Southwlck, who came ia from Garden Plain yesterday morning, gavo us the particulars of the burning of Itatlifl's flouring mill at that place which occurred at 1 o'clock yesterday morning. Inaveiy few minutes after the flames wero discov ered tho mill -was in ruins. The mill had one run of stones and two sets of new pro cess rolis, and with exception of the boiler is a total loss together with a considerable ntnount of wheat, the total loss being esti mated at $14,000, on which there is reported to be an insurance of $5,000. The capacity of the mills was about fifty barrels of flour per day and tho people of Garden Plain aro very much put out by the unfortunate fire to say nothing of the effects of tbo disaster to the owner. WICHITA AND FT. SMITH. A Visit From General Maca-jer Wood. General Manager Wood, of the A rkansas Valley Itailroad company, better known as the Ft. Smith, Little Bock and Arkansas City line, arrived in Wichita night before lasL Yesterday in company with cx-Coun-ty Treasurer John Tucker he went down to Wellington. After their return Manager Wood made us quite a call during which the railroad propositions of the Eagle were thoroughly discussed, ho having been a care ful reader of its colums since last spring. He is convinced that Wichita has a grand fu ture before her not only as a commercial city but ns a beef and pork packing point, and as a grain market with a choice between northern and southern markets and north crn and southern raiiwav outlets. As to the extension of a railway down this valley to the Mississippi river he is better posted than any man with whom we ever talked, and it is not surprising that be should be when it is remembered that he has made this pro posed link to a trans-continental road the ttudy of years. He came here to antagonize no local or railway interests, hut he believes that Che limo has come for the settling of the Indian Territory question by opening iL Tho interests of Kansas and the states of tho lower 3Iissisippi v alley demand that this bar should bo let down and he hoped congress w ould so see it and so act. We told him that the Eagle had opposed the Boomer scheme for the rottenness at its bot tom and the opening of the Territory until southwestern Kansas, which is a finer and better country, should be settled, but that now Wing accomplished we were ready to urge upon our delegation or congress the desirability of immediate action. Mr. Wood in spcr.king of their railway interests said his people had the means provided and were anxious to construct, independently, or in conjunction with a friendly line, a road through the Territory, along tho great Arkansas i alley, just as soon as the necessary right of way could be had from congress. As to tho traffic of such a m line, its connections, eastern termini, sea boards, etc., more was said than can be .crowded into the space of a brief article, lie is delighted with Wichita and the evi dences of push which he meets on all sides, and he has no fears that such a people will over deep on their rights. Before the talk was ended we assured him that Wichita was wide-awake to tho advantages of a Mississippi ri cr outlet, that w o knew that we were nearer tho great southern systems and iLcir connections than is Kansas City, and tliat when tho time came his company could depend upon harmonious and effective action upon the part of not only Wichita liut of this entire section of the valley. Mr. "Wood leaves lor St. Louis this morning. A GRAND HUNTING PAKTY. A party of Denver and Loadvillo men, miners and capitalists, will arrive in this city to make it headquarters, in October, for a grand hunting and fishing time. Their hunting and fishing tackle, including dogs, boats, guns and amunition, had already ar rh ed and awaits their arrival. Some of the gentlemen coming hat o interests in the city and it is expected will invest largely iij-jing their visit. LUNAR ECLIPSE. A partial eclipse of the moon was observed at 1 o'clock this morning, the interviewing planet passing across tho lower portion of tho moon's disc from south to north. This phcnofeimon had not teen announced by any astronomer, and it caused much interest to all who observed it. Wo aro prepared to fill orders for G. A. R. cards on short notice. TJTie Bi LADIES' BENEVOLENT HOME. The directors held a meeting on Wednes day afternoon and part of the time was oc mnied in ammendine the constitution. Tho following clause was adopted as one of the articles: "Xo denominational preierenccr, or sectarian relations shall be permitted to govern any of the acts or operations of this society, either in elections or benefactions." A visiting committee was appointed whose duty it shall bo to visit tho homo onco or twice a week. The homo is a double house divided into two separate apartments, ono for male and the other for female pa tients. A portion of the city was districted in order that a systematic canvass can be made for donations of money and such articles as parties may feel willing to donate for tho uo tbo home. In order to guard against persons solicit ing for the homo who are not authorised to do so, and guard the peoplo against being imposed upon, wo gUe tho districts and tho namo of tbo chairman of the soliciting com mittee in each district, and donations given to any of those named below will find its wav into the rroper channel.

