PITrsBURG, Jan. S.-First Lieutenant
Rorke of the second cavaly of the United
States army, was a passenger on the day
express east this morning bound for
Washington. He came direct from Pine
Ridge agency where he has been attend
ing to some affairs of the government
and looking over the field. He will now
make his report of the condition of the
Indians at that agency to Secretary
Noble and preparations will be made to
suppress any outbreak. ''Trouble is
brewing among the Indians Of Pine
Ridge agency" said he, land 1t is my
firm belief they will soon start another
crusade against the whites. | have
spent some time among them and
when ! left there a few days
ago they were sullen and at
times very ugly and made open threats
against the palefaces. If it were not for
the fact that they are now largely de-
pending on the government for food,
fuel and clothing for winter they would
rise up in arms at any moment. They
are again talking about the Messiah and
it will not be long until the ghost dance
will again be resumed throughout the
agency. The Pine Ridge Indians are a
very peculiar ace of people and need
watching continually"

New YORK, Jan. 8.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review Of trade says: The
first week Of the new year has been
marked by some striking events. These
changes do not threaten but promise to
help the legitimate business OF the
country which over confident specula-
ton at this time might have embarrassed
The government issued this week its
final statement of the yield Of wheat,
corn and oats. The yield of wheat now
reported 30 far exceeds previous reports
and estimates the price has dropped
sharply 81 cents for the week on sales
Of only 15O,OOO,OOO bushels, oats also
dropped "a cents, but corn rose an
eighth and the large exports actually
exceeding those Of wheat for three days
of the week sustaining the price. Pork
other parts of the country is fair for the
season, the new year being quiet, not
having entirely passed.
Cleveland-Trade is good for the sea
son and rolled iron is in good demand.
At Pittsburg the outlook seems better.
Pig iron is stronger and finished iron in
good demand.
Chicago-Reports of some increase in
receipts Of barley, cured meats, cheese
and cattle. Receipts of oats are nearly
double last years; of flour, corn, rye and
dressed beef fully double, and of wheat
three times that of last year. Dry goods
sales are light, though payments are
better. Sales of clothing and shoes are
larger than a year ago and money is in
fair demand with the supply ample for
legitimate trade. Milwaukee finds good
indications for the spring trade, and the
heavy snow helps the lumber business.
At st. Paul trade is quiet as usual,
with excellent prospects. At Mime
apolis the car famine is over and the
output of flour is $4,000 barrels, against
114,0OO last year. with lumber sales OF
1891 exceeding those of 1890 by67 100000
feet. Collections in the northwest are
fair. The great industries report no i'm
portant change, though in iron a large
business is being done and tin is i'm
proved. Some improvement is seen in
bar and plates and a fair business in
structural iron.
The loan trade is ragged, though the
demand is beyond all precedent. Less
demand is seen for copper, though large
sales have occurred. Tin is weaker and
lead dull. The money market has been
well supplied at this point and other
markets throughout the north are easier.
In brief the business prospects of the
country are remarkably favorable for the
beginning of the new year, excepting at
the south and while the depression in
that section may considerably affect
some trades and branches of manufac-
ture the uplifting influence of large
northern crops and of an unprecedented
foreign demand for northern products
gives substantial ground for the great
confidence which prevails. Business
failures occurring throughout the coun-
try during the eight days since Dec. 81
are 1875 as compared with a total of 800
last week. For the corresponding week
of last year the figures were 403.

Railroads Must Make Rates.

Topeka, Kan, Jan. S.--The state

The Deer Lodge senator Can Sit In the
Chief Executives Chair.

a period of perhaps thirty days, Senator
William M. Thornton of Deer Lodge
county, will be governor Of the state of

state in the meantime, Speaker Of the
House Harry r. Comfy will be governor.

Row Among Mexican Papers.

CITY OF MEXICO, Jan. 8.-A report re
ceived here to the effect that the clerical
party was backing the Graza insurrec-
ton on the frontier caused a big row
among the liberal and clerical journals
Of this city. All liberal papers printed
dispatches and in many cases some very
fyrcible and damaging comments were
made regarding the clericals. The
TEMPO of Tomorrow, a leading journal
representing clerical interests, denies the
news entirely.

Various Opinions as to the Best Methods
to be Applied.

HELENA, Mont, Jan. S.-ISpccial to
the TRIBUNEl-The irrigation congress
resumed it's sitting in committee of the
whole this morning at 10 am, Judge
Chisholm OF Gallatin county in the
chair. II. &. Power made some pointed
remarks that were listened to with great
interest. He is delaying his trip to
Washington during the session of o n
gress to be present at this convention,
which he regards as of great import
ance.
Hon. w. A. Clark then occupied the
attention of the members for an hour
and a half in an able address. He was
Internationally in favor of state owner
ship of the public lands and showed how
such would be to the advantage of the
people of the state. He thought the
state should not not only have control of
the arid lands, but the timber lands as
well. On being asked by Power if he
was in favor OF the state owning the
mineral lands as well he replied in the
affirmative. In his remarks he said the
state, if given the control of the lands,
would be able to organize districts and
issue bonds by which means money
could be raised for constructing reser
voirs, etc.
Mr.. Rolfe of Great Falls believed that
too much time was being consumed in
speech-making and he moved that each
member be restricted to five minutes in

At the afternoon session Mr.. Strevell
of Miles City offered the following reso-
luton:
"Resolred, That in the judgment of
this convention it is the duty of the gen
eral government to aid in the
development by irrigation Of the low
lands in the several states and territories
where such lands exist, and while we do
not deem it desirable that the control
and title to such lands should pass from
the general government to the several
states containing them, we do neverthe-
less urge that at least the proceeds arising
from the sale of such lands shall be APP
piled to the supplying of water for their
development for the purposes of agricul-
ture, and we urge upon our senators and

Eating Manners In 1850.


In description of dinner in 1850
there is no mention of the fork. and it is
not certain that there was a knife for
each person. The guests were placed
in couples as far as possible, on the
ground of their being mutually agree
able. which was the more necessary. as
in certain cases the porringer-a bowl
with ears for the soup-had to serve two
persons.
Il a person preferred not to use his
spoon. or if one had not been supplied
him, he drank his soup from the por-
ringer held by one of the ears. Those
present at the table put their hands into
the common dish to take such pieces of
meat as they preferred, though it was
NOT expected. they would explore the
mass too thoroughly. This will pass for

eaten in an aristocratic family in Europe

This elegance of appointment and
manners was not found lower down in
the social scale. In families of less
wealth hands were not always washed
before eating, napkins were not supplied,
and not only were meats taken with the
fingers from the common dish, but the
soup was placed upon the table in a
large vessel into which every one dipped
his spoon and conveyed the liquid to his
mouth francisco Chronicle.

fight. Upon examining the skin of the
dead rat Immediately afterward he
found two very minute punctures. like

to find outfit the skin was affected, DR.
Buckland scraped away the hair from
it with his finger nail.
Then he threw the rat away and start

sstantiy that he was poisoned, and SO
lost no time in seeking an iapoth ecary
shop. where he was dosed with brandy
and ammonia. He came very near
dying. Undoubtedly small quantity
