The Denver News Makes an ofrer.

DENVER, Col, July 5.-The unofficial re-
port of Census Supervisor Sopris, that the
population of Denver would not exceed 49,
600, has created no little Indignation among
the citizens of this city. Hundreds of letters
have been sent to the city officials giving the
names of those who had been missed by. the
enumerators. On the strength of these re-
ports the Rocky Mountain News made prop
osltlon to made a canvass of the city at their
own expense and turn the result over to the
supervisor. The citizens committee having
this matter in charge, called meeting for
the purpose of considering Colonel Atkins
proposition. Colonel Atkins stated that the
expenses would be In the neighborhood of
$1,000, and he would begin work immedi
ately providing consent was given. After
some discussion it was agreed to raise the
money by subscription, there being differ
ence only between the News and the COM
mittee as to the mode of doing the work.
The money was secured in an hour, and men
sent out all over the city. The result of the
days work was nearly 5000 names that hao
never been taken. 1t is estimated that 1t
will take seven days to complete the work.

weekly Review of Trade.

NEW YORK, July S.-R. 6. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade says:
With the beginning of anew fiscal year we
have heavy disbursements and easier money.
better crop prospects and continuance Of
larger trade for the season than has been
seen in any previous year. At the same time
it is to be admitted that there seems to be
within the past week or two a little more
than the original hesitation or Stacking of
trade at the arrival of midsummer, and con-
fdence and the future. as affected by legls,a-
ton, is rather less strong than it was fort
night ago.
Momentary apprehension, excited by ex-
ports of gold. has been allayed by the dis
burSements in dividends and interest, said to
be the largest ever made at this season, and
exclusive of government payments estimated
at $T4. 600. 900 against SCI 200, coo last year.
Foreign advices and rates OF exchange do
not at present indicate danger of any serious
drain from abroad, and the interior money
markets are all firmly supplied at usual rates.
Failures have been fewer on the whole,
and liabilities of firms failing slightly smaller
than in the first half of the year, but IN some
important branches of trade the situation Is
plainly rather less healthy than it seemed SIX
months or year ago.
Railroad earnings thus far reported for
June show q gain of about 10 per cent. over
last year, but these also show less gain Tor
the latter than for the first half of the month.
This may be due in part to further cutting
of rates, attempts to adjust east bound
freight wars having thus far failed, and the
strife between Canada lines and those near-
est the border having grown more bitter.
The mileage of railroads built this year is
estimated at / 800, against !, 480 for the first
half of last year. and total of 5000 miles is
expected, but this does not go far toward
providing use for the greatly increased supply
of pig iron.
Wheat has gone 115c higher, the visible
supply having rapidly diminished. but those
who claim that much less than I0,OOO.OOO
bushels of surplus have been brought over
to the new crop, are compelled TO as
pute the correctness of the official and only
information of last years yield. Corn has
been q shade stronger, but oats are un-
changed. Pork products are steady and
raw sugar a shade lower. reported stocks In
all countries being 100000 tons against
667 ,0C0 year ago.
In general, the speculative markets have
been rather inactive and the level of prices
for all commodities July 1, though shade
lower than a week ago, or January 1, is fully
per cent. higher than at the same date last
year.
In all the reports received there is nowhere
complaint of collections, and confidence in
large trade next fall is almost universal.
The business failures occurring during the
last seven days. as reported, numbered 1873,
rs compared with 202 last week. For the
corresponding week of last year the figures
were 202

WIN Not Rattfv the Cor.pact.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July Further par
ticulars, giyingla complete insight into the
recent disturbances IN San Salvador. Central
America, have Just been brought to light
from semi-oficial sources. The sudden
death of General Menendez. president of
Salvador, the assumption of power by Cen
eral Carlos Ezeta and the attitude OF Guata-
mala in the present crisis, all have bearing
toward each other, and tend to show the pos
sible outcome of the difficulty.
There is feeling which pervades all Cen
tral America Just now that the ratification OF
the Central American uDicn, which was
agreed upon by the delegates of the five re-
publics of Guatemala, Honduras, Salvador,
Nicaragua and Costa Rica, In Salvador In
December last, will not be completed on the
18th of September next.
In the first place the treaty of the union
has to be ratified by each of the individual
congresses of the separate states, and this
has not yet been done by either Nicaragua or
Costa Rica. The treaty will only come be-
fore the Costa RIca congress in next Decem-
Der and before that of Nicaragua in February
of next year, as there has been no session of
congress in the latter republic this year.
1t is pretty clearly given to understand by
those two named republics that neither one
of them will ratify the Central American
union compact, as they are assured that a
scheme is on foot whereby it Is intended that
the Guatemala element shall predominant.
Neither the Nicaraguans nor the Costa Ricans
have a superabundance of love for the Guata-
malans. The reasons are historical ones,
and need not be repeated here.

eials Would Prove . Farce, and the
City Has no BfarshaI-Other
Plans Matching.

