Five Injured.

Five passengers were seriously
injured, one Of them so badly that she
was not at first expected to live, and
three cars were demolished, as a
result of an accident which occurred
on the Burlington and Lamoille d.
vision of the Central Vermont rail-
way March 49, The injured are: -
Mrs. G.. H. Bickford, wife of a promi-
nent granite manufacturer of Hard
wick. She suffered a conclusion of
the brain and is injured internally.
She will recover from her injuries.
Mrs. Bickford was going from Hard
wick to Bennington and was to have
sailed early in April for Europe in
company with Mr.. and Mrs. j. II.
Holden of Bennington. Mrs. Lee of
Middlebury, several ribs broken. G.
III. Start of Bakersfield, son of Judge
Start, ribs fractured and other
internal injuries. Henry Sherman of
Cambridge, arm and shoulder injured.
The accident was caused by the
spreading of the rails. The engine
left the track, but was not overturned.
The three cars were thrown from the
track and rolled down bank about
30 feet high to the banks of the
Lamoil!e river, the only thing that
prevented them from going through
the ice being row of elm trees
against which the cars were lodged.
There were about 20 passengers on
the train in addition to the train crew.

Failure OF sulIy the Cotton King.
The susper sion of Daniel J. Sully
and Company, the senior member OF
which is Daniel j. Sully, the opera
tor whose dealings in and manipuia-
ton of the cotton market have been
the sensation of the speculative world
for more than year, was announced
on the Cotton Exchange March 18th.
This announcement came at the close
of long decline in the price of future
contracts. Some weeks ago on heavy
buying, believed to have been more
of manipul alive than of an invest
ment character, the price for future
delivery of the staple was pushed
above the II cent mark and pre-
dictions were made by those in charge
of the bull campaign that the 20 cent
mark would be reached and passed.
These predictions, however, were
never realized and when the bull pool
tried to realize some of its paper
profits it found that the bears had
"taken the market and in one after
moor there was rapid drop in prices
of more than a cent a pound. No
definite estimate of Sully's liabilities
could be had, but the best opinion
appears to be that they would reach
from 100000 to 100000.
Gen. Wood Becomes Major General.
By the action of the senate in
executive session Friday Gen. Leonard
Wood became major general, taking
the rank from August s, 1908, the day
President Roosevelt made the promo
ton. The contest against bis con-
frmation has been notable one e,
beginning November 10, 1908. The
nomination was confirmed by vote
of 40 TO Is. The late Senator Hanna
was recognized as the leader of the
opposition to Gen. Wood and had it
not been for his death just before the
disposition of the case it is conceded
that the vote would have been much
closer. 1t has not been believed at
any time since the contest opened,
however, that the fight against con-
firmation would be successful. Some
republican members of the senate
placing their confidence in the
judgment of Senator Hanna, would
have stood by him in his opposition
to the promotion Of Gen. Wood, but
when death removed the late senator
from the conflict only two republicans
remained in the minority-Senato,
Scott, a member of the mil1tar.
affairs committee, who oppose th'
nomination while ii was pending Il
committee, and Senator Ki ttredge.

The Japanese made their regular
weekly attack on Port Arthur Monday
night and Tuesday forenoon. The
purpose of these repeated lombard
ments Is evidently to worry the Rus
sian defenders, exhaust their ammuni-
ton and do all the damage possible
without exposing their ships to
serious injury. No attempt to land
troops in the vicinity of Port Arthur
is yet reported. The garrison is
being provisioned for a long siegF,
which it is expected the Japanese
will begin as soon as the landing
places are free of ice.
Admiral Makaroff is making the
Russian naval force at Port Arthur
more aggressive. He frequently
leaves the harbor for practice cruises,
usually finding the Japanese patrols
that repairs on the Retvizap, Care
witch and Pallada, injured in the first
fight, are we'll along. With these
vessels added, the Russian squadron
would be able to cope with the Jap
anese on almost equal terms. The
loss of Russian torpedo boat
destroyer, which was reported to
have encountered floating mine and
to have gone down with all save four
of her crew, is officially denied.
The Russian Vladivostok squadron
is reported to have made its way out
of the icy harbor by the use of dyna-
mite. It's destination is unknown,
but it is surmised it will try to unite
with the Port Arthur squadron.
Land operations are still in the pre-
liminary stage. The Japanese have
large force in northern and western
Korea, with considerable body con-
centrated at Ping Yang and outposts
at Anju. In front the Russians have
an observation force and the scouts
frequently clash. There is yet no
general advance by the japanese,
who are finding it difficult to bring up
supplies overland. The Russians
content themselves with watching
their foe, while their main force con-
centrates back of the Yalu, ready to
dispute it's passage.
Gen. Kouropatkin, the new Russian
commander, has passed Irkustk on
his way to Manchuria.
1t has been reported that the Rus
sian Baltic feet, instead of going to
the East via the Suez canal, might
attempt the Northeast passage, above
Siberia and via Behring Strait to the
Pacific. This voyage has been made
by only one explorer and is extremely
hazardous. That the Baltic fleet,
raised to high point of efficiency
and accompanied by Golfers for co al
ing at sea, will leave early in the
the summer to reinforce the Asiatic
squadron is altogether probable.

The President has signed a
proclamation providing for the
opening of the coded lands of the
Devils Lake Indian reservation
in North Dakota. This is very
fertile country, and is to be dis
posed of by a registration and
drawing similar to that of the
ceded lands of the Rosebud reser-
walton in South Dakota, in a re-
cent proclamation. There will
be a great crowd to contest for
the quarter section farms compris-

Lake reservation. The registra-
ton will be from August 8 to 20,
at Devils Lake and Grand Forks,
and the drawing will begin at the
first named place on September 6.

OPENING OF CEDED LANDS

This land was originally set apart
for the Sioux Indians, but for
some time past has been coveted
by the avaricious white men of the
vicinity. Railroads run on either
side of the tract, and next year
will probably see it the site of
farms in cultivation and dotted
with homes, public school houses
and churches, and thus the land
so long controlled by the Indians
will have gone from them forever.
A few more generations, and the
noble red man that only a century
ago was monarch of this great
country, will have disappeared
from it. He is being swallowed
up by civilization, and will soon
sink beneath it's surging waves to
rise no more.

with no money to pay his fine,

vised market, which has suddenly
grown into prominence among res

is perch.

that the people must examine
their mail before leaving the Of
flee, and if they have mail other

ence. This law includes newspa-
pers as well as first-class mail.
The report about the high diver

Saturday is a fake. This report,

neck a few times. He is simply
working the newspapers for some
free advertising. He was not.
hurt Saturday afternoon at all.
