The Democratic Mowhards who

The delay in the iaynient of the

tariff will not raise sufficient revenue
to pay current expenses, let alone the

Mr. Oi.kvkxam is diligt-ntly em

was argued that tin plate could not be
manufactured in this country at a liv

a single tin plate mill in this country.

what a mighty revolution in this in-dj-trylia
occurred within the space
of a few years. When the McKinley

were more thaa forty; now the huiuIrt

could not be manufactured in this

ETZKT WHITE MAS SLAUT.
All the Settlers in Jacktost Hole Kaiiacred
by Indians.
Pocatei.io, Id., July 26u A courier
who arrived at Market Ike, Id., this
evening reports that all the settlers in
Jackson Hole, men women and children,
have been murdered by Indians and all
the houses burned. Ho could give only
meager particulars of the alleged mass
acre, but said that a companion had at
tempted to reach the scene of the trouble,
and if the latter escaped tho Indians, he
would undoubtedly reach Market Lane
within 21 hours with details of the light.
Further news from Jackson Holo is
awaited with great anxiety.
To-night signal fires can le seen blaz
ing in the mountains, and it is stated on
good authority that the Indians now off
the reservation have sent hack the poniea
taken away with them, for more braves.
A lnd of bad Bannocks, led by a dis
reputable white man, left to join the reds
yesterday.
The state'ment has been made here that
Agent Teter is resixmsible for the present
trouble, as he has leen in the habit of al
lowing the bucks to leave the reservation
whenever they chose. Some say that his
kindness is lsxause the Indians off the
reservation draw no rations.
Isaac Hall, a traveling man, arrived
here this morning, having come directly
through the conutry in which the bush
whacking campaign was being carried
on between barricaded settlers and am
bushed Indians. Mr. Hall learned that
there Were To heads of families iu Jack

had been preparing for the conditions
that existed. In order to forestall the In
dians, they louglit up all the aminuni
tion that could lie olHained in this section
and they had alxiut 100 rifles and every
settler was supplied with 1,000 rounds of
ammunition.
It was feared that the Indians would
make a sudden attack on the settlers and
then retire to their reservation, so that by
the time the regulars arrived they would
lie peaceably lounging in their accustom
ed haunts.

Pocatki.lo, Ida., July 25. Reports
from Market Lake say the liexbnrg, Ida.,
paper of yesterday rejiorts that 59 white
people were killed by Bannocks near
Jackson Hole, but there is no way to
confirm the report, and it is not believed
here. Fortv-four carloads of United
States cavalry left Cheyenne for Market
Lake with provisions, horses and tents.
They will reach Po-atello this afternoon
The troops will go to the Wind river, and
it is not likely that any trouble will oo-
cur after their arrival.
The situation in north-western Wyo
ming has not improved. In fact all the
advices that have reached the reservation
are of a directly opposite nature. Adjt.
lien. Stitzer, of Wyoming, at Marke
Iike, has lcen hourly expecting to heat
that a conflict had occurred lietween the
settlers and the Indians in the Jackson
Hole alley. I wo of his messengers
dispatched to that district several days
ago, have not returned, although overdue.
Grave fears are entertained that they
have been ambushed by the Indians.
From the other direction the news is of
an equally disquieting nature.
Indian police, who have returned from
the Salt Hiver Valley, where the big trad
ing pow wow has been in progress for a
week, say that tho band of Bannock In
dians, under the leadership of Jim Hal
lard, has started north toward the seat of
trouble. If these Indians reach the lie!
ligerents in the Fall Itiver Valley liefore
the troops get there, and they undoubt
edly will, the result may be disastrous
Ballard's liand is compised of the worst

The Indians are Qaiet.
Market Lake, Idaho, July 2ft, A
courier from Sargeants Lodge says the
fires in Jacksous Hole, thought to l
signal fires of the Indians, were forest
fires which the rains have now extin
guished. The settlers are very greatly
excited, and many have deserted their
homes fearing an outbreak.
It is reported that a Tew Indians are
returning to the Bannock reservation
from Jacksous Hole, but mnch greater
numbers are pouring iu than those leav
ing.
About 2.V) men of the Seventeenth In
fantry hit Market Lake for Jacksous
Hole to-night, but owing to the rough
ness of the road it will take them longer
than was expected to complete the inarch
of over lot) miles.
Arrivals from Sida Springs this morn'
ii:g report that the Indians are leaving
the Hole, and when the soldiers reach
Jacksous Hole there will probably not
lie an Indian in sight. The Indians are

