Feminine Fools.

Special UO UIl0 OlOD6.
WASHINGTON, May 1O.-'sMiss Cleve-
land is the most persistently and thoroughly
advised woman in America" said a lady
from New York, who is well acquainted
with the mistress of the White house.
''She gets all immense number of letters
from every part of the country about every
blessed thing of which cranky woman can
think to write. One wants her to sternly
frown down the nefarious practice of per-
mitting Intoxicating liquors to be served at
the presidents table. Another mildly
assures her that society is looking upon the
presidents sister as the proper person to
institute a much needed reform in woman's
dress. An earnest lover of her sex
intimates that it would be well if the first
lady were to issue sort of court circular,
prescribing the costume regarded as most
fitting to be worn by women at presidential
receptions, and hints that she trusts the
good sense which has always characterized
Miss Cleveland will induce her to mark
with her disapproval the abomonation of
low neck dresses, which have been borrowed
from immoral and improper European
courts. The writer declares we should have
have some distinctively American fashions,
and that the position she occupies would
make it easy for Miss Cleye
land to introduce them. A woman
from a far western state says she has heard
that Miss Cleveland resembles very much
Miss Ellen Terry, especially in respect to
the cheveliere OF the two, and adds that as
the Bible teaches that the glory of a
woman is in her long hair, a compliance
with sacred injunctions would indicate that
her shorter locks should be allowed to grow.
l never dreamed there were so many fem
inine fools on earth as seems to have been
developed since Miss Cleveland entered the
presidential mansion with herbrother."

against thirty of the Oklahoma settlers
Gen. Weaver represented to the attorney
general that the colOnists had Obeyed the
proclamation of President Cleveland, that
they practically disbanded, that they had
adopted a resolution complimentary to the
president, hadn't shown recent disposition
to enter upon the lands, and that the in
dictmentS looked like persecution. He
suggested, moreover, that if the government
thought it necessary to pursue the case in
the courts, it would be advisable to select
some one of the persons indicted, make a
test case, give it speedy hearing in the
lower court as soon as possible, bring it to
the United States supreme court on appeal,
and have it advanced on the docket, SO that
the whole Oklahoma question could be
speedily submitted to judicial decision.
The attorney general answered in substance
that he knew nothing personally about the
indictments reported to have been found;
that he understood some had been found;
that the district attorney had not made any
report to him, but that he was expecting
one daily. He, under the circum-
stances, was inclined to think that
it would not be just to the settlers
or wise for the government to pursue the
settlers with these indictments. He re-
garded the suggestion Of Gen. Weaver, that
a test case should be made to be brought to
the United States supreme court for ju-
dicial settlement as an excellent one, and
he added that he would, as attorney gen.
eral, make the proper motion in the SUI
preme court when the case arrived here to
give it an advanced position ON the docket.
Gen. Weaver has written to Capt. Couch to
this effect, and if Capt. Couch is one of the
persons indicted in this last batch it is
probable that his case will be made test.

Col. Crooks interviewed.

Col Crooks, one of the heroes of the Min
nesota Indian wars and judge of the military
commission that condemned 500 Sioux to
death, SO of whom were hanged at Mankato
shortly after the massacre there, was inter-
viewed by GLOBE reporter this evening
as to the outlook for a general Indian up
rising in the Northwest territories, because
of his familiarity with Indian character.
He says Middleton must achieve decisive
victory. All the Indians will have on their
war-paint in week. Should the breeds
achieve signal victory over Middleton the
result could be but most disaSterous. He
said the best plan of attack, from this dis
tance of observation, would be to weaken
the ranks by shot, scatter the breeds by
shell from the front and flank, have Truin
fall in upon the rear with his 800 mounted
police, force the enemy into disorder,
mass them, if possible, then rake
them with the Gatling, rifles, shot and
shell until disordered, then storm their
works. This would doubtless cost many
good lives, as the enemy are nervy and fine
shots, being trained hunters, but the end to
be attained is so desirable and necessary
that the troops must be sacrificed. Other
wise the whole country would be swept by
savages who are liable to go on the war
path ON the principle of throwing their
lives away, in which case they would spare
no woman or child.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 10.-A confidential
friend of the Grant family tells us some
thing of the plan suggested by Senator
Leland Stanford Of California through
which the younger Grants are to resume the
broker and banking business in New York
and San Francisco this fall. The difficulty
was to cOntrive some means to prevent their
capital from falling into the hands OF the
Ward IL Grant creditors and thus being
swallowed up. After much consultation OF
lawyers. a device has been framed that will
prevent this, and allow these young men to
earn an honest living without any fear that
they may be compelled to pay swindler's
debts. Their experience, says that gentle
man, has been of so terrible character that
all foolishness is knocked completely out OF
them, and they will be more than pleased If
they can earn 50, 600 or S., 900 year. The
GLOBE correspondent has reason to believe
that Cleveland will appoint Fred Grant
either an assistant quartermaSter or COM
missary in the army when the next vacancy
occurs, and further, that MI. Conkling and
other friends of Gen. Grant either have
asked or will ask this much of a Democratic
president. ''Bucl' Grant has been able to-
live pretty well since the failure. because OF
his wife's fortune, which is her own and
could not be touched for her husbands
debts. But Fred has really been poor, and
but for his brother-in-law, Potter Palmer
of Chicago, and one or two other friends,
he would have known positive want. He
desires above all things to go back into the
army, and recalls his regimental and cadet
ship experience as the happiest days he has
ever known. Gen. Sherman says the au-
thority above named has been very anxious
for the son of his old friend and will aid in
any necessary way to have him appointed,
as will many other old officers of the army,
without regard to political prediction.

