LARAUIE , Wyo , , Hopt , " . Late report
from the scone of tha Chinese riots at Ilocl
Springs show that thirty-four Mongols wor
either shot down or burned to death , Fiv
more bodies have been recovered from tin
ruins of Chinatown , The bodies were rootoc
by hogs from under the dirt which constitute !
the roof of the building. No effort baa ye
been made to thoroughly search the ruins fo
victims. It is believed that a systematii
search would reveal the bodies of other vic
tims.
tims.The
The fact has been developed that miner ,
tcok ad vantage of tlie attack upon the Chinesi
to commit the most gross robberies. Man }
of the victims had their pockets emptied eri
the pnlse bad ceased to beat , and nil tin
buildings were pillage J bcforothaincondi&ry'i
torch was applied.
Miners at Alma , near Kvanston , ordered
the Chinese to leave but the arrival of troopi
prevented any open demonstration againsi
them. It Is believed that then ) will be nc
further trouble aa long at the soldiers remain ,
but the mlnora swear that the must go even
tually.
Additional arrests of those who participa
ted in the riots have been made. A doega !
tion of miners left for Omaha Saturday tr
present their grievances to the managers ol
tbe Union 1'jidfic.
The general belief is that no matter how
much the company might like to got the Chi
nese back , they could not be induced to come.
Tney have been BO thoroughly frightened that
nothing can tempt them to return , while the
news of their treatment will spread rapidly
among tbo Chinese all over tbo country and
prevent them taklnir their places.
The fooling in the mining camps is best
shown by the following editorial in tha Evanston -
ston Chief tan : "The tune has now come , the
fruit is now ripe and should be gathered to
gether and sent back to the country from
whence it came , to live , dlo and rot
on soil that gave it birth. Therefore ,
lot us awake to a sense of our duty , lot us
expel the vile lepers which are preying upon
our country , sapping the life blood from our
industries , Injuring our families , ruining our
youths , casting blemishes on our fair daugh
ters , and making us feel as though a blot wa ?
being cast upon this great republic , Arisa ,
brother laborers , put your shoulders to the
wheel , and with united action from east to
west let the good work go on until we have
wiped out this evil , and keep at work until
the last Chinaman places his foot upon a
vessel that bears him toward the setting
"

GIIETENHE , Wyo. , Sept. 7. Sheriff Sweat-
water , of this county , arrested twenty-two
supposed leaders of the Hock Springs' riots ,
including Isaiah Whltohomo , membar-clect
of tha legislature. They were taken to Green
River county , Utah , jail , and will have a pre
liminary hearing to-morrow. More arrests
will follow. The charges against the pris
oners are murder , arson , rioting and robbsry ,
The rnlna of Chinatown have not yet been
searched , and no more dead bodies yet dis
covered. It is estimated now tbat the num
ber killed is about fifty , including those who
died of their wounds in the surrounding hills.
All Chinamen at work In the Almy coal
mines near Kranston , numbering 400. have
boon taken to the latter p'aca under an escort
of United States troops. A galling gun was
sent from hero to ISvanston yesterday. The
military , under command of Col , Anderson ,
Ninth United States infantry , are stationed
at Rock Springs , Evaneton and Almy , guardIng -
Ing the company's property. No further
trouble apprehended ,
WASHINGTON , Sept. 7. Gen. Schofiold
telegraphs Gen. Drum from thosceno of the re-
centanti-Chlneso demons ( rations Iu Wyoming
as follows : 4 < No reportof further trouble since
troops arrived. None likely to occur in the
presence of troops. I do not see now any
necessity for further Instructionsbalnggiven. "

Drum had a conference with the president to
day in regard to the troubles in Wyoming ter
ritory nnd gave him an account of the stops

ing would be done by the representative of
the Chinese government hero in the matter of
the recent massacre of Chinese at Rock
Springs , Wyoming , until a report of the oc
currence had bnon received from the Chinese
consul at Sin Francisco. When such report
was recehod , he said , tbo question of bring
ing tha case to tha attention of this govern
ment would be considered. Thus far there
had been no correspondence upon the sub
ject between tlia minister and tbo consul at
San Franclico , The return of the minister
to Wathlngton , he added , was not beciuie of
this trouble , but simply because his vacation
was at an end.

