was invisible. Each man had In his
possession light uniform consisting Of
blue flannel shirt. duck trousers and
belt, thin glazed hat, a knapsack and
Spencer rifle with twelve rounds of
ball cartridges. This uniform could be
put on in a few moments
At half-past five on the morning Of
the 18th the men thus equipped
came to Tompkin's square from all
points Of the city. The inhabitants in
the neighborhood looked on with the
lazy interest that a military parade
awakens in the metropolis, but no one
knew or cared to inquire whether the
regiment had arrived en- masse by an
early train or had come in the night
before.
The troops had to wait till nine
o'clock for the platoon of mounted
police that was to precede them. Gen.
Waterson, the colonel commanding,
communicated with the sergeant of
the squad through his adiutant. They
had been invited, he said, to visit Wall
street and the sub-treasury. They
were then to march to Gen. Grants
tomb for battalion evolutions.
It does not appear that any suspi-
cions up to this time were awakened
in the police, who regarded the con-
spicuous cartridge belts of the men as
piece of western military nonsense,
and it was not within their line of duty
to question the visit of the officers to
the sub-treasury. If the sub-treasury
did not want their western visitors
they would shut the doors in their
faces.
1t was twenty minutes past nine
when the regiment, preceded by the
police, and with the colonel and his
staff, dismounted, left the park and it
was ten o'clock when it wheeled into
Broadway at Eighth street, making a
solid and formidable appearance in its
homely uniforms and soldierly bear
ing:
Nothing occurred along the route Of
consequence to interfere with its prog
ress. The inhabitants looked upon it
as part of the constantly recurring
| show of that highway; careless re-
marks were here and there made about
the cheap get-up, but the crowds eyed
it careless1y and went on their way.
It was just fifteen minutes of eleven
by the Trinity clock when the armed
force turned into Wall street and five
minutes later it had come to
a halt in front NJ the sr1b-treaSurv

but both are willing to submit the case
to their mother for arbitration, which
they do. Just how she settled it don't

''to be foolhardy. and the lives of these

avoid bloodshed."
Sheriff, arrest this man." cried the
general. HE defies law, and we are
under cover of the guns Of the state
troops"
Hendricks took q step toward them.
Zone moment" he said, before you
attempt to arrest me. You and your
men are covered by four hundred re-
peating rifles One move on your part
to arrest me and your force will be an
initiated. 1 mention this in the In
terest of humanity. If you decline to
treat me with The courtesy due to q
brave enemy, you had better retire. I
will give you two minutes to rejoin
your men,"
The impulsive general wheeled his
horse. galloped into the center of the
lawn and called, in a loud voice, as he
drew his sword:
capt. Hawkins, mass your men.
Bring up the reserves. Prepare to
storm the house"
Hendricks leaned against one Of the
pillars of the balcony.
"You see," said the sheriff, resist
ance is useless. 1t would be better to
surrender at once, as I propose to take
you now," and he made a motion to
draw his pistol.
Before he could get it fairly into his
hand, there was sharp crack Of a
rifle at short range and he half raised
himself in the stirrups and fell heavily
backward upon the horses launches,
the pistol falling upon the ground.
Hendricks stepped down and picked it
up as the horse reared and backed
away-and at that moment a crack OF
firearms was heard and he went quick
ly back into the house and shut the
door.
As soon as he got to an opening in
the barricaded window, he saw the
general wildly galloping up and down,
fourishing his sword and calling upon
his men to fall in. But many of them
were past falling in. Their bodies
were conspicuous by their uniforms,
lying where they had fallen in the
grass and the rest were budding con-
fusedly, running indeterminately into
the trees at the foot of the slope under
a murderous fire from all parts of the
house.

CHAPTER XVIII

InJune Of that year there appeared in
several Of the Indiana papers the fol-
lowing advertisements:
MILITARY EXCURSION
uniformed military companies in Indiana.
wishing to join the excursion battalion to make
q summer visit to New York In July. will please
report to Lieut. Bidwen at Indianapolis On
usual Inducements are offered to organized com
panies to join this pleasure party. The battal-
ion will be the guest Of New York for two
days"
This vague announcement of pro-
jected excursion did not fail to attract
some attention in New York. Several
of the papers referred to it in para
graphs, which briefly stated that the
militia Of Indiana intended to visit the
city during the summer.
On the 9th Of July the superinten-
dent of police in New York received q
formal letter from Indianapolis saying
that if the arrangements could be COM
pleted q regiment of Indiana militia
would visit the city on or about the
18th, and asked for the usual right to
parade and a police guard to clear the
streets At the time of the receipt Of
the letter every man of the regiment
was in New York. The men of the
force were SO widely and carefully dis
tributed that . military organization

MANY CLAIMANTS.


