Bold Strategem.

BROWNSVILLE, Ten, December 25.-
It's reported that Cara has made
bold attempt to capture Fort Ringgold.
The report says that one Of his
band was pursued by Mexican troops
near Camargo. The bandit, giving
spurs to his horse, swan to this side,
the Mexican troop went after him.
The fugitive ran into Fort Ringgold
while the United States soldiers were at
dinner and reported that Cara was be-
hind him.
Boots and saddles was sounded. The
men went out TO meet Cara, bat soon
discovered that the troops were Mexl-
can regulars. They rushed back to
Fort Ringgod and found that the fugi-
tive had tricked them and that Cara
was coming in at the other end to take
Fort Ringgold. The soldiers got back
in time to save the Fort from being
sacked.
The whole garrison is now under
arms. The United States telegraph
operator has pistols on his operating
table for emergencies.
The report has reached here that
Mexican army officers are joining
Garza's band, and that company Of
Mexican regulators had revolted and
killed their Captain, after having had a
fight among themselves.

How the Windy City People Celebrate
Christmas Day.
THEY HAVE STREET HORSE RACES
And Fights in Saloons, and When the Officers Al
tempt to Enforce Order, The Crowd MobS
Them and General Melee Ensues-
4 Downright Lively Cele-
bratiOn, Anyway.

CHICAGO, December 25.-A riot,
which at one time threatened to be
most bloody, took place this afternoon
as the outcome of horse race on one OF
the streets OF this city. A crowd Of
several hundred males and females,
white and black, assembled on Custom
House Place to celebrate.
The street was turned into race
course, a shot from revolver being the
starters signals. Two races in quick
succession had been run, and third
was being started when a squad OF po-
licemen arrived. At the same time, q
general fight was commenced in a
neighboring saloon, and bullets came
crashing through the windows.
Two officers in citizens clothes gained
entrance to the saloon, and being rec
ognlzed, the cry went up, "lock the
doors and shoot the officers" and at the
same time the key was turned in the
lock. Backing into corner, the OFF,
GERS drew their revolverS, faced the
ugly crowd and threatened TO shoot the
first man who moved.
Their nerve paralyzed the crowd for a
moment, and by that time other officers
burst open the saloon door and rescued
their comrades. The crowd was deter
mined not TO leave the saloon, but after
a desperate struggle, the officers
emerged from the place, each with a
fighting. struggling, desperate prisoner.
A patrol wagon was waiting nearby,
and against the desperate efforts OF the
crowd in the street whose sympathies
were with the prisoners, the officers
succeeded in landing their prisoners in
the wagon. While not shot was fired
by the officers, they were forced to keep
up running fight while in the neigh
borhood, using their revolvers as billies.
AS the wagon was moving away q
burly negro named Robert johnson
ssrang forward and shouted TO the
crowd: Come On, let's take them away
and kill the id coppers." He was
knocked down by blow from a revolv-
er and unceremoniously thrown into the
wagon. With drawn revolvers the way
was cleared for the wagon to pass
through the crowd, the prisoners con-
stantiy struggling for freedom.
The whole crowd followed the wagon
to the Harrison street station, but de-
spite last desperate struggle, the wa
gon load of prisoners were safely placed
behind the bars. Other officers arriy-
ing, the crowd dispersed.

INDIANA MINERS.
There May he Some Delay About Their
Gettinng Back to Work

GettiDnS BACK TO WOIh
TERRE HAUTE, IND, December %
1t is not a settled fact that the Indiana
miners, though the strike has been de-
clared off, will be able to get regular
work, but the probabilities seem that
they will.
Some delay may be occasi0ned on ac-
count of the operators having TO work
their way back into the market, but 1t is
believed that the majority OF the con-
tracts have been held by the mine own
ers, and therefore the immediate de-
mand will be large enough to give the
men pretty steady employment.
What are the chances for the In
diana operators being able to furnish
their men regular work?" was asked
Mr.. ]. Smith Talley yesterday.
That question:" he replied, "cannot
be answered just now. We do not
know and have no way OF finding out
sooner than perhaps within the next
eight or ten days"
State President Cummesky was seen
at his home and requested to give his
opinion on the outlook. He
had been slightly under the
weather and had not felt
like considering the question carefully
he said, but from appearances, he was
inclined to Judge that the men would
be able to get work, that matters would
settle down and that all would be run
ming smoothly within short time.
Conservative estimates place the loss
resulting from the strike at a million
and three-quarters of dollars.

