HUNDREDS OF scHooNERs

ST. LOUIS. Mo-, March s.-The latest
adyices from Oklahoma Territory are TO
the effect that not only scores, but hun
dreds of prairie schOOners filed with

moving over the Cherokee strip in all
direction, and that single men and parties

believed that the Government viii ind II
very difficult 10 suppress or even control
IT, Boomers are also collecting IN tho
Iowa reservation east of Oklahoma and
south of the strip in great numbers. The
trains arriving at Guthrie are loaded with
boomers with blankets, tents, and camp
equippage, and there is great activity on
all sides.
1t is believed that the Indian police, who
are under orders from Chief Maves to clear
the strip. will be totally unequal 70 the
work. Well-defned and authenticated
reports are in circulation in Guthries tnat

made an agreement for "a concentrated

WATER-GAS.
Its Fatalities in tho Quaker City Prove 1t

A Philadelphia telegram savs: Expert
ence with water-gas in this city seems 10
prove concluslvely that it IS more danger
Gus than coal-gas. The latter was used
for nearly fifty years. and so far as known
no deaths occurred from asphyXlation by
It. About two years ago water-gas was In
troduced Il was not used pure, but was
mixed with coal-gas. There have been
frequent complaints of its inferiority "a an
iluminaut, aud two deaths from asphyxia-
ton caused by 1t have occurred within SIX
months. John Gibney died FRIDAY from
tins cause. He and his family. consisting
of his wife and niece. were found lnseusi-
bic Thursday from gas escaping from a
burner that Gibney had apparently left
with the cock turned on while he was
drunk. The wife and niece are still in a
precarious condition. While this accident
and the other wero caused by drum ken
men, it is thought that if coal-gas had
been used the stronger smell thereof
would have caused alarm before the VIC
tins had been rendered insensible.
