WITH THE TRAVELLERS.

Maj. Mclaughlin, Indian agent at
the Standing Rock agency, is in the
city, quarsered at the Merchants. He
arrived here yesterday morning, and
will remain until tonight, when he will
start for the agency. To GLOBE re-
porter he gave few moments of his
time. He mad succeeded, he said. in
lodging newspaper men through the
day yesterday, but gracefully surren-
dered when cornered at last. although
he acknowledged the proposition was a
little tough.
''You will understand" sal the
major, THAT haven't anything against
the newspaper men. On the contrary,
think them very good kind of people.
l am not fond of being interviewed.
that's all. went to Washington about
three weeks ago and am Oh my way
home. call the agency at Standing
Rock 'home,' because 1 have lived there
for the past thirteen years. The In
dians l have in charge are the most
aggressive branch of the Sioux. They
are the ones to whom Sitting Bull be-
longed. At the agency they are all do
ing splendidly. They are progressing in
the way Of civilization, too-not in great
strides, to be sure, but they are ad-
vanclng steadily in this direction. Some
years ago we tried to make agriculturists
of them. but not with any marked sue
cess, owing to the lack of rain. That's
what we need there now. by the way.
Their chief industry is stockraislng.
They own about $1,000 head of cattle.
There are at the agency just 3.S5s Sioux.
We take census every three months
and correct the rolls. In 1876 a part of
the Sioux migrated over the interna-
tional boundary line. The Canadian
government did not want them, but they
remained there just the same. Since 1
was in Washington l have learned
that from fifty to sixty of
them have come back into the states,
Ell route for Standing Rock. They
must be in the vicinity of Fort Ber-
thold by this time. When they reach
Standing Rock agency, they will be
distributed to the agencies where they
properly belong. A large number of
them will probably be allowed to re-
main at Standing Rock. Some will go
to the Cheyenne River agency, the
Ogalallas to Pine Ridge and the
Brules will be sent to the Rosebud
agency"
Maj. Mclaughlin was reappninted
agent at Standing Rock on April %,
and his appointment was confirmed
early in May.

BAROMETER HILL.

When the schedule of ''sundries" was
reached yesterday, Senator Hill sent up
an amendment putting coal on the free
list, and supported his amendment in
speech which is described as passionate,
pleading for redemption of pledges"
The senator has not been credited here
tOfore with any especial care for the re-
demption of promises, or known as
strenuous advocate of purely revenue
tariff. The time to have taken this
attitude was when the bill was being
mangled in the committees rooms, and
then the senator was only known to be
looking after the welfare of New York
Industries. But conversion is better
late than never, if indeed the senator
has had change of heart, thing we
very much doubt, and shall continue to
doubt until a long probation has estab-
fished 1t. The theory more consistent
with the reputation the senator has
established for himself is that, with a
keener ear than his fellows In the senate
have, he has had it to the ground and
heard the distant rumble which portends
the coming storm in the party, and is
now busily excavating his cyclone
cellar. He has not been so long in the
senate that his ear has become dulIed to
those sounds which indicate the drift of
thought in the party, and he has caught
on to the opinion. all but universally
held, of the action of the senate. This
is the only value there Is in the present
position assumed by the senior senator
rom New York. 1t indicates an area
of low barometer.

Particulars of the Hong Kon &
Disease and Mortality.
SAN. FRANCISCO. june 1S.f- The
steamer Belgic arrived here today with
fuller details OF the black plague now
raging at Hong Koug. When the vessel
{efeared the scare over the res ult
COT the first disclosure OF the
, apidemic's progress had subsidized con-
Sjderably, and 1t was svainly hoped the
disease would soon be stamped out.
Mortality statistics. however, revealed
the terrible character of the disease. De-
spite the operations of the sanitary staff
-tand the police, assisted by the army
medical staff corps ana soldiers. about
\ 5OO new Cases had been reported
within week, and there had been 400
deaths. 70 cap the climax, AN outbreak
-Yf smallpox WAS dreaded. For a day
Z or two the people thought the epidemic
WAS losing its yirulence. Another ia
sNOrable indication appeared to be the
cooperation of the Chinese who were
said to be assisting in the detention Of
cases and the removal of patients to the
hospitals. The rate of mortality dropped
temporarily.
II The prevalence of the disease created
good deal OF alarm in the different
shipping quarters in communication
with the port. Saignou aud the other
ports Of the French colonies quar-
antined all vessels arriving from
Hong Kong. Singapore followed suit.
and the outlook for shipping interests
were becoming serious. The disease
increased In virulence. and the discov-
cry of greater number of cases aroused
the enmity of the Chinese, who had for
short time appeared willing to CO.
operate with the authorities on bringing
TO llghf all known cases.
Attempts were made to evade the in
spectlOn. Sick persons were removed
IRON house to house at the approach of
police, houses We're barricaded, and in a
few cases the officers were stoned by
the infuriated Chinese. Owing to these
difficulties the epidemic gained renewed
virulence.
News from Canton. where the plague
started. states that the death rate now
averages 200 day. During March and
April they averaged 500 daily. AL
though the fact that the .'black death''
was raging in Canton became known
only about month ago. it appears that
the disease started as long ago as last
February.

