Strang1ed to Death.

DENVER, Oct, mamie Voight,
alias Wright, fortune teller was
found strangled to death in her room
at 202O Champa street this morning.
Her murderer had taken a towel and
winding it around her neck tied it in a
tight knot at the back of her head.
The woman's features were horribly
distorted. The police has as yet dis
covered no trace of the murderer. The
woman was a well known character
on the streets. She had red hair and
though forty, wore colors and clothes
usually effected by q girl of Is. Her
case is similar to the strangulation OF
two French woman three years ago,
the perpetrator of which crimes has
never been captured

BAD NEWS
Germany Gets the Worst OF 1t Again.

Oefmdny OetS tne MOIST vi IL again.
NEW YORK, Oct. An advance in
the price of beer before long Is not i'm.
probable as result of the scarcity and
poor quality of this year hop crop. Re-
ports received from all the hop-growing
states of the Union and from the hop
growing centers of Europe indicates
that the crop this year is unusually
light aud in many places not up to the
standard in quality. The foreign crop is
especially poor and it follows two
years of light crops. The production
in the United States this year is es-
timated at from 10000, to POO, 900
bales. There has already been q sharp
advance in the price of hops and a fur
ther rise is expected to result from the
report of the Washington hop crop
which this season amounts to between
27, 900 and 10000 bales, whereas in pre-
vious years the crop of
this state and California
have each amounted to about
35 900 bales. New York and Oregon,
which each produce annually in the
neigh borhood of $4,000 bales, are also
short this year, and it is predicted that
the price of choice stock will n
reach p cents pound.

THE WAR OVER
The Indians Have Displayed White
Flags And it Is Believed Are
Ready to Surrender.

MINNEAPoLIS, Mimi, Oct. IA
special from Walker received at I q.
10 says that a dispatch boat is expected
from Bear Island at any moment with
the news of yesterdays battle. De-
sultory firing has been going on all
night. The Indians are believed to
have gone further inland.
MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, Oct. Moth
thing has been heard from Cass Lake
since 30 this morning, when a re-
port was received stating that war
whooping was continuing. 1t was
learned that the Indians were plotting
to wreck the train due at Cass Lake at
D a. M, but whether they have carried
out their design or not cannot be learn
ed at this hour. Governor Clough has
received no word from Washington in
answer to his appeals for authority to
send several hundred of the furloughed
volunteers to Cass Lake. The citizens
OF Jarvis also fearing an attack have
asked the governor for troops and
guns.
MINNEAPoLIS, Oct. Nothing
stsrtlingly new comes from the
Indian uprising this morning. Colonel
Harbach with a detachment of 215
m en- has landed on Bear Island, q gat-
ling gun, and 10000 rounds of amuni-
tion accompanied one squad of his men.
A slaughter of every Indian on the
island is predicted unless the tribe
surrenders or retreats beyond the
reach of troops now in the
field. The war department today
issued orders for three more compa-
nies at ST. Paul to prepare for service.
The calling out of battalion of Min
nessota volunteers was also authorized.
The watchers around Walker last
night report this morning signal
lights flashing back and forth on
opposite sides of the lake last
night and are fearful that large bodies
Of Indians from other reservations
reached the Pillagers camp during the
night. The tug Flora left Walker at
o'clock this morning to bring Gener-
al Bacon and his men, and pending
their return there will probably be
nothing done.
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi. Oct "A
dispatch from Walker late this after
noon states that the Indians at Leecb
Lake put up white flags at various
points along the lake and it is believed
they have prepared to surrender. 1t
looks now as if the trouble is at an end.

France Compelled to Back Down.

LONDON, Oct. "A long message of
instructions has been telephoned by
the foreign office to Sir Edmund Mon
son, the British ambassador at Paris,
and there is not doubt
that the relations between France
aud England are greatly strained.
Lord Salisbury declines to
regard Major Marchand's occupation

minister, though yielding gradually to
the British contention, desires to evade
any appearance of a surrender on the

A Gallant Officer.

