ZANZIBAR, Dec. 27.-It has been dis
covered that an agreement in relation 10
slave dealing exists between the Eng
lish East-Africa Company and the Sultan
OF Zanzibar and the Arab slave dealers
of Manbaza. By this agreement the
Arabs are authorized to carry on trade
in slaves and to tlog or otherwise punish
them. The company upon hiring slaves
must make an arrangement with the
owner. The wages Of the slaves must
be paid to the owners. English mission
stations are obliged, under the agree
ment, to return runaway slaves to their
owners. After the agreement had been
signed the agents OF the. company, Mr..
Mackenzie and General Matthews, aC-
companied by a number OF ManbaZa
Arabs, went to the Rabai Church Mis-
sion station and demanded the surrender
Of certain runaways who had taken
refuge at the station. The missionaries
refused to give them up. The com
pany's agents, therefore, in order to
avoid collision, paid S?5 for each slave
they were unable to return to their
owners.
The English consul has issued n proc
lamation warning all British subjects in
Zanzibar that they will be liable to seven
years Imprisonment il they enter into
contracts for slave labor. The British
traders have made united protest
against the orders. They say that slave
labor is the only kind OF labor obtainable
in Zanzibar and that il this is cut Off all
work must be estopped. In view OF this
protest the consul will suspend the en-
forcement OF the proclamation pending
instructions from Lord Salisbury. The
Secretary OF the English East-Africa
Company denies the authenticity OF the
story from Zanzibar about an agreement
between the company and theSultan and
the Arab slave dealers. He says no such
agreement has been made. He further
says that the only action OF Agent Mac
Kenzie in regard to slaves has been to

Sioux Cry, IA., Dec. ga serious
riot occurred this morning near Tnpp,
OAK, between Russian Mennonites and
Americans. A public sale was held at
the farm OF Russian named Sink, and
an American farmer named Merchant
purchased dozen chickens. When
ready to start home he found two of the
chickens missing and complained to
Sink, who told him TO take something OF
equal value. He caught a goose and
started home, but was overtaken by a
party OF eight Russians, who claimed
the goose as their property. A wrangle
ensued that attracted others to the scene
and soon a general fight was in pro-
gress, in which some twenty men were
engaged, with the Russians us the
'aggressors. Two brothers named john
son, who were passing, joined in the
melee with knives. A Russian named
Mayer was stabbed, and he in turn split
Charles JOhnson's head with neck
yoke, inaicting fatal injury. The same
weapon broke the arm OF George John.
son, and the knives were used to slash
up three other Russians badly, but not
fatally. The Americans found the force
opposing them too strong and withdrew
from the field. The wounded Russians
were taken care of by their companions,
and nothing eau be learned from them
owing to their clannish customs. The
affair has created the most intense ex-
citement in the neighborhood, where the
majority OF the settlers are Russians.
Officers are now investigating.

How the Doubly Redeemed Bank Note Is
Supposed to hnvo Turned Up.
WASHINGTON, D. c.; Dec. 27.-The in-
vestigation in the office OF the Comp
troller OF Currency in the matter OF the
$50 national bank note presented for re-
denton after having been once redeem
ed and cancelled, has SO far failed to dis
close how the note escaped destruction
by the macerating machine. The i'm.
preston is growing among those engaged
In the investigation that the note acci-
dentally slipped from the package while
being counted by the banks agent and
was picked up by dishonest employe.
This is strengthened by the fact that a
note OF like denomination was found in
a waste basket two days before this note
was presented for redemption. The first
note, however, was found by an honest
messenger, and was Immediately sur
rendered to the clerk in charge OF the
office.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Captain W.
L. Couch, noticeable for his long, flow
ing moustache and slouch hat, was COM
ing out OF Wizards hotel lobby to-day,
when reporter ran across him.
He has been in Washington during
the last three sessions OF Congress en-
deavoring to secure legislation to organ.
ize the Territory of Oklahoma and open
the land ior homestead settlement.
Knowing this the reporter called his
attention to the recently published dis
patch from Wichita, Kansas, to the effect
that "Pawnee Bill'' had arrived at that
place to assume command OF movement
to invade Oklahoma.
81 think" suid Captain Couch, chat
| know something about the Oklahoma
movement and the kind OF people who
desire to secure homes in that country.
These people are honest, INTELLIGENT and
law-abiding, aud are only asking for le-
gal right to secure homes for themselves
and families. No person with such
blood.curdling name rs "Pawnee
Bill' has ever been identified with the
Oklahoma movements, and no leader Of
that character will be called for. No
settlement in Oklahoma in advance OF
the time fixed by the law is contemplate
ed, and when legislation is secured every
man in the United States will have an
equal chance to get home in that coun-
try, which is equal in extent to the great
State OF Ohio, and no leaders OF any
character will be necessary.
"The kind OF name assumed by the
person named in the dispatch is very
popular at the present time with the cat
tie men, horse thieves and robbers who
are now in possession OF Oklahoma and
who are doing all in their power to OBJ
struct the passage OF any measure look
ing to the establishment OF law aud order
and the consequent punishment ofcrime.
But Iassurc you such is the not case with
those who desire to seek homes in
that territory. Under the present state
of affairs in Oklahoma the criminal
classes are practically protected, crime
runs riot, the surrounding Indian tribes
arc being demoralized and destroyed,
and all this under the cover OF the illegal
oCcupany of the cattle syndicates. The
passage OF the OklaOma bill, now pend
ing in the House, will put au end to this
foul blot on our civilization"

