First Crop of the Settlers a Failure Letter from the President. Washington, Aug. 8. The President today sent to Congress a letter from Gov. Steele, of 'Oklahoma, representing that great distress prevails among the residents of the Territory, and requesting that the attention of Congress he called to the fact. The President, in transmitting tho letter, says: "Information received by me from other sources leads me to believe Governor Steele is altogether right in his impression that there will be. unless relief is afforded either by public appropriation or by organized in dividual effort, wide-spread suffering among the settlers in Oklahoma. Many of these people expended in travel and in providing shelter for tneir families all of their accumulated means. The crop prospects for this year are. by reason of drought, unfavorable, and the ability of the Territory itself to provide re-' lief must be inadequate during this year. I am advised that there is an unexpendod balance Of about $45,000 of tho fund appro priated for the-relief of the sufferers bv Hood upon tho Mississippi river and its tributaries, and I recommend that author ity be given to use this fund to meet the most urgent necessities of the poorer peo ple in Oklahoma. &teps have been taken to more particularly learn the condition of the people throughout the Territory, and if a larger relief should seem to be necessary the facts will be submitted to Congress."

MINOR MATTERS. , " Ways and Means Committee Not In Love with the Sab-Treasury Scheme. Washington, Aug. 8. The Farmers' Alliance sub-treasury hill iigured to-day before tho ways and means committee in connection with a resolution introduced last week by Representative Wheeler, pro viding for its report and consideration. Inasmuch as the resolution seemed to propose a trenching upon the prerogatives of the committee on rules by the ways and means committee in the clause setting apart a day for the consideration of the bill, and for the further reason that owing to delav in its delivery to the committee the date lixed for consideration of the bill had already been passed, the resolution itself was laid aside without action. The discussion this morning, however, failed to develop a kindly feeling toward t ie Alliance bill on the part of the committee. Complimented for Efficiency. Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

ANOTHER MUTINY. British Soldiers at Chatham Disobey Or dersAlarm In Military Circles. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. London, Aug. 8. Decided alarm has heen caused in the highest army circles by a mutiny in the garrison at Chatham. In this case a number of men belonging to the Army Service Corps refused to parade, not, however, on the ground of any complaint against their commissioned officers, hut al leging that the non-commissioned officers imposed needless and vexatious tasks without authority from their superiors. The mutineers went further than the Second Regiment of Grenadiers, who were guilty of nothing more than disobedience of orders, and when personally appealed to obeyed the summons of their commanders. The soldiers at Chatham not only refused to parade, but barricaded themselves in , a' store-house and attempted to resist . arrest. A formidable force was at once marched to the spot, and bloodshed would havefol1UWCU il&U UUb IUO UIUWUCCIO UCCU UYClawed into surrender. The ringleaders were put into rigorous confinement and promptly court-martialed and sentenced to imprison ment for a month. ; There is a seneral public feeling that something is rotten in army circles, when such demonstrations appear necessary to obtain a redress of grievances, as tho army rules nominally afl'ord opportunity for a hearing in a legitimate wav. The private soldiers claim, however, that any soldier who would aare to accuse his superiors. even when invited to do so at the regular inspection, would be subjected to persecution, if not to punishment. Publio senti ment strongly demands the resignation as commander-in-chief of the Duke of Cambridge, uncle of the Queen, as utterly incapacitated to deal with modern military conditions. It is said that but for her Majesty's influenco the present govern ment would have abolished tho office of commander-in-chief. CENTRAL AMERICAN DISORDERS. Pursuing: Guatemalan Traitors Prospect of an Early Peace. Guatemala City, Aug. 8. Martinez Sobral, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, has been thrown into prison hy President Barillas, charged with being a traitor, he having been detected in secret communica tion with Salvador. Many claim: he re sorted to this for self-preservation, fearing the downfall of the present government. It is rumored that the revolutionist Irun gary was killed in battle. Barrundia, who is a candidate for the presidency, fhas crossed the frontier near San Benito Soconusco with a small following. The troops have ueen sent to intercept nis advance. Fighting is looked for any time. At the City of Mexico it is thought that Guatemalan troubles will be amicablv settled. Salvador will claim the right of representation to all loreign countries. and demand tnat xoroign ministers from each country be stationed in Salvador, in stead of one for all five republics, as now. Nothing has been heard from Misener. Tho United States man-of-war Thetis left San Jose for La Libertad. News of Our L,ot Minister. San Francisco, Aug. 8. Dr. William G. Misener, son of the United States minister to Central America,who is now in this city, is in receipt of late letters from his father. Dr. Misener says: ln the last letter re ceived my father states that a number of American citizens had taken refuge at the United States legation in Guatemala city. There are not over twenty-five or thirty Americans there, and the legation is in a position to take care of them alL All of the Americans in Central America have heen invited to stay at the legation during the troubles. Supplies were obtained be fore the war was declared, and a stock nec essary for a long siege was secured. Prescient Barrillas inspects every telegram that leaves the country, and most of the letters leaving the country are also examined. If Secretary Blaine has not received official news from my father it is because Presi dent Barrillas suppressed his telegrams. Several native citizens of Guatemala, some of them ladies, havo taken out United States naturalization papers in order to receive tho protection of the legation. Bar rios, who sailed from here on the steamer San Jose for Guatemala, is very popular mere, anu suouiu uarriuas retire, iiarrios is certain to be the next President A dispatch from the City of Mexico savs: Expected dispatches will come from Misener, American minister to (Guatemala, todav. It is understood he has left Guateirfala on the United States man-of-war Ranger for Salvador, where he can com mnuicate with Washington by cable. He will probably land at Acajutla. Tho true inwardness of the reasons for non-receipt of dispatches from Misener will then bo ex plained. Mexican papers are very bitter against Misener, and say he has shown undue partiality all along to Guatemala. The Dvmpathies here are nil with Salvador. The fact is. either Misener would not answer telegrams from Washington, or else the Gautemalan government has deliber ately suppressed or detained them. Geroninio, confidential agent of Salvador. has a dispatch continuing the news of the

