This was Hie grand camoing spot for the Hez Perec Indiana before the Indian war of 1877. After tlie capture of the Nez Forces under Chief Joseph and the exile of the Indians for a few years, they were permitted to return to the reservation at Lapwal, near Lewiston. The triba ara very much discontented and sullen at the treatment received, the death of braves and the loss of stick, and have been heard to vow ven geance at some time on the whites. Over aiO Indians are now camped at the Mea dows. A large number of warriors arc in war-paint, and Meadows people are alarmed at the hostile talk and appearance o( the Indians. The squaws tell the settlers to bo careful of tha warriors — heap Mammaluce. 'Ihey think tlie whites have no right to that country and want them to leave. The settlers are leaving their ranches aud flocking to a central point in the valley. The greatest excitement i revails in Long Valley. The settlers aro arming and ready to de fend themselves agtiinst the attempts of the savages to murder their families or hum an;! pillagß their homed. Lnst Satur day one company of cavalry from Bois« Barracks, under Captain Murray, took up the line of march for Long Valley oui on a pleasure trip. Immediately on th« re ceipt of the news of possible trouble Governor iShoiiu dispatched Murray to hasten by forced marches to reach the Meadows as soon as possible to act ns a chrek on the Indians. Governor Shoup ;;lso dispatched an agent to Lewislon giving a full account of tin: situation, fears of the. settlers, e:c, and urged him to take immedi ate steps to get the Indians back on the reser vation. Governor Si;o;>p expresses himself uith caution. He sa^s he haidly thinks affairs will come to oi>en hostili ii-, but is taking every precaution to avoid trouble. Mii.es City (Mont.), Sept. 10.— A telegram was received to-day by the Coioaer, from Tongue iiiver Agency, notifying him that a murder had been committed and the body was awiiting his arrival.

It is thought that he was murdered by Indians. It was only last Saturday that the Indians arrested on suspicion of murdeiing Kobert Ferguson last May were turned Icosn be cause of luck of evidence, ami the Boyle murder following so closely will arousu the white settlers about tlie Cheyenne Reserva tion to war. Tlu'y had declared this sum mer if another white man was kiiled they would send the women and children out of tho country, and, together with the cowboys, wage a war of extermination on the Indians This they are abundantly abl« to do.

Warm Congratulations Extended to Him on His Sweeping Victory. Unfavorable Condition of Crops— The Tariff Bill Passed by the Senate and a Conference Asked For. Special Dispatches to The Morning Cali. Washington, Sept. 10.— Reed reached Washington this morning and appeared at the Capitol at about 11 o'clock. lie went at once to his room. It was expected that he would take his seat at the opening of the session, hut he did not respond to the sum mons ol tho door-keeper and Speaker pro tern. Burrows was called. On his way to the Capitol the Speaker was warmly greeted by both KeDiiblicans and Democrats, and received congratulations on all hands. Later in the day he held a sort of impromptu reception in his room at the Capitol, many members calling on him. His reason for not immediately taking tho Chair was because he thought it proper that Burro ws should himself announce the fact that ho (Burrows) had signed a number of hills which have passed the House. A magnificent iloral design adorned Speaker Heed's desk, composed of roses and SmltiUC bordering a large shield of white im uiortrlles, on which was in blue immortelles the word "Business." Surmounting t!ie whole was an immense gavel of white im mortelles, indicative of the power with which the Speaker wielded that emblem of authority. It is the gift of the enrolling clerks of the House. Just before the hour of norn a page ap peared, bearing in his nrms the emblem of the State of Maine, a nine tree planted in a bed of maidenhair fern, and surmnuntßd by a small f ilk American Hug, and placed it on the Speaker's desk. At 2 o'clock a lunch was given in honor of Speaker Heed by about twenty members of the House, including the Chairmen of the leading committees and these who took part in the Maine campaign. He sat at the head of tlie table, evidently in the best of humor with him- ill and at least so much of man kind as was assembled about him. Speaker Heed has de-ided tn appoint on the tariff confeience Messrs. MrKinley. Bur rows, Dingley, MnKonna, Mills, McMillin and Flower. They are all for reciprocity with probably one exesption. These are the names decided ujHin at tho conference between the Senate and House when it was agreed to Dass Aldrich's reciprocity amend ment, a full account of which conference was published exclusively by the Calilornia Associated Pres*. It At' 9l INVESTIGATION. Cooper 1 ) Testimony Relative to the Refrigera tor Crmp i.y Rule! Oat. Washington, Sept. 10.— In the Raam in vestigation to-day Chairman Morrill pro ceeded to pass upon the question raised as to the relevancy of the testimony offered yesterday by Cooper relating to trie charac ter of the Refrigerator Company's stock aud ruled it out I.