Ny mother died in giving me birth.
My father was very rich man, rail-

Aunt Agnes was prim, but cultivated.
She wrote for reviews and wore eye

On the other hand, Aunt Helen was a
neat, dapper little woman, who lived in

spinsters. Each of them passed one even

my fathers library. Then my aunts for

They told my father that the next three
years were the most important in my
life, and that the best way to foster my
health was to find some judicious person
to be my companion.
Aunt Helen was in favor of one who
had youth and good spirits, but Aunt
Agnes thought it important that gov
erness should inspire respect. was not
consulted, and my father declined to
arbitrate between them. In the end,
the favorite of Aunt Agnes was installed,
through the chance discovery that the

the stage.

GEN. NILES SNUBBED.
Was the Abolition of the De-

HIS STAFF OFFICERS SAY so.
Exposure OF Indian Agency Manage
for Him-schofield In Tacoma.

CHICAGO, July 11.-rSpecial. THE "cen-
tralizing order" of the war department
abolishing the three great military divi-
sions which have existed since the war, and
compelling department commanders to
make their reports direct to Washington
City, leaves General Miles without any
active duties. This is what Captain Mans,
one of the generals aids, said today:
General Miles himself has thought best not to
say anything on the subject Under circum-
stances such a. now exist ! would prefer
not to discuss the affair
One of the officers on the generals staff said
the effect of the recent order will undoubtedly
be to debar General Miles from exercising any
authority in the lately disturbed Indian terri
tory. Indeed, it is the general impression
in military circles that the order
from Washington City is aimed di-
rectly at General Miles. 1t goes
without saying that General Miles has been
doomed man at Washington City since he let
in the hight on the Pine Ridge difficulty. He
did not hesitate to point out that q system of
robbery and cruelty had been carried on against
the Indians, and he has never been forgiven
since he advocated transfer of the management
OF Indian affairs to the war department Every
body knows that the general has now absolutely
nothing to do. He takes it all like Philosopher
He doubtless reflects that the last has not been
heard of the Indian troubles, and that the time
may not be distant when those who now snub
him may be found crying for his assistance.
Captain Higgins started today on a
mission to the Indian agencies on the
upper Missouri General Miles said, in
reference to the trip, that there was little
significance to be attached to it. Asked as
to whether it was he who sent Captain
Higgins he replied: "Orders came from
Washington City. Now, you know"

Jay Gould and the Alton.

CHICAGO, July 1.-THE meeting of the
general managers of lines in the Western
Passenger Association today was produc-
tive of no result in the Finley-Alton con-
troversy. 1t was demonstrated at the
morning session that majority of the
roads maintained their opposition to the
Atoms policy and were disposed to sus-
tain Finley at all hazards. As con.e-
quence, General Manager Chappell did not
attend the afternoon session, and the other
managers, after half hours informal dis
cussion, adjourned. Thus the movement
to restore harmony fell fiat. The Rock
Island and Chicago, st. Paul & Kansa,
City strongly defended the Alton. The
Northwestern favored a compromise, and
all the Others declared in favor of Finley.
The Gould lines seemed to lead the oppo-
sition to the Alton, and there were those
who thought they saw in this a scheme on
the part of Gould himself to force the
Alton into position from which it could
only escape by joining the Western Traffic
Association

GIGANTIC MINING OCTOPUS.
Eastern Syndicate Purchases Mineral.
Producing Properties of Utah.

CHICAGO, July 1.-THE final steps were
taken today in the formation of a mining
and smelling trust, in which foreign capt.
talists and members of the Standard Oil
and lead trusts are said to be interested.
For several days Manager Franklin, of
the Niagara Mining and Smelling Com
pany, of Utah, has been here in Geographic
communication with the promoters of the
project, which is union of all lead, silver
and gold-producing mines in the Utah
belt. Among the hackers are said to be
companies in London and Brussels, the
manager of the Standard Oil Company,
several members of the lead trust and G..
Palen, brother-in-law of Jay Gould. A
number of properties held out until today.
These it is said, are the Utah, Live Pine,
Indiana, Miller, Climax and Spanish
groups. 1t is asserted that the combine
will control the largest lead producing
mines in the world. The company will at
once increase its capital stock from S2,00O,-
600 to 100000. The claim is made that
the successful contamination of the deal
will make the Salt Lake valley the smelt-
ing center of the United States.

given his patient no medicine since he was
called in. He thinks Blaine will be as tit

THE PHILADELPHIA BooDLERs.



PHILADELPHIA, July lin the COM
mon pleas court this afternoon an attach
ment was issued for the arrest of I'll. FL.
Yard for failure to appear before the
Bardsley investigating committee yester-
day, as ordered by the court.
The judge of the common pleas court
today refused to grant the writ of seques-
tration asked by the city against John
BardsIey. The mayor asked that a writ
be granted with clause of attachment
against g number of individuals and cor
porations, founded upon the statement
that an examination of the accounts of
Bardsley shows that he is defaulter to an
amount not less than $445, 900.
Lawyer Alexander. counsel for John
Bardsley, has notified President Bell, Of
the Farmers and Mechanics bank. not to
honor any checks drawn by City Treasurer
Wright and State Treasurer Boyer on the
account standing to the credit of John
Bardsley in that institution. If the bank
officials act in accordance with the notice
given by Alexander it will nullify the de-
cision reached at the con ference ofstate and
city officials at Treasurer Wright's Office
on Thursday. 1t was then determined
that inasmuch as the city and state each
had an interest in the money which Bards-
ley had in the various banks, all checks
upon these accounts could be jointly signed
by the state treasurer and city treasurer.
1t was thought that in this way the money
could be drawn from the bank and both
the city and state get its share of the
funds.
The Times says, editorially, that Nc.
Clure will be glad to have an early oppor-
tunity to appear as witness and testify
under oath that he never in his life con-
versed or directly or indirectly communi-
bated with Bardsley or any other person

ports received here late tonight state that
heavy showers have checked to great
extent the forest fires which have been
raging the past few days in this section.
ST. IGNAcE, Mich, July 11.-One of the
most destructive forest fires which has
ever swept the northern peninsula is rag
ing between Marquette and this city along
the line of the Duluth, South Shore & At
lantic railroad. For 100 miles nothing can
be seen but mass of flames and dense
smoke. Large crowds of men stationed
along the railway track have been fighting
the fire, but the flames are gaining
Roadway. It is feared the tracks
will be destroyed. Between Newberry
and Seny the bridges across the
small creeks are now burning. At several
bridges today trains were compelled to
stop and extinguish the flames. The tele-
graph poles are burned and the wires
rendered useless. Some small villages
along the railroad are in danger of being
wiped out. The inhabitants have been
fighting fire for the past few days, and are
now almost exhausted, and have applied
to the railroad officials for aid.
1t is feared that seven loggers along the
banks of the Tahquamanon and Fox rivers
lost their lives.
