When there is an Indian outbreak the
army is called on to quell it. It would
seem rational to give the army a chance to
prevent outbreaks. The Indian Bureau
ought to be attached to the War Department.
The idea is not note, but it is good.
A CiiicAdo reporter of slight build was

saying that the latter had "pulled" his

telling the truth. lUsn't dignified to permit
such liberties.

A wAVEof reform knocked things around

took bold. Among other things horses
and carriages at government expense wer*
no longer to be used by public officers.
There was a great display of getting rid of
these things. Xow they are creeping

importunate party. Oh, yes, the President
can resist his party.
The address of Honorary President
Augustus Pollock, at the opening of the
Sfragerfest was not only a polished production,
it was a very happy blending of
tin poetical and the practical sides of his
inspiring theme. From touching with
exquisite delicacy the chords that vibrate
with rhythmic emotion, the speaker
turned to matter-of-fact suggestions of
great utility to practitioners and to patrons
of the line art of music. The occasion
would be notable if only for having
brought out such an address.
TiiE&engerfest which has cost so much
effort, and to which Wheeling has looked
forward with so great expectation, ban
surprised the most sanguine by the artistic
success of the flret night.
The programme was well arranged and
executed with great acceptability. The
murked appreciation of the good things
uhowed that Wheeling is not lacking in
musical taste. Not the least gratifying
featuro of the occasion is a hall that would
do credit to any city.

The great feast of song was inaugurated
last night. In the earlier part of the day
the city took on a gay and festive appearance,
as if beneath a magic hand. Daylight
saw few decorations abont town; by
noon, Main and Market streets e*pecially,
and other streets to a less extent, were
live with the black, white and red mingled
with the red, white and blue, while side
by side the Prussian eagle and America's
own bird of freedom were tlgured.
At an early hour strangers began to ar
rive, ami all day long delegations ana societies
were added to those already in the
city. Kach arrival was escorted with
music and ilying colors to the quarters it
had been assigned, and the streets were
gay till evening.
Already the city is in possession of the
music-loving, uiirth-nialcing, whole-souled
German-Americans, aud "the cry is, still
they come." They find a hearty welcome,
and their enjovments are gladly shared by
their fellow citizens of other nativities.
They bring good cheer and a concord of
sweet sounds. Little enough timo is devoted
to the gratification of the taste for
music, and too often Americans born forget
in the chase after fortune to take time

Kansas Citv, Mo., July 20.?A dispatch
from Cretfield, Kansas, says that thirteen
hundred soldiers are in camp there. One
troop is out scouting toward the Cimarron
river camps, from the camp in Kiowa, tf*
teen miles southwest, scouting thence
over to join scouting lines with Companiei
A, E, F and SI, of the Eighth Cavalry,
scouting under Major Compton from a
camp sixty miles west of us, and about
seventy-five miles northwest of Camp Supply.
About one hundred miles due south
of us, on their own reservation, comprising
about ono hundred miles square, and
on what is known as the Old Cantonment
(which in a well known Indian camping
ground about seventy-live miles west and
slightly south of Fort l^eno), are the most
of the Cheyenne warriors, with a chief
who will not come into Fort Kenoto powwow.
The reason given by the Indians ifi
that tho young backs, having insufficient
rations, are now out hunting for game.
When thoy can, they will come in and
powwow with Generals Miles and
Sheridan. Till then tho pale faced soldiers
must have patience. Meanwhile
stories arrived at headquarters that the
Indians are Insincere. Thev slip out tc
hunt, well mounted and finely armed.
Thoy come home with poor guns and with
only a few poor ponies. They are securely
hiding their fire arm?, ammunition and
ponies west of their reservation. They
have below 1,500 bucks. The arms they
secret are principally Winchester rifles.
Milks C'jtv, Most , July liO.?tiotilers
in to-day from the scene of the Cheyenne
uneasiness on Tongue river say that the
Northern Cheyennes are congregating on
Tongue river, at the mouth of Otter creok,
and are making medicine; that they ob?
ject to the authorities sending their visi?
tors from Dakota, numbering over a hundred,
back to I'iue Ridge; that tho settlers
of that district aro prepared to mako a
atron* defence if necessary, but that they
believed Maj r Logan, of Fort Keogb, who
weut to tho scene, can settle the trouble
without any serioua conflict.