«-wis. th« Diinozilf member, entered a. protest against the narrow limitation, hold iDg the character of thestocK was one of the counter itidictments. Assistant Chief ■ Bryant of the Pension Office , testified that . the completed cases order expedited . the settlement of some claims and retarded others. I More claims had Veen adjudicated under the order than before it had teen made. lie knew of no preference shown any particular attorney. To Commissioner Kaum witness said that while there had been a larger output of claims underlie new order than before Ihi to had been greater haste in the prepara tion of cases and much rivalry between the clerks. He (lid not say the work was im properly done, but called attention to the fact that some examiners were disposing of claims in It as time than they could be prop erly considered. . : The Commissioner wished to know whether witness had tried to put a stop to it. :. Witness replied that he had not thought of putting a .stop to it. | The 35,000 cases put on the completed tiles of the office had been selected without partiality. . '.-." Judge Wilson said it had been stated that Cooper had signed a large number of blank calls upon the Pension Office I for a firm of pension attorneys, and he would like to have Cooper make a statement about it. ' Cooper said he authorized his clerk to sign a laree number of calls for a pension firm in his district, understanding that it had been the custom. Perhaps there were 1500 or 2000 calls signed with his name. When he came to Washington he spoke to Chief Durnan in the Pension Office about it, and he doubted whether it was fair to call up cases in that way, but he must act for his constituents. -: Durnan told him to sign the slips and he would do what he could with them. Cooper did not think the slips were equivalent to a Congressional call. The attorneys he signed for had been neglected. He was told Lemon at that time had practically control of ttie Pension Office. Witness felt then and now that if he could do anything to help his people he ought to do it. He felt they had not a fair chance with the attorneys in Washington. ■ i Cooper asked the committee to pass upon his resolution, which was referred to it, to extend the scope of the investigation. No de cision was made and the committee ad journed. • ARMY ORDERS. General McCock Ordered to Los Angelei— The Fortifications Bosrd. Washington, Sept 10.—Urigadier-Gen eral Alexander AIcD.

Low Condition of Cora, Wheat and Pota toes in the East ■Washington, Sept. 10.— Tlie national crop report 9liows that the Injury to the corn crop reported lp.st night was intensi fied by the continuance of thedtotight iv August until the rain came, but it whs too late for full recovery. The average is 70.1, against 73.3 last month, the lowest average since 1881. The returns ol the condition of winter wheat at the time of harvesting are less favorable than those of the Ist of .July. As far as thrashing has progressed the re sults ore generally disappointing. The July average was 78.2, tha present average 73.5, The general average lor spring wheat is also reduced from !>3.2 to 7UB. The average for wheat of both kinds is 75.5. In 1888 tho September average for both was 77. It was 73- in 1881. The yield of spring wheat )i unusually variable in the Dakotas, ranging from high yields to five bushels and less ier acre. On the Atlantic Coast tliere is an improvement in corn since August Ist. A decline has oc curred in New York, Ohio, Illinois and all tiio Northwestern States, and in some others of less importance. The crop is late in the Kastern States, requiring maturing weather throughout September. It is also lale ami variable in development in New York and Pennsylvania. The Atlantic- Coast States give returns of a relatively high condition, impaired locally by tho effects of the mid summer drought and later storms. In Tenuessee, Mississippi. Arkansas anil Texas the drought reduced the condition too low for subsequent recovery. Ths Ohio Val ley and Missouri Valley report a protracted droußht'nnd low condition. While the rains during th» last two weeks of August have been beneficial, they have not always re stored the losses of the first half of the month. The lowest condition is to Kansas, though some Eastern counties make good returns. The Dakotas and Nebraska are .•» little higher, though the crop is late and will require a« much time to mature on the latitude of 40° ns for earlier varieties grown on the lino of 42°. Returns on the condition of winter wheat at the time of harvesting are less favorable than tho-e of the Ist of July. So far as threshing has progressed the results are generally disappointing. The July averHge was 70 2; the present average is 73.5. The general avenue of spring wheat is also re duced from 83.2 to 7U.8. The average for wlieat of both kinds is 75.5. In 1888 the Sep tember average for wheat was 77. It was 73 in 1881. The yield ol spring wheat is unusually vaiiable in tho Dakota*, ranging from a high yield to five bushels and less per acre. The progress o( threshing will develop the extent of these differences. The rye yield is less than was expected. The condition hs reported is reduced to 85.4. The September condition of oats is the lowest ever reported, having fallen from 70.1 in Aucust to G4.4. The rate of yield will be the smallest iv twenty years. The condition of barley Is lowered from 82.8 to 78.6. Buckwheat has fully main tained Us August condition, the average being 00.5, against 00.1. The figures for po tatoes havH (alien siiii-i! August Ist fruin 77.4 to 05.7. the lowest average yield ever reported, that of 1887 being 67.3. The re ported percentage for fattening swine is 97 per ceut and tbeir con iitwn 93.7.

