PAT SHEEDY IN BKJ LUCK.
The Well-Known Sport Wins $37,000 from the New York Faro Dealers. NKW YORK,*September14—PatSheedy
arrived in town ten days ago from Chicago, where, it is reported, he had hie fingers badly singed while fooling with the Western tiger. He started to wrestle with the big New York faro games that he found going in new and unexpected quarters. It was Sheedy's avowed purpose to get even for his western losses, as, upon a previous experiment when he succeeded in mending the yawning hole in his resources, he adopted that peculiar system against the bank that his friends playfully call the "Boston snap." He played at the tables of the four biggest games in town, and the Gotham dealers discovered that the Boston system was cleverer than any they had, and kept steadily losing to their old-time patron. Sheedy began by taking a cool §5,000 in one of his prolonged battles at a down-town table from "Dink" Davis, who plays a system himself and made $50,000 by it not long ago. He also hit A1 Davis, another well-known dealer, for $10,000. One night last week while at a game a stranger in the group of players discovered Sheedy's identity and started in to make exactly the same plays that he did. The stranger won two or three before Sheedy discovered what he was up to, and then Sheedy deliberately played wild. The stranger, who had heard of Sheedy wonderful luck the previous few days, kept right on copying until he had dropped all his cash and was forced to retire. Then Sheedy returned to his system again, and made the banker tired. Up to last night Sheedy was reported to be $3/,000 ahead. One house alone has paid out to him §17,000.
A Holy Decree on the K. of L, (Juestion. NKW YORK, September 14.—A Rome
telegram to the Catholic News announces that a decree of the holy office on the Knights of Labor question, favorable to that organization, has been forwarded to Cardinal Gibbons. It will be remembered that in April, 1887, his holiness, concurring with the ideas set forth in the letter of Cardinal Gibbons in favor of the Knights, decided that there was no cause for action. The pope also decided that in Canada, where a mandament had been issued against the Knights, the members of the order could receive absolution or promise of obedience to future decisions of the Holy See. The matter having beep placed before the holy office, this decree is the result. It settles for good the question as far as Rome is concerned, provided, of course, that its constitution and laws of the order remain the same.
Ate Their Own Children.
OTTAWA, Ont., September 14.—Late advices from the Northwest report great suffering and many deaths from starvation among the Indians of the Canadian northwest territories. From the Peace river district several cases of cannibalism are reported, where, to save their own lives, heads of families have killed and eaten their children. Last season parliament voted the sum of $354,000 for supplies for the destitute treaty Indians of the Northwest, but from what has been learned it appears that dishonest agents, who were intrusted with ite distribution, have appropriated the greater portion of the grant. Gabriel Dumont, Kiel's lieutenant, has again been attempting to stir bad feeling

STRAY INFORMATION?
Mr. Fred Rose, the real estate agent, became engaged in conversation with a transient picture peddler the other day, and the latter condemned the city of Terre Haute as totally void of business life, adding that he could not sfell his pictures. Mr. Roes immediately took issue with him upon the main proposition. He said that the stranger was not acquainted with the city. "He said: "I am somewhat in your condition. The people here do not buy real eetate rapidly enough to please my desire. Yet I know the city, and know that what you say is a mistake. I do not judge the place by the standpoint afforded by my business exclusively. I will inform you that there is not a city of 40,000 inhabitants in Indiana or adjoining states that has a more substantial business volume than has Terre Haute. For proof I will refer you to the fact that there are in our midst 2,000 persons who are paying for homes by weekly and monthly payments and that there are as many laborers here who receive good wages and as steady employment as in any city of this size in the state, and that we have more manufacturing establishments than any of our neighbors of equal size, and if any of our citizens should wish to borrow money, a half million of dollars or even more can be borrowed here at home with substantial security." The picture man had no more to say.
Carrying concealed weapons has become too prevalent and should be soverely punished. In police court yesterday morning three prisoners were charged with drunkenness. One of them was charged with drawing a dangerous weapon in the shape of a 38 -calibre pistol. He was fined upon both charges. A man who is a total abstainer from drink has no use for a pistol on his person, much lees one who at times becomes intoxicated and is liable in a drunken moment to take a life or seriously wound some one. There is a law against the carrying of weapons and it should be enforced in order to put an end to the practice which seems to be increasing at an alarming rate. This city will become as rough and rowdy as some of the frontier towns if the practice keeps on increasing.
Political discussions at the court house now and then wax warm. There are a number of candidates in the building and there is more or less campaigning. Those who are up for re-election are commissioners Henderson and Dickerson, and Sheriff Weeks. Deputy Treasurer Conzman is a candidate for treasurer. Charley Jones, janitor, and John Grimminger, deputy sheriff, when they meet usually have a big political argument. They met in the corridor a few days ago and the tariff arguments reverberated throughout the building. At length Bailiff Uncle Jimmie Tolbert heard the loud
toneB
and as they dis
turbed the court he went into the corridor and in the name of the state of Indiana commanded the two men to desist in their efforts to convienc by loudness of tone.
The story is told of how a number of men lost a valuable log below town. A huge piece of walnut timber was caught adrift in the river. It was valued at from $75 to a $100 and a handful of men were gathered together. The log was secured and towed to a sand bar and grounded. Block and tackle were then used and the log was rolled fifty yards up the bank so that it could conveniently be placed on a log wagon. Thinking the log was secure they left, but when they returned the next day the log had disappeared. It had been hauled off by some one, and at last accounts had not been located. Moral for river men: When you beach a walnut log don't stop until it is at a sawmill.
A colored dish washer at Sage's restaurant had a somewhat remarkable fall several nights ago. He was at leisure for a short time, and perched himhimself in a window of the second story, above the alley. While in a doze he fell out of the window. He picked himself up, pulled himself together and said he wasn't hurt. He did not receive even a scratch, and the only damage was a slightly injured wrist. He resumed his dish washing, but will not again climh into a window to doze.
The work at St. Joseph's new school is progressing rapidly. The basement has been excavated and masons are now at work laying the foundations. They will be of concrete and substantial in every particular. The Rev. Father McEvoysaid yesterday that the school is now being held in the building south of the church and is getting along nicely. There are about two hundred children in attendance. Of these there area number of boarders.
The plans and specifications for the new city building to be used as police headquarters are at the city clerk's office, and e^er since the council adopted them and called for bids, many contractors and builders have been looking over them. The estimated cost by the city engineer is $6,000. When heating apparatus and other matters are considered outside of the estimate, the cost ascends, and Mayor Kolsem's estimate of $10,000, seems to be none too high.
Every workingman should hear John Jarrett at the wigwam to-night.