BODY FOUND IN A VAULT.
B0Y or SEVEN RUys aWAY BECAUSE

BY HIS morHEa-aUEEn CASE.

Coroner Whitco,nb Thinks 1t Sur
rounded by Suspicious Cir
cumstances and Decides to
Hold an InQuest-Boy Could
Not Have Fallen Into the Hole
Inquiry This Morning.
Abe Nettleson, seven-year-old boy,
met horrible miShap yesterday. which
caused his death.
Abe Is the oldest boy Of Sam Nettle-
son. living at 1877 West Seventh street.
Yesterday morning he was dressed, and
started out for a walk. not attending
school at present. He did not return
during the day, and late in the day the
parents became alarmed, and notified
the police. asking for aid in his recov-
cry. No trace had been discovered Of
the missing child in the city. although
every substation was promptly notified
to keep a lookout for HIM. A search
was then instituted near the residence,
in an onthouse. A pole was secured, and
the body of the boy was found in the
vault, death having resulted from
asphyxiation. The body was recovered
at 10 O'clock last night. being twelve
hours from the time the child first left
his home.
Coroner Whitcomb was notified, and
he responded at once. Investigation
revealed the fact that the boy ran
away because his mother had threatened
him with punishment. An examination
OF the outhouSe disclosed that it was
impossible for the child to have fallen
through the aperture while in a
sitting posture. The coroner did not
quite like the appearance of affairs, an d
finally ordered the body to be removed
to the undertaking establishment of
Gross & Dohm, at Seven corners. and
will hold an examination this morning.
1t is strange that the boys hat
was not discovered until a late
hour last night. at which time it was
found on the floor of the building.
Quite number of persons must have
visited the place during the day. 1t is
believed there are sufficient suspicious
circumstances surrounding the affair to
warrant closer inquiry, which in case
of accident only. can do no harm.

ARTIFICIAL FEET.

AOOle Barron Supplied at the City
Hospital.
No doubt many readers of the GLOBE
will remember the sad accident that be-
fell Addie Barron last winter. Ex-
hausted from a fruitless days search
for work, she sat down on log on the
ice of the Mississippi and was caught
in blizzard. The girls feet were so
badly frozen that one had to be ampu-
tated entirely and the other iD part.
Since that time the relief society has
interested itself in the case and raised
800 with which to purchase artificial
feet for the girl. she being of poor
family. Yesterday John Mcclure, the
artificial limb man, successfully accom-
plished the task OF fitting her out with
the necessary members. performing the
work at the city hospital.
The girl is now nineteen years of age
and appreciates the timely aid ex-
tended to her. which was indeed a
worthy act of charity. She is am.
'bitious to make an honest living for
herself. and as soon as. she has become
accustomed to her artificial feet will be
able to get about alone. and make some
efforts to crafty her desire to be self
sustaining.

A FORMAL invitation from prominent

stone to pay visit to this country. 1t
is extremely doubtful it the venerable
statesman will be able to accept. He
has always had horror of sea VOYAGES.
and only the imperative orders of his
physicians have availed to induce him
to cross the channel on few occasions.
But America would delight to honor the
grand old man. He is as popular here
as he is in his native land, and would
meet with reception second only in
magn!ficence to that which would be
accorded his sovereign, and far more
sincere and heartfelt.
