EMPLOYEES SAVINGS.
The Illinois CentraPs Co-Operative ]

The Illinois CentraPs Co-Operatiye In
vestment Scheme.
CHICAGO, July S.-Concerning the
published rumor that the officers of the
Illinois Central Railway Company were
seeking to induce the employees to in
vest their savings in securities of that
corporation, President Fish said TODAY
that the company had no stock for sale.
but proposed to assist any of it's officers
or employees to buy one share at time
at fair market price, the purchaser to
pay in sums of not less than $5. On
these sums interest will be credited, and
when the share is paid for he can, if he
wishes, begin the purchase of another.
1t is hoped to enlist every frugal person
in any way connected with the railroad
as partner, on basis of the utmost
liberality to the small proprietor.
1t is not proposed to form
savings bank or benevolent
association, the experience of the COM
pany being that the men prefer to han
die these matters themselves. A pur-
chaser may at any time have his
contract cancelled and money returned
to him with interest. Thus the COM
pany assumes the entire risk of fall in
the price of shares and expense of
doing the work. President Fish be-
lieves this plan, properly presented, win
induce greater thrift among the men.
and through their example spread
among the people the habit of saving
and investing in the securities of the
railroad which runs past their doors.
The ultimate object is to produce =
community of interest between citizens
and railways, which shall give perfec-
tion of railway service and be the most
profitable OF investments for the small
proprietor of sound dividend-payi
railway shares.

STARVING REDSKINS.
Much Suffering Reported at the Cheyenne
Agency.

ST. PAUL, July S.-A Pioneer Press spe-
cial from Pierre, S. d., says: News from
the Cheyenne Indian agency confirms
the surmises of trouble at that point.
About 1000 Indians are at the agency,
and they created disturbance today
when they found that no rations could
be issued until Tuesday. The delay is
caused by the fact that cattle were not
driven in from the range, leaving the In
dians almost starving from Monday un-
til tomorrow. The Indians also object
to be counted in the census, and the
census will be taken with great diff
Guilty. The condition Of the Indians is
deplorable. Yesterday twelve died of
consumption and lung fever, and the
physician had many more serious cases
on his hands. The sickness prevails
almost entirely among the semi-civ-
ilized.

American Rif1emen Cordially Received

BERLIN, July 8.-The Independent
New York shooting corps, in full uni
form, paid visit to Bismarck TODAY.
William Weber expressed the thanks of
the party for the privilege given them
OF visiting the great man to whom
Germany owed her unity. Bismarck ex-
pressed pleasure at the visit, and said
he had always striven to maintain good
relations with America. In his opinion
it would have been foolish to quarrel
over such small question as that Of
Samoa, and he had, therefore,
worked energetically to effect an ami
cable settlement. At the luncheon that
followed, the ex-chancellor was in q
CHEEKY mood, and related many interest
ing anecdotes of his life.
