JOY FOE BOOMERS.

IN ANOTHER MONTH THEY WILL POS8ESS THE LAND.

Thonsands Living In Tents Aloug the Borders of the Cherokee Strip Ontll the Signal It Given—Many of the On-j employed Will Join In the Kmh.

CALDWELL, Kan., July 31.—The thousands of boomers on the border of the Cherokee strip heard with pleasure yesterday that another month will find them in the promised land, in possession of good homes, if lucky, or out in the cold if unfortunate in making selections. Although Secretary Hoke Smith is in the northweBt, in' President "Jim" Hill's private car, his assistant secretary, Mr. Sims, is pushing the details -nth vigor. Mr. Sims thinks that Sent. 1 will l.e the day set in the President's proclamation, which will be issued very soon after he gets back to Washington from Gray Gables

The boomers on the border spent the day in celebrating, and a fortnight will find all of the outfits ready to move. Word has been received here that 1,000 southern Missourians left Carthage in the zinc mining region Friday, beaded for the new land. They have 200 wagons and a great deal of stock. The poverty that is now prevailing over the southwest has put a new light on the opening. It will add hundreds of new boomers in the camps along the southern line of Kansas and will put an altogether new element into the rush. In former openings only farmers and cowboys have figured extensively in the vast mob of home seekers, but in ihe Cherokee opening hundreds of miners and smelter workers from Colorado, men who have their home and tamilies in that state, will join the mad rush for the land. These men have dropped off trains on the Santa Pe and Rock Island roads by the hundreds within the past week and are getting work at 82 a day in the harvest fields within fifty miles of the Cherokee border.

The counties in the Cherokee strip have been laid off and now will come the contest for the land offices. The leading citizens of Guthrie, the largest town in Oklahoma, want Hoke Smith to adhere to the original policy of the administration to concentrate the land office service. Politicians are working hard for ne .v offices up in the strip,because that will make new berths for party followers.

About 10,000 boomers are now camped along the Bouthern Kansas line, within five miles of it. This string of squatters stretches east and weBt for 200 miles, and in no place are the tents more than three or four deep. They stretch along in this way in order that.all will have an even start when the rush comes. Most of the country in southern Kansas is absolutely open, and on this at least 6,000 of these squatters settled in the early part last winter. It was feared that there would be great loss of life,but the death rate was small. With the opening of spring they bought or begged a little seed and put in small crops on the ground, about and north of the great latitudinal line. Rains have been bountiful and the crops have thrived, so that the povertystricken boomers of the wet and unpromising spring are now cheerful and well-to-do. The advancing price of hay is good for them, for the crop of that product is much greater than they will need. This will provide them with a little extra money, which they will want badly enough before they get a crop on their new lands in the strip.

A journey along the border jmst now presents a sight rarely seen in this or any other country. The narrow line of tents, as white as snow under the regular rains of the summer, stretch away on the prairie until they are lost on the horizon. By the side of the tents are the tiny wheat, corn and barley fields, looking almost like the great truck patches that one sees near all the leading cities. Then, a little farther north, is the prairie again. This is the condition for 200 miles.

BANK TELLER STEALS SIO.OOO

Took 810 Bills from Packages and Keplaced Them with Ones. PATTERSON, N. J., July 31.—A defalcation of $10,650 has been discovered in the cash of the First national bank of this city. The money has been abstracted since July 1. The loss was discovered by United States Bank Exa miner George W. Stone in an official examination last Friday. He informed the officers of the bank and went before Alfred Van Hovenberg, commissioner of the Circuit court of New Jersey and made a complaint against Abram Fardon, the paying teller. The latter was arrested last evening and committed to the county, jail. The money was taken from] four packages containing 8",000 each. Ten dollar bills were abstracted from them and replaced with 81 bills. The bank is insured with the Fidelity and Casualty company of New York for 810,000, leaving a loss to the bank of only 8650, which on Saturday was charged to profit and loss by the directors.

The defaulting teller is 50 years old and unmarried. He has been connected with the bank for 825 years and some yoa*-s ago was cashier of it. He has always been considered an upright man and had the confidence of the officers and depositors of the bank. He admitted that he was responsible for the loss of the money and asked that he be committed to prison.

Two Drowned in Rock Kiver. ROCK ISLAND, 111., July 5*1.—Clark H. Buford and Miss Fannie Kudlow each about 21 years of age, were drowned in Rock river Saturday.

PEOPLE'S PARTY CALLED TO TAKE A HAND. *taw

,s*'

Its Members Urged to Do All In Their Power to Defeat What They Style the "International Bond Issuing

Trust"—Urged to Bold Conventions.

