Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune. 0., Oct. 16.—In obedience to the all of John G. Thompson, about 300 prominent Democrats met here this after- joon and held a secret meeting, at which the question of the recent defeat was brought up and discussed. Senator Thurman god John G. Thompson delivered soul-inspiring speeches, which had a tendency to enthuse those present, the majority of whom made their appearance in linen dusters and straw hats, notwithstanding the fact that the air was chilly and the wind high. Nearlyall the Democratic candidates that were defeated on Tuesday last were present, including Mr. Warner, of Silver bill fame. Mr, Warner givesasa reason for the overflow on Tues- day that there were too many votes and too much money. It appears that the discussion was mostly devoted to the cry offraud on the part-of the Republicans. Those who were present are very close-mouthed, but enough has already leaked out to say that the Democracy have adopted new tactics for the palance of the campaign, and that the work willbe pushed forward with vigor on the ftill-hunt style. Several gentlemen were asked if it would be possible to raise more funds afterthe defeat of Tuesday. Each per- son replied that they had all the money they need, and firmly delleve they will carry Ohio for Gen. Hancock. - The Republicans held their jollification to- night, and despite the cold and blustering weather made a grand display. Speeches were made by Gov. ‘Dennison, Chairman ‘Nash, and others, To the Western Associated Press. Cormacus, Q., Oct. 14—The Democratic Btate Central Committee and leading Demo- trats from this city and all: sections of Ohio, gbout 300 in number, met here to-day for tonsultation. A great number of short speeches were made. ‘The meetines were secret, all persons pres- ent being pledged to secrecy. The following resolutions were adopted: ‘That every Democrat in Ohio be con- stituted a committee to work from this day for- ward until tho close of the pollson the first Tuesday of November; Resolved, That this meet with the State Central and tees, and be contiding enough to trust them and aid them in whatever action in their judgment may scem best to undertake in this campaign. ‘That we will continue rosecuite the canvass in this State with increasvd energy. and that County Committees be requested to thoroughly organize and bring to the polls every ‘voter who will vote for Hancock and English. ‘The spirit of the meeting, it is claimed, was excellent, and developed a determination on. the part of Ohio to contest every inch of ground to give the Electoral vote of the State Hancock and English. : xecutive Commit- WASHINGTON. A MAGNIFICENT REPUBLICAN DISPLAY. > Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Wasmxoron, D. C., Oct. 16.—The Repub- licans of this District and vicinity celebrated . the sweeping victories in Ohio and Indiana bya mass-meeting to-nignt, which was pre- . teded by an imnosing torehlight procession. The demonstration was one of the largest that has been witnessed in this city for many years, The transparencies and mottoes in ths procession were admirably adapted to the present situation. The most striking feature of the procession was the Tow-Path Ciub, The members of this Club, handsome- ly uniformed, were assisting seven mules fo draw a canal-boat along the tow- path, Theseven mules were named “Bar- num,” “Ben Butler,” ‘ Forney,” “ Mullett,” “The Barrell,” and “Old 822% The Iowa Republican Club bore a banner inscribed “Iowa will give Garfield a majority of 100,000 on Nov. 2”; another transparency vead, “Hancock’s mules and corsets will be at a discount Nov. 2,” the staff of the transparency being surmounted by.a main- moth corset. The Pennsylvania Asssocia- tion wore bands upon their hats stamped “89 and carried many tariff mottoes. Among them, “No tariff for revenue only, and don’t you forget it!” ‘‘Pennsylvania’s majority 100,000.” ‘The South Carolina Club bore mottoes, “No Tissue Ballots.” The Wisconsin Club banner called for “15.000 in November, and don’t you for- steel But two days’ notice of the woes lon-had been given, yet along the line 0! march the pean ee ‘Republicans were deco- hited and illuminated.

There was a meeting of the Committee on Organization to- night, whereat the members reported that colonization schemes were on foot, and that the Democrats must make some desperate efforts to drive these people out of the city, or it would be lost to that party. Mr. Kelly was present, and made one of his rambling spéeches. ‘Mr. Augustus Schell sentina letter declining to be a candidate for Mayor.

