THE MESSIAH CRAZE

Again Breaks out Among tho Cheyenna
and Arapahoo Indians-The Excitement
Spreading.
FoRT RENO, l. r., Dec. 31--The Mes
siah craze has broken out afresh among
the Cheyennes and Arapahoes, and not
a little anxiety is felt While il is
quiet enough near the reservation build
ings, dancing has been going on among
the hills for several days, and the craze
is apparently spreading. The leaders
are Whirlwind and Old Grow, of the
Cheyennes, and Left Hand, the head
chief of the Arapahoes At first the
gatherings was small but Indians have
been streaming into the camp, until
now there are from ten to twelve hum
dred present
They declare that the Messiah, who
is to expel the whites, bring back the
buffalo and restore their hunting
grounds to the Indians is soon coming,
and that the ghost dance" will be
kept up day and night until he arrives.
Runners nave come in from Walkers
Lake in Nevada, melting the Indians
to activity, and predicting the early ap-
pearance of the Messiah. The ghost
dance goes on day and night, the In
dians being divided into relays one
party relieving another as the fatigue
overcomes them. AL. are provided
with ghost shirts, and seem terribly in
earnest Scouts report that wild
whoops and yells can be heard at all
hours of the day and night from tho
hills where the tribes have gathered.
As yet the excitement has not reached
the Comanches, but it is feared that
they, too, may become involved. This
| is regarded as serious danger, as the
Comanches have an ample supply of
ponies, in which the Cheyennes and
| Arapahoes are deficient All are well
armed with Winceesters and revolvers.
| The officers of most experience in
Indian warfare are not inclined to be-
lieve that any serious outbreak will
occur at present, as the Indians have q
horror of winter campaigns, but the
excitement may cause them to depart
from their usual practice of making
war only when there is plenty of grass
for their ponies.

AN AWFUL DEN.
Another Scandal Distracts the
People of London.
rbe Den Ia Unique of It's Kind-Noth-
ing So Poverty stricken and Com
Quoted on SO Largo Scale
Known to the Authorities.

LONDON, Dec. 80.-A horrible den OF
lnfamy, whose existence is unprece-
Rented in the annals of the metro
politan police, was raided Monday
night. 1t is in the neighborhood OF
Euston square and consists of an
abandoned shop and adjoining dwell
ing, which had beeu furnished in tho
cheapest possible way, the shop being
nsed as a brothel, and bed rooms in
the house being let out for the same
purpose. The latter were provided
with old egg-chests and packing cases
that had been converted into rude bed
steads covered with chintz and fur
1ished with straw mattresses. On tho
washstand was broken crockery and
the chairs were without backs. The
place, which was kept by the wife of n
cabman named Jumper Flowers, WAS
the nightly resort of crowds of ragged,
dtterly depraved young girls who line
the streets throughout that quarter OF
town. The den is unique Of its kind,
nothing so poverty stricken and con-
Quoted on so large a scale being known
to the police. When the constablcs
surrounded the place n scene very like
pandemonium ensued, both the shops

GARCIA KILLED.
The Mexican General Murdered
By His Troops.
Mexican soldiers Nearly All Convlots, who,
Instead of Being Given n Term In Pris-
on, are Sentenced to Serve
with the Military.

MONTEREY, Mex, Jan. 2.-The news
was received here that Gen. Lorenzo
Garcia, in command of the troops in the
field in the northern part of Mexico
with headquarters at Meier, had been
murdered by his command, and that
the entire force. numbering several
hundred men under his immediate
command had gone over to the side OF
the revolutionists, crossing over into
Texas in body at point between
Roma and Carrizo The private soldiers
in the Mexican army are nearly all
convicted criminals, who, instead OF be-
ing given a term in prison are sem
fenced to serve with the military.
They are desperate characters, and are
nearly all secret sympathisers of the
revolutionary movement Gen. Garcia
was one of the most prominent and
efficient officers in the Mexican army,
and his death at the present time is a
serious blow to the government Gov.
Refs has been in constant telegrnphic
communication with President Diaz all
the day, but the nature of the dis
patches is not known.
Gov. Refs, of the state Of Nuevo
Leon, and the military authorities
here are much disturbed over the
situation on the frontier. The move
ment of the troops through here from
the lower part of the republic during
the past five days has been very great
and the transportation facilities of the
Mexican national road have been in
sufficient to accommodate the heavy de.
mand made upon it by the government
The garrison here has rushed all of the
available troops to Nuevo Laredo, from
which place they are distributed along
the right bank of the Rio Grande.
CITY OF MEXICO. Dec. 31.-At the
war department it is ascertained that
the Mexican government Is moving
troops from interior garrisOns TO
strengthen the army operating against
Cara 1t is now estimated that there
are fully 3 600 soldiers guarding tho
long frontier from Laredo to Mata-
moras. The extra troops are being
sent to further protect it from Cara.

