TO STOP The DANCE.
KiOwa Indians Bound to Have
Their Medicine Dance.
Troops Asked For to Prevent
Them Having It.
IT IS DEMORALIZING.
Upsets a Whole Year of Civil
izing Work of Teachers.

WICHITA, Kan, Sept. ga te1e-
gram received here from FL Reno. Ok,
States that Captain Baldwin of the
Anadarko Indian agency had asked
the war department for troops to pre-
vent the Indian medicine dances billed
to take place at his agency the first of
next week, and that the secretary of
war has ordered the commandant at
Fort Sill to supply all the troops Cap
tain Baldwin wants. Captain Baldwin
occupies the same attitu0e towards the
proposed dance that Governor Culber-
son occupies wi reference to the Corr
be til itzslmmons fight. When the
kiowas gave out that they were going
to dance Captain Baldwin obj cited.
and the result was defiance by the
Kiowas. Capl ain Baldwin did not
think that the indians would disobey
m till within the last few days, when
hundreds of them began to conc d
trate near the agency with their paint
and feathers. lie again told them
that they could not dance. and again
the Indians insisted that they would.
This is what caused him to ask for
troops 1t is the policy of the agency to
Wipe out the savage customs of the In
ans, and espec ally the medicine,
war a nd ghost dances. It seems that all
the progress during the year among
the Indians Is lost during these
dances, and the officers claim that eff
forts at civilization are in vain long
as the Indians are allowed to revive
their savage customs annually. AN
other objection is the deplora BILE inn
morality that prevails among the
young Indians during these festivi-
ties. The dances are very dem0ral-
izing, especially among the Kinwas,
an they turn the entire years efforts
of the schools and missionaries uo-
Shutdown in a few days. Captain
Baldwin knows this and DIES not want
them 10 coat nue.. 1t is said that the
Ind ans are working up war feel
ing, but Captain Ba dwin will kbe
ready for them with plenty of troops
the scene and good reserve at
Fort Reno that can reach Anadarko in
twenly-GOur hours.

The Ex-senator Speaks on the Issues OF
the Day at Salina.


SALTNA, Kan, Sept. 2s.-Sohn J. In
gals addressed the G. A. R. reunion
here yesterday. He said he depreca ed
the idea which had been advanced
t at there should be n politics at
Grand Army reunions, but protested
against bringing questions of con-
Science and religion to the ballot box.
II have heard,' said he, ''that there
were political freaks in the asst con-
gress who would have ornamented the
walls OF dime museum. But if there
were such freaks there it was not the
fault of the freaks SO much as of the
other freaks who sent them there"
He referred to the pre- ent method
of choosing United States seua-
tors as Obsolete, Anticipated. clumsy
and unnecessary, and declared in
favor of Choosing them by direct
vote of the people, and also in favor
of abOlishlng the electoral col eye,
and electing president and vice presi-
dent in the same manner. He de-
>nOunced the present immigration
laws, which allow the convicts Of
Europe t. come into this country and
breed anarchy and discomfort, and
said before a foreigner is allowed to
EN- bark for America, he should have
credentials from a proper officer, stat
ing that he i not a criminal and is
suitable to become a citizen of the
United States. He referred to the
riots in Chicago year ago, declaring
it was the foreigners from the slums
who made'the trouble, while an officer
in federal court two blocks awav
was making United States voters. of

what they are Saying to-day, would
further believe that all this talk about
international agreements is simply
device of those opposed to bimt atsll-

for a revival of Americsnism. and said
all these questions would be settled,
not by destruction and overthrow, bus
by the exercise OF political and civil
duties by every citizen.

his agents in this city it has been
learned that Lord Scu ly, who owns
nearly 10o.O 900 acres of land in Illinois,
as much more in Missouri and still
more in Kansas and Nebraska, has
taken out naturaIizatio papers in New
York city. His object in taking this
step is to enable him to purchase more
land. The legislatures of Illinois,
Missouri and Kansas have all passed
laws prohibiting an alien from acquir-
ing real estate. His agents spent last
year and portion of The present year
in Missouri. where they bought thous-
ands of ares. but were checked BY
the adoption of measure by the leg
islature. He owns one whole county

THE PRAIRIES ATTIRE.
Flames Are Sweeping Over the
Cherokee Country.
A High Wind Carries Them
Roaring Over the Land.
FARM HOUSES BURN.
Haystacks Are Consumed and
Livestock Endangered.