Beginning to Warm Up for the Local Campaign. Colonel Mtrkham to Be Given a Reception. Candidates for the Nomination for Xayor-General Gossip. Content with his victory in nominating Pond at San Jose, Buckley has retired once more to the quiet precincts of his Livermoro castle, n here he will endeavor to rest his overtaxed nerves. The shock to his nervous system which followed his contact with the "heelers" proved too severe a strain upon his strength, and ho wns therefore compelled to scea a much-needed relaxation. He will not re turn until it Is time to select delegates to the County Convention, which, it is claimed, will not be held until some time in October. When he has decided upon the date for holding iD he will return to San Francisco, and, with Sara Kaioey, Jerry Driscoll and a few of the choice spirits of the Democracy, proceed to select the men to compose the convention. Of course no one will be chosen who will not yield subservient obedience to the man dates of the "bos*," acd each and every one of them will be voted from a private room, as they were at San Jose. Buckley will see to it that do one is nominated who is not in accord with him, but in the meantime the rough riders of tho party are not to be 1 al lowed to disturb his privacy. He has grown more haughty, it is said, since returning from San Jose, and the as sumption is, of course, that this is the result of increased wealth. This is the only rea sonable hypothesis on which to base it, in view of the fact that with the acquisition of wealth he has steadily grown in exclusive ness, and had already readied a point 'where none but the jiei fume I and clean shaven membra of the party could gain admittance to his presence. : ' ' - CANDIDATES FOR MAYOR. SeTeral "Well-Known Gentlemen Already In Hi- Fialfi. Now that the Admission-day festivities are at an end politicians are beginning to pull themselves together for the coining light and municipal matters will command a much greater Interest from this time on. Except to those having fights of their own on hnnd the principal interest centers in the battle for the Mayoralty nominations. Nu merous candidate; are already in the field, but from present indications it looks as if the struggle on the Republican side would be between L. K. Ellert and Wendell Enston. The former is a native of California, a popu lar business man and is at present the only Republican Supervisor. Wendell Easton has a large following and is well-known in the business community. On the Democratic side of the house ex- Postmaster Bryan, Frank MeCoppin, Colin . M. Boyd and Fleoi F. Strolher are all in the field and each is busy endeavoring to con vince Buckley that his nomination is neces sary to Democratic success. After all, of course, Buckley will decide the matter for himself and select whoever suits him the best. ■ , .-'-.■:-- REPUBLICANS IN EARNEST. : They Want a Municipal Ticket Placed In the Plaid E*rly. ' • There is a growing feeling among tho Re publicans that the Municipal Convention should be held at an early day in order that a ticket may be placed in the field that will bear the closest scrutiny. It is safe to say that no repetition of the disgraceful ( "sixty and " forty" trades of former years. will be tolerated and a good ticket placed early in the fluid is what is being demanded. - It is felt that with a. Slate ticket that will bear the minutest examination. ai:d which is practically certain of election, no tamper ing should be permitted with municipal af fairs ; that in the best interests of the party a ticket must be nominated that will bear up under the rigors of a long campaign. . With the feeling against Buckley stronger than over before, a move of this kind would not only prevent a citizens' ticket being put in tho field, but would insure Kepublican success. It is believed that this feeling will prevail. ' SELECTION OF DELEGATES. A Question at to the Manner of Holding Primaries. . There was to have been a meeting of the Republican County Committee last night, but ' through ■ some ' misunderstanding ' a quorum could not be obtained and no busi ness , was transacted. Ibe committee will meet, however, to-morrow ' evening, and at that time it is thought that some action will be taken relative to the time for holding the County Convention. The manner of select ing delegate* will also be decided upon. In reference to the latter there is some differ ence of ophiion as to the manner of conduct ing primaries, but it is probable that they will be "oi>en," as at the time of the selec tion of delegates to the State Convention. This is deemed best for the interests of the party, and the Republicans seem inclined to worK harmoniously. :-'. : .. ; :..
