SICK SOLDIERS.
L Radical Difference of Opinion, with q
Protest from SUrgeOn-MaiOr Sea-
Inan-DIsclaimed Responsibility.

Santiago de Cuba, Oct. 3.-Surgeon
Major Seaman, of the Transport OBJ
dam, declares that there will be u
repetition of the awful horrors that
tave characterized the voyage home
of the other transports if more SICK
soldiers are sent on board the vessel
for transportation to New York. He
says that when the OLDHAM left Porto
Rico, many on board were sick, yet
the first quartermaster refused 10
furnish wine for their use, but sup
piled them with hard tack and canned
food, saying that he had no authority
to do more. Surgeon Seaman said he
would hold him responsible should
any deaths occur, and finally succeed
ed in obtaining suitable food for those
who were i'll. He asserts that the ship
has every man that he can carry and
that if she reaches New York without
any deaths occurring, she will De
lucky.
Hearing that number of other
sick soldiers were to be sent aboard
her, the surgeon-major made a protest
and stated that he was informed by
Gen. Lawton that his protest showed
lack of discipline, and that an officer
had been appointed to see how many
additional the OLDHAM could carry.
Surgeon Seaman says he will cable
TO Surgeon-General Sternberg a pro-
test disclaiming responsibility for
whatever may happen.

MINERS TAKE THE TOWN.
They Corral the Negro Miners and At
tempt to Drive Them Away-They
Defy the Police.

Washington, Ind, Oct. 2.-This city
is in a state of excitement tonight.
One hundred and fifty coal miners
from Pana, ILL.,, came here this after
noon, and met at the, Fair grounds,
with the home union miners.
At ten o'clock tonight they got to-
gether and, masked, visited all the
shacks where the colored miners
lived About so of the negroes were
corralled, and, at the point of pistols,
were run out of the town.
One negro refused to go, and the
miners fired on him. He has not been
found. The police could do nothing.
One policeman, Anderson Cannon,
went up to the mob and demanded. of
them to disperse. They answered by
covering him with 25 or 80 pistols.
The masked miners took the town.
Chief of Police Call turned in the fire
alarm, and called out the citizens TO
assist in keeping the peace.
At this hour of night the streets are
covered with people. The masked
men have hidden themselves, possibly
TO make an attack on other negro
shacks. There are about fifty ne
groes who declare they will die before
they leave town.

TENNESSEE STATE NEWS
An Interestlng peelslon.

A case which will prove of interest to
merchants generally was decided in the
circuit court at jackson last week. In
1896 James III. Price was engaged in the
hardware business in jackson and had
been buying goods of j. Ii. Falls & Co.
of Nashville. Price went to Virginia
on visit of a couple of weeks and to
recuperate his health. While absent J.
II. Falls & Co. swore out an attachment
in the chancery court against Price and
his property. Price returned and de-
Tended the attachment suit. Falls d
Co. then instituted suit in the circuit
court against Price on a note and ae-
count due by Price to them for about
$4,000. Price then instituted suit
against Falls & Co. for $10, 900 for the
wrongfully suing out of the attachment
by Falls tS Co., and thus the matter
stood at the beginning of the present
term of the circuit court. The two
cases were disposed of in rather un-
expected manner. They were compro-
missed by Falls & Co. canceling and sat
isfying their So, 900 against Price and
dismissing their suit and paying all
court costs in both suits, including the
costs in the case of Price VS.. Falls &
Co. They also pay to Price S450in cash.

yer and gold. 1t is further stated that
just before the old man died he seemed
anxious to reveal something, but had

among the ranchers of Colorado that
the recent forest fires in that state
were started by the Ute Indians with
malicious intent They said the forci-
bic election of the Indians and their
return to the reservation more than n
year ago, because of their slaughter OF
game, made them bitter against the
whites They are now playing even,
the ranchers think, and at the same
time driving some of the game into
Utah, where they can hunt without
being mOlested by game wardens- The