BOSTON, Mass., July 31.—George F. Washburn of this city, chairman of the eastern division of the national committee of the people's party, has sent to the chairman of the state committees a circular letter conveying his views on the Silver question. It is in part as follows: "The most gigantic trust the world have ever seen is the present international bond-issuing and silver-boy-cotting syndicate. The most colossal conspiracy the world has ever known is the present one originated and guided by Baron Rothschild. Their silver scheme is an attempt to enslave a whole world and in a wholesale manner swindle and plunder (Jorf own people. 'The first step in this int'^ plot on the part of the usurer-' to still further corner our here in America, and then u--.. -a issuance of bonds as a meii *. "If half the population i,"« use silver and if half tl rency is and always h."""' how can we increase our circulation by cutting dov of the amount? If a man forced to live on two meager a day and complained of ffceliny n-lf-starved, who but a gold btig would dream of advising him to eat only one meal per diem as a sure cure for hunger? "This gold trust, which comprises the leading bankers and usurers of all countries under the generalship of a Europenn Jew, is capable of anything. No absurdity is tco absurd for them to offer as an argument no monstrosity too monstrous for them to perpetrate as an act. They are the mbriarchs of crime. Shall! we,' freeborn Americans, we who threw off the political yoke of an English king, bow to the bidding of a few foreign bankers who have bought parliaments and congresses and are trying to dictate our national policy? Let us break this international servitude. Let us rally once more as an American people and demand the restoration of the money of our fathers. "We can drive these foreign money invaders from our shores forever if we begin right now. The solution of the problem is to be found in the money plank of the people's plaiform. Now is our chance to agitate. Rally in attendance at the! silver conventions.

Make clear to the people the fact that

ff

silver goes down g^lf "It will take more labor ?rom the wage-earner, more merchandise from the business man and more wheat, cotton and corn from the farmer than ever before to buy the gold dollars of the bankers, therefore these wealth-producing classes must unite to resist this proposed robbery and oppression."

NO MONEY TO MOVE CHOPS.

Farmers Will Probably Have to Take Cheeks for Their Qraln. ST. PAUL, Minn.,July 31.—The question of how to move the wheat crop of Minnesota and the Dakotas for 1893 is becoming one of great seriousness. Owing to the financial stringency the borrowing power of the grain men has become very limited. The country banks will not lend and the money to be had is but a mere fraction '-hat has heretofore been used ng the crops. Various plans suggested whereby the eff stringency may be much as possible. Any if will result in the mov •. erops, even though it be -A slowly, must be accepta' .. plan has been proposed a OL,. adopted in some parts of ... Minnesota, and will very probably be generally adopted, as it meets with much favor in business circles as being a practical solution of the question.

The plan is that the grain men issue their checks for grain purchaeed of the farmers, payable fifteen days after date, which would allow time for the collection of drafts against consignments. At some points the banks will not advance money on drafts against consignments, but will only enter such drafts for collection. This plan allows the farmer to carry a large share of the burden. Even with this arrangement the c*p must move very slowly, and farmers who are obliged to sell may find themselves much inconvenienced.

FIRES CAUSiE MUCH ALARM.

Mysterious Conflagrations at Kegnlar Intervals in Evanston. CHICAGO, July 31.—The entire city of Evanston is greatly excited over a mystery which has thus far baffled the utmost diligence of the police and the combined efforts of many of EvanEton's most prominent citizens to dis* cover some avenue to solution.

Every Friday night for the last eight weeks, as regular as the setting of the sun. a barn has been fired and burned, and la6t night at 10:30 the barn of W. A. Paine, who lives at the corner of Judson and Greenleaf ave» nues, was destroyed and no clue ap to the cause of the conflagration was left.

The strange regularity of the fires and the absence of known causes in every case leave no doubt in the minds of the citizens that some incendiary is at work. There is a strong suspicion that a gang of boys are the prime movers in this destruction of property.

Savings Hanks Ask Sixty Days' Notice DANENPORT, Iowa, July 31.—In today's papers the savings banks of Davenport, Rock Island and Moline gave notice that hereafter they will demand sixty days' notice before paying out funds, as provided for by law.

Death of Chancellor Carpenter. DES MOINES, Iowa, July 31.—Chancellor Carpenter of Drake university died here of an abscess of the stomach. He was born in Kentucky and came to Iowa in 1854. He was widely known as an educator.

HAKUIBHURG, Pa, July 31.—It is learned from a semi-officffcl.source that the American tube and iron works, at Middletown will resume operations next week.
