THE ALLIANCE STRENGTH.

They Claim Fifty-five Votes in the Next
House and Four in the Senate.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1S.-At the Farm
ers' Alliance headquarters in this city it
is stated that the Alliance will have
ffty-five men in the next house who will
vote with it on all measures that it may
see fit to bring forward. In the senate
the party claims four senators, PETER,
Kyle, Irby and Vance. At the next ses-
sion the sub-treasury bill as it was in
troduced in the last congress will not
make its appearance. That measure
has been %repudiated by both houses of
congress, and will for that reason not be
resurrected. A bill constructed, how
ever, upon lines similar to it, and en-
bodying the same principle, will be in
troduced into both houses and pushed to
a vote. The Stanford land loan bill will
not be touched by the Alliance, but a
bill bearing on the same subject will be
introduced. Another measure which
the Alliance will demand is a free COIN
age bill. These three measures are the
mes in which the party take the most
interest, but other measures will be in
troduced and efforts to pass them will
be made.

sary to their traffic; demands free and
unlimited silver coinage; equal taxation;
agraduated incometa government con-
troll and if necessary ownership of rail-
roads and a direct vote Of the people for

States senators. 1t also recommends
that the government loan money at 2
per cent on real estat- and non-perish-
able products. The platform was adopt
ed and it was decided to organize a state
committee and issue an address. An at
tempt was made to capture the conven-
ton for Tilden, Democratic nominee for
state treasurer, but it fell through. No
ticket Was nominated and the convention
adjourned.

Cowboys VS.. Negroes.

GUTHRIE, o. T., Sept. ia deputy
sheriff has just arrived from the line of
the eastern Indian lands, bringing news
Of a race wal now in progress there, just
N the line of the Iowa reservation. The
town of Langston was founded several
months ago, and is inhabited solely by

contemplate settling in a body in the
Cimmaron valley as soon as the lands
are opened. A gang Of cowboys from

eyes on the locality and say
that any negro who attempts to settle
there will he killed. The cowb"ys Wis

II LOTTERY LAW.
Attorney Genera Miller Says It Is Con-
stitutional.

Attorney General Miller Says It Is Con-
stitutional.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1S.-The case of
the United States against JohnL L. Rapier
and the two cases Of the United States
VS.. George s. Dupre will come up for
argument at the October term of the
United States supreme court. Each of
these cases is an application for the dis
charge by writ of habeas corpus from
arrest for an alleged violation Of the
an%ti-lottery legislation of the United
States. The charge against Rapier
and against Dupre in one
indictment was the mailing
of a newspaper containg an advertise
ment of the Louisiana lottery, and the
other indictment was for the mailing Of
a letter concerning the lottery. The
judgment of the lower courts was
against the defendants, and the cases
were appealed to the supreme court.
Attorney General Miller has prepared
the brief which he will submit in be-
half of the government when the cases
are heard, in which he cites supreme
court decisions showing that the anti
lottery law is constitutional, and that
discrimination against lottery advertise
ments does not abridge the freedom of
the press.

tween 10000 and 800, 900. .#
KINGSTON, N. Y, Sept. 19.-The city
was thrown into a flutter of excitement
upon the announcement being made
that James E. Ostrander, one of the
best known bank officers here and treas
urer of the Ulster County Savings insti-
tuition, was a defaulter. Amount mis-
appropriated is estimated at between
$4,000 and 100000. The populations
extend over a period of many years,
small sums being taken at a time. Os-
trander's downfall is the result of ex-
travagant living. He has an exceed
ingly expensive family which is fond of
every luxury. Mr.. Ostrander's houses
are luxuriantly furnished and he has a
large retinue of servants. The bank has
deposits of $3.50, 900 with a surplus Of
nearly $500, 900 and will tide wei the
difficulty without embarrassment. Not
withstanding this, there was a slight
run on the bank and about $75, 900 of
deposits were withdrawn. Several large
deposits were also made. Ostrander
was arrested on a charge of grand lar
ceny in the first degree and arraigned
before the recorder. He waived exam
nation and will be taken before a Judge
and give bail. He has been a member of
the board Of education, the common
council and has held many other places
of trust. q

DENIED BY CLOUGH.

No Such Combination as Reported Has
Been Made or Contemplated.
Vice-President Clough, of the Great
Northern, when asked regarding the
rumored combination of the Great North
I'm, Canadian Pacific and 500, said that
it was without any foundation in fact.
He said there was no combination among
the lines named and none was contem-
plated, and the story to that effect was,
in its details, utterly at variance with
facts as known to railroad men and not
feasible.
Mr.. Lowry denied that any combina-
ton of the character outlined was prob.
able. He looked upon the COMPROMISING
of President Hill and Lord Mount st.
Stephen as simply a social QUE. Certain
ly the 800" was not in such a deal, and
there his interest ended.