Clkvkland, 0., July 20.?The strikers
wore very quiet to day on account of ihe
aliuoet intolerable heat. The men are
still determined not to go to work at a reduction
and the general impression among
all classes is that the mill will remain idle
for some time. The company still insists
on a reduction and says that the men must
accept it or do without work altogether.
It is asserted by some that thero will bo
a change in alt'alrs by the lirst of August,
and it is hoped that tho employes will be
at work and making fair wages. The
workmen seem determined to hoard their
earning ami to act as law-abiding citizens
aud no further trouble is anticipated by
the authorities. All watchmen employed
by the Moiling Mill Company have been
discharged and the gates closed up. This
is regarded by the citizens as au indication
that the juUIs will not be started up

Mountain Lake Park, Md., July 20.?
To-night closed the ten day'scampmeeting
at this place, conducted by the two celebrated
Quaker Evangelists, Dn. Updegraff
and Clark. In many respects it has
been a remarkable meeting. The crowd
was good, especially Uie last two days, and
the services were very interesting and exciting.
There were a large number of
conversions, and a greater number of
sanctifications. While these Evangelists
make a specialty of the holiness feature,
they do not neglect the sinner. At every
service strong appeals were made to sinners,
and many yielded to the call and
professed conversion. But the work
among church members was the more interesting
feature of the services. There
6m be no estimate of the good done in
this respect. Many church mombers were
in attendance from several surrounding
Statcp, and all of them go away with a

Washington, D. 0., July 20.?Special
Agent Wo. M. Williams, of the Treasury
Department, lias been investigating,
by order of Secretary Manning, the fitness
for official position of Jerry Mulrov,
appointed to a subordihato position by
the Surveyor of the Port of Cincinnati,
and report* that the records of the police
, court and workhouse show that Mulroy
was arrested on December 7,1875, for the
petty larceny of a dog valued at $1.85,
found guilty and fined $25 and costs, and
sent to the workhouse in default of the
payment of the fine.
On the 20th of the satno month the
Board of Directors of the workhouse met
and investigated the matter and ordered
' his discharge on the grounds that th*.
offense was a trivial onq and that the
prosecution was the result of spite work.
It was also charged that Jerry Mulroy
had been found guilty of druukennesi
aud lined 310 aud costs, and sent to the
workhouse August V, 187(1. The special
agent says: '1 am clearly of the opinion
that this last charge has reference to some
other'person."
In support of this opinion ho submits a
statement of police officer AlcParlaud, who
was the prosecuting witness, and who
avers that the culprit on this occasion was
not thu Jerry Mulroy who is now assistant
custodian of the custom house.
A number of papers from Alulroy'a recent
employers are enclosed Us vouchers
as to his respectability and fitness for a
public position, and the special agent
tieard ol nothing against him worse than
the charge of being uu activo politician.
The special agent also reports in tho
mo nf AnviiatuR O. Ronnnr. colored, an
pointed by .Surveyor Caldwell as janitor
in the Uegibtered" J<etter Department of
the Postolttee at Cincinnati. The agent
finds that Conner served a turn)
of three years in the Ohio 1'enitentiary,
Jiavii.g been convicted of stealing
a watch and chain. Cpnncr loltl
the special agent that he did not, steal thp
watch aud chain, but undertook to pawn
them for the man who did the stealing.
The social agent is not able to find any
one who knows Connor but what has a
good word for him, and there is no question
but that he has proved himself a useful
and trustworthy manfortho last few
years."

