There will be no more Indian soldiers
attached to the standing army. Orders
have gone forth from the war department
for the disarmament, on May 81, of the last
Indian company now stationed at Fort
Sill, Okla. The military discipline has
proven too much for the Indians. They
could never be made to understand why
they had to get up at a certain hour, per-
form guard duty, learn the manual Of
arms and go to bed at the sound of a bu-
gle. Every effort to teach them that they
could not go to see their families when
they were assigned to guard duty has
proven failure and the department has
decided to give up the task. This compa-
ny was composed of Apaches captured
with the Geronimo band, and though pris-
oners of war, it was thought their duty
as soldiers would relieve them of the idea
that they were under surveillance. 1t has
been decided to employ the remainder CT
them as government scouts. A lion may
be kept in cage but his confinement
never destroys his taste for blood.

Turkish Soldiers.

Headquarters of the Turkish Army
in Macedonia, ElassCna, April Is. =
DELAYED in transmisson.)- The cor
respondent of the Associated Press has
Just returned from Karya, on the
Greek frontier, north of TyrnaYOs,
three hours ride from here. A fierce
battle between Turks and Greeks is
ROW raging at Karya. The fighting mas
been in progress all day. The cor
respondent was enabled to watch the
fighting from point near the tent or
Hamid Pasha, who is in command OF
the Sixth army corps the TURKISH
force there engaged. 1t appears that
the Greek force, which was evidently
composed of regular troops OF greece,
crossed the frontier at s o'clock yester-
day evening, and, later were engaged
by four battalions of Turkish infantry,
and after some sharp fighting were
driven back toward the frontier. The
Greek force, however, then took up a
position on the crest of several mills
and the combat was renewed at lO
o'clock this morning. The number OF
killed and wounded among the Turks
cannot be aScertained at this time, but
the correspondent saw fOrty-eight
IurKlSu WOuuU0u Drought W the ICdA,
with the bodies of five Turkish Of
ficers. The Greeks seemed to be con-
tenting themselves with occupying the
position which they had taken upon
the crest of the hills and maintaining a
heavy fire from it without advancing,
but at the same time preventing the
Turkish troops from crossing the
frontier. The Turks returned the fire
of the Greeks with persistent spirit.
While the correspondent Of the AssO-
ciated Fress was at Karya, Hamid
Pasha, the Turkish commander, re-
ceived dispatch from Edhem Pasha
saying that a general advance of the
Turkish forces had been ordered for
tomorrow, war between Greece and
Turkey having been declared. This
news was received by the Turks with
enthusiastic shouts meaning Long
live war" At the same time that
Hamid Pasha received the news of
the declaration of war he received
news of fresh attack by a Greek
force in the direction of EluthOchori,
to the north and left of Sarzos. Ed
hem PaSha at this hour is holding a
council of war and it is expected that
a great battle, will be fought to-mOr
row. The Turkish troops are eager
for general enga cement.

the case of the Rank of Minnesota the
capital was 100000 and the surplus
100000. a total of 100000. Under

All criminologists agree that indi-
rect suggestion is one of the surest
ways of melting to crime; and an emf
nent French writer has published
volume on the "Contagion of Murder"
in which he traces cases of homicidal
mania induced by pictures of assassi-
nation. The regular reader of many
modern newspapers might imagine that
the world is much worse than it used
to be. This would be a mistake. The
difference is not only that the newspa-
pers exaggerate, and sometimes invent
details of crime, but that the facilities
for collecting news are SO much bet
ter than formerly that everything is
reported. There is no part of the news
papers of the day which can be more
profitably skipped than the detailed
narratives of crime; and newspapers
which make a speciality of the evil
there is in the world should not be TAX
en- into any home.

AS instancing the antagonistic atti-
tude of Austria to all American arti-
cles. Consul-General Max Judd, at vi
emma, calls the attention of the State
Department to an intended tariff meas
ure preventing further importation OF
glucose into Austria-Hungary. All
producers of glucose in Austria have
formed trust. The market price Of
syrup has been made by them II forms
($8.44 per 100 Kilograms (220.46
pounds). This price has enabled Am
erican producers to sell their syrup,
which is even better in quality, at
lower figure. The trust, seeing them
selves undersold, have now urged the
government to assist them, and have
succeeded in the effort. The duty on
glucose or syrup has been six f1orins
in gold $500 on 100 Kilograms (220.46
pounds). A new tariff, to go into effect
January 1, has now been published,
making the duty Is forms in gold
(S7.23). This rate" says the consul
general, lis on glucose from all coun-
tries, but it is aimed only against the
Ou1ISu OldlSS, 1O1 II 10 O1lAy with 0y1 up
from our country that the syrup trust
(home producers) cannot compete.
American syrup is sold, landed in Ham
burg. per 100 Kilograms at 1880 marks
($2.971s). The import duty for Aus
tria being also six forms in gold
(S2.99) and freight from Hamburg to
Austria amounting to about one form,
makes the entire cost of 100 Kilograms
of American syrup landed in Austria
about Sc. 40 against the trust price of
syrup of 81 forms ($S.4D. This new
duty will at once shut us out from
further sale of syrup. 1t has been this
way with other articles for which
Americans found a foreign market. If
it was not tariff measure, some other
obstacles have crippled their efforts to
maintain the trade.

A favorite place for osculatory ex-
ploits with the Topeka bellies and
heaux is on top of the dome of the
State House. On this airy summit, $50
feet above the earth, it is the delight
of the amorous swain to take his
sweetheart and far away from the
madding crowds ignoble strife kiss her
to his hearts content, with none to mo-
lest or make him afraid. The ribald
small boy and the derisive young man,
although armed with powerful field
glasses, are as if they were not.
