STRIKING TAlLORS WIN.
Many of the Larger Contractors Sign the
Agreement.

NEW YORK, July 31.-The contrac-
tors are coming forward in such num-
bers to accede to the demands of the
striking tailors that it appears prob
able that the strike will soon be ended.
More than 20 contractors have signed
the agreement. These are the leading
contractors of the city, and they en-
ploy from l5 to 90 workmen each. As
a result, 1000 tailors will resume work
in the morning. The settlement COM
mittee will continue to hold sessions
daily until all the contractors are ac-
commodated who desire to be.
Samuel Gompers, the national labor
leader, who was one of the speakers at
a meeting of strikers, declared that the
strike was in line with the movement
of the workingmen all over the coun-
try for shorter hours of labor. He
said: "The time has come When hours
of labor must be reduced. May |, 1896,
the organized labor movement of
America will demand the enforcement
of the S-hour law"

MENoMINEE, Mich, Aug. THE
most destructive fire this town hes
ever known commenced at $3.50 o'clock
and is still burning, although under
control. 1t started in pile of lath in
the yard of A. Spies. The fire depart
Laent was promptly on the ground, but
the lumber contiguous to the burning
lath had caught fire, and, although
many streams of water we're playing
on the piles, the flames made rapid
progress, and in something less than
an hour, the extensive lumber district
occupied by the mills of A. Spies, the
Girard Lumber company and the Bay
Shore Lumber company, was all a
sheet of flame. A brisk northerly
time it looked as if the whole length of
Main street would be swept. Besides
the excellent home department., prompt
assistance came from Marquette,
Green Bay and Oshkosh. The mills ct
the companies named will probably be
saved, which is almost in the nature
of a miracle, considering the
Huge Piles of Flaming Lumber
by which they were surrounded. Con-
servative estimates place the amount
Of lumber burned at $4,000, 600 feet,
valued at $4OO,0 900. Barns, offices and
other buildings and property destroyed
will easily swell the total loss to $780,
600. For two or three hours the in
habitants of upper Main street, near
the burning locality, were in state
bordering on panic. All the available
drays and wagons of the town were
procured to save household effects At
8 o'clock the danger of further spread
of the flames was averted.

Advance.

DENVER, July 3l-A News special
from Cheyenne, Wy, says: The In
dian scare is spreading to the south
and east of Jacksons Hole and settlers
in Fremont county are becoming
alarmed. Governor Richards has re-
,eived the following from DIR. w.
Lovejoy of South Pass, in the Miners
Delight mining district:
There is band of from 100 to 800
Indians within half days ride of this
place. They are all bucks and things
look shady here. We have plenty of
ammunition and men but need guns.
Can you send few stands of arms?"
Shortly after the receipt of the above
the following was received from Lead
stone, in the same district:
Can you send US guns? Indians are
near here?'
The governor says the Indians no
doubt are Utes from Duchesne who
are hanging around in the hope that
there will be big fight with the Ban
nocks, which will give them an oppor-
tunity to make an attack upon the set
tiers and get back to their reservations
before the troops could interfere with
them. These settlements are about 80
miles south of Lander, and the gov
ernor says he does not believe they are
in any danger unless there should be
fight in Hoback valley. He referred
the dispatches to R. d. Woodruff of
Rock Springs. inspector general of the
state militia, with instructions to use
his discretion in the matter.

United States Troops Nearing the Scene OF
Trouble.
DENVER, July 81 "A special to The
News from Cheyenne, Wy, says
private dispatch received from Market
Lake states that the Ninth cavalry is
now encamped in Teton basin near
Marysvale. The troops will not be
moved into Jackson Hole until the re-
turn Of the Indian police, who were
sent ahead to try to induce the Indians
to return to their reservations. The
reports from Marysvale show that the
excitement is dying out and many of
the settlers are returning to their
homes. The news of the near ap-
proach of the troops has caused a
bitter feeling among the settlers.
The dispatch states that the set
tiers had arranged to make an
attack on the Indian force
with the intention of driving them out
of the country, but after receiving the
message from Governor Richards ad-
vising them to act only on the defen-
sive they have changed their minds. It
is claimed it will be necessary to keep
the troops in the field all summer, as
the Indians can only be held in check
by the presence of the soldiers.

Little Tangible Evidence Discovered by
the Searchers.
CHICAGO, July 3l.-Digging in the
cellar of the Holmes building during
the day was less fruitful than any day
yet spent investigating the under
ground schemes of the Philadelphia
prisoner. Bones by the dozen were
found, but as tangible evidence against
the swindler they do not seem to count
for much.
The laborers confined their work
principally to the southeast end of the
basement, where was located the mys-
h1rious tank An investigation Of the
tank revealed nothing even as circum.
stantial evidence against Holmes. The
tank was easily made accessible and
nothing was found therein but small
quantity of petroleum in its raw state.
Removed Bodies Frorn the Castle.
Clinton Sherman, formerly living at
646 Sixty ninth street, came to Holmes
Castle and said he had been employed
by the mysterious Richardson, now
missing, to remove bodies from the
Castle and deliver them to Chappell,
the articulator at the medical college.
Sherman is a colored men. He told of
several mysterious happenings in con-
nection with the removal of bodies,
which he was told were "stiffs' pro-
cured from cemeteries and hospitals, to
be sold to medical students.