Killed For Hot Caring.
Sprinhfielp, 111., July 25. The best
known physician of Morrison ville. Dr.
Richard Reasoner, was delilierately way
laid and murdered last night by Alfred
Kntrekin, for the very remarkable reas
on that Entrekin believed the d.ictor had
unseated Mrs. Eutrekin's reason by the
administration of the wrong remedies
when the woman was ilL
Morrisonville is a village southeast of
this city, one of those hamlets where ev
ery Ixxly knows and talks about every
other person's affairs. Mrs. Entrekin, a
lady well-known to all the villagers, was
recently taken very ill with a fever. Dr.
Reasoner, the nearest, aud generally re
puted to be the best, physician in that
community, was summoned. After Mrs.
Kutrekin had passed through a severe
siege of fever and finally recovered un
der the doctor's treatment, she showed
such unmistakable evidences of insanity
as sometimes develop in fever patients,
especially adults afflicted with severe
cases of scarlet fever.
TONUUES BKUAN TO WAO.
The neighbors began to gossip about
the case, and various methods of treat
ment, radically different from those pur
sued by Dr. Reasoner in attending Mrs.
Entrekin, were suggested by one and
another of tho villagers. Finally En
trekin himself became greatly wrought
up over the case. He diligently inquired
concerning just what prescriptions had
been made out for his wife. By compari
son of notes with the neighbors he reach
ed the conclusion that the wrong drugs
had been administered, and that Mrs.
Entrekin would not have lost her reason
under other treatment.
"You have made my wife insane with
your drugs, and I'll kill you for it!" ex
claimed Entrekin to the doctor the first
time he met him after the new theory
had been evolved. This threat waa fre
quently repeated, and last night the ag
grieved bus! wind s deadly purpose was
executed.
SHOT HEAD IN HIS TRACKS.
Armed with a shotgun and revolver,
Entrekin lay in wait for Dr. Reasoner as
the latter was returning from a profess
ional visit out of town. No sooner did
the defenseless doctor appear within
range of the weapons than Entrekin
opened fire ujxin him. A perfect fusil
ade of shots was fired, and both loads
from the gun and several bullets from the
revolver took effect.
The doctor fell forward, and was prob
ably dead before he struck the ground.
Persons who heard the shots and had
known of Eutrekin's threats, rushed to
the scene of the tragedy. But before
they got there the fleeing murderer had
escaped. He is lieiug pursued by many
citizens, indignant at the awful result of
the gossip which they themselves helped
to spread. If Entrekin is caught he will
probably be handled very violently, if
not summarily lynched.
Big Kailroad Project.
Chicaoo, July 2S. The scheme of com
bining or consolidating tho Pennsylv
nia aud Burlington systems of railroads
which was talked of two years ago, but
abandoned on account of the financial
panic, has again came to the surface in
railroad circles and the opinion is freely
expressed by parties who are supposed
to be well posted, that before another
year has passed, the two Dystonia will be
united into one grand trans-continental
through line, extending from the At
lantic to the Pacific.
The proposed alliance, if consummated,
would make one of the largest railroad
combinations in the United States The
total mileage would exceed 12hiO mi les,
including leased lines and the roads
controlled by each of these companies,
If the deal is carried out according to
program, the Pennsylvania will be
represented in the directory of tho Bur
lington, and the Burlington will have
corresponding foothold in the directory
of the Pennsylvania. The practical
management or the combined system is
to lie by an executive committee instead
of a president. Both Presidents Roberts
and Perkins are to remain at the bead of
their respective companies but they will
not have the same powers as at present
The contemplated plan is similar to tho
management of the English railroads
and is iu accordance with the suggestions
ot tue r.ngnsii KtorKlioiders or both com
panies The terms of the promised ar
rangement are that the Pennsylvania
shall turn over all its business going
West of Chicago to the Burlington, and
the Burlington shall give the Pennsylva
uia the exclusive benefit of its eastlioiind
traffic.
A Tonng Heroine.
Proliably the youngest heroine in this
country is Miss tJertie Anderson, of Min
nesota. Miss Anderson is only four
months over seven years old, and she has
saved the lives of a numlier of passengers
on the Duluth, Mississippi A Northern
Road.
There are a number of muspegs or sub
terranean lakes which open suddenly and
suck whatever happens to be alsive
them. Gertie Anderson flagged a passen
ger train on July lft, which was plunging
toward to the point where the rail roa
had just sunk out of sight in tho muspeg,
(iertie had lived in the swamp region
lietween Duluth and Grand Rapids long
enough to know the danger lurking iu the
muspegs When she saw the tracks
disappear she realized the fate that would
befall the next train, anil so, being a level
headed little lass she determined to flag
it. Thanks to her bravery, she has been
made the recipient of all sorts of presents,
and moreover, Mr. Anderson, who is a
fairly well-educated man has lieen offer
ed a position with the Duluth, Mississip