wanted the settlement all on his side.
But she has refused to accept other

Upon removing the clothing from the

The Coroner this morning TOOK pos

The scenes about the waiting rooms
at Dobb's Ferry were pathetic. Little

His arms were bruised, but the chlld

was. He did not know that she had
been instantly killed. The child had
been s.ceping in the same berth with
his mother. Tive young girls were
among the injured.
Among the passengers in the Gio-

a moment there was absolute silence

groans were heard from the passengers
OF the car. Mr.. Gould does not know
how he got out of the car.
The unknown man, who is supposed
to be either Lawyer Johnes or Lawyer
Wilcox, wore a gold watch numbered
1866. There was also found in his

New York to Dunkirk, eight business
cards of the firm Of JOhnes d wilcox,

A stranger entered his residence this
afternoon, and, upon being asked the
nature of his business, stated that he
was hunting house Of entertainment.
He was informed that be was at the
wrong house, but the stranger said he
had come to take the place.
The stranger proceeded TO make him
self at home and inquired for the wo-
man of the place, whereupon the rev.
erend gentlemen ordered him out OF the
house, but he tarried. Then the
preacher closed the door and proceeded
to administer to him such punishment
as a ruffian deserves. After giving the
intruder a good drubbiug he kicked him
out of the house and out Of the yard
and across the street. The fellow found
that the preacher was too much for him
and said: Partner, il you will not say
anything about this will not"
Having been annoyed before, and no
particular effort being made by the mu-

LONDON. December 25.-The dis
graced Mrs. Captain Osborne, VINO
stole and sold the jewels OF Mrs. Har-
greayes, is now somewhere In the
South of France. But for her being
Sir Henry James god-daughter she
would now have been lying in prison
awaiting trial for perjury and theft.
Relatives Of the woman are arranging
a settlement Of the jewels, and Spinks'
claim for the $3.50 he paid for the stolen
pearls. These have been restored TO
Major and Mrs. Hargreayes, who have
now returned to Torquay TO quietly
lionize In society.
Englehart's position toward Mrs. Har.
greaves is explained as that OF an old
friend OF the family. The stories OF
his impecuniosity are denied. The
stables over which he lived
indicated wealth instead OF
poverty. They are model buildings.
fitted up with every luxury OF 4 man
devoted TO horses. The quarters OF tho
grooms are ideal bachelor chambers.
He owns both hunters and trotters.
The next society scandal will be Lord
DeWalden's petition for a divorce from
his wife. The case, however. will be-
divested Of much OF the public interest
which would otherwise have attended
IL, by the withdrawal Of certain shock
ing charges which the wife desired 10
plead as the grounds for separation
from her husband.
The Earl Russell case operates TO re-
strain the counsel from permitting the
scandalous allegations to be made In
open court supported by sufficient
proof. Efforts 20 have the case
heard In secret have been de-
feated and the public will now be treat
ed to revelation OF the domestic life
OF aristocrats, In which drunken assaults
and indecencies unworthy the lowest
rowdy, figure largely.
Earl Russell has appeared in new
role. He now reads the lessons in the
family church at Wimbledon on Sun
DAYS. Forsaking agnosticism, OF which
both his father and mother were
avowed advocates, he has become a
broad churchman and an earnest evan
gelist.
The whole OF the Prince Of Wales

New YORK, December 25.-The grip
is marching triumphantly onward, fol-
lowed by the familiar sound, "Atchoo!
atchoom which is the cry OF her nu-
merous victims. This wall is heard In
the Fifth Avenue Hotel as well as In the
ten-cent lodging house: among the
Four Hundred as shrilly and as lacking
in culture as it is along the East River
front, for, TO give the grip her due, she
is no respecter OF persons. She nings
her pestiferous microbes around lnuis-
criminately. The hospitals are ming
up fast, and unless a change In the
weather takes place soon the doctors
will be driven to despair.
Since Monday more than one hum
dred and fifty applicants for admission
TO Bellevue Hospital have been filled
out, and even now the hands OF the at
tending physicians are just as full as
they can hold. The majority OF the
cases are under the head OF pulmonary
complaints such as pneumonia, oron.
chitis. influenza and colds-but most OF
them spring from the prevailing disease,
the grip. DR.. Pulley, who was on
duty last night, said:
"Unless there be change OF weath-
er, affairs will soon look rather ugly.
Not that there is anything particular
virulent in the disease as 1t manifests
itself now, indeed 1t seems To be timld
type, but we have not room in the hos
pital."
Pretty much the same was said in the
New York hospital in Fifteenth street,
in the Presbyterian hospital, and also
in ST. Vincent's. Seven deaths, due dl-
rectly or indirectly TO grip, were re-
ported for the twenty-fOur hours end
ing at noon yesterday, and l4O from all
causes, as against 127 for the day pre-