Several members of the Cour mittee reported that a gigantic scheme by the Republicans to colonize for the purpose of voting negroes and white men had been discovered. The hotels and boarding-houses where these men are quartered were men- tioned. Resolutions were adopted providing for comprehensive precautionary meaus against illegal voting. ACKLEN. HE WITHDRAWS FROM THE CONGRESSIONAL RACE. : Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune. New Orceans, Oct. 16.—Congressman J. H. Acklen has addressed an open letter to the Democrats of the Third Congressional Dis- trict, in which he withdraws from the field and promises his support to Gen. Billen, reg- ular Democratic candidate. This action is taken on account of the certainty of the Republican. candidate’s (Darrall) election in case the Deniocratic vote was split. ‘The district is largely Republican, and Darrall will be elected any way if the Federal officials will consent to the healing of the breach made by the boli of the Beatty-Grant wing of the Kepublicans Jast summer, Beatty is the chief of the Third District Republicans, and uniess the Electoral ticket is amended by the addition of some of his wing of the party he will put onan opposition candidate and defeat Dar- VIRGINIA. THE FUNDERS’ ELECTORAL TICKET IV VIR- GINIA ORDERED TO BE WITHDRAWN BY THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE. Spectal Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune Ricimmonn, Va., Oct. 16.—The receipt of a telegram here to-day from Barnun to the Chairman of the Funders’ State Committee has caused great excitement in political circles, The telegram conveyed an order from Barnum that the Funder Hancock and English Electoral ticket be withdrawn, and that the Funders unite with the Readjusters in support of their Electoral ticket. The bitterness between the two wings of the Democratic party in Virginia is so great that neither will unite upon the ticket of the other. Itmay be safely predicted that at least one-third of the Funders will not vote at all in the event of the withdrawal of the Electoral ticket. The Republicans are jubilant over the prospects. Ricwsuonp, Va. Oct. 16—A. M. Keiley, Chairman of the State Executive Committee of the Conservative party of Virginia, pro- nounces absurd the story that there is any purpose of withdrawing the regular Con- servative Democratic Electoral ticket from the field. ‘ALARMED AT THE SITUATION. Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Wasnreron, D. C., Oct. 16.—The Virginia Bourbons represent the situation in that State as more serious for their party than the Republicans have supposed. A prumi- nent Richmond Bourbon says: “To post- “pone the consummation of some substantial arrangement by which the whole Dem-, ocratic vote may be concentrated on one ticket many days longer will be to jeopardize the Electoral vote of the State. If any fusion or compromise is contemplated, it will have to be effected within the next five days to be effective, as several of the districts are remote from tele- graph and mail communications, and thedis- semination of information in these will oc- cupy several days. Up to this time MR. BARNUM’S COMMITTEE HAVE BEEN CO- QUETTING with both Funders and Readjusters, recoz- nizing neither and remaining friendly with both. The time has come now, if the yote of Virginia is desired beyond a question, that some decided stand will have to be taken atonce. The Virginia Republicans have pre- sented before their National Committee, with the view of securing its approval, 2 plan to retire all of its aspirants for Congress in this State, except in the Norfolk and Petersbure districts, where they have a large colored vote, upon the condition that the Readjusters will haye no sppoaition. in theirs, and the Republicans will throw all of their support to the Readjuster candidates in the remain- ing seven districts. This scheme meets with the approval of most of the Republicans, who hope thereby to secure the election of Dezen- aorfin his district, and get an additional Congressinan.”” The Washington Post this morning, com- menting on the Republican proposxion to canvass the South, says: “ In Virginia there is, we regret to say, 2 possibility of Repub- Jican success.” MICHIGAN DEMOCRATS. THEY ARE COMPLETELY DEMORALIZED AND DISCOURAGED. Spectal Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, LansinxG, Mich., Oct. 10.—Since Indjana cand Ohio have spoken the Democrats here have become completely demoralized, and as they feel their rotten old ship going to pieces under their feet they are making desperate efforts to keep from going down into the Ditter waters of hopeless and entire.defeat. ‘At the beginning of the campaign some of the more blatant and overconfident Bourbons, like Messmore, of Grand Rapids, set up the shout that Michigan was doubt- ful, and for a time they actually encouraged themselves to possibility of electing perhaps a portion of their State ticket. In the hope of securing a little additional strength farmer Holloway put in the tallest kind of ‘A BID FOR THE WHISKY VOTE, pledging himself to the Liquor-Dealers’ As- sociation to favor in every Way ‘legislation favorable to their interests. But, like all the other “traditions of the Democratic party, it is proving to have been a very great mis- take, as his anti-temperance avowals are thinning out the temperance men from Democratic party ata more rapid rate a an the probibitionists can enlist them. a dreds of this class will vote for Davi a Jerome, the Republican nominee, for think that there was a bare | ins. bh Roars that he lenounced by the Liquor-Dealers’ Associ: tion. The Democrats evidently feel them- selves, politically speaking, sinking into the dopths* where [Messimnore, ino lis” Indians specches, said he hoped our lamented Zach Chandler was einployed in pumping thunder, and are grabbing at straws. Last night the Democratic leaders of the State held ‘eimai! 