There are no Cberokees present, they hav

A large number of officers are on the
grounds to preserve order, but regardless
of that fact, more or less devilment is
done, two men being killei last year.
They will dance around fires nightly the
scalp dance, which represents a scalping,
together with the burning of the body. -Carted

Back Twice Ont of Joint.
Norristown, Pa., July 27. James
Stiles of this city, suffers the unusual
misfortune of having had bis bwkboiie

Six weeks ago he fell from a stepladder
at Slatingtou, and struck his Inek on the

There are now 4o,000 Spanish soldiers
in Cutis, and 40,i0 more are expected
from Spain after the close of -the rainy
season. This seems a preposterously
large numlier of men for the suppression
of the two or three thousand bandits and
cattle thieves who, according to official
Spanish accounts constitute the whole
force of the Cuban revolutionists. Evi
dently thessutbreak iu Culm has assumed
larger projiortions than the Spaniards
care to admit.
A Muneey girl played a telling joke
upon her mother. She found a package
of letters that her father had written to
her mother when they were only lovers.
The daughter read several of these tender
epistles to her mother, substituting her
own name in the place of that of the latter,
The maternal ancestor declared such
stuff to be silly nonseuso and coldly in
formed her daughter that she should
permit no young man to address her in
such loving terms. Then the girl reveal
ed the joke, and she hsis no more olista
cles laid in the path of her lieaux.
Apropis of the ca'erpillar nuisance,
reports have been received from Bismark,
N. D., which slate that a new kind of cat
erpillar has made his apN-arante in that
region, and haa proceeded i t once to de
nude shade trees of their foliage. The
worm spins a rtssMin which is large and
of unusually strong fibre, l imui exam
ination by experts is has lieen found that
the thread is almost as strong as silk and
of a similar texture. Specimens of the
worm and cocoon have lieen forwarded
to the Government experts at Washing
ton, and it may yet turn out that what
the Bismark ians considered a bane limy
be a blessing in disguise. What a pity
it is that some redeeming feature may
not be found in the hical caterpillar pest
now giving Chief Eisenhower and the
public at large so much trouble.
After tho many severe lessons which
the United States soldier has taught the
redskin it strikes one as strange to find
any of the tribes in war paint. The
Bannocks are, however, a peculiarly eon
ditioned trilie. They have always lieen
the proudest and bravest of the Shoshone
.family, and in the old days were the
most daring Indians in the bison chase
and on the bunt for big game. Many
years ago the Federal Government coop
ed them up on a reservation, with scarce
ly any fish or game. The Government
troop prevented their customary hunt
Ing in tho Yellowstone region. Never
theless they have not indulged in open
hostilities sinee lStiTi, and it is probable
that they would not now, 5u or (inn :
them at liest, defy the troops of the
White Father at Washington but f
some scoundrelly work among unscrup
ulous whites in Wyoming or Utah
With the advent of the approaching cav
