Special Dispatch to the standard.
MIssoULA, Sept. 30.-Secretary Poynton.
OF Central Miners union of the Coeur
d'Alenes, is in the city ton ight from Wal
lace. From him IL was learned that the
Bunker Hill and Sullivan, the Poormln
and the Tiger ara tho only mines working
under the $3.50 and 500 scale Of wages.
These mines arc at Wartiner, where there
is no Miners union, but a knights OF
Labor assembly. which Is the only branch
Of organized labor IN that camp. The
Bunker Hill and Sullivan people made
important concessions to the knights oil
Labor and the latter decided to resume
work ut the proposed wages. But Mt Gem.
Burke and Mullan, where the Miners
union has Jurisdiction, there 10 division
of opinion among the miners as TO the ad-
visibility of accepting this offer.
The mines at Burke employ but n few
shovclcrs and the men there are consc'
quen,iy opposed TO this proposed scale
but In the wardncr mines tho ,iom oi
shovelors Is important and makes q ea'
difference, as there are many more shosi
elers employed i'm proportion to miners.
Some of the members of the union are in
favor of accepting the wages adopted at
Wartlncr. while Others are not.
President Gilligan and Secretary Weeks
of the Federated unions will go 10 Occur
d'Alene on Monday TO investigate the mat.
ter and see II plan can't be devised by
which the union miners may resume work.
Mr.. Weeks is in town tonight.

Postofiics Business Failing or.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3o.-Marshal Cush.
ing's newsp aper the Capitol has this: An
annual increase of from to 10 per cent.
in the gross receipts Of the postofiice de-
partment is usually counted upon. In the
month Of June the department showed an
increase Of gross receipts of little more
than eight per cent; in July tho increase
was only little more than three Der
cent; in August there was an actual fall
ing oil of four per cent. as compared with
the receipts OF August q year ago. This
means simply that the general business OF
the country has fallen of as indicated by
these figures and the deficit in the postal
revenues Is likely to be, not four or Ave
millions for this year. as was expected,
but rather eight or ten millions.

Lst-Up In the BombArdment Of Rio
The Arxsntine Situation.
LONDON, Sept. 3o.--A dispatch from
Rio says the intervention of foreign min
listers and war vessels in tho harbor pre-
vented n further attack on the forts to-
day. II In believed that q favorable modi-
fication Of the situat ton has taken place.
The same dispatches declare the Argen-
tine situation grows worse hourly. Wires
are cut in every direction and the only
news from government sources 10 not
much believed.
WASHINGTON, Sept. D.-Secretary Her
bert said to-day there were no new facts to
make public in the case of the American n
Boynton who was arrested ut Rio. The
officials are inclined to treat the matter
as of slight Importance aud say II has no
international feature whatever.
BuENos AYREs. Sept. 30.-The ironclad
Independent captured the rebel warship
Andes, which was seized at Buenos Ayres
few days ago by the rebels. Tho rebel
officers managed to escape, but the Grew
was captured.
The latest news received here from Ro-
sario is to effect that there has been con-
tinuous fighting through the day. Tho
rebels claim to have the advantage, and
on the other side the government forces
claim to have triumphed. The only fact
certain Is that there has been severe fght-
ing between the rebels and government
troops.
The latest report from Rio Janeiro is to
the effect that the rebel war vessels all
opened fire on the city and much damage
to property resulted.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 3o.-The depart.
ment of state tonight received n cable
gram from Fishback, secretary Of the leea'
tion ut Buenos Ayres, stating that several
unimportant outbreaks had occurred there
but the government has the situa tion well
In hand and no serious results ore antici-

that would allow the natives to see how

one that furnished no ground for an esti-

WASHINGTON, Sept. S0.-Lsadine demo.
cratic senators who havc been trying for
tho last &s hours to arrange terms of all
ncccp.abbe compromise on the silver ques.
ton, encountered very determined OBJ
stacse to-day when they approached the
trpubiican anfi-silver men. who thus far
have been acting with the democratic re.
peal forces. Tho republicans simply de.
clare that there Is no common ground upon
which they could act with the democrats
longer IL unconditional repeal is TO be
abandoned. When II camo to negotiating n
Tor terms with silver they announced
their intention of fockins by themselves,
ana declared that they were ready TO fight
the compromise to finish.
This bcllicose attitude of the repub-
licans disheartened the democratic repeal.
ers and compelled the compromisers to
halt. temporarily Mt least. Senator vuor.
hccs Is In no way connected with the COM
promise movement. He said to-day that
he had no reason to despair of the passage
of the repeal bill in its original form, and
lie thought 1t quite ridiculous 10 conclude
that in body of IS men majority 55 could
not secure vote upon any given PROPOSE
tion. He said he felt convinced tho ma
jority could hold out as long as the minor.
iy,
"If," said he, two cannot pass the bill
this fall, We can continue the effort during
the winter, and IL We do not conclude the
work in the fall, winter and spring, We
can, like Grant, Fight IL out on that line
II II takes all summer If could force q
vote l should, OF course, do SO, but there
Ia no such rule whereby can do that. l
am satisfied. however, il we hold on with
sufficient persistence We will get it in
time."
Many OF the silver men are not favor
ably impressed with the proposition OF
the enemies OF silver for a compromise.
They especially object to the proposal to
issue 2O0.OO0,000 in bonds to build up q
gold reserve, and this probably will have
TO be modified. Many also think the
proposition 10 purchase s2,00O,0OO per
month silver 10 too small and are inclined
TO take the chances of defeating repeal
rather than submit to il. It is understood
that further efforts will be made to roach
comprosnise and many senators speak
hopefully OF reaching o settlement on
some basis.

to Marry at the Point Of
the Pistol.

LOUISVILLE, KY.-A special from Nor,
garfield, KY, says: There is very
sensational affair in this county. Miss
Abbic Oliver, of Sturgis, Union county,
beautiful young daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Taylor Oliver, was ruined about
eight months ago.
Hcnly Delaney, young drug clerk OF

downfall. He denied it aud both parties
sought legal advice but no proceedings
were held iu court.
Tuesday evening about 0 o'clock, the
mother OF the girl entered Delaney's
place Of business in Sturgis, and ct the
point of the pistol forced him to accom-.
piny her to a clrrags outside, in which
her husband and daughter were seated.
The four drove to Morgaufield, q distance
of 10 miles, and at o'clock a license
was secured and the couple were married.
The party started home, but when
about three miles from Morganfield four
armed men on horseback surrounded the
carriage and began shooting. After the
first shot Delant y jumped out of the We
hiclc aud ran to the attacking party, who
were supposed to be his friends, and the
firing continued. Miss Oliver was shot
through the head and her father in the
face aud right arm. Mis-. Oliver escaped
without a wound.
She ran the team at full speed for .
mile down the road and turned in at a
farm hou:c. The attacking party follow
ed, shooting at every jump.
The girl, who would have given birth
to child soon, was fatally wounded
and died at S o'clock Wednesday morn
ing. Mr.. Oliver is fatally wounded.
Mrs. Oliver recognized the party and
warrants of arrest for four prominent
young men are being issued.~
The families are Of high standing, and
sympathy is with the divers. Mobbing
is feared and the whole country is viii
with excitement.