LEAvENwoKTH, KAN, July Am interest
ing point is apt to be raised when Judge Gro
zier grants the abating orders asked for by
Assistant Attorney General Black. Judge
Crozier advised Mr.. Black to apply for or
ders empowering him, by turning them over
to the proper authorities, to abate as nui-
sances all places where liquors are sold in
violation of an injunction previously granted.
In the present state of affairs here, to give
these orders to any of the county officials
would be mere farce, as the law would be
evaded in every instance where evasion was
at all possible. The county officers are not
given the orders to serve, the city marshal is
the proper official to be charged with their
serving. j. G. Doane is at present only act
ing marshal, the position of chief of police
Marshal Robinson. The point that would be
raised would be that, as Mr.. Doane is not
marshal, he would not be a person legally
competent to proceed IN the premises. An
ticipsting such point Colonel Anthony. at
the last meeting of the board of metropolitan
police commissioners, introduced a resolu-
tion to remove Mr.. Doane's legal disabilities
by appointing him marshal. Colonel Aber-
nathy was absent. Colonel Anthony voted
aye and Mr.. Lowe no and the appointment
was not made. 1t is very likely that some
action will be taken before the orders are
granted, as they will utterly fail of their
purpose if the marshal does not secure them.

Af,.r Tev,, Garlic Men.

WELLINGTON, July A report came over
from Moline saying that John Avery, a
former resident of this county, was found in
creek at that place with his throat cut from
ear to ear, several bullet holes In mis- body,
and card attached to his neck saying: 'This
viii be the fate of many more if they at
tempt to ship diseased Texas cattle through
here" Mr.. Avery has been engaged in the
his cattle we're fed in this city and shipped
over the Southern Kansas road. 1t seems
that several hundred head of cattle have died
from Texas fever around Moline during the
past month or so, and the owners becoming
enraged at their loss resorted to desperate
measures to suppress further shipments of
Texas cattle through that country. The re-
port is pretty reliable, and there can hardly
be doubt but what it is true.

Combination Prnnnsed

WICHITA, KAN, July 5.-The state central
committee of the resubmissionists held a
secret session here of five hours. No one
was allowed within who did not show the
physical evidence of resubmission. 1t is
given out that it has been decided to hold a
state convention September 9, at this place
Il may be recalled that the democratic state
convention viii meet here at the same time,
and it is generally understood that an effort
will be made on the part of the resubmis-
sionists to put up combination ticket with
the democrats. This question was thor
oughly discussed by the committee, and 1t
was decided unanimously to work IT in this
way, and they would make all possible con-
cessions for a combination. 1t was even
gwen out by one that in all probability, if the
resubmissionists could not get combination
ticket, they would attempt to have the result
mission following support the entire demo-
cratic state ticket. Outside the state ticket,
it is proposed to give attention to the legisla-
tive ticket in the various districts, and in
this way control the legislature for resub-
mission.

ATerrihle SnectanIe.

BKARDeTowN, Ill, July Sat the conclu-
sion of The racing and other athletic sports
here, it was announced that, as previously
advertised, Prof. Samuel Black, a young
Reronaut of this city, would make an ascen-
sion and parachute jump. After considera-
BILE delay the balloon, which was a MAN.
moth one, inflated with hot air, was about
ready for the ascent, when cries of "Iet go''
came from the crowd, and before everything
vas in readiness the balloon was set free.
Prof. Black pluckily caught the ring and
went up, though he had not yet Invested
himself of his outer suit and was otherwise
cot ready. The ascent was rapid. and in a
short time height of several thousand feet
had been attained. The eyes of the assem-
bled thousands intently watched for the ex-
pected descent of the parachute, but some
thing, what, no on one will ever know, was
wrong, so that it could not be severed. But,
far worse than this, it was soon discovered
that the parachute was on fire. Owing to
the careless or unfortunate manner of max
ing the start, spark from the furnace had
caught apparently in the crown of the para
chute, and when several thousand feet up
burst into flames before the horrltied gaze of
the spectators. Of course, the descent was
rapid when, as quickly occurred, the ropes
of the parachute were severed by the FIRE.
The body of the unfortunate aeronaut was
found about one and one-half miles south of
town In an oat field, terrible mangled.
Nothing of the parachute remained uacon-
sumed but parts of the ropes and rattan ribs.
Prof. Black, who was about % years of age,
mad previously made eight successful as
cents, one of which was at Quincy, and 9TH
ers at various places In Missouri. His father
and mother were among the spectators of his
fatal fight.

Western Passenger Association Fails to
Hold COntrol-HoW Rates Are Cut
and Prices Maintained at
the Same Time.

