Doctors Cannot Name the Dis
ease But Think Ii is
Typhus.
Caught, Without Doubt, in the
Dissecting ROom-HallS
Deserted.

ST. Louis, Mo, Feb. FIRED. II.
White, of San Antonio, a student at
the College of Physicians and Surgeons
here was taken suddenly i'll at a lecture
Thursday and died within 81 hours
The symptoms were so peculiar that
the doctors refused to sign the death
certificate until ordered to do so by the
health department and then gave scar
let fever as the cause.
Friday George Hirdond, of Kentucky,
was seized with similar symptoms to
those of White, and died this morning.
Saturday David Brown was taken i'll
of apparently the same disease and
died this afternoon.
In all three cases the attending ply
sicians were unable to determine the
exact cause Of death and referred tho
matter to the health department. The
doctors report calls attention to the
suspicious nature of the cases and says;
The case toward the termination
manifested symptoms of a character
that caused grave doubt as to the
possibility of the eXistance of cerebral
Eyphus, as different from suspected cele-
bro spinal meningitis"
The doctors insist upon an official in
vestigatlon. Mr. Graves says If Student
Whites case was not malignant scarlet
fever it was typhus.
Among the students the sickness has
caused great Consideration. After
Whites death the college was closed
and the men began leaving for home.
Students express the belief that the
disease, whatever it be, was caught by
the men in the dissecung room.

sNTi-OpTIOS BILL DEAD.

Members of Congress.
WAsHINGrON. Feb The anti
option uiu is ~egarded by the oldest
members of Congress as dead. MIR.
Hatch doesn't agree with that opinion.
But he wouldn't believe himself
whipped if all the other members in
the House told him they would vote
against the bill. The men with
calm judgments however, say that
while Mr.. Hatch may, with his mag
netism, electrify the corpse into life it
will be Tor a moment only, and that it
will then return to the grave in which
it was laid by Speaker Crisp last week.
1t is pretty certain that Mr. Hatch
cannot muster a two-thirds vote for
suspension, and even if he could Mr..
Kilgore has proved that he can pre-
vent legislation on suspension day
"Hatch still has the chance Of get
ting a day set for consideration, said
Amos Cummings to-day, but we fill
busters have shown what we can do,
ard there is absolutely no show for
him"
Mr.. Hatch did not make any attempt
to-day TO get up the bill Some mem
bers think that he will try to tack it
on to the pure food bill, but the OPP
ponents Of the measure are awake, and
when he tries they will prevent the
passage of the pure food bill

Apache Soldiers.

As to the merits of the Apache as soldier says correspondent of the San Fransisco Chronicle, he doesn't seem to have many. He can withstand an incredible amount of fatigue. A body of Apache h. tantry will make force march in better time and can arrive in better fighting trim than the average reg ular cavalry. When the line of bat tie is drawn up MT. Apache is not there. From time immemorial the Apache warrior has fought only from ambush, and no amount of military discipline can compel him to face a fire in which he has no better chance than his enemy.
 The one thing which lures the Indian from the reservation into the army is his love of the uniform. He cares more for bright colors and gilt trappings than for his wives even more than he does for eating. The glittering epaulettes and shin ing buttons irresistibly charm the svage eye. An Apache sergeant in full regimental uniform is an object of the profoundest reverence to every male in his tribe and to the squaws he is a thing to be adored. Then they like the evolutions and military maneuvers. They enjoy the music, especially lively and spirited martial airs.
 The number of Indians now serv- ing in this department is in the neighborhood of five hundred. They are organized into companies of fifty each, with white officers, though there have been some few promotions to junior grades. The companies are not all full, however, by reason of occasional assertions and natural causes.

A Serious Shooting Affray.

A shooting scrape, that is likely to result fatally to the victim, oc. cured in the sand wash, near Man uel Ruiz's house, last Wednesday evening. The participants in the row were all Mexicans, and had been to a baile at Jose Torres, house, and adjourned to Manuel Ruiz place. They had been drink ing and Rosendo Dorame and An astacio Barela got into a rangle, when Dorame drew his pistol and shot Barela, the ball striking the inner extremity of the left collar bone, penetrated the upper portion of the right lung and lodged some where under the right shoulder blade.
 After doing the shooting Dorame, accompanied by Andres Cano and Juan Baca, started north and were followed by Antonio Galvan, who overlook them near Klein's mill, and called upon the man who did the shooting to stop. The reply was a fusilade of bullets, one of which perforated Galvan's hat and another his. coat. Galvan dropped to the ground, and the fugitives thinking no doubt they had killed him, increased their speed and were soon out of sight.
 Galavan returned to town and informed Sheriff Thompson of the shooting, who, with Deputy Cress- we'll, started out after Dorame and his companions, but thus far have been unable to locate them.
 The condition of Barela is critic al and there is little hope of his recovery.-Silver Belt.

