the past year over $200,000 was
saved on postal card contracts
The c rtls, though inferior at first,
were qu ckly brought up to the re
quired etauuartl. tour luindred
thousand dollars were saved in
st Minted envelope contracts, and
$2 0,000 on certain mail carrying.
At the same time mail routes have
Uf n extended over almost two
million miles of railway, steam
lioat and stage lines. '1 he gross
revenue is nearly f 5,000.000 lurei
than ever ln-fore. Almost lite
thousand new postotlu-es, more'
than in any one year liefore, have
been established, star route mile
age has lieen increased over five
million miles, and railroad mile
age over eleven minions, uonf
cerning the telegraph scheme, the
postmaster-general says, the swift
est mail is not fast enough ii
these days for all the needs of
commerce and special correspond
ence. The public imperatively
demand cheaper telegraphy and
postal rates, and the atal depart
ment can supply it at less cost
than any cororation.
Under the head of a "New plan
for postal savings banks" the re
port recommends that the post
oHice department be authorized
for the establishment of postal
savings banks under ths regula
tions formulated by the postmas-ler-general,
these to be located in
states having no laws - regulating
savings banks, or in. any other
state upon a petition of a consid
erable number of residents in any
one locality, and not more nuiuef-ou.-ly
than one postoffice for every
ten miles of atea, the interest

the treasury at the beginning ol
earli year unl to 1k '.u-bu ,i

rate paid by deiiositors by private

postmasters removed during the
past two years and 2i,tiH) ap
pointed during the same time.
He favors, wherever practicable,
one-story, inexpensive building
for pusJotlices, and says to move
out of a $000 rented room, safe
and ample for postal business, into
a $100,000. building, where the
janitor alone gets more salary
than the rent ot the former place,
cannot he justified on any business
principle.
Regarding reduced pottage the
postmaster-general says, in part :
In point of fact there is a clear
gain of nearly $30,000,000 from
letter postage. This large profit
with the annual deficit (which
last year amounted to $5,786,300)
is all swallowed up by losses on
other classes of mail matter car
ried at less than the cost of distri
bution and handling. The
amount received from letter post
age la- t year whs about $33,000,
000. A ibdiitiioii to a one cent
rate would brim; this down to
$1!)000,0 0. The deficiency for
ttie current year is almut $4,500,
000, which would make the total
deficiency $23,.r00,000. This de
ficiency "would be reduced by the
natural increase of business due
to the stimulus of the low rate,
tuia by the completion of pending
legislation to collect proper post
age from cample copies of so
called newspapers and from paper
covered books.
The revenues of the department
for the ii-cal year are 0,ST)8,78.' :
expenditures and liabilities, $00,

year, therefore, is $r,781300.
THE GHOST DANCES.
Atirajihlc Description of the In.
Hans War Antics.
The followinggraphic description
of the Indian craze that is canting
so much trouble in given by the
wife of the postmaster at I'ine
Ridge agency, whos husband sent
her out for safety some two weecs
ago : l he ghost lances have been
in progress lor some time. The
first the agent learned of them was
last Augntt when acrowd of Indians
left the reservation to hold, as they
iai'l, a council, and when the po
lice found them they were encngea
in the dance. Sin -e then they have
been holding them regularly. One
ghost dance that I saw was partici
pated ;n by 480 Indians, in pre
paring for the dance they cut the
tallest tree they can find, and hav
ing dragged it to a level piece ot
prairie set it up in the ground.
Under this tree four of their head
men stand. Tbe others form a
circle and begin to go around and
aiounu the tree. They begin on
Friday afternoon. It .is kept up
Satin day and Sunday, until sun
down. During thia time they do
not eat nor drink. They keep
going round in one direction until
they become so dizzy that they
can scarcely stand ; then torn and
go in the other direction, and keep
r. . - . -
it, up until inev swoon irom ex
naustion
to
they think they see and talk with
tbe new Christ. When thev main
Tv""a) mey leu ineur ex
t"" m uie iour wise men
under the tree. All their tales end
with the eme story about the two
uiuuuHuns inai are to belch forth
mua ana Dury the white man, and
me return of good old Indian
times. They lose all of their senses
in the dance. They think they are
BuiuiuiB. aome gei uown on all
fours and bob about like bufTalna
When they cannot lose their senses
from exhaustion thev butt their
head together beat them upon the
kCround, and do any thimz to heeome
Unsensible, so that they xnay be
tranerea into me pretence f tne
new Christ. -
"une poor lnaian, when he re
covered his senses, said that Christ
had told him lie mast return to
earth, because he had not brought
with him his wife and child. Ilia
child had died, two years before
ind the way the poor fellow cried
was the most heartrending thing I
ever saw. At the end of the dance
fiey have a grand feast, the revel
lasting all Sunday night. Thev
kill several steers, and eat tneni
raw, drink and gorge themselves
to make up for their fast. The
arrival of the troops there will
make the Indians much worse, and
they will surely tight. They have
said all along that nothing should
iirerfk up the ghost dance, even if
they were ah killed. But then, if
they should have been allowed to
continue, I think they would have
gone crazy, so they would have
taken to the warpath anyway.
At last Friday's dance one of the
braves was to go into a trance and
remain in this condition fours days.
At the close of this peiiod he was
to come to life as a buffalo. He
would still have the form of a man,
hut he would still be a bullalo.
They were then to kill the buflalo
and every Indian who did not eat
a piece of h m was to become a dog.
The man who was to become a
buffalo was perfectly willing and 1
suppose that they have killed and
eaten him by this time.
If the Government just lets them
alone, there will be no need of
troops; they will kill themselves
dancing. Seven or eight of them
have died as a result of one dance
near Wounded Knee. They are
now dancing on a creek about live
miles south of Wounded Knee,
aud dancing with all their aims,
Every Iruliiau. Una about fHE adah
made out of round stones twisted
into rawhide. They throw these
around during the dance, etrew the
ground with them and beat their
heads against them. The agent
and his Indian police cannot con
trol them and it was necessary to
have the troops on the ground."

