j. TRAY, formerly state treasurer
and state oil inspector, has, through
his attorney, brought suit against
the Florida mes-Union for libel.
TRAY claims that he has been

The Crops Need Rain.

GEORGETOWN, Texas, July 90
Special. Cotton is badly in need
of rain. The crop is ripening fast,
and if the dry weather continues,
cotton picking will commence
about the same time it did last
year, August Is. Opportune rains
would be Of great advantage right
now, and unless it rains soon, there
will be very slim top crop. With
favorable conditions for the re-
mainder of the season, the increase
in the yield could not reach that OF
last year. The corn crop is i'm
mense, and will yield so bushels

MIXED INDIAN MATTERS,
Governor of Wyoming and the Unit

as to the Indian Rights.

as TO the Indian Rights.
MARKET LAKE, Idaho, July 29.-
1t is evident from the present In
dian situation that there is danger
of clash of authority, and the
present field movement will be fol-
lowed by a lively battle in the
courts. Governor Richards, Of
Wyoming, insists that the Indians
will be taught that when they are
in Wyoming they are to obey the
state law. He objects to having
the settlers of Northern Wyoming
harrassed and frightened by bands
Of Indians from other states. In
dian Agent Teter, on the other
hand, made an investigation for
the government and asserts that
the Indians are in the right and
have authority to hunt in Wyom-
ing under their treaty OF 1868.
These are differences that cannot
be settled by the troops. 1t Is
learned from a reliable source that
there is a surprise in store for the
settlers in Jacksons' Hole, most of
whom believe the troops are going
to protect the settlers from the In
dams. 1t is stated that indictments
will be sworn out against every one
OF the settlers who were connected
with the killing OF the Indians VINO
tried to escape while under arrest.
- ,e IN,
mendation made by Agent Teter in
his official report of the original
trouble. The settlers will be put
on trial for the killing Of the In
dams. No mail has been received
from Jackson's Hole this week. The
stage which brings 1t out once a
week Is now four days overdue,
and nothing has yet been heard
from it. Just before the arrival OF
the troops, a number OF Bannocks
started for the Jackson's Hole
country to warn their friends and
relatives, and endeavor to get them
out of there before the soldiers ar
rived. They were peaceful Indians,
and went with the idea that the
troops would open fire on the first
Indian seen. General Coppinger,
through Indian Agent Teter, sent
to the agency for more Indians, to
overtake these runners and explain
to them !: that they tell the
Indians that il they were peacea.
BILE they would not be harmed. 1t
is the intention of the troops to
prevent any blood being shed by
either side, il possible, and en-
deavor to get the Indians to return
quietly to their reservation.
PoCATELLo, Idaho, July 29.-
Companies A, ID, E., Of the Eighth
infantry United States Army
from Fort Russell commanded by
Major Bisbee, arrived in this city
last night and left for Market Lake.
There are 275 soldiers in the comp
anies. They do not expect to
leave Market Lake until they
heard from the United States caval-
~ which left Market Lake Satur-
day afternoon for Jackson's Hole.
1t is hardly probable that the de-

The combination to the steel vault
has been found in the possession of
Chappell. 1t is now believed by
the police that Howard Pietzel
was killed in Chicago and his re-
mains disposed Of.
Chappell says he will lead In
spector Fitzpatrick where the
skeleton Of Ann Williams will be
found. He has told the police that
it is in possession Of west side
medical student who does not sus-
pect its identity. 1t is feared that
If the local news was published the
young man might dispose OF it.
Chappell was hired by Holmes to
clean the flesh of this body and
orig up" the skeleton as he had
others but, falling to get his pay he
kept 1t. 1t was the last work he
did for him.
In another place Chappell will
recover the arm and hand bones Of
Mrs. Julia Conner. They are ar
ticulated and doing service for the
science of surgery. From this
place came the skull which was
taken to the central station by De-
tectives Fitzpatrick and Norton,
Saturday. The police thought at
first this was part of the remains
of Anna Williams. Chappell does
not make plain just how he knows
to the contrary-iD fact the police
do not see how he will do so with
out bringing strong suspicion up
on himself, but he says unequivo-
cally: "The hand belonged to Mrs.
Connor-I know that absolutely"
Besides these matters the police
have secured the trunk which
Holmes said he had used in sink
ing Annie Williams in the lake.
There are plenty Of signs that it
once held body that was multi
lated, and Chappell says Holmes
brought the trunk to his home
with the remains Of Annie Will

ain this way" said Inspector
Fitzpatrick, "we are told how four
victims of the Englewood house
were disposed Of. This witness
took away the skeletons partly
cleaned and asked no questions.
He got $3.50 for each job. One of
the bodies was that Of q man. We
have not been able to conclude
who it was, but the superstition
was that this was Robert Phelps,
who was supposed to have married
Miss Cigrand. Holmes said he
wanted him to take particular
care OF the bodies Of the
two children and was so anxious
about it that he offered to pay him
$3.50 for the job. Our witness says
he refused to mount the bodies of
any children, but he does not say
anything to explain what distinc-
ton he saw between children's
bodies and others IL his business
was legitimate, and hei had no
knowledge OF foul play. You see
it's all very suspicious"
Search for traces Of many sup
posed victims of HI. HI. Holmes
was resumed at his "Castle" early
today. Detectives found two tool
chests in one of which was ham,

