Milwaukee, Oct. 9.-Judge Johnson.
this morning, decided that the state Of
Wisconsin, the city of Milwaukee and
the city of Columbus We're preferred
creditors i'll the Wisconsin Marine and
Fire Insurance company bank. and
that the county Of Milwaukee, was IL
preferred creditor in the Commercial
bank
Judge Johnson said nothing about
the matter of appointing Il co-receiver
for the Mitchell bank 1t is presumed
that he withheld his decision in that
matter until be could learn wether re-
sumption was 4 possibility.
He will more than likely render Il
decision in this matter when he grants
an ode, for Il dividend to preferred
creditors. Ii resumption takes place
no co-receiver is needed. of course
1t is understood that there is now
about 81 100000 in cash in the Mitchell
bank. This would not be enough to
pay all the preferred creditors in full
and pro rata payment would be
made. This would give the city about
SSOO,0Oo. IL is likely the county would
get at least $200,0O0 in the first pay
ment from the Commercial bank.

THE GREAT ORGANISE.

Concerning the playing Of Alexandra
Guilmant, it is said by the American
Art Journal that one of it's character
istics is that he makes his favorite in
strument to sound like an organ, mot
like an orchestra, or a brass band, or
a spasm Purely orchestral colors he
seldom employs, and then only in such
subscriptions as the Pilgrims Chorus
from Wagner, which by the way, was
one Of the least interesting numbers
ON his program. Many years ago l
heard George w. Morgan play the
overture to William Tell so exactly
according to Rossini's orchestration
that when I closed my eyes the vacant
stage in Steinway hall became at once
peopled with rows of violinists, cell
lists and performers on all sorts of blow
instruments. Even the drums were
initiated. At the time considered this
a most remarkable accomplishment,
and even now I believe that thorough
knowledge Of Instrumentation would
be of great benefit to young organists.
But Guilmant has sailed far beyond
such material atmosphere. Never be-
fore heard I such organ music! Never
before heard I such fugue playing,
where every theme and response SEEM
ed to have been uttered by living
voice. And all this was accomplished
with the utmost grace and repose OF
manner"

WITH EIGHTEEN BARRELS.

An Old-faShiOned English Revolver
Owned in San Francisco.
That was quite an historic pistol of
which you have an account in the Call
the other morning." was what William
Edward Fowler of 2O6 Pacific street
said after introducing himself in San
Francisco office
Yes, it is interesting on account Of
its associations and from the fact that
it was used in a duel at one time
"One duel?' said Mr.. Fowler, sneer-
ingly; that's nothing. I've got one
that's been used in four or five duels,
and it's good yet"
POSSIBLY there are number of pis-
tolls that have been used in more than
two OF three duels-"
That's right" added Mr.. Fowler, in
terrupting, but it isn't every day that
you can See such pistol as this" and
pocket Of his coat the weapon, remark
ing. There it is. I've had it for
thirty-four years and don't know how
long my father had it before me, and
he got it from my grandfather, who
received it as present from his
father
And such 4 weapon. 1t measures
from the edge of the muzzles, for there
are eighteen of them. to the extreme
Of the grip nine and half inches,
while the cylinder, made UP of eighteen
barrels which revolve on a central rod
connected with the grip, is six inches
in circumference. The barrels have a
bore that will admit an ordinary sized
lead pencil. The trigger, unprotected
by a guard, is OF the ring pattern. The
weapon is a self-cocker and was built
before the days of modern cartridges,
for each barrel has attached to it a
nipple for the old style percussion caps.
When the trigger is pulled it rises the
hammer half an inch wide and when it
comes down it strikes two caps, caus-
ing the discharge of two barrels at one
time.
The weight of this most extraordi-
nary weapon Of ancient times, which
looks like pocket edition Of a modern
mitralleuse Or Hotchkiss gun, is two
pounds. On the grip can be seen the
word London, but the makers name is
obliterated by rust.
Mr.. Fowler said that he was unable
to give a history of the weapon, except
to say that his great grandfather,
William Edward Fowler of London,
had used it, in a duel or two, and that
since it had been used in two or three

A RIVER OF MANY NAMES.

Away out among the rolling noun
tains of the Northwest, is a river, a
dancing, ripping, musical stream of
most varied nomenclature. Its head
waters are among the silver laden
mountains around Butte, Montana, the
great mining city, where it is known
as the Silver Bow River. Soon how
ever it becomes the Deer Lodge, flow
ing through a beautiful valley of the
same name. 1t then takes the euphon-
ious name Of the Hellgate and after a
few miles changes again to the Mis-
soula River. Cutting through another
mountain range it becomes Clark s
Fork of the Columbia, and as such
flows into one Of the most beautiful,
sensuous lakes in the United States,
Lake Pend d. Oreille. The Lake is a
gem, with islands, guarded by trusty
mountains.
Leaving the lake the river flows
north, northwest and joins the greater
Columbia. Between the lake and the
Columbia it is still called by some the
Gark's Fork, by others, the Pend d.
Oreille River.

