ROCK SPRINGS CHIN AMEN.
Probably Thirty Lives Lost and a Hum
dred Buildings Destroyed.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., September 3.-NeWs
from Rock Springs received this forenoon
indicates a worse state of affairs h was
reported last night. Every Chinaman, over
500 in number, has been driven out OF
town. Fifteen dead Cinnamon thus far
nave been discovered, and as many more
dead bodies are probably in the ruins.
Fifty houses belonging to the railroad COM
pany and fifty more owned by the China
men were burned. The Cinnamon are yet
in the hills west OF town, without food and
afraid to go to Green River City, distant
about ten miles. Governor Warren is 10Y
at Rock Springs with General Superinten-
dent Wilkinson and Superintendent Wur-
tele OF the Western division OF the Union
Pacific Railroad. No more disturbances
are anticipated. Food will be sent to the
starving Cinnamon in the hills by the au-
thOrities.
SIMPLY A MASSACRE.
San FRANCISCO, September 3.-Colonel
Bee, Chinese Consul, received the following
dispatch from Evanston, Wyoming, to-day
relative to the massacre OF Chinese at Rock
Springs: THE number Of Chinese killed out
right was eleven. There are a large number
of wounded still in the hills, many OF whom
will probably die. The Chinese dare not
60 out in search of them" The dispatch
concludes by stating that it was nothing
but a massacre OF defenseless people.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS.
CHEYENNE. Wyo., 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 largest
coal mining camp of the Union Pacific Rail
road is located, the movement is a 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
by like movements in the latter place and
Evanston. The Rock Springs miners,
however, took the initiative and the
result Dthere has been announced.
The mobs at that place locked the houses
Of the Chinese before setting fire to them.
The outrage commenced in mine No. 3,
where three Chinese miners were attacked
and killed. Then the riot commenced all
over town, even wonen joining with loaded
shotguns in their hands. Superintendent
Evans OF the coal mines was notified to
leave town, and he did SO with alacrity,
passing through here to-day en- route for
Omaha. Nothing can be heard from Car
bon. The operator there is evidently afraid
to send the news.
From Evanston the sheriff OF Uinta
county telegraphed this evening to Gov
ernor Warren as follows: "a large number
OF citizens, with myself, are satisfied that
the outrages committed at Rock Springs
will be repeated here, and are liable to
break out at any time. We need troops
to protect the lives and property OF our
citizens"
Governor Warren is at Green River, but
he has te~legraphed to the commanding Of
ticers at Forts Fred Steele and D. A. Russell
and troops are ordered to hold themselves
in readiness to move at a moments notice.

SILVER DOLLARS,
The Pla Now in Use to Increase Their
Circulation.

WASHINGTON, September g. Treasurer
Jordan said to-day that the policy adopted
by the Treasury Department to secure a
better circulation Of silver coin, is meeting
with gratifying success. During the month
OF August just ended there was paid out
from the different sub-treasuries $1,667,-
IA in standard dollars and $1,495, 9O2 in
fractional silver coin, which amounts were
largely in excess Of the issue Of silver during
the corresponding month last year. Jor-
dan says the withdrawal Of 81 and 81
notes from circulation was made necessary
by the rapid accumulation OF silver in the
s~ub-treasuries. It was expected in this
way to create a demand for silver coin.
That the plan was successful is shown by
the large output of silver during the past
month. So far no formal complaint or
protest against the withdrawal OF the 81
and 81 notes has been made. Applica-
tons have, however, been received for
large quantities of small notes. In each
case the answer has simply been made that
the issue of these notes has been suspended
the present. The Treasury officials ex-
press themselves as much encouraged by
by the present state OF finances and pre-
dict an improvement in the general bust
ness OF the country.

HANDLING PO7A10ES.

The English Farm and Home contains
column of advice on this subject TIL,
potato crop is of immense importanc,
in England, and great importance is at
tached to all the details of its manage
ment. The paper states that the great
est mistake in handling potatoes Is thai
of digging them in wet weather. A wei
potato will not turn out well. In heavy
land the soil will.not fall away from the
tubers unless they are perfectly dry.
Dirty potatoes do not dry easily, and I'M
less the dirt is rubbed off them before
storing, it is almost impossible to detect
blemishes or diseased spots !; consequent
ly bad potatoes are frequently stored
with good ones, causing decay. Dig as
many as possible during the forenoon.
Spread them out as far as possible. Col
lect in the afternoon, and, if possible,
get them under cover in a shed or store
house, where they can be spread out to
dry. In field cultivation the pillow is
often used in digging, but in smaller
patches the fork gives best satisfa elton.
Push the fork in behind each hill, and
then throw the whole forward take
hold of the vines and shake the tubers
away. Sort out the small and badly
shaped tubers on the ground. Keep
them away from the large and smooth
ones. Potatoes should never be put into
their winter quarters until they are
thoroughly dry. In England they are
dried in open sheds. and afterwards
stored in dark places where light and
air are admitted only in small quantities.
The drying should be quickly done, for
! long stand in the light will injure the
color and flavor.
