Stilt Berlin to Prevent the Sale of the Union Stock Vurdri. CHICAGO , Juno 13. The anticipated suit to prevent the consummation of the proposed sale for $20,000,000 of the Union stock yards to an English syndicate was commenced be fore Judge Tuley this afternoon. Decidedly sensational charges are made and the court is asked to remove the present oflicers of the corporation , to appoint a receiver and to issue au Injunction restraining the proposed issue of bonds and the sale of the plant aud stock. The complainant in the bill is Frank U. Baker , a dealer in the yards and owner of ICO shares of the capital stock. Ho makes the dofendonts , Nathaniel Thayer of Boston , the company's president ; John B. Sherman , general manager ; George I. Williams , secre tary aud treasurer ; J. C. Denisou , assistant secretary and one of the best known railroad magnates In the United States ; John Newell , Marvin Hughltt. J. M. McCullough , J. C. McMullln , H. D. Stone , It. It. Cable and Stuyvesaiit Fish , directors of the Union stock yards and transit company. Other defendants are Itusscll Monroe and Ulchard Olney , promoters meters of the enterpriso'to buy the yards for .the London contract company , to whom it Is proposed ft ) make the sale ; the Central trust company of New York , to which a mortgage was to bo given , and William 1C. Vanderbilt , Cornelius Vanderbilt , John U Hoxio of Texas and James H. Ashley , who , witll Pres ident Thayer and Manager Sherman , own a majority of'the stock. The bill charges that the defend ants are inspired with the solo inten tion of belling the property for little over half its actual value ; that they then propose to depreciate the value of the stock , and run the property value down until It reaches the minimum. Then , when all the stockholders are frozen out , the manipulators intend to buy the plant and good will for comparatively a mere song. Baker asserts that the stock is tntrin- isically and actually worth $ piOO per share , which It Is p-oposed to sell to the syndicate for $ ir > 0 per share , of which only the bare cash value , $100 , is cash. Among other points made in the bill are that , the purchasing companies , the London contract company and the Central trust com pany , are alien corporations over which the courts hero can have no jurisdiction , and furthermore being British , corporations they have no community of Interest with western stockholders. Judge Tuley referred the matter to the master in chancery for u hearing. National Capital Notes. WASIIINOTON , Juno 13.

RIFLES AND AMMUNITION HAVE ARRIVED , KnituhcrH nnil Co\vl > oyn Unarmed ami Bothers 1'orond to Abandon Their Homes nnd Heck Safety in tlio Towns. MH.KS CITT , Mont. , Juno 1.1. The attitude of the Cheyenne Indiana continues menacing , though no overt net bos occurred since the killing of Ferguson. Owing to the fact that the Indians have loft their reservation nnd are scattered over the country In small par ties , settlers are thoroughly alarmed and are Rending women and children Into the towns In large numbers. Indian lookouts are ou all high points and are constantly signalling by mirror flashes nnd the blanket code. Friendly Indians have reported to the whites that there Is to bo an outbreak and that they are now making medicine , which Is generally accepted to mean they arc waiting to bo Joined by allies from Standing Kock , Sioux nnd Pine KIdge Cheycnnes , to whom messengers have been sent. At the agency of Rosebud , Major Carroll of the First cavalry has three troops of cavalry , and a troop of cavalry nnd three companies of Infantry loft Fort Keogh yesterday to pro ceed up the Ilosebud and co-operate with him. In compliance with the request of the sheriff of this county 100 rifles nud 10,000 rounds of ar.imunition arrived here yesterday In charge of Colonel Curtis , aide to Governor Toolo. The sheriff exacted the arms would be turned over to him for issuance to the set tlers , but Colonel Curtis will not do so unless in case of a great emergency , which ho Is not satistlcd now exists. It has been arranged for Colonel Curtis nnd Stock Inspector Smith to go to Cheyenne agency and confer with Major Can-oil , and on their return report the situation to the governor. The Indians are all well armed with Win chester rifles and government ammunition whllo the ranchers nnd cowboys are unarmed. Calf branding and rounding up has been en tirely stopped owing to this fact. If the In dians could bo disarmed and put back on their reservation , the settlers could take care of themselves , but in the present condition of affairs there seems to bo nothing for them to do but to abandon their homes and business and congregate In the towns.

