CHECKS TO OUR SECURITIES.
Railroad Receiverships and
the Trusts' Condition Dis
turbing 1 Elements.
Special to tin" Globe.
New Yokk, Sept 23.— During the,
past week Wall street lias hei-n devoid
of any features of special Interest. The
volume of transactions has been moder
ate, and prices have been somewhat
Irregular, In sympathy with erratic
movements in the industrial stocks.
Railroad securities, however, hold their
own pretty well, especially considering
the disappointment at the reduction of
Rock Island's dividend, which, however,
was not entirely unexpected. The large
ami controlling holders have confidence
n a steady and material improvement
in earnings as the recovery in trade de
velops and when the crops come to the
seaboard in Increasing volume. The
wheat crop is regarded as bringing a
more valuable amount of freight to the
railroads than any other cereal: ami as
the wheat surplus available for export
this year will probably exceed that of
any previous period, large expectations
are based upon this source of through
traffic. The corn crop is so largely con
sumed at the point of production, or
utter comparatively short hauls.thai the
decrease in this year's product of that
Staple is of less importance as affectiiiii
the railroads than might at first sight
appear. The country's exports of wheat
and Hour is valued at >170,000,003, while
that of Indian corn amounts to only
E25.003.00u; a decrease of 25 per cent.
therefore, in this latter crop must be a
comparatively small matter to the traffic
of the roads dependent on their cereal
export trade; and any loss on that ac
count is likely to be fully set off by the
gain in the export movement of wheat.
The traffic however, which brings the
lUobI Profitable iteanlta
is the carriage of manufactured articles
and of passengers; and what the im
provement in those classes ot traffic is
likely to be may be inferred from the
current active revival in every branch
of trade and the general starting up of
industrial production. Intelligent ob
servers see it) all this a sure coming ex
pansion of the earnings of the railroad*,
and they are "consequently unwilling to
part with any securities of that class.
It seems reasonable to expect that, with
such a revival in near prospect.a buying
movement will soon' develop with a
view to profiting by the higher prices
which these considerations foreshadow.
At the moment two influences are hold-
In:; these important "bull' factors in
check; one being the still pending re
construction of a very large amount of
railroad investment,' which keeps con
stantly before th« public eye the weak
points in tills branch- of finance; and
the other being She peculiar position of
the. "trust" organizations. An impor
tant proportion of the "combines" aie
either in serious difficulty or suspected
as to their; financial soundness, . and
others seem to be on the verge of dis
ruption from internal dissatisfactions.
The truth is that the doubtful basis
upon whicn i many of these concerns
rest is becoming apparent to discerning
eyes, and they are destined to run the
gauntlet of "
A Public It Ik! rust
■which probably they are not prepared
to withstand. The market is now
largely occupied with operations which
are calculated to bring this class of
securities to a truer correspondence to
their intrinsic merits. Those, there
fore, who prefer safety to indefinite
risks would be prudent iv exchanging
their "industrials" for railroad stocks
or bonds. London begins to show more
interest in American securities. As
our change of tariff policy U a move
ment in the direction of British ideas,
it is natural enough that the reduction
of customs duties should predispose
Englishmen to our investments. The
first effects of this change are apparent
less in any open speculative demand
than In a stream of inquiries from Lon
don to Wall street investment houses,
evidently iv contemplation of careful
and solid investments. This tendency
may be expected to grow as business
here revives and railroad earnings im
prove, and later it may easily become
the incentive to more active dealings in
"Americans" on the London and conti
nental exchanges. Indeed, there is
already a visible improvement in the
demand from London speculative
houses, although it is cautious and
tentative, and follows closely the fluctu
ations in the home market. The prob
ability is that, when our own people
"Set the I»ace"
by more active buying, London will be
found willing to follow us as far as we
may choose to go. It is difficult to see
how England can well escape a liberal
return to transatlantic investments.
The London rate of interest stubbornly
remains unprecedented^ low, and the
Bank of England is literally overflowing
with idle gold; England's home invest
ments are relatively high, and yield ex
ceptionally low returns; neither in her
colonies or elsewhere does she find new
enterprises of a character to attract
capital; in tlio outlying countries where
she has so enormously and unwisely
sunk her capital, such as Argentina
and Brazil, the beginnings of a slow
recovery may be apparent, but nothing
is presented sufficiently meritorious to
attract new outlays; Australia has dis
gusted the lenders whose hundreds of
millions of capital have .been sunlc
there, and must expect to raise its fut
ure loans at home; in short, ciiticise
our methods of finance, our democratic
institutions and legislative policies as
they may. Englishmen can nowhere
else find investments on the whole so
desirable as those procurable at New
York at about the present range of
prices. This is a fact so obvious, even
to sinister observers, that it cannot fail
to sooner or later have its effect on this
market. In view of the foregoing con
clusions I deem It unusually safe to
recommend the. buying of sound stocks
npo:i breaks in prices,

ENGLAND WAITS
For Maturing Ileorxnnlzation
I'l.uiN In America.
