The JTOonrotg JlarJ WILMINGTON, N. C. Sunday Morning, Oct. 25, 1891 BATTLE WITH INDIANS. Canadian Police Have a Fight with Hos , " tiles on the Boundary line. By Telegraph to the Moraine Star. Denver, Col., October 24. A special to the. News from Assinebone. Mont., says: Word has been received here of a battle which took place Thursday be tween a band of Blood Indians and a force of Canadian mountain police. The fight took place just across the interna tional boundary' line, not over fifty miles from this place. The Blood Indians, who are old-ttme enemies of the police, made a raid on a band of horses belong ing to the latter a few days ago. and ran off with nearly all of them. Ten of the police started in pursuit, and coming upon them suddenly yesterday, both, sides commenced firing, and the first fire killed one policeman and two In dians, and several were wounded on bo:h sides. News was brought in by a Blackfoot who witnessed the fight. The .u. no cmII in nrntrrpss when he left. Col. Bates, commander at Fort Assinebone. has ordered a troop of cavalry to take a station at Blackfoot agency, as a precautionary measure to restrain Indians at that agency from at tempting any part in the disturbance. CHICAGO MARKET REVIEW. Fluctuations in Prices of Grain and Provisions. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Chicago. October 24. Wheat was fluctuating and somewhat weak at times to-day, as trade was mostly local. It presented rather a firm front most of the day. but held very steady, general fluctuations covering a range of only about ic with great bulk of trade at 95cc. Business was very slack as a rule, but despite this a steady, strong feeling was maintained most of the day. Com showed a little more strength early in the session and made some ad vance, May getting most benefit with the "year" next in line, but offerings were liberal, and there was some de cline. A steady quiet feeling ruled during the las: hou-, with November around 50350c, and May 42c. Oats startrd rather firm. November selling from 30c to SOJc.and May 31c up to 32c, but the demand was sluggish, export business light, and the feeling weakened some during the last hour. Hog products were easy early in the session, but finally turned strong, but the strength was not all held.' STRIKERS' TROUBLES. Conflicts With Non-Union Men at Iron Works in St. Louis. By Telegraph to the Morn in ft Star. C"-, t r nt i i has been engendered between strikers at the Neidinghouse Mill and men who have taken their places, but the first outbreak since the inauguration of the strike in June last took place Thursday night, when James Rcjdgers, Secretary of Ivory Lodge. Amalgamated Associa tion of Iron and Steel Workers, was shot in the thigh by Joseph Raeders, one of the non-union men. The affair took place in front of Rodgers' home at 9 o'clock Thursday night and has only just come to light. The wound is serious. Strikers claim that a'U of the men now at work in the mill are armed with pistols, frequently threatening to use them, and that only on last Sunday one man was arrested in Broadway while flourishing a weapon. CHINESE 7mM GRANTS. Ten Thousand at Vancouver Seeking an Entrance Into the United States. Bv Telegraph to the Morning Star. Chicago, Oct. 24. Treasury agent Scanlan to-day says he has received ad vices from his inspectors who are now watching the Canadian border, to the effect that there are 10.000 Celestials in Vancouver &nd along tbe line of the Canadian Pacific, who are suffering for want of food. '"Chinamen in unprece dented numbers are being landed at Vancouver," said Scanlan, "and they are unable to obtain employment or food. The vast number of arrivals I believe is the result of notice being spread among the Chinese by influen tial Chinamen that it is very easy to get into the United States. I believe also the Canadian Government is assisting the Celestials into this country in orfler to get $50 per head they are compelled to pay." COTTON. Total Visible Supply, Receipts and Crop in.

