AGAINSTFREE COINAGE.
An Agreement Signed by Twenty
eight Republican Senators.

An Agreement Signed by Twenty
eight Republican Senators.
WASHINGTON. Special Telegram
There was great danger few days ago that
free coinage bill would pass the senate
but the postpopement of the vote seems to
have given the men who favored more
conservative measure time to pull them
selves together. An agreement was to-day
circulated by Senator Spooner, and was
signed by twenty-eight Republican sena-
tors pledging their votes against free coin
age and legal tender notes, although sew
eral senators reserved the right to vote for
free coinage unless some salts actorv silver
bill was passed. There are about dozen
senators who would not sign the agree
ment. among them being Sanders and
Power of Montana and Mitchell Of Oregon
There are five Democratic senators who will
not vote for tree coinage, and It is almost
apparent that free coinage amendment
would carry. Some of the senators who
would not sign the agreement say they will
vote for an amendment which will make a
satisfactory silver bill, meaning of course
that the amendment must make the bill
practically free coinage, before they vote for
free coinage measure pure and simple,
and if the twenty eight senators vote with
them they can pass it. There is feeling on
the part of the silver men IN the senate that
they ought to send to the house free coin
age bill end compel them to strike out the
bullion clause in the bill recently passed.
The Republicans OF the house are in consid-
cradle OF dilemma, and a majority of them
have determined to prevent free coinage il
possible.

CREATED A PANIC.
Serious Collision on the Wisconsin

Serious Collision on the Wisconsin
Central Near Chippewa Falls.
To-day serious collision &C.
CURED on the Wisconsin Central short line
between here and Eau Claire. The west
bound train was half an hour late, and an
engine was ordered to its AID. The short
line, which usually goes after the through
train. started for Eau Claire with two
coaches filled, mostly with women and
children. the conductor thinking the road
clear. When about mile from the station
the passenger and freight engine coming
from the opposite direction met with a
crash. Both engines were completely de-
molished, and Engineer Watson, of
the passenger, received serious injuries
about the head and a dislocated
shoulder. Fireman McNulty, of the freight
engine, was seriously but not fatally in
jured. Nothing was left of either engine
and the forward coach was badly smashed,
The passengers in the coaches escaped with
out serious injury. The second coach was
wrecked some and the passengers shaken
up lively. A panic was created, and it was
some minutes before the extent of the acct
dent could be learned above the screaming
OF women and children. The passengers
walked back to town. Where the blame
lies is not known. The train was running
at good rate of speed. The through train
was delayed here three and one-half hour
while the track was being cleared.

NOT AN OUTBREAK.

No Truth in the Lurid kilograms of
Trouble. With the Cheyennes In
Montana.
MILES CRY, Mont, Special Telegram,
-Long-headed people are .discov-
ering now, as they have done on former
and similar occasions, how much harm the
wildly sensational rumors about an Indian
outbreak in Tongue river valley are sure to
do the State of Montana in the East. Capt.
Harmon, an ex-army officer. and plains
man of experience and repute, brings ad-
vices from Ashland. at Tongue river agency,
as late as yesterday. There is absolutely no
foundation for fears of an outbreak The
Cheyenne braves are badly frightened at
the idea of being pursued by troops.
The women and children, naturally
more nervous than the males are
huddled together and Lieut.. Rivers Of the
First cavalry, is going about among them.
calming their fears. The postmaster at Ash
land, who was given as authority for the
statement that there was danger of an out
break of the Cheyennes and that wax was
in the air, writes the Yellowstone Journal
claiming that no such condition of affairs
exists. The lurid telegram about camps. of
Indians on surrounding hills and constant
signals by night and day, was as ludicrous
as it was false. Some one investigated and
found that the camps were sand hills and
the Indian sentries pine stumps. For
tunately Gov. Toole's emissary fell in with
Col. Swaine, Twenty-second infantry, in
command at Fort Keogh, before he had a
chance to distribute to cowboys and ranch
men the 100 rifles and 10000 rounds of am
munition he had at his disposal. Such a
distribution might have meant massacre,
but it would have been of the Indians, not
by them.
NO SERIOUS TROUBLE APPREHENDED.
HELENA, Mont, Special.-Gov Toole is
in daily communication with his staff sent
to Investigate the alleged hostile acts
or the threats Of the Cheyenne In
dians. Up to to-day no advices
have come to the governor from
his representatives leading him to appre-
bend any serious trouble. If the distant
settlers have been worked into scare, the
Cheyennes have by the movement OF
troops, had a worse fright. No In
dams have taken the war path
and no lives have been sacrificed. Cattle
have been killed. and this is all. One of
Custer county's largest stock growers, Capt.
Harmon, says: mo, there is moth
ing of danger in the situation"
The general opinion is that if kept upon
their reservation and properly rationed the
Cheyennes will remain wholly peaceable,
and give no more cause for alarm than the
Flatheads or their kindred tribes.