London, Sept. 28.— The New South
Wales o.'.j per cent loan of £888,000 has
been subscribed for to an amount five
times as great as the required sum, so
great is the pressure of unemployed
capital. With the minimum sub
scription at par the average allotment
was at £101 14s Bd. This success, it is
expected, will encourage further colon
ial borrowing. During the week there
was a small movement of gold to tier
many, but this was regarded as unim
portant. The price of silver relapsed
on the cessation of orders, supposed to
have been for the Indian mints. The
touo of the stock market was cheerful,
but business was restricted. Greater
readiness was displayed, however, to
deal in second and third rare securities.
First-class securities were a trifle
easier on realization. Brazilian rail
way shares and bonds were in
great request on the fall In the gold
premium, although in some quarters
the fall was regarded as the result of
speculation rather than a legitimate
improvement in trade. A rise in South
American stocks has largely benefited
Murrietta & Co. The market for for
eign securities was firm, especially the
Spanish department, on rumors of
negotiations for a new loan. English
railway securities were quiet. Ameri
can railroad securities continued slug
gish. The board of trade returns for
September are expected to show a eon
sideiable expansion of business with
America under the new tariff, but no
great improvement at the stock ex
change is likely while the railroad
market is under the influence of
reorganization plans. Erie seconds and
Reading firsts were down one. The
other changes were fractional and
mostly downward. Grand Trunk, of
Canada, securities were firmer. Mining
shares were active, especially those of
Western Australia ventures.

Officers Installed and Action
Xnken in tlie Kansas Case.
Chattanooga, Term., Sept. 23. —
The installation of officers was the tirst
business before the sovereign grand

of Rochester, was installed to the ex
alted position of grand sire; Hon. Fred
Carleton, of Texas, deputy grand sire;
Theodore lloss. of New York, grand
secretary, aud Isaac Shepard, of Penn

The grand sire then announced the
following appointments: Uev. J. W.
Venable, of Hopkinsvllle, Ky., leap
pointed grand chaplain; James L 5.
Blanks, of Virginia, appointed grand
marshal; James Harwell, of Nashville,
grand messenger, and Fred Hunt, of
Connecticut, grand guardian.
The Kansas case was taken up. This
case involves the standing of nearly all
the lodges in Kansas. The sovereign
grand lodge and the grand sire sustained
the action of the grand master of the
Kansas grand lodge, thus dissolving
the recalcitrant lodges In Kansas until
they meet assessments for charitable
purposes. After the singing of an ode

TRAIN WKECKHRS FAIIjKD.
I)ii«tai-iily Attempt to Wreck a
New Vorlt Central Express.
Rochester, N. V., Sept. 22.— A most
dastardly attempt was made to wreck
Train UG, known as thu "State Fast
Tram," between Uergen and Church
ville, just west of this city, shortly
before 10 o'clock tonight Engineer
Cherry was making up lost time, and
on the long stretch on the Buffalo
branch was pushing his train through
at the rate of fifty-live miles an
hour. Suddenly lie saw a mass on the
track ahead. He quickiy reversed the
lever aud pulled the air brakes,
reducing the speed one half.
At this rate be struck the obstruction
and stopped. Hurrying forward he
found two iiiiL'e ties wedged iv the
pilot and foretrucks. In order to r«
move them, axes had -to be obtained.
I>y the quickness of the engineer
an awful wreck was averted, for bad
the engine struck the ties at full speed,
every one of the fivo coaches, which
wrre ctowded, would have been
wrecked. The motive of the wreck was
evidently robbery, for it is known that
large amounts of valuables are shipped
on this train every Saturday.
Irving Makes a Hit.
London, Sept. 22. -During the past
week there has been only one theatrical
novelty that attracted any attention,
Henry Irvine's production at Bristol of
Conau Doyle's "Story of Waterloo."
