A CARD.

HALEY, Idaho, November %, 1883.
1t hav ns come to my knowledge that report 10
being circulated putting upon the E. c. Coffin
Hardware Company the odium that attaches to
tho foreclose of chattel mortgage and sale of my
teams, wish to say that SO far from this being
true they have stood my friends through the
whole trouble and even offered TO advance the
money for me to pay off the mortgage; but the
enormous costs and attorneys fees nesdlessiy put
upon me By the foreclosure made 1t impossible for
me to pay 1t bscs and refused to have them do
It, 1s,y "needltssiy put upon me" for the reason
that had offered to turn the teams over to Nc.
Cloud at any time he must have his money 50
that they could be sold without att rneys fees ana
costs. and that I might get what they brought
over his mortgage. and begged him net to put
me to the loss Of foreclosure. The tall respon.

The Latest Slang,

The latest slang is "tacky."
Whence it comes and why it is here
no one knows, but "tacky" is with US.
Young ladies speak OF ''the tackiest
young man." and Adolphus of his
"tacky girl" 1t may mean sharpes,,
most pointed and hence brightest;
but whatever it means it is epidemic.

TRADE IN GENERAL.

Good Prospects Of Farther Improve
mcnt-The Exports Of Gold Causio,
Some Uncasiness - The Northwes,
"All Rtght'-Etc.
Dun & Co.'S Review of Trade 70,
the week ending November "a, says
"Business has made fair progress
during the past week, and at mos,
points the prospect for further i'm
provement is considered good. Blu,
damage to the cotton crop by We,
weather has caused hesitation in nor.
tons of the South, while the outward
movement of gold at New York is
not encouraging to speculation. Not
outstanding the enormous supply of
currency in circulation, the Eastern
reserves are not SO large that gold
exports may not produce some en-
barrassment, if continued.
"The engagements Of gold for ex-
port amount to s2,73O,OOO for the
week, and bankers look fot u contin-
uance OF the outgo unless conditions
change materially. The immediate
cause is not the state Of mere handise
trade, for of late exports have exceed.
ed imports in spite OF the stoppage of
wheat shipments, but the sales Of
securities on foreign account, which
for some time have exceeded pur.
chases. A change in the temper of
investors might result from q settle.
ment of rate wars, but at present for.
eigners do not seem to regard Am.
erican railways with the confidence
formerly shown, in part because Of
their damaging competition, and in
part because the effects of the Iuter-
State act are thought serious.
Business is satisfactory or i'm.
proving at all Northwestern points
reporting, and money is in good sup.
ply, unless Cleveland, where some
stringency appears, be reckoned an
exception. Collections at all points
seem fairly satisfactory, and at many
impro, ement is noted. From parts
of the South less encouraging reports
are coming. Wet weather has in.
jured much cotton, and caused some
anxiety; at Memphis trade does not
improve, and dealers are more anx
ious about collections than about
sales. The extent of injury is not
accurately estimated, but the heavy
investments in new enterprises
throughout the South render that
section naturally mere sensitive when
a set back is threatened.
"In the dry goods business there is
comparative inactivity, but a large
auction of woolens, which realized
low prices, brought together many
buyers. The great activity and ad-
vance Of about cents in wool en-
courages hope that the trade IN good.
will improve, and some improvement is
already seen in hosiery aud in some
lightweight goods. Cottons are
generally steady, with some discount.
ing on wide sheetings; print cloths
are unchanged. The boot and shoe
trade improves with leather irregular.
In silk manufacturers it is reported
that the years production equals
$45, 100000 in value-about half the
entire consumption.
THE Treasury has paid out only
100000 more than it has taken in
during the week, and the interior
demand for money has slackened."

Charged With Stealing Opium.

BUFFALO, N. Y, August 25.-A deputy
marshal of this city caused sensation in
Ogdensburg yesterday bysarresting three
of its most reputable citizens, John w.
Stone, lawyer; Nathaniel H. Little, Jr.,
deputy collector Of customs at Ogdens-
burg, and William ]. Cuminsky, janitor
at the custom house. The warrants for
their arrest were sworn out before the
United States commissioner here, by
special apents of the treasury depart
ment at Washington, charging them with
stealing ITO pounds Of prepared opium
from the custom house at Ogdensburg.
This is the outcome Of tile arrest of Err
nest h. Gardiner, which took place at
Ogdensburg last winter, when he and his
cousin, Ephraim Gardiner, were captured
with nearly $4,000 worth of prepared
opium in their possession. Ernest Gar
diner was arrested day sor two ago in
Chicago in connection with the same
case ~

From parties who are in the city today
from Sand Coulee we learn that steady
and favorable progress is being made at
the mines. The management is encour-
aged to believe that it will be but few
weeks until they will be prepared to take
out all the coal wanted, and that means
great many hundred tons daily. The
work is being pushed rapidly in all di-
rections. The force of carpenters has
been increased and the several buildings
under way are moving along nicely. The
store building is under full headway and
will soon be at Mr.. Garrity's service. The
coal chutes, trestle work, scales and all
other parts of the work are receiving due
attention and it will not be long until
everything on the outside is ready for big
operations. The boilers and compressors
are being put in place and by the time
the rooms are opened up the drills
NAV be put in motiOn-and then the coal
will roll forth. Several men are now at
work in the mine opening rooms and
simply doing Development work. As q
result several car loads of coal week
are sent out, all of which is used on the
Montana Central locomotives. Il.