THE OHIO DEMOCRATS.
Governor Campbell Opens the Campaign
at Sidney.

Governor Campbell Opens the Campaign
at Sidney.
COLUMBUS, o., Sept. Ex-Governor
Campbell opened the Democratic cam
paign at Sidney, o, to a fair sized as
semblage. He said that one of the most
encouraging features Of the campaign
was the apprehension exhibited by Re-
publicans in regard to the tariff. The
Republicans, by the nomination of Nc
Kinley, had made the tariff the issue
and now they were lodging it. Refer
ring to Senator Sherman's prediction Of
the result of free coinage, the governor
said that he was a false prophet and
cited instances in which what the sena-
tor had predicted had not come about.
The truth was, he said, that both parties
are divided on the tariff. The Demo-
Gratis of Ohio do not agree upon free
coinage, but thea do agree that nothing
could be quite as absurd and unnatural
a the circulation of warehouse receipts,
or pawn tickets based upon uncoined
metal. The Democratic platform de-
nounces the demonstration of silver.
Who defends the characterization of sill
yer? Every man connected with it, ex-
cept Senator Sherman, denies having
knowledge of it at that time.

bill; d]enounces the Mckinley bill; con-
dennis reciprocity a. one-sided and the
granting of subsidies. Free coinage was
favored as a full and legal tender for all
debts. The supreme court was given a
little roast for ousting Governor Boyd,
and the Republican state board of trans.
portation denounced for not giving the
people relief from %exorbitant freight
rates.

DEATH IN THE FLAMES.
Five People Lose Their Lives In a Chicago
Tenement,

Five People Lose Their Lives in a Chicago
Tenement.
CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-One of the most
disastrous fires that has visited the city
for some time occurred about 1870 this
morning in a four story tenement house
at $40 and 551 Sedwick street. Al
though the blaze lasted but fifty min
utes the loss Of life only made the trifing
damage to property stand out more sig
.nifcantly. Five people are dead and
another will undoubtedly die. In the
upper stories of the building were five
families, and the scenes of confusion
that followed were terrible. It was on
the second floor that the fire did it's
worst work. When Officer O'Neill
broke into the rooms occupied by
the Schalk family in company
with the firemen a horrible sight
met them. The rooms were filled with
smoke and water stood on the floor to a
depth of eighteen inches. The officer
heard a weak voice crying for help and
as he pushed into the main room he
found the body of Cythia Schalk, aged
II, who was just alive. In the next
room in n heap were found Mrs.
John Schalk, his wife, two sons and n
daughter. All were dead. From APP
pearances they had clustered together
and resolved to make their escape to-
gether. Whether they were sufocated
or drowned is a mystery. Two or three
other people were slightly injured.

PORTLAND, Or, Sept. 17.-President
Jim Hill, of the Great Northern rail-

Tacoma on his way East. He said;
Our road is built from New Westmin-
ster to Seattle but is not yet open for

Seattle over the Union Pacific as soon
as that road is built, which will be as
o as it's debt is Strengthened out by
Mr.. Gould. That road has been man
aged very poorly, and when the fnan-
cial crash came in November last, it,
among many others, suffered consider
ably. Gould is a great manager. He
stopped work on the line between Port
land and Seattle to cut down expenses.

McAllister, a veteran Of this city, who
was in" Salisbury prison, North Caro-.
lima, when Polk was governor, holds a

d1er general commanding the post and
gives the Alliance leader the blacklist
reputation for his conduct to lUnion

got together and perfected plans for ap-
plying tar and feathers to Polk before
he should leave town, but somehow
news of the intention leaked out and the
police took steps to prevent the projected
assault.

bodies of the drowned are being gath.

them to carr their bread has vanished

The 500 Considers 1t,

CHICAGO, Sept. 17.-The establishment
of a new lake and rail line is indicated
by kilograms to Chicago vessel owners
The 500 is said to be back of the
project. which contemplates putting
into service IA line of steamers between
Gladstone and Buffalo, for grain and
-four. Inquiries are made for steamers
to run charter for the rest of the season.
The 500 line, it is thought, found itself
handicapped by the Great Northern line
Of steamers. Gladstone is an arm Of
Green bay, where the 500 has built up
quite a town. It may be difficult at this
part Of the season to secure the steamers
for the new line.
