The principal discussion was over the right- of-way through the lower end of Deadwood. The B. & M. owns the land, and offered the Elkhorn a right-of-way 1,200 feet long and hty feet wide, facing on Main_street, for 12,000, Tha Elkhorn offered #5,000. The B. & M. then, in order to check any legal proceedings, made a proposition that each road sclect one man and that these two men select o third uninterested Deadwood to appraise the land for a right-of- way and abide by their judgment. The Elihorn ignored the proposition and there the matter rests.

A Lively Contest for the Quartermaster Generalship of the Army. GENERAL TOMPKINS LEADS IN THE RACE. The Senate Committee on Finance Decides Against Increasing the Duty on Imported Tobacco Used for Wrappers. 513 FounrtrENTI STRERT, WasiiNato, D. C., June 12. The contest over the appointment of the quartermaster general of the army is becom- ing very active and interesting. General Halibird, the present quartermaster general, retires June 16, and it will be necessary to fill acancy as soon thereafter as possible. | Tompkins, the assistant quarter- ter gencral, who is well known in Chi- cago and the west generally for his long ser- vice thers, stands at the head of the list and is the natural and lincal successor, although some youniger officers of lower rank are press- ing their claims with great persistence. Un- fortunately for General Tompkins Meis a democrat, although he is not a politician and has never attended a political meeting in his life, Onceonly has he voted, and that was for General Hancock, a fellow army ofticer, in 1850, General Tompkins is the son of Danlel Tompkins, formerly senator from New York and at one time e president of the United States, and his democracy is inherited rather thi rquired. Some of the opponents of General Tompkins are useing against him an incident in his experience that occurred many years ago, which, although it resulted in a court-martial and a reprimand, did not injure him in the least in the cstimation of his superior and fellow officers, 1t occurred in Arizona twenty years ago. At that time the of the army were given specific allowances for various expenditures it was necessary for them to muke. They had so much allowed them for the purchase of hay, so much for fuel, so much for ' lumber, so much for repairs, cte. It so happened that during the winter of 1871, which was unusually cold and severe, the fuel of the troops at a certain post was ex- hausted early iu the scason. The mails wero the telegraph wires were down, anud ral Tompkins appealed repeatedly to the quartermaster general at Washington for further allowances. No attention was paid to his request, whereupon he cut the red tape and spent. some of his hay money for fuel, but the mistake in the trinsaction was that the citizens of whom it was purchased re- ceipted for hay when they had furnished wood. A court-martial was ordered, which reprimanded him for the technical violation of the regulations of the service, but found that the offense was committed for the best interests of the troops. General Crook was in command of the department g that time and it was he who called the court, and one of the last acts of his life was to WasmiNetox Bunesu Tae Ovana Bee, } write a letter to General Tompkins saying that i his wish but his duty that had led him to order this court and that he believed General Tompkins to have been actuated only by a desire to promote the fort of his® troops, and that he was guilty only of cutting the red tape, Cleneral Tompkins is recommended for the appointment, by General Schofield and ¢ eral Howard and has their active assistance There is also on record in his interes strong endorsements from General Sk and General Crook, which cannot be without their effect. DECIDED AGAINST AN INCREASE. The senate committee on_finance has de- cided against an inerease of the duty on im- ported tobaceo used for wrappers, which is u matter of great importance to the cigar man- ufacturers of the west. The tobacco grow of Counceticut, Pennsylvani Kentucky, Wisconsin and other states suc ceeded in inducing the house committee on ways and means to nearly double the duty on Sumatra tobacco, but the increase has been vigorausly resisted by the manufacturcrs. The senate committee has decided to leave the duty as it is. CARING FOR THE COUNTRY'S DEFENDERS, A statement was mado on the floor of the house this afternoon which showed that the republicans have taken unexceptionable and unequalled care of the union_ soldicrs, their widows and orphans. Colonel Henderson of Towa, from the committee o appropriations, reported a bill to make_ good the second pen: sion deficiency which has_arisen since last December. The first deficiency amounted to about §22,000,000, - The one asked for today amounted to 3,700,000 and is to meet the de- ficiency in the payment of pension certificutes which have accumulated at the various agen- cies throughout the country. He stated that the deficiency was due to the very large num- ber of original pensions recently allowed and the increases which were not anticipatea; that a large number of original pensions were allowed during the past six months which aggregate from $12,000 to £16,000 each, and that the average first payment of each of the oviginal pensions during the past six months was $480, & much larger average than ever before. The appropriations during this session of congress for pensions, bounty, ar- tificial limbs, back pay and othier claims of soldicrs for” services' in the late war aggre- gated 164,115,884, over one-third of the esti mated gross receipts of the government for the fiseal year 1801, Tho estimated receipts for the next fiscal year are $450,414,837. Colonel Henderson thought that when the federal government was paying out to the soldiers more than one-third of its gross rov- enues there wus no possible criticism that could be made against_the republican party for not caring for the defenders of the country. SENATOR EVAKTS FOR -FREE COINAG Senator Evarts has_been suspecte leaning towards the principle of fry of silver, but today ho came out favor of it, following in_the lead of of a o colnage boldly in Senator Cameron, who announced himsclf to be a free colner the other day. Mr. Evarts’ spe this afternoon was a surprise in another pa ticular because of his exhibition of physical weakness, His voice was so low and tremu- lous that he could not be heard half way across the senate chamber, and the official stenographer was compelled to leave his usual desk and take a position immediately under him. The other senators crowded around closely and heard what he had to say, but his low voice and involyed sentences gave them little satisfuction. As one scuator r.