These two generals were traitors who sided with Rivas, who was shot. They haye escaped to Honduras.

SAYED BY TRAMPS. , How an Effort to Wreck the Lake Shore Limited with Dynamite Was Foiled. Erie, Pa., Aug. 8. The Lake Shore limited, while running near Miles Grove, west of Erie, came near being wrecked by two dynamite fiends at an early hour this morning The limited is the fastest train on the Lake Sho e and when it left Erie every sleeper w s filled. But for the bravery and humanity of two tramps. all the passengers would probably have been hurled to death down a steep embankment into Walnut creek. The two nomads, while walking west on the lookout for a freight, saw two welldressed men ahead acting suspiciously. The tramps saw the other men take a package from a wrapper and place it under the rail. Tho tramps say they crept tip to the track to the spot and found a large dynamite cartridge placed so that the flange of tho car wheel would hit the cap. Hurrying back to the depot they gave the alarm, and one of ' them took the danger signal-lamp and rushing down the track, swung it until he brought the Limited to a standstill The train was stopped and a search was made for the cartridge and fiends. The death-dealing instrument was found, but the would-be wreckers had disappeared. The trainmen emptied their pocketa into the hands of the tramps and the conductor took their names. The passengers were kept in ignorance of their danger until today. Bad Wreck in Texas. SriERMAN, Tex.; Aug. 8.

The Herald is informed and. believes that the statements in this article are without foundation and untrue." Fish for Indiana Streams. To the Editor ot the Indianapolis Journal: In accordance with previous arrangements, I came here to receive and forward to Indiana a consignment of indigenous -fishes allotted to the State Fish Commissioner and other parties in the State. I rind Mr. N. W. Simmonds, of the United , States Fish Commission, here in charge of 1 his distributing car and aiding Hon. S. P. Bartlett, special agent for the distribution of indigenous fishes for this district Tho catch began about two weeks since and tho third car-load was received this morning. The supplies are obtained by a gang of men with seines in the Illinois river, em' ployed by the United States Fi6h Commissioner, near Meredosia, and consist principally of bass from four to eight inches in length, together with croppies, ring perch, spotted catfish and goggle-eyes. A car will carry from 3,000 to 4,000, depending, of course, upon the size of the fish, and. by reducing the temperature of the water in the tanks to GO degrees a United States fish car is so arranged as to carry them great distances with comparatively small loss. Consignments have been ordered from Washington,throughmemberrof Con gress,as follows: Howard & Jenkins, St. Paul, for Clifty, Flat Kock and Sand creek; Jas. P.Applegate, New Albany; J. M. Dresser, Lafayette, for Wabash river; K. M. Hord, Shelbyville, for Shelby county; Alvin Moore. Flat Rock; Geo. C. Derlan. LaPorte, and for several private ponds at Fort Wayne, Clark's Hill and Indianapolis. I intend to accompany the car to LaPorto and Klkiiart; then by the C, W. 3t M. to Gosben, Warsaw, Wabash, Marion and Anderson, which will exhaust the first car-load. 1 think it quite right to give White river a liberal share at Anderson. It will probably be some ten days before I shall get my first car-load started, as the extreme hot weather makes it very difiicult to handle the fish safely and keep them alive. My second car-load will go hence via tho Pig Four to Lafayette, Indianapolis and Shelbyville and intermediate points. The work being done here is on an extensive scale, the shipments reaching Iowa, Indian Territory, Kansas. Michigan. Missouri. Montana, Jsew Mexico, Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, North and South Dakota, etc. Much the largest part of the catch is of black bass, and as these are by far tho most valuable variety, the benefit derived from tho work at this point is simply of incalculable value. I am in the highest degree gratified by the facilities thus afiorded me in my ellorts to stock our lakes and streams, and am under the the greatest obligations to Mr. Partlett, whoso broad liberality in dealing with the representative of Indiana is all that 1 could ask. I indulge the hopo that our citizens generally will, in view of this extensive and well-directed cllort to restock and restore our water, give their moral and their personal infiuence to tho enforcement of our wholesome laws and aid in protecting the fish and game of tho State W.