4 COUNCIL OF WAR atthe Lansing House to survey the disas- trous battle-fields of Indiana and Ohio, and prepare for the judgment-day which is sure to come to them, not only in Michigan, but in the entire North. There were present F. M.. Holloway, candidate for Governor: ¥, H. Thompson, candidate for Lieytenant-Governor; H. P. Henderson, candidate for Attorney-General; L. H. Ran- dall, candidate for Congress in the, Fifth District; Col. J. E. Messmore, E. ‘Chase Godwin, Gen. A. T. McReynolds, A. PB Swineford, John Fletcher, and a number of local lights. The meeting was intended to be very private and select, and all reporters were barred. Notwithstanding, your corre- spondent caught on to the result of their de- liberations, which Is substantially as follows: ‘They instructed their Committee to make OVERTURES TO THE GREENBACK PARTY, to the effect that: if they, the Greenbackers, would drop their candidate for Governor ‘and ‘Auditor-General. and agree to support the Democratic candidates for these oflices, Hol- loway and Moore, the, Democrats would sup- port the balance, of the Greenback ticket. After a solemn handshake all round the meeting broke up. It is certain that the Greenbackers will not assent to this proposi- tien. But whether they do or not Mich! is good for 30,000 plurality for the entire publican ticket. Itis reported on the street to-night, but the report is probably untrue, that the Committee are out of funds, and that on this account, and the utter hopeles- ness of the fight in this State, they have de- cided to abandon the campsign. SOUTHERN CLAIMS. HANCOCK’S LETTER BEING FIERCELY DE- NOUNCED BY THE SOUTHERN PRESS. Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune. Wasurneron, D. C., Oct. 16.—Now that the Indiana elections are over, Southern newspapers are beginning to denounce Han- cock’s Southern-claims letter, and to say that his dnnouncement that he would veto any Southern Claims bill is a piece of arrogance. it will be remembered that in the extra ses- sion fhe Demiocrats in their discussions on the veto power dwelt with special emphasis upon what they called the impudent assump- tion of an Executive to announce in advance whether or not he would veto any measure or class of mensures. Referring to this, the Columbia (S. C.) Register, just received, in discussing Hancock’s proposition to veto any claims, says: “When any claims, after the deliberate examination of the Committees of both Houses, should pass these bodies as worthy of payment, should an Executive take it upon himself to set aside as unworthy and arin ierit, we know nothing short of the wor is in PRESUMPTION to characterize such conduct. But when 2 mere candidate for office goes beyond this and promises to sit down on a whole class of claims beforehand as odious, whatever merit any individual case might preseut to the people’s representatives, and under- takes to hold the veto power as the sword of Damocles over any and alisuch claims, whether Congress, in its strictly appointed sphere of duty, should tind them of unquestionable merit or not, we are inclined to think this is arrogance as well as presumption.” It is also noteworthy that, although the Governors of Southern States indicated their approval of this Hantygk claims letter, no single De:mocratic member of Congress has dared to do it, and-it is the Congressmen and not the Governors who’ have to do with Southern claims in Congress. It is known that these Governors’ letters relative to the Southern claims were obtained simply as a iece of political clap-trap for use in the North: that they mean nothing, and that they ceftainly.do dot represent the opinion of the South on that subject.’ NOTES. HANCOCK AS AN ELECTION SUPERRVISOR. Kansas Crry, Mo., Oct. 16.—The Journal wil! publish to-morrow morning a-long in- terview with Ex-Gov. Smith, of Cameron, Mo., relating. circumstances of Gen. Han- cock’s interference with the civil authorities of the State in 1868, forcing the disbandment of the State militia and the stubstituten of the Federal military power in support of the civil authority on the day of election. Gen. Hancock was then in command of this Department, with head- quarters at Jefferson Barracks, near St. Louis, The troops were stationed by his order at points in Platte, Clay, Jackson, and Lafayette Counties. JAY GOULD. Spectal Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune. ‘Wasuinatos, D. C., Oct. 16.—Copeland, in aletterto the Star to-day, thus disposes of the story about Jay Gouldand the Democrats: “J met Jay Gould just now, and told him of the general belief that he had helped the Democrats in the October campaign on ac- count of his friendship for Hancock. He said he had done nothing at all about it. So that ought to settle the question of Gould’s alleged sudseription.” LEONARD SWETT AT AURORA. Special Dispatch to The Ohtcago Tribune. AvEoRA, Lil., Oct. 16.—Despite the inclem- ency of the weather, a large audience listened tothe Hon. Leonard Swett, of Chicago, at the City-Hall to-night.

Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, New York, Oct. 17.—The disaffection among the Irish Democrats has led the Re- publican State Committee to bring here from Indiana “Jim” Wood, the Irish miner, whose speeches in that State did so much good, Mfr. Wood was at the Committee rooms fo-night. He has not only mastered the guesses of the canvass, but he basa large und of valuable experience asa Democrat to draw upon. Mr. Wood says: “I suffered myself to be harnessed to the Democratic party long enough to do everything the party wanted iné to do. {1 generally held the impor- tant position of amember of the ‘ Rallying and Challenging Committee.’ Every Irishinan gets that. ‘The Democrats are very sure to give an Irishman ali the work to do, but it is very little else he will get from them. ‘The Trish have long enough been tovuls of the Democratic party, au Iam_s glad to say that I know of thousands of them who this year will vote for the Republican party, which has given them all the opportunities for improvement they now enjoy. The Re publican party is the true friend of the workingmen, and the Irish begin to realize the fact.” ELECTOR, WITHDRAWN. Lrrriz Rocs, Ark., Oct. 16—Owing to the doubts as to his eligi lity growing out of his membership in Legislature, the Hon. A. C.

Prince Rudolph, of Austria, has made imprudent remarks to the effect - that Russia might occupy Constantinople, if Aus- tria were to extend her sway to Salonica.

His statement betokons that an Austrian party is prepared to join honds with Russia for 8 consideration rather than help Germany to restrict Russian ambition., Anew factor is thus introduced in the Eastern question, and its first effect has been to draw Germany and France more closely toward each other, which is more important to the peace of Europe than the squabbling of the Eastern nationalitics.

GREAT BRITAIN. AN IRISH PROBLEM. Special Cable. Loxpox, Oct. .16.—The country approves the intention of the Government to prosecute the leaders of the Irish Land. League, although the result of the suits against Brennan, Davitt, and two others last spring was not encouraging, and there is little hope that an Irish jury will convict. It is, however, deemed pru- dent to tako this step before resorting to strong- er measures. Besides, the suspension of the habeas corpus would necessitate, according to the Government pledges, the reassembling of Parliament, and so demonstrative a step Is not thought necessary. OUR ELECTIONS. The English papers have not commented on the American elections with much intelligence. The Taegraph, for instance, said that. the In- diana State election lasts three weeks. English criticism has been from the free trade point of view. There is not much disappointment at the Bepublican prospects, it belng asserted that the Democrats have weakened their cause by tampering with the Protectionists and Green- back party. The Democrats, it is said, will never overcome the threatened interests by half- hearted advocacy. The English free-traders be- gin to trust little to the existing parties, and rather look for the formation of a real free trade party by the logic of facts. Hence their comparative indifference at the fall of the Dem- ocratic cause. BERNHARDT. A LITILE FRIGHTENED. ‘Spectat Cable.