Just from, the Front.

John McLane of Bismarck arrived in ST.
Paul last night, fresh from Winnipeg,
whittier he had gone recently to deliver
horses and supplies to the Canadian gov
eminent. He said Winnipeg was wild when
he left over the prospective engagement
between Middleton's troops and Riel; that
it was the general opinion of the old-timers
that Middleton would be worSted or that
the rebels would escape, and general fear
expressed that the result would
not be decisive and that
general Indian uprising might
result Old-timers especially regarded the
result at BatocheS as the turning point in
the Northwestern complication. Supplies,
he said, were short, the country west of
Winnipeg utterly incapable of supporting
an army and supplies from near the bound
ary line on this side running short from the
unexpected and extraordinary demand made
by the eXigencieS which confronted
the Canadian government. The
best advised men about Winnipeg, he
said, regarded Riel as crank, but
believed that there was some master mind
back of the movement. The theory is also
entertained there that men from New York,
Boston and Chicago will be found in Riel's
comp or among his followers. There are
believed to be 1, 500 half-breedS under arms
at various points. and of Indians some 5000
warriors who could be got ints the field on
short notice in the event of failure to sup
press Riel now. To meet these there are
only about 4,200 troops, inexperienced in
that kind of warfare and without knowl-
edge of the country. Yes, the situation is
serious and everything depends on the re-
suit of Middleton's movements against Riel.

that she is safe. The sound apparently
comes from point two or three miles down
the river. Early in the morning crowds of
women, children and mounted men were
seen hurrying into the brush on the other
side of the river. The weather has been
warm and bright all day.
$3.50 p. ma body of rebels just opened
fire from the bluff, near the ravine ON our
left front, evidently on our skirmishers.
They have fired three volleys, but are shoot
ing too high to reach us. The Winnipeg
battery resuming are shelling the houses in
the distance, where large number OF
rebels are gathered. A second shell crashes
through the first house and the rebels rush
out. Another shell blows the roof off a
house beyond. AS the dispatches leave,
scattered firing is going on. We expect to
clean out the rebels tomorrow and cOmmu-
nicate with the boat later.

Work of Masked Rohh.rs.

OswEGo, N. Y, May 1O.- Early Satur-
day night two masked men entered the
house of F. S. Thrall in this city, during
the absence of Mr.. and Mrs. Thrall at
church. A daughter aged II years had
just put younger sister to bed and sat
at the piano playing. When the
two men appeared in the room, one of
them with drawn knife seized her and
under penalty of death commanded silence
but said she would not be harmed if she did
not make an outcry. He then cut off her
hair and clothing, saying he wanted to be
revenged on her father. They took some
articles of silverware and left the house
without the child being further harmed.

Bayard's Boys.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 1O.-Mr. Ewing, the
extremely youthful gentleman from Mis-.
souri, who has just been appointed consul
general to the City of Mexico, is a brother
in-law Of Senator COckrell. The senator
has another brother-in-law in the govern
ment employ, and for some time after he
left the medical college son of the senator
was employed under the surgeon general of
the army. In 1874 Senator Coclkrell opened
the governorship campaign in Missouri with
a speech, good part of which was devoted
to denunciation of President Grants nepot-
ism. The new consul general to Mexico is
only "a years old.
Mr.. Straub of Tennessee appointed con-
sui at st. Gale, Switzerland, is himself a
Swiss. Senator Bayard went into the state
department with the opinion, for which
very good reasons can be given, that a nat
uralized citizen ought not to be sent as con-
sui to the the land of his nativity. He
seems to have changed his views, for he has
sent two Germans to Germany, an italian
to Italy, Bohemian to Bohemia and a
Swiss to Switzerland.

Cuba Wants Freedom.

Cubans had been in Washington for several
days endeavoring to interest senators and
representatives in scheme for the purchase

Beraja, one of the representative Cubans in

anxious for the United States to buy Cuba.
''The reason is" Mr.. Beraja continued,
''that the Cubans are fighting. There are

they will obtain their freedom. Before fall

The New Catholic University.