EDITORS RETURN.

The Minnesota Editors Return from
Their Trip to Washington.
The Minnesota Editors and Publishers
association reached st. Paul at $3.50 o'clock
Sundayafternoon. Every m mberofthe party
was delighted with the trip and the elegant
manner in which they were treated every
where they went. They could not say too
much for the accommodations furnished
by the Omaha, Northwestern, Baltimore &
Ohio and Kansas City railroads, while
words failed to express their appreciation
of the grand entertainment extended to
them by the congressman and other Mime
sotians in Washington. They were dined
and feted almost continuously during their
stay at the national capital, and the many
in their memories.
Chicago was reached on the return on
Saturday afternoon, and in the evening the
members of the party attended the theaters
or sought other amusement. On their ar
rival there, Joel P. Heatwole maintained
his reputation for gallantry by presenting
each lady with handsome bouquet of flow
ers and box of candy, and if it had been
in the ladies' power Joel would have been
made lieutenant governor or congressman
on the spot. The Kansas City road fur
nished the excursionists with special
train, which LETT Chicago at midnight on
Saturday. and also provided them with an
elegant lunch on board the train on Sunday.
The engine was handsomely decorated with
flags, and the train attracted attention all
along the route
The party breakfasted at Dubuque, where
a very pleasant incident occurred. 1t was
the presentation of a beautiful silver tea set
to T. S. Verbeck. the secretary of the asso-
citation, by the members as mark of ap-
probation of his services IN making all the
arrangements for the excursion. On account
of President L. P. Hunts lnness the work
fell on Mr.. Verbeck, who neglected moth
ing which would add to the comfort and
convenience of the party. It was a COM
plete surprise to Mr.. Verbeck, the tea set
having been purchased in Chicago and not
President Hunt delivered q very neat
speech in making the presentation, and
when Mr.. Verbeck recovered his selfpos-
session he made happy reply.
Presentations were also made during the
trip to c. H. Grundy. of the Omaha road;
c. H. Holdridge, of the Kansas City, and c.
II. Lord, of the Baltimore & Ohio Messrs.
Grundy and Holdridge received gold
headed canes, while Mr.. Lord was given a
diamond ring. just before arriving at St.
Paul the following additional resolutions
were passed bv the association:

At least five thousand people had assembled
to see man jump from a cable stretched

stood all around the lake, and hundred or
more were on rustic foot bridge about ten
feet above the ground and extend
ing from a blnff out across the
lake. The jumper made the descent
at about $50 O'Clock; He struck the water

all OF them were massed on a thirty-five

ure fell with crash. going down in the
middle. The foot paths under the bridge
were crowded with people, and upon these
the timbers fell, while those on the bridge
were thrown in heap in the center of the
cpan where it struck the ground: At least
twenty-five persons were injured more or
less seriously, but only eight were hurt so
badly that they had to go to hospital.
