THE WYOMING TROUBLES.
United States Troops Protecting Chinese
Miners.

United States Troops Protecting Chinese
Miners.
Rock SPRINGS, w. T., September TO-
Notwithstanding the fact that the Union
Pacific announced few days ago that they
would no longer permit Beckwith, Quinn
& Company, coal contractors. to work Chi
namen in their mines, and would ship them
out of the country, sever hundred Cclestials
arrived at four o'clock yesterday afternoon
by four companies of troops, increasing the
force of soldiers at this point to six compa-
uies. The Cinnamon will be dOmiciled in
the freight house until their cabins are re-
built. The announcement was made last
night that the Chinese will 60 to work in
the mines this morning and that white men
would not be permitted to work any more.
The plan is to protect the Chinese with
troops until the white men are forced tn
leave town, when the troops can be with
drawn. No demonstration against the Ce-
lestials has been made as yet, but it is safe
to say that serious trouble will ensue as
soon as the opportunity affords. The
presence of 30 large body OF
soldiers will prevent any open act of vio-
lence, but the white miners assert that the
Chinese must 60 in spite of Uncle Sans
protection. Hundreds of rumors were afloat
last night regarding the plans, and soldiers
and citizens are in state of suppressed ex-
element, momentarily expecting an out
break of some sort. The Chinese quarters
have been surrounded by strong picket
line, and all the buildings belonging to
the company, Beckwith, Quinn 4 Co.'S store,
the powder magazine and the entrances to
the different mines are all under guard, as
it is said the miners have threatened to
blow them up. The situation is serious in
the extreme, and the feeling prevails every
where that on account of the bringing OF
Cinnamon back, the destruction of property
by fire and explosives is sure to follow, and
it Is not unlikely that a general strike may
ensue, as the employees all along the line OF
the road are in sympathy with the miners.

A TELEGRAM was recently sent from
Columbus, O.. saying that Mr.. Herbert
Tay. of that city. had been notified by
the War Department that he was the
youngest man enlisted in the Union
army in any of the States during the
rebellion. 1t was stated at the War
Department that no statement of the
nature mentioned had ever been made
by the department. and no information
on the subject has ever been compiled
from the records. The War Depart
ment officials say it would involve an
examination of the records Of nearly
three million men to enable the de-
partment TO make such q statement
with any degree of accuracy, and as
nothing would be gained to the public
service by the compilation of such in
formation. the probability is that the
question OF who was the youngest SOL
eisy vii! never b definitely settled.

Indians visited the Chicago Board of
Trade the other day, reaching the gal
lery few minutes before the close of
the afternoon session. Their appear
ance in fantastic combinations of garb
was greeted with shouts rivaling in
vigor their own war whoops. The en-
thusiasm so excited the red men that
on the spur of the moment a native
war dance was INDUCED in. Instantly
a most ludicrous scene was inaugur-
ated. there being given in the wheat
pit an imitation of the Indian dance,
into the spirit of which all the traders
joined. There was wild scene for
five minutes, and then the gong
sounded for the close and the Indians
filed from the gallery.

only significance of the recent cancel

denomination are practically worthless
as a circulating medium. The notes
destroyed were five hundred and one
thousand dollar certificates.

One OF the rarcsl. aud by many eonsid-
cred the most beautiful and attractive of
all furs, is that of the golden beaver.
Probably not one in ten thousand ever
saw the fur. and probably not one in ten
thousand could tell where it is obtained.
Lealers usually say that it comes from
Siberia, US that country is the home of
many of the choicest fur bearing animals,
and as many purchasers are ignorant
enough to pay an extra price for a fur
whose value they imagine to be increased
by its having come from so distant n
country-which is precisely the end
sought to be reached by the unprincipled
or ignorant dealers themselves.
Asa matter of fact. however. the golden
beaver fur comes from the Indian terri
tory. where a few of these animals are
occasionally found on certain little known
streams. A single pelt is worth from $2j
10 so. The fur is Of a peculiar. bright.
rich golden or honey color. 1t has an indie
scribably sunshiny appearance. as If its
delicate color were indeed derived from
imprisoned sun rays. and therefore IL
Illuminated from within rather than from
without Nothing is richer and more ele

rue NEW oRLnANs Exposition.

The people at large have never Justly
appreciated the importance of the New
Orleans exhibition All understand that
it must be of priceless advantage to the
South; but there are few who compre-
bend its immense value to the North.
Any enterprise that auickcns the strides
of progress in the South should be wei
coined and aided by the North as a com
mon benefit to all sections, but the New
Orleans exhibition offers peculiar advan-
tages to the great material interests of the
| North and West. The South has Just
raised one OF the largest crops of cotton,
sugar, rice. tobacco, corn and fruits ever
grown. Never before the war, in the
halcyon days of Southern wealth, have the
products of Southern industry equalcd the
products of the present year. Large as
were the crops of a year ago. they will this
year reach 500. 900. 900 more, and there
will be fully 500, 0OO, 900 more to be ex-
pended in Southern improvements than
were expended during any of the last
twenty years. The North is the natural
source of Southern improvements, and
the South is to-day the best market for
many of the products of Northern indus
try and ingenuity and the best customers
the North car seek in commerce and trade
are to be found in the South.
A few mad politicians in Northern cen
tiers of industry and trade still howl them
selves hoarse over the war that they dis
creetly avoided until its battles were
fought, but not only all financial, CONNER
cial and industrial circles absolutely con
denim appeals to sectional hate, but the