K1owA, Kan, Sept. ga terrible
prairie fire is raging in the western
portion of the Cherokee strip and
sweeping everything before it in its
restless progress. A high wind is
blowing and The roar of the leap ug
flames can be heard for miles. The
SCI ne is appalling in the extreme. as
the fiery pillows whirl along devour-
ing everything in their path. The FIRE
started south OF this place and it was
hoped that when the track of the
Southern Kansas railroad was reached
it would check it's course, but the
flames leaped over the track like
whirlwind and are now tearing alpng
with nothing for loo miles TO stop
them. A mum Der of farmers houses
have been burned, besides innumera-
bic haystacks. Three hou~es near
Alva also burned with all Their con-
tents. There are a number of ranches
in the path of the fire stocked with
hundreds of cattle and the loss is
bound 10 be enormous unless the pro-
Cress of the fire can be stayed, which
now louks impossible.

A General Advance in Prices is Noted
During the Week.

A General Advance in Prices is Noted
During the Week.
NEW York. Sept. 2s.-R. G.. Dun
& Cos s Weekly Review of Trade says:
The speculation in cotton has lifted
the pr.ce Eve eighths during the
past week and quotations here are
some higher than at Liverpool. There
is still some chance of a strike IN Fall
River m lis, though the rise in prices
will make it easier for the mills to
grant some advance in wages.
1t seems no longer possible to hope
for a good crop. and Nei1 Brothers
have issued a circular predicting
yield of only 1000, 900 bales.
The wheat market has been excited.
without much discover bic reason, and
the price has advanced over cents
for spot and ~ for Deem Der dellv-
cries. 1t may be sai1 that crop pros
poets abroad are not quite as favor
able as they were a month ago,
and with a short supply at best in this
country the market Is liable to be
unusually shorl.
Holders of corn have judiciously de-
clined TO ''sympat hize" with wheat 10
a great extent and the price is prac-
tically unchanged. Pork and hog pro-
ducts are all somewhat lower. Moth
ing is clear about the iron and steel
manufacture, but Some of the largest
T ttsburg concerns, protesting o have
orders for many months ancad, are
bidding Tor small contracts in Eastern
markets at 81 and Sl.5G pee ton less
than the quoted rate. There is also
halt in the advance of leather, no
higher prices having been recorded
~ Il l.. l,0
whole snade stronger.
The advance in wool at London sales
stimulated the speculation, but prices
are on the whole unchanged and sales
have been for the mon n $685. so
pounds, of which IL, $50, $40 Were for
eign, against 31,O2l 900 for the same
weeks of 1892, of which 9,523, JOJ were
foreign. Failures for the week have
been eI6 in the United States, against
235 last year and so in Canada against
So last year.
Bradstreet's Stock Review says:
The decline in exchange rates to tig-
ures which apparently put an end to
gold shipments to L 'ndon direct has
had a favorable effect on speculative
sentiment. The unexpected engage
ment of S.,5OO.rOO gold for shipment
TO Germany by the principal
amateur" specie importer could not
overcome the impress on created by
this tendency. Canadian bankers
have taken $3.50 900 in gold for trans
fer to that country. All of tn s
was offset by the tangible weakness
that has reigned in the exchange mar
ket in consequence of the appear an e
of liberal supplies of commercial bills
and the Offering of large quantity of
bankers sixty day sterling, in connec-
ton with loans of foreign merct ans.
The formal dissolution of the Belmont
Morgan bond syndicate is also favora-
bly, rega rded. While these events
account for the assertion of an under
living tone of bullishness In specula-
ton, the market is till narrow. PUB

CROPPING IN THE DARK.
Durrant's Lawyers Have Nothing to Base
q Hope Upon.

a Hope Upon.
SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 2S.-If Theo-
dore Durrant has anything tangible
upon which to base his denial of the
charge that ne murdered Blanche La
mont AMI Minnie Williams his attor-
neys have failed to give satisfactory
evidence of the fact. After two days
devoted to the testimony of the de-
Tense the trial was adjourned until
next Tuesday. In the meantime, how
ever, the defense has disclosed enoug b
to satisfy the prosecution that Dur
rants attorneys are cropping in the
DARK in hope that something may de-
velop within the next few days to save
the prisoners life.
The apparent hopel essneSs of his
case, however, produced no change IN
the demeanor OF Durrant. Day after
day he sits in the court room beside
his father and mother and listens TO
the evidence against m without q
sign Of emotion. This stoicism of the
prisoner is only surpassed by that of
his mo her. Mrs. Durran5 seems to
have no conception of the gravity Of
her sons position. Altired in waving
plumes and a tailor-made gown sucn
as woman might wear at matinee,
she laughs ant chats with her friends
while the evidence that the prosecu-
ton believes will hang her son is be-
ing put in against him. To frequent
ers of the trial. Mr.. Durrant's con-
duct is almost as unfathomable as that
OF her son. Durra nt's father, how
ever, looks careworn and gives evil
den - of the intense mental strain
through which he must be passing.