Barbarity of Indian Butchers. Tlio Indian papers are constantly ilo- claiming against tlio practice among1 natlvo butchers of skinning' goats alive , and the imperfect appreciation of the barbarity of this practice evinced by native magistrates , Bays the London Truth. In ono case recently tlio olTonso was punished by a'llno of twenty rupees , and In another uy line of twonty-llvo ; anil , as lias boon'.inoro than once pointed out , such Rontuii'c"i ! are hopelessly in adequate to 8tor , thjo evil , since the lines are covered ovo/'a'nil ever again by the additional valuij Iwlilch flaying nlivo gives to the skins ! I suspect 'that the natlvo magistrate ' , like the nutiyo butcher , will npVQi' bo made to look at cruelty to animals MIS a Kuropoan looks at it. The most' olToctual means of eradicating tliis.iforin of barbarity would bg to establish pAibliu abattoirs and re strict the slau&btth'iug of animals to them. FCCH or Ui fjljin I'hynIc'InnH.

Dun & Co.'s Weekly He- view of trade says : "Speculation has been of nvlthcr a small or large volume nor of an enthusiastic tone during the past week , but the legitimate business of the country con tinues unprecedented in volume for the sea son and highly encouraging In prospects. There has been quite a decline In exports from New York for two weeks past , the value having been M per cent below that of the same week last year , whllo imports hero show a moderate Increase ever last week , but the flow of currency to this center supplies the demands and makes the market easy , Interior cities report rather more demand for money. At-Boston the rates nro rising , at Chicago nnd St.Xouis they are steady and at Philadelphia dull. There is not much commercial paper offering , but at most points the demand is fair with n sufficient supply. The crop prospects begin to rule all the markoU nt this season , and these are distinctly improving. Wheat has declined ln < je , oats Icnnd corn ? fe. Coffee is unchanged. Hogs , lard and jiprk have scarcely changed In price and the rise of'J' c In oil Is purely speculative. A better demand for refined sugar is alleged as n reason for an advance of ? tfo In the price , but other reports Indicate that dealers are not buying freely at the high prices now asked. The general level of prices Is but a shade higher than a week ago , nnd the prevailing tendency scorns nt present to bo toward a lower range of quotations for n time. The capacity of iron f umaccs lu blast Juno 1 is 180,70:5 : , as against 180,09'J ' May 1 uud 133,110 a year ago. Tlio tone of the market is fairly confident. Eastern makers are said to have checked the incipient advance in prices , In order not to establish a mar ket for southern aud western producers to unload on. Tlio demand for various forms of manufactured iron nnd steel Is still good and prices steady. The wool market has been dull. Phila delphia and Chicago reports indicate that growers are holding for higher prices. But no improvement is scon in woolen goods , though dress goods are in fiir request bore nnd stocks of light-weight clothes are small. Flannel mills are generally cutting down the production. Reports from other cities show n healthy state of trade , with clear signs of improvement where better crop prospects have an Immediate influence. Cnicairo grain reccints are heavy , but wool receipts fall CO per cent below last year. The dry goods trade shows considerable excess over last year , with good collections , but tticro is llttlo present activity in clothing , though the pros pects are bright for the fall trade. St. Louis notes a strong trade in nearly all lines , Pittsburg a continued activity in iron and flint glass , and the northwestern and southern , cities generally report a better trade , with a brighter crop outlook. The business failures occurring throughout the country during the last seven days number U12 , as compared with 205' last week. For the cor responding week of last year the figures were 250. A You UK Bear Killer. George C. Campbell , a slight lad of sixteen years , recently on going to see his traps near Ward's mill , near Eight Milo , found that a bear had escaped with ono of them , dragging the twenty foot polo to which it was fastened , and leav ing evidences of no very pcaconlo character - actor along the trail , says the Dallas ( Or. ) Tiuibs-Mountaineor. George aoon found tlio boar , a largo black one , lodged at the foot of a hill among Homo lirs. The boy undertook to kill the bear with n club , but his blows had no more effect on its skull than if it wore a blacksmith's anvil. The monster roared on its hind foot , snapped its jaws viciously and struck aside the club with its paws. It was impossible to kill the animal that way , so George mounted his pony , threw his rene on the bear's neck and choked ito death , thus securing Us valuable pelt and delicious Bleaks. Dead Gone on Him. There was a curious scene in a justice's oflico at Albuquerque the other day , says the Denver Nows. In the morning at un early hour Pedro Trujillo and Abnrasta Otoro were married. They came back about 10 o'clock , got their certificate and left the oilico , apparently happy. About 4 o'clock in the afto rnoon the woman returned accompanied by an other man , and requested to be married again. "But , " replied the justice , "I married you this morning to Pedro Trujillo , and as the law of Now Mexico does not en title a woman to more than ono husband at a time , I must refuse to comply with your request. " ' 'You did not marry mo this morning ; I inn a different woman from the ono whom you married to Trujillo , " replied the woman in broken English. 