The veterans OF the Seventh Rhode
Island Regiment held their 22nd annual
reunion aud business meeting at Silver
Spring today. They left Providence at
10 a. m. on the Bay Queen. Soon after the

About seventy-five members and their
families ware present. The principal
business was the discussion of the histori-
cal committees report. A large amount
of material had been collected for his
tory of the regiment. All that is lacking is
funds to publish. The committee was

to its completion. The election of Off
GERS resulted in the reelection OF Judge
Nathan b. Lucas to the presidency; first
vice-prcsident, Captain Gustavus ID.
Bates; second vice. president, Lieutenant
James f.. Merrill; treasurer, James +.
Maynard; secretary. Charles w. Hopkins
After the business meeting the party as
sembled for dinner in Maxfield's dining
rooms, where special bake was served.
After-dinner speeches were wanting as
the members OF the 9TH are fighters rather
than takers. The veterans reassembled
after the dinner for the purpose of revis-
ing the membership and tho rehearsing
of "reminiscences. The records show two
deaths since the last reunion-Waite II.
Kenyon, who resided at 151 Dex-
ter street, July 30, 1893, and
Henry r. Dexter, Company ID, who
died in Foster, Nov. %, 1893. The 9TH

TO HONOR DEAD.
Memorial to Be Placed in st.
Francis Cemetery.
G. A. R. Committee Accept Design
for Tribute to Departed Heroes.

The committee appointed some time ago
from the various q. A. r. posts to con-
slider the erection OF soldiers and sailors
monument on the lot in st. Francis ceme-
terry, donated by Bishop Harkins, met at
department headquarters last evening at
the call of the chairman, John Il. Drinan.
The purpose of the meeting was TO hear
the report of Comrades Walsh, West, Cul-
len, Mulvey, Caokley, Richards and Pick
on design. They had received de-
signs and accompanying specifi-'
cations from % different sculptors
and the one recommended was that sub
mitted by Casey and Sherwood of the
Groton Granite Works, and this design
was adopted. 1t is FOR a monument not
to exceed in cost 5000, to be built of the
best of Gorton granite. The dimensions
of the monument called for by the plans
are 9x9 feet at the base and height of "a
feet. The cap represents the ramparts of
q fortihcation, and above this is the
statue of a color bearer, while on the
sides are to be the regulation emblems of
crossed rifles and laurel wreath for the
infantry, the crossed cannon and pyramid
of cannon balls for the artillery and the
capstan, cable and anchor for the
navy. The general effect is one
of symmetry and compactness
and the monument will be lasting
credit to the good taste as we'll as to the
patriotic gratitude of those who are to
erect it in memory of the comrades who
fought with them third of century
ago.
The monument itself is to be surrounded
by a handsome enclosure of posts sur
mounted by cannon balls.
The work OF soliciting funds will be left
to committees to be appointed in each Of
of the following organizations: Farragut
Association of Naval Veterans, Prescott
Post 1, Arnold Post 4, Rodman Post IL,
Ives Post 13, Slocum Post 10, Tower Post
IL, Bucklin Post 20, Brown Post 25.

A NOTED VETERAN DEAD.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. 22.-Quartius
&. Rust, veteran of prominence in the
Mexican and Civil wars, and an original
character, well known among GAR. men,
was found dead last night on the old road
west Of Indianapolis. His head was
crushed under his buggy and his horse
dead also. There il nothing TO explain
the mystery OF death, murder and acci-
dent being both entertained.
"Quart Rust, as he was called, was
widely known for his claim, never dis
puted, that he killed the rebel general
Zollicoffer in the battle of Perrysville,
KY, in 1862. Until the war he was
a Democrat and SO popular in
this district that he ran for the
Congressional nomination against the
late Senator Joseph II. L. Mcdonald and
was beaten by only one vote. That was
Immediately after his return from the fa-
nous trip across the plains with General
Fremont, wherein Rust gained special
praise from Fremont.

NO CHANGE YET.
Mill Men Denounced How
lands Action as Sneaky.
Much Activity among Operatives in
the Formation OF Unions.