The house was crowded ana "The Story
of Waterloo" was received with
enormous enthusiasm. Irving in the
part of the old veteran gave a line char
acter study. The distinguished Eng
lish actor never acted better, and in the
final scene he produced an immense
effect, moving the house to the wildest
applause. The calls lasted fifteen
minutes.

INDIANS WHO WORK.
Only About 25 Per Cent of the
Reds Receive Govern
ment Rations.
HAVE LEARNED TO LABOR.
Some of the Trib9s Earn
Large Sums of Money
Each Year.
CHANGING THEIR HAEITS.
At the Umatilla Agency in
Oreg-on Are the Great
Indian Farmers.
Tho American Indian lias become so
far subdued and civilized that the sec
retary of war recently thought it safe
to order a concentration of government
troops near the great railroad centers,
Btatlntc that iho presence of so many
was no longer needed on the frontier,
says the Washington Star. The
United States army is no
longer an "Indian police." ns it
has been called so often. It is more
likely to be summoned to quell a riot
than to put down an uprising. The
secret of this change iv "Lo" is that he
has been taught the white man's ways
and has been convinced tiiat it is better
to labor in the fields than to indulge iv
ghost dances and to go on the warpath.
Ills occupation as a disturber of do
mestic tranquillity Is gone. Hereafter
he is a factor in agriculture and com
merce.
Dr. Dorchester, the late superintend
ent of Indian schools, lias said that it
was the duty of the government to
teach the Indian to work the fields and
to engage in Other industrial pursuits.
Some tribes he found which had been
converted very easily to this new life.
They were people who had been accus
tomed to a certain amount of toil tor
many years. But tha nomadic tribes
were more difficult to handle. Indians
of middle age, belonging to
these {tribes— even some Indians be
tween twenty and twenty-live years of
age— could not learn new habits easily.
The chief efforts of the Indian bureau
for many years have been directed to
training the younger Indians. Now that
these are becoming the leaders of their
i tribes the effect of this training is
noticeable in the meat increase of indus
try among the Indians.
Maj. Powell, the chief of the bureau
of ethnology, writing about the Indians
some time ago. said: "More than two
thirds of all the Indians now wrest from
the soil and from industrial occupations
the means of subsistence without aid
from the general government, having
abandoned hunting, fishing and the
gathering of native vegetables, except
as a pastime and tor occasional sun
plies. Two-thirds of them are actually
engaged in civilized industries, and
are fighting their industrial battles
with success. One-third have no! ac
complished this much and subsist in
part on native products, in part on civil
ized industries and In part on the
charity of the government. All have
learned to work to some extent, and all
have learned the utter hopelessness of
contending; against the forces of civil
ization, and have abandoned the ex
pectation and generally the desire to
return to their primeval condition."
Influence of Government Rations.
So small is the number now living on
government charity that less than 25
per cent receive government rations
today. Only (lie aged and the blind
among the Indians west of the Rockies
and Chief Joseph's band of Nez Perces,
which have a special treaty, now draw
rations from the government. Every
Indian agent is opposed to the rations
scheme. "The Mojaves, with half a
chance, will come out nil right in the
end," says George A. Allen, the
agent at the ■■ Colorado River
agency, "but • * • allow
me to suggest here that as long as
rations are issued to Indians they won't
do anything for themselves." George
11. Monk, agent at the Fort Hall agency
in Idaho, says that a large proportion of
the Indians do absolutely nothing but
run horses, gamble, eat. sleep and
drink. "It is a difficult matter to make
any impression upon this class so long
as subsistence is issued to them," he
says. There are jealousies among the
Indians at the Flathead agency. Moat.,
because ' some . receive rations and
others do not. "A regular issue
of rations or supplies is a detri
ment to industry. advancement
to independence and self-support."
says Peter Konan. the agent. Writing
of the Indians at the Mescalero agency,
the agent says: "They appear to bo
very contented and happy, but their
advance in civilization is very slow, and
will be as long as the government gives
them good blankets, clothes to wear and
plenty of food to eat." These are but
samples of the letters which come to
the Indian commissioner constantly.
But the appropriation of money for the
"miscellaneous support" of tha Indians
has decreased 50 per cent in the last
nine years, and it is growing less and
less, fortunately for the Indians.
