PARIS. August 25.-The French newspa-

uneasiness in French official circles, because

CONDITION OF THE UTEs.
The report of General Miles upon the con-
dltiOn OF the Southern Utes in Colorado
was received at the Interior Department
this morning and the Commissioner of In
dian Affairs Immediately instructed the
agent to secure supplies fer the Indians
The bureau officers say that the trouble
was caused by deficient appropriations for
the purchase of food supplies. The depart
ment has endeavored to distribute the
amount OF the appropriations throghout
the fiscal year, but to avert starvation
among the Indians it has been found neces-
sary to distribute more than the limited
amount set apart for each quarter, and to-
rely upon Congress to make good the def
cheney. In the case of the Southern lTtes
there is an interest fund that can be used
Tor the purchase of food when the regular
appropriation is exhausted. Supplies
amounting to 10000 pounds of beef and
5000 pounds OF flour will be issued weekly
to these Indians.

declared that even the ordinary collection
of revenue is obstructed by the demagog-
ism, which preceded the last election. Illicit
distilleries abound in the South, in the
belief that the Democratic rule meant free
whisky. While he believed that President

law, removals were made for purely
partisan purposes, mainly by the Post

THE BLOODY SHIRT
F'launted Before the Breeze in Ohio---
No Other Issued Raised by the
ex-senator.

Mr.. GILEAD, Ohio, August 26.-The Re-
publican campaign opened here to-day be-
fore large audience. Senator j ohm Sher-
man, in making the opening speech OF the
campaign, reviewed the career OF the Re
publican party and declared that the Dem
ocrats now concede the wisdom and sue
cess of all prominent Republican measures
and the merits Of the great leaders OF the
Republican party. He said that it might
he unkind, but it was natural to recall the
fact that these men, within thirty years,
had termed the Republican party a "Black
Abolition party" Lincoln an ''ape," Grant
hirelings." The Senator declared that by
the detection OF d comparatively few men
in three Republican States some OF the men
who conspired to overthrow the Govern
mcnt, waged war against it and were the
cause of the less of half Il million lives,
have been placed in the very seat OF power
they abandoned with scorn. The speaker
said he saw the Union flag floating at half
mast for Jacob Thompson, who was re-
garded as a defaulter and traitor. Two OF
the men who were in arms against the Gov
ernment now represent this country
abroad.
This STRANGE TURN OF EVENTS,
said the Senator, ''has but one example in
history and that was the restoration OF
Charles II, after brilliant, but brief pro-
tectorate OF Cromwell, and like that
restoration, is a reproach to the civiliza-
Administration had examined the books
and vaults and found every dollar Of the
public money on hand or accounted for.
The speaker declared that the Republican
party was not beaton by the Democrats,
but by the dissruntled Republicans OF three
States, who opposed the nominees OF the
Republican party and in the great State OF
New York "by narrow majority OF but
little more than one thousand defeated
Blaine and Logan 1t was not the want
OF merit in these two great leaders OF our
party" said the speaker, "but the dis
appointment of personal contests and
controversies over
TOO LONG A LEASE OF POWER.
He declared that even this detection
among the Republicans would have been
ineffective, but for the solid South, held to-
gether in political fellowship by crimes, vio-
lence and fraud, which if continued will as
surely renew the strife OF the civil war as
that the sun rolls around it's course. The
speaker declared that the negro OF the
South is openly deprived of his political
rights, and it was done as boldly as any
highway robbery. lie discussed thls tlues-
ton at great length and then turned to the
advocacy of protection as opposed to free
trade. He condemned the course OF Presi
dent Cleveland in pardonins Lieutenant
Mullen, i, member OF the Cincinnati police
fore, sentenced to one year for arresting
and incarcerating negro voters i'll Cincinnati
at the recent National election. He de-
Tended John Roach against the action OF
