At the house of Treasurer W. X. Ander-

took bath and then proceeded to enter
tain themselves in the larder with wines.
They then went through the clothing in
the house, but got no money. The house
of President Charles B. Hull, of the
American Engle Tobacco Company, was
next visited. The burglars ransacked
boxes, bureaus, dressers, and the larder,
but got no money. W. X. Muir's house
was despoiled of edibles. At Mrs. d. A..
Ducharmes mansion they made too much
noise, and were scared off after getting
some jewelry. During the week q dozen
houses in the same neighborhood were
robbed.

BY THE RIVERS OF BABYLON.
The Expelled Boomers Patiently Waiting
For the Uncle Samalekites to Take Their
Denarture

The Expelled Boomers Patiently Waiting
For the Uncle Samalekites to Take Their
Departure.
GAINESVILLE, Tex, Jan. 26-Rsports
state that the soldiers sent from Fort Sill
for the purpose of clearing Oklahoma of
boomers have about completed the work
and that the expelled boomers are now en-
camped along the southern boundary of
the territory from which they have just
been driven.
The number of boomers that were en-
camped in the Oklahoma country prior to
the arrival of the soldiers on Wednesday
is estimated variously at from 5000 to
5000, and some place the number as high
as 1000. They came from all parts of the
country and so confident were some of
them that they would not be disturbed in
their occupancy of the country on account
of the probability that the Springer bill
would soon become a law, that they went
to work at once to build for themselves
comfortable homes.
The expelled boomers are MANY of them
in poor circumstances, but they are re-
ported to be quite cheerful and bear pa
tiently their vexations and disappoint-
ments in the hope that the days are num-
bered till they will be allowed to enter
again and enjoy in peace the coveted land.
Some of the expelled boomers now en-
camped near Purcell have threatened to
re-enter Oklahoma as soon as the soldiers
have left but they will probably not have
the opportunity soon to carry this threat
into execution, for the soldiers are now
guarding the southern boundary of Okla
hOma, and will continue to do so for some
time. 1t is also reported that United
States soldiers are also guarding the
northern boundary to keep back the BOOM
ers that would otherwise come on that
side.

Texas Electoral College Meets.

AUSTIN, Tex, Jan 26-The rejection of
the Presidential Electoral return of Texas
by Mr.. ingalls,, President pro tenn. of the
Senate, created a commotion here. The
opinion as voiced by State Elector Wood,
is that the action of Senator Ingalls,
in refusing the returns was absolute
ly unauthorized by any law found
in the revised statutes of the United
States, and that his object was to de-
lay the count. as evidenced by Mr.. Hoar's
resolution introduced in the Senate, be-
cause one or two Republican States were
behind with their returns. The action was
without any grounds of law or sense and
an outrage on the rights of the States and
Texas in particular. The Electoral COL
lege. however, met and corrected the re-
turn, putting it in full legal shape and
Colonel Robertson, the messenger, left
Austin for Washington Thursday night
and barring accident will reach that city
Sunday morning.

puN,S REPORT.
The Usual Weekly Review OF the State OF

The Usual Weekly Review OF the State Of
Trade In the Country.
NEW YORK, Jan. 96.-R- G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade says: 'The state
Of trade is unusually perplsxing, for, with
general complaint of the dullness, there
are evidences that the volume OF trans
actions is large. The payments through
banks last week were 25 per cent larger
than for the corresponding week last year
at New York and 16 per cent. larger at all
other cities. Railroad earnings also show
that traffic is large. The demand for
money is sufficiently active at nearly all
interior points, moreover, to indicate that
a large business is in progress. Yet it 10
Gndeniable that the prevailing temper is
one OF disappointment at the result OF
business since the new year began. and
this is not wholly explained by the steadily
declining prices of products. At Southern
points, after some depression, trade ap-
pears to be improving. In the Northwest,
trade is fully equal 10 that OF last
year, and at the same points clearly
larger. The supply of money seems to be
everywhere ample for legitimate demand
There are no indications of general un-
sourdness or over-straining of commercial
credits. In the great iron industry con-
c0AAPbAOA ObucT Judu TdllTOdQ puI~
poses appears to be larger than ever; but
there is serious disturbance. In conse-
quence the Iron Age reports q general
weakening which there is no use in blink
ing at and holds that furnaces which can
not face without loss q decline Of
fully 81 from present prices may wisely
suspend production. At Western points
Southern iron is offered at prices equiv
alanf frS Of h. l.
sidered equal to ST for Pennsylvania iron;
and large sales are reported at prices be-
low published quotations. A decline in
the price Of coke is considered probable,
and the anthracite coal market continues
weak.
The decline in wheat continues, the price
having fallen % cents for the week As
the prices reached this week were 93H to
S31! cents there has been some buying for
export, though not as yet for Great
Britain. Corn has fallen 1 cent and oats
are lower. Pork products have also de-
clined, mess about so cents per barrel;
lard 20 and hogs 10 cents per 100 pounds.
Cotton is a shade lower, with sales of 421,-
200 bales, and coffee = cents higher, with
sales of 233, 900 bags. The market for cop
per has been dull, and tin is lower at PIX
cents; lead is also weak at $3.50, but
spelter is quoted at cents. There is little
activity in groceries, but the sugar market
favors holders. The general average of
prices has fallen S of per cent for the
week.
The supply OF money here increases
both by remittances from the interior and
by excess of treasury disbur sements over
receipts, which reached 81. zoe, 900 for the
week. The exports of merchandise from
New York show a gain of Ii per cent. for
three weeks. The stock market is never
theless so firmly sustained that the aver
age decline in prices has been only 60 cents
per 500 for the week.

Uncle Sam Firm.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-Representativs
Morrow, of California, chairman Of the
subcommittee of the House Committee on
Foreign Affairs, intends to call the sub
committee together and get to work at the
earliest opportunity. He says that his
views on Samoan affairs are positive and
have been made known through the reso-
luton introduced by him in the House last
session. The statu quo at the time the
representatives of the United States, Ger
many and England met he said, would
have to be restored, and this would neces-
state the replacement of King Malietoa
in the position from which he was so un-
justly removed by the German agents and
sent to the Marshall islands.
