BANNOCKS SHOT LIKE DOCS,
Rye" Smiths Bloody Revenge for the Murder of His fatherfederaI Troops
 in Readiness.

Chicago. Aug. 25.-A special from Burns, Ore, says: courier from Dia- mond valley reports the killing of if teen Rannocks by cattle men under the leadership of Rye" Smith. Smiths reason was revenge for the murder of his father in 1878 in Diamond valley. There is great excitement in the town and through the country.
 Troup A is in readiness to march on short notice. and is awaiting orders from the county sheriff for authority to act
 While particulars of the affair are dini- cult to obtain it is learned that the mat ter has no bearing on the JackSon's Hole troubel. Ever since Smiths father was killed, in 1878, by warriors of the Ban mock tribe, he has been "on their trail' and not d few have met death at his hands.
 It seems a party of Indians were on their summer hunt near Diamond valley and killed a number of cattle belonging to the stock men, whose herds range in that vicinity. A party of cattle men was organized to punish the marauders and Smith readily undertook to lead them.
 The pursuerS located the Indians about an hour before sundown, at their camp, near the western edge of the valley. and without warning opened fire upon them. The Indian bucks were thrown into a panic and fled for the hills, the squaws following suit. The stock men pursued them and fired a volley at the fugitives, dropping several of them. including one or two squaws. The pursuit was not con tinued, the cattle men believing sufficient punishment had been inflicted. The courier reports fifteen dead Indians were found after this one-Sided battle.

the American veterans will be the guests of the Berlin Central Veteranen-Bund.
 Amid the general repose of European politics, due to the wholesale diplomatic vacation, the disturbing feature of events is the return of Prince Ferdinand to So- fla. Emperor William recently sent an agent to Sofia to report to him in regard to the connection of the Stoiloff govern ment with the murder of ex-Premier Stambuloff. This official has reported that there is no possible chance of trac- ing the murderers while the Coburg-Stoil- off regime is in existence
 The legal court at Sofia, the agent says, has refused to hear any charges connect ing Prince Ferdinand with the murder of Stambuloff, although the council. pre- senting the charges offered to call wit nesses who would swear that the Cobur- ger CFerdinand) induced them to murder Stambuloff, the princess protector. Throwing off the last vestige of deceney, Prince Ferdinand is now supporting the municipal authorities of Sofia in the ac- tion in ordering Stambuloff's widow to deliver to the police ground plan of the house and plan of the grounds of the es- tate left by her husband.
 The heat has been almost beyond en- durance throughout the week. Twenty soldiers were prostrated with SunStroke during a march from Zoszen to Potadam on Thursday and three persons died from the effects of the heat in the streets of Berlin.

He expressed him self as having been perfectly contented in his retirement al Skal, where he was in daily companionship with two old com rades, who, like himself, had definitely resigned from the game of politics.

NOW, HOW DOES HE KNOW 2 Bluefelds Editor Anticipates the Canal Commissions Report. SAYS IT WILL BE FAVORABLE A Slight Change in the Proposed Route Will Be
 Recommended. CAN BE COMPLETED IN SEVEN YEARS The Total Cost Will Considerably Exceed the Limit Set by the Projectors.
 Former Management Will
 Be Criticised.
CAN BE COMPLETED IN SEVEN YEARS

Washington, Aug. 25.--The latest mail from Central America brought files of the Bluefields (Nicaragua) Recorder, in one issue of which, that of July 27, ap- peared the following article purporting to give the recommendations of the United States commission which recently inspected the canal:
 We are in receipt of United States advices to the effect that favorable report on the Nicaraguan canal will be made by the United States government commission which lately examined the proposed canal route and the terminal hafbors on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts.
 "The report, which will very shortly be published, will be of an exhaustive character, and will deal with all the as- poets of the colossal enterprise. The commission will state their unanimous conclusions that Colorado bar, which mas caused so much trouble at the entrance to Greytown harbor, can be permanently removed by dredging, and that per manent opening through 1t can be nam tained by building a piling to the south ward of the harbor, so as to break the ocean current, which washes up the sand on the bar.
 "A slight change in the route or the proposed canal will be recommended, owing to the belief on the part of the commissioners that several serious oo- stacles exist on the route as heretofore laid down.
 "The commissioners think that the work of constructing the canal can De completed in six or seven years, but that the total cost will considerably exceed the limit set by the projectors and that SIG, ,0O00 900 will not be an excessive tg- ure They will ventilate their opinion of the former management of. the canal enterprise and will present number of severe criticisms in this connection.
 ',Snce the above was in type we have had communication by private letter from Greytown, in which it Is stated that advices have been received there to the effect that the report of the commission- CTS is not satisfactory for that locality, as was at first anticipated. It appears that the commissioners, after reaching the "divide," decided not to go any fur ther and returned to Greytown. There Colonel Ludlow, chairman of the commits sion, expressed himself very openly on the question of the Atlantic terminus, which, he said, should be, in the event of any decision being arrived at, the Col orado bar instead of Greytown."

