New YORK, Sept. THE old Roman
Is all right. He came up smiling at
1880 this morning, feeling all rlght'
with the exception of little weakness.
The Judge, after retiring last night,
slept peacefully until 3 a. m. He took
his medicine and Immediately fell
asleep again. and did not wake for i've
hours. He awOke at this time for only
a minute. and did not finally get up
until I1:3O. At that time DR.. Gold
thwaite was at his bedside, and directed
that for his breakfast he should have
nothing but toast, a little clam
broth and a cup of weak co1ee.
After breakfast he insisted upon
sitting up, and finally compromised
with the doctor who allowed him to sit
up in bed. From the time he awoke
until late tonight he has been deluged
with cards from prominent men anxious
10 see him. Col. Brice, ex-senator Bar
NUN aud Herman Oelrichs were, how
ever, the only persons outside OF his
immediate attendants who were admit
ted TO the bedside. Among the callers
were Gov. Hill, Gov. Green, of New
Jersey: Senator Blackburn, of Ken
tuckV: Mayor Hewitt and eX-May0r
Grace and Thomas Mast, the artist. 10
Mr.. Mast Judge Thurman spoke regret
fully of the disappointment tnat ne
had given the Democrats OF New ork.
He said as far as the attack OF cholera
YnOrbus was concerned he did not give
q snap. ,,,
man grew rapidly better, and by
O'Clock this evening had
RECLAIMED HIS STRENGTH.
The iudge felt so well that he insisted
upon attending the reception at the
Manhattan club tonight. He and Dr.
GoldthWaite had an animated discussion
on this point. DR.. GOldthWaite finally
winning by telling Judge Thurman If
he abstained from the pleasure OF at
tending tO-night's reception. he
,yould undoubtedly be able TO
fire off full measure OF
Democratic doctrine at Newark tO-mor-
row night. According TO the arrange
ments made tonight, Judge Thurman
will remain in his rooms tomorrow, re-
fusing to see all callers up to p. m. AT
that time ne will receive a few OF his
personal friends. he Will leave the
Fifth Avenue hotel at 6:3O IN the even
ing for the Pennsylvania railroad depot,
and at Z o'clock he will enter Col.
Brice's car for Newark, arriving at that
place at 7:1O p. m. He will be imme-
diately driven to the Bellevue rink,
where he is expected to deliver at least
a short speech. Judge Thurman said
tonight that he was going to get even
with his disappointment by firing at the
Newarkers all the Democratic thunder
he had purposed to shoot off at the citi-
fens of New York. Immediately after
his speech in Newark the Old Roman
will be driven to the Pennsylvania rail-
road depot in Newark, and VIII leave

a man named Philbrick. where he was
working. The next morning Lowe
came to Philbrick's farm with his son
and attempted to take the mower back.
Roche protested and drew his revolver
on young Lowe, who was rushing at
him with an axe. The elder Lowe
stepping up behind his son with pistol
fired. Roche returned the fire without
effect and fell mortally wounded. Both

FARGO, Oak, Sept. IA scheme, the
proportions of which at once stamps
it as nothing more nor less than a gil
gantic wheat trust, Is gradually being
brought to focus here. Possessing al
most unlimited capital. the plan of the
combination is to purchase as near as
possible all wheat delivered for storage
at any elevator on railroad. The or
ganiZatiOn is said to comprise some OF
the heaviest mOnied men in Duluth, st.
Paul, Minneapolis, Brainerd and other
smaller cities in Minnesota; Fargo.
Grand Forks, Jamestown, Devils Lake
and other points in Dakota. Altogether
over thirty capitalists are said to be in
the pool in individual amounts ranging
from $4,000 to S1,500,000, profits or
losses to be appOrtOned proportionately.
Prices are paid at slight advance on
market quotations for present or future
delivery, when necessary to secure
desired purchase. The field of opera
tiOns is confined to the wheat producing
region of the Northwest, and only the
higher grades of the cereal are taken.
The above was CLEANED from a private
letter dated Duluth, and written to
capitalist in this city, evidently now
member of the organization, the letter
coming into possession of a third party
through mistake in delivery with other
papers.

BEGINNING OF BUSINESS.
The Sioux Commission Holds Its
First Council at Lower Brule


Special to the Globe.
LOWER BRULE AGENCY, OAK, Sept
THE first council was held this
forenoon. Mayor Anderson was the
first to address the assembly, and stated
that he was proud of the progress made
by Indians during the past few years,
and requested them to treat representa-
tives of the Great Father with the
utmost respect, as they were here to
offer for their approval an act that
would in a short time make them happy
and prosperous. He said that the
commissioners were not here TO force
them, but clearly and candldly explain
to them the provisions of the bill.
When Mayor Anderson had completed
his speech Rev. Mr.. Cleveland spoke
to the indians in their own language,
explaining every detail of the Sioux
bill. 1t was not intended to hold the
council until tomorrow, but the indica-
tions being so promising today, the
commissioners changed their minds and
had the first council to-day. Nearly
500 indians held council at this agency
last night. All the Indians are now
here, and at the council last night
number made remarks, but no long
speeches were made. A young indian
named Eagle Star declared to-
day that when the papers were opened
for signatures he would be the first to
sign. Eagle Star is very pop
ular, and should he do as
he says he shall. good
round number of signatures will be OBJ
tained at once, as he has a very large
following. The Christianized Indians
all favor the act and they are very
powerful element here. The agency
employees and others who are familiar
with the Indians views declare that no
trouble will be experienced in securing
the signatures of almost all the Indians
at this agency. The work will be
pushed here owing to the favorable at
titude of the Indians, and much more
rapid progress will be made than at
other agencies. By Monday the COM
sioners expect to call for signatures.

he told friend that he was heartily
tired of Office, not because the work
was too laborious, or because Of his
health, his health was capital and had
been continuously so for some time.
