commanding the TJ. S. steamer Wachu
setts, stationed at Sitka, Alaska, preferred

Washington, Oct. 8. From the statistics
prepared by Inspector General of Steam Ves
sels Dumont, for the annual report, it appears
there were 51 1" steim vessels in service dur
ing the fiscal year 1882, with a total tonnage
of 1,278,564 and with 20,467 licensed officers
During that period 338 vessels were placed in
service, against 243 in the previous fiscal year,
an increase of tonnage for ihe year of 7456,
against 82,195 the year previous. The figures
indicate a considerable increase in the number
of new vessels, hut the decreased tonnage
shows they are mostly small sized, snd a no
ticeable circumstanc i is the small increase of
traveling and miscellaneous expenses, which
are but $200 in excess ol the expenses for the
year 1881.

Dishonest Agent. . ,
Tcscos. Oct. 8. Chas. Howler, interpreter
of the San Carlos agency for the past ten
years, in an interview with a Star reporter,
says that the origin of the dissatisfaction
among the Indians is caused by the conduct of
Indian Agent Tiffany, who, instead of giviug
rations to tho Indians, sold them to traders.
Latt season Hnsaler waa instructed, by Tiffany
to at ti the White Mountain Indians that
tne proceeds ol their allowance would b
used to purchase plow, wagons, etc.; but
failing to receive them caused much diisatis
f action.
A man waa killed last May, and the report
was given out that the destroying angels of
the Mormons did the work. Hustler tt.ted
the murder was committed by six White
Mountain Apaches, four oi whom acknowl
edged the affair to him recently, and said they
covered the body by the advice of a white
man so aa to guard the Indiana from sus
picion, who never bury their victims. He
states these Indians have been engaged largely
in stealing stock for two years in Southern
Arizona and Boron. These facta were well
known to the agent. Hustler state the prin
cipal raiding, killing and plundering of the
reservation Apiclies was planned by one or
two wiiUs. His relations wi'.n'the agency as
interpreter compelled his secrecy, aa Tiffuiy
ai always sc'iemihg to protest bis wards, no
matter of what they were guilty. He has re
lated a 'tite of things at San Carlos under
Agent Tiffany that is fearful. The facts
which art in possesion of the proper authori
ties cai-not at present be given to tho public,
until parties who have been in complicity with
the Apach s and white thieves are taken into
custody.
Clne-to Ihe Dublin Trnxedj.
Dublin, Oct. 7. The weapons used by the
murderers of Lord Cavendish and Under Sec
rotary Burke were found concealed in the
ra'ters of the stables in the Tear of the house
belonging to the min recently sentenced to
pnal servitude for intimidating Mrs. Kennys,
widow of the man murdered in Seville place
because he was snspected of giving informa
tion oncerning the m.'.rJers. It is alleged
that Kenny was the driver of the car in which
the assassins rode on the night of the mnrder.
The weipons found were four knives, nine
inches long, with blades three and one fourth
inches wide. They are quite new and very
sharp, and are evidently surgical dissecting
knives. Tnere was a discoloration on them
which upon chomical analysis was proven to
have been made by human blood. It is
hoped the murderers will be captured. Mean
while the authorities observe the strictest
silenco.
The New York Public, speaking of the
the business outlook for the past week, sas s
The exchanges for the past week an affected
by the suspeusl n of business on the 26th nf
September, 1881, and by the general prostra
tion of business at the time of the death of
tne President. Ordinary comparisons are
therefore of to service, and the best that can
be said is the decrease in the volume of busi
ness has not been very large. That there has
been some decrease ia undeniable, for ex
changes outside of New York show a decrease
for the month, and the increase for the lsst
week is decidedly less than should appear,
with six working days this year against five
in 1881. To put it briefly, the month has njt
been one of satisfactory returns and yet the
cc mparison is particularly difficult for the
reason already mentioned. During nearly the
whole of the month last year business was
disordered and interrupted, and it ia not pos
sible to make a comparison that will have
more than suppositions or experimental value.
Movement in produce markets, duiinj the
past month have been generally in the direc
tion of liquidation, and yet corners in grain
at Chicago and in cotton at New Orleans have
had a powerful influence. So far as compari
son of exchanges warrants any opinion it
tends to the belief that business neither is as
healthy nor as active as it was a year ago,
and this not only because of the decline in the
volume of payments, but because of their
distribution at different cities. But the specu
lative operations this year have been unusually
large and tend to blind the eye-tooth of ex
changes. A Tactile Coast Steamship Line.
New York, Oct. 9. Relerence was mate a
few weeks since of a proposed line of auxiliary
freight steamers between this port aud San
Francisco. At the same time w w given a de
scription of vessels and time expected to be
muie. The project has found favor w ith all
California mercnants to whom it. has beon
broached, so much so in fact, that the pro
jectors have determined to lay the matter be
fore the merchants of San Francisco and ask
their aid in forming a company for this pu--pose.
Mr. Dearborn, of tlie firm of Van
Vleck 4 Co. of this city, and Capt. G iss,
Sawyer & Packard, the celnhrited ship build
er of Maine, have gone to San Frmcisoi, and
upou arrival will call upon and explain tn the
merchants the advantages that must neces
sarily accrue by the establishment of such
lines. The idea of the projectors is t form a
line of steamers that will be owned and con
trolled by merchants themselves, and who
will feel obliged to' patronize it as against
overland railroads, whose encroachment upon
the rights of the merchants ot California are
beginning to be severely felt; and it is thought
by the projectors that this will be an entering
wedge in breaking up the special con'raota.
The matter now lays with the merchants of
California, who are aaked to form a company
that cai.hot be controlled by Pacifio railnads,
and thus assist in ridding themselves of what
they feel to.be tne greatest monopoly tint
ever existed in'this country.
Affair In Spain.
Madrid, Oct. 7 The conservative pipers