All of the bull news and all of the bull manipulation exerted In wheat had but a temporary effect. The bull news was very plenty. Nat Jones sent a very bullish dispatch from New York which gave his opinions as viewed from a stock operator's standpoint, and there were clearances from the three Atlantic ports of wheat and flour equal to 393,UOO bushels wheat. In addition, Brosseau received word that eleven boat-loads of old No. 2 Chicago wheat had been bought In New York by millers at 2c under December prices. Boyd Bros.' Minneapolis correspondent wired: "The northwest situation Is settled beyond any question. It Is worse than the most conservative had any idea or, and the crop will be 30,000,000 bushels short In Minnesota and Dakota and 50 per cent, poorer In quality than last year." Advices from the president of the Detroit board and from St. Louis correspondents of Jones-Kennett-Hopkins were that receipts of winter wheat were falling off and that a material decrease In receipts might soon be looked for. December whea was worked up to 9HAc when the bull talk was circulating the most freely, but at noon It was again back to 90%c and trading had again quieted down.
By noon October corn was down to 43Mc. Hutchinson as well as the balance of the local holders were evidently afraid of the large receipts as there was a general unloading of long corn. Foreigners bought the May future more or less freely eaaly in the session. Estimate receipts for to-morrow are 725 cars.
Provisions were rathe' dull. There was a slight firming up of October and more than a corresponding letting down In Januury pork prices. The yellow fever talk seemed to have a tendency to check business.

No Material Change in Wheat Values and L,ittle Important Trading. CHICAGO, September 14.—The public cables quoted the Liverpool wheat market dull and Vfed per cental lower, but the temper of the crowd seemed a little more bullih In spite of the news. December wheat opened Uc off at 90ttc, but sold at 91Mic, almost immediately afterward. October corn opened a fraction lower at 441&C. The receipts were 8*1 cars more than were expected There was higher hog market at the yards, but thedemaDdfor October pork was very limited and the first sale was 10c off at $1415. January pork opened unchanged at $13.90.
While the trade in wheat was not heavy, and while It was also largely professional In character, there was little Indication of weakness, in fact It looked as though the heavy players were trying to get a break to buy on. Hutchinson was selling and so were Robert Warren and William Dunn, though it was believed that the two last named were working on orders for local parties who were anxious to give out the Impression that the "foreigners were selling." December wheat sold down to 90%a90iic on the first selling pressure, but was soon up again to the vicinity of 91c. Schwartz-Dupee were large buyers during the early trading. Corn was undeniably weak. It was the popular impression In the pit that Hutchinson was selling through Baldwin-Farnum and others all the market would readily take. October declined to 437^c during the first hour, but the selling pre sure was not great below 44c. January iork sold oil to $13 70 and back to $13 75 before the "30 call.