WASHINGTON, May 1o.--The councifcf
Catholic prelates who met in Baltimore Inst
week for the purpose of selecting place
for the new Catholic university, decided 1T
shall be built in this city. Although the
Catholics Of other cities offered very large
monetary inducements for securing the
university, the fact that Washington
possesses the national museum, the
congressional library and other advantages,
and is fast becoming a literary and scien-
tific center, caused the prelates to decide in
favor of locating the university at the capi-
tai. Rev. DR.. Chapelle of st. Matthew'S
church, who was selected as one of the
trustees, and who was among the foremost
to urge the claims Of Washington to the
university, made short appeal to his con-
gregation to contribute at least $50, 600 to
endow chair in the university.

THE STATUE OF LIBERTY

TO Rise by Energetic and Successful
Efforts of the World.
Special to the Globe.
NEW YORK, May 1O.-Senator Evarts,
chairman of the Bartholdi pedestal fund, is
advised that portions of the statue Of Lib
erty Enlightening the World will be shipped
for America Monday next and that the rest
will be started about a week later. The
pedestal will not be ready much before the
middle of the summer and would not be
then were it not for the
strangely successful efforts of the
New York World to raise the $1OO, 900 re-
quired to complete the work. The Worlds
fund amounts to about $45, 900. We have
no desire to belittle Editor Pulitizer's
achievement, said member of the COM
mittee, for it's big thing; but it does illus
trate the general desire of the people to
see their names in print. 1t was said
last winter that the needed money could
easily be raised by a popular subscription.
All we were to do, according to this sage adj
vice, was to send duly accredited canvassers
through the stores, workshops and offices
with instructions to explain that gifts Of a
dime to dollar were especially requested.
A corps of these solicitors were engaged,
provided with credentials and with neat
certificates to give the donors. They were
a week at the job and didn't take enough
to cover their moderate salaries. The
scheme was a dead failure. The masses
positively didn't care rap whether the
statue stood on pedestal or on its
head. Now the World is appealing to
the same classes with the same arguments,
and see how the money has came in. will
tell you the simple reason. The name Of
every giver is published in the paper. Thus
a man or child may be glorified to that ex-
tent at so small a cost as 10 cents. The
average amount given, excluding the big
returns from performances and a few rich
men, is less than so cents per individual.
That is cheap qualification of vanity
surely. This speciality of the Worlds has
proved most profitable thing from
a business point of view. 1t is
true that three or four columns of space
has to be filed every day with the
matter and that the expenses of circu-
lating blanks, handling letters, and so ON,
are pretty heavy, but experts calculate that
the resulting gain in circulation is greater
than was ever before got by single jour-
nalistic feat. The. theory is that each of
the nearly $4,000 contributors bought a
copy of the paper to see his name in type,
and then that a good proportion of them
having had their attention thus for the first
time attracted to the World, became regular
readers. The shrewdness of the move is
the talk of the newspaper community.

WESTERN UNIONS REVENGE.
1t Proposes to Send Out st. Louis
Quotations.

QUOTATIONS.
Special to the Globe.
ST. LOUIS, May 10.-It is freely stated
among grain men here that an arrange
ment has been proposed by which the
Western Union company is to distribute
over the country ST. Louis market quota
tions and give them precedence on the
wires to Chicago reports. 1t appears,
however, that while this matter has been
discussed on change by number Of the
members nothing has yet been done to put
the matter into shape. No proposition has
been made by either the exchange or the
Western Union Telegraph company,
although it is understood that
there has been an exchange of views upon
the subject. E. II. Brown of the Western
Union Telegraph company said in an inter-
view: ''The matter is still in embryo. The
Western Union under certain circumstances
will take out and forward st. Louss quota
tions to it's customers throughout the coun-
try. 1t will not discontinue the Chicago
quotations, but will will give them to any
customer who wants them, just as hereto
fore" ''But you will give the st. Louis
market reports precedence?" swell,
we will try to get them out
as quickly as possible. VI course,
under circumstances, we would do all in
our power to make the service from ST.
Louis to best possible. The Chicago board
of trade has decided not to permit the
bucket-shops of the country to have it's
quotations. When customer Of ours de-
sires the Chicago quotations, his name must
be submitted to committee of the Chicago
board, and if there is no objection he is
permitted to get the figures. If the COM
mittee decides adversely the applicant cam
not get the quotations. Of course we want
to serve our customers, but think
the ST. Louis exchange is afraid
of Chicago. The impression seems to pre-
vail that if St. Louis figures are issued gem
orally throughout the country to any one
who wants them, that the Chicago board Of
trade will cut off st. Louis from its quota
tions, and this many st. Louis merchants
believe would be a misfortune. We could
get a quotation here every three minutes
and that would be enough to trade on. In
times of excitement we would want more.
The Western Union stands ready to do its
share, but if st. Louis acts in unison with
Chicago, that settles the matter"
