LYNCHnURG, Va, July Fit Is stated
upon what seems reliable authority that the
freight conductors and engineers on the Nor
folk aud Western railroad insist upon a re-
turn 90 the old schedule by which trains
will start from this city instead OF from
Crewe. aud that their demand will be COM
piled with.
The work OF pulling down the machine
shops IS nearly completed and the round
house and tank are also being removed. In
a few DAYS the work OF demolition Will be
completed and the site OF the proposed pas
senger depot Will be ready for the commence
ment OF that important improvement.

They have immense crops out which are
looking fine.
jacob Parrish. Of Roanoke county, took a
lot Of twenty.tbree cattle to Philadelpblaand
sold them for $3.50.
The farmers Of Roanoke county held a
meeting last Monday to discuss the adyisa-
billty OF holding back the sale OF their wheat
for several weeks In order 10 secure better
price for 1t il possible than the present mar
ket quotations.
The pc ach cropoi c. Niniuger. who lives

A Jonnstown (Neb.) telegram says: At 6
O'Clock last evening John Anderson was still
in the well. Last night he bad chill aud
combined OF feeling cold, but by rubbing
his limbs he got the circulation started snd
soon rallied. The new well Ia down fifty
eight feet, and the diggers are at work tun-
nelhHg to the old well. They think they
will strike IN about three feet below the nan.
From this tunnel they aim 70 let the boards ex.
tend out nearly across the old well, so rs to
form platform. Anderson says II they do
this be can come 10 them. The great danger
will be that when they strike the old well II
may give way and let sand in on the man and
smother him instantly.
They talk with him frequently and he gives
them his views as 10 the best way 10 work.
Yesterday he asked shout bis cattle and
wanted 10 know who was attending to them.
When asked II he would like 10 have them
nut a pipe to him m The old well and try TO
get food and water to him. IFS answer was,
"No.v He said II was too risky aud he was
unwilling to take such chances for a few
luxuries. At 10 O'Clock the dlggers were
frightened out OF the new we'll Just as they
were about 10 reach the old one. Anderson
told them that his hours were getting short
and II they rescued him It must be done
soon.
Hearing this Archer, as last resort, went
into the old well aud began working again.
He soon discovered there was only twenty
six inches OF sand and boards 10 go through.
After getting the sand away he raised one
board and gave Anderson food snd water,
the first be has had for six days. The first
thing given him was q wet rag. then bottle
OF water, after which hard biscuit. Ander.

Wall yesterday morning TO answer the
charge Of violating the United States postal
laws by opening letter directed to Mr.. John
T. James, which contained a mOney-order
for six dollars. There were several wit
nesses, and the testimony was volumi-
nous. The Commissioner was satisfied
from the evidence that Campbell was
authorized as member OF the firm
TO open business letters TO James, and the ac-
cused was honorabiy discharged. Mr.. W.
F. G.. Garnstt represented Mr.. Campbell
and Colonel Gibson, district attorney, was
present for the prosecution. This was a

ship Wyauoke, Of the Old Dominion Line.
was drowned yesterday morning about 10
o'clock al the cOmpany's wharf in Rockets.
The vessel arrived about four hours before
this time. Her cargo had been unloaded. and
Stewart was IN the act OF entering her wheel
to make some repairs therein, when plank
on which he was walking from the wharf
slipped from its fastening on the boat and
let him down into the river. The plank
must have struck him when be was falling
and knocked him senselesS, for he never ut
tered a sound. Some OF the men aboard the
ship heard the splash In the water, and look
ing around at once realized what had hap
pened.
The unfortunate man rose once, but sank
agan Immediately. and although one OF his
associates diyed after him at once and the
others did everything they could to rescue
him, their efforts were utterly fruitless. His
body was recovered by divers about an hour
aiterward, and Coroner Taylor was sum-
moned, but deemed an Inquest unnecessary.
The body was carried to SutherlanPs under
taking establishment and embslmed aud was
taken North on the Wyanoke, which sailed
during the afternoon.
Mr.. Stewart was twenty-seven years old,
unmarried, and lived in Brooklyn, \. y, TO
which place his remains Will go. He was a
man Of fine physique, rather handsome, and
was very popular with his associates.

