FIIBMONT , Nob. , Doc. 10 , [ Special to Tim BISK. ) A remarkable story involving th tenacity of Ufa of a heifer comes from Ames , this county. Some tlmo last spring an anl- mnl belonging 10 Farmer Zornyns struck by lightning. The stroke was not fatal , and it was not very long thereafter until the heifer had apparently regained her normal condi tion. About six weeks ago , however , Mr. /.ore , whllo walking through his pasture Held , discovered this same heifer lying on the ground dead , as ha supposed , and ho passed her vnluo to the account of profit and loss. A few days ago a number of hunters who were shooting upon Mr. Xom's land dis covered an nnimal which they supposed hnd lust died , the body being still warm. Mr. Corn's ' attention was called to It , nnd upon Investigation ho found this to bo the self same heifer which hnd previously been the object of the wrath of n thunderbolt and which Its owner had Riven up for dead six weeks before. A still closer investigation showed that there was life in ono side ot the body whllo the other was paralyzed. The lu'Ifor had been lying there for six weeks , ana the remarkable part of it all is thnt after the lapse of all this time there f hoiild still ho life In the body. It is a font In fftstiug that rivals Tmmer'B , nnd as the animal is still nllvolt yet remains to bo seen what are the powers nnd possibilities In this field of achievement. Farmers VM Hunkers. McCooK , Neb. , Dec. 10. [ Special to THE BKK.J The -relief : work in this county is being pushed vigorously by the county com mittee at Indlanola and by the Ladies' ' Benev olent association ol 'McCook. Several hun dred families have received assistance al ready , but the supply is notquito adequate to tlio demand. Several carloads of coal have been donated by individuals , nnd In all cases BO far It has been shlppoa free of freight charges. Qcorgo Hockncll , the banker hero , has donated n car of coal , and both ttic banks at Indiunola hnvo ordered a car each. Money is close and almost Impossible to obtain by farmers , Bankers refuse to loan , nnd the feeling Is bitter against them. Thsro has boon a feud hero for some months between tlio fanners and the bankers owing to the high rates charged. Bankers say that they cannot loan for less rates on the shaky secur ity they nro obliged to accept from farmers , nnd they declare that they are not to blame lor the hitter feeling thnt exists ntralnst thoni. Farmers threaten n severe Interest law at the coming session ot the legislature , and the lenders say they will simply quit business If such a law Is passed. Altogether the outlook is gloomy nnd business men are hedging on all sides. Heretofore- west has depended largely on railroad building to advance prop erty and furnish employment to the people , Fanners hero hlamo the roads because tboy do not hulld more , and the roads claim they nro running their branch lines at a loss now , and If freight rates nro cui down they will not bo nilc ) to extend their lines nny further , The anti-bank and ontl-rnllroad scntlmcnl has become a mania among farmers , nnd tboj meet and discuss the questions In the mosl bitter manner. Many alliance men nro fear f ul of extreme measures nt tbo coming sea- slou and uro counseling melioration. Tbo problem of the future ii a serious ono nnd many businessmen would glndlvclosi out their business ifthoy could nnd leave tin country. The only hope U that present ro Jiof will continue ; that the coming Icglslatun will appropriate money for spring sccdlm and that the feud between fannera nnd capl tal will ale out nud leave some chance for returning turning prosperity the coming season.

[ Special Telegram to IIKBEE. ] Thoono pro-omlnont subject of nlorctt today In railroad circles In this city vns the result of the president's mooting yes terday In Xew Vork nt which resolutions voro adopted providing lor tUo Inauguration f n new system of doing business suhstan- lally on the lines proposed by Jay Gould. Some comment was mi do on the fact , that no osltlvo mention of a pool is made In the rcso- utlons , but the general view was that pro- , 'lston Is mudo for ono by the ndvlsory board nd that any agreement which did not pro- Ido for ono would be of no avail. TUo fact .hut the agreement is to bo for six months In tend of flvo years nlso excited sorao com ment as did the abscnco of any montlon of ho building of now roads. The prollmlnnry agreement was expected to cover this point. "It would not bo proper for mo to express uny opinion on the result of the meetiugr , " mid President Uluolcstouo of the Alton road , 'bccnuso I nm not fully ndvlsoil of what they did. All I know of the matter Is that before ho mooting took plnce I snld to many of the gentlemen who proposed to uttend It that ivhllo I would not attend I would not stand n the way of nny agreement that would pro- vlilo for doing business on a fnlr nnct cquitu- bio basts and that would fullv protect tlio in terests of all the roads as well as these of the shippers. I nm In favor of such rates as will bo fulr to the shippers ns well ns to the roads. My opinion Is , and past experience shows , that it will bo impossible to make such an agreement for nny . great length of tlmo. Conditions uro constantly changing and wo must change our methods to suit the changing conditions and circumstances. Wo must keen on trying , however , and never give up. This Is the only way In which anything can bo dono. I ques tion greatly if ultima to good can bo accom plished If the reports represent fully nil that was done or' is to bo dono. But , as I have said , 1 do not think they do , and hcnco the impropriety of mo discussing the matter at all at this stage. " "All I know of what was done or agreed to , " said General Manager Merrill of the Burlington road , "Is what I have seen In the papers , and I am satlsllcd Unit that Is a very partial and Insufllclcnt report. 1 sco that pools nro not mentioned la the resolutions and I think that without some equitable di vision for traftlo no plan can bo made effec tive and permanent. The road that llnds Its business declining is going to take some means of keeping and Increasing It. That is an inevitable luw of business and the only way to maintain rates of a stable mid re munerative basis Is to provide for u fair and equitable division of the business among the competing roads. I hope some plan that will secure that will bo agreed to. Without It railroad property will have to go into the hands of receivers. " 'I see that Mr. Stlcknoy of our road was the only ono present at the meeting 'who hud courage to express his honest convictions , " said Trafllc Manager Busenbark of the Chicago cage , St. Paul & Kansas City ro.id. "Ho had the courage to tell them just what ho thought , and ho did It. You know how long the last gentlemen's ' agreement lasted. Heading between the lines the resolutions adopted provide for the organization of a money pool. That Is what they really mean. I look upon the resolutions adopted simply us an expression of opinion of the owners of the railroads as to how the executive offlcers should carry on the business ar.d us the lines on which a detailed agreement Is to bo based. A great deal of work will have to be done be fore a detailed agreement that will bo satis factory to everybody can bo drawn on the Hues i nd lea tea In the resolutions. So far as this road Is concerned , wo are prepared to support nny plan that will place rates on a fairly remunerative and stable basis. Stable rates are what nro wanted moro than any thing else , and this road will do everything in its power to secure thorn. " Gqultl Satisfied. NEW Yourc , Dec. 10.

