WASHINGTON, July 1s.-The daily
reports received at the war depart

venting disturbance on the railroad s

ished from rioting to petty annoyance
and obstruction This is particularly
true of the North west From San

The history of the Chicago riot has
confirmed in official circles here belief
in the soundness of General Scho-
fields favorite policy Of consolidating
the troops at grand central posts near
the large cities. At Chicago, although
the city, they will be gathered at
Fort Sheridan, and none Of the
companies, batteries and troops
from eastern and western points
viii be sent back to their
posts. They will constitute the
permanent garrison of Fort Sheridan,
which with this powe rful force so lo-
Gated as to be easily and quickly
massed at Chicago or any point Of
disturbance, will become one Of the
first units of the new system of army
posts Unless congress shall provide
for a substantial increase of the GU
lar army this may involve the prac-
teal abandonment of many Of the
smaller posts in the West.

CHICAGO, Ill, July 1s--The Eu-

leading steamship lines may result in
a wholesale exodus from Chicago of
many men connected with the late
strike Never before in the history
of steamship rates has it
been possible to go from
Chicago to any European port

been inaugurated the exodus from
Chicago and the Northwest to various
points in Europe has figured up
third of the traffic to New York, ae-
cording to the estimates of local
eamship lines, and the announce
ment Of the last great cut in rates
has started a real hegira Of European

GOOD TIMES COMING.
so SAYS A TENNESSEE IRON NAN
Because the Great Str kes are
Settled and Congress Has
Adjourned.

NEW YORK, Sept. "A. NJ.
Shook, president Of the Tennessee
Iron and Coal company and OF the
Southern Iron company is at the
Fifth Avenue hotel. He is one of
the most prominent men in the
iron industry Of the south. To a
reporter he said: Cuisines in the
south is improving and the iron
trade is sharing this Improvement.
The fact that in every southern
state we have magnificent crops
and these we'll diversified is per-
haps the most substantial reason
for the marked evidences Of i'm
provement that manifest them
selves everywhere daily. Other
causes are contributing to this
end the most potent is the fact
that the Congress has adjourned
and a tariff bill has been passed.
No great industry can be abnormal
ly prosperous or depressed with
out similarly affecting all other in
dustries. Thanks to time and the
patient endurance Of the American
people we have reached the end Of
depression ; even the chronic pessi-
mist, who has existed for the past
several years by preying upon the
blighted hopes and wrecked for
tunes of his worthy but unfortu-
nate neighbors has at last become
satisfied and ceases his wall OF Woe.
Eyes, the iron business in the
south is improving, so the ~increas-
ed production is finding a market
at a full advance of 80 cents a ton,
above the prices that was obtained
during the spring and early sum-
Hcer. The strikes are settled and
the railroads are preparing to meet
the great psessure that will be
brought to bear npon them this
fall to move the enormous crops.
This will stimulate business of
the miner and manufacture to
meet corresponding increased de-
mands for their products and they
in turn will give more employment
to labor. Then the dealer in every
line will come in for his share of
the increased benefits that will
naturally and necessarily follow
with the tide of prosperity that is
surely coming.

HOLDS POSSESSION
OF HIS PROPERTY WITH A GUN.
The Village Constables Afraid to
Arrest Him.

HUNTINGTON, l.. l., Sept. T.
Christopher DOran is holding up
the town OF Huntington with a big
shot gun. Doran owns a strip of
land on Wall street, on which is a
large sand bank. One portion of
the sand bank, is is claimed, be-
longs to the public village. The
highway commissioners were in
need of a few loads Of sand, and
Road Commissioner William H.
Lewis directed his men to go there
and dig out what was wanted.
DOran heard of it and when the
men got on the ground he stood up
on the bank fifty feet in the air and
forbid them to touch the sand. The
men returned to the village and
told Commissioner Lewis. The lat
ter took Surveyor Darling and a
gang Of men who went to the sand
bank. The party found the old man
sitting with his back to a tree with
a pile Of stones in front of him. He
refused to arbitrate, saying he had
nothing to arbitrate. When the
men began to dig he began to fire
the rocks. They were big stones
and Doran fired to kill. The men
were forced forced to retire for re-
Inducements. When they again
returned DOran had obtained a big
shot gun and awaited their arriv-
al. The attacking party scampered
hack To the VillaU9- If was a race
for life and the village thought an
army was after them. The high
way commission went before JUS
tice Hendrickson last night and
swore out a warrant for Doran's
arrest. No one, however, could be
found to serve it. All the village
constables had other business Of a
pressing nature and the old man
is still in possession Of the fort and
all efforts to dislodge has proved
futile.

Martin Laf1in Stolen by Gypsies,
Finds His Relatives After
Twenty Years.

LIMA, O., Sept. 7.-Twenty-fOur
years ago Martin Lafilin lived with
his parents near the village Of Kos
suth. When they left left Martin
was stolen by Gypsies. He roved
with the band for years during
which time his name was changed
to Henry Shaffer. Some time
afterwards the Gypsies again re-
turned to this part Of the country,
when young Shaffer ran away and
began working on a farm near
Beaver Dam, this country. He
finally came to Lima where he be-
gan driving stock for a stock buy
err. After his escape from the band
that kidnapped him he forgot his
real name and where his parents
had resided. He would probably
never have known but for an acct
dental happening. He entered in
to conversation with a stranger.
After a time Shaffer introduced
himself and the stranger gave his
name. 1t was George Lafllin.
Shaffer was for the moment unable
to speak but finally asked the gen.
tleman if he remembered OF any Of
his relatives TO have disappeared
years ago. Laffiin asked him if he
was Martin Laftlin. Explanations
followed and Shaffer learned his
mother was still alive. The re-
union took place last night and
was a happy affair. During all
these years Martin lived within
twenty miles of his home and
bought stock of parties living with
in four miles Of the old farm. At one
time he lived five doors from his
unCln.