If thmictnd Hollar nrizo was offered for the best description ot a city yet to do duhi and Marsh ilurdoclc was lnicresieu in iuo Dlacc. he would cet tho money, although every writer in America came in competi tion. The glory of Eli Perkins Tom Och eltree and .). Mulhattan has departed and the chmupiun belt bears tho initials JI. M. M. Wellington Tros. IftheEAOLEblowed as much, propor tionately. Of cr Wichita as tho Wellington nnd Winfield naDers blow about their respective towns, peoplo would think that we had gone crazv. A description of Para- diso fh the most moderate language could hardly fail of being attractive. Our friends should remember that there U much in tho subjecL The cold facts about Wichita and Sedgwick county when put in tho plainest Saxon, sounds no doubt in the ears of less favored communities like the recital of some wonderful dream. If tho Wellington Press man or the Winfield Courier man and several others that wo wot of, lived in Wichita and should attempt to extol in the same extravagant degree orainaruy em ployed by them in describing the advan tages of their respective towns, the glories of this city and county, the state would give them a homo in ono of her asylums without waiting tho formality of a jury's verdict touching their sanity. Hor.. D. A. Hunter, a member of the legis lature from Lyon county, is visiting the editor or the Eagle and family. Mr. n. is a farmer and stook raiser, more particularly the latter. He settled in Lyon county in 1S0S, preempting his home placcatatimo when Emporia had but a dozen or so people and when all west of that point was a vast buffalo range. He comes down to verify all that he has heard and read of Wichita and Sedgwick county. In the fall of 1853, ho helped make up a party of several who came down from the eastern portion of the state for a buflalo hunt. Tho party went into camp on the Cow-kin, six miles west cf tho junction of the two Arkansas rivers where they bagged a big lot of game. Mr. H. killed a buffalo standing on the river just above where the big bridge spans the stream. He says ho expected to find a good solid town or city here, standing out on tho open plain, but instead he finds a city buried ia a ln.t of trees that look to bo fifty years old to which fact ho finds impossible to reconcile himself. OUTSIDE THE CITY. The Eagle's call for police protection ai the union depot, which was instigated by the high-handed operations of the gang who infest that neighborhood, created quite a furor on the streets yesterday morning and the question was discussed by all classes. The city authorities claim that even if Gil bert's addition is within the corporation, the union depot is not, becauso there is a strip 180 feet wide extending along the Santa Fe track, lying between Dr. Burleigh's pro perty and the railroad. The railroad company will soon find it necessary to protect their patrons against garoters and highwaymen, and if their de pot is outside the corporation they should move it into the city or furnish protection in the country to the patrons of the road. The community are worked up to a high pitch of excitement in consequence of the late atrocities perpetrated in that locality and are demanding that something bo done to pre vent a repetition of such deeds as havo been committed there the past two or three nights. REBUILDING A MILL. An Eagle reporter was attracted to Mr. V. E. Appleby's planning mill on Wichita street yesterday morning, by seeing a lot of mechanics tearing it don. The scribe sought Mr. Appleby and asked the cause of the racket "We are going to remodel and rebuild the whole mill from bottom to top and make it two-stories high," said Mr. Ap pleby. "1 ha, e bought a complete set of new machinery throughout, and when I am through with it ou will see a complete new mill with the best modern machinery and with enough room to work from forty to fifty hands. I will then be in a position to compete w ith any mill in Kansas City. The building will be fifty feet square and two- stories high. The shaving room will be fitted up in the best stjlc. I will put in a brick engine and boiler room and a new en gine and boiler. I have also bought a very heavy stock of finishing lumber, suitable for all purposes and can fill all orders on short notice. In a word it will be the best plan ning mill in the state. NEW STREET CARS. A reporter visited the street car barn yes terday afternoon and inspected the two new cars lust received. No finer cars can bo found in any city. They arc far superior to any in the state. They were built by the Brownell & Wight car company of St. Louis, They are the same size as tho last two received before these and have all the modern improvements the others had with many new features. They have onlyfivo windows against six in tho others, hut they are much larger. The seats arc upholstered with carpet. There is an elegant largo globe lamp in the center of each that will compare with tho lamp in a parlor car. In the right-hand corner on each end is a lamp on tho inside with a reflector on tho outside. They havo a new and improcd style of fare box. They are numbered 9 and 10 and lettered on the sides, "Douglas Avenue and Union Depot." They were put on the track for tho train last e ening and were greatly admired by all who saw them. Major Powell is entitled to the highest commendation for his enterprise, and our people will thank him for providing such handsome and comfortable cars for their accommodation. The old Farmers and Mechanics' mill, on Douglas avenue, is to be moved to Clear water, and the building is to be occupied as a feed store by KUuberg & Allgaier. This office has in stock a beautiful selec tion tif wJJing goods, regreU, calling cards, etc,, together with late designs in type. We ore prepared to suit tho tastes of tho faslid eous.