denee at Hawarden, in spite of the fact
that it was known that they would not
be forwarded to Biarritz where Mr..
and Mrs Gladstone and a party Of
friends are still stopping.
[England's grand old man remains
the idol of the people, as he has been
for more than quarter Of century.
His body is remarkably strong and Wig
orous, his mind clear and energetic, and
his heart young, though the loss Of a
favorite son few months ago has sad
dened him. All classes respect and
honor him for his unselfish patriotism
and his championing of the cause of the
oppressed. His present great vigor
gives promises of another decade OF
usefulness, though touch of the grip
alarmed his friends a few weeks ago. |

He Is Herr Gutsehnidt, The German
Minister to Chill.
Tho Probabilities of Arrangement Botweon
tween the United states and Chill
Increasing-A Yorktown Or
derly Strangely Missing.

New YORK, Jan. f. The Herald has
the following cable from Santiago:
Some reluctance was felt by some
members of the cabinet to taking office
because the exact situation of affairs
between the United States and Chilli
was not known. There seems to be a
disposition to come to terms with the
United States provided an amicable ar
rangement can be made which will not
humiliate Chill.
/ am informed that there is a likeli-
hood that the note of the late minister
of foreign affairs, Senor Malta, which
caused,such offense to the government
ut Washington, may be withdrawn. At
all events it is probable that such ac-
tion may engage the attention of the
new cabinet at an early date.
1t is stated at the Moneda that Presi-
dent Montt has been advised to with
draw the Malta note, and n member of
the new cabinet said the cabinet would
take up the question ns soon as the re-
port of the court on the Baltimore af-
fair is made. No apprehension of a
rupture is felt, he said, despite the state
of public feeling on the subject. Acting
presumable under instructions from
his government, Mr.. Kennedy, the
British minister, has been advising
President Months government to make
reasonable terms with the United
States
Herr Gutschnidt the German min
lister, has offered the services of the
government as arbitrator between the
two countries, but in view of the con-
tinued insults to our legation, both
covert and openly displayed, it is hard
ly thought possible that the PROPOSE
ton to submit the troubles to arbitra-
tion would be entertained.
Minister Egan Saturday received a
polite communication from the new
minister of foreign affairs informing
him of the desire of the new govern
ment to maintain friendly relations
with him both personal and official,
and also to preserve and maintain the
friendship existing between the coun-
tries

Yorktown came ashore on December 20

TIE GREAT M1ANroNoMAH
Most Terrible Of All the wav vessela "f the
United States, to Begin Her Crulso.


United States, to Begin Her Crulso.
NEW YORK, Dee. 81.-The repairs and
alterations on the handsome harbor de-
fense vessel, the Miantonomah, have at
last been brought to an end, and on
New Years day the ship starts out on
a brief cruise In the direction of Gard
ner's island, for the purpose of testing
her newly-mounted guns.
Everything ON the queer-shnped, low
lying craft was moving at hot haste
this morning, in anticipation of her
coming departure. The test of the new
boilers and engines began at o'clock
Wednesday night, and will be contin-
ued, probably, for forty-eight hours.
All this while full steam is kept on, and
the entire machinery of the vessel is
worked to its utmost capacity. The
ship, however, does not leave the dock.
The test has been perfectly satisiaeto-
ry so far. There are 1wo things left to
be done on board the Miantonomah--
coaling and provisioning-and these
were begun at noon Wednesday. They
will be pushed forward and completed
by night-fall Thursday.
Inc anticipated test OF the gnns OF
modern type. with which the Miantono-
nah has lately heep provided, is Viewed
with the liveliest interest by naval ex-
perts and scientific men. Besides four
ten-inch brecch-loading rifles two
three-poHnder Hotchkiss rapid firing
guns and two thirty seven millimetic
Hotchkiss revolving cannon.
The Miantonomah has the very new
est thing in ordnance in the shape of
two six-poun6er D-iggs-Schroeder rap
id-fring cannon These guns have
never been tried on board U. S. cruisers
before; they throw a six.pound highly
explosive shell every fifteen or twenty
seconds, from distance of $500 yards,
and that with the greatest accuracy.
They can be used 1000 or 5000 yards
away.