GOLD AND GROVER,

The persistent demand of Grover
Cleyelend, president of the United
States, that the magnates of Wall and
Lombard streets, the great tycoons at
money eenters, are the paramount adj
visers at the court of Washington.
That the happiness and we'll doing of
seventy million of people is dependai {
on a score of multi millionaires Of
New York and as many more in LON
don. They must mould the financial
ystem OF the government to insure a
continuous flow Of wealth to them al d
theirs and, this is what Grover calls
protecting the nations credit. The
last scheme Of Growers is $50 900, 900 Il
thirty year bonds at per cent interest,
exehangeable for gold coin. That it
was arranged for and the scheme ma
tured with New York and London
bankers before sending his last mess
age 10 congress, was substantially con-
fessed in the message.
And while the two old parties daily
for political advantage and do moth.
ing, Grover natures a plan for the
safe investment of the millions of sur
plus dollars Of the New York and
London bank rs and saves the Ma
tons credit, by piling up an additional
bonded Indebtedness, of many millions.
II we mistake not the signs of the

silver men deride and ridicule this
vital issue as cranky ism" and fool
ishness, and think that interest is not
only a necessary factor, but very much
of desirable thing.
And now, just at this writing, an AS
ISOLATED press dispatch brings the start
ling intelligence that prominent sill
yer senator has in mind the outline of
plan for a bill which he may submit
to the committee and which may prove
the basis of future action. The two
principal features of the plan are;
First, to authorize the issuance of a
sufficient number of low rate bonds to
retire the S34G, 200, 900 worth of green
backs, and second, to provide for the
purchase and coinage of sufficient
quantity of silver to increase the silver
issuance to S750,0OO,OO0, which would
be an increase of about $3.50, 900
This is suggested as compromise upon
which the bond advocates and the sill
yer men can agree"
Here, again, we have the cold-blood-
ed proposition on the part of the silver
men that the greenbacks shall be
funded into interest-bearing bonds, by
the votes of bimetallists, in return for
favors shown to silver. Coupled with
this revelation comes the statement
that some of the silver senators, nota-
bly, the republican silver senators, have
taken the position that they will ac-
cept nothing short of provision for
unlimited silver coinage. They will
not insist upon free coinage at ratio
of 16 to l, but are willing to allow the
governments liberal seigniorage. They
will not agree, however, that any limit
shall be placed upon the amount to be
received on the terms agreed upon"
To an intelligent reader further
comment would be superhuous. There,
must soon be new alignment of par.
ties; one favoring monometallism and
the gold standard; one favoring BIZ
netallism and the double standard;
both of them favoring currency con-
sisting Of paper promises to pay metal
coin; these representing the two wings
of the metallic fallacy. Opposed to
these will be the peoples party, de-
handing the free coinage of both
metals at the ratio of 10 to l and the
issue of full legal tender inconvertible
paper money, direct to the people by
the government, and the establishment
of system of governmental banks of
deposit, loan and discount, to be oper-
ated at cost by and for the people.
Upon these lines must the battle final
ly be fought GEORGE c. WARD.

POINTS FOR THE PEOPLE

The Omaha platform on the money
question maintains q position which
makes it imDregnable.
In 1884 Anorew ui.o.-----..' se'd' ton
gress has the right under the constitu-
ton to issue paper money, it was given
to them (the people, to be used by
themselves, not to be delegated to in
dividuals or corporations" That is
what the populists have been claiming
right along. The government should
issue the paper money and not farm it
out to the national banks.
Talk about redeeming paper in gold!
Why, the dispatches are telling us that
New York bankers, having shipped the
full weight coins abroad, took the
light weight coins to the treasury de-
partment and demanded that the gold
be redeemed in paperl "Redeemable
money" is crazy, ignorant idea, mo-
nopolized by people who never study
the finance problem. Coming Nation.
Congress should assume at once
its own inherent sovereign right to
furnish for all the inhabitants of the
United States a uniform national cur
rency. The people and the people only
have just right to all emoluments
that may arise in any way from the is
sue of all that is allowed to circulate
as money-as all money must have the
stamp of the government on it.--Peter
Cooper.
Hold on, you hayseed fellows.
Things are coming all right. The gov
eminent under Mr.. Cleveland is trying
its best to get authority to print paper
money and let the bankers have it to
loan to you at high interest on your
farms. Don't you see? The bankers
will soon be in the swim and you hay
seeders in the soup? Confidence is be-
ing restored, you know.-Progressive
Farmer.
If the people must pay out six,
eight, ten or more per cent. for their
money the bankers ought to pay as
much for the same. But II the govern
ment prints and indorses currency for
the bankers for one-hah of one per
cent a year, it should do as much for
the farmers, manufacturers and mer-
chants, and for states, counties and
municipalities No special privileges.
