A Relic OF the Indian War.

An old rusty revolver may be seen
in the TELLER office, which brings to
mind an episode of the Nez Perces war.
Even the next year after Josepl's
capture 1t was not difficult to arouse
the war feeling, especially among the
tenderfeet. The visitors to Lewiston
often took great interest in the stories
of the war and it was not uncommon
to live over again some of the vivid
scenes of 1877, even year or two later.
On one occasion drummer visited
Lewiston, who became highly wrought
up by the tales of warfare. He was 50
brave hy natural instinct that he
burned inwardly for an opportunity t"
make himself famous 10y battle with
blood thirsty Indians. Chas. kress,
who would not perpetuate practical
joke on anybody but Il drummer heard
the man boast. He started Il quiet
rumOr of u threatened Indian attack
and enrolled the brave drummer for
the defense Of the women and children
Of the city. The preparation was con-
Quoted with impressive silence under
cover of darkness to avoid needless
alarm. The drummer was armed with
the big revolver that may he seen in
the TELLER Office, together with other
implements sufficient to supply an
arsenal. The drummer, on account of
his hoasted prowess was given the
most most important position in All
an old rifle pit on the brow of The
Hill to wait in suspense for the prob
able attack. Only few men were ST.
lected, but they were reported to the
drummer to he the most tried and true
IN the city.
1t was of course arranged SO that the
drummer's guns would not kill. The
loads were blanks. The big revolver
now in evidence was apparently
loaded, but each charge was incon'-
pete.
After the drummer was stationed
and had some time to imbiie the
terror of silent suspense and darkness,
make believe Indian, supposed to be
Chas. Kress, came across the sage
brush expanse straight to the drum
mer's rifle pit. The knight of the
Road was not rs brave before an IN
dian rs he was by the fireside. lie
fled to the city to give the alarm. he
left his guns behind, and the h'g res
volver was never found, till all these
years had passed. 1t is at hand now
to revive the episode of that brave
drummer, who was SO willing "a
place his corporal self between danger
and the helpless citizens of Lewist III.

IT IS CHEERLESS
Dark Clouds Hang. Over
the Market.
Anticipation of Another Bad
Bank Statement.
Today's Stock Market Opened Weak
Foreigners Selling.

Good cheer has forsaken the market
and the optimists are having hard
time OF 1t to think differently.
The stringency OF the money market
in the West IS becoming more acute
every Gay and there is no relief from
New York. Those who were cheerful
yesterday and talked about large esti-
mates OF gold imports during the next
60 days haven't anything to say today
except that perhaps they were too quick
in jumping at conclusions.
Aside from cotton which is kept up in
price because of damage to the stock tho
products are selling at starvation rates.
Corn is down to % cents bushei at
Chicago and at 81 cents in ST. Louis
And when 1t is considered that ,00O,-
600, COO bushel crop Is expected and that
the demand is lower tnan ever because OF
the large displacement Of horses 1t is only
reasonable to suppose that there VIII be
still further depression.
The iron trade, that pulse OF the coun-
try's prosperity. is fiat and mills are
running only at rare intervals and lead
is selling at the lowest figures on record.
There is very little interest In London
today In American stocks and bonds,
and the foreigners are among the seilera.
The same bear interest which has sue
ceeded in hammering Manhatten Elevated
Railway stock from 30 down to 73 has
commenced an attack on Western Union
and st. Paul.
Railroad reports are generally unsatis-
factory and another bad bank statement
from New York is expected tomorrow.
The New York Heraid's statement that
Hill will support Bryan shouldn't make
much difference in the market, but the
bears have seized it as an additional excuse
for their activity.

against the Grangers and Louisville d

Uneasiness as to the monetary situa-

tributary influences TO the reaction.