U the outgrowth of an effort to have an
annual holiday for the working Classen of the
country , and wai conducted hero under the
auspices of the trade and labor assembly , In
arranging for tbe demonstration it was
decided not to allow the red II ig
of Iho socialists to be carried , and
prevented n > o.nnter-movement on the
I rt of the anarchists , who paraded
yesterday. In the column to-day the Amer
ican colors only were displayedt together with
banners of the various societies , and a few
improvised bauners.emblazoued witlimottoes ,
demanding that eight hours should constitute
a working day , and denouncing convict labor.

makers , coopers , birrel makers , carpenters ,
iiorse sheers , iron moulders , tanncri , wool

he requisition to pay the salary of J. A , J.
Ireawcll , government counsel before tbe court
ommlssloners of Alabamaclalms , for month of
f August , until it is settled that there Is any
alanco duo him , The first comptioller takes
be ground that Mr. C res well is not entitled
D a fixed salary of $3,000 per annum , but that
hat sum la named as the limit of
ees to be allowed him for trial of cases , He
a ] B that the law organizing the court pro-
idod that the government counsel should re-
olve a reasonable compensation for each case
rled , and that subsequent laws limited such
omponaatlon to § 8,030 per annum. The
ourt , however , lie says , neglected to fix the
mount of "reasonable compensation , " and
bat it has illegally treated tbat Item as a
xed salary.
Lii American Oonmil'a Itoport of the
Cholera at Maraclllog ,
WASHINGTON , Sept , 7. Consul Mason , at
larseillei , has sent to the state department a
urther report , dated August 27 , on the cbol-
ra epidemic. lie says :
"Accepting the statistics as now published
ere they are undoubtedly quite below the
ruth. Deaths from Asiatic cholera In Mar
elites since the 2Jth inst. Inclusive , num-
iered by days , are as follows : 46 , 10 , 40 , 45 ,
5 , 39 , 27. Total deaths from all causes dtir-
ng the same days : 102,118 , 92 , 73 , 88 , 70 , C3 ,
Nils , considering that tbe normal death rate
f Marseilles it less than thirty per day , is n
rightful record , and shows that typhui and
yphold fevers are ravaging this reeking city
nth a vehemence scarcely less deadly than
hat of cholera itself. "
Mr. Mason soys that tha departures from
he city number aout 2,000 per day , butthero
as been no panic like that of 1881 , the public
lind having boon gradually prepared for
evelopments which for a time were suppressed
y the city government and tha press. With
Ue exception of perhaps four or five com para-
tvely new and handsome streets , the pestl-
: neo has this year invaded every part of the
lunicipallty and its subuibj. Cholera
as diminished notably in some
f tbo streets and quarters where It
rst appeared a month ago , and this , with a
lowly increasing but itlll small percentage of
uei tbat recover , ara tha only present Indi-
ations that the pestilence has epent its most
lallgnant force.
The newest peculiarity of tha cholera , both
t Toulon and Marseilles , Mr. Mason says , is
tendency to complication at an turly stage
pith typhoid fever , a combination from which
aw patients are ever rescued ,

crowded with people who have come to vit-
nees the race for the American cup , between
the British yacht Genesta and the American
yacht Puritan , Early this morning the wind
was light from the tnst , but calmed down ,
however , and is now hardly enough to fill n
sail. The prospects nre hero will not ba wind
enough for a race. The ocean course is quite
smooth ,
10 a. m. The wind Is BOW four miles an

to day. There is little wind. The contesting
yachts are still around Scotland Lights. The
iloops are ready , tbo wind is rather light , the
weather is still cloudy but pleasant ,
At an early hour this morning the river
fronts were covered by a small army of well
iressed men , most of whom carried overcoats
ind marine glassas slung over their shoulders ,
Many ladies were with the men , and the des-
; innton of all was the yaht race. Numarous
ixcunion tnat ? , wh ch w > ro gaily decorated

Richmond , carried away n number of passen
gers , One of the boats had tn board a nutn-
ier of carrier pigeons which will bo liberated
it certain periods to boar information of the
nanner in which the race is progressing. The
> etting , which last night favored the Gonestn ,
bitted this morning to ? G3 to 70 to 3100 in
aver of the Puritan.
The wind Is light from the northeast ,
veather hazy. It is doubtful if there will be
my race to-day. The Puritan is being sailed

The Il co l/oitpuiicil ,
NEW YORK , Sept. 7. Owing to the lato-
, eB8 of the start of the initial race between
he Genesta and the Pcritan , and to lack of
ilnd afterwards , tha yachts succeeded to-day
a making only half the course , or twenty
ulles. In this twenty miles beat to wind
ward , tha Puritan squarely out sailed the
ienesta one mile in ten and nearly two miles
a twenty. A baza settled upon the bay all
nornlng , and there was no wind from any
uarter until nearly noon , A hundred Balls
f yachts lay in the horseshoe of Bandy