There are auout 175.000 Indians out
side the live civilized tribes, and they
earn about $1,800,000 a year from the
United States government alone. Of
this they receive about $250,000 for
products of Indian industry, But Uncle
Sam is not their best customer. They
make nearly $1,000,000 a year from the
sale of their products to others. And
they earn a great deal besides by the
transportation of freight and by day
labor of various kinds. The government
pays the m also $150,000 a year for cut
ting and banking logs. There is an In
dian police which draws more than
$100,000 a year from the public treasury-
Indian employes at agencies draw
$100,000 a year, and employes at Indian
schools almost as much. Farmers and
interpreters and judges of ludian courts
are the other Indians on the govern
ment pay roll.
Health or Indiana.
Who would believe an unauthoritative
statement that a band of Indians con
taining less than 1,000 men and women
made $250,000 in a single year cutting
and banking logs? Yet that is what the
Mcuomonee Indians of Wisconsin made
in the year 1893: and they could have
made more if the government had per
mitted them to cut more timber. Their
sumlus energies sought an outlet lv the
cutting of the waste timber into shingle
bolts; but this occupation was denied
them, because it was found that some
of them cut green timber for the pur
pose, contrary to the department regu
lations.
The Nayajos, who got their first stock
of sheep from the Spaniards in Mexico
by appropriation, are now the owners
of 1,250,000 sheep and 100,000 horses and
mules. The Sioux and Northern Chey
enne Indians at the Pine Ridge agency,
the scene of the last Indian' outbreak,
are the owners of 17,961 cattle and
10,774 horses and mules. Even the
Apaches at the Mescalero agency in
New Mexico— the much-feared Apaches,
the terrors of the trail, as -Old Cap
Collier" would probably call them If he
was writing this gtsj^— 100 cattle
and make 75 pouniTs of butter during
the course of the year. The entire ag
gregation of Indians under government
supervision and comn^jnakes about
100,000 pounds of butter In a year, owns
205,000 cattle and hauls 25,000,000 pounds
of freight in a year, with 300,000 horses
and mules.
_ At the Urn^v.iia agency In Oregon are
the gr-;- a ;. Uidiuu farmers. They mar- ,
kct 000,000 bushels of wheat alone every
year, with a total male population of
508 and a female population of GOO.
The female element must be taken Into
serious consideration in an estimate of
labor, for tho redskin has not abandoned
the Idea that labor was designed for
women. "The older Indians," says Dr.
Dorchester, '"and also many of the
younger, are impregnated with
the idem of the olden times
among this aboriginal people— that
the man's glory is war tuul the chase,
achievements by the bow and hah hct.
and that the heavier tasks are the
exclusive work of tho women. Even
the Indian women are saturated with
this iden. It comes to them as a heri
tage." Aud thut tho Oregon Indian
does not take to his occupation with the
best grace Is shown by the letter of tho
agent. "The progress of the Indian
toward labor and industry Is slow; he
is not built that way. but they will get
into the harness before many yenrs
and make d whele team. Now that they
havo their own laud they realize more
fully that their li ving must come from
it, 1 hat their eating will be in propor
tion to their work. If it was reversed,
and their work was in proportion to
their eating, it would be Immense." Be
sides these Inducements, the Indians
have before them at all times the excel
lent example of the white renters, who
raise every year nearly half a million
bushels of wheat under their noses.
Sold to the <liovcriiment.
The New York Indians are taking up
agriculture now. having been through a
farming experience. The St. llegls
Indians, about in number, derive
a revenue of 135,001) a year from the sale
of Indian baskets. The Indians at the.
Xeah Cay agency in Washington devote
themselves entirely to lishing.aud make
S-JO.tWO by that work. But, as a rule.thu
Chief revenue of the Indian tribes is
derived from the sale of lumber and
agricultural products and from freight
ing. Much ot their produce is sold to the
government. The Sioux Indians of
South Dakota sell more than $100,000
worth of wheat, coin, oats and barley to
tho government in a year; the Sioux of
North Dakota sell 135,000 worth to the
government. This is in addition to the
$30,000 worth of produce sold to outsid
ers. The Mojave, Yuma and Apache
Indians at the San Carlos agency, in
Arizona, sell 530.000 worth of goods,
chiefly agricultural, to the government,
and?2o,()Jo world to outsiders.
Other work is found for the Indians
in the making of roads (of which they
will make 250 miles in a year), tho run
ning of saw mills and fiour mills, and
the erection of agency buildings. Hut
the occupation in which the industrial
salvation of the Indian is to be found is
agriculture; and to foster development
in this direction the government is as
sisting to irrigate the Indian hind's and
Is issuing mowing machines and other
implements which will help the ludiau
to be :i farmer instead of a loafer.