- marked Ir. urts says he is for fr - age, but you can not tell it from his speech.” AN EXTENSION OF TIME GRANTED, A favorable report will be made b Manderson” from the senate committee on Indian affaivs on the bill which has passed the house granting an extension of two years time to purchasers of lund on the Omaba In- dian reservation in which to make payments, The senator will inglude an amendment pro- viding that thed per cent fro 1 was at the outset paid to the Indians, continue to be paid, interest and the interest on sales outstanding shall bo paid to the Indians purchasers of these lands are given to under- stand that this is the last extension they will be given and they may as well meet the payments withiu the time pr nator by this bill, A SINGULAR COICIDENCE, It is a singular if not o significant coinci dence that with one exception every diplo matie representative of the continental pow ers of Europe in Washington is & buchelor or widower, while every minister the-United States his sent to the continent of Europe is with one exception, o married man. The one excoption in Washington is Count Shouuec the minister of Denmark, who has a ver lovely wife to preside at 'the levation. The exception in Europe is Governor Porter of In diani at Rome, who is a widower, but his ac complished and scholarly daugh preside over his housebold and ent ins with boun tiful hospitality I'he bachelor il widowed diplomatists i Wasbington entertain theiv the sales, | nd that all acerued | pro rata, The | prepare to | seribed | gentleman friends, but the British legation is the only one in the long list at which _general hospitality is offered.

The Italian minister is mar- ried, but his wife is notwith Lim this scason, Durlng the last administration the ladies of the Russian and Swedish legations were lead- ers in society and are much missed. SOUVENINS FROM AN OFFICE . Sach member of the senate has reccived souvenir in the form of a cabinet photo of a man_dressed in a suit of storo clothes with a nicely polished silic hat upon his head and an umbrella under his arm, gazing at o knot- hole in the “dim and distant far away.” On the back of this photograph is the following inseription: “Peter West attorney at law, Reno, N graduated from Iowa state uni- versity; candidate for United States district judgeto fill vacancy in N o forty- nine; height 5 feet 10; w pound; May 20, 18%." These photographs are ac- companied by a letter from Mr. West, in which he invites the senators to whom they have been addressed to co-operate in secur- in him an appointment as United States judge, and he encloses the photograph in order that they may see what sort of & lool ing man they aro “assisting. This is a novel way of seeking office, but it is not proving any more effective than the orthodox plan. ALARM OVER THE MONTANA OUTBREAK, There is_a great jdeal of alarm felt here about the Indian outbreak on the Rosebud ageney in Montana, particularly as it is known that runners have been sent to the relatives of these Indians at neighboring agencies asking them to join in a general outbreak, The trouble grows out af the ai rest of two or three Indians for the murder of au inforn Thoe Indians have for many months given a great deal of trouble by kil ing cattle on the ranches in the neighbo K| hood of their reservations, and much com- plaint has been made of them, inally two or three, who were detected in the act of killing a steer, were arrested. A few days afterward the man who informed upon thém was found murdered and half buried by the roadside. The clues led directly to a part of Indians, who were arrested and in prisoned at Miles City. Their chiefs went to the agemt and de- manded the release of the prisoners, which of course was refused, whereupon tho whole band at the agency broke outin rebellion There are.about eight hundred of these In- dians in one section of Montana and among them about four hundred bucks, who are con- sidered the best fighters of their race, They arc the same northern Cheyennes who created so much trouble in 1870, when, after having broken away from their agency in the Indian territory, they rushed across Kansas and Nebraska, leaving behind them a trail of fire and blood. It was ove of the most dread ful Indian outbreaks that has ever occured in this country, and there is fear that it will be repeated. Representative Carter- of Montana was at the interior department today to ask that the soldiers at Fort Keogh should be reinforced. The secretary of the interior said that he in- tended to negotiute for the removal of the Indians to another reservation, Mr. Carter informed the secretary of the interior that the governor of Moatana had issued arms to the cowboys and unless tho Indians were quieted at once the frontiersmen would take matters into their own hands and would not leave enough Indians to negotiate with. Con- gress is to be asked to appropriate £5,000 to remove these Cheyennes to South Dakota. MISCE 3 Senator ddock introdueed a bill today to construe the act of Octob@r 18, 1858, regarding the survey and segregation of arid lands in the west S0 that only Tands "actually selected by the secretary of the intetior shall bo segre- ated, others 1ot so selécted being exempt. Under the act stated vast arcas of land in the west have been sot apart aid cannot be lo- cated under the timber culture or pre-emp- tion act. Many complaints ace coming in to the land oftice that great areas which are not arid lands per se are held to be and cannot b taken. The object of Senator Paddock’s bill s to give relief in cases of this chavacter. Senator Manderson received a letter today from General Schofield, acting secretary of war, inreply to letters and telegrams tiled from the authorities of South Sioux City, Covington, Plainview and Randolph, Neo., 1'by the urging approval of the plans present Pacific Short Line oridge comy ercetion of a bridge at Sioux City standing the objections. thereto of the Mis- souri river commission.