Tho pros ecution was conducted by County Attornoy Green, of Newton; Hon. W. E. Stanley, of Wichita, for tho defense.

Saeatooa, I Y., Sept. 23. Tho second day of tho New York Republican conven tion opened cold and stormy. During the night there were many conference commit tees of resolutions heard, ihocnaplara ot tho senate, Rev. Dr. S. V. Leech, urged tho committee to take a square ana ooia nana on the temperance question and recom mended a constitutional amendment regula tion for prohibiting liquor. Somo members of the committee favored tho proposition, but tho great majority were opposed to tho formulation of any temperance plank. Trains arriving this mo-ning aro bringing in largo numbers of delcj ites to tho Demo cratic convention, which will meet to-mor- rnw. Tho hour for assembling appears to be rather early for the majority ot delegates. They strolled into the hall very slowly, and It was not until liciu inai mo cuapinui oi fercd prayer. Immediately thereafter David Healy was voted permission to addrcs the convention on oenau oi mo laoor inieresu. At tho close of Mr. Healy's address, the committee on resolutions reported a plat form. When the clause was read relating to the preference of offieo to bo given to ox soldiers. Corporal Tanner, of Brooklyn, in quired if that meant if a soldier passed an examination that proved his competency ho ilmnld ln annointed even if a colleco Grad uate of yesterday should pass at a higher figure! "It does, quickly rejoined lOl. Bliss, "if a soldier passed at 80 and a dude stands at 100, the soldier gets tho place." Great applauso and laughter. Tho plat lorm was unanimously adopted. Davenport had been nominated for gov ernor, and his nomination was mado unani mous amid great chc- ing. The whole con vention then yelled Car" for second place. Gen. Carr was quickly nominated for lieu tenant governor by acclamation; Anson S. Wood was nominated for secretary of state and James W. Wadsworth lor comptroller. Tho platform adopted by tbo Republican stato convention is as follows: The Republican party of Jfcw York in ronvention assembled declares, first, that tho provision of the existing civil service laws of me stale anu naiioa suuuiu uv Bkrcugtiicui'u and extended to all grades of public service to which tbey may oo applicable, so that a selection of administrative officers shall, so far as possible, be govcrnen by capacity and fitness. We insist upon tho enforcement of these laws by public officers, not only in let ter but in spinL Honorably discharged soldiers and sailors, who are shown by com petitive examination to possess tho neces sary requirements, should bo given the preference in certification and appointment. Second That the laws affecting the gov ernment of cities should bo simplified so as to enable tho people to fix the responsibility with case and certainty. Third That we demand the passage of the act putting an end to the enlargement of the stock of money formed of silver, or based on a silver maintenance of tho gold standard of the purity with gold, of all kinds of money in use, as essential to the prosperity of a country and tho restoration of silver to its former position as good money. Fourth That wo emphasize the demand of tho last national Republican convention that tho imposition of duties on foreign im ports shall be made, not lor revenue only, but that in raisinir the reauisite revenues for tho government, such duties hall be levied as to afford security to our di versified industries and protection to our interests ana lauor, 10 too end that active and intelligent labor, as well as capital, may havo itsjust reward, and the laboring man his full share in tho national prosperity. Persistent threats to overthrow this policy add to the present trouble of trade and the paralysis of in dustry. Until tho full eflect of tho revision of 18b3 can be fairly estimated, tho agita tion of tho tariff law is a gratuitous assault on tho wages of labor in all branches of production. All interests cf traffic are op posed to tho introduction of any system of free trade, the enevitablo effect of which would be to destroy our mills and factories and to carry down American wages to the standard of the old world. Tho fifth resolution, while it endorses tho dvinir sentiments of Gon. Grant, flies the bloody shirt, and talks gibly about insisting onpolitical rights in the south, etc. The sixth resolution speaks with reference to the contract labor system in competition with free labor. The seventh, that the letinz of contracts for state work should not bo awarded U any person or corporations discriminating against any class or organization of labor er. Eiffhth We recommend tho lecialation of granting benefit ot public schools to all children of tho state; such control of factory employment as that we surround the women employed herein with the neces sary