"Honored Sir:-Now that the great
strike in which your official interview

clearly shown to be a failure, [ beg to
be allowed to express my unqualified
satisfaction with every step you have
taken in vindication of the national
authority and with the restoration of

now in progress.
1.-The caution and elaboration with
which you have proceeded are, L think,
worthy, like the accompanying firm

specially gratifed that a great and val
liable lesson in constitutional construc-

remarkably little blood shed. You and
the encouragement also have won the

Great shane

Belfast, July 17.-An accident today
robbed the vigilant of some of her
glory in outsailing the Prince of Wales
Britannia, which is her due. The Wig
liant was in lead nearly six minutes

and she dropped out.
Today's race. the eighth in which
the Britannia and the Vigilant have
been matched against each other, was
for the Rear Commodore cup and a
money prize. over the course sailed
yesterday. fifty miles on the Belfast

perienced. The start was made at

by L minute II seconds, and at the
second turn she had increased her
lead by 40 seconds. At the third boat

ahead. The first round was finished as
follows: The Vigilant, 11:55:3S; Britain
MIA. 12:59:29. The Vigilant's lead was
2 minutes, 81 seconds. To the next
turn an additional gain of two sec
onds was made. The Britannia in the
last round had her bob stay carried
away. She lowered the fOreSall, took
in the topsail and gave up the race
That the Vigilant is the best sailer
in a stiff breeze was demonstrated to
everybody's satisfaction. for when she
rounded the mark, finishing half the
race. she led the Britisher by min
utes. 10 seconds, and at the boat off
the South Briggs was minutes, A
seconds ahead. The time at the con-
clusion of the second round was: Wig
liant. 2:34:54; Britannia, 2:40:27, the
Americans lead having been reduced
10 seconds in the run from the South
Briggs to the Bangor boat. The Bri-
tannia had scarcely started for the
Carrick Fergus mark boat, on the final
round. than she sustained the accident
that took her out of the race. Captain
Carter received a bad cut on the head
by the fall of some tackle as the Bri-
tannia's gaff was carried away. The
Vigilant sailed the course home and

Terminated in a riot, occurred in to-
days game between Philadelphia and
Boston. Tucker had his cheek bone
broken by blow and several other Bos-

At the end of the seventh inning the
score stood 2 to l in Boston's favor. AT
this juncture the weather became threat

might be downpour of rain at any
moment The home team went in and
by hard hitting, scored seven runs in the
eighth inning. After the seven runs had
been scored the Boston players used
every effort to delay the game and finally
refused to play. Umpire Campbell, after
waiting a few minutes for the Boston
players to proceed with the game, gave
the home team the decision by to o.
The Boston players who were sitting
on the players bench, began packing
their bats away and started to leave the
grounds. The crowd surged upon the
field and gathered around Tucker, and

Washington, July 17.-Daily reports
received at the war department from
troops engaged in preventing disturb
ances on the railroads in the west,
show that the resistance of the strik-
ers has generally diminished from for
midable rioting to petty annoyance
and obstruction.

Instructions have been encountered on

Montana.
There is friction on all the Pacific
roads.
From San Francisco, General Ruger
reports that it will be necessary to
send the trains out under guard for
some time.
General Miles reported to headquar-
tiers the frightful accident at Chicago
yesterday.
General Miles will take steps to as
certain how it occurred, and he may
appoint board for this purpose.
AS soon as in General Miles judg-
ment it will be advisable to do so, the
regular troops now in Chicago will be
withdrawn but until General Miles so
recommends, no suggestion or outside
request viii have any effect with the
authorities here. The history of the
Chicago riots has confirmed in official
circles here the belief in the Aoundness
Iof General SchofielPs favorite policy
Iof consolidating the troops at great
central posts near large cities.
1t is the intention now to carry out
this idea so far as practicable The
first manifestation of this decision will
be at Chicago, for although the troops
will be withdrawn from the city, they
will go to Fort Sheridan, firteen miles
distant. and none of the companies,
batteries and troops that have been
brought to Chicago from eastern and
western points will be sent back tc
their posts. They win constitute the
permanent garrison ~ Fort Sheridan,
which. with this powerful force To-
Icated so as to be easily and quickly
marched to Chicago or to 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 standing
army, this may involve the practical
abandonment of many of the smaller
posts in the west.

London, July 17.-Lord Salisbury, in
the House of Lords, moved the second
reading of the alien bill.
Lord Roseberry thereupon declared
the question was less urgent than at
the time the noble marquis was in Of
fee when no legislation was thought
necessary. Alien immigration has great
ly decreased.
He had the authority of the police
officials to say no outrages against for
eign governments had been Matched in
Great Britain. The present laws pro-
vided a sufficient remedy against per-
sons meditating crimes. He said the
government could accept no part of the
bill.
Lord Salisbury generally defended the
position he had taken and said in re-
gard to crimes Matched in England that
it was the fault of the law and not of
the police that England was & most
unwilling harboreE of such criminals.
He did not expect the bill would pass
at the present session. but the respon-
sibility lay with the government.
The measure then passed its second
reading by a vote of SO to 81.

Oklahoma, o. T., July 17.-Jasper Jen-

country, reports serious trouble between
the Indians and the settlers. The ranch
men are preparing for conflict
The trouble has been brewing since
April last, when two Indians and white
man were killed in an affray. The seat
of the present rouble is Red Moon,
hamlet in Mills county, and the dissatis-
faction extends to all the Indians in G
and Washita counties. 1t is a sparsely
settled region in the northern part of
Oklahoma and is the widest in the ter
ritory. There are more Indians than
whites in the three counties named,
which accounts for the alarm felt. Set
tiers in the neighborhood of Red Moon

termining to defend their homes indepen
dent of the United States troops, the
nearest post being two days travel dis

the lands and permit their cattle and
horses to run at will to the damage of
the settlers crops. Settlers are wont to
shoot the trespassing animals. Men
posted in Indian affairs say that in the
event of a fight much blood will be s-led
as the Indians are well armed.

No End, Apparently, to the New Jer-

Egg Harbor City, N. j., July 17-There
is no end yet to the forest fires that
have been raging in this vicinity for the
past week. Today an entire village was
wiped out. The flames that have been
sweeping towards Bridgeport were turned
aside by a swift wind last night, and
during the early hours of the morning
they reached point near the little ham
let of Green Bush. The residents, in
the meantime, had driven their live stock
to a place of safety, and when 1t became
apparent the village was doomed they
loaded their household effects into wa
CONS and hurried them away.
Much still remained to be moved when
the flames reached the houses. The VIII
lage stood in little clearing in the
pine belt and the stacks of hay and dry
wooden buildings proved even better food
for the elements than the woods around.