Sitting Bull , whoso original Indian name was Tatunka Yotunk , has probably done as much "Injun devilment" in his tlmo as an ; savage since TccumseU. Black Hawk wasu' ' a circumstance to him , and tno most notoc Apaches , though more bloodthirsty , wore foi Inferlorln talent and consequently indestruo tlon. Ho was born in the Black Hills In 1833 his father being a Blackfoot Sioux and hU mother tbo daughter of an Uncpapa Sioux b.v an Arlcdaroo wife. The average ago of In dians Is much less than that of whites , and sc ho was considered qnlto nn old man ; nud hav Ing been pro-omlnontly successful In war am am bilious and eloquent in peace' , his influence enco was very great. His speech , in 1880 , in citing the Crows to war , is u line specimen o Indian eloquence. The joint council was hcl < on the Bcuno of the Ouster massacre , nnc pointing to the monument , ho said : "Look at that monument 1 That marks the work of my peoplo. Wo are respected utu feared by the white man , because wo klllot his great chief and moro than three humlret of his warriors on this spot. "Wo receive one and one-half pounds of beef per ration , but you get only one-half pound ; yut wo do nc work , but rldo and visit oar friends as we please.

The war l u- gulshcd after that , nud llttlo was done by the Sioux till 18 ( ) . It was a long story to relate the terrible massacre of that year , the over varying for- : unos of tha next nine years and the great lnal disaster to the Ouster comumtul. In 180. During the five years auceoodlng the civil war the United Slates regular army wns In the worst- condition It aver reached. Men deserted by dozens In open day. Hundreds enlisted simply 16 get transportation to the mining regions and then deserted xvlthout fear or shame. "Wl.cn something like regular discipllno wns restored the Indians were soon defeated nnd Sitting Bull wont to Canada. In no long tlmo there was a general amnesty nnd ho came back. Several Sioux who took part In the Ouster massacre nro now "good Indians , " and not very baa farmers , living quietly on Devil's Lake reservation , North Dakota. Hut old Sitting Bull 3ould not stay quiet very long ; lie stayed out with the wild bauds. For months ho kept the young Indians In line against signing the treaty to open the Sioux reservation , nnd wherever In the meantime trouble broke out among the wild bands , the ofUcials suspected the hand of Sit ting Bull. Aft6r Inciting the Crows ( now friendly to the Sioux ) and others , ho reached Standing Rock agency on July UO of lastycar , nnd within a few hours Induced nil the In dians to take the "oath by the Great Spirit" that they would not accept the treaty ns it then was. Even John Grass , Mad I3car nnd others who had been favorable down to that tlmo , backed squarely out when they noted -tho effect of Sitting Bull's address on the young Indians. Some of his remarks show great shrewdness of the savage , kind. Ho objected to work nnd civilization foe-Indians generally , but wanted them to kcop a few boys In the white schools nil the time , so that there might bo some warriors who could rend nnd write , nnd therefore circumvent the white men and ras cally interpreters. After his failure to accomplish his ends ho retired to his homo in Grand river valley , und it was announced that ho was dying of con sumption.