From the Needles Eye of the 23d of last month we clip the following relative to a former risident of Gal lup:
 "John Doyle, who conducted the section boarding car at Fenner, killed himself Thursday morning about g o'clock by putting a bullet through his brain. The unfortu- nate man placed a revolver in his mouth and discharged it. The tragedy, as near as can be learned, was the outcome of domestic troubles. Doyle and his wife did not get along happily together, and on Wednesday he threatened to kill her the next morning. Fearing he would carry out his threat, she took the first train to Barstow. Doyle the next morning killed himself in- stead. The deceased was 60 years of age. Justice Carroll went from here on the first train to hold the inquest. The jury rendered a yer dict in accordance with the facts"

Manuel Rodondo who came in from Saric, Sonora, yesterday, re- ports the capture of one of Frank Oury's murderers at that place. He was arrested on his own declaration by Jose Rebeil, a merchant of the town. After drinking rather freely of mescal he spoke of himself and said he was one of the party of Mexicans who had been held up by three Americans in Arivaca, Ari- zona, and they had been obliged to kill one in order to get away. Upon making this statement he was at once placed under arrest by Re- bell and is now detained in the Saric jail. He gave his name as Asbedo. A family of tha. name resides at Calabasas and if the ar- rested man is member of said family then undoubtedly he i9 an American citizen.

On the same date 1900 ewes, 1900 eve and wether lambs, belong ing 10 A. Humphrey, will be sold for the same cause.

Wool Market.

Bradstreet's says: The market has fattened out again to a consid- erable extent, and sales fallen off, The few large buyers that recently visited the market have filled up, and no one seems disposed to fol- low in their footsteps, for the pres ent at least, Wool is in large sup ply, and the trade is free to sell at as low figures as have been seen this season, if they can find any one to purchase. The bad outlook for woolens gives manufacturers lit tie confidence, however, and they keep their purchases of raw mate rial close to their necessities. Fine fieeces are quiet and steady at 23@ 24c. for xxx and above Ohio, with No. wools very slow, sales being made as low as 24c. for clothing grades. Delaines are in moderate supply, and Ohio grades move hard above 24c., while sales have been reported as low as 23@233c. Ter ritory grades are in large supply, and quoted on a basis of about 35 @36c., secured. Australian wools are dull, and sell at a sharp loss to the importer.

merits of it, and within the incred ible short spice of five days come iup smilingly with majority of 1C to against it, virtually saying you have not the intelligence to govern yosFselves; we will keep you under our protecting wing a few hundred years longer.
 l. Oh, who would not live in a Re- public where man may go where his capabilities will take him where all men are born free and equal. If a year under the rule of the royalty, y,sentlmentality and gush attendant upon an imperial govern ment will not make a patriot of an American, he must, of necessity, be impervious to the beauties attend ing self-goyernment, the ground work of Democracy. When the grand old man received the mes- sage informing him of the disposi- ton the Lords had made of his bill, he immediately forwarded a mes sage to the Queen, the contents of which has been made public. That the bill will not remain in it's pres ent condition, goes without saying. We await developments.
 The disestablishment measure is not dead, but slumbering, It has not come in for public discussion thus far; but that it is assuming de- finite shape and proportions is be- yond the peradventure of doubt, and that it will be an accomplished fact, within the next decade, is req sonably certain. So mote it be.

A COMMERCIAL house of Denve,

A COMMERCIAL house of Denver has contracted to ship five thousand tons of Colorado hay to Liverpool via Galveston, Tex. This is the first shipment of the kind ever made from the west. The firm claim they can lay the product down in Liverpool for s12.75 per ton, and as hay in England is now worth $S per ton above the usual figure, the profit to the Colorado shippers is very respectable.

REFERRING to the Yuma Senti- nel's statement in regard to Arizo- mas claim of $17,000 against the Federal government, for board of Indian prisoners, the Star adds l: 'sIt has also been found that by an act of Congress passed January 9, 1867, the net proceeds of the inter- nal revenue collected in the Terri tory for the three years 1S67-6S-69, were to be devoted to the erection of a Territorial penitentiary, the amount so appropriated not to ex- ceed the sum of s40O0O. Not one cent of this money has ever been received by the Territory. Every