'But I know I am not mistaken , and I cannot marry you again , " said tlio jus tice. Seeing that she could not work her game , the woman admitted having boon married in the morning , but would re pudiate the ceremony from the fact that a letter had boon left out in her name on the certificate. She also stated that Trujillo was a drunken fellow and of no account , and that she wanted to bo mar ried to a "buona bombro" just like this man , pointing to the young follow stand ing at her side. Finally she and her second lover loft the court room , and as she was going out of tlio door she turned to the justice and saidj "Buena muchacho , and I will marry him yet. I am dead gene on him. " "llold " cried the "do on , justice ; you know that if you marry that man before securing a divorce from Trujilloyou are liable to arrest on the ehargo of bigamy V You had bettor take my advice. " "Ulgamyl who is ho ? " answered the woman ; "I am my own mistress and I will marrv this man or know the reason why. " with those few remarks she slammed the door and the two locked arms , walking down tlio stops together ; Calling on the Prenehcr. Did It ever occur to you that politicians and others who have great events in hand always call upon some minister of the gospel with tlio greatest assurance to open their deliberations with prayer , said a Chicago pastor to a Tribune ro- jxirter. They hardly ever ask ono of our guild if ho would like to do so , or if It would bo agreeable or convenient. They just fitly , "Wo want you , " and the preacher loaves his pastoral duties or his sermon to go ana /riVoUo tlio divine blessing on some assemblage whoso after deliberations not Infrequently show thai the supplication fell short of its mark , I don't Icnow that I ever saw the prayer reported. The reporter simply writes that "tho llov. Dr. So-and-So made an opening prayer. " I grant you that some of the prayers may not bo worth print ing , but as that llttlo reward is all the poor preacher can expect it would seem as If ho ought to have it. And ho ought to make such a prayer that the reporter would feel compelled to nmlco i * u part of his report. BTANIiKY IS C11U8TY. A Disappointed Puhllshor'H Picture of the Uroat Kxploror. "To say that Ssiinloy'fl temper la caustic , " a gentleman In a 1 > 1" publisn- Ing housa on Broadway wild to a New York Sun reporter , "Is putting It very niildlv. I wont across the ocean to HOU Staulov in the Interest of our house , hoping to get something from him foi publication , and my experience leads mo to bollovo that caustic , as applied to the African explorer , is an exceedingly feeble aud unimpressive word. I went to him with an olTor that ought to have been made any man feel proud. My proposition was not covered with blue and yolliw ribbons ornamented with llttlu bells , nor did I attempt in any way to bo dramatic or Impressive. As a business man ol lomj experience , I wont to Mr. Stanley and laid before htm a plain business proposition. It Involved the piiynionl to him at once of a very large sum ol money , und the subsequent paymenl during three years of a , great many thousand dollars In quartorlj installments. It meant a very large fortune to tlio explorer , and though I Icnow that everybody had been after him , I felt rather glad to have the opportunity of olTorlng him so good 11 thing. I found a 111:111 : with white hair , i colorless face , a mouth the expression ol which cannot bo described by any other word than bitter , and oycs that wore absolutely lusterless. Ho listened to me with an air of forced politeness , then ho said it was a curious thing that people did not know that ho had already made arrangements for everything ho could write for the next Hvo years , and after that ho made a few comments on the manner in which people bored him with propositions to write and lecture. Ho finished after a few sarcastic remarks , rose , and 8iidtliit ! _ ho hoped that I would consider our interview satisfactory , made a short bow , and drifted out of the room. Ho seemed to regard my visit IIB a piece ol impertinence , and his manner was so magnificent that I actually put ou my hat and walked for a milo before I had discovered that I had forgotten to lay before him -tho many points which J had thought olQon my way across the water. I returned the following morning for Jhls , purpose , but the explorer could not bo seen. In England there is but ono opinion about Stanley. Ho is believed to be trillo short tempered and somewhat assertive , but there is no question but that ho knows exactly what ho wants , und means what