safeguards for their physical, mental and moral well being. Ninth That stringent laws should bo passed for the improvement of tho sanitary conditions of the homes of working mn in cities. Tenth That we demand strict enforce ment by national government of a law pro- inDiling wo importation oi contract laoor. Eleventh That we recommend legisla tion to foster the agricultural and dairy in terests of the state and such as will prevent adulteration of articles of food. Twelfth That we favor the continuance of the railroad commission upon a non-par tisan basis. Thirteenth That in the interest of cheap transportation for the country, and reduced taxation for tho people of th'is state, wo de clare in favor of asking tbo national govern ment to assist in the. improvement of locks and deepening of the channel in tho Erie canal understate control. Fourteenth That improvement in tho system of taxation commenced by the recent Republican legislature, under which largo sums have been collected from sources which previously escaped taxation, should be per fected and extended so that the burden may fall equally upon all classes of property. Fifteenth We condemn the bjpoensy of the Democratic party in pledging itself be fore the election to ciul service reform, and after the election denouncing, through its press and leaders, the civil service act as un constitutional, while the national adminis tration removes tried and faithful public servants and replaces them with persons whose only recommendation is active, and in some Instances disreputable, political work. Sixteenth Wo denounco the hypocritical pretenses under which faithful Republican officers aro removed on the plea of offensive partisanship, while such inon as Higgins, Thomas, Thropp, Chase, Pillsbury, Aquilla Jones and others whoso names appear upon the prison records of tho country are ap pointed in their places, while removing elso where on tho ground of offensive partisan ship Republicans who edit newspapers, the national administration continues in high Judicial office in tho city of New York a prominent Democratic appointee who so nubliclv announces himself as havinc as sumed since his appointment tho control of it tho duty of the Republican majority ot the senate to oppose the confirmation of any person appointed in violation of the letter and spirit of tho civil service law; we de nounce the national administration for its obvious willingness to abandon opinions, they have professed upon currency and compromise with those leaders of their party who arc avowedly in favor of tho con tinued abasement of the currency; for its hostility to the commerce of the country evinced by its refusal to carry out the sys tem adopted by congress for the encourage ment of American shipping; for its arbi trary action in repudiating the contract reg ularly entered into by duly authorized acsnts of the government and persevering in the attempt to depriveAmerican mechanics of ice means oi jirnnooa unman arousea puo lie opinion compelled it to abandon the at tempt, and for its hostility further avinccd by the arbitrary enforcement of the custom laws by a pro vision and tricks intended to deprive merchants of any fair opportunity for as serting their rights. We denounce the Democratic executive for his action in ref erence to the census, resulting in an extra session of tho legislature at a large and use less expense while he vetoed the necessary appropriation! for the state board of health in tho face of a decided epidemic ' We de nounce his conduct in vetoing the Brooklyn. reform bills in order to commend himself to local Democratic leaders, while he approved bills legalizing claims dating from the days of Tweed and barred by the statute of limi tations and by judicial decision, and there by imposed additional burdens on an over burdened city. The ticket was comDletcd as follows: Stato treasurer, Maj. Charles Ulrich; attor ney general, Edward B. Thomas; state en gineer, Wm. 1. Van Rensseler. Adjourned sine die. The indications at a late hour to-night are that Gen. Hill will have a majority on the first ballot at the Democratic stato conven tion. Tho absence of John Kelley is very; much commented upon, it being the first time he has absented himself since ho assumed tho leadership of Tammany. 1:30 a. m. Tammany hall has agreed to support Hill for governor. Blsj Fire In El Dorado. El Dorado. Ks., Sept. 23. A firo was discovered in Lecox & Facklcr's livery barn at seven o'clock last evening and in a mo ment tho building was wrapped in flames. Thirteen horses were burned and a portion of the contents of the barn. Tho fire spread south, burning Jim Hughes' tin shop, the Ohio house, Dr. Basssett's drug store and tho north end of a photograph gallery. Tho Drorjertv dcitroved.amounts to S15.000 or 20,000, with little insurance. The Racing Yachts. Saxdv Hook, Sept 23.