The Cowardly and Unprovoked Assault Inspired by Hatred for the United States Tho Police Aided the Mob-Mo Chilians Arrested. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Washington. October 24. Secretary Tracy said this morning that further study of the cypher dispatch received from Capt. Schley, of the Baltimore, Thursday, showed that in addition to killing one man and seriously wounding six others, thirty-five other Ameri can seamen were arrested and detained by the Chilian authorities at the same time, and that they were afterwards "ex amined and dismissed, as there was no proof that they had been guilty of any misbehavior. This confirms Captain Schley's other statement that the Ameri cans were unarmed, sober and well-behaved at the time of the trouble, and also indicates that at least forty men out of the Baltimore's contingent of two hundred and seventy-five were objects of the rage of the Chilian mob. It also appears now that up to the date of Capt. Schley's report the Chilian au thorities had taken no steps to arrest and punish any of the Chilians responsi ble for the affair. An official, thoroughly familiar with all the facts in the possession of the government, pointed out this morning that it was altogether different in its material features from the Italian affair at New Orleans. The men in one case being practically citizens of the United States, while in the other they wore the TJ. S. uniform and were attacked for that reason. He said it was a deliberate insult to the American flag. Secretary Tracy saw the President about the matter to-day. The Admin istration regards the situation as seri ous, and as more than a simple street row. Washington, Oct. 24. Further and persistent inquiry of officers of the gov ernment in regard to the Valparaiso incident shows conclusively that the Ad ministration does not regard it as a simple street row for which the Chilian Government cannot be held account able, but as an insult to the honor and flag of the United States, calling for most vigorous diplomatic treatment. The official report of the occurrence made by Capt. Schley, of the Balti more, after careful investigation of all the surrounding circumstances, shows clearly not only that the assault upon the American sailors was cowardly an d'un provoked, but that it was inspired purely by hatred for the uni form they wore and the country it re presented; or, in other words, that it was not an attack on them as individu als, but as representatives of the United States. The report also indicates that the lo cal police, instead of protecting Ameri cans from the violence of the, mob. in several instances assisted in the on slaught. This, the report says, is de monstrated by the fact that several of the sailors were wounded by bayonets such as are usually carried by the Chil ian police. The fact that the only per sons arrested were thirty-five Ameri can sailors who had escaped injury at the hands of the mob, strengthens the view that the assault was intended as an insultio the United States. Information at hand shows that so far none of the Chilians concerned in the attack have been arrested and that so far as known no steps have been taken to punish them in any way tor their action. The authorities at Washington are very indignant at the apparent indiffer ence displayed by the Chilian Govern mentnd the Minister has been instruct", ed to take prompt and vigorous meas ures to secure proper reparation. He has been fully advised of the position of this Government in the matter, and has been instructed to acquaint the Chilian Government therewith, in the hope that the matter may be amiacably adjusted without detriment to the honor of either country. It is understood that the President insists upon proper redress for the sup posed insult to our National honor and that unless it is given within reasonable time Minister Egan will be recalled and all diplomatic relations with Chili sus pended. Secretary Tracy said this afternoon that no more vessels had been ordered to Chili and that he did not know that any would be sent. It would seem, therefore, that the Government does not care to make any belligerent demon stration towards Chili, but prefers for the present to show its displeasure and possible resentment through diplomatic channels. Specific instructions as to his course were cabled to Minister Egan yesterday. COTTON FUTURES. The New York Futures Market Yesterday By Telegraph to the Morning Star. New York, October 24. The Sun's cotton circular says: Cotton futures were variable; opened lower, further declined, quickly rallied, further improved, and closed quiet but firm at 1 to. 3 points advance from yes terday's closing prices. Liverpool dis appointed our bulls and scared some of the outsiders, who have been buyers re cently. Besides the visible supply be gins to loom up uncomfortably large, being more than 800,000 bales in excess of last year. Again some would-be ex perts in such matters began to put out increased estimates of the current crop. But at 8.49c for January the decline was checked. Operators began to exchange views regarding the effect of a smaller movement of the crop. The bears began to buy to cover contracts, and values made a recovery of about 8 points from the lowest figures of the morning, with an inclination among