It is expected that negotiations will shortly be completed for a visit of the American team of cricketers, who will probably, in that event,arriTe here early in May, and the campaign will be car ried on until September. The programme, so far as it is now ar ranged, takes in 29 games in England alone. It is possible, of course, that the American team may also visit Scotland and Ireland. In England the first-class county elevens will be met. Tbrce games will be played against Warns representative of all-England, and other games will be played in England with the gentlemen of England and the playerf.Tu.ey will play in the 2sorth and South cf England, the Oxford University, the Cambridge Uni versity, Marylebone club.

There is more interest in the proposed visit of the Americans than there bas been in any previous visit. It is considered here that cricket nlauntr in America has rrreat.lv lm. proved during the last year or two, and tbe English cricketers hope that the Americans Mill seud over tbe best eleven they can pet ttrither. There Is also much talk here at present about a series of football matches between English and American teams.

I make only one condition, and that is that the citizens o 'Frisco shall get up a jockey club to control the course, like it is in England, where the stewards are a guarantee of cod mortand honest management. If such a club can be started I am ready to make the course and to Hand it ovei to the club, free of charge." Thompson intends to offer splendid cups as prizes, and not only to keep race horses in California but tn breed them tbere and also to attract the best horses from the Eastern States.

An Admirer of the Game Thinks a Chal lenge Cap Ought to be Secured. The followmz letter on local football will he of interest to those interested in tbe game: To the Sporting Editor of The Dispatch: Sir I read with great interest your opinion last Snnday on foutball at home. I am also a great lover of football, having played both Rugby and Association rnles in the old country. I prefer tbe latter rnles, and I am glad to know that the public is taking an interest in the game. 1 think there are some clubs in and about Pittsburg that could induce our leading busi ness men who patronize football to give a chal lenge cup to be plaved for. I think tuis a good idea, and it would make tbe game more popular In this section of the State. In Ireland they have got a cup that they call tbe Irish Inter national Challenge Cup, and all tbe professional clubs play font. The club winning it three years in succession holds it, and tbe club win ning it one year only, their name is engraved on it for the vear they won it. Yours respectfully, WitUAsr McIlveen.

TnE Amateur Athletic Union has decided to hold the entry list for the football championship ocen until next Friday. Three entries were re ceived, bnt only the Manhattan A.

