Foul Play Suspected

A dispatch from Cleveland Ohio
says: a wealthy merchant of this citv
Ralph Worthington, has just returned
from hunting expedition in the yicin-
ity OF Jackson's lake, Wyo.. with three
nephews of Andrew Carnegie. He made
careful inquiries there concerning the
cause OF Robert Ray Hamilton's death.
spending a few days in Hamilton's
lodge, now occupied by Sargent. the
dead New Workers. quasi partner. He
is OF the opinion that Hamilton's deaf b
was due to foul play and not to acct
dent. When the body was exbumed
water grass was found entaneled in the
spurs.
Mr.. Worthington says that the ford in
Snake river, where the accident is said
to have occurred, is paved with white
boulders and that there is no sign of
water grass in the river for some dis
tance from it. The depth of water in
the ford Is only fifteen inches on an av-
erage and horse can easily wade on
either side fifty feet away. The guides
and hunters there told Mr.. Worthlngton
that it would be folly to try to ride from
the ford to Hamilton's lodge after night
fall, and that Hamilton we'll knew the
danger and was Injured to camping in
the open air. The members of the
Mormon colony of Rexburg, near Jack
sons lake, told Mr.. Worthington that
they had good reason to believe that
Hamilton met with foul play

Mining Congress.


The dedication of the Colorado Min
ing Stock Exchange building and the
opening of the first national mining con-
gress were celebrated at Denver Wednes
day. In the morning there was street
parade, in which miners and all inter.
ested in mining took part. There were
also floats bearing mining machinery
in motion and a great many tableaux
indicative of important features of min.
ing. At the dedication speeches were
made by President Taylor of the Mining
Exchange, Mayor Rogers of Denver
and Others. All the speakers advocated
the free and unlimited coinage of silver
In the afternoon the mining congress
opened at the Peoples theater with ex-
Governor Tabor in the chair. Dele
gates from thirty three states and terri
tories reported and it is understood that
Hon. Miles Searles, formely chief
justice of California, would be elected
permanent chairman.
The greater part of the session was oc-
cupied by Senator Stewart OF Nevada,
who delivered long address upon the
silver question. Among other things he
urged the congress to pass resolutions
that would compel the national house OF
representatives to pass laws restoring
silver to parity with gold: Resolutions
favoring the coinage of the American
product only, the senator said, would
obtain twenty votes in the assembly.

TOriSinp in China

The London Chronicles correspondent
at Shanghai says: Captain Tehwei
near Foo Choo on Tuesday, was attacked
by 49, GO rebels. 1t was a we'll organ
lied uprising. The rebels were arme(
with repeaters and led by capable men
The outbreak was directed mainly against
the authorities, though anti-foreign
cries were heard. The officials were
powerless. The European residents are
apprehensive of a spread of the revolt.
The British consul here, in an interview,
said he believed the recent quietude
only temporary, spring and summer
being the favorable period for outrages
in China. Light draft gunboats are an
absolute necessity to protect Euorepeans
in the interior and at the river ports,
where massacres will inevitably follow
and foreign demonstrations, unless
special preventive measures shall be
adopted. In spite of the semi-official
statement that two of the Ching rioters
have been beheaded and others bastina-
doed, it is yet serious fact that the
real culprits are still free, being protected
against arrest by exalted officials. The
agents of the Pekin treasury have paid
the indemnities agreed upon, $4,000, to
sufferers at Wuhsich, and "a coo to the
families of Europeans killed at Wusseh.
The American missionary, Dart, ex-
presses the opinion that trouble will be
renewed next spring.

A dispatch from Pierre S. D., says:
The remnant of Big Foot's band of In
dians, numbering some sixty families,
are in open revolt against the authority
of the agent at the Cheyenne agency.
This band Of Indians have been living
on ceded lands and no Indian can live
of the reservation without taking UP
land in severalty and declaring his in
tention Of becoming citizen. Mexican
went up to allot these Indians land.
When he got there he found that they
had few days before sold off all their
stock, packed up and left camp. He
notified the agent, who dispatched half
= dozen Indian police to bring them
back to the reservation. They overlook
the band near the edge o;
Pine Ridge agency and endeavored to
persuade them to return, but all but one
Indian refused. They stated they were
going to the Pine Ridge agency and were
going to reside there in the future.
The Indian police returned to the agent
and when Mexican left he had dis
patched large force Of Indian police to
bring them back without fail.
