UTES REMOVAL.
Allegations that some Queer Bust-
ness Involves the Opening of
the Reserve.

Denver, June 18.--A special to the
Times says; The interior department
has stolen march on southwestern Colo
RADIO in the appointment of new man to
deal with the Southern Utes. For some rea-
son the department considers it necessary
to be very secretive about this matter and
while the appointment was undoubtedly
made last week the fact has only now
leaked out and 1t has been impossible SO
far to secure the name of the man ap-
pointed. There is little doubt, however,
that he is now we'll on his way to Colorado,
if not already arrived there. 1t is also
impossible to learn whether he is to CO.
operate with Col. Kidd or to supersede
him. 1t is known that the new appointment
followed Immediately upon receipt and
examination of Col. Kidd's report. This
report is also held as secret in the Office
of the secretary of the interior and very
little can be learned of its contents. It is
understood that it is in general favorable
to the removal of the Indians in accord
ance with law and it represents that in
making the change the Indians would still
hold the best part of their reservation,
contrary to former advices to depart
ment.

DANGER OF HYDROPHOBIA.
Forty Cattle ana Many Dogs Killed
and Persons Endangered.

Grand Island, Neb., June 18.-In the
northwestern part of Adams county, in
the vicinity of the farm Of Fred Ernst
hydrophobla has ca ed :: great loss oi
cattle, injury to man and much anxiety
Two men have beon bitten and compelled
to go to Wymore, where maidstone was
applied, and over forty cattle belonging
to Ernst have been shot after showing
symptoms of hydrophobia.
In January COW was bitten by mad
dog. 1t died and was not buried, being
hauled to some out f.the-way place. The
dogs in the neighborhood consumed the
carcass. About May it was noticed that
other cattle showed symptoms of hydro
phobia. Then it was that Ernst's first
bovine showed the disease and was shot.
A war was commenced on the dogs in the
district. Only one dog is left, and he will
soon join his companions. Three hogs
belonging to Ernst were bitten. One of
these has extensive tusks. A son about
"a years of age was scratched by one of
the tusks. As a consequence he had to
60 to Wymore, where the poison was ex-
tracted. A neighbor, while burying a
COW which he had shot, allowed some of
the animals saliva to touch scratch on
his hand, and he went to Wymore. He
remained there until he was thought to
be safe and then returned home. He has
since shown signs of hydrophobia and
serious consequences are feared.

Side Issue.

London, June 18.-There was large
and enthusiastic gathering at the meeting
to-day in the city temple of the British
Woman's Christian Temperance associa.
tion. Miss Florence Balgarnle accused
Miss Frances z. Willard, president of the
W. G. 7. U. of America, as being an apollo
gist for lynching in the southern part of
the United States. Miss Willard made
specific denial for herself and the union.
A resolution was carried unanimously de-
claring that the council emphatlcally be-
lieved that the American W. G. T. U.
maintained toward the lynching question
the same attitude as other christian bod
les, namely: That under no circumstances
must human life be taken without some
process of law.

TURKEY TALKS BACK.
Reply to the Powers which Demand
Humane Treatment for
Armen1ans.

Constantinople, June l8.-The Turkish
government has made a, fresh reply to
the note of the powers outlining the re-
forms insisted upon for Armenia. The
porte accepts the principle of the pro-
posed reforms, but requests that several
points he discussed before any action is
taken. The Turkish government express
es the hope that the sultan's sovereign
rights will not be preiudiced.
The impression which prevails here is
that this last reply is tantamount to re-
fusal, and II is feared the powers will
adopt more urgent measures to enforce
their demands.
Reinforcements of Russian troops have
been sent to the Turkish frontier in the
vicinity Of Armenia in order to prevent
the passage of troops and supplies Of
arms and ammunition.

RAILROAD STATISTICS.
Deeply Interesting Report OF Inter.
state Commerce Commission.

Washington, June 18.-The seventh
statistical report of the interstate com.
merce commission has just been submit.
ted.
In the introduction special attention
is called to the peculiar conditions Affect
ing the operation of railways during the
year. First the report covers the last
four months of the Columbian expo al
tion, during which time there was an in
creased passenger traffic. Second, it
covers period of widespread and un-
precedented business depression. Third,
on June 80, 1894, there were 1872 roads
operating upward of $4,000 miles of line
representing about one-fourth of the
total railway capitalization, in the hands
of receivers. The effect of this condi-
tlons is apparent IN nearly all of the
figures represented.
The total railway mileage in the
United States on June 80, 1894, was 178,-
708, an increase during the year of 2,247
miles. The increase during the previous
year was 1887. The percentage of in
crease during 1894 was less than for any
preceding year for which reports have
been made to the commission, and it is
not probable the year ending June 80,
1895, will chow much improvement The
number of roads abandoned was sixteen.
The total mileage Of all tracks was $685..
533 miles. The total number of railway
corporations on June 30, 1894, was 1924,
an increase during the year of twenty-five.
The number of roads not in operation
was seventy-seven.
