Yesterday was an exciting day on Com
nercsal street. three rsiraTays occurring
between 2s3o and SD in the afternoon No
sooner were the people along the street
back at their business after witnessing

the scene. and at last people commenced
TO think that all the horses IN the city

John Burns, the pioneer rancher. was
thrown from A wagon near Iesler

wound as well as having his LETT arm
bruised He was picked up Apparently
unconscious. and taken to police head

caught south of the city some distance.
The wagon was badly broken.

30 the Rainier Produce Company started
down Front street from Pike about 8
O'Clock taking the middle of the street.
The driver, Joseph Bsrswell. kept his seat
for a time and guided the horses though
unable TO check them in their fight, and
was finally thrown from his seat into the
street in front OF the Northern hotel. Al
ter running two blocks further the team
struck a telephone pole which caused it
to come 10 standstill. No damage was
done
third runaway occurred about $50 in
the afternoon. when a small black horse

IN GENERAL

The United Typothctae of America has
elected +. II. Andrews, of Rochester, \.
". president.
President Cleveland has agreed to
press the button which will start the ma
chincry of the Atlanta exposition.
The Dutch oil tank steamer La Cam
pine, which arrived at New York from
Antwerp, picked up two French fisher
men adrift in their dory on the Banks on
Aug. t. When rescued the men were ex-
hausted, having been adrift for forty
six hours without food or water. They
lost sight of their vessel in 4 fog.
II. G. Dun & Co. in their weekly re-
view of trade say: Business continues
unusually active for midsummer, and
though there is perceptble relaxation
there are no signs of reaction. The one
change of great Importance which the last
week has brought is cminently helpful
the amicable settlement between coal
miners and employers in Western Penn
sylvania, Ohio and Indiana. 1t is said
that about 100000 men will have their
wages increased after Oct. l by this ad-
iustment, and while the enlargement of
purchasing power is OF consequence it
seems even more important that q chronic
cause of controversy has been removed
by the new agreement as to company
stores. There is no important change in
eminently good news.
The following is the standing of the
clubs in the National League:
Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1894-1895, 1895-08-16
WASHINGTON,

Statistics received at the Indian Bureau
show that 10000 Indians are now en-
gagged in farming, stOck-raising and other
civilized pursuits. During the year they
raised over 1,313,OOO bushels of corn,
and other grain aid vegetables in proper
ton. They own 2O6, 900 head of cattle
and 1,2S4,000 sheep. About $4,000 In
dams voted at the last election. 1t is es-
timated that 10000 out of the total In
dian population of 24I 900 are church
members. Out of the 241 900, $50, 900 are
selfsupporting and $4,000 pay taxes.
There has been received at the navy de-
partment a sample of steel three-fourths
of an inch in thickness, which had been
pierced By rifle bullet of a caliber less
than that of the present army rifle, or
about 80. The sample is interesting in
that it shows the torpedo-boats may be
rendered useless by good shots from such
rifles. The distance from which the steel
sample was pierced was about two hun
drcd feet. A torpedo-boat armor, her
boiler and explosives. might easily be
pierced at this distance, or before she
could make her projectile dangerous to a
ship The bullet was of steel and point
ed. 1t made Il remarkably clean hole in
the steel.
Secretary Morton has issued n special
order regulating the importation of sheep
and lambs from Canada for immediate
slaughter. These will be admitted into
the United States hereafter when accom-.
panied by certificates having the follow
ing new and more liberal provisions: "A
certificate from the official veterinary in
spector of the port of export or district
in which the animals were raised or fed
stating that no contagious disease affect
ing sheep has existed there during the last
three months. An affidavit from the OWL
er or importer that such animals are from
the district covered by the certificate: that
they were not elsewhere during n period
of three months preceding shipment, and
that when not driven they have been ship
ped direct to the port of import IN clean
or disinfected cars"
The Navy Department has determined
to give the cruiser Atlanta thorough
Overhauling next winter il Congress can
be induced to appropriate the necessary
funds. 1t will cost about $780, 600 to do
this, but if the plans in contemplation are
carried out the old Atlanta will be prac-
tically a new ship when she energies
from the hands of the workmen. She will
be given new boilers, perhaps some of
them of the tubular type, new triple ex-
