The period of forty days fixed by the president in his proclamation ordering the removal of the cattle ranches from the Cheyenne and Arapahoe agency in the In- dian territory expired on Tuesday. The secretary of the interior has received ad- vices from the territory indicating the pur- pose of the ranchers to comply with the terms of the proclamation to the best of their ability; and thousands of head of cattle are now on foot for other states and territories. It is not believed that the ser vices of the military will be required to complete the evacuation of the territories. An impression is said to prevail among the cattlemen that the order of the president of August 14th, calling for the removal of all fences upon public lands will not be enforced It is stated at the department that this order will be enforced to the let ter and with the full force of the military if necessary.

A strange disease is raging with frightful effect at Clay Court House, w. Va., in the region along the valley of Sycamore creek, heretofore an exceptionally healthy part oi the state. It is confined chiefly to chil- dren, who are attacked and die in few hours, seemingly paralyzed with pain. The symptoms seem to indicate another outbreak of the malady which ravished the western counties of West Virginia last summer, by which several hundred per- sons lost their lives.
 On Monday afternoon the authorities of Portland, Me-, worked several hours talk ing out the most remarkable trap discov- cred since the prohibitory law went into effect A lead pipe was followed for 13S feet over 8 public way. This pipe was laid in cement the entire distance, and was found several inches under ground. In following up the pipe the police damaged buildings to considerable extent.

MosT of the cotton and woolen factories of New England will run through the win ter, and the prospect for the poor of this section is better than year ago.

 More than one hundred business men met in Providence on Monday to consider the question asked in circular recently sent out by Secretary Manning concerning revision of the tariff. The following resolution was adopted
 Whereas, The industries of Rhode Island have been subjected to long period of de- pression, severely taxing the resources of both the manufacturers and their employees, con- mercial confidence having been universally impaired; and whereas, although there are indications of of more hopeful state of af- fairs, all industrial entersprises are still ill a condition of extreme sensitiveness: and where as, the honorable secretary of the treasury has addressed to many of us circular letter which seems to contemplated plan of gener- al tariff revision at te coming session of con- gress; and whereas we believe that any such attempted general revision of the tariff would be exceeding disastrous to the entire industri- al interests of the country; therefore Resolved, That this meeting hereby enters it's respectful protest against any re opening of the tariff agitation at the coming session ot congress.

HeadqaI tiers Of the Various Lines Com

II is pleasing to notice upon the part
of the city authorities determined
effort to keep up the sanitary work.
We see some of the worst nuisances
and of long standing, being abated.
The old filth hole ON what is known as
the old post Office block is now being
drained with vitrified clay pipe and
when that is completed, the whole sur
face of the ground will be covered with
new soil and gravel. This work will
beH finished by Tuesday next. The
old an irrepressible pool OF stagnant
water near the corner OF Jel-
ferson street, on Elm street,
is undergoing draining process by
running pipe to Pacific avenue and
then filing the excavation up to tie
level of the drain pibe. There are
other stagnant water nuisances in the
CITY, and these will receive the atten-
ton of the health officer and police Of
ficers this week. The heavy rainfall
has caused the sewer system to be OBJ
structed during the last month in many
places, but by Tonight the whole sewer
system of the city will DO III good
working order. This ~ the most i'm
portau sanitary work OF the city and
ought to be- extended as rapidly
as possible so as to relieve the entire
community ofthe swfnl and ur'ver-
sal neces iary known as tho common
priyY. These common privies are
fnnumere BILE almost and are now be-
ing cleaned as rapidly as Mr.. Hay
wood, the city scavenger, can do the
work. Those TWO officers are very
much embarrassed just now for the
want OF "right of-way" to the city's
place of deposit and tho incorrigible-
ness of the floods OF the "raging FIRM
ity." The city ought TO make some
provision for getting rid OF its
offal during the spring HOODS.
A barge might be made and anchored
near the bluffs on the river so tho
carts contaiug refuse Of all sorts, dead
animals ana what not, DO carried out
into deep water and dumped. This
will De necessity in no distant day.
The city now has & good hospital
and the grounds are being sOdded and
in one weeks time will
be in very c.eGitable shape.
There is, OF course an endless work in
sanitary matters, but the energy, per
severance and "good nature in all of
it" upon the part OF the city authori-
ties make ali feel certain degree Of
satisfaction. There is much resistance
and some kicking against the efforts
Of the officers iu executing the health
laws, but that is nothing new. His
honor might cure this resistance to
the health laws by inflicting little
punishment just as an additional aid
to the health authorities.
