On the War Path.

The Apache Indians Of Arizona, who
were believed by many to have been
completely conquered, and placed in &
condition where they would forever
cease to annoy the whites by murderons
raids, have already opened the regular
spring campaign by killing one soldier,
and wounding two more, making it so
hot for the troops as to force retreat.
While there remain enough Apaches in
Arizona to constitute corporals guard,
it is safe to assume that these raids will
be continued. The following late Tucson
dispatch indicates unmistakably that
the spring campaign has already began

two renegade Apaches, March 25. and
exchanged shots with them, killing one
of the hostile Indians. The remainder
OF the hosti.es came to the rescue and
were driven to stronghold on top Of a
mountain which is almost impregnable.
Thence they opened a CALLING fire,
wounding three soldiers, one fatally.
The Indians kept up the fire from early
morning until late at night forcing the
troops to retire. Next morning the
troops again marched on the stronghold
but the hostiles kept up such an in.

exhausted from thirst and hunger, were

large amount of clothing, provisions and
saddles behind them. They moved
north. They had twenty-one horses
and plenty of arms and ammunition.

be much easier to locate wells with a
reasonable degree of certainty than in a
country that is broken up and the for
nation is irregular. This season has
every indication of being the boom year
in Wyoming oil, for not only in this
district, but throughout the entire length
and breadth of Wyoming's oil fields
there is active operations, and the con-
trast between this year and the season
heretofore is work in place of talk.
The biggest oil deal that has ever been
inaugurated in the United States is be-
ing consummated at the present time,
and as the amount involved is $l5,O00,-

Tit For Tat.

Well, here's situation. The Chinese
government is about to take a census of
the empire. 1t appears that as part Of
the census the Chinese government has
ordered that there shall be made an ac-
curate descriptive list Of every Ameri-
can found in China on the day tho GEN.
sus is taken. 10 every American then
found is TO be given "card Of identifi-
cation" and every American thereafter
found in China, whether merchant, stud
ent missionary, traveller or laborer,
without such card, is to be deported
at his own expense. or imprisoned not
more than five years, and kept in prison
until he shall be deportsd. And after the
date Of taking the census, no American
is to be allowed to enter China on any
excuse. From all ofwhich 1t would ap-
pear that we Christians of the United
States have in prospect q big dose Of
our own mdicine. The senate COM
mittee on foreign affairs has been seri-
ously considering this very subject in
secret for some time, but just what kind
Of logic they can devise for protest
against the census OF the Chinese
government Is not very easy to imagine.

influx has been very satisfactory, con-
sidering the season of the year in which
the land was thrown upon the market,
and the mistaken idea existing In the

settlers going upon the lands on the 10th

have placed themselves in position TO
begin spring farm work at the usual

The indications now are that Wvops
ing will be admitted to the union forth
with and without further serious op-
position. Yesterday the bill provided
for the admission of the territory passed
the House by party vote, and it is not
probable that it will meet with vigorous
opposition in the Senate. Woming has
every quality essential TO admission.
It's territory is large and rich in agricul-
tural and mining resources. 1t has a
respectable supply of male citizens, but
is as yet somewhat short of women. It's
growth in population and wealth has
been rapid and substantial It's school
system is excellent, and illiteracy is al
most unknown. It's only drawback is
an alarming lack of the sex whose pre-
sence in due proportion is essential to q
stable aid elevated social condition.
But statehood will tend to promote a
more normal state of society, and the
gentler sex will be attracted TO this
promising land of bachelors.
The organic law adopted by the con-
stitutionsl convention last year is unob-
jectionable, and Is in some respects an
improvement upon the common type of
American state constitutions. Its pro-
visions relating to local government are
commendable, and as for the woman
suffrage clause, if the Wyoming people
want woman suffrage they are entitle to
have it. Even if it could be demon
strated that the success of the expert
ment with woman suffrage in Wyoming
is attributable in measure to the pre-
vailing dearth of such voters in the ter
ritory. this clause in the constitution
should not prove bar to admission

CORNER ON SILVER.
Brokers Surprised at the Markets Up
ward Movement and the Cause.
On Account Of the Vast Amount of Bullion
Held BY New Workers the Govern
ment Must Draw on England.
Silver Question.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, May 10.-Statements
have been made during the last two
or three days to the effect that a large
corner in silver has been consummated IN
New York. The uncertainty which has
existed in regard to silver legislation
has helped manipulations greatly, and
the government is now compelled
to bring its silver from England. The
amount of bullion held by New Workers
Is estimated by the most extravagant at
$40 900 200 in bullion and certificates,
but conservative and trustworthy ac-
counts place the total amount of bullion
at 81 ,000, 900. At this season of the year
this is large amount, because the large
mines in Colorado are all closed
during the winter months and the output
is not SO great. While those figures
would cover bullion, it may be increased
several million dollars by the number of
silver certificates which have also been
purchased by manipulators. 1t is fact
that the government has been COM
PEELED to buy its silver in London, and to
complete the deal New York people have
been keeping even with the government
in purchases abroad. They have almost
covered the market in London; the price
there Is higher now than for some time.
Brokers thought the market would de-
cline, because it is India which has
great silver center to draw upon, but to
their surprise the market has continually
gone up. Englishmen who have
been following silver legislation in
this country have been taken by
surprise. and now that the worst is
almost completed they are recovering.
1t is also a fact that the silver offered the
government at the assay office IN New
York has been at q premium of from two
TO three cents.
Your correspondent called on Director
OF the Mint Leach this forenoon and
questioned him regarding the matter.
He did not deny the rumors of q
corner, but he would ssy that no
silver had been offered the government
at New York, and that it had bought
bullion in London. and was storing it in
the assay ONCE IN New York. It is also
storing what silver 1t had IN the West
and issuing certificates.

Condition of Winter Wheat.

WASHINGTON, May 10.-The official
report of the condition OF winter grain
on May l, makes reduction of l point
IN wheat, the average being 80.
The areas in which the roots
were not too severely frosted have
improved during the past month, on
others the injury is shown to be
greater than appearances indicated. A
loss in the condition isreported in Texas
from the ravage of an apps, or plant.
There is a decline through the Southern
belt from injury by the freeze
and the depredations of insects.
The averages of condition for states
of principal production are as follows:
New York, 81; Pennsylvania, So; Ohio,
50; Michigan, 70; Indiana, So; Illinois,
Ga; Missouri, 80; Kansas, 80; California,
SO. Southern states producing wheat:
Maryland, IS; Virginia, 95; North Caroli-
ma, 80; Georgia ,G5; Texas 81; Tennessee,
80. The reported progress of spring
blowing and planting indicates an
average state of forwardness of farm
work. 1t is evident that the depression
in prices of corn and oats and their
products has not affected wages of agri-
cultural labor.
WASHINGTON, May 10.-Crop report of
the department of agriculture makes a
reduction of point in wheat, the aver
age being 50.
