How Middleton and His Troops Pillage,l

The New York Times Montreal special
says: All Canada is proud of General
Middleton's success and that of the Vol

shocking many whom love and esteem,
that the army dishonored themselves by
the shameful pillage which they commit

around Batouche, and can affirm that for
distance of twenty-five miles, all the
houses on the South bank of the Saskatch-
evan were sacked and plundercd and over
twenty of them burned and RACED to the
ground. That region, previously so flour
ishing, now offers picture of depressing
desolation and distress.
The Volunteers pillaged the inhabitants
of all they had in the way of horses, goods
and clothes, leaving them only wha, they
had ON their backs.

$1,000 each. AS the cattle tI,ieving car.

cattle thieving for two years. Quinn, af.
ter "arranging his AFFAIRS skipped also to
Montana in company with one Jim Scott,
who has been poising as cattle detective
in the Macleod district.
The operations of these gentlemen seem
to be of the following description: Driving
the calves off to corral and keeping them

in similar operations in Kansas and Idaho.

THE RAILWAY LEASE
Of the q. Il. h N. Co. by the N. p. Ap-
proved by the Directors.

The Philadelphia Times says: In the ne
gotiations for the lease of the Oregon
Railway and Navigation Company's prop.
erty by the Northern Pacific Railway
Company, matters have advanced so far
that the terms Of the proposed lease, hav-
ing been approved by the Northern Pa
citic directors, are to be submitted to the
stockholders Of the company at the an
nual meeting in September. Charles B.
Wright, formerly the President Of the
Northern Pacific, and still one of its most
influential managers, is said to be opposed
to the lease for the alleged reason that it
will make Portland the Pacific terminus
of the road instead of Tacoma, where he
has large vested interests. Ii the lease is
consummated the company will be in the
possession OF a through line, terminating
at Portland. If it is not consummated,
the necessity of constructing the division
terminating at Tacoma will become at once
imperative.

SpOils for the VictOrs,

The Democrats of Cuyahoga county
Ohio, met at Cleveland to select delegates
to the State Convention. The committee
on resolutions was out for an hour and a
half. Several of the members wanted tc
condemn President Cleveland's administra.
tion; others were anxious to return a
mild Endorsement, while still others were
non -committal. Extracts from the com.
mittee's reports are as follows
"Rcsol-rd.: That the Democratic party
having been in possession of the Govern.
ment ever since March 1, and that large
number of Offices are yet held by offensive
Republicans, therefore be it
"Rcsol7rd;: That our Senator and Rep

The administration was then Endorsed

THE ALASKAN CRUISE.
Captain Healy, of the "Corwin," Gives an
Account of His Trip.

The Acting Secretary of the Treasury
has received report from Captain Healy,
commanding the revenue steamer "Cor-
win, in regard to his cruise in the Alaskan
waters. The report is dated Port Clar-
ence, a. T., July 70. Lieutenant Benham
and two seamen were left on Otter Island
early in the cruise for the protection of
seals, and relieving Lieutenant Cantwell
from that duty. No evidence of illicit
trade was found among any Of the whal.
ing vessels. Information was received of
the loss in the ice Of the barks "Napoleon"
and "Gazelle' in latitude 80 deg. North,
and longitude III deg. 20. All the boats
were manned by their respective crews,
and an endeavor was made to reach place
Of safety. Two boats were lost with all
on board, numbering eighteen persons per-
ished. Four men in the other boats were
frozen to death. The steamers "Belrva"
and "Thrasher" and the barks "Atlantic,"
"Arnold," "Dawn," "Young," "Phnnix"
and "Eliza" were also badly damaged by
the ice. Agents at St. George and St.
Paul report that no marauding vessels
have been seen so far this season. The
natives at Cape Prince Of Wales and on
Diomede Island were found peaceful and
thriving. At Hathem Inlet, Lieutenant
Caldwell and three men were dispatched
with a steam launch to explore the Kowak
river and, If possible, to-, reach its head
waters. Another expedition was dis.
patched under Second Assistant Engineer
McLonegan to explore the Noyataz river.
Successful results are expected from both.
Up to July 3, nothing had been heard at
latham Inlet of the schooner "Viking,"
having on board the naval expedition un-
der Lieutenant G. NJ. Stoney. The "Cor-
win" will extend her cruise to Kotzebue
Sound.

National Park Travel.

The St. Paul Pioneer Press says that II.
c. Davis, Assistant General Passenger
Agent of the Northern Pacific, has re-
turned from the Yellowstone Park, where
he has been since the excursion season
opened. Mr.. Davis says travel to the
Park has been very large, and much in en-
cess of what was expected. The Park
tourists have come from all sections of the
globe. a number OF Pacific Coast travel
ers have returned by the way OF the
Northern Pacific simply for the purpose
of visiting the Park. Every one has been
more than delighted with the trip, and the
first complaint has vet to be made Mr..
Davis estimates that fully 1000 tourists
have already visited the Park, and expects
fully as many more will do so before the
season closes.

ANOTHER LARGE SR1KE.
The Knights of Labor and the Wabash
Road at War,

On the 14th there came to St. Louis
tour members Of the General Executive
Committee Of the Knights Of Labor. The
mission Of these gentlemen was to have a
conference with Colonel Talmage, Gen.
eral Manager of the Wabash Railroad, in
regard to the relation existing between the
members of the Knights of Labor and the
company, which is said to he in quite a
disturbed condition. Talmage being out
ofthe city, that gentleman was telegraphed
requesting him to state where and when a
conference could be had. To this Tai
mage replied that he saw no reason why
he should meet the committee for the pur.
pose named; that he was not aware Of any
dissatisfaction existing among the employees
Of the road and declined to confer with the
committee. AS al apparent outcome of
this there was promulgated at Moberly,
whers the Wabash has extensive shops,
an official order commanding all Knights
Of Labor Of the Wabash system at all
points to quit work on last Tuesday,
August IS, at IL o'clock noon, and remain
out till further orders from the General
Executive Board The order is signed by
Frederick Turner, Secretary Of the Board.
1t has created quite a sensation in Moberly
and the strike ordered is looked on as the
most serious for many years.

desperate fight between number Of COW.
boys occurring at the ranch Of Frank
Murray, thirty.five miles Southwestern here
in the Chickasaw Nation. A party oi
about twenty-five cowboys rode up and
fired about one hundred shots at the boys
inside the ranch cabin, with whom they
had quarreled over burnt stock. The boys
inside, being we'll armed, returned the fire
with deadly effect, killing Dick Covart
and seriously wounding Dick Jones and
Bob Woods of the attacking party. This
makes four men who have been killed over
the trouble at the ranch since April.

From the Philadelphia American.
Iowa has prohibitory law which
forbids the manufacture and sale of
iutoxicauts; yet in all the large centres
of population the traffic proceeds Wig
orously and openly. In twenty EIGHT
towns aud cities the number of saloons
has increased from 40 to 9l6, while
the large sums formerly paid for Ii
conse are added to the profits of the
saloon-keepcrs. Davenport loses $780,
900, and Burlington $4,000 in this
way. The utmost that IL claimed by
the friends of prohibition is that they
have closed the saloons in small TOW ms
aud county districts, and even for
this result they give not the evidence
of official returns, but vague and
sweeping estimates. They claim
that 5000 saloons have been closed,
aud that 2,hOO are kept closed perma.
ncntly. But the official figures of the
internal revenue department show
that Iowa has sixteen rcctiiiers OF
spirits, aud 1927 dealers in intoxi-

cannot have been great. The total