BERLIN, Oct. 18.—The National Zeitung m to- day's issuc says that Prince Bismarck will main- tain the fullest right of Turkey to her National existence, provided she fulfills her treaty en- gugements. This utterance is believed to have the Chancellor’s sanction, and creates much ex- citement and discussion in political circles.. It defines clearly the policy of Germany respect- ing the ultra aggressive feeling against Turkey entertained by certain of the Powers. Germany will join with the other signatories to the Berlin Treaty in insisting that no abatement be made ‘or submitted to touching the provisions nH that ; instrument, but will net consent any policy which proposes to prevent furthe: trouble by the deposition of the Sultan, or by a dismemberment of his dominions.

PITKIN. ‘The following telegram trom the Governor of Colorado was received at the Interior Depart- ment to-day: . DENVER, Colo., Oct. 15.—The Hon. Carl Schurz, Secretary of the Interior, ‘Washington, D. C.: It is true great excitement prevails in Western Colc- rado over the circumstances connected with the kilifag of the Ute and subsequent murder of young Jackson by the Indians, Shortly after the news reached me of troubles on the reservation I appointed two . trust- worthy men to examine into all the facts of these homicides and to report the circumstances to me. ‘They have not yet reached Denver, or made their reports. There are but five persons living who were present when the Indian.was killed, four whites and one Indian.’ The statement of the four white men who were present is as follows: They say the Indian who was shot first began firing at the whites; that a white man ran behind the wagons to avoid bim, and that young Jackson, on seizing 4 rifle which was in the wagon, shot at the In- dian in self-defense. This was about half-past Tin the renner aay it was quite dark. 8 Indian | an companion rode off, and the freighters did not know he had even been wounded until the next day, when they were arrested by Agent Berry.

Young Jackson was disarmed by tho Agent, and pliced In custody of fifteen soldiers. ‘About 200 Federal soldiers, who were being moved from the reservation, were camped that night near where the prisoner was in custody. Jackson iraplared, their protection from the In- dians until be could be safely lodged in jail in Gunnison City, the county-seat, to await his ex- amination and trial. The Agent refused to al- low this protection, and permitted the detach- ment of soldiers to depart, retaining only fifteen soldiers to defend tho prevouer: ‘against the fury of over if armed In- diuns, It {3 stated the Agent said _the troops were there to protect the Indians and not the whites. Young Jackson was turned over to Cline, Hoyt, and Holmes to be taken about sixty mailes to Gunnison City, nearly halt of this dis- tance being over the reservation. Cline, Hoyt, and Holmes state that they were ambushed after ing three miles, and that Jackson was taken away by the Indians, Capt.Cline states in ex- planation of his conduct that unless the Agent had surrendered Jackson to him to be escorted by these three men to Gunnison City,the Indians would have immediately massacred the fifteen soldiers, ten or fifteen other. white men there, and Cline’s own wife, children, and grand- children. If these statements are true, there not a civilized community in the world that would not thrill with horror and indignation that a man who had been com- pelled to tuke the life of an Indtan to save his own life should be denied the protection of his Government and turned over to be tortured and killed by savages. ‘fhe people of the State de- sire peace, but they believe this tribe has alithe savage instincts of their race; that, especially since Ouray’s death, they neither fear nor re- gpect the power of the ‘General Government; and that 28 long as thoy remain in the State they are & constant menace to the safety of the white men, women, and children upon their borders.

Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, New Yor«, Uct. 16.—Detective Robert Pinker ton effected the arrest to-day of Horace Horan, alias “ Little Horace,” the greatest bank rob- ber in the United States, onu charge of grand larceny. Horan is the most accomplished crim- jnalof his class in the country, and bas been re- peatedly arrested for extensive bank and bond robberies. He was the leading spirit in the rob- bery of $250,000 worth of bonds from Nos. 49 and 51 Nagsau street two years ago,and is now a fugitive from justico in South Caro- lina, having . jumped his bail for rob- bing 8 National bank in Columbia. The present charge is that the prisoner, on June 7, stole. $7,500 In money and $56,000 in bonds from tho Middletown Sav Bank, of Middle- town, Conn. He had resided in Middletown for nearly two wecks under the name of George S. Link. After the robbery, Detective Pinkerton learned that the George 'S. Link wrs no, other than Horan, who, after bis escape from Special Officer George Wilson, of the Court of General Sessions, two years ago, left the cits, and was not heard from until last nizht, when Detective Pinkertun learned that he was about to leave this city for Philadelphia. To- day a watch was placed at the Courtlandt street and at 8 a. m. Pinkertonsaw Horan check- ferry, ing bis baggage and arrested him ona juisi- Hoa from the Governor of Connecticut. Horan Offered a desperate resistance, and, with the fasistance of an officer of Cupt.

John, alins Jack, Leonard, a notorious West Division ruftian who has served one term in Joliet and whom the police have been trying to punigh once azain forsome of his numerous crimes, {3 afugitive for whom the police are anxiously searching. John . Neary, a- machinist, 27 years of age is lying at his bome, No. 167 West Randolph street in a very precarious con- dition, the result of severe kicks in the abdo- men, inflicted by Leonard last night on the side- walk in front of # saloon atthe northeast cor ner of Union and Randolph street. Dr. Scheller, who is attending him, says he issuffering intense internal pain, and that theindications are that the bladder or some other vital organ has been ruptured, in this case death will be the certain reguit. Besides these injuries young Neary is badly injared about the chest and head. The assault was a most vicious onc, and,as Neary was slightly under the influence a eas taken his assailant, be had no chance ey ce a defense.

He was at once brought to trial upon the old charge of burz- lary. Neary, the man whom he assaulted last night, was the chief prosecuting witness. ‘Leon- ard swore to be revenged, ‘and when, last -ni ie he found Neary in the saloon, he laid in wait ‘until he emerged, and then commenced his pre- meditated assault to kill. 1 ‘Leonard is about 2% years of age, talland re built, browo hair, and hazel He is rather a gentlemanly ap) especially when dressed up. an sted Nov. 16, id His photograph is gues’ Aue at last led in eluding are confi- of a few No. 12in Volume E of Central Station.