efforts of Marshal Serrano, the opposition
leader, to form the advanced liberal party,

of 1869 re-established they will accept it,

of the tariff that shall reduce taxation to the

Mil, and denounces both Republican Houses
of Congress for the passage of such infamous
legislation over the President' veto; denounco
the declaration of the Republican party plat
form favoring the submission t6 the people nf
the proposed amendment to constitution as
evasive and cowardly: recognizing the evils
arising from the abuse of intoxicating liquors
ana believes Urn may be moit enectually
checked by the force of enlightened publio
opinion; they may be pirtUlly restored by
wist legislation, but such legislation should
not be so oppressive or so impracticable in its
firovisioo as to infringe on personal rights and
ibertiea of ciliz-ns, and should not be midea
psrtisin question; believes the question of po
lice regulation, relative to the sale of intoxi
cating liquors, in tho State constitution to be
opposed to the plainest principles of sound
government; denonnce the squander of gov
ernment lands ana gilts to railroad corpora
tions; protection of native and foreign born
c;tizens while abroad, and .condemn the use
of convict labor to the exclusion of free labor.

go Henrv Villard. iranerm manager of the
Northern Pac.fic Rsilroad, was lu Rtclne, and ;
was a young mm struggling with fortune, and j
not very successfully engsg-d in a newspaper '
enterprise.. To obtain money to buy printing
material be gave his note for three hundred
dollar, which he borrowel with the endorse
ment of Sam'l Ritchie, a member of the Ra
cine bar. Villard was unable to meet this
obligation, anl Ritchie was obliged to pay it.
After the lapse of a quarter century, and only
a few c'ava ago,, Ritchie went to Villard, told
him he held the note and s'atrd he would sur
render it for five hundred dollars, although
the principal and a crued interest would to-
f ether largely exceed that amount. To-day
Ir. Ritchie was surprised, and delighted to
receive from Mr. Villard a certified check for
one thousand dollars enclosed in a letter, say
ing that twenty years ao when he (Villard)
was in Europe, he sent money to a relative
sufficient to discharge all debts, and supposed
this had been included. He was surprised to

Importance or the Cattle Trade.
Chicago, Oct. 10. A TVionne editorial
says some Idea of the importance to Chicago,
and the consuming markets of the world at
large, of the cattle trade, may be gained
from the fact that since May 1st, beginning
of the season, there have been received at the
Union stock yards in this city four hundred
thousand head. Of this number two hundre 1
and seventy thousand were Texas through
cattle; the remainder, northern range cattle.
Colorado, Wyomiug, Montana and Nebraska
ae the largest contributors, though Utah,
Dakta, Oregon aud Indian Territory fur
nished their quota. By the end of Novem
ber, which closes the season. Chicago will
not have received less than five- hundred
thousand head of Texas and northern range
cattle, which is about one-thi-d of our total
annual receipts. The bulk of these are put
into cars by local packers and shipped to all
pirts of the world. The best qualities are
taken by dressed beef shippers and help to
supply the Ne York, Now England an I
southern markets.

cratio State committee. Gen. Buttler expresses
himself in favor of civil service reform, de
clares against taxation of necessarita of, life
and say the hlghe-t duties riionld be laid
upon luxuries.
He also has written a lotter to the Green
back committee which ayi "I can congrat
ulate you that hereafter you may well lay
aside the word greenback as a designation of
your party, unless you keep it in remembrance
bf the fact that you took it upon you when
conferred by your enemies as a title of re-
S roach. In behalf of greenback or legal ten
er your labors are done and the misrion of
your party is as completely full timed as Is the
mission of tha Republican party, which was
the abolition of slavery. The greenback is
uow the money of the United States, and is
the equal of go'd and silver." The commit
tee is then offered the same expression of
view in the letter to the Democrats. The
rest of the communication assures Ihem of his
devotion to the interests of the laboring peo
ple. Stale Kleetlon.