Washington, Oct. ga foretaste of
the exciting times which may be ex-
pected in the senate after Wednesday
when the friends Of repeal will at
tempt by continuous session to force
4 vote from the minority, was given
this morning
1t was a good example of the intense
bitterness which exists between the
two factions and which at times does
not hesitate to descend to acrimonious
personalities
Wolcott, of Colorado, arose during
the morning hour to take Senator
voorhees, to task for what he termed
his inconsistency and enmity to sill
ver." His speech was an impassioned
one and very personal in its nature.
His tauntS called Mr. Voorhees, to his
feet. That the Indiana man was very
much wrought up could be seen by his
nervous manner and the occasional
tremble of his voice.
He began with a violent arraignment
of the silver senators as unpatriotic
and as being the true enemies of sill
yer. He had voted against the bill
because he had realized what its effects
would be and ne was ready to go be-
fore the people of Colorado Oh his ac-
tons.
The president, he said, had been at
tackled by the senator from Colorado
but the president needed less defense
than any man he knew. A mighty bull
wark had been erected around him by
the voters last year. He trusted the
president and so did the people He
would carry out their wishes.
Mr.. Morgan attempted to interrupt
Mr.. Voorhees,, but he declined to yield
the floor, which resulted in warm
passage at arms between the two.
Almost every senator was in his seat
and the galleries Were crowded 1t
was altogether the most exciting scene
so far of the silver debate. 'It was the
meanest debate / have ever seen in
that body" said an old newspaper
man.
Mr.. Teller followed Mr.. Voorhees,,
and defended the silver senator's
course The senate is getting mad and
some fun may be expected.
At TIE opening of the session this
morning the resolution recently adopt
cd at Il joint meeting of the Memphis
Cotton and Merchants exchanges, con-
demning the two Tennessee senators
fer their course in antagoniZimg the
silver purchase repeal, were presented
by Mr. Harris, democrat, of Tennessee,
Wko denied that he had been guilty
Of any discourtesy toward those eX-
changes and intimated that the dis
courtesy l.aG been on their side to
himself and his colleague.
The resolution offered by Mr.. VOL
colt republican, of Colorado, last Sat
urday, to carry into actual legislation
the declaratory section of the Voorhees,
substitute lin favor of bimetallism)
was taken W. and Mr.. WOlcOtt spoke.
The debate was continued through
the day with evidences of i'll feeling.

of Mill Work Caused by
the Miners Strike

London, Oct. 9.-One of the largest
paper mills in the kingdom has closed
its doors owing to a lack Of coal, and
many other mus are upon the point of
similar action. This would lead to a
paper famine in the newspaper world,
where the stocks of paper are being
quickly exhausted.
There was rioting yesterday at the
Burton-on-Trent collieries Some strik-
ing miners attempted to prevent the
dispatch of several loads of coal dust
to the pumping station. They over
powered the police and military and
upset the wagons. The rioters We're

SEVEN THOUSAND OUT
Big Strike of all Wooden Mill Opera.
tives at Oyneyville, r. I.

Providence, r. I. Oct. "a big strike
in the wooden mills at Olneyville, a
suburb of this city, was inaugurated
tsi morning. Probably 1000 people
are out Of work and the strike is grow
ing rapidly.
Before it stops, unless all signs fail,
every wooden manufacturing establish
ment in this state will close it's doors,
and there is talk of cotton workers
joining in the strike. The trouble is
over cut in wages.
The weavers in the Taft and Weed
ing mills held a convention in the
work loom which resulted in their
leaving their looms and coming out
on Il strike. AS soon as they went
out a cry was raised:
Let us go to F1etcher's mills, and
the crowd marched down to the Ma
tional worsted mills. Here they sta
toned themselves in front of the mills
shouting, Come out" and the weavers
promptly left their looms. The strikers
then proceeded to the other mills bring
ing out all the men.

HOUSE.

Almost Immediately after the read
ing Of thr journal the considerat ton Of
the federal election bill was resumed in
the house. and Mr.. Aldrich, republican,
of Illinois, opposed it. He did not
know how the federal election law full
filled the hopes of their friends in the
south, but ii had been a success in the
great cities, and for this reason he
thought that congress should be JUST
fled in leaving it upon the statute
books.
Mr.. Deliver, republican, Of Iowa re-
garded the present attack on the cleo
ton laws as vastly important to the
People Of the United States. They had
had tic endorsement of the leading
men of ali political parties and their
repeal ROW would take away the last
evidence Of rational concern in Mt
tional elections.
Mr.. Coombs, democrat, of New York,
said that he always had been on record
in support of the purity of the ballot.
lie was not going to prove recreant
to his record. But his firm conviction
was that the federal election laws ought
to be repealed because they were start
Mg the country in the wrong direction
and the end could only be anarchy and
the destruction Of the republic.
x Mr. Boutelle, of Maine, in opposing
the bill, said that the issue joined was
not as to the methods of conducting
elections-the real issue was the fun
damental question as to the existance
of the government Of the United States.
He expressed his Amusement at the
freedom with which democrats had
risen here and asserted the dogmas Of
state rights.
The talk on the election bill continued
until adjournment, at 4:4O p. N.

WILD SHEEP IN GEORGIA.
Neglected FlOcks Which Have Roamed
the Woods for Hundreds of Years.

New York Evening Post: In the great
plney woods of the South Atlantic
states Il peculiar race of sheep roam at
large, almost as wild and uncared for
rs the famous southern "razor-back"
hog. For centuries these sheep have
existed in parts of Georgia and the
Gulf states, and, by adapting them
selves to the climate, poor food and
Indictment weather, they have succeed
ed i'll surviving all the vicissitudes of
a wild and precarious life.
They are commonly called in tho
south 1.-The sheep of the pin,y woods"
they have no recorded pedigree nor
even q breed name. 1t is supposed,
however, that they were originally
brought to Florida by the Spanish adj
Venturers when they first settled upon
the present site. They possess even
yet, in some respects, the characteris
tics Of the merino sheep. They have
the same general form, though less uni
form, and wool that is nearly as fina
as the pure-bred merino.
In the historical accounts of the early
Spanish visitors to Florida there are
records of their bringing sheep and
other domestic animals with them, and
after that time no subsequent large
importation of finetwOOled sheen TO
this region was ever heard of. Wild
sheep were known to exist in the south
in the days Of Washington and Jeffer-
son, who endeavored to improve their
condition by introducing fine breeds
from abroad.
