The Wall street bankers have made a
formal demand on the president for the
removal of Secretary Carlisle, claiming
that he broke faith with them after the
recent bond issue by springing his cur
rency scheme, and that in consequence
the price of bonds went down and caused
the dissolution of the syndicate. The
request is a peculiarly difident one,
coming as it does from the bashful and
retiring operators of New York, but the
president intimates that he will not ask
the secretry for his resignation on that
account. Wall street goes on the prin-
ciple that "If you don't see what you
want, ask for it." Things are at pretty
pass when class OF money spectators
undertake to dictate to the government
whom its officers shall be, and to de-
mand the removal of an officer because
he does not look after their especial in
terests in conducting the affairs of the

been asserted and asseverated that they

that outside of drawing their salaries
they did nothing. They haye success
fully refuted all of these statements, for
they have made comparison of the
freight rates on the Oregon roads and
those of other roads throughout the
United States, showing that the charges
here are much higher than IN the East,
(which, by the way, everybody knew,

and giving the further information that
traffic has fallen off and that times have
been hard. What is more, they have
prepared this report tor submission to
the incoming legislature, but in order to
relieve the profound suspense that the
public are plunged in concerning their
actions, the board kindly had the gist OF
the report published in advance. II

A MAD HORSE,
Wonderful Story of an Escape In

From he Youfhs' Comma

Wonderful Story of an Escape In
Lucknow.
! From the Youths Companion.
1t is exciting when the hunted tiger
turns and charges the hunter, and he re-
allies that unless his bullet proves to be
fatal he will be a dead man. But no charge
of tiger or Of grizzly bear was ever SO ex-
citing as the rush of q mad horse upon an
English army surgeon in the streets of
Lucknow. The surgeon. Dr. Knighton, was
driving with a friend in a gig to visit
palace. To his establishment the streets
were deserted, save by two or three per-
sons. who were running as If for their lives.
Suddenly an agoniz.ng yell broke the still
mare stopped with an abruptness that al
most threw the two men into the street In
the middle Of the road was the mangled
body of a woman.
Steering the mare clear of the bloody
heap. the surgeon drove on, amazed to see
that every house appeared to be uninhab-
tied. Presently he spied a man standing
on housetop, shading his eyes with one
Pulling the mare up, the surgeon shouted
to him:
Whats the matter?"
The man eater is loose! Look out, sa-
hfbs! He's mad todayv
The surgeon had heard of a savage horse
belonging to a trooper OF the King of Dude,
and of the nickname of "Kunewallah," or
1.-The man eater, given to him because he had
killed many men. AS the surgeon hesitated
for moment, the man on the housetop
shrieked:
He is coming! He is coming! Take
care, sahibs, take carei'
Following the mars directing hand, the
surgeon saw far up. the road a large bay
horse, shaking a white bundle in his mouth.
1t was a native child the brute had seized
by its shirt. Catching sight of the gig,
the mad horse dropped the child and fu-
riousy rushed toward it.
The terrified mare was almost unmanage-
able, but she was turned about-the sur
geon never could tell how-and went tear
ing at a mad gallop down the road.
The iron hoofs of the man eater were
heard Gathering behind The surgeon looked
over his shoulder The glance showed him
far eff, there was no hope Of escaping the
attack of the furious animal. Its gates
were ordinarily closed, but a streak of light
shining between him and them suggested
that they might be ajar.
They were, md the mares head almost
touched them as he stopped. Jumping out.
the surgeon flung himself against both
gates. They swung back. Catching the
mare by the bit, he dragged the gig into
the yard. AS he slammed the gates back,
and their heavy bolt dropped into its SOCK
ct, the man eater came laundering up.
With head and cheeks covered with blood.
he glanced through the iron railing. Cooked
ears distended nostrils ard glaring eye
balls showed the ferocity Of the baff1ed
monster. The mare shivered as with cold,
though the sweat streamed of her coat.
The man eater stood for several minutes
glaring through the bars. and then began
to walk round and round the yard to fn1
an opening At last satisfied that he could
not get in, he turned. ratified his iron heels
against the bars ard with his head and
tail erect, galloped down the road.
