INJURY DONE BY STOCK JOBBERS
The Indebtedness "Bunched" and the
Trouble StOPped-Next Meeting of the
Western Association - The Three
Eyed Road In Outer Darkness.

CHICAGO, Sept General Solicitor
Thurston, of the Union Pacific, who
was in this city yesterday, said there
was no foundation for the report that
Gould intended to give up control of
that road, or that the property would
go into the hands of receiver. The
Union Pacific, said he, had a floating
debt of So, 900, 600, created when it
purchased the Oregon railway and nav
igation property. This was placed in
the hands of a great many people.
When somebody in Wall street wanted
to make drive on Union Pacific, hold
ers of these securities were induced
to demand immediate payment Mr.
Gould was then in the far west and Mr..
Ames was in Europe. 1t did not take
them long, however, to make arrange
ments whereby the debt has been
punched and placed with Drexel, Nor
gan & Co., and that too, at lower rate
of interest than was being paid before.
The Union Pacific was never in as good
condition as now.

DIsTURBER REJECTED.
CHICAGO, Sept 9.-Chairman Midge-
ly is away on his vacation, but he left
behind him a ruling which created
something of a sensation when it was
read at the meeting of the western
freight association. 1t was that the
application of the Indiana, Illinois &
Iowa road for admission to member
ship in the association was denied be-
cause it had not met with the unani-
nous approval of the members The
only companies which had voted
adversely to the application were
the Rock Island, the Chicago,
Milwaukee & St Paul and the Chicago,
St Paul & Kansas City, but the chair
man decided that the objection of these
three roads should be regarded as suf
ficient to keep the applicant out of the
association.
Of course there was a strong protest
from the representatives of the Bur-
lington and the Santa Fe, who argued
that Chairman Midgely had no right to
make such a ruling, since there was
nothing in the agreement requiring
unanimous consent for the admission
of a new member. The association,
however, declined to reverse the chair
mans decision, and the Burlington and
Santa Fe were forced to accept their
defeat.
The result: will be that the Burling-
ton and the Santa Fe must file with the
chairman sworn statement of their
divisions with the Indiana, Illinois and
Iowa line on Missouri river traffic. 1t
was to avoid this exposure that they
tried to get the latter company into the
association. Many subjects of minor
Importance were disposed of by the
meeting

MILITARY EDUCATION
SHOULD BE DISSEMINATED THROUGH
THE STANDING ARMY.

That Is the Advice offered by Brigadier
General Kautz, Who Will Soon Retire
A Scheme to Get Better Men to Enlist
Indian Wars on the Wane.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-Brigadier Gen
enal A. V. Kautz, Commanding the De-
partment of the Columbia, in his annual re-
port to the War Department, speaks of the
repeated troubles between Indians and
white settlers in the Kootnai river country.
The Indians in that section are not pro-
vided with an agent and seem to have no
one to look to for aid or counsel. General
Kautz says that in the near future great
increase in the number of settlers will pre-
cede the building of the great Northern
Railroad and trouble will follow unless
some provision is made in anticipation. In
closing his report he says:
shall in a few months close my duties
on the active list, and this is the excuse l
have for offering what consider the most
valuable suggestions that my long service in
the line of the army, which began 45 years
ago in the grade of private, can furnish. l
regard the highest duty of our small army
in the time of peace to be the acquisition and
dissemination of military.knowledge among
the people. To this end the army should
become to a certain extent an educational
nSCltut1On ana eacQ posi-, as Idr as pOSSlDle,
q military school with the object OF qualify
ing every enlightened man, as far as possi-
BILE, to be able to instruct and prepare the
citizen who volunteers to serve in time OF
war.
For this reason the recruits for the army
should be obtained from the young, am
bilious and energetic sons of patriotic citi-
zens and the army should cease to be the
refuge of the inefficient, indolent and wan
dering element Of the country The re-
cruits should be furnished from all parts OF
the Union in proportion to the population,
to serve, as a rule, only one enlistment, and
then be returned to their homes to serve as
officers in the event of war and as instructors
for the State military organizations in time
Of peace.
The support Of the Government in this
would raise the standing OF the enlisted
man at once to one of responsibility and Sc
cure the enlistment of the proper material,
which cannot now be obtained in view of
the low estimation which the average CIV
ilian entertains for the soldier in time Of
peace. 1t would also give distinctive and
republican character to our army, which
regard as very essential under our form of
government. We cannot hope to popularize
the army SO long as we ape the methods and
details of European armies, and there Is no
necessity for so doing. The
probable speedy disappearance Of danger
from Indian wars gives importance to the
consideration of other ines Of duty for the
army to justify its maintenance.