tomorrow will say: Notwithstanding
the wide impression that the additions
TO the railway system Of the United
States during 1883 would be compara-
tsvely insignificant, the evidence is now
before US that the railway mileage Of the
country was increased during the year
by no less than I, 7,l20 miles of main track.
While this Is much less than the phe-
nomenal increase in the years 1887, 1886,
1882, 1881, when the new mileage was
respectively $4,000, 5000, 1850 and
9,706 miles, the record for the past year
exceeds that OF every other year in his.
tory, with the exception Of the year 1871,
when 1879 miles were added. New
track was laid in all but two OF AZ states
and territories, the exceptions being

OTTAWA, oSr., Dec. 27.-The fisheries
department has been apprised Of the re-
turn to Victoria of two British Columbia
fishing schooners which had been on an
exploring tour to Black Cod banks of
Queen Charlotte's islands. The owners
OF the vessels have been richly rewarded
for their enterprise. Fish were found
in great abundance in from $50 to SOC
iathoms and at about three miles from
shore. The anchorage along the coast is
excellent, in natural harbors well shell
tered from the wind. The supply Of fish
at all times was all that could be desired
and steam fishing vessels with 800 OF
400 iathoms OF cable would doubtless
succeed best in the fishery. The Vic
toria people are naturally somewhat ex'
cited over the success which has attend
ed the inauguration OF what promises to
become great industry.

New York, Dec. 27.-Ihe directors o.
all the Vanderbilt roads met at the
Grand Central depot this morning. The
meetings have been awaited with great
interest both in Wall street and among
the holders OF the stock in the different

panies represented amounts to nearly
500, ,000, 900 and on all but Sl4 100000 OF

continuously for many years.
For some days rumors have been cur
rent that the policy OF the company to
adhere to 4-per.cent rate would be
changed in Difference to the wishes OF w.
X. Vanderbilt, and those reports were
confirmed by the action OF the Lake
Shore directors, who declare an extra
dividend OF per cent in addition to the
regular dividend OF per cent for the
current six months. This makes the
stock pay per cent for the year ending
December 81, 1888, us semi.annual
dividend of 9 per cent had been paid in
July. In the afternoon the directors OF
the Cleveland. Columbus, Cincinnati Il

MARBLEHEAD, Mass, Dec. 27.-To'day
has been the droariest for a long time in
this old town, notwithstanding the fact
that thousands of strangers have
thronged the streets all day viewing the
ruins of the great fire Of Christmas
night. But little can yet be learned re-
garding the future movements OF the
Shoe firms, although in one or two in.
stances steps have already been taken
toward rebuilding or continuing busi-
ness temporarily.
The shoe factories now left in town
employ about 1000 to 1900 men, while
the number OF employees thrown out OF
work by the fire will be about l,S00.
The capacity OF the factories burned was
$50 cases per day, when running on full
time, which would make pay roll OF
about $2l 900 week. Such was Mar
blehead's business before the fire. To-
day with population OF 1900, only
about one-sixth can find employment.
Great suffering will ensue.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Dec. 27.-The in
ternational convention met in this city
this afternoon to hear the reports OF the
committee appointed in November to
draft bill to take the place OF the act of
1872. The bill as prepared by the COM
mittce was then taken up and considered
at length. The bill was altered so US to
authorize the fixing OF the classification
OF cities upon the census taken by the
municipality in any other year than that
in which the United States census is
taken. The bill reported by the commit
tee is based upon the bill OF 1887.
The most important changes made are
those leugthening the term Of the treas
urer and controller to three years in
stead OF two, and shortening the term OF
the Mayor from four to three years, Civ
ing the Mayor the power OF appoint
ing the police, with the concur
renee OF select council, and the absolute
power OF their removal, instead OF such
removal being limited to the cause
OF incompetency, inability, or mis-
conduct in the act OF 1857; the
vesting OF the appointment of
the city engineer in the Mayor
instead Of in councils; the lengthening
of the engineers term from two to three
years, with authority to appoint his own
assistants, and the limitation Of the rep
reseniation in common council to one
from each ward with provision for one
additional member, where the number
OF taxable inhabitants exceeds 700. So
far rs it proceeded to-day, the conven-