In the house today Mr. Mills of Texas as a privileged question offered n concurrent resolution providing for a holiday recess from December B'J , 1SW , to Jmiunry C , 1891. Koferred to the ways and mentis committee. Mr. Dunnoll of Minnesota then called up . \\o \ apportionment bill nnd brlctly explained ts provisions. There was a diversity of opinion among the members of the house ns : o whether the present representation should stand or whether It should bo increased. It was finally determined by the commlttoo to icccpt 350 ns the proper number. After an neffoctual effort to secure nn agreement ns to the limitation of dcbnto , Mr. Dunnell gave notice that ho would call the previous ques tion nt 5 o'clock thl ? afternoon. Mr. Flower of Now York protested against the passage of the hill and severely criti cised the census returns of Now York city. Mr. Mills of Texas said ho believed Now York had lost the enumeration to which she was entitled , but her loss was not ns great ns that of his own state , which amounted to 500,000. Mr. McH.io of Arkansas gave notlco of an fimondmcnt increasing the representatives to Mr. Outhwalto of Ohio stated that great In justice had been done. In his state in taking the census. Illinois bad uccoino the third stnto tnthouniou. It was not true that Illinois had grown so rapidly nor Ohio bad fallen oft to such an extent. The whole census ought to bo rotnken , so that representatives might bo apportioned according to population and not according to schemes for political ad vancement. Mr. Frank of Missouri earnestly advocated the bill , which was based upon the bill orig inally Introduced by himself. Mr. Flowcrof Isow Yorkofforeci nn amend ment Increasing to thirty-live the representa tion from New York. Mr. Sninola of New York said that when the neople of New York found they had been wronged they applied to the secretary of the Interior , but obtained no relief. The secretary wrote a blackguard , Imoudcnt letter , which was unworthy to emanate from any man calling himself n gentleman. The census as taken by Superintendent Porter was n crinio against the publlo. It was a wrong perpe trated by the superintendent , and ho kuew It , nnd his heelers knew it. Mr. Covert of Now York argued In support of thenmeiidmentprovidingn recount of New York nnd Brooklyn and additional repre sentation for the state should the recount show an increase of 150,000 , over the federal census. Mr. Lind of Minnesota favored the McRao amendment. The npportlonmont bill , bethought thought , tihould bo satisfactory and Just to the country. It wl.s con ceded on both sides that there was difficulty in regard to the cen sus In Now York city. To nmicnso the feel ings of New York ( considering its largo fraction ) it would bo but fair nnd just to give that btato un additional representative. The saino wns true of Arkansas and Minnesota , and this bill , while it might fit the arithmetic theory of the committee , di'l injustice to these states. Mr. Biggs of California complained thnt Sun Francisco had not had a fair enumera tion. Not ono enumerator there had been a democrat. Mr. Peel of Arkansas declared thnt Ar kansas had lost 100,000 by failure to count. Mr. Dunnoll , in closing the debate , spoke earnestly in favor of the bill and expressed regret nt the attack made on tho'soerotnry of the Interior by Mr. Spinola. It had never scorned reasonable to the committee that Now York should bo granted a special privi lege. No other city had como hero disregarding the law , and ho regretted that the venerable gentleman from New York should let fall from his lips nn attack upon an official of the government to which the latter could uotncuply. The hour of 5 o'clock having arrived , Mr. Dnnuell demanded the previous question , Mr. Blouht of Georgia Interjected a motion to adjourn , and during the progress of the vote the democratic members took their hats and overcoats and lolt the hall , showing a dis position to break a quorum on the next vote. The motion , to adjouru was lost yeas , 118 ; nays , 145. At tne suggestion of Mr. Blount of Georgia It was agreed that after two hours-debate to morrow the previous question should bo con sidered as 'ordered , and the house adjourned. The Senate. WASHINGTONDec. . 10. In the senate , In the course of the morning business , Senator Hoar read a letter from John I. Davenport making a vigorous denial o the charges pre ferred against his conduct as chief supervisor of elections and professing a willingness to appear before a senate commit tee to answer the charges. Tlio landing business was thq consideration of the Dolph resolution providing for an Investigation whether the right to vote was denied or abridged in any state , with the Vest amend ment extending the investigation to inquiry as to whether , by state legislation , any man was denied the right to work on public works by reason of bis color. Mr. Morgan in opposing the resolution called attention to the fifteenth amendment to the constitutioncriticising it and contending ing- the foundation of tl.o country would have been better had the government been content with the fourteenth amendment. Pending further debate the senate pro ceeded to consideration of the election bill , Mr. Morgan concluding his speech ncrnlnst it. The discussion was then temporarily sus pended nnd Mr. Pugh gave notice of nn amendment requiring- deputy marshals , etc. , to bo of good moral character and able to toad and write. Mr. Blair presented petitions from labor organizations praying congress to set aside consideration of the election bill , s6 thnt labor legislation might bo acted upon. Mr. Hoar objected , nnd Mr. ICcnna then ad dressed tno senate In opposition to the election bill Mr , Dolph took the floor , hut soon yielded to a motion to adjourn.

Senator I'asco today Introduced an amendment to the pend ing election bill. It provides that It shall bo unlawful for any person to pay or promise to pay money to induce persons to vote or re frain from noting ; to promlso employment as supervisor of election to influence n vote ; to receive money or appointment with that ob ject nnd endeavor to influence employes In their voting , on ncnulty of $ > 00 linq nnd im prisonment ono year.
