WASHINGTON, Oct. II. - Brig-Gen.
John K. Brooke, commanding the de-
partment OF the Platte. in his annual
report to the war department, says: A
troop of cavalry has been enlisted from
Brule Sioux at Rosebud agency and a
company of infantry from the Sho-
shones and Arapahoes from Fort
washal1. An effort TO enlist COM
pany at the Pine Ridge agency was
not successful. but five Indians
have been enlisted. The princi-
pal objection TO the enlistment
of Indians at this point came
from the chiefs and the fact
that they are satisfied with their
present condition and also object TO
serving as foot soldiers. An effort to
recruit a company from the Uncom-
pahgre and Uintah Utes also failed,
and the effort to recruit Indians on the
Fort Hall and Lemhi reservations, it Is
thought. will also fall.

To Issue $2, 800 900 in New stock.

New YORK, Fel. 1y.-lnformation was
received by the Evening Post yesterday
that at a meeting of the dire ctors of the
Louisville, New Albany u Chicago Rail
road company, held at the c%ompany's Of
flee in this city, an additional issue OF
$2,500,O00 of the com pany's stock was
authorized, the president of the company,
VIM. L. BreyfOgle, stating to the direct
ors that he had arranged with some one
to loan the company money on them. The
Evening Posts informant said the issue
of this stock was part of an attempt to
defraud the company out of just so much
money. President BreyfOgle denies any
such Issue of stock as stated, and
declares the company in good shape.
About the time BreyfOgle was talking to
a reporter for the Evening Post yester-
day W. S. Alley, a stakeholder in the com
pany, was applying in Chicago to Judge
Tuley in the circuit court for a receiver
for the company. In his affidavits Alley
alleges that a conspiracy exists between
Breyfogle and Henry S. Ives of Gin
c%innati, Hamilton u Dayton fame to
wreck the company; that they are schem-
ing to increase the capital stock from
$5,0OO,O 600 to $7,500,O00, and that Brey-
fogle wants to receive this increase. Brey-
fogle says the charges are fictitious and
sensational. Ives had nothing to say
about the story.

NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-Less than two
months ago warning base ball factions
were shaking hands " a settlement of
their difficulties. The National league
has conquered the Players league, A. G..
Spalding and A. w. Thurman toasting to
the health of President Prince Of the de-
funct Players league, ami ali joined In a
love feast owe the regenerated American
association and the signing of "a
new national agreement which was
heralded as a salvation of the game. Allen
w. Thurman was designed as the Ameri-
can association representative, and it was
thought he would guard the associations
interests carefully, but his recent action
in voting to give Stovey, Dierbauer, and
Mack to the National league has in
censed the association to "a point where
it has renounced the National agreement,
denounced Thurman rs II tool of Spald-
ing, and it was today engaged at the st.
james hotel in this city in recognizing
entirely. One of the first acts
of association at its meeting today was
authorization of notice to Secretary
Young of national board of unanimous
adoption of following resolutions:
Resolved, That American association
withdraw from national agreement to
take effect this date.
Louis Kramer, lawyer of Cincinnati,
well versed in base ball matters,
was elected president, secretary and
treasurer, and accepted. One move taken
10y the association was the adoption of
guarantee fund. 1t will most effectually
balk all efforts of the league to injure the
association by reducing the chances OF
withdrawal of the association club. Fifty
five per cent. of the capital stock of each
club will be deposited with the president
to prevent any jumping from the field,
Bonds will be given in lieu of stock and
conditions of the fund are such that il
will find clubs for nine years.

FROZ
A Young Man on Deep Creek Freezes His
Feet While Hunting Wolves.

There is a young man at the Minnesota
house laid up with his feet badly frozen.
His name is Louis Vette, and he lives in a
cabin on Deep creek, about 40 miles from
Great Falls. The particulars of tins cas-
uality us near as can be learned from
the unfortunate man are as follows: Ac-
companled by Ed kube, who stops at his
(Nette's) cabin, he started out on the first
of this month 10 kill some large grey
wolves which have become very numer-
Gus in that vicinity, and trailed them
about four miles from his cabin without
getting "a shot at them. As it was getting
rather late IN the day he concluded to re
turn home, and in crossing Deep creek
broke through the ice, thoroughly wetting
both feet. He walked back to lis cabin
with both boots full of water, the weather,
mean time, having turned biting cold,
and as Il consequence, found the water in
his boots frozen, and it was with great
difficulty he removed them. He thought
his feet were not frozen badly, therefore
delayed seeking medical aid Immediately.
AL Henry, "A neighbor, at last prevailed
upon HIM to undertake the journey here,
and they arrived Tuesday afternoon. IL
required three days to make the trip.
DIR. Gordon is attending to the case, brt
at this stage it is rather difficult TO tell
whittier the patient will recover the use
of both limbs or not.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Feb. 1S.-At 1 o'clock
this afternoon a flying current in the Al
leghany river cached 81 feet II inches,
and began to slowly recede. AS even the

25 feet, the great damage inflicted in this
city Is due more to carelessness in remov-
ing goods than to very high water. Near
ly every iron mill is flooded and closed

squares upon squares of streets flooded

direct loss by the flood cannut fall short
of $1,000 900.
The poor living along the river have

have been issued by the mayor of Allie
ghany. The greatest losses of course fell