Tha Genesta remained in the hortenhoa
vhlle Mr. William Krehs. of the New York
acbt club , representing the Puritan , was put
in board from the judge's boat. She then
iroceeded under port tack to tbe lightship.
L'he English cutter was also saluted by a
arge fleet of yachts now under weigh , The

IVo hundred aod seventeen vessels of all
Jzes and rigs were assembled within a milecf

After a tedious wait of two long hours , after
the arrival of the contestants at tha light-ship ,

wcbt oi the light-ship , to pivo the Geuesta
and Pnrltan clear water to start in ,
Tha wind had corao in from the southeast ,
a moderate broaze , shortly after 1 o'clock , and
was hailed with delight by tbouundi of en.
thusiaitic spectators on the steamers , who hi
paid from one to three dollars a head to i
tha great contest. * > , MI\
The skillful management ot lha skippers
both yachts brought them close enough to tl
line between thejndgb's boat and tha llghtch
on port tack to cross in n few seconds aft
the starting * signal The Puritan Biipp (
ncross first , close up to the judgei boat i
1:35 G5-100 , but for some reason Captain Co
tor , of the Cionosta , tacked to the stnrboai
just before reaching It , losing 1:42 , and belr
handicapped thirty-Raven seconds thereb' '
She crossed at 1:37 : 37-100 , official time. Cn ]
tain Cracker , of the Puritan , whoso boi
looked very bnndiomo with her malnsal
sprit top sail , fore staysail , jib nnd jib topsn
set , meant "fight" from the start At th
moment the Genoita crossed the line , th
Puritan cimo about , and In thirty seconds h
flew away on starbanrdtack , with the Geuest
a hundred yards on her lee beam.
The course was right "in the wind's eye ,
southeast , and a tug htd started ten minute
before to log out the twenty miles to wind
w.ud , and place n stake buoy for the yacht
to round. Cheered on by shouts from hun
dreds of spectator * , and followed by an im
manse flotilla of pleasure cralt , the two con
tpstants headed dne east on their first roach
Finding thst ho could neither pass the Puri
tan to the leeward , nor "outpoint" him , Capt
Carter , after twenty-three minutes , sudden ! '
put the Goncata about to cross tha Puritan
( tern. But Capt. Crocker put his helm dowj
at once , bringing his handsome white slooi
round forty socondsjater. The Genestn wai
full of trick * , for round tha came again it
loss than a minute , followed by the Purltat
a atn In fifty seconds. Both yacht * were car
rying exactly the same canvas ,
Instead of gaining by the little skirmist
which ho inaugurated , Captain Carter hat
lost and the Puritan had gained a decidoc
advantage. Both yachts went about nt:0 ! ! : ;
nud reached to Ronthward , having made nbtml
eight mlloj _ of casting on starboard tack
Now the Puritan began to rapidly cpan a gat
between herself and the Genesis , nnd whet
they next tacked to eastward at 4:11 : , she wai
fully three-fourths of a mile to windward ol
her antagonist , and one-eighth of a milt
ahead , At 0:11 : bath tacked to southward
again , and now the Geucsta was over a miU
In the Puritan's lee quarter ,
The both "walked"

superior ppcod of these boats aacoinparod wltl

\rrived at the outer mark , it was sundown ,
The wind was growing lighter and the yacht :
l)3ing ) than two miles to leeward , It wa :
evident that the raca cculd not bo sailed
.vithiu the lequired time limit of seven hours ,
10 tha regatta committee ordered It posponetj
mill to-morrow , when the boats will start nt
.ho same hour and over a similar conrsa. All
iccompanying yacbta turned back before dark ,
ind the Genostaand Puritan were towed bicli
; o the horseshoe. The result of to day's con <
est is thought by experienced men to be con'
rlncing proof that the Puritan can beat the

ogress Is baing made , Frosts have been ox-
irieccad in many localities , but none of euf-
: ient severity to do any Injury to corn. At
lis writing ( September 7) ) we judge that
tree-fourths of the corn of the cntlro country
past danger from frost. Of the remaining
urth fully half is so far advanced that a frost
bich simply cuts the loaves within , freezing \
testalkBoai to burst the cells , would do it
) Injury beyond Injury to tbo fodder. This
aves but one-eighth of tbo crop in nny dan-
ir. Kvory day without n froeza Icasens the
