THE WYOMING TROUBLE.
The Workingmen Warn the Chinese to
Leave Cheyenne.
CHEYENNE, w. T.. Sept.

CHEYENNE, w. T., Sept, %.
The workingmen representing all classes
of labor held meeting here Saturday night
and Sunday morning a number of printed
circulars were distributed in different parts
of the city and posted on the doors of all the
houses occupied by Chinese, reading:
"A fair warning: All Cinnamon found in
the city of Cheyenne after October lst will
be subjected to a coat of tar and feathers and
ridden from the city on rail. The Chinese
must GO"
This was signed "Workiugmen." The af-
fair created sensation throughout the city
and while nearly all the best citizens of this
city would prefer to see the Chinese 60, still
there is no doubt, should mob attempt to
drive them ont with violence they would be
protected. The proprietor of a steam lsun-
dry published card in today's paper that in
defence to public opinion he had discharged
all his Chinese help. The Chinese camp at
Newcastle mines was visited Saturday night
by mob of masked white men who com
PEELED the guard to surrender. After some
talk the mob agreed to give the Cinnamon "a
hours to leave. They said they would riddle
with bullets all Cinnamon found there at the
expiration of that time A special train was
sent from Seattle to bring the Chinese to
the city.

THE FRAMlNGHAM SAVINGS
Bank Investigation Discloses Deficiency
of s22s, 900, and Not Yet Finished.
BosroN, Sent. 2S

BosToN, Sept. 2S
Savings Bank Commissioner Garry toda,
made application before Justice Chas Allen
for temporary injunction in case of the
Framingham Savings Bank. Order of notice
issued returnable Oct. y next, for the officers
of the bank to show cause why this injunc.
ton should not issue. 1t is stated that recent
developments show there will probably be a
deficiency of about S22S 900; that the exami-
nation of the deposit books bring to light
many financial irregularities, and tends to
show that the late treasurer of the bank,
Coleman Adams, was defaulter and had ap-
proprited the funds of the bank. The ap-
preparation made by not giving full credit
in the deposit books for the Iull amount de-
posted, and in falsifying dividend accounts.
Its thought by placing the bank under iniunc-
tlon it may be able to tide over the present
financial embarrassment. The amouat due
depositors is about Sl50,000. He states that
the S22S, 900 deficit referred TO has come from
the failure of Cashier Adams to enter part of
the dividends declared in the deposit account
OF his ledger, and the rest of it consists of
deposits received which have not been ac-
counted for. and also of drafts which have
been entered as paid in excess of what actually
had been paid. These leaks extend over a
period from 1879 until a recent date. The
investigation is far from complete. and no
final statement can be expected for several
weeks.
birmingham special saws the bank off
cials refuse to say anything in relation to the
matter, as the affairs of the bank are in the
hands of the commissioner, and anv state
ment of its condition should come from him.
Such was the confidence reposed in late
Treasurer Adams that many find it difficult
to believe that the experts revelations can be
true. The mystery is how he has disposed
of the large sum of money. He was never
known to engage in stock speculations, and
the only theory is it may nave been used to
support losing investments, or to help out
side parties. The banks surplus was estimat-
ed at about 100000 and the treasurer's bond
was $4,000. The suspension of the bank
will entail much suffering upon many of the
depositors who are poor people whose all
was in the hands of this bank. At the time
of Adams suspension the directors assured
the depostors that the bank was perfectly
sound, and some feeling is manifested against
them now on this account. 1t should be said
however, that none of the officers, as far as
known, Withdrew their own deposits at that
time.

BEN. BUTLER
Gives an Exposition of His Financial
Views in General.

New YORK, Sept. IS.
The Tribune reporter today interviewed
Gen. Butler regarding the proposed Warner
silver bill. The General had not read the
bill but took advantage of the opportunity to
give an exposition of his financial views gem
orally He declared that the withdrawal
from circulation OF the one and two dollar
bills was illegal law. He declares there shall
be SO much greenback circulation outstanding
and when it comes into the treasury it will
be reissued. Manning SAYS the ones and
twos that come into the treasury will not 90
out again. If he may do that with the ones
and twos he NAV do it with the tives and tens
and twentes. The law saws he shall not do
it with either of them.
"Do you know why it is done?"
'lt is done to save the banks from being
forced by the people into the issue of frac-
tional currency"
To the reporters suggestion that the sill
yer question would be prominent in Con-
gress this winter the General responded:
"Let them keep it up, pile it all on the
people, this and more, and in the end they
will rise and throw of the yoke"
"Do you expect serious trouble?"

A HOWLING MOB
Parade the Streets of Montreal, Damay.
ing Public Buildings, on Account Of a
Compulsory Vaccination.

MONTREAL, Sept. %.
In consequence of the Inauguration of the
compulsory vaccination, today, about this
evening bowling mob surrounded the east
end branch health Office and completely
wrecked the building. The police were pow
erless and the mob gathering strength from
this marched upon the central office in City
Hall. By this time, however, the riot alarm
had been sounded and a strong force of con-
stables were gathered inside, but having no
one to command them, the mob drove them
out of their way like sheep. After the mob
had smashed the central office they turned
their attention to the central police station
and soon had all the windows in that building
broken. Revolver shots were freely fred at
the police. To scare them the police fired
over their heads, only to be received with
jeers and laughter Things now looked so
bad that the police were armed with rifles
with fixed bayonets, but happily it was deem
ed necessary not to use them.
The coBstables have now charged the mob.
clubbing right and left, and succeeded in dis.
persing them, but not before they had wreck
ed the greater portion of the Court House
windows, which are opposite City Hall. The
mob broke up into different bodies and pro-
ceeded to wreck the windows of the Herald
Office and of the Offices Of the medical health
examiner, chairman Of the finance committee
and public vaccnator.
A number arrests have been made and the
city is in a state Of great excitement. IL is
thought that the riots will be continued to.

public buildings all night, while a military
force will tomorrow be held 10 readiness to

HEAVY ATTACHMENTS
Placed Against Jordan, Marsh n Co..
by New York Manufacturers.
RnSInN- Sent oS

BOSTON, Sept. IS
On Saturday attachments to the amount OF
500, 600 were granted by Judges Barrett and
Donahoe of New York against Jordan, Marsh
& Co, in this city, in behalf of certain New
York cloak manufacturers, and it is said that
other attachments of the same sort are to be
placed today
Mr. Jordan says in relation to this that the
claims made by these parties amount to be-
tween Sl75,0 900 and S200,0 and that they
propose to contest them and that if the court
decides against the firm the claims will be
paid, Mr.. Jordan thought the affair was a
conspiracy against them through the medium
OF one of their employees.
B. f. Brooks. counsel of Jordan, Marsh &
Co. said Monday, "The ground on which my
client refuses to pay these claims is that it is
a conspiracy to cheat. These goods have
never been bought or received by Jordan,
Marsh & Co. The alleged claims are of re-
mote dates and there is no record of them
whatsoever. 1t was done to head off anv
legal action on our part 1t is case of fraud
and will be treated as such"
The counsel said that the parties who
brought these suits were already trying to
settle. These parties are well aware that
when the facts are brought to light their rep
utation will be ruined forever and they have
already begun to hedge. 1t could not be
learned that any more attachments had been
placed today.
