towns Of England
and Scotland, and to ship them
to Manchester, Liverpool or Lon
don, where the invoice was
certified by the consul. Of course this
official could not properly comply with the
law, because he could not keep posted as to
the values in every town in the United
Kingdom. 1t will readily be seen that in
this practice merchants who have privi-
leges, under Solicitor Risley's ruling, can
easily defraud the customs collectors. Es-
pecially is this true when the importer does
an immense business. 1t is openly charged
that one of the best known
CHICAGO DRY GOODS HOUSES
purchases large quantities of Woolens, knit
goods, Isle thread garments and similar
wares in Bradford, Leeds, Dunfermline and
Glasgow at the same figures that smaller
house could buy the same goods for. They
are shipped to one of the seaports-usually
Manchester Or Liverpool-and the in
voice is made out from there.
The goods are valued at from
ten to thirty and forty per cent. below the
actual price paid. Of course under these
circumstances. it is impossible for small
importer in Buffalo Or any other interior
town to compete with Chicago or New
York firms. The complaint Of consuls
above quoted is said to have been correctly
discussed in the cabinet. Whether this
is true or not, it is known that
the government has decided to take radical
steps toward abating the abuse. Consuls
at principal points in the United Kingdom
will be instructed that after the 18th Of
October, they must certify to only
such invoices as are actually pur-
chased in their districts. ANY
violation of this order will lead
to dismissal at once. The proposed
course Of the government in this respect
will certainly result in decided falling off
in the number of under-valuations, and it
will doubtless lead to the breaking up of
the monopoly which few rich and un-
scrupulous firms have heretofore enjoyed
in the matter of importing foreign textile

last night sent to Secretary Turner the

Base Ball.
AT PHILADELPHIA.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 5.-The New
Yorks fielded miserably to-day, and well
deserved the defeat they received at the
hands of their Philadelphia club. They also
disgusted many of the Philadelphia admir-
ers by their trickery in the sixth inning,
done for the purpose of prolonging the
game. Their hope was that rain, which
was then falling lightly, would cause a
stoppage of the game, and throw the score
back to the fifth inning, giving them victory.
They did not gain their point. however as
the full six innings was completed before
the rain began to fall fast. 1t then began
to rain hard. but the New Workers would
not allow the game to be stopped. 1t was
also growing very dark. Philadel-
phia had completed its eighth inning
and New York had scored one, with one
put out and two men on bases, when the
farce was ended by the uapire calling the
game. it being so dark that the ball could
scarcely be seen passing from one player to
another. Deasley hurt his hand in the sixth
inning and Ewing caught the rest OF the
game. Dorgan and Myers made remarkable
one-hand catches, and the general play of
these two men was brilliant throughout the

Sentiment in Washington.


WASHINGTON, Sept Count Leyden,
the charge d'affairs OF the German legation,
said this afternoon that he thought the
strained relations between his government
and Spain would not result in an open rup-
ture, although such an event was of course
possible. When asked about the Caroline
islands incident, the count declined to dis
cuss it. Minister Volera is not in
town but one of his attaches said
that the advices received at the Spanish
legation were of the gloomiest description.
de added that hopes were still entertained
| that the differences between the two coun-
tries will be amicably adjusted. He begged
TO be excused from making any comment
upon the attitude of the two governments
in relation to the possession OF the Caroline
islands. At the legation the situation is
thought to be extremely critical. The rep
resentatives of both nations would not be
surprised if war was declared within very
few days.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Sept. Sit looks very
much now as though the next congress
would listen to loud knocks for admission
that are being heard from several territories.
Heretofore there has been hesitation on the
pArt of Democrats in agreeing to any plan
for admission of any territory because nearly
every or Of them applying had undoubted
Republican majorities. Now, however,
they are changed The newly appointed
governor of New Mexico has promised to
bring that territory in as Democratic
state, and as Washington Territory and
Montana have each Democratic representa-
tions in the house, it is reasonable to sup
pose the chances are in favor of them send
ing Democratic senators and representa-
tives in Case of admission. The recent
ceEsus of Dakota shows that it is useless to
hold out much longer against her demands
for admission, and that there are now two
probably Democratic territories knocking to
come in at the same time that Republican
Dakota wants to. 1t is probable that they
may be able to make themselves heard.
Bills, it is said, will be introduced at the
coming session of congress for the admis-
sion OF these territories as states.