STOCK ON RANCHES.
A Very Large Increase in This Industry BY
the Census


10 WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-The Census
Office to-day issued bulletin containing
statistics of the range cattle industry in the
United States, not including cattle on
farms. The bulletin says that since the
census of 1880 great changes have taken
place in the industry of range cattle. Large
areas once used as ranges are now inclosed
as farms, and the cattle are driven to new
and distant feeding grounds. A large por.
tion of Texas, Colorado, Oregon, Washing
ton and California, one-third of Kansas and
one half of Nebraska have been converted
into farms during the last decade
Owing to the difficulty in exactly defn-
ing the lines of range and farm stock, and
to avoid Implications, only the stock known
to be outside of that taken as farm stock is
included in the tables of this bulletin. 1t
is found that in June, 1890, there were
upon the ranges 517, ,128 horses, 5,433 mules,
IA, 100 asses or burros, 6,S28, 1872 cattle, 6,
676, ,902 sheep and 1926 swine. The sales
of horses in 1889 amounted in value to ST.
41s, ,2O5; of cattle, S17, ,913, ,712; of sheep, 81
669, ,663, and of swine, S27, 1872 The total
number of men reported upon ranges
in care of this stock is 1890 The in
dustry is found to be more generally pros
porous at this time than for several years
previous.

VETERANS TO VISIT WASHINGTON.
Delegates From Pittsburg, Allegheny and
steubenyille to Call on the President

Delegates From Pittsburg, Allegheny and
steubenville to Call on the President.
WASHINGTON, Oct. ..12-[Special Dele
gates of the Union Veteran Legion from
Pittsburg, Allegheny and Steubenville,
will pass through this city tomorrow on
their way to the annual encampment at
Reading, Pa, on Wednesday and o parade
to take place on the principal streets of the
city if the weather is propitious. The local
encampment No SO, will meet the visitors
at the Baltimore and Ohio depot and escort
them up the avenue to the White House,
where they will be received by the Presi-
dent. After dinner has been served, the
four bodies, the locals joining the visitors
in q special car, will proceed back to the
depot and 60 to Reading.
1t is expected that there will be fully 100
people here from the three posts outside of
town and there will probably be so more of
Encampment SO in line, that number having
agreed to go to Reading. There are about
$50 members in the organization in this city.
An interesting incident of the occasion Is
flying visit paid to the city Friday night
by General Daniel Butterfeld, of New
York, who is prominently mentioned in
connection with the position of Com
mander of the Union Veteran Legion, to be
dent of the Society of the Army of the Po-
tomac, He was on his way home from
visit to Chicago for the purpose of attend
ing the unwilling of the Grant monument,
and while in town he called on Mr.. o. d.
Thatcher, the adjutant of the local encamp-
ment, in relation to matters of interest to
the Legion.

