INDIANS ARE IMPROVING.
Commissioner Browning Reports on Their
Progress in Education and Handi-
rrnffc

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 1.-Com-
missioner of Indian Affairs Browning has
submitted his annual report. He says
that with no outbreaks during the year
the education and civilizing of the Indians
has progressed and the main effort now is
and for years must be to get the Indian
on his allotment so as to become self-sup-
porting. The Indians are becoming adopts
in handicrafts and received last year in
pay from the Government over $500, COO
for work done.
The Commissioner reviews the steps
taken by Congress to extinguish the
claim of the Ogden Land Company TO the
lands of the Senecas in New York State.
The question OF the fishery rights of the
Yakima Indians in the extreme north
west is still troublesome, because of the
lnfringements of the whites upon Indian
rights, which have not been successfully
protected.
Education has progressed rapidly in the
Government and Industrial Training
schools. There were enrolled in all
schools 1882 pupils. The Commissioner
praises the work of the field matrons. He
suggests that the Commissioner appointed
to treat with several tribes of Indians for
their lands be continued to clear up the
work of making sale of their lands.
Nearly all applications for Indians for ex-
hibition purposes have been refused. The
commissioner lays stress upon the need
of legislation restraining the sale of liquor
on Indian reservations.

EARLSTON'S FINAL FLIGHT
The Aeronaut Leaves Oakland and His
Young Wife Behind.

OAKLAND, CAL, Oct. 1t was re-
ported tonight that Robert Earlston,
"the greatest aeronaut west OF Chicago"
has taken flight and left his wife be-
hind. Mrs. Earlston was left at her lodg-
ing house. at Eighth and Washington
streets, last Sunday night, and as her hus-
band did not return she went to her
mothers on Tuesday night, and she has
told her friends she fears the worst.
Miss Maud Smith about three months
ago fell in love with the athletic young
aeronaur who made ascensions in the pub
lie parks every Sunday, and without much
preliminary they were married. For a
few weeks after the marriage Mrs. Earl
ston used to faint in the park while the
husband did the trapeze act mile above
the earth. Recently the aeronaut,s love
cooled off and few days ago he left his
lodging house and his wife.
His name has been coupled with the
double elopement from West Oakland last
Monday night, as Earlston and Frank
Raymond, who is known 10 be one of the
elopers. were at the aeroDaut's lodging
house with two strange girls.

SPOKE FOR FREE SILVER
Advocates of the White Metal
Rally at a Mass
Meeting.
A. C. Ellis and M A. Hurley Were
the Principal Speakers of
the Evening.

a silver mass-meeting was held in
Metropolitan Temple last night. The
Hon. A. G. Ellis and the Hon. NJ. A.
Hurry were the chief speakers.
G. d. Lane, who presided, seized the op,
portunity OF denying that he had ever
forced his employees to contribute to the
cam paign fund. 1.-THE statement was not
true" he said. II have between 800 and
700 men in my employ, and what l did
say to them was: Boys, would like to
raise little money to get up some cam
paign literature. l should like you to give
days work each to raise the fund. l
don't demand it, but / ask you to do it."
Mr.. Lane added that he had promised
his employees that whatever they gave the
Utica mine would give more, but he de.
MED having coerced them into giving.
Colonel A. z. Ellis of Salt Lake City
said he believed the silver question to be
the greatest issue that had confronted the
American people in the whole history OF
it's existence.
He thought the silver Republicans and
Populists would unite with the Democrats
in settling 1t. You know that for twenty
years you have been suffering under hard
times and falling prices. This is traceable
to the supremacy of gold."
Mr.. Ellis combated the belief th at there
could be overproduction of commodities.
"How can there be oyerproduction of
cereals when there are thousands of our
ellow-countrymen starving? Flow can
there be overproduction of fabrics, when
many people have not clothes to wearT'
Speaking of himself, he said he did not
represent any silver mining interests, but
added that if he did, be had perfect
right to do so.
Mr.. Hurley began his remarks with a
panegyric OF the PopuIists, who, he said,
constituted the buik OF the voting popula-
tation of this untry. He gave history
of the demonelization of silver in this
country, and pleaded for that metal being

ANXJETY IN ENGLAND.