ho says when ho cares to speak. Socially ho is almost as 'silent' as General Grant. Ho has been known to sit through an entire dinner without uttering more than half a dozen words , though ho listens with the utmost courtesy to the talk of his neighbors. " CIjAUDIS IJUVAfj. Characteristic Anecdotes of the Beau Ideal ol'Gontlcmaiily llohhcr.s. In the days of King Charles the Second end there lived one of the most noted gentlemen of the road , Claude Duval , as gallant and pretty a follow aa over danced upon nothing ut all under "the three trees at Tyburn , " upon the occa sion of whose death the author of "IIu- dlbras" wrote a Pindaric ode , and who had such a taking way with the women that in his last hours , as Captain John son tolls us , "abundance of ladies , and those not of the meanest quality , visited him in prison and interceded for his pardon , and not n few accompanied him to the gallows , under their vizards , with swollen eyes and blubbered cheeks. " Of him it is told that ono day , writes Howard Pylo in Harper's Magazine for June , on hearing news of a knight and his lady traveling into the country with 100 in their coach , ho and tlireo others spurred after them , and by and by came up with them upon a lonely heath a lit tle way out of the town. The coach was stopped , nnd. when the knight looked out of tlio window ho saw a wicked look ing scamp in a vizard mask at the horso's heads , another holding the cold rim of a pistol against his coachman's ear , and still another standing over the postilion. A polite gentleman , most excellently well dressed , rode up to the coach upon a fine horse , and dolTcd his hat with an air that was worth coming that distance to see ; for , bo it mentioned , the lady in the coach was "a fine , .sprightly . creature. " The polite gentleman wtia Monsier Claude Duval. "Sir , " said ho to the knight , "I make no doubt that your lady dances excel lently well. Will you bo pleased to stop out of the coach and lot mo have the honor of dancing ono courant with her upon the heath ? " "There is , " said the knight , lifting his hat with an air almost equal to that of the other "thoro is no refusing such a polite request , sir. You seem to bo a man of generosity , and thnt which you ask is perfectly reasonable. " Thereupon the footman was called , the stops were dropped , the door opened , and the knight clambered out. Duval him self handed the lady down. "It was , " bursts forth tlio old chroni cle that spealcs of this "it was surpris ing to see how gracefully he moved upon the heath. Scarce a dancing master in London but would have boon proud to have shown such agility in a pair of dancing pumps 115 Duval showed in a great pair of riding boots , " At last the dance was ended and ho handed the lady back into tlio coach again with all tlio gallantry conceivable. But as the knight was about to follow , "Sir , " said ho , "you have forgot to pay the piper. " Ills worship pulled a long face , but there was no help for it. Out from under the seat of the coach ho nulled a hag containing 100 guineas aud handed it to Duval , who received it with a bow that was almost worth the money to see. "Sir , " said ho , "your generosity and liberality are only exceeded by your noble behavior , and have saved you the other JCSOO which you have in the coach with you. " For the rogue had knowl edge of every farthing of the money and whore it was hidden , and might have had It all , had ho not , by some sudden quirk of his crazy wits , been pleased to dance $ JU)0 ) of it away in a heavy pair of riding boots on a grassy heath with u fine lady of quality. Such is 0110 of a legion of similar chapbook - book stories , all ringing with a certain fooling of ( ipon-lianded generosity , and all of counterfeit mulal ; for as in this the poor good knight lost 100 guineas of honest money , BO in them all borne inno cent victim sull'onv But'always ho is rich or powerful , and so chupbook literature - ' aturo sees nothing of the smart ho suf fers ; it is blind upon that side. Professional Murderers In Hun hi. Some tlmo ago a midwife of Warsaw , Skublinskaya by name , was brought to justice , with several of her coadjutors , lor the crime of killing illegitimate children , says a writer In tlio Chicago Tribune. Tlio woman and helpers called themselves "Tho Society of Ang ola , " and engaged In the atrocious work of "dispatching th" llttlo ones to hoavon'f of course foril certain consid eration paid them by the unfortunate mothers or tholr friends. This fact aroused a discussion in all the Kusslan pajHirs on the futo of Illegitimate children in that country. The mortality of such waifs was found to bo ever 80 pur cent oven among tho&o In the government asylums SCROFULA Is thnt Impurity of the Mood which produces unsightly lumps or swellings In the nock ; which causes running cores on the , armi , legs , or fectj which develops ulcers In the eyes , cars , or nose , often causing blindness or deafness ; which Is the origin of pimples , cancerous cereus growths , or " humors j" which , fastenIng - Ing upon the lungs , causes consumption and death.