She Plies the Lash Vigorously on Her Hus-
bands Boon Companion.
ZANEsvILLE, Oct. 12-[ Special. IA first
class sensation was caused here this even
ing by lively horse-whipping affair on one
of the principal streets. William Owings,
a well-known man about the town, was the
victim, while Mrs Charles Harris, highly
respected young married woman, inflicted
the chastisement. According to Mrs Har-
ris' story, her husband went away Saturday
evening with Owings, and she has not seen
him since This evening Mrs. Harris met
Owings on the street and asked where her
husband was. As she says, Owings applied
an epithet to her instead of answering her
question.
This, with her other wrongs, was too
much for Mrs. Harris, and she repaired to
a store, where she purchashd heavy horse
whip and started in pursuit of Owings
She found Owings and her husband together,
and without word began plying the whip
over the head of the former A great crowd
gathered and Owings retreated into the
middle of the street, followed by Mrs Har-
ris, who applied the lash at every step,
while her husband calmly looked on from
the sidewalk. Mrs. Harris was arrested
later on in the evening, charged by Owings
with assault and battery. She will have
hearing in the morning. The whole trouble
dates back several years, and will make an
interesting court story if it ever gets that
far

INSPECTING CONTRACT SCHOOLS.
The Superintendent Ordered to See That
Practical Advantages Are offered.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE Commits
sioner of Indian Affairs has written letter
to DIR. Dorchester, Superinten dent of In
dian Schools, in which the latter is in
structed to visit the contract schools and
subject them to the same thorough inspec-
tion which is made in the case OF Govern
ment schools. The Superintendent is also
to make special inquiry into the character
and qualifications OF the employees of the
contract schools, to compare the course of
study in those schools with the course in the
Government schools and to point out any
defects or superiority which may be dis
covered in it. The Commissioner saws it is
the purpose hereafter to promote pupils
from the contract schools to Government
schools where it is found that the course of
study is defective or the facilities for in
dustrial training are wanting, or for other
reasons pupils cannot receive as good an
equipment for life in the contract schools as
they can in the Government schools
The Commissioner says: "While, of
course, it is no part of the plan of the police
to interfere with the distinctive religious
teachings in these institutions, nor to in any
wise hamper them in their missionary work,
it is important that the practical education
of these pupils in the way of fitting them to
earn living shall not be neglected, but
that they shall receive that training which
shall prepare them for the competitions of
life"

Wild Grapes Favored Nicely by the Nip

The leaves that ''have their time to fall

have begun that operation to large extent
SO far as the naples are concerned. Some
people were writing about Indian summer
some weeks ago, during the torrid spell,
forgetting that the red mans summer does
not put in an appearance until after
Natures alchemy has transmitted the
emerald of the forest into more beautiful
colors than any artist can emulate, Indian
summer is not due, in the ordinary course,
for month to come.
The frost yesterday morning cooked much
vegetation and put the finishing flavor on
wild grapes. 1t didn't do much harm, as
it was delayed nearly month to atone for
its unreasonable visits early in the summer.
The tomato vines were robbed of their
strength, but the green fruit was not in
jured and the ladies will now hustle to get
their picallilli made. There was a thin
coating of ice frozen in some localities.

Great Fears for Her Crew Until Their Safe
Arrival Was Learned.
LONDON, Oct. 12.-The steamship Devon
shire, from Barrow for New York, has been
passed at sea, abandoned. Never has the
loss of steamship at sea caused so much
excitement since the time of the great Dan
mark disaster. For time no one knew
what had become of the crew, and it was
believed that the chances were that the cap
tain and his SO men were lost. The Devon
shire was abandoned about $50 miles west of
Barrow. She sailed from Barrow Septem-
Der 80. She was, if all reports are true, in
ballast. She was twin screw steamship,
1866 feet long, 36.6 feet broad and 256 feet
deep, and was worth at least 100000.
1t was learned later that the British steam
er Norwegian, which arrived at Glasgow
yesterday from Montreal, had on board the
crew of the British steamer Devonshire.

England,s Reply to Turkey.

OF the Russian volunteer feet, and as to the
action taken by the Sultan in that matter.
England's answer to the note the Porte

tally from the replies sent by the other
powers. The note sent to the Porte through
the British Ambassador enters into full
explanation of England's position in the
matter, and clearly defines the ground she
takes.