Two cyclone disturbances yesterday morning on tho Car olina coast and north of Lake Ontario have united over New England with a most de cided storm center, now near Eastport, 51c. Storm on the Lakes. CaicAQO. SepL 23. A very heavy north- ly galo prevailed throughout tho entire lako region yesterday and last nighL Vessel masters who arrived during tho night state that tbo storm was terrible and tho sea run ning higher than at any previous time this season. Kcports have been received of four schooners wrecked at various points on Lake Michigan, tho crew being rescued in each case. Ecars are felt for tho safety of a number of vessels. Tho lookout at tho life- saving station saw two fishermen walking on too pier, anu realizing iua danger luey were in. signaled them to return. They paid no attention to his warning and had proceeded about fifty yards when the breakers lifted high over tho pier nnd des'unded upon tho timbers with a crash, carr3 ing tho two men Avar Thn lift, hnnt ftliirfnii in lha roMiA immediately, as did also two sailors, who jumped from a vessel lying closo by and ran along the pier in the hopes of saving the drowning men, but these two bravo fellows were also swept into tho lake, and although a boat was immediately lowered from a vessel and sent to their assistance, they would probably have been lost but for the opportune arrival ot the lile-saving crow. The two fishermen, after a brief battlo with the waves, sunk from sight, and although tho life-savers made a diligent search for their bodies, they havo not been found. A Message of General Grant Made Public. Neooa, III., Sept. 23. The reunion of tho veterans of General Grant's old regiment, tbe 21st Illinois Veterans, began here last night with a primary session, at which Col. Fred. Grant was present, and ho was ac corded a very hearty reception. In response to requests for a speech, the colonel said: "I do not intend to make you a speech, for I havo not been trained as a public talker. I have here a document I would like to read to you. It is a line written by my father upon matters pertaining to the war, and has never before been made pub lic As ho entered into the war w ith your regiment first, and as he always spoke of you with affectionate interest, it is fitting that you should be the first to hear his part ing words. This is what he wrote upon tho pages 1 hold here: "I feel that wo are on the eve of a new era, where there is to be great harmony between the federals and con federates. I cannot stay to be a living wit ness to tho correctness of this prophecy but I feel it is to be so. The universally kind feeling expressed for mo at times when it was supposed that each day would prove my last, seems to bo a beginning of tho an swers to 'Let us have peace.' The expres sion of these kindly feelings wero not re stricted to a section of country nor to a di vision of people. They came from individ ual citizens of all nationalities and from all denominations Protestant, Catholic and Jew; from various societies of tho land scientific, educational, religious and oth erwise. Politics did not enter into the mat ter at all. I am not egotistical enough to suppose that all this significance should bo given this matter because I was the object of it; but the war between tho states was a vprv hloodr and a verv eostlv war. Ono sido or tho other had to yield principles dearer than life before it could bo brought to an end. I commanded tho whole of tho n3ghty hosts engaged on tbo victorious side, no matter whether deservedly so or noL As a representative of that side of tho contro versy, is it not a significant and gratifying fact that tbe confederates should have joined In this spontaneous move! I hopo tho good feeling thus inaugurated may continue to the end.'" A general amen went up from tho audi ence, and then the meeting quietly aa- journed. WANT ,C0LU5LN.
