ST. LOUIS, Jan. 2.-Advices from the In
dian Territory say that though the efforts,
of the United States commission which
visited the Kickapoos to negotiate the Fox
tribe for the purchase of their lands were
not successful, they were not entirely bar
rem of good results Yesterday the chief
OF the tribe, Chighon Ko Oh Ko gave the
attitude of the tribe on the allotment ques-
ton. Recently an offer of a little money
and more panic has turned the tide in
favor of the allotment which would place
themaon equal terms with the Sacs. The
Fox proposition is that each head of fam
lily gets 100 acres of land the wife eighty
and the minor children forty, the residue
land to be sold for 81 25 per acre and the
proceeds placed to their credit, with which
they desire to build school houses land
stock their farms. The chief is in hopes
that negotiations be closed On that basis
and that congress will ratify the agreement.

Stir Among the Butchers.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Jan. 2.-Quite stir has
been created among the large butchers OF
this city by the recent publication of the
purpose of Messrs. Armour, Swift and Nor
ris OF Chicago and Hammond of Baltimore
to acquire control of the National and
Union stock yards of East St. Louis and
st. Louis respectively.
Mr. Max Courtney of this city, one of the
largest butchers, admits that the local
butchers are going to give the big packers
the cold shoulder. "It is fact" said he,
"that we have decided to build an abattoir
where we can handle Texas cattle as cheap
ly and advantageously as the largest con-
Germs in the land. Our plan will cos
about 81 ,0OO, 900, and will have capacity OF
200 beeves and as many hogs per day. No
matter what the Big Four say or do, our
scheme of building the abattoir will be car
ried out.

not more than twelve feet square, were

bodies of eight men who had been lying for
ten months sixty feet under the ground.
By noon the remains of The last OF those
eight victims of the disaster of March ~,
last, had been recovered and brought to the
surface.
When it is remembered that these bodies
had first been partially consumed BY fire,
then crushed under tons of coal, then for
four months covered with water 1t is posi-
BILE to imagine the condition in which they
were, Of flesh there was little and in sew
eral cases the bones too were partially dis
iptegrated and torn apart. while only few
fragments of the victims clothing re-
mained. 1t was by this clothing, however,
that after the remains had been cleaned
and put together as well as possible seven
of the bodies were identified.

be kept 10 and it was thought this morning