They Respect our Navy.

LONDON, Jan. 4-The St James Ga
zette, referring to the improvements
recently made in the United States
navy, says: In spite of occasional mis-
takes, the Americans are making steady
and surprising progress toward becOm-
ing great naval power. There is not
the smallest doubt of their ability to do
So" There is no doubt that the new
United States navy is attracting much
earnest attention in Europe, and the re-
suit of the gun trials of the double-tur-
reted monitor Miantonomah are being
closely watched here.

nah were busy Tuesday filling the
bunkers with coal preparatory to the
test of the ten-inch guns and the hy-
draulic machinery of the turrets at
Gardner's bay this week. Carpenters
were also at work fittirg wooden case
ments around the base of the turrets
to shed off the seas that may break over
the decks. The ammunition for the
big guns was put in the magazines
Tuesday. 1t consisted of fifty charges
of powder and fifty rounds of shells
The reduced charges which will be
used consist Of $50 pounds of prismatic
powder each, while the full charge is
240 pounds; the shells weigh 4SO
pounds. The guns weigh 2715 tons
each, are 81 feet in length and have a
capacity for piercing 90 II inches OF
steel at the muzzle.

Two Railroads Held Accountable For q
Deadly Wreck.
TOLEDO, O., Jan. 4.-Coroner Roulet,
Saturday, made public his verdict on
the wreck which occurred in the Lake
Shore yards this city, November 2s, by
which eleven lives were sacrificed. He
places the blame on both the Flint and
Pere Marquette and the Lake Shore
roads-on the former for the engineers
having run his train too fast, but places
the burden OF the blame on the Lake
Shore for faulty management Of their
yards for running trains too close to-
gether, and for not displaying signals
at the tunnel, and because the rear
brakeman on the Lake Shore train did
not take proper precautions to protect
his train when it stopped.

War "A Little.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-Gen. Horace
Porter, who is in Washington as guest
at the Sherman Thorndyke marriage,
Wednesday, in talk about the Chilian
affair, said: II scarcely look for a
war with Chilli, though think little
brush with an outsider would be a
good thing for the United States.
Patriotism becomes stagnant by too
long epoch of peace. It's getting about
time to open the temple of Janus
and let slip the dogs of war.

minister thrashing to Italy.
True, she could have turned loose her
monster men-of-war on our unprotected
coasts, but we would soon have sent
them to the bottom with torpedoes

the grandest lot OF iron-clads in the
world l tell you l admire the policy
of old England, which protects the
property and person of Il single citizen,

mountains of Persia or the plains OF

Decrease during the month. ......S
A French View.

PARIS, Jan 4.-Le Soci, commenting
on the dispute between Chill and the
United States, says: "Jingoism is not
an exclusively French sentiment Mr.
Blaine did not wish to run counter to
the high strung patriotism aroused by
the Baltimore incident, especially as
the election for president approaches
and he does not intend to let his politi-
cal enemies make capital ont of
his course of action. This explains the
tergiversation and incohereucy of the
Washington government in dealing
with the Chilians who need not see any
thing more serious than this in the
sulkiness and bluster of Mr. Egan.

New YORK, Dec. 3l.-The representa-

of Slavin and Sullivan met at the Her

between the two men. Bots sides were
willing to put up their money but
they could not agree. Sullivan
has declared emphatically that he will
not fight Slavin in the event of the
iatter's losing his fight with Peter
Jackson next May. The Siavin con-
tingent wanted TO make the match
whether their man won or lost with
Jackson, but the Sullivan men would
not agree to that proposition.