Hea ThOusAnd Persons Interested In the
Indian Depredatiou Cases.
WAsaINGroN. Oct A.-Ten thou
sand claimants, with nearly 81, 600, 600
at stake, are interested in the Indian
depreciation cases now before the court
of claims. Two-thirds of these claim
ants are residents of the southwest.
Since the adjournment of congress
there have been numerous inquiries
from these claimants and the $50 law
yers representing them as to the pos
sibilities of liquidation. In order to
supply the desired information, the in
terror department has allowed the fol-
lowing statement to be made:
Since the advent of the present administra-
ton judgments have been rendered against the
United States and the Indian tribes amount
ing, with those left over from the last admin
istration, to about $4,000. These judgments
gress at its last session. and an appropriation
Of s175,00o was made, less than one-third Of
the amount Of the judgments reported. In
this appropriation bill was a proviso
that before any payments could be
made the attorney-general was re-
Quired to investigate each judgment,
and il. in his opinion no additional defense
could be made on the part Of the government
and the Indians, he was to certify such judg-
ments to the treasury for payment. A question
has now arisen on the proper construction Of
this appropriation act, and the treasury de-
partment seems to be in doubt as to whether
the judgments should be paid in the order in
which they were rendered or in the order in
which they were certified for payment by the
encouragement The law directed the secre-
tary Of the interior to certify as to what funds
there are belonging to the various Indian
tribes which can be used for the payment
Of such judgments. as the funds Of the Indians
are prim arily liable under the act for such pay
ment This matter has been referred by the
secretary Of the interior to the Indian commits
sioner for report, but owing to the inacequacy
of the clerical force of the Indian bureau. it
seems questionable when report will be made.
The practical effect of that is that these judg-
ments, which it was the intention Of congress
to pay, and which it has in part provided for,
will rema in unpaid until after congress con-
venes in December, when some special legisla-
ton will probably he had.
Many Of the persons in whose favor the ludg-
ments were rendered are old and infrm, and a
great number Of them have died since then.
If there is any class of citizens whose appeals
for justice should be heard and responded to
it is those people who have risked their lives
and lost their property for the good Of the ma
ton. The decision Of the supreme court in the
test case Of Marks and WallenberS, constituting
the meaning Of the words lin amity;'' will
practically decide one-fourth of the cases

The elaborate provision for public
schools is striking characteristic of
state and territorial legislation in the
far west. North Dakota estimates the
ultimate amount of her school fund at
somewhere between $50, 00O, 900 and
$40, 000, GOO. Oregon's school fund is
now $4,000, 600. Idahos school lands
are worth nearly $1,000, 900. Kansas

benefit of her public schools Nilsson

600 for her schools Oklahoma will
one day have a large school fund, and
half dozen other western states and
territories have many millions invested
for the benefit of such funds.

SAN DIEGO. Cal, Oct. 24.-This city
and neighboring towns were visited
yesterday afternoon by a series of
earthquakes of more than ordinary Sc
verify. The first occurred at 1908 D. m
and was followed at intervals of quar-
ter of minute by two others, the last
being one of the strongest experienced
here since the coming of Americans.
People in brick houses swarmed into
the streets, hearing the startling grind
of brick and mortar and seeing, in
some cases, the walls crack. A heavy
sound was heard in all parts of the
city Immediately preceding the quake.
Considerable CONSERVATION was caused
in the public schools, the children in
some of the rooms being hastily dis
missed. Clocks were stopped and win
dOwS and doors were shaken sensibly.

He could see when the general turned
his head that a stream of blood was
running down his face from a cut in
the temple and had dyed his white
whiskers.
Wounded as he was, the old general
succeeded after awhile in withdrawing
his men across the road to the opposite
ACTIVITY, where under the shelter Of
some rocks, he reformed them and tried
to encourage them. His condition was
a distressing one. He had lost, out of
hundred and forty-four men, at least
fifty. He could not even bring them
all off and consequently did not know
if they were killed or wounded. The
sheriff was dead. He had no hospital
stores or stretchers, for it would have
required more than the ordinary mill
tary PRESENCE to have calculated upon
such a reception as this. However, he
did the best he could, and the first act
was to dispatch couriers to the nearest
telegraph station to summon assist
ance and notify the governor, he Civ
ing up his own horse to one of the
messengers.
What was his surprise about noon to
receive communication from the
house. A man dressed like an ordinary
workman was brought into his little
camp by n picket and delivered the
following note with q military salute:
ITO the Commanding Offlcer:
'SIR: You can safely remove your dead and
wounded. If you arc in need of bandages
surgical assistance or medical stores, and will
send for thcra they will be supplied until you
receive help from the state. Respectfully,
OFFICER COMMANDING OPPOSING FORCES"
The audacious GOODNESS of this pro-
ceeding aroused the old general to an
eruptive state of indignation. He tore
the message to pieces and ordered the
arrest of the messenger. Half an hour
later another arrived.
II am ordered" he said, ''to say to
you that if you do not release the mes
senger sufficient force will be sent to
take him."
Away with him. shouted the iras-
chile old general. IF he attempts to
escape shoot him."

Consul Gormann, at Matamoras, says
an increased trade with northern Mex

etc, have been added to the usual ex-
ports heretofore made and the pros

cheering, Until recently all live stock
ceased to be exported, the tariff on
horses and mules being $50 each. from
two to three times the selling value of
the animals in Mexico. This amounted
to a total prohibition and not a live
animal of any kind was exported.