Vice President Lane, ot the Union Pacific Railway, was seen to-day with regard to the stories with which the "street" of late has teemed de rogatory to the Union Pacific, its manage ment, eic TVlih regard to the "boycott" and the effect thereof, Mr. Lane said: "The west-bonnd through business is really all tbat is affected, and eveD this can suffer but little." The Union Pacific people are not at all disturbed by the so-called "boycott," and they find in the causes leading to it and in tbe ill-Teeling of competitors an inspira tion for all the recent wild reports concern ing the road. The stories of accidents hare, Mr. Lane says, been ereatly exaggerated. A few ac cidents have naturally occurred under the circumstances of enormous traffic, bnt none of these have involved any serious damage. As regards the latest story from Chicago to the effect tbat the management was working tacitly to wreck the road with aview to ulti mately turning it over to the "Vonderbilts, Mr. Lane says the yarn is too ahjard to deny. LOOKING AFTER LO. General Grierson Wants the Bad In dian Tribes Kept Apart. VALUE OF KED MEN AS SCOUTS. Better Accommodations Reeded for Troops on the Frontiers. A SI0DX PROPHET MAKING TROUBLE "Washington, October 28. In bis an nual report upon the operations of the army in the Department of Arizona Briga dier General Grierson gives at considerable length a historr of the events of the year. He says now that Forts McDowell and Verde have been abandoned with a view to their early transfer to the Interior Depart ment for Indian school purposes, the authorities should consider the advisability of reducing with the least possible delay the number ot Indians in the vicinity of the San Carlos agency by the removal of the Yuma and Hojave Indians, numbering about 1,000, to those reservations. The keeping of so many Indians at San Carlos is detrimental to their advancement and tends to a renewal of old feuds. White men have taken up nearly all of the hunting and grazing grounds ot the quiet and peaceable Yavai Suppai Indians in the Cataract Canon, Arizona, and these Indians have become exasperated to such a degree tbat trouble'is likely to arise at any time. RESTORING THEIR HERITAGE. Therefore, General Grierson recommends that "Black Tanks," their heriditary winter camp, taken from them by white men two years ago, be restored; that their reserva tion be enlarged and defined, and their title made good. The report says that recent surveys have shown that a railroad can be constructed throughout the Grand Canon of the Colorado at a feasible cost, and liberal encourage ment should be given by the Government to hasten its completion 'and open up that famous wonderland, now beyond the reach of man v. The General recommends that the term of enlistment of Indian scouts should be in creased by pay on the re-enlistment. The position shouid be made desirable, so as to secure the services of the best class of In dians. The proposition made by an Indian inspector to organize a regiment of Indians, it is said, would prove a very dangerous ex periment. To place the worst clement to be lonnd among the most savage Indians in a regular army organization under white offi cers would be unsafe and would be placing too much faith in such Indians. ABANDONING OLD FORTS. The posts at Forts Lowell, Grant and Bayard, says the General, can be aban doned without detriment to tbe service, and such of the troops now stationed there as cannot be provided for in New Mexico and Arizona may be removed to Southern Cali fornia, The post at Fort TJnton could be abandoned at once by transferring Troop G, Sixth Cavalry, to Fort Wingate; Company C, Tenth Infantry, to Fort Marcy, and Company H, of that regiment, to Fort Stanton. General Grierson renews his recommenda tion that the present military reservation at San Pedro, Cal., be enlarged, as it is the most available place for a harbor adjacent to Los Angeles. The small, poorly situated post of San Diego, Cal., should be disposed of, and a more suitable reservation obtained without delay, in order that a large post may be permanentlv established at that im portant seaport and facilities afforded for the proper iortification of Point Iona. The best site is at North Island, a peninsula on the east side of the bay entrance. General Grierson says that Congress should make liberal appropriations for the purchase of such tracts and the construction of per manent posts for the accommodation of troops now at inland ports, where they are no longer needed and which must soon be abandoned. ESTABLISHING PERMANENT POSTS. The railroads obviate the necessity for keeping so many troops in the territories where hardships and privations have to be endured, and they should be concentrated on the sea coast where they can be made comfortable, instructed and disciplined. In view of the recent unwarranted at tempt to grasp Lower California from Mexico the time is auspicious lor the estab lishment of these permanent posts. The General speaks with satisfaction of tbe marked improvement in tbe condition of the Indians of the White Mountain reser vation, and he recommends that they have a separate agency, and tbat a good school be established at Fort Apache. General Grierson says that the Jicarillas, who are still attached to the Ute agency, should have a separate agency. He says that Mr. Batholomew, the agent, spends his time with the TJtes seeking to accomplish their removal. His clerk, Mr. Stallsteimer, the former agent, who converted the Ute reservation into a cattle range and used the Jicarilla reservation for tbe same purpose is an enemy ol the Indians and should have nothing to do with either agency. KICKING HOESE THE KI0KEE, And the Cunning Method Ho Employs to Foment Indian Troubles. Bismarck, October 28. Kicking Horse, the great Sionx prophet, seems to be re sponsible for most of the trouble at Standing Bock. He claims to have visited heaven , . , . ., . . ,, ., T ,. and returned to earth to tell the Indians what Rood things are in store for them. Major McLaughlin ordered him off the reservation,, and confined several other and confined troublesome spirits in the guard house. The Indians have been making day and night hideous. Kicking Horse is cunning enough to mix Christianity with his prophe sies. He tells them they must not kill the whites, as the Great Spirit would take care of them. If it were spring instead of fall there would be danger of an uprising, but it is not believed that one will now occur. THE MORTGAGE TROUBLED HIM, And to Got Kid of It a Colored Man Forsakes thePoUcy of Honesty. DENVER, October 28. Harry Forrester, alias George Evans, alias Charles Homes, was arrested last night on a charge of ob taining money under false pretenses. His manner of operating was quite novel and very successful.

Chairman Ayres Does Not like the Qnlet Attitude of AUeghenlans. At Independent Republican headquarters yesterday, notwithstanding the fact that It was a blue Monday, there was considerable enthusi asm. Chairman Ayres was busy, as usual,with bis assistants, opening letters, addressing com munications, etc A number of letters were re ceived from persons in country districts, pledg ing support to the Fattison ticket. Mr. Ayres said: "We got a number of new accessions, to-day, and tbe only case of drawback was the Fittb avenne barber, mentioned yesterday. Tbe deeper we get into the movement the more 'voters we find coming with us. They are not confined to Fitlsburg or Allegheny county, but are in all the counties. Tbe only thing I don't like is tbe quiet feeling in Allegheny. If Me are weak anywbereit is there, on accountof having the postofSce. police, and fire departments to fight.