COLORED COUNCrLnEN.
Their Presence at the COLLATION. ON
the 18th Insfnnt.

On the night OF the 18th instant By invita-.
ton OF the Electric Railway Company the
Council and number OF other citizens took
a ride over the line, aud upon returning to
the city were served with lunch at the
Commercial House, where speeches were made
by Mr.. Maurice b. Flynn and others.
Among the guests Of the occasion were the col
ored members from jackson Ward, an "in-
cident" which has been the subject OF con-
siderable comment here In Richmond, while
ia some northern papers ii has been repre-
sented as an attempt TO "capture the negro
votev for "the Bourbon party" In con-
yersation with a Dispatch reporter yester-
day Mr.. William X. Trigg, president OF the
company, remarked that this thing had em-
barrassed hin very much indeed; but, said
he, with characteristic frankness, "there's
no use in blaming Mr.. Flynn or anybody
else but me, though never for moment did
| suppose the whites and blacks were TO be
brought together In the way they were. L
take It for granted that on all such questions
as that my position is perfectly under

be abreast OF the enterprises and de-
velopment OF the city, aud being i'm
pressed by the interest the New York owners
Of our car line took In Rlchmond's growth, l
some time ago talked with a leading public
officer as TO the pr0priety OF carrying the
Council over the Union Passenger railway.
He agreed with me that II would be good
thing. thereupOn got from Mr.. Flynn a
promise to come on and be with the Council.

thought. At the end OF the streetcar ride
and as preface to the speeches 1t seemed TO

for at the Commercial House."
"a fine champagne supper II was, ! have
heard said," intsrpOlated the newspaper
man.
Nonsense" answered Mr.. Trlgg, "the
bill was $50 for sixty tpeople. From that
you can tell how fine it was"
"Well," continued Mr.. Trigg, al was
about to say that the presence OF the colored
members as an Objectionable element never

STANDING Rock AGENCY, OAK, July o.
Sitting Bull Is still absent but the council
is going on just the same. Judge Wright
occupied most OF yesterday explaining the
provisions OF the proposed treaty. lie was
listened to respectfully, but as far as can be
learned no change in the sentiments OF the
Indians has been effected. Mad Bear and
other chiefs talked against the treaty, but
Black Bull. who has already adopted the
ways OF white men and runs a little farm
about ten miles from the agency, IL willing
to sign II. In the private council Tuesday
night Gall. Two-Bears. John Grass, aud
other chiefs talked against the treaty, and
declared that they would not sign.
The commissioners are presenting the case
IN the strongest possible way TO :he Indians,
and II dealing with white people could close
the negotiations in one day, but the indians
are suspicious. They remember the Black
Hills treaty. They realize that they got the
worst Of II In the sale OF the land, and say
that the white men beat them because they
were smarter; that they intended TO sell
only the ground, and not what was in IT,
They think that perhaps there Is great
wealth 10 the soil that the Government wants,
and that they are liable TO dispose OF 1t too
cbeaDly.

A. w. sreider Gored by n BuiI.

Yesterday morning about half.past @
O'Clock Mr.. A. w. sIeider, who is employed
on Mr.. G. ii. Johennirig's farm (Chatsworth)
below Richmond, in Henrico county, went
into the stable IN company with another man
to clean out the stall in which very vicious
Alderney bull was quartered.. The inten-
ton was to take the bull out before they set
to work. The bull bad ring In his nose TO
which stick was attached, and also rope
around his horns with which he was led in
the stall. The man in company with Sleider
loosoned the rope from the stall and
Seider, taking hold OF the stick, told his
companion to let go the rope altogether, which
be did. Immediately the bull made lunge
at Sleider, spHntering the rod and tossing
him I'D several times. Once he was tossed
to the ceiling OF the stable. The cries OF
Sleider attracted the attention OF the colored
yardman, who rushed in with piichfork In
his hand and succeeded in running the buh
Of after Sleider had been badly gored and
bruised.
Drs. Lewis Wheat and j. W. Mitchell
were summoned to attend the wounded man,
who was found apparently llieless, but I'M
der the attention of the physicians revived
sufficiently TO talk.