IiticaI Cat VIII jump

LONDON, Eng, Oct. 1.-The Times
and Echo continues to comment upon the
American political campaign. 1t says:
We would think Bryan's chances were
diminishing in America but for the evil
dent strain on the imaginations of the
people on the other side. We are still of
the same opinion as we have been all
along, but the Democrats are not quite as
soundly beaten as the people whose ex-
istence depends on their defeat make out
The financial outlook is somewhat modi-
flying itself. There is no real improve
ment, however, in trade or in Wall street,
but the conspirators who have been bleed
ing the market are a little afraid they have
overdone it. and prices have been tempt
ingly put up.
1t is entirely professional booming. for
the stock-buyIng public is wisely standing
aloof both here and IN America. But the
American stocks will bear watching.
Meanwhile there Is an ominous ebb in
the expansion of trade. The August re-
port OF the Government Board of Trade
shows decrease in the imports as COM
pared with the same month of 1895 of
nearly $11,O00000, and in the exports of
nearly $1,O00000. 1t may be taken for
granted that the terrible decline in Ameri-
can trade and the uncertainty of Ameri-
can politics is mainly responsible for these
cOnd itiOnS.

RICHMOND is HAMPEREO
A Blind Sewer Causes Complaint
Among the Residents of
the South Side.
The Old Bay District Racetrack to
Be Cut Up Into Building Lots
and So at Auction.

The residents of the Richmond District
are complaining because of the sudden
clog that has been put on the wheel of
improvements.
The population of that district has be-
come sufficiently large to warrant the
building of schoolhouse, and such a
building has lately been erected on Sixth
avenue, between B and c streets.
There are thirty-six pupils in attend
ance. But no sooner had the schoolhouse
been erected than did the inhabitants
begin to regret their choice of the city.
This regret is brought about by the OPP
position OF the directors of the French
Hospital who own the eastern side of the
entire block between Point Lobos avenue
and A street. and the heirs of the estate
of Hamilton of the firm of Baker & Ham
ilton, who own a large portion of prop
ertv on the west side of the same street
and directly opposite the French Hospit tai.
Both of those parties have opposed the
putting in OF sewer from street to
Point Lobos avenue, which would con-
meet with the sewer already in Sixth
avenue from Fulton to A street
AS it is now the sewer on Sixth avenue
is completely shut up at the intersection
OF A and Sixth avenue, directly in front of
the hospital, and this is what the people
there complain of.
To such an extent have they been
worked up over the affair that petition
will be presented to the Board of Educa-
tion to have the schoolhouse removed TO
distance from this pest t-breeding locality,
as it is claimed that sewer having no
outlet will in short time become nest
of disease not only for the children, but
for the patients in the hospital.
The expense to the directors of the hos
pital for having the sewer run into the
Point Lobos main brick sewer would
amount TO $3.50, and to the Hamilton es-
tate $160. The other property-owners are
willing that the improvement should go
ahead, but inasmuch as the hospital and
the Hamilton heirs own one-haIf of the
frontage, the Supervisors cannot order the
work done, as it requires a majority of
property-owners.
There are some however, who claim that
the Board of Health has jurisdiction in
the premises from a sanitary standpoint.
The Bay District Land Company is the
name of new association which has Just
sprung into existence since the transform
alton OF the Bay District racecourse as
sumed shape.
This company has in view the putting
in of large brick sewer from First to
Fifth avenues on street, which runs
directly east and west across the race
course, after which the entire track will
be surveyed into building lots and offered
for sale at public auction.
But the B-street sewer must have an
outlet or there will be trouble in Rich
mond between the residents and the
French colony.

NEW YORK, N. Y, Oct. /. = The
friends of P. J. lyman are positive they
can prove he went to Europe on legitimate
business. J. Brandon lyman, his son, to-
day exhibited number of affidavits made
by residents of Kingston. Ireland, which
go to prove the joint claim of his father
and grandmother to the $4,000 estate of
her son, Catholic clergy man, who died
in Chile year ago. 1t was to obtain this
proof that Brandon lyman and his sister
Katharine were sent to Ireland by their
father. They ran short of money, and
lyman, his son says, borrowed money
here and went to France to meet them.
He could not go to Ireland himself, there
being price on his head.