Eapid Transmission From New York to Philadelphia Planned BY JIEAKS OP PiVKDMATIC TDBES. A 2few Project Which Seems to te Yery Profuse in Promises. FEASIBLE FEATDEES OF THE SCHEME New Yobk, October 28. Arrangements are making for the laying of a double pneu matic tube line between New York and Philadelphia. Between these two and all intermediate points it is expected that let ters, newspapers and small packages will be whirled at the rate of four miles a minute. S. F. Leake, ot Philadelphia, claims to have discovered all the es sentials to this great undertaking namely, a practical switching sys tem for intermediate points, a long-distance carrier that will not heat by friction, ability to stop tbe same without serious shock or injury, and very rapid transmission of messages, etc., without even a liability to accident. His carriers will run on wheels whose axles will revolve in a journal of asbestos and plumbago. The carriers will be automatically stopped by .compressed air, and he will be able, he says, by means of a block' system to make a switch or a sta tion at any point on the line. In order to test the practicability and efficiency of Mr. Leake's patent devices a double pneumatic tube'line will shortly be laid between Jersey City and Newark on the route which has been selected for the throngh line. The transmission of letters, newspapers and small packages between these two points will furnish approximately accurate criteria about the business possi bilities of the new enterprise. Althongh tbe inventor will start his sys tem for the transmission of letters, newspa pers and small packages, he hopes, in case of success, to adapt it to larcer uses. In fact, he says that he may yet solve the problem of cheap and rapid transit, and run passenger trains and freight trains through monster tubes with absolute safety. Such pneumatic inventors in this city as Edward Vernon, of No. 38 AVall street, being interviewed, say that they have no doubt that if the new scheme works success fully as far as Newark it will be made just as feasible and practicable through to Phila delphia, and that it will be profitable. WILL APPEAL TO AMERICA To Relieve the Distress in Ireland's Famlne Sfricken District. rSFECIAL TEI.EGB.aM TO THE DISPATCH. New Yobk, October 28. T. B. Gill, the delegate of the Irish Parliamentary party, who is now in America, denied to-dav that the Irish par'y was indifferent to the action of Americans in collecting money for the relief of the famine-threatened counties of Ireland. Among other things he said: The delegation of tbe Irish Parliamentary party wno'are 6n their way to this country at the present moment will be representatives equally of tbe people of tbe distressed districts and of tbe rest of Ireland. It will certainly be a part of their business to lay before the American people the exact plight of their famine-stricken constituents. Re lief of distress will form a leading por tion of our programme, distress occasioned by the famine and distress among the thou sands of evicted families who are always in proximate danger of starvation and who de pend solely upon our aid for their support. But we also intend to appeal for the means of ad vancing that policy which aims at ending forever this periodical re currence of famine. Our only anxiety is not to see the mischief of 1879 repeated, when, for want of a proper system in the distribution, a large proportion of the money subscribed was worse than wasted. Much of it passed straight into the pockets of tbe landlords. There is no danger of a recurrence of this error. FIGHTING FOR A PATENT. The Invention of a Beer Filter, Worth Millions of Dollars, In Dispute. Washington, October 28. Commis sioner Mitchell, of the Bureau of Patents, to-day rendered an important decision in the case of Zwietusch against Stockheim, involving the right to a certain beer filter and a filtering process for purifying beer, now In very general use in this country. It appears from tbe record that Stockheim's applications were first in the Patent Office. Zweituscb, however, claims to be the first inventor of tbe apparatus for prac ticing tbe process as well as the process itself. The only question inyolved, there fore, is tbat of priority of invention. The Board of Examiners of tbe Patent Office lound for Zweitusch. On appeal to the Commissioner, however, their decision was reversed aud priority awarded to Stock heim. This decision follows that of Judge Gresham, recently rendered in the suit brought by Simon and Frederick tThlmann, as assignee of the Stockheim patent, against Bartholnmay and the Leicht Brewing Com pany. Very large interests are involved in this decision, inasmuch as the invention is said to be valued at several million dollars. MIFFED AT THE IRON MEN.
