CONFLICTING INTERESTS.
A Deal Concealed in a Suit for Fore.
closure.

FORT WORTH. Texas. Jan. 1.-Colonel
Dodge Of New York. Receiver Trumbull
of the Denver and Gulf and Receiver
NJ. Jones of the Fort Worth and Denver
City returned yesterday On a special car
from New Mexico. They were accompa-
MED on their journey by Judge Green of
the Sixth Judicial Distric, of this city.
The presence Of the gentlemen in Fort
Worth at this time, coupled with tbs re-
cent suit brought by the Mercantile Trust
Company against the Fort Worth and Dem
yer Railroad praying for foreclosure OF
its mortgage and asking for the appoint
ment of a receiver. has created a great
deal of talk in railroad circles all over the
Western country.
1t Is understood that there was consld-
erably more in the suit of the Mercantile
Company than the face Of that document
represented, and that there was an effort
by the Gould Interests on one side and the
Union Pacific Railroad on the other to OBJ
tain control of the Fort Worth and Denver
City Railroad. The demand made in the
suit of the Mercantile Company that re-
ceiver be appointed for the property was
looked upon as direct attack upon tae
present receivers, and although denials
of this were made alter the suit was filed
rumors Of conflicting interests ontinue to
circulate. 1t was also rumored that there
would be q change In the present receiy-
ers. and that If this was done it would, Of
course. somewhat affect the management
Of the entire system from here to the
Texas line.

WILD WEST INDIANS.
Sixteen of Them Stranded in ST.
Louis.
Uncle Sam May Take Them Off Buck
1aylor'S Hands and Send
Them Home.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 1.-SiXteen Indians
now in St. Louis are on the verge of desti-
tuition and unless the paternal hand of
Uncle Sam is stretched out to them they
are likely to find themselves in even worse
straits. Included in the number are two
squaws and one girl years of age. They
are in a large room at the Natatcrum
building at Pine and Nineteenth streets.
These Indians formed part of a troupe in
charge of Buck" Taylor which has been
giving exhibitions in various parts of the
country. Some time ago the troupe was
broken up and those who were managing
it became involved In a lawsuit. Since
then the Indians have been waiting pa
tiently for something to turn up. spending
their time attending various courts as wit
nesses In the suits between their former
employers and exhibiting themselves in
dime museums.
There are three or four white men with
the Indians and one OF them, William
Mattox, said that the Indians had come
from the Rosebud Agency of the Sioux
tribe in North Dakota. They were taken
from the reservation by Buck" Taylor,
who has been engaged in the business of
exhibiting Indians and wild WesH
scenes for several years. As is customary,
Taylor was compelled to execute gilt
edged bond for the proper care of the In.
dams and for their safe return to the
reservation.
Matsox said that the Indians have been
been away from the agency four or five
months travelling with the troupe. Lately
the management, he said, had fallen into
hard lines and there was a scarcity of
funds, accompanied by an uncertainty as
to future movements.
So far there had been no real suffering,
friends Of the Indians having provided
them with food. The neighbors have
taken hand in it. Professor w. Clark.
the owner of the room in which the In.
dams are CHARTERED. reported the case to
the Humane Society and the police were
notified. The matter was the subject of
investigation during the day. 1t is likely
that the Govern ment will take charge and
provide for the return of the Indians TO
the Rosebud Agency.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-Trinity's chimes

joy Of two or three thousand people. The
remainder Of the crowd of $4,000 people

Church it is safe to say that not ten per
cent saw the steeple or heard the chimes.
But they were just as happy. They knew
the chimes were ringing Csble-cars
crawled up and down the crowded street
like snails. Gripmen rang their gongs In
time with Bellman Meislahn's melodies.
When midnight came the police relaxed
their vigilance for moment and yell of
welcome OF 1895 We'd with the blare of
thousands of horns.
The tenderloin district sent down hun
dreds of young men with high hats and
pipes and young women with silk and lace
skirts and big sleeves. Some of these rode
In cabs and some in buses and queer
carry-alls.
From the east side came big trucks. with
chairs filed with men and women who
yelled and giegled and leaned over the
sides for all the world like a straw -ride
in the country. Inspector McAvoy had
over 100 policemen from the steamboat and
Broadway and City Hall squads to silence
