CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES
REPORTED FAYORABLY

Washington. d. c., May Io-The
senate committee on Indian depreda
tions has favorably reported a bill
which will. II il becomes a law. call
for the adjudication by the court OF
claims OF some 10000 Indian dcprcda
tion claims aggrcgating more than
$43,0O0.ooo. The object OF the bill is to
remove the bar which has heretofore
existed against many OF these claims.
which arose from the fact that at the
time the dcprcdatons were committed
the Iniian tribes were engaged in hos
tile warfare with the United States
government, and also from the further
fact that many OF the claimants were
not Citizens" OF the United States, be
ing Indians, or hall-bretds, and there
fore being barred from citizenshi by
the federal statutes.
More than half OF these claims grew
out OF the hostile raids made by the
Indian tribes now located in the south

has assumed
The committee in reporting the bill
providing for the payment of these
claims says
"The origina oi these claims for com
pensation or depredations committed
by Indians was in the trade and inter
course act Of June 80, 1884, (Rev. Stat,
sec 2TSo). though this act itself merely
undertook TO redeem a promise first
made by congress in I7O0 of eventual
indemnihcation' for depredations COM
uitted by Indians. But neither OF these
acts nor IN any of the subsequent stat
utes down TO that OF March 3. 1885

the procedure by which it was to be
obtained was there any requirement

LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE.
Value of Money Has Arisen Persis.
 tentiy-Prospects Better,

London. September 2s.-The fact that the Bank of Englands rate of discount. 3 per cent. today remains unchanged from the ngure quoted for the past eight months has caused undisguised satisfac- ton and imparted a feeling of steadiness to situation which Is otherwise regard ed as decidedly uncertain. In all other quarters the value of money has risen persistently The announcement that the band had no immediate intention of rais- ing it's rate of discount had no visible ef- feet in making money easier. Brokers rates, in fact. have risen to 3M and 31h per cent, and in consequence of this rise much discount business is going to the Bank of England. The banks rate, how ever. rarely fails to rise in October The position of the bank remains strong, for, although the reserve and bullion are both s2,0o0,000 less than year ago the totals are several million pounds higher than Is usual at this time of year.
 That exchange has not been weakened by the American need of gold Is attribut- ed to New Yorks inability to draw freely on London. owing to the heavy American credits which already have been opened in Europe. Ot the gold taken out of the bank of England recently considerable portion has gone to South America, the demand there having assumed important dimensions.
 The depression in shares was more than ever accentuated last week and the shrinkage in values developed in some cases to really alarming slumps in in- yestments hitherto considered unassail- able. The downward movement in Brit ish railroad shares continues and con- sols have been unable to survive the gem eral weakness Mines are sluggish and declining and miscellaneous stocks par ticipated in the generally lower tend ency.

BERLIN BoERsE.
German Market Watching Wall Street
 With Keen Interest.

Berlin, September 2S.-All the financial har been watching Wall street through out the rast week with the keenest at tention, and say the prospects for specu- lation here are not regarded as bright The continued prosperity of the United States awakens increas sing interest in the American situation. The general tenor of financial comment is full of distrust nevertheless the Frankfurter Zeitung which all along has been sceptical of the Wall street boom, admits today that Europe, and particularly Germany, has underestimated the strength of the Amer ican market, and has taken fright too socn- The paper says that all reports which are now being received here from American bankers agree that in view of the markets strength, excellent crops end forthcoming large financial projects, no crash is feared in America These as- surances have given the German market feeling of safety; nevertheless appre- hension still exists here. and it is caus- ing the outside public to stand entirely aloof from speculation.
 New York was actively seeking money here last week offering 6 per cent inter- est and nigh commission.
 Most departments of the Berlin mark . showed declines last week. but without pronounced weakness. The rise in money rates depressed domestic and foreign loans. Industrials shares were mostly lower during tne week.
 The announcement yesterday of the failure of the Rheinan- Mannheim Chem ical comrany, which was accompanied by revelations of forged balance sheets for eight years past. made a painful .n- pression on the market

IIIL DEF ENUo TIE HUo S' President of Great Northern Railroad Makes Speech at County Fair.

St. Paul. Minn.. September 2S.-In an address at the Grand County fair at Elbow Lake last evening President J. J.. Hill of the Great Northern railroad and Northern Securities company said:
 There are so-called industrial enter prises whose only industry is in running printing presses to print shares of stock. If there is no harm in enterprise, if there are five or ten of them that are good, that is, no bad in them, and when you put them together there is no bad in the entire mass. But the object is to get something for nothing, to get something that docs not belong to them, to get money out of another's pocket and put 1t into their own, 1t is all wrong. Some of the great enterprises are absolutely sound and right"
 Continuing, Mir. Hill said:
 Some people advocate. our President advocates turning everything over to the congress. What sort of congress would we have after while if all the business or the country were turned over to it? think they would be doing business in the halls of congress. but the business they would do would not bring business to you that you want I think l should hold every man responsible for himself ana his own acts. If he does wrong punish him; if he does right, protect him When this Is done those questions will take care of themselves"

 He declared that an attempt to revise the tariff now would be to injure the business interests of the country to a de- gree that could not possibly be compen- sated for by any advantages that might accrue from tariff revision. He admitted that the Dingley tariff bill was not 8 perfect law, but declared that much oi our present prosperity is due to it, not. withstanding.
