A strange accident took place at the light tower at the corner of Fifth avenue and Twentieth street uight before last. Two boys whose names are Shocmaker and Kat- ustein climbed to the platform at the base of the iron framework of “the tower, and amused themselves by riding up and down tho clovator. The elevator is balanced 50 as to carry a man of 1% pounds, but the man who pufs the carvons on the lamps is vather small, and in order to mako the balauce even he loaded the platform down witkt a lot of heavy scrap irou. After the boys had amused themselyes riding up and down they yearued for some- thing more exciting, and after reaching tho bottom one of them called out, “Let her go Gailagher,” and released the platform which went to the top of tho tower like o flash of lightuiug. The thing was witnessed by a man who lives near by, and he swore the soraps of iron flew up in the air foru distanco of 150 feet when tho platform reached the top. Tho lamps wero completely ruined and tho tower was damaged to the extent of about §00. The two boys who wore responsiblo for tho damage, with a number of others about tho same age, have committed a number of petty depredations in that part of the city lately, and have brought down upon their heads the maledictions of thoir neighbors, This i3 the most serious offonso they have committed, and it is likely they will bo taken in hand by the authorities. —— Morningside.

Scenes of Oklahoma's Haleyon Days Repeated—Kfforts to Swindle Set- tlers—Safe Guards of the Government, Gurnnie, O, T., Sept. 10.—Tho excitement grows hourly groater among the people who will make the raco for homes in the Indian lands which will be opened to settlement next Tuesday. There are several causes for excitement, chief among them being the largo number of negroes who have gathered by hundreds at Langston, the Oklahoma negro colony, and who intend to move en masso upou the Cimarron valley, tho best, perhaps, of all the new lands, and settlo there to the exclusion of all other settlers. Many white settlers, among them being numbers of desperato and unscrupulous cowboys, object to the negroes’ plans and will take desperate chances to pre-ompt choice claims in tho very face of the negro hosts, Tho most des- perate say they will oppose by force tho wholesale scttlement of the negroes in tho valley. The cooler hoads, however, know that the race will be to the swift, no matter what his color. If the negroes get there first, the land is theirs, If the whites out run the negroes the latter must look else- whero for claims. ‘I'he excitement caused by the hostility ot the cowboys to the negrocs, has been of such along standing now that it is believed it will have nearly died out when the hour for the rush occurs, Langston is several miles from here, and is without telegraphic facilities, so that no official news has been received from there since tho forco of deputy marshals went there there yesterday to provent the threat- ened disturbanees. Colored P Another cause for excl of the Indians for the nogro. Tho Spc and Fox Indians olaim tnat their lands were sold to the government under a distinct agreement that they wero to be opened to ‘white sestlement.” They know they themselves cannot prevent tho negrocs from settling on tno lands, but they hint_in uumistakable terms that ‘they will male it very uncomfortable for tho “‘black man’ if ho settles among them. The Cimarron valley includes a portion of their lands, and between the hos- tile Indian and tho desperate cowboy the negro is having an exciting time of it. Still_another cause for excitement is the uncertaiuty as to just what lands may be claimed by the ordinary settier. Tho settler may be the most deserving and most desir- wble sort of a person; he may make a sug ful race for a certain section of iand and n claim it, but when hoe goes to_the land oftice to file his claim he way find that he has claimed an Indian's allotment oran_old so dier's pre-cimptionl The Indians’ allotments are not staked out, and of course tho oid soldiers, who are given tho privilege of selectin and pre-empting 160 acras cach simply by filmg an ordivary deciaratory statement, have not marked out in the lands those sections which they declare they will sottle upon. Tho claimant, therefore, has no means of knowing just what section he may claim, except from the List published by tho of the interior.

'The ordinary claimant, therefore, must take his chances in selecting his picce of ground of sclecting that which an Indian may have claimed under ullot- ment or which may have been cov- ered by an old soldiar's declaratory statement. Theso declaratory _statoments are very numerous. The land ofice hero is besteged by vetorans or their represeutatives. They have formed o long line which stretches from the door of the of- fice a distance or three or four squares. In the live are several old soldiers and many speculators who have purchased for a trifling sum the decluratory statements of old sol- diers and who sell them to the highest bid- der. Others have taken places in the line simply to scll them to some less fortunate persoi.

Tho arrivals by today’ hoiwever, soon filled tho town again with people who had waited until nearly the last minute before getting on tho ground. They tarried only long enough to purchase an outfit and were soon on their way to the borders. Every train now brings hundreds of people. and” there is much confusion and excitement. Out ou the border there is little excitemont —1t is u restless oxpectancy there.

