In accordance with the act of Congress of
February - 1887, the Electors for President
and Vice President, chosen by the people at
the election in November last, met Monday
al their several State capitals, and, organizing
into what are called electoral colleges, pro-
ceeded to cast their votes, thus ratifying tine
will of the people, as expressed at the polls.
As the people do not vote directly for Pres
ident or Vice President, the result of the cleo
ton is not authoritatiyely known until the
Electors have met and discharged the solemn
duty devolved upon them. Ii is the Electors,
and not the people, who formally decide the
matter. 1t is well known, by the ofiici Il re-
turns that of the 40l Electors chosen, %;
were candidates upon the Harrison and Nor
ton ticket and los upon the Cleveland and
Thurman ticket. They SO voted Monday
and the election of Benjamin Harrison. for
President, and Levi p. Morton, for Vce-Pres-
ident, is now a fixed fact uLder the highest
forms of law. The vote thus cast remains
only to be counted by the designated authori-
ties at Washington.

A Baltimore special TO the New York Tri.
b,Re says Recent conferences between ex-
President Spencer. of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad, aud Senator German, ex-senator
Camden, Of West Virginia, and others inter-
ested in the West Virginia railroad, lead to
the belief in railroad and financial circles that
Mr.. Spencer will become the president of the
West Virginia line, which is likely, sooner
or later, to become a formidable rival of the
Baltimore aud Ohio. Messrs. Spencer and
Camden paid visit 10 Philadelphia a few

The Indian Outbreak.

The Commissioners appointed by Presi-
dent Harrison to treat with the Chippewa
Indians are in ST. Paul and were inter
viewed concerning the outbreak on the
Mile Laos reservation in Minnesota. Ex-
Senator II. VI. Rice, of st. Paul, said
The situation between the Government
and Indians &, Mile Laos has been a critical
one for many years, and the affairs have been
in very unsettled state. Difficulties have
repeatedly arisen regarding their ownership
of the land which they occupy. They are in
a wretched condition ard very much demoral-
lied. Whiskey is to be had all around them
aud is accessible at innumsrsble points on
the border of the reservation. The massacre
is no doubt directly attributable 70 drunken
spree. don't spprehend that it will extend
over any long period CT time.
The Mile Laes have not been a bad
people. During the Sioux outbreak in lss2
some of the Chippewas from the Upper
Mississippi, with Hole in the Day at their
head, were anxious to join the Sioux and
make war on the whites. They sept mes
ssges to the Mile Laos and asked them to
go with them and join the Sioux tribes.
The Mile Laos, however, were true to the
Government, stunning their own brethren
and rendering their service to the State.
But for the last ten or fifteen years, through
fear of losing their property, they have been
