Et,rNpALE, d. T., Sept. 25.--It tran
snIres that the Northern Sioux have
uuder headway an enterprise which Is at
once novel and important. 1t has been
determined by the councilmen OF the
sloux nation, as well as by general as
aent among the people, TO establish mail
and transportation routes through the
frontier region, which shall be conducted
exclusively by Indians, and as an Indian
ENTERPRISE. The principal part Of the
work will be done by young men OF the
nation, while the older ones will super
wise the plan and manage all the labor
connected with the transportation Of mail,
messenger and freight. II will be perform
ed on foot and athletic young Indians
are now In training for their
part Of the enterprise. The mall carriers
will travel by twos, and freight and pas
senger carriers by fours. II Is intended
TO have the routes embrace every place
that Is considered frontier town. Sew
eral hundred Indians have been employed.
ALI must be men Of sobriety and honesty
Loads for mail teams will be limited TO
200 pounds, and these for freight and
passenger teams to 1000 pounds. The
mail VIII ne tLTd0hpOIitu aNColuluk w
government specifications the same as at

in hauling passengers and merchandise
on any route will be governed by the
amount OF business offered. Mail
carriers will travel at the
rate Of eight miles per hour,
passenger carriers at the rate Of seven
miles aud freight carriers at the rate OF
five miles. The men will be harnessed TO
strong but light vehicles made especially

tions will be established every twenty
five miles, and this distance is to c0nsti-
tute day travel for each team. Every
runner will be required to make three
trips per week, total Of seyenty-hve
miles in seven days. A term OF ninety
days Is TO be the limit
Of years. work for one
individual. At the expiration OF each
tefm the Indians who have been in the SER
vice are TO return to their reservation and
their places will be flied by fresh lot.
The whole business is TO be conducted on
the cooperative principle. Every mem

NATIONAL BANKS.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-Treasurer
Jordon, referring yesterday TO the alleged
threat OF several national banks to with
draw from the national banking system,
said "You can rest assured that no
bank will carry out that th-eat. |. Be
cause the situation for them Is not at all
stringent, and they are in no danger oil
being driven TO the wall or even cramped
by these bond calls. 2. Because there
are no state laws under which these banks
can reorganize pro6tably Ifanyofthe states
had laws under which these banks could
issue currency there might be some temp
tation TO them TO go ont OF the system,
although / doubt II their calculation
would be accepted generally. ! am in
clined TO believe that these banks would
not for good deal lose their status as
national banks, for the reason that much
of their business would go to the
remaining national banks. This would
be especially the case with small
depositors whose suspicious would be
fully aroused, and to whom the word
''nationain in banks title has always
been a great protection for their small
investments. Again, money commands 8
and per cent, and banks cannot afford
to retire their circulation when 1t is as
valuable as that. There was never
time when banks were making as much.
Months ago there might be some
sense in these reports, but 1t is nonsense
to talk Of II now. 1t Is rumored at the
treasury department that the forced sub
stitution of other bonds for all per cent.
will not be pushed very rapidly, and that
plenty OF time will be given banks TO
make a change. Called bonds deposited
by the banks will be the last taken up for
liquidation, and no bank will be crippled
by these callsu

the holes IN the breast were caused by
bullets or birds. A large amount of evil

suit OF verdict OF not guilty.

NEW YORK, Sept. 20 The Mail and
Express says 1T was reported this after
noon that the suspension of John G.
Moore & Co., bankers and brokers, No.
1888 Broadway, was the result OF irregu-
larities on the part of trusted employee
OF the house. At Moore & Co.'s office
IL was admitted that such was
the fact but the name of the offender
was withheld. 1t was ascertained that
some months back the firm took into
their employ young man, aged twenty
one, who had up to that time resided in a
Western city He brought with him to
the metropolis novel method of
growing rich with ease and rapidly with
out the expenditure Of capital. Having
no faith in the rise OF stocks he reached
the conclusion that such of the FIRMS
customers who gave orders to
buy should sell instead numerous
orders for long account. He gave
directions for selling "short" without
the knowledge of the firm, Finding the
market going against him, he left the city
few days since, notifying the firm by
letter that his "hedging" process, which
had been carried on for some weeks, had
PANIED out dlsastrously, aud that the firm,
according to hts calculations, would find
themselves short some $50, 900. An
examination OF the books revealed the
fact that the firm has thus far sustained 0
loss OF close on TO 100000. The where.
abouts of the connden ial clerk are un,
known. The loss occasioned by the
clerks speculations falls upon the firm
alone. They expect to resume business
In few days.

FIRE RECORD.


Special to the Gazette.
DENIsoN, TEX, Sept 25.--An alarm of
fire was turned IN at $50 a. M, that
soon brought out the fire department.
The alarm came in over the telephone
and said the fire was on Crawford street.
After two muddy drives were made the
firemen failed to find any fire, and made
up their minds it was false alarm. This
may be iun for the parties giving the
alarm, but 1t is hard on the boys and
horses.