Major Wilkinson, who was killed
on Bear island. day before yesterday,
served in the volunteer army during
the civil war, with distinction.
AT the breaking out of the war he was
commissioned first lieutenant in the
23rd New York infantry, which posi-
tion he resigned in November 1861. In
1862 he was commissioned first lieut.
enant of the 10th New York infantry,
was promoted to captain in the same
year, resigning early in 1868. He
accepted the position OF first lieuten-
ant of the Veteran Reserve Corps in
August 1868, was promoted to captain
in December, and mustered out in
June. 1866. He was appointed End
lieutenant on the And regular u.
S. infantry in July 1866, breveted
End of March, 1867, for gallant and
meritOrious services in the battle of
Antietam, Maryland. and at the same
date to the rank of captain, for gal
liant and meritorious services during
the war. He was transferred to the
9Th infantry in April 1869, assigned to
the Bird Infantry in 1870, promoted to
first lieutenant in 1871 and to captain
in 1876. He was breveted major in
against the Indians at the Clear
Water. Idaho, fight on July 11th and
9th 1877. and at Kamiak, Idaho, July
18th 1877. He was promoted to
major during the present year.
By the above record it will be seen
that Major Wilkinson was not only q
gallant soldier but an old Indian
fighter. It is only to be wondered at
that he exposed himself as he did in
the Bear Island fight. He leaves fam
lily at. Redland's California. where he
has in growth q fine orange grove to
which he hoped to retire in q few more
years. Major Wilkinson was over
sixty years of age.

They Missed Him.

When the 7. P. excursion train
reached Van Horn last night at about
9 O'Clock, some of the excursionists re-
ported to the conductor that friend of
theirs by the name OF Barrett was
missing from the train. The excursion
train was too heavy to back up on a
hunting tour so a freight train search
ed the track as far as AllamOre and at
this point the section crew took up the
search and continued it until they were
overtaken by the passenger which
reached here this morning at 1905.
Conductor Bacon, in charge OF this
train, had orders to keep lookout for
the man along the line, and did as he
was requested, but nothing was seen of
the missing man.
The missing man WAS said to be from
Ell Psso and the reporter started out to
ascertain some facts in the case. He
found one man by that name who had
been discharged yesterday morning for
being intoxicated, and it has been hint
ed that possibly this man went down
the road for ways, jumped off and
came back and that his friends did not
miss him until they reached Van Horn
That the man was not killed along
the track is certain as no traces OF
blood are to be found. So it is alto
gether possible that the man went
down the road piece and returned on
8 freight train.

FAST RINNI\C.

Whether the horrible accident at CO.
hoes, n. Y, reported in yesterdays dis
patches was due TO the fault of the men
operating the steam cars or those operat-
ing the trolley cars, we do not yet know.
But it is a certain fact that there are
TOO many accidents of that kind. Every
city has its ordinances regulating speed
at crossings, though too often they are
allowed to become dead letters on the
statute books.
In Richmond the trolley cars of both
lines are often run at frightfully high
rates of speed IT is wonderful that there
has been so little loss of life here but
who knows when the record may be
broken-when a carload of people may
be killed. Then, in addition TO inficting
great grief upon many families the COM
pany may have to pay a fortune in dam
ages. In such case, all the saving made
by reducing the number Of cars will be
dissipated in moment
Sometimes we think it cannot be pos
sible that our police authorities realize
the danger TO the public from the fast
running of which we speak. or. if they
realize the danger, they must think it is
10 business Of theirs to interfere.

SOLDIERS AND SUBSTITUTES

Many letters are coming to Virginia
from members OF the Fourth Regiment
expressing the wish that they may be
permitted TO return home and resume
their business vocations. On this sub
ject, as is quite natural, the men speak
much more freely to their homefolks
than to their officers.
Would that such soldiers OF the Fourth
as wish TO come back home might I'll
their places with members Of the Second
or Third regiments who wish to so TO
Cuba! Then all would be satisfied, and
the service would be in TO wise impaired.
What red tapsm may be in the way Of
substitutes we know not; but If there is
any it seems to us it ought to be re-
moved. 1t would be better for the army
of occupation TO be filled with men who
are burning for the privilege of seeing
service in Cuba rather than with men,
not a few or whom are pining to get back
home now that there is no prospect of
fighting to do.
We earnestly trust that the officers Of
the Fourth will try TO arrange the matter.
The difficulties that now appear in the
way will probably disappear if a deter
mined effort be made TO overcome them.