unanimous conclusion that the po
sition was such as to render abso

had been stolen by a- band of 200
Indians that had deserted from
Rosebud a few hours before and
rushed off io join ISOOother Indian
deserters, and are now ouly fifteen
miles northeast of the Pine Judge

families were missing they mmed-
lately set out in pursuit of the

give up the families. The police
men begged and entreated the
deserters to give them back their
wives and children, but only got
cursed and threats of their lives.
Before they got away from the
band members of the latter said :
"Go tell the soldiers at Pine
Ridge we are part of 1800 other
Rosebud Indians now near Pine
Ridge, and from now on we are
going to kill every wnue person
we meet, also soldiers. We are
ready for them."

" I had the plasure of witnessing
a nergo execution once," said tv
J. Glave at the Sherman House
yesterday. Mr.Qlave has just re
turned from an Alaskan trip
He says that he was in the
Congo country with Stanley. "I
had the plesaure of seeing this
execution and knowing that 1
wasn't strong enough to stop it.
I was allowed to witness it only on
he condition that I and mv com
panion should have shot the chief
and the executioner. Afterwards
did have forces t nough to prevent
it, and lor two years t heie weren't
auy wanton killings. The slaugh
ter is going merrily on. Soft words
won't stop it. ' It takes something
more than that to put the fearot
God into tbe blacks. But I am
drifting away from my story. Some
old woman of influence hud died
and accordingly, to celebrate the
occasion, a slave ha I to be
sacrificed. He was lashed fast in
a kind of a seat and a pliant stem
about fifteen feet long stiuk into
ahe ground near him. The top of
it was bent over and tied fast to
his head, so that his neck was as
taut as a fidle-tring. That was
tbe first time I had seen them use
one of their soft iron knives, and
I expected to see the poor fellow's
neck haggled into rags, but I heard
only a click when it struck the
bones of the spinal . column, and
the man's head shot away like a
pebble in a sling.: A fountain of
blood spurted from bis neck, and
the body worked and twitched ex
actly as a chicken, does when its
head is cut off. The head when
picked up was chattering its jaws
and rolling its eyes. . .
"It's awful, tbe amount of kill
ing that goes on in Africa. A
tribe will make op a party and go
out to make captives ia ao adjoin
ing village. They wait until after
night and then fire upon the vil
lage until its defenders are killed.
They take the rest of the folks and
make Blaves of them. Some are
killed for the mere fun of killing
them, some are slaughtered to be
eaten, some for arifW n.i
others die from cruel treatment.
.toout uve out ot every stxear-
tives die by violence. As a conse
quence interior Africa is being
rapidly depopulated. ' One may go
for hundreds of aailes and not .see

could swim began jumping into
the r vsr. and before tiie boat was
within 100 yards of tbe bank the
water around her was black - with
struggling men. The officers of
tbe boat stood to their posts and

to stay there. All on board were
compelled to jump for their livea.

lite-preservers and it is belieted
that all these who waited until
the last minute to iumn. eat aafelw
to the shore. Lucy Hill, the first
chambermaid, iumoed from the
caDin oecK and broke ber leg.