KANSAS CRY, Mo-, July THE new West
ern Passenger association has some work on
its hands in Kansas City which will soon de-
termine whether it is to be a success or a
failure. The biennial conclave of the uni
form rank of Knights of Pythias. at Milwau-
kee, Is what is causing the trouble. The
tariff rate for the round trip from Kansas
City is $3.50, but it is now openly charged
that rates have been made for SO and even
less There are half dozen roads that can
carry the knights to Milwaukee, but all the
business is going to be done by one or two.
So far as the Western Passenger association
has been unable to do anything.
One of the plans adopted by the compel
ing roads is to arrans., for the sale of so
many tickets at tariff rates and then give five
or SIX passes for every dozen or so tickets
sold. The expenses of the trip will then be
prorated by the party. Others talk of re-
bates. The Burlington is strongly in the
swim. 1t has been designated the official
route for the Kansas brigade of the Knights
of Pythias from Kansas City to Milwaukee,
the rate agreed on being one fare for the
round trip, or any lower rate named by any
competing line.
81 understand there is a $40 rate being
made to Milwaukee for the Knights of
Pythias conclave, and that some of the roads
are getting all the business while Others are
in the cold," said reporter to Santa Fe
official.
"Well, then, you understand the situation
perfectly" replied the Official. Then he
added: Chairman Goddard and the
Western Passenger association are going to
be swamped. When little thing ike the

Townsits Commissions Oppressive.

KNGFIsHEB, l. T., July 5.-There is great
dissatisfaction in the Oklahoma towns over
the manner in which the townsite law is to be
carried into effect. The following telegram
has been sent to the president from this
place:
To the president:-The townsite commits
sioners have no natural sympathy with the
poor people of Oklahoma, and knowing
nothing of the situation and conditions of
things here, under the instructions of the
secretary of the interior, have it in their
power, if disposed, to proloug their employ
ment to bankrupt our towns and distress our
people. For Gods sake do something, if
possible, to relieve US of this threatened OPP
preston. The people of Oklahoma have al
ready patiently borne greater wrongs than
any other body of loyal Americans have ever
before been called upon to endure. The un-
designed are the legally qualified village
trustees, appointed under the laws of the ter
ritory. John Miles, d. w. Solomon, c. P.

Idaho Bill Signed.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July Sin signing the
bin admitting Idaho to the sisterhood OF
states, July 8, the president disappointed a
number of people in that state. who had
hoped that the new state would take up her
position in line on the Fourth of July. The
reason for this action was an interesting one.
The president, it seems. found that the law
ordained that new star should be placed on
the American flag for each new state OIL the
Fourth of July succeeding It's admission to
the union. The president left it to Mr.. Du-
bois, the delegate from Idaho, to decide
whether to have the bill signed at once and
get the star or leave the star over until July
J, 1891. Mr.. Dubois chose the star now, and
as result the bill has been signed, and
forty-three stars are now upon the flag.

Governor Hill Gets Talked About.

INDIANAPOLIS, July s.-The opportunity
that was afforded to Governor Hill to visit
Indianapolis by the dedication of the monu-
ment of ev-Vice President Hendricks was
something in the nature of a God-send to
the chief executive of the Empire state. 1t
had been an open secret in political circles
at Albany for several months past that Hill
was DESTROYS of comforting with Ex-Governor
Gray and other representative democrats of
the Hoosier state. It was conceded, how
ever, that Hill could neither come to this city
nor Gray go to Albany without attracting a
considerable amount of public attention,
provoking more or less criticism and engen-
derlng suspicion that they were starting in
rather early to Saving circle" Hence the
New York governor was more than pleased
to receive as we'll as to accept the invitation
which afforded him an opportunity of being
here for couple of days during the present
week. That he used the time to good advan-
tage is certain, that he was diplomatic in his
methods of doing it was equally so.

secured room in this city. The news spread
quickly, and before the wagon with its
liquors had reached its destination the Meth
odist church bell, which was to be the alarm,
brought nearly the entire population to the
corner of Second and Main streets. The cit
liens seized the liquors, loaded them into
another wagon and they were hurried post
haste back TO the Santa Fe depot.
Two of the men left for their Missouri
home. One remains. but Is out of sight.

They Didn't Like to Answer Questions.

LONDON. July 5.-The announcement of
the fact that the law providing for the forth
coming census requires the religious belief
of every individual to be recorded has evoked
strong opposition through the country. By
way of justifying the inquiry the government
papers are reprinting the entire list of ques-
lions propounded by the census enumerators
OF the United States. Several of the tory or
gans have referred to these queries as inquis-
itorial in the extreme, and have asked their
readers how they would feel if they were
compelled to answer them. In view of the
smooth sailing which the United States
enumerators have encountered with such a
list of queries they do not think the peo-
pie in the United Kingdom can find much OBJ
lection to the mere statement of the denom-
ination to which they belong.

Pfkan Peak aVaIcano.

COLORADO SPRINGS. CoL.-One of the most
novel exhibitions ever devised for the cele-
bration of the Fourth of July was shown this
evening. The originator of the idea is
George W. Altemus, of Camden, n. ]. Two
barrels of kerosene and one of red fire were
taken up the summit of Pixies Peak to-day,
together with large supply of rockets and
other fireworks. Tonight at $50 bonfire
was built of the oil and powder and the peak
is brilliantly illuminated. The mountain
had all the appearance of an enormous vol
cano vomiting forth immense columns of
smoke and fire, and rockets shooting In all
directions added to the effect. The illumins-
ton can be seen for 100 miles In all direc-
tons.
