The returns for the last week as given by THE
Fnnnciai Chronicle of Saturday are of course
incomplete, bat indicate clearly that outside Of
New York. Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago
there is no increase in the aggregate volume Of
business compared with last year. Nevelthc-
less the increase at Ncw-York ranges from 81
TO 81 per cent weekly, aud at the three other
large cities from II TO % per cent. 1t is eyi-
dent that the increase at these points and not
elsewhere is mainly due to speculation in Sc
curitcs and products. There cannot be gen
cral Improvement in other trade without larger
payments through the banks at the twenty
three widely scattered centres Of trade.

Spectators in pork lifted the p ice % cents, in
bacon 20 cents, and IN lard cents per 100

that branch also. The cotton market was
tolerably steady bat declined a sixteenth, while
speculation in print cloths lifted the price as

the prospect of a strike in the mills, while the

That the Sunday question is not yet settled
is certainly not due to lack OF discussion on the
subject. 1t was argued yesterday at length by
the Sunday Observance Association and by
several well-known clergymen. The DRIFT OF
sentiment was clearly against what is known as
a more liberal Sunday. 1t will be noted, how
ever. that the opening of museums and Libraries
was opposed mainly on the ground that 1t
would lead to open theatres and other places OF
amusement.

Some of the organization problems which
the Republican County Committee purpose to
wrestle with are not easy of solution; but there
is no easily suggested reason why the district
associations should not be allowed TO add to
their membership, under proper conditions, on
other days than those formally fixed for enrol
ments. This would serve to keep up interest
in the associations the year round. At present
there is not much life In the organizations
except as election day approaches.

Governor,s Proclamation.

Whereas, authentic statements and in
formation from sources | deem reliable,
have been received at this department from
diffei ent localities in Idaho that numerous
organizations have been formed and are
now forming for the purpose of expelling,
by force and violence, the Chinese who
may be found in those localities on and
after the first day of May, 1886, tits hoped
that none of our citizens will join in with
such movement, nor countenance in any
way such violations of law. The life and
property OF our citizens, and those of the
Chinese as well, who are engaged in our
midst in. peaceful occupations, are emit
tied to and must receive the equal protec-
ton of the laws of our territory.
do, therefore admonish the people in
every portion OF Idaho to oppose in every
lawful way the institution ofsuch riotous
proceedings and mob violence. And
warn those persons, organizations and
committees having in view the forcible ex-
pulsion OF the Chinese, or any other per-
son now pursuing their peaceful labor,
against sucn acts of olence, with the
assurance that the law will hold those
who may engage in such deeds responsible,
individually and collectively, for the re-
suits of their acts. And | particularly
notify and call on the sheriffs of the coun-
ties and the officers of the law to use
every precaution to prevent all riotous
demonstration for such objects, and if I'M
able to maintain the peace and majesty of
the law, to call on every male citizen to
assist you, recording the name of every
man who refuses you assistance, or who
are rioters, for future prosecution. See

a,ayed ON and KILLED.

Last night the Inter-ldaho had a
short account Of the fatal caving in
Of an ore chute in the Parker mine,
whereby Ward Wills, . miner who
recently came from Manitowoc, Wis
consin, was killed. The facts OF the
case are gathered from Dan Allen,
who was the first man to discover the
unfortunate man.
Wills was acting as carman, and
the chute having become filed with
rock and dirt raised by the hosting
works from below, led to the inyesti-
CATION. When he was struck down,
the chute began to fill, and his car
ran over the dump and down the hill.
Mr.. Allen was in charge of the hoist
ing works, and right off surmised that
something was wrong in the tunnel;
he called on Jim Quinn to accompa-
ny him, and in few minutes they
entered the caved ground to find the
dead body Of young Wills.
One rock, weighing nearly two
hundred pounds, was found lying
against Wills knee, and another one
weighing probably three hundred
pounds beside him. About a car
load Of rock had dropped from the
roof Of the tunnel. Quinn says that
only short time before they had,
with picks and sledges, tried the
ground and thought there was no dan
|ger.
Mr.. Wills was a very exemplary,
faithful and honorable young man,
and his friends in this country will
miss him from their circle.
Something peculiar about his be-
ing SO unceremoniously called away
is called to mind by Jim Quinn, who
says that only couple OF days ago
Wills told him Quinn that he had a
notion he ought to quit the mining
business, go prospecting or in fact
| get out from underground work else
lit would result in his death, and that
at no distant day.
Should no instructions be received
| from the deceased's relatives in the
East by tomorrow morning, the flu
neral will take place at 10 o'clock, in
Haley Inter Idaho, April Both.
