night and the clvalry are under orders to
leave from there not later than IL O'Clock
tonight. with the aim of reaching Pine
Ridge agency at 4 o'clock Thursday
morning. The intention OF the COM
uander is to mass as many troops as
possible at the same moment in the
vicinity OF the. agency. Agent Ryan. at
Pine Ridge, has telegraphed the general
repeatedly and when the order was issued
ceDtering the soldiers in the vicinity Of
his station. he begged that the informa-
ton might be withheld from the newspa-
pers. He feared it would reach the saw
ages as soon as it would be settled, and
before the troops could prevent it the In
dams would massacre every white person
found on the reservation. 1t has later
been announced that the Indians at Rose
bud have risen en- tnasse and were pro-
ceeding to Pine Ridge. the adjoining
agency, which is about fifty miles distant

PARIS. Nov, 19.-Gen. Seliverskoff,
Russian agent in France, died today from
the effects of a mysterious bullet wound
in the head. One report says a stranger
called upon him yesterday at his hotel,
and after he departed Seliverskoff was
found by his valet unconscious and shot
in the heal. Other reports state that
the general received no visitors. Nc
weapon was found and the furniture was
not disarranged. The police attach some
suspicion to the valet.
The authorities are conducting an in.
quiry into Seliverskoff's death. The
police are convinced that the valet had
nothing to do with the shooting. The
evidence clearly points to assassination.
The assassin is believed to be a Russian
Pole named PodelskY, a servant who had
absconded.

Harvester Company.
Jay Gould Secures Control of
the Pacific Mail.
He Also Increases His Union
Pacific Holdings.


CHICAGO, Nov. I0.-There was organ
lied in this city during the past few days
one of the largest corporations In its line
in the world. The charter was fled in
Springfield TO-DAY and the new company
will be known as the American Harvester
Company, for the manufacture of harvest
ing machinery, with a capital stock of
s35, 00O, 900. Among the directors will
be Cyrus II. Mccormick, WIN. D%erring,
Walter A. Wood, Lewis Miller, A. L.
Conger and A. s. Bushnell. Col Con-
ger, when questioned by an Associated
Press reporter this evening. said the pres
ent demoralized condition OF the harvester
business neeessitated the formation
of the new company. Many fail
ures have occurred during the
past few years, entailing immense
losses, The cost of materials has been
advancing so that it BEGAN necessary
either to raise the price OF machines TO the
farmers or through economy produce and
distribute them more cheaply as it Is the
purpose OF this new organization to do.
1t Is no less to the interest of the binder
manufacturers than OF the farmers them
selves that the latter should obtain binder
Irvine at reasonable prices, and the hope
OF effecting this object is one Of the
important reasons for the formation of
this. company. We do no expect to
check competition, but shall, possibly.
carry on the manufacture OF the present
machines at several different works.

KANSAS Cry, Nov. 19.-The Chero-
kc Strip Live Stock Association has
determined to proceedings
against the United States government for
the latter's action in forcing the cattlemen
to vacate tho Cherokee strip before the
expiration of the lease with the Cherokee
Indians. The company brings suit
against a tenant who declined to pay rent
because the company lease was not valid.
This salt is expected to determine the
validity of the company's lease. Then the
company will sue the United States
government for losses sustained in the
premature marketing of their cattle.

WASHINGTON, Nov. l9.-The war de
partment this morning received a dis
patch from Gen. Miles, st Chicago, in
which he says: Reports are of the
same threatening tenor from Pine Ridge.
Troops have been ordered to that agency
and Rosebud to give protection and encour-
age the loyal and restrain, if possible, the
turbulent. The military are using every
effort possible TO restrain and avoid the
outbreak or at least bridge over the time
between thus and severe cold weather. 1t
Is believed that any other course may pre-
c~ipitate hostilities. Thus far no Indians
are reported as having left the reservation
with hostile intent Gen. Schoield sent
Areply approving Gen. Miles course and
adding that the cavalry and artillery at
Fort Riley and all other available troops
will be placed under FOUR orders If the
emergency seems to require it
Gen. Miles was seen by 40 Associated
Press reporter thus evening and was asked
for the latest Information from the In
dian troubles. The same turbulent
sput among the Indians is manifested at
ROSEBUD, Pine Ridge and Cheyenne

I've companies of infantry will reach Pine
Ridge tomorrow morning. At the same
time Lieut.. Col. Smith will reach Rose

forces will be sufficient to protect the

Affected spirit OF turbulence. He has

Referring to the dispatch saying it was
rumored that an outbreak had taken
place at Rosebud agency, the general said
he considered the story premature. Both
Generals Ruger and Brooke are acting
with the utmost discretion and care to
prevent hostilities, protect the settlements
aud maintain government control over the
Indians. The dargeris not over, said he,
however much that result might be de-
sired. The general added that the disaf-
iected Indians were scattered over several
hundred miles of territory and aggregate,
10 round numbers, 5000 warriors. The
troops scattered over this territory
number about 5000 and not more than
1900 Of this number are effective

Monday afternoon about $3.50 o'clock
Undertaken HRrvey's gloomy wagon
drove hurriedly up to the entrance of a
well known photograph gallery and two
men carried a black coffin into the build
ing and up to the floor in the operating
room. 1t was met there by the pho
tographer and a number of newspaper
men, and shortly afterward a woman,
youthful and beautiful, clad in cash
mere and lace, with flowers at her feet
and her white hands folded peacefully
across her breast, lay in the somber box,
with her long brown hair streaming
over the crumpled satin lining, as pale
as her cream tinted skin.
The men stood about the coffin whis-
pering as the undertaken touched a
flower here, a leaf there, and tucked in
a Careless wandering curl, while the
photographer moved a hand out of its
stiffness or turned the face where the
light would fall upon it to a better effect
before the lens of the camera. 1t was
an uncanny scene, and if the sunshine
had not taken the chill off of the place
it would have been as ghostly and
CHASTITY as a charmed house.
When all was ready the photographer
caught the picture on his plate and then
the lid of the affair was removed for the
friends of the family to step forward and
take a last look at the body, for it i'm

Merely a low price is not an evidence OF

but we get them by marking down the
broken lots and slow.selling lots of good
quality. These bargain garments adver-
tise themselves. If you want a serviceable

usually supply much better value than
the price asked would buy in the regular

our r~ightly-made garments are intended
to supplant the custom work. Therefore