C., Sept, 19.—Information has reacbed tho Interior department fr fous sources that specalators are proj inz to use powers of attorney, obtain cd from a very large numberof ex-soldiers, to file decluratory statements, under fon 2301 of the revised statutes, on fands to be opened to settlement by the president’s proclamation of yesterday, without anv bona fide iutention ou tho part'of the soldiers to become permu- nent settiers, Tu his letter of instructions to the registers und recoivers of the land offices to which' this new country is attached the sccretary de- clares that “any such proceedings would be fraudulent and you will_endeavor o defeat them if attompted by any means properly in your power. You will advise bona fide set- ters not to purchinse relinguishments of such filings when It appears that they were not made with the iutention of following them up by scttlement in good fuith under the law.? It is stated at the veneral land ofiico that the wformation is to the effect that unscru- pulous persons have purchased from thou- sands of old soldiers in diffevent parts of tho country for a very small consideration, usu- ally $5, powers of attorney to enter in ' their name these Okiahoma Indian lands. In most of these vases tho sol lier has no_intention of ultimately making his home on the land and tho cutry forms a cloud upon the title of an actual settle: who may have gone upon tho land a few hours after the soldier’s entry was filed. In these cases the actual ssottler, particularly, is not approached until ho has' expended a sum of money In_improvements, and would be will- ing to pay something, say §0 or §100, to have the cloud removed.

I'hese rates, based on the official classification, are as follows: First class, 50 cents; ‘second, 40 conts; third, 85 conts; fourth, 20 cents; fifth, 21 conts; sixth, 21 cents. This basis is 10 cents lower than that of the rail rates from Chicago to St Paul, which are as follows: First class, 60 conts; second, 50 cents; third, 40 couts; fourth, 25 cents; fifth, 18 cents; sixth, 18 cents. The new tariff from Boston is via the Central Vermont & Sarnia. As business from New Englaud poluts to the northwest is not heavy at this season of the year, it is probable that the Chicago and St. Paul roads will ignore this new cut, but the Chicago Jobbers are getting uneasy and may demand a partial removal at least of the discrimina- tion agaiust therm, The statement of passenger pool for lowing percentages several lines: Chicago, Paul and Kansas City lington & Northern, 10 teal, 12.93; Albert Lea, 7. One of the rumors current hero today is that when tho Denvor & Rio Grande contro- versy is settied Juy Gould will bo owner of that rond, The rumor is supposed to be ed on the fact that Gould and his chief lienutenants, when returning from their re- cent visit to’ Montana, traveled from Salt Lake to Denver on the Rio Graude and in- spected every foot of that road. It is argued further that Gould cannot afford to let the Union Pacific be shut out of Colorado busi- ness by ailowing the Rock Island or Burling- ton 1o tie up with the Rio Grande, President Roswell Miller has called a ing of the advisory voard of the Western raflic association, to be held in this city October 13, This will bo tho regular quarterly meeting of the board. Kaxsas Ciry, Mo, Sept. 19.—The inter- state commerce commission is investigating thie charges of rate cutting in Kansas City. The investization will begin Monday in the United Statos circuit court and wiil be eonductea by Special Agent K. Kretehmer, who arrived in the city yesterday for the purpose. Tho investi- gation will ‘begin with charges of cut- ting the froight rates out of Kansas City and the first line to bo looked after is the Lehigh Vally & Wa- basb Dispatch. Kretchmer's men began serving subpaenaes this morning. This ac- tion is u great surprise and the railround men are dumbfounded. It has been an open secret that the fast freight lines have been doing most of the cutting in freight rates for several months past, but no dreamed that the Interstate’ Commerce commis- on had taken the matter up. It was generally supposed thate the special agents were here for the purposo of looking 1nto the passenger rate situation and that the freight men were securc for a time at least. A number of the railrond men who are expecting a summons to appear and testify bave made themselves scarce, and the federal officers are busy searching for them. The origin of the action of the commission is said to be tho charges made against ihe Lehigh by a rival line, which failed to get the business which was being competed for. Several other cases, it is suid, will be - vestigated bofore the representatives of the commission leave the city. e DAILY. the Northwestern blind Augnst shows the fol. of trafic for the Milwau ¥ 14 83; Clit South Dakota Prospectors Rapidly Developing the States Wealth, Deabwoon, S.
