l3rodIe's Alleged Feat.

NIAGARA, FALLS, Sept. 9.-No one
here has believed that Steve Brodie went
over the Horseshoe Saturday morning
In iubher suit. But just how the

John Rose, the well-kLown engineer.
ard John Lally, fremen Of the steamer
Maid OF the Mist. without at the time
knowing Of whom the party consisted,
witnessed nearly every movement. The
steamer was moored during the night at
her Canadian wharf, at the foot of the
hill up which Brodie was brought after
his alleged trip over the cataract. Engl.
neer Rose says that about 8 O'Clock FRI
day night he saw four men going down
tho bank toward the river brink, three of
whom carried bundles.
Twenty minutes later the men, minus
the bundles came back up the hill. From
his descrip lou these men were the Brodie
party. Six O'clock Saturday mornine
John Lally, the fireman, saw tho four
men go down the hill again, and again
come back after few moments, when
the sm allest climbed into a wagon in
waiting, followed by one of the others.
who commenced covering him with blan-
kets. Lally called Rose out on the deck
and he at once recognized the party as
the fame that had come down the bill and
left the bundles the night before. Two
or three bundles were then put into the
wagon, the other men so, in, land when
everything was in readiness the man
wrapped in blankets lay back In the
arms Of his comp inion and the driver
started up the hill ard towards Clifton. |
Before reaching the top the party passed |
a son OF Captain Carter and told him
they had Brodle, who had just gone over
The Falls. 1t would have bten impo:s'-
BILE for Brodic, after Liliy saw him, to
get above the Falls before he was SC en-
coming up the hill with his three com-
panloDs.

The educational institutions he reports IN

Chickasaws are concerned. The newspapers
are pstronized largely and creditable jour
mails abound in the territory. Tho agent
argues that change from the agency gov
eminent 10 desirable, and the subject
should be placed directly under the laws -
are the people in the states. He depaores
the fact that the country is the homo OF
large number of interlopers, who injure the
minds of the community. The ceeeions OF
the Creeks and the Seminoles of Oklahoma
was to their interest, but intimates that the
Cherokee Indians are not ripe enough yet
to properly deal with the Cherokee commits
sion. The railroads he gives great credit
for their aid rendered the Indian police IN
various ways, and he reports over ZOO gal
lans of Liquors destroyed by the police au-
thoritles. In conclusion he recommends
the extension of the police laws, the enlarge
ment of the power Of the United States
court, so as to give them original jurisdic-
ton in all cases of the five tribes; the grant,
ing the Indian access to the United States
court, and means to determine basis for
settlement of citiz anship; the establishment
of an industrial ira ming school at Muskogee;
the enactment of a law whereby individual
Indians may bring action for decision OF
their estate matters; provisions to relieve
ChicKasaw freedmen: for the payment OF
the principal of the Delaware annuities, and
the increase of pay for Indian police.

FOREIGN GOSSIP.

Relations Between Germany and
the United States.
LONDON, October ga special to the Llv-
erpool Courier, q government organ, says
the Samoa difficulty, which was supposed
to be settled, may yet give rise to serious
trouble between Germany and the United
States. Throughout the Berlin conference
the Washington government had its own
way on almost every point. Prince Bis
marck had determined to be cdhcihatory,
and went to the full length in submitting TO
American demands, bu6 Blame. since the
treaty has been scrutinlzed by him, has ex-
pressed dissatisfaction with some of the
clauses. Although he wont directly try to
withdraw from a treaty which he authorized
the American delegates to sign, he may indi-
rectly influence the senate to refuse ratifiea-
ton. The Berlin 70 eign office has further
cause for irritation with the Washington
government The new American minister
to Germany Mr.. Phelps. is delayed in as
Stunning his functions till January next,
making gap of nina months in the minis
terial department of the United States in
Germany. Mr.. Blaine has meanwhile sent
a consul general to Berlin, who is ignorant
of the German language and of consular
business. His rows with the German Of
cias, combined with the general dissatis-
faction prevailing IL official quarters with
what is called American bumptiousness,
may lead t. serious trouble. Prince Bis
marck is believed to have gone as far as he
will go toward cultivating friendship with
Washington.