ROACH'S STORY.
The Ships Contracted tor Conditioned Before
Their Keela were Laid.
8 New York, July 20.?Mr. John Roach
last night, in speaking of his assignment,
d said: "Now as to the causes which have
led up to my assignment, strictly speaking,
it is not a failure; that is to say, my as*
signees will he able to pay two dollars for
every one dollar of liabilities, if they reala
ize anything like the real value of my prob
perty. I cannot now say what the exact
il amount of my liabilities are, nor what the
,r sum of my assets will bo to meet it, but if
I were not so old a man, and if 1 had
health awhile longer, I could pull things
straight again. It was my great ambition,
t- that our nation should recover its glory
,{ and prosperity on the seas. I wanted to
. prove that we could do business on our
' own bottoms, and that other nations with
' less resources were not morn sagacious and
, enterprising on the seas. I bavo Riven my
life and my fortune to that end. and even
in the presence of the calamity, I am
proud of what John Roach hasaccom'
plished."
J In tegard to his contracts with the (?ov^
ernment, Mr. Roach said:
"I tell you, my friend, that those boats
' were condemned before their keels were
laid. They were condemned in Congress. '
The Democracy dared not oppose the plan j
of a new navy; because it had become a '
very papular notion. The people as a 1
. mass wanted a navy, lift they (the Democrats,)
opposed the appropriation be- 1
cause, as they claimed in their Congress- <
ional speeches, the iftonoy would not be
' nonesuy spent. me appropriation was *
[ mode against this clamor, anu Bids for the 1
work were asked for. Mine was the low- .
' est bid, because I had far greater facilities
; for the work than any other ship- '
builder. I secured the contracts, and be,
gan the work of construction. in the
meantime, the Democracy had come into
power, and prepared to j>rove their proph- c
, ecy that the appropriation was not lion- v
estly spent. The Dolphin, a strong, substantial,
excellent vessel, was condemned 1
on ttio most puerile technicalities, and, to .v
add to this injustice, Mr. Garland lias rc- "
; pudiated the contract and practically said n
that there exists no binding agreement r
between mo nnd the Government That r
capped the climax. Consequently, in the 6
best interests of my creditors and the Gov- J
ernmeut, I judged it best to call a halt, }:
pay olT my men and surrender my prop- 1
ertv to trustees, who could pay my debts l'
and leave me wnatbalance thero miuht be
for my last days."

I morning prints an interview with Wil!
liam H. Vanderbilt in regard lo the nego.
tiatioos for a settlement of tho diAcuities
' between the New York Central and the
Pennsylvania roads, 31 r. Vanderbilt said
| that he as yet knew but little'as to the dotails
of what had already been done in
i that direction, but added:
, "I atn told that pretty fair progress has
I been made, and that no serious obstacles
I have bean fouudyot; but the matt era are J
so complicated and intricate that I would *
, not like to shv whether I think the nego- J
- tiations will be successful or not," J
j In regard to the prevalent rumors that '
some of his a&sooiates in his Pennsylvania f
; enterprises wore unwilling to abandou
' them, Mr. VanderbUtanid: "I don't know
> about that, but 1 have a rather favorable
i report from General McGee and Mr.
i Twombly, who jiwt returned from Phila- ;
delphia. The South Pennsylvania is a t
good investment, and there i? plenty of
business between Pittsburgh and Phila- *
delphia for the road. 1 do not care par- i
' tiuuhnly to give it up, but what I do will j
he for the benefit of all who are with ine, (
' and for tbo public good, toa. when it

must understand that the war is not yet
settled, and will not be until we have the
! West Shore. We woull just as soon light

I have some money. This lighting a bauk,
rupt railway is tedious work, I tell you;
I but uo one shall buy tho West Shoro to
make money out of us, and they shall not
t have any of our roads until we have that
. one. You see, there are a good
1 many things to bo settled before
I the railroad war will be ended. I
, look on tho West Shore road Just as
I I would on a man whose hand I
