 The mail carrier coming from Springdale yesterday lost the letter pouch somewhere be. tween White River and Spring Valley. The pouch was fas- tened to the back part Of the buggy with a rope run through each end and tied at tue sides of the buggy It is not prob able that the loops were brok en by the weight of the pouch, and as the rope was neither broken nor loosened at either end one theory is that someone came up behind the buggy, cut the loops and took the pouch. This could have been done very easily with out the carriers attention being attract ed The pouch was not missed until the carrier arrived at Spring Valley. He went back 10 where be remembered seeing II last but did not find it.

A New York journal has interviewed

A New York journal has interviewed
members of congress on the current re-
port that an effort would be made at
the approaching session to repeal or to
amend what is known as the Sherman
antitrust law. The replies, as far as
received, indicate no intention upon
the part of the lawmakers to repeal
the Sherman law or to offer any
amendment thereto in the interests of
trusts; the expressed purpose is, if any
changes are made, to render the law
stronger. One trouble in this country
in the states, in the nation and in all
the cities is an accumulation of laws
covering pretty much every subject I'M
der the sun, passed readily, almost un-
thinkingly, to become instantly dead
letters. There is no need for new
laws. There is grave and urgent need
for the execution of the laws upon the
statute book.

THIRTEENTH MINNESOTA.
Formal order for It's Muster-Out
Expected shortly.

Washington, Dec. 81. - 1t is evident
that the formal order for the muster
out Of the Thirteenth Minnesota regi-
ment in Manila will not be issued for
several days. The matter is now be-
fore the president for consideration.
Gen. Corbin said that the reports from
the Philippines and Cuba OF riotous
proceedings in the latter island and
warfare in the distant archipelago
would have nothing to do with the pro-
gramme for the final mlister-out of a
portion at least of the volunteers. The
president now has before him a list Of
regiments whose muster-out Is under
consideration. While il is not positive
~ stated that the Thirteenth Mime
sofa Is on this list. there is every rea-
son for believing that all the volunteer
troops in Manila which arrived in the
Philippines before the battle there last
summer and which have served since
That time, will be ordered home.

mand to Gen. Otis and in the event
OF Gen. Otis appointment as governor
general OF the Philippines, will assume

England Is being driven out of the
market of Central Asia by Russia, &C
cording to French magazine. The
article referred to Is summarized in
part as follows: A marked increase
is noted in the commerce Of British
India with Khorassan. In 1867 the
value of the English exports from
Bombay to Mashed was only some
s437, 900, less than half that Of the pre-
ceding year. This condition of affairs
is explained as follows. The customs
regulations in force along the whole
extent OF the transcaspian frontier
prohibit the entrance of European and
British-India goods to the markets
of Central Asia, with the exception of
tea, muslin, indigo, spices, Indian
shoes, precious stones and coral, and
these articles are subject to high du-
ties. Russia has succeeded in having
these articles exported by way of
Batum, thus aiding the Trans-caspian
railway. The government Of the car
is trying to monopolize the commerce
of Eastern and Southern Persia. Sub
sides are granted to traders, good
roads have been made in the transcas-
plan territory, consular agents are in
stalled in several districts of Khoras-
san, and the emigration Of Russian
merchants to different parts Of the
province is encouraged The Russian
merchants have penetrated almost to
the frontiers of India, so that where
the English should be masters of the
markets, mostly Russian goods are
sold. The Russian government is also
paying Russian manufacturers boun-
ties SO large that the goods can be
placed on the Central Asia market at
cost of manufacture, thus driving out
goods made in India. The building
by Russia Of the Trans-caspian rail-
way has given that country an i'm
mense advantage.
