The great New York circus and McMa-
hons trained elephant shows, which ex-
hibited in the public square this afternoon
was one Of the finest ring performances
ever before the public III this city. The ell
ephants are one of the greatest features Of
the show, owing to their great tricks which
are pleasing and amusing, and worth the
price of admission alone. The show is one
Of the Oldest Of its kind now on the road,
and has the reputation Of owning the finest
railroad cars, the finest ring horses and the

THE TROUBLE IN WYOMING.
Calling ON she Governor Relative TO
EEfs Recent CmtELe Proclamation.

HAS Recent GMIEIe PFOCEA Nh HIE0ms
CHEYENNE, May IA noted aggregation
of railroad men are in town today. At
their head is General Manager Dickinson
aanked by w. A. Duel, general superin-
tendent Gulf division, general superin ten
dent Nebraska division. Among others
General Freight Agent Munroe Assistant
General Freight Agent Wild, Superinten-
dent Teuhey, of Denver, and assistant SUI
perintendent of North Platte. The first
party visited the imprisoned stockmen at
Fort Russell, and later call was made on
Governor Barber in relation to his procla-
nation prohibiting southern cattle from
being driven across the state to adjoining
states. This has been very sore point.
Last year cattle were consigned to Grin
Junction on the Union Pacific, then trans
ferred by the Northwestern to the Black
Hills. AS a consequence they unloaded
on the ranges several big outfits who
threatened to withdraw business from the
Northwestern road in the event this is
continued during the present season.
This will probably explain Why the North
western declined to make any through
rates. Local rates are demanded from
Orin Junction to the place Of destination,
as cattle consigned to Montana could not
under the proclamation be unloaded for
trailing at Grin. Business has been prac-
tically at standstil. Strong talk was
made to the governor, who announced he
would give his decision some time today,

A Transaction of 2S Years Ago Sus-
tatmed by the Supreme Court.
WASHINGTON, d. o., May 9.-In. 1856 H
L. Opie sold for SAL 900 large tract of farm
land in. Jefferson county, then Virginia,
and now West Virginia, TO Henry W. Cas-
tleman, part Of the payment being in cash
and the rest in interest-bearing notes.
Those payments which fell due between
1861 and 1864, Castleman paid in Confeder-
ate money and Virginia bank notes, both
of which were deprecated currency, going
for the purpose Of payment from the Unit
ed States military lines in West Virginia
into the Confederate lines in Virginia and
making the payments to Mrs. Opie. The
sons of Mrs. Opie were in the Confederate
army, and she accepted the money, which
was divided between the members of the
family, and in 1866, at her request the
trustees executed deed of release About
fifteen years afterward suit was brought
against Castleman and the point made
that the payments in Confederate money
did not constitute a payment in lawful
money, as required by the terms of sale
The United States district court of West
Virginia gave judgmentagainst Castleman
but the United States supreme court yes
terday, in an opinion by Justice Harlan
reversed that Judgment, holding that the
action on the part Of the Opies came too

Majority of the Southern states
Delegations INSTRUCTED for gHar-
risOn---What Action Has Been
Taken by the Northern states.
CHICAGO, May 8.-The most significant
thing in connection with the coming CON
vention at Minneapolis is the great num-
Der of uninstructed delegates In this
respect the convention will take precedence
Of any republican national convention yet
held. The Southern States have instructed
nearly all their representatives so far ap-
pointed to vote and work for Mr.. Harri-
SOM denomination. But in the Northern
States, the delegates from which claim it
as their right to make the nomination, as
it must be their task to elect the candidate,
instructions are in the main absent.
Every republican state convention in the
north, with the exception of Colorado, has
spoken warmly in favor of President Har-
rison's administration, but Indiana alone
has given its delegates binding instructions
to vote for his denomination.
The situation is likely to make the Min
neapolis convention unique, not only iii
the republican party, but in American
4 political history. 1t will contain larger
number of men than have ever met in such
an assembly who will be free to follow the
dictates Of their own calm Judgment. This
will make the convention pre-em1nently a
a deliberative body. 1t will be hampered
in its action by no cast iron instructions
but will be free to do what it believes is
best both for the country and the party.
4 This is situation. 1t shows that the
party has outgrown bossism. 1t shows
also the overwhelming majority of the
worth and intelligence of the country il
the republican party and that it has as
serted itself in the control Of the organiza-
ton. It means that the people have taken
the management of political affairs into
their own hands, and propose to control
the party's nomination and policy. 1t is
i honorable to the President. 1t proves
that he has used none of the vast power
that rests in his hands to secure a renewed
hold upon the Office, but has left the party
4 free to express its convictions at caucases,
i primaries and state conventions. No man
can say that Benjamin Harrison has lifted
finger to bring about his own renomina.
ton, or to hamper the action of the re
4 publican party in any way.

Hon. Daniel f. Beatty, the great organ
and piano manufacturer, is building and
shipping more organs and pianos than

niless pillow boy, and by his indomitable
will he has worked his way up so as to sell
so far, nearly 100000 of Beatty's organs
and pianos since 1870 Nothing seems to
dishearten him; obstacles in his way that
would have wrecked any ordinary man for
comes out of brighter than ever. His in
struments, as is well known, are very pop
ular and are to be found in all parts Of the
world. We are informed that during the
next ten years he intends to sell 600

of 500 000, 900 if we average them at $10C

Gut of the City.

Gut of the city.
WAUKEsHA, Wis, May o. Waukesha is
patrolled BY armed men, and every loyal
citizen is sleeping with weapon within
reah, prepared to sally forth at moments
notice in defense Of the city. The prepar-
ations are all due to an attempt made last
night to lay a pipe line from Hygeia
springs to the city limits to connect with
the pipe line to Chicago. At midnight
Chicago MilNaEket G ST. Paul train
brought 800 1aborerss and a quantity Of
pipe into the town. The piping of the
water from Hygeia springs was forbidden
by the city some time age, but the pro
moters thought the work could be done be-
fore the courts could interfere. Citizens
had received intimation of the proposed
invasion by telegraph from Chicago, and
when the train pulled into the station a
crowd of 1000 armed men was prepared
to receive the invaders. AS the workmen,
led by J, r. McElroys a Chicago real estate
man, stepped from the cars the noise of a
hundred shots rang out on the air, and the
4 terrified invaders beat hasty retreat to
the train Meantime the fire bells had
been rung and few citizens who
had retired joined the crowd at the depot
Action was served on NeElroy and he re-
paired to the hotel to confer with his
attorney. The workmen had by this time
regained their composure, and again
emerged from the cars. Some of them had
4 been drinking and iii short time half
dozen fights with citizens were started
Five of the aliens were arrested and hustled
off to jail and two Of them are still in GUS
tody. McElroy finally marched his fol
lowers off to a deserted mill where they
were all day. Long Jones, Of Chicago, ex-
chairman of the Illinois republican CEN
tral committee, is in charge Of the defend
ing forces, and has no doubt Of his ability
to defeat the schemes of the pipe line com
pany. A mass meeting Of citizens will be
held and a course Of action decided upon.