crack ship of the British navy, at drill, when every preparation had been made for it, required thirty-three minutes for it's performance.
 Another thing which elicited expres- sions of praise and astonishment from the official visitors to the Columbia at Kiel was the condition and appearance of the vessel so soon after it's trial trip. Ev- erything was found to be ship-shape, greatly to their surprise. After the Blake had undergone her trial trip, 1t was said, months were required to put her in condition, the machinery having been racked so in that ordeal, and it was difficult for the visitors to the Columbia to understand how the American ship had so speedily been put in condition.
 The report further stated that the ma chinery in the Blake was to be torn out, and that she was to be practically re- constructed, although still one of the new vessels of the British navy.

SUGAR EXPERIMENTS END.
All the Government Plants Have Been
 Closed and Sold.

Washington, Aug. 25.-Secretary Nor ton has closed every sugar experimental station in the United States, twenty in number, and sold their property for what he could get. Ten of these stations were in Kansas. One plant, which cost the government $200,0 ,000, realized only $3000. The rest of the stations, scattered through Nebraska, California and Louis jana, brought proportionate sums. Sec retary Morton says that these plants. which have altogether cost the govern ment $500,00 were being used solely to try experiments. The secretary says that the sugar makers must experiment for themselves.
 Costly machinery which the govern- ment bought and paid for has been taken possession of by private parties on whose, sugar making establishments the sta- tions were located, and Secretary Nor ton threatens to bring suit, if necessary, to recover the government property.

THR0NGED TO SEE HIM.
The Reception Given to Cardinal Gibbons by the Catholic Club Was a Mem
 orabIe Event.

Baltimore, Aug. 25.-The reception given to Cardinal Gibbons tonight by the Catholic club was an event long to be remembered by those who were fortunate enough to gain an entrance to the rooms of the club.
 Long before s o'clock the hour set for the arrival of the guests, thousands of persons had gathered on Charles street, in front of the archiepiscopal residence and the club house directly opposite, in the hope of personally conveying to the prince of the church their congratula- tions upon his safe return after an ab- sence in Europe of nearly four months to his home and among his beloved peo- ple..
 Promptly at o'colck the cardinal, leaning upon the arm of James R. Wheeler, president of the Catholic club, emerged from his residence and picked his way through the immense throng to the club house. closely followed by Arch bishop Satolli, Mgr. Berretti, Bishops Foley of Detroit, Mich, and Donahue of Wheeling, w. Va, and the clergy of Bal tlmore, led by the venerable Monsignor. McColgan.
 The hall of the club house wherein the reception was held was handsomely dec orated with flowers, ferns and plants. The cardinals red chair was overhIng with ferns and festooned with flowers resembling fairy grotto. As the pro- cession entered the hall the cathedral choir, under direction of Prof. F. X. Hale, sang Viva II Cardinale," a march cho- rus
 When the cardinal was seated, with Mgr. Satolli and Bishop Foley on either side, Assistant District Attorney Ed gar H. Cans welcomed him on behalf of the Catholic club and the citizens in few well-chosen words. His eminence responded briefly, thanking the commit tee, the club and the assembled hosts for the unmistakable warmth of their greeting.
 Professor Linhard's orchestra, con- cealed by floral screen, played a number of sacred airs, while the fortunate ones who had been able to squeeze in the apartment were formed into line and said q few pleasant words to his sminence as they filed from the hall to make room for the waiting thousands on the out side The reception was continued for more than two hours, when the cardinal was compelled to excuse himself and was again escorted across the crowded street to his residence.
 The cardinal objects to public demon- stratons on Sunday, but owing to the fact that the annual retreat of Catholic clergy of the arch dioceses will begin to- morrow the officers of the club prevailed upon him to allow his flock to see him and say Q word of greeting before se- cluding himself for a week in St. Mary's seminary, where the retreat will be held

Dodge, formerly editor and proprietor of the San Miguel Courier 27 years old, having met with business reveYses and i'll health, attempted suicide with his mother yesterday at their home at San Rafael.