Our people do not believe that the life of an Indian is more valuable than the life ota white man. If the killing of the Indian Jackson called for such summary action on part of the ollicers of the Government, then the persons who mur- dered Jackson Cine to be speedily arrestea and held for trial. If it was proper to take Jackson to Gunnison City for examination before a mag- istrate, itis equally proper to take to the samo place and before the same magistrate the par- ties who murdered Jackson, and their accesso- ries. The people of the State Fackson's murderers be brought to justice, whether miey be Government officers, private citizens, or Indians. If the General Govern- ment will not take measures to punish the guilty parties, then the State Courts for Gunnison County should properly investi- te the matter and issue werrants for the criminals. It wili be my duty to furnish all assistance that may be necessary to enforce the process of the courts. I trust the General Government will not use the power of the Federal army to protect the parties charged with murder from examination and trial before the courts of the county where the crime was committed. I think it would be wise for the Government to remove the Uncompahgre Utes from the places where they are now camped to some point further north. They have no houses, but siinply.live in tents which, they are jn the habit of putting up wherever Juight overtakes them during their travels. The only rond lead~ jag to Ouray, Mount Nefiies, San Stizuel, Ophir, and other scttiements in that locality, runs for about seventy milesover the Indian reservation. Yisions of the treaty, and on fecount of the conformation of the mountains is the only route by which supplies can be taken in tofeed the towns and mining-camps above mentioned. By reason of the heavy fall of snow in winter it is necessary to get these supplies during the fap mouths. At presenta lange proportion of the tribes of Uncompahgre Utes are camped at points on this road, and it is stated in the news- papers that, on account of the murder of Jack- fou, freighters aro unwilling to take In the freight necessary to feed the people of that country during the winter. inless freight can be taken in, work must be sus pended fn the mines, and the people subjected to the dangers of famine. I respectfully urge upon you the necessity of im- mediately moving this portion of the tribe tothe mouth of the Uncompahgre River, or some point on the Grand River, where they will be remote from the whites and from the road over which the white population must receive food upon which they are to subsist this winter. If this were done the excitement would in a measure abate; or, if it continued,the Indians and whites would be sufiiciently far apart to greatly lessen the danger of contlict, [have telegraphed the Sheriff of Gunnison County that, if Berry and others are arrested, he shall seo they are fully protected agalast violence. Ido not apprehend any danger to them while in custody of the offi- cers. The people of the State are law-abiding, and only desire that the question of guilt or inno- cence of these parties shall be determined by fhe courts. It is not true, as stated at the In- terior Department according to a aera tele- ‘by the Associated Press, that a large class of persons around the reservation are en- deavoring to bring about a disturbance with the Indians to prevent uny consummation of the treaty. Col. Monypenny, Mr. Menrs, Col, Bow- man, and Mr. Russell, four of the Commission- Grsuppointed to carry out that treaty, aro in the city. and three of them have been on the reservation and adjoining towns for months past. I showed them to-day the Associated Press dispatch, and asked them to name one erson that had endeavored to bring about dis- furbance or to prevent the consummation of the Ute treaty, and they all replied they did not know of any one against whom this charge could be made. While the people desired the tribe removed entirely from the State, they have not endeavored, and will not endeavor, to defeat the consummation of the treaty by any dishonorable measures. I do not see why the distst of Agent Berry on a criminal process should it in its defeat. FREDERICE W. PITKLX.

A CONFLICT DOXINEST. - Dexver, Colo., Oct. 16.—A conflict with the Utes seems imminent. Yesterday morning two compunics of military left Gunnison City for the reservation to arrest. ApreL Bers ‘and others on writs issued by the District-Attorney for Gunnison County, under orders from the Gov~ ernor, and have probably reached the reserva~ tion by thistime. Gov. Pitkin was very much surprised at this movementof the military with- out having informed him. He expressed fears that pie might not be able to cope with the Indians, and fo his judgment they should have taken at least twice as many again as they took. The United States District-Attorney this morning left forGunoison County. Itis probable he will issue writs for the arrest of the Agent and his associates, and have them examined before the United States Commissioner. Agent Berry makes a statement that it Jackson had not been delivered to the Indians the goldiers, all the whites present, and all the freihters on the road inside the reserva- tion would have been massacred. Should the, ry go on the reservation for the prisoners. there ia every danger of a conflict. LOCAL CRIME. RINTELMAN RETIRES... Although. associate counsel in his defense, Sfother Ryder maintained an arctic silence yes- terday when the case of 3ir. William Rintelman was called, but his cause was nevertheless ably pleaded by Mr. Dougherty, who did all that was necessary in the way of argument and expostu~ lation. ‘Mr. Trude was the first witness, and in this c= pacity was examined by himself in the capacity of prosecuting attorney, being thus, of course, skillfully drawn out. He submitted the affida- vitin which Kintelman set forth that he was. worth $18,000, and then added a statement that gentleman had made to him since his arrest rel- Stive to never having seen the property, etc. He then, as counsel, turned himself as witness over to Mr. Dougherty, wko cross-examined bim. with equal fire and ability. A fragment of this: cross-examination will go far to show how do- eile a witness Mr. Trude is: “Now, Mr. Trude, on your oath—your solemn oath—will you state that the spirit of Bagrossion. did not prevail from the bezinning of con" versation to the end?” “Well—no. [think it sort of rose in the middle and trickled both ways.” ++ Where was this conversation held?” “First fn Constable Hartman's room; then 1% took a change of venue over to Judge Brown's’ desk, and then, I think, was mandamused In the Clerk's apartment, and finally, if I remember right, took an appeal to the hall.” “Will you state definitly which—now, Mr. Trude, eractly which—affidavit you showed the prisoner at that time?” “Certainly; the affidavit now gingerly roostme between your thumb and forelinger, at the northwest corner of the railing of Justice Brown's desk, at or near the southwest corner of Clark and Washington streets, City of Chi- cago, County of Cook, State of Illinois, United States of America, Western Hemisphere, Solar System, Universe,—that Is, to the best my knowledge and belief.” “You can sit down, Mr. Trude.” * Mr. Trude sat down. Mr. Hartman testified to the same effect. Mr. Rintelman himsetf took the stand. and was duly sworn. He had bought forty-two lots on Wash- ington Heights in "72 for $2,000, from a Me McKnignt. He didn't remember ex- e paid the money. He never seen the lots. A man once offered him $7,000 for them. He didn’t know the man’s name. He was dead.