Mr.. T.. s. Ash made flying trip to Liv.
ingston from Castle last week, says the
Enterprise. He reports that the smelter
is now running in good shape and turning
out between seven and eight tons of bull
ion every day. The capacity will soon be
increased to ten or twelve tons day, and
the road between Castle and Livingston
will be filled with teams hauling it to the
railroad. There are about 100 men now
employed by the smelter company, but
about thirty or forty first-class men can
yet find employment in the smelters and
charcoal camp. This enterprise has al
ready had wonderful effect upon the
business Of Castle, and by the time an
other pay day is come and gone plenty of
money will be in circulation. Mr.. Ash
says that the machinery all works we'll

The Indian Department Taking Measures
to Protect the Rights of Indian
Women.


Under the law which passed this ses-
sion, and was approved few days ago by
the president, relating to marriages be-
tween white men and Indian women, the
Indian bureau is going to make some
pretty radical changes on Indian reserva-
tions. The bureau has had good deal
of trouble with squaw men on some of
the reservations, and has found some of
them obstacles in the way of carrying out
many Of its purposes. A good many of
these men, while willing to cohabit with
Indian women, will not give up their
marital rights under the law and find
progeny Of Indian children barring the
heirs by white marriage which they might
afterwards contract, and in preference to
obeying the law will leave thereservation.
Thus influential white men may be gotten
rid of where it is thought necessary. The
poor white trash willing to contract these
marriages under the law have little intlu-
ence, anyhow, and do no harm by staying
The chief purpose of the department,
however, is to protect Indian women in
their property rights and prevent un-
scrupulous Adventures from securing
large acquisitions and then leaving the
reservations,

Class OF women, who are employed in va.
rlous dives as beer jerkers. An inquest
was held at which four girls testified that
about 3 O'Clock they were coming from
work when they tripped in the hall over
the form of a man whom they supposed
to be drunk, took him iuto room, un-
dressed him and put him to bed. They
then sent for doctor, who arrived in
few minutes, and pronounced the man
dead. Nothing was developed to show
how the man came in the hall or what
caused his death.

Yesterday morning two young men
named Frank Bair and John Emmons
started on hunting trip. They crossed
the Missouri and walked up the Sun river
short distance, where they found good
hunting. Emmons shot at flock Of
ducks, some of which either fell in the
water or landed on the other side. En-
mons declared his intention Of going after
them and disrobing plunged into the wa
ter. Whether he was seized with cramp
and sank or whether the treacherous quick
sands drew him under is not positively
known; but before he reached shore he
disappeared and was seen no more. En-
mons was young man Of about % years
Of age and was employed by VIM Rob
erts in his shop. All who know the un-
fortunate man speak very highly Of him.
A party started out this morning to make
efforts to recoy er the body.

Porter, one of the English residents Of
this city. Mr.. Porter has been for years
suffering from an abcess on his right leg,
which at times grew SO painful as to drive
him distracted and the pain Of which
could only be alleviated by the use of
morphine. Yesterday afternoon during a
temporary alteration of mind consequent
upon the combined action of the drug
and torture of body he made an attempt
on his life while in the upper rooms at
the Masonic hall. A physician was i'm
mediately summoned and Erestoratives ap-
piled and at about the hour mentioned he
was removed to his brothers house. He
will probably recover.

We were Informed this morning by
Mr.. King, who returned last evening
from the Upper Marias, says the River
Press, that prairie fire has been raging
in that section for three days and sweep
ing everything before it. The fire was
supposed to have been started from a
camp fire on the road above Fort Conrad.
It has destroyed the range north of the
Marias river to the Sweet Grass hills, q
distance of forty-five miles, and west
from the Marias to the Teton. Several
parties from the Benton and St. Louis
and other ranches were out with wagons
and provisions, doing all in their power
to extinguish the flames, but from last &C.
counts they were still under headway.
Mr.. King says the ranges of Jas. Wright,
on Pen d'Oreille coulee, and W. P. Tur-
ner, on the Marias, have been utterly de-
stroyed.

CATTLE TRAIN WRECKED.
A Manitoba Train, With Twenty Cars o
Cattle Ditched Near BufOrd-
Three Men Killed. Y

Last Friday night Matt Dunn's train of
cattle, 20 cars in all, in charge of Conduc-
tor Woods, left here for St. Paul. The
train made good time and the prospect
of reaching st. Paul on time was bright.
Saturday afternoon, between l and 2
O'Clock, when within one mile of Fort
Buford, the train ran into herd of cattle.
The shock was terrific. Eighteen of the
20 cars were ditched, precipitating the
cattle into ditch. Thirteen head were
killed outright, 10 were cut up and a
number Of others bruised. The balance
scrambled to their feet and scattered far
and wide over the prairie. The cars piled
on top of each other, wrecked, spllntered
and the pieces scattered in all directions.
John Perkins, head brakeman, was in
stantly killed, as were two carpenters,
employees Of the Manitoba. Their bodies
were taken to Minot. 1t is impossible to
state at present what the damage will be on
both sides, but in all probability it is very
heavy. Matt Dunn, who was on the train,
escaped without injury.