New BEDFORD, Mass, Aug. 22-The
strike situation has undergone no material
change since yesterday. All the mills re-
main closed and the disposition OF both
sides seems to be as determined as ever.
Secretary Ross OF the Spinners' Union and
Treasurer Rowland are having confer
ence this forenoon at which the date of
the reopening of the Rowland Corpora
tions will be determined.
The criticism of Mr.. Rowland by the
other manufacturers continues to be very
bitter.
One Bennett Mill director has come out
in an interview in which he accuses Mr..
Howland of "mean and sneaky" conduct
in as much as he was represented at the
now famous meeting of treasurers by
the agent of his mills, Byron f..
Card. Messrs. Rowland and Card
in interviews today answer these attacks.
Mr.. Card states that MIR. Howland knew
nothing of the meeting till long after it
was over, that he (Card) attended ii at the
request of the treasurer but had no vote
and that he agreed to post the notices of
reduction subject 10 Mir. Howland's action
on his return.
The latter heard first OF the reduction
on his return. and on Monday rescinded
1t. The various unions held more meet
ings today. Even the Juvenile operatives
are active in the matter, the doffers and
backboys forming new unions. Many of
the strikers are spending the time in the
country blackberrying and others. go fish
ing every day.
AT mass meeting on the Common to-
day, Secretary Hart bitterly scored Treas
urer Andrew G.. Peirce for his attitude re-
garding the particulars bill. He insisted
that cuts were heightened in the Wam-
sutta mills and that Mr.. Peirce
knew it. He said the opera
tives were worse treated in New Bedford
than anywhere else in the State.
Another speaker declared that the
weavers had the right OF law to go into
every mill in the city and cut the cloth
off their looms.

SHOT BY MISTAKE.
Mining Officials Mistaken in the Dark
for an Obnoxious Sheriff.
BIZ The Associated Press.

CRIPPLE CREEK, Col, Aug. 22.-F. Il.
Wirk, president of Ben Hur Mining Com
pany, who lives in Omaha, was shot
through both arms last night, half
nile this side of Victoria,
and j. NJ. Rossberry, secretary of the
same company, who also lives in Omaha,
was shot in the neck by gang OF men
who fired over thirty shots at them from
Winchester rifles.
Wirk and Rossberry had been in
Lawrence, examining mining property,
and started home, after dark. 1t Is the
general opinion that the affair was an at
tempt to assassinate Sheriff Bowers OF
this county who has been active in max
ing arrests of miners implicated in the
Cripple Creek war and these two men were
mistaken for the sheriff and deputy.

LAST EDITION
N0INC0ME TAX.
Congress Failed to Provide
For Any Appropriation
Whereby the Income Tax Could Be
Put Into Operation.

NEW YORK, Aug. 22.--The Sun has a
special from Washington which says:
'In addition to the long list of errors
found in the German tariff bill, the sur
prising discovery has been made today by
the treasury department officials that no
appropriation has been made for putting
into effect the income tax provisions.
The collectors OF Internal Revenue
can do nothing, under these
circumstances, in the direction of pre-
pairing TO collect the income tax. The
treasury officials claim TO be blameless,
for they forwarded to the appropriations
committee, more than month ago, an
estimate for an initial appropriation Of
100000 To be used during the current
fiscal year in carrying out the income tax
provisions OF the Tariff bill IL
The Secretary of the Treasury,
through the Commissioner OF Internal
Revenue, estimated that the appointment
of $50 deputy collectors and Is or % addi-
tjonal clerks in the Washington Office
would be necessary TO begin the prelimi-
nary work. Whether by accident or de-
sign, neither the House nor the Senate
appropriation committee paid any atten-
tion to Secretary Carlisle's estimate,
and the Internal Revenue bureau
is, therefore, helpless and must
defer all arrangements until Congress
provides the necessary money. This will
not be done at the present session, as,
60 l. ~ an In ott bor
house, no business can be transacted ex-
cept by unanimous consent, which, of
course, cannot be obtained for the pur-
pose OF saving the unpopular and un-
Democratic income tax law from disas-
ter.
Commissioner OF Internal Revenue Mil
Ter admits that Congress strangely failed
to provide the necessary money, but is
hopeful that when the two houses re-
assemble in December the amount OF his
estimate will be included in an urgent
deficiency appropriation bill, SO that
the administration OF the new
law will be made possible. The
commissioner is remarkably sanguine,
however, in view Of the fact that Con-
gress will not meet until Dec. 3 and that
the tariff bill provides that the income
tax sections shall become operative on the
first day of January next. The blank
form upon which returns OF incomes
must be made TO the Government Off
cials on or before the first Monday in
March, 1895, has already been decided
upon, but they cannot be print
ed and distributed, or any steps
taken toward arranging for the
collection OF the tax, until
Congress makes an appropriation. AT
present the entire force of the internal
revenue bureau is working early and late
preparing for the collection OF the newly
imposed tax upon playing cards and at
tending TO the mass OF work occas oned
by the rush of the districts to get
whiskey out OF bond at the present tax
of 80 cents per gallon to anticipate the
signing OF the tariff bill by the President,
when the tax will be increased to s1.1O
it would be impossible for the commits
sioner of internal revenue to organize an
ncome tax bureau, and put in operation