He considered that if Mr. Rintelman should die he might. be worth §15 ata medical college, but until that interesting catastrophe took place he didn’t think he could command $5, much less pay a $10,000 boad. ‘At6:3) Justice Brown bound Mr. Rintelman over to a] before the Criminal Court in the sum of $1,000, in default of which the capitalist saain Syent to jail, and Mother Ryder disap- Pe A JEWELRY SPECULATOR. A man claiming to be H.H. Sanford, anda nephew of Prof, Sanford, of the Chicago Uni- versity, has been swindling State street jewelers by giving bogus checks on the Illinois Trust & Savings Company for small bills of goods. Prof. Sanford repudiates him.. The fellow is said to be a blonde, about 40 years old, looks respect~ able, and is a good talker. He will doso no more, at least not for some time, ashe was captared at 8:30 lust evening by Detective Murnane in the jewelry-store known as the Diamond Palace, at ‘No. U9 Madison street. When it was reported ‘at Central Station yesterday thatsuch a swindler had been about, Detective Murnane was sent forth to visit atl retail jewelers in the heart of the city, and warn them against accepting checks in payment for goods except from per- sons whom they knew to bereliable. Mr. ©. It. P. Shurley, of No. 103 Randolph street, who made complaint, lost an $85 watch, for which Sanford fare hima worthless check. Tho watch was later in the day found in a pawnshop, where it had been sold for $3850. The detective in going the rounds ascertained that Sanford had visited a large number of stores, but in only one or two had succeeded in getting any goods. Insome they still had his worthless checks, Sanford having promised to call for tha when the check wa3 cashed at the ban¥ ‘Phis be only did, of*course, where jeweler refused to deliver goods before having the cash inhand. His operations were extended over several days. Yesterday he turned the corner of State street and visited all the jewelry stores on Madison ‘street, auch as Goodrich, J. trelita, J.B, Chambers & Co., and the Diumond Palace. Something went wrong at this latter place, an Sanford got out by requesting M. J. Driscoll, of, the store, to bave a certain article of jewelry ready for him at 8 o'clock In the evening. He no doubt expected to easily pass off one of bis checks during the business rush at that time. He called ag he sald he would, and fn the meantime Detective Murnane bad caught up with him and was ying io wait. At Central Station the prisoner would have little or nothing to say, and told the police they would shortly find out that they had acted a little hasty in causing bis urrest, Atthe Armory the prisoner talked rather freely. He is a tall, well-built, fine looking fellow of about 2 years of age, and though now shabby genteel in pere sonal appearance, yet shows signs of education and cultivation. Regarding the places he has visited, ie he bas obtained, or the claims of relationship between himself and Prof. Sanford and others, he polite- ly refuses to talk. He claims to have been & resident of tho city for some time, but was not in business. and refuses to say what he did for 2 living. There is money, be s: to his credit in the Hlinois Trust & Savings Bank, and he does not believe that any one inthe bank has ever safd to the contrary. How much money he bas - there he would not explain, but subsequently he ventilated his ideas of wrong by saying it was his bellef that a man could not be legally held for obtulning goods by false a: pretenses it he only had 15 cents to bis credit in the bank upon which he drew the check.
