The Chicago Opera House manage
ment presented the second edition Of ''Sin-
bad to a house crowded with its patrons
on Thursday night. Edwin Foy s.aRpear-
ance in the cast was signal for an ova-
ton from his admirers Herbert Gresham
who had been out of the piece fer week,
resumed his old part Of the Count, and
was also greeted with applause on his
entrance, as Were, in fact, all of the favor
ties The piece has been considerably
altered since its first presentation. and the
changes made are all for the better.
Edwin Foy now plays the part Of Frescc
and the Cannibal King, combined AT
thur Dunn still appears as the Old Man
of the Sea. The New song :" He Never
Came Back and the parody on John
and Mary" introduced by Mr.. Foy
proved hits. The introduction Of Mr.
Foy in the cast has infused the comedy
element which was heretofore lacking
and the piece is now full of humor as wei
as unsteady bright and scenically splen
did.

large. It argues well for the general
trade of the country that, in spite Of the
decrease in last years wheat and corn
crops, the earnings should show any in
crease whatever on those of 1890 1t seems
therefore to be reasonable assumption
that the current business of the roads
would warrant about an average range of
prices for railroad securities: and yet their
present value falls very much below the
average.
''In view Of the factors above reviewed
there appears to be solid basis for an ap
probation In the value of securities from
this time forward; and the probabilities Of
the situation favor steady buying move
ment extending up to the fall months:
especially should the crop prospects con-
tinue to develop as satisfactorily as hith-
erto.
THE exports of gold still continue. I'm
til the end of the week, the shipments
were OF special nature; but on Friday the
rates OF exchange advanced fully up to
the specie-shipping point, in consequence
Of sales OF securities for London account.
The total amount Of gold shipped and en-
gagged for shipment during the week has
been close upon A,000,000. The banks
gained about 81, 900, 900 currency on their
exchanges with the sub-treasury and lost

Tile CEOHTAWC

PARIS, Tex, April 13-Among the bills
passed by the Choctaw legislature shortly
before adjournment was one providing for
taking an accurate census of the Choctaw
citizens by blood, the rolls, when COM
pleted, to be filed with a board composed
of the governor, auditor, secretary and
treasurer. They also appropriated 81, ,657,
69l out of the leased district proceeds to be
distributed equally per capita among
blood citizens. Enrolled citizens by adop-
tion and negroes are excluded from any
share in the money Twenty-Five thousand
dollars were appropriated to defray the
expenses of the sale and distribution. The
disbursement is to be made by the national
treasurer and auditor, who shall visit each
county and make the payments to the res
idents therein. Choctaw blood citizens
residing III the Chickasaw nation are
included. The gross sum due
on this per capita allowance to
the orphans supported in the orphanages
OF Wheelock and Armstrong will be de-
posted in the national treasury. and upon
any orphan becoming of age, this share
with per cent interest, will be paid over
to him without further appropriation A
correct list of the orphans and their pres
ent age is to be filed with the auditor and
payments made by it. The citizens by
adoption will probably contest the provis-
ion excluding them from share in this
fund. The act also fixes that no blood
citizen not a resident of the Choctaw or
ChickaSaw Nation at the date of the act
shall share in the distribution. This pro-
vision excludes those Choctaws who have
remained east of the Mississippi, but who
are now manifesting desire to come over
and take share.

MURDERED BY INDIANS.

BLACKFoOT, Idaho, April 13 Great eX-
element was caused this afternoon by a
discovery that Indians had killed two .un-
known white emigrants who were camped
at water tank one mile below this place.
Nothing could be learned as to the cause
of the tragedy. There were no eye wit
nesses. The bodies of the emigrants were
found dead at the tank, and number OF
Indians were sneaking to the Mills east of
here. An uprising is feared. Agent
Fisher who was at Pocatello, was tele
graphed and came up on a special train.
Deputy Sheriff Rose left Immediately for
the scene, and took charge of the bodies.
leaving an armed posse on guard Busi-
ness is suspended and the citizens are up
in arms. About one hundred armed
mounted men have left the city to demand
the surrender of the guilty parties. Should
the Indians refuse, trouble is sure to fol-
low, as the posse are determined men. Not
an Indian was to be found in the city an
hour after the affair. The governor and
adjutant general have been telegraphed In
regard to the affair.
Tonight the excitement is in a manner
abated. The Indian police are on track of
the supposed murderers. The men killed
are Frank Hill and a nephew of the same
name. They are from Franklin, this
state. The coroner's jury has brought in
a verdict of killed by an unknown Indian.

current for some days on the sugar market,
at the foot of Wall street, that a CONT bina-
tion had been formed between the sugar
trust all the eastern refners and the
wholesale grocers' association, to acquire
complete control of the sugar trade. 1t is
known that negotiations have been pend
ing between the independent refiners, the
sugar trust and the wholesale dealers to
handle all the sugar refined in this coun-
try, and to boycott the refined sugars of
foreign countries. So far the deal has re-
suited only in an association Of refners.
1t is stated today that Claus Spreckels. E.

a CHINESE EPER.

PHILADELPHIA Pa, April 13.-A case OF
leprosy has just been discovered in a
thickly populated section of this city. The
leper is Hung Lee, who keeps a Chinese
laundry on the east side of Ninth street.
above Locust. He has lived there for over
six months, and it was not until few
weeks ago that the disease made itself
evident. At that time Lee fell sick and
although his three assistants would say
nothing about it, it was rumored among
his customers a few days ago that
Hung Lee was sick and that his disease
was leprosy This excited considerable
alarm and Officer Adds. of the Nineteenth
district, the patrolman of that beat, re-
ported the matter on Wednesday at the
station house The board of health was
notified, without the fact being generally
known. Hung Lee was examined, and
the disease was pronounced to be leprosy.
At O'Clock on Friday morning the
ambulance from the Municipal hospital
stopped in front OF the laundry and the
leper was taken to that institution. The
bureau of health has not yet decided what
shall be done with him. Another Chinese
leper, who was sent to the Municipal
hospital over year ago, is near death
now Of the disease.