the bulls to look for something of a bulge on Monday "morning, unless Liverpool shall again disappoint them. There were abundant frost accounts, but the movement of the crop now absorbs all other questions. Letters from interior towns indicate smaller figures at once. Spot cotton was quiet. Secretary Blaine returned to Wash ington at 4.05 yesterday afternoon. The Secretary and his party occupied seats in a car at the rear of the train. Mrs. Blaine took the Secretary's arm and they walked the entire length of the platform, and through the station to thrir carriage. Secretary Blaine ap peared somewhat fatigued. FOREIGN NEWS. The Pope and the Keoent Manifestations at Home Great Devastation by Floods in France and Provinces of Spain Gov ernment Measures for Relief of Famine Sufferers. Bv Cable to the Morning Star. Rome. Oct. 24. The Pope has writ ten a letter to the Archbishop of Aix, the prelate who is to be prosecuted by the French Government for disregard ing the circular of M. Fallieries, Minis ter of Public Worship, enjoining the Archbishops of France not to leave their dioceses without the consent of the Government; an order which was issued as the result of the recent popular manifestations at Rome against French pilgrims who were said to have behaved in a reprehensible manner at the Pan theon. In this letter the Pope says that he deplores the fact "that the Koman rioters were allowed to indulge with im punity in every kind of license, pro faning the church, insulting the Pontiff and maltreating pilgrims." The Pope adds that he hopes that these incidents willnot lead to something "more calami tous and lamentable." The Pope also speaks in most bitter terms of the treatment received by the pilgrims during their visit to this city. He says. "Neither theslaws of hospitality nor their innocence shielded them from being treated like enemies. After these events which have so seriously impaired the ancient reputation of Italians for courtesy and urbanity, it is evident that the hatred of our adversaries increases daily. Whatever the nature of the hypo critical devices employed, the sad na ture of the projects solely formed against us is increasingly apparent. You, rev erend brother, will continue to fight with us." Madrid, Oct. 24. Floods continue to prevail in Granada and Almeria, and several villages have been almost en tirely destroyed. A violent storm is prevailing on the Cantabrian coast and a number of wrecks have occurred. Paris, Oct. 24. The Rhone, after reaching twenty-one feet above low water mark, is now slowly subsiding, but the weather remains threatening.

Supplying of food to the inhabitants of these inundated villages and postal service have to be performed by means of boats. St. Petersburg, October 24. The Novoe I rremya announces that the Rus sian Government is about to issue an order prohibiting Jews from entering contracts to -supply the government with spiritous liquors or to manufacture or sell spirituous liquors except for ex port. Official announcement is made that owing to government measures winter sowing of grain in the famine stricken district has been effected to such ex tent that there has been but little di minution in the former area. In many provinces, it is added, summer seeds have been bought with State laws and storehouses are to be established in dis tressed districts so that peasants can buy corn at less than the original price. In addition, cattle of peasants are allowed to pasture on State land, and finally viovernment relief works will be greatly increased in number and in capacity so as to give employment to as many of the famine suffering people as possible. Already 31,000.000 roubles have been expended in eighteen provinces upon forest labor alone. London, October 24. The flooded districts of England show no signs of improvement. Around Bedford is a huge lake, and parts of the town itself arc inundated. The Thames, in upper parts of that river, has risen two and a half feet during the night. . St. Petersburg, October 24. The police have given notice to bankers that no dealings with or through the house of the Rothschilds will be permitted in Russia. Bankers corresponding with the Rothschilds in Paris, London, or elsewhere, must seek new correspon dents. The Russian Government, is said to feel deeply irritated at the Rothschilds on account of their opposition to the recent loan, which was successfully ne gotiated without their assistance.

Before final adjournment last night the following resolutions were adopted by the State Farmers Alliance, on recommendation of the Committee on Transportation ; First, That we approve of the Inter State Commerce Commission, because it affords the only means of relief, for just and equitable transportation rates on our products grown and shipped at non-com rietr.ive points. Second, That we call upon our mem bers of Congress to sustain the hands of the commissioners by passing such addi tional legislation as will give them au thority to require transportation lines to make through rates on products going out of one State into another; also, to use all efforts to so amend the constitu tion and laws of the United States as to give greater dignity and respect to the decisions of the Commission by making them final, and not subject to revision by other courts.
