White & Co., New York and Chicago, was made on the stock ex change this morning. White says the failure is due to long speculation in corn, and not in stocks. . The liabilities of the firm are very large, but they have only a few hundred shares of stock outstand ing on contract. No estimate can be given yet. The announcement of the failure of S. V.N White & Co., although not unexpected in some quarters, created consternation for the moment, especially - in' the corn pit where the firm is known to be the leading one of a band of brokers who have been representing a clique in the bull deal, which has been running in September and October corn for several weeks. When the bell tapped the traders clambered over each other in their effort to be heard, and all sorts of prices were asked and bid at the same moment. The exbitement then began , to quiet t?own.. Whether it was because trades were all covered or because cooler heads decided to prevent a panic by waiting until matters quieted down cannot be determined. By II ;30 October corn bad dropped to 49.

T., Sept.. 22. Simulta neous with the arrival of the hour of noon, home seekers gathered on the bor der and made a headlong rush over the line into the coveted countrv and on to the quarter section upon which their eyes had been feasting for some days, and others for weekB and months. - The rush was a mad one and was. made so by the fact that the members of home seekers greatly exceed the number of quarter sections available for settlement. There.is room in the lands for about 5, 000 settlers, allowing 160 acres for each. There were on the border; six.' waiting to claim available land fully 15,000 peo ple, so that there were but three people for each quarter section. The like scenes were never witnessed before, ex cept in Oklahoma two years ago. Fire and Wind in Dakota. Masdad, S. D. Sept. .22. The fire which swept 'over the.

Washington, Sept., 21.--A week ago Secretary Tracy remarked: "If the Am erican missions and American citizens in China are to rely upon gunboats instead of ihe Chinese government, oar fleet in those waters must be largely increased." While thera Is so' formal alliaac, yet the United States government has reached an understanding with the gov ernments of Great Britain and France and Germany, by the terms of which, in the event of the failure - of the Chinese government to afford adequate guarantee for protection of the lives and nronertv of citizens of these nations, that duty will be undertaken by the governments of Great Britain, France and Germanv. acting jointly.

A SWINDLING SCHEME West Virginia Comes To The Front With A Large Scheme For Robbing The People. Eight Hundred Thousand Acres For ' SettlementThe Railroad Ahead. Crops Seriously Damage In England by Recent Heavy Storms Scotish Lowlands Flooded. Charleston, W. Va., Sept. 21. One of the most astounding swindles in the history of the country has just been brought to light here by Federal detec tives, who have arrested Henry Ash and G. W. Rose, two of the three ringleaders. ' Robert F. Lively, the man who origi nated the scheme, escaped to the moun tains, but a posse is after him. Some weeks ago these men originated at St. Albans, this county, a branch of what was alleged to be the "National Assem bly," said by the conspirators to be a patriotic order, having for its object the relief of the national government. It was proposed to put into the possession of the government the gold coin hoarded up by the people, to the end that the government might be enabled to meet its obligations and be saved from national repudiation. The treasury de partment, it was explained, had plenty of paper money, and had agreed that all the gold coins paid into the assembly, and certified by the officers there would be paid five times the sum in paper cur rency. Nothing less than $200 would be accepted from any one. The thing- took in a surprising way. The country was scoured for gold. The men paid $1200 for $800, and scores gave $200 to $500 for the worthless certificates of the swind lers. - The Chesapeake & Ohio company paid its employes in gold, and large sums of this money went into the coffers of Lively and his pals. Poor men bar rowed, begged and mortgaged that they might raise gold, and many a dollar of hard-earned savings went into the "local assemblies" fox the relieLot the govern- . ment. The postofflce authorities " got wind of the thing a week ago, and today the arrest were made. The excitement over the swindle is great. It Is .esti mated that the swindlers obtained $50, 000 from their dupes, many of whom are left penniless. , WILL : KBj, OPSLS31 4 TODAY. Eight Hundred - Thousand . Acre for Actual Settlement. Guthrie, O. T., Sept. 21. The land that is to be opened for settlement tomor row noon consists of the country of the Sacs, the Foxes, the Iowas and the Potta watomies. In all there are 1,101,595 acres. The Indians do not lose all their lands. Each buck gets a quarter section, and not only that, but he is a lawful "Sooner" and has already picked out the prize spots. He cannot sell his land for twenty -five years, but during that time he does not have to pay taxes. . After -the Indian land and the'land for school purposes have been deducted from the 1,101,595 acres,. about 800,000 are opened for actnal settlement. Thi makes 5000 homesteads and about twenty men for every homestead .. are . on the:,, ground. : Some are hovering : along th line and some are : already in what is, until noon- tomorrow, forbidden country. It is the.old Oklahoma, rush over -again, with some modifications. . There are not so many boomers, and a smaller number are in wagons. For the last M-eek, how ever, there has been almost a continu ous stream of wagons over the Santa Fe trail, across the Cherokee st.ip, and , there are boomers all around the border.' -v i 1 , AMONG' THE KAHKOAIIS. State Kuaril of Commissioners Ordered to Produce the Kvldence. Sai.em, Sept. 21. Before Circuit Judge Boise, in chambers today, in the action brought by the Union Pacific against the state board' of railroad com missioners, the board was knocked out. The Union Pacific asked for a writ of review from the commission, giving a certified review of the information upon which it reduced the Union Pacific rates. The commission filed a motion to quash the writ. Jndge Boise over-rnled the motion, and ordered the board of com missioners to appear the first day. of the - , October term of the circuit court with the information asked. This entails a big job on the commissioners, who have, by this order, to make certified copies of the voluminous information and testi mony, covering a period of several years.