Thosw nsylums keep the children only for a short time , and send thorn to vllmgoa to bi * raised in the families of peasants. Thuro they die In largo numbers. Hut the number of Huch children us are "df.s- pnlchod" directly by professional mur- dorurs lllfo Slcubllnsftnyn can hardly bo estimated. Only txuotit three weeks HRO Hhnilar " of " discovered a "Society Angols" was covered in Vila. The falo of the unfortunate - tunato infants has raised the question as to the causes for the m-evuleneo of mii-h a crime. The papers hint , as broadly as the strictness of the censor of the dress allows , that tlio cruel laws with reference - once to waifs are at the bottom of the whole trouble. An illegitimate child in Russia , if it ever grows up , has no standing huforo tlio law. No matter what his abilities or virtues , if by clmnco or by natural endowment ho happens to bo possessed of any , there is no hope and no prospect for him to do any good in tlio world or for himself. The law will not rccognixo him as a member of society , ana lie is tossed about and bull'otcd until he linds his way into some gang of criminals passing their lives in a mine in the Ural moun tains. In view of these facts it is no wonder that sinful mothers regard it as a bonollt for their children to bo "dis patched to heaven" before they grow up to live in ignominy and siitloring on earth , and that "angels" like Skublins- kaya should be found who have no scru ples to help sinful mothers ridding them selves of their children. El ABOHATK ST The Sumptuous JloiunH of Sonic Knai cm JlorsoH. The stables of American country houses viowith the dwellings themselves in point of beauty and gorgeousness , says the Now York correspondent of the Richmond Times. The plans for the stables are drawn as carefully and us much architectural pains bestowed upon them as if they were to bo inhabited by the royal ones of earth. The interest wo take in outdoor life and sport is respon sible for this. Tlio most luxurious und complete stables in the country are up in Genoseo county. Tlio Woolwortlis , to whom these stables belong , own some liXK ( ( ) acres of tlio Goncsuo valley , exactly the same tract of land that was granted to them 200 years ago by the king of Eng land. It was then an impenetrable wilderness. Tlio estate has boon kept intact over since , and through all changes of government it has passed from father to son. Tlio house is nearly a century old and is a perfect typo of colonial aroliitccturo. It has boon enlarged from time to time , and modern conveniences have been added , but the furnishing and general appearance of the house have remained unchanged. Tlio stables are entirely d modern and they have stalls for thirty * horses. One of the finest stables in the city belongs to Frank Work" . It is on Fifty- fifth street , very far west. Brick and red Bnndutono are the materials used for its construction and the entire building is lined with oak. The interior is richly * ' ornamented with scrolled iron and brass. The windows and doors of all the hur- * ness cupboards are of plate glass. The stalls of his favorite team ought to bo called rooms , so spacious are thoy. In the roof of each a dome of glass is sot , which lets in the sunshine and keeps tha stalls sweet and clean. Mr. Work does not bollovo in dark stables. The walls of these rooms are ol wlished oak , with the railing above ol scrolled brass. Tlio feeding troughs are of blue and white tiles , ami are kept ini- nnuulutoly clean. Fresh air is pumped nto the stalls by engines , and thoulectrio Ight is used throughout the building. A Novel Mode A prominent Frazier river vn ner is low in Astoria , who , notwithstanding .ho fact that other cunncrs there made lothing , says the Cathlnmet Gazette , is i millionaire. But ho did not make it iltogothor out of salmon , but has linen ntorestcd in opium smuggling.
