wood in Resisting Any Attempt to
Stop the Ghost Dance Twenty
Thousand of the Savages at
Wounded Knee.
Omaha. Neb., Nov. 29.—A dispatch
from Pine Ridgo Agency says: “Pleuty-of-
Frai *n oil time friendly Indian who lived
at Wounded Knee, tweaty-fl ve miles north
east of here, came in last evening with an
alarming report to Agent Royer. He
stated that there were 364 lodges, being over
20,000 Indians, at Wounded Knee, and that
they bad resumed the ghost dance, with
many war accompaniments. He said that
they were formed in regular war dance
proper, and were swearing vengeance upon
the whites for conspiring to stop their ghost
dance. They have taken an oath to resist
interference if it cost the last drop of their
hearts’ blocd. Plenty-of-Be ir said
that he had witnessed the dance
in person, and that Little Wound,
who visited the agency hero Thursday and
mid that his band had stopped daucing, was
joining in hotter than ever with his entire
baud. It is further stated by Plenty-of-

Poland of the Twentv-first Infantry has

Word is being sent to the Indians that no
injury w til be done to any one at home.
Five hundred young men are raiding the
whole country, destroying everything and
breaking into ull the school houses and

weather is very fine, and the troops are in
gpod health.”
THIS MESSIAH.
Washington, Nov. 29. — John S. May
hugh. until recently special census nge.it of
the Indians for Nevada, has written to the
; Indian bureau upon the subject of the com
ing of the indian inesdah. In his
Jitter Air. Mayhugh says: ‘"The prophet re

His name is not Johnson Hides at Reno,

all tno Indians by the Indian
n.uues of We-vo-kar and alsoCo-we-jo.
.He is an intelligent, fine looking
Indian about 35 years of age, who goes into
trances, or seemingly so, from twelve
to fourteen hours in the pres
ence of a large nnmber of
Indians upon invitation of the prophet.
Up*n his recovery he relates to them that
he has been to heaven, and that the messiah
is coming to earth again, and will put the
Indians m possession of this country, and
that he has seen in heaven a heap of Indians,
to ne of whom are dressed iu white man’s
clothes. He counsels the Indians not to dis
turb the white folks, saying that a blanket or
rabbis skin that was put over the moon by
the Indians long ago will soon fall oil and
then the moon, which is now afire, will
destroy the whites. The Messiah is to ap

BAD BREAKS IN BUSINESS.
Jamison's Debts Heavier Than at First
Supposed.
Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 29.-The fail
ure of B. K. Jamison & Cos. divided the
attention of the street this morning with
the startling publication of John A Baker's
gigantic forgeries. The general opinion
seems to be that the failure of Jamison &
Cos. will be worse than at first reported.
The firm are said to have been large bor
rowers lately, and several financial institu
tions of this city are thought to have been
heavily hit by their suspension. The failure
has had no appreciable effect on the local
stock market, stocks to-day being dull but
steady.
NO STATEMENT MADE YET.
As yet the firm have not made any state
ment regarding their position, and Assignee
Ihompson said it would be impossible to
give even an approximate estimate of the
assets and liabilities. Beyond the statement
given to the papers last night no informa
tion in regard to Baker’s enormous pecula
tions will be made public by the counsel of
the absconder’s family. It is the general
impression that Baker has ma le go si his
escape from the country and will not be ap
prehended.
A SUIT BY THE STATE.
State Treasurer Boyer to-day entored
two suits in the common pleas court against
‘ ■^ aai ‘ B3n & Cos., upon a bond for
SIOO,OOO, dated in June last, to secure the
payment of state’s money, which the firm
are said to hare held in their possession.
In the affidavit filed with the bond Treas
urer Boyer avers that the amount due on
the bond fliod in the action, and the Judg
ment thereon, is $25,090, that being the
amount at this time on deposit with Jami
son & Cos. By the suit it is sought to hold
not only the firm, but the individual mem
bers responsible.
EBENSBURO BANKERS FAIL.
Johnston, Buch & Cos., at Ebensburg,

Philadelphia, Nov. 20, 10 p. m.—
Assignee Thompson had progressed far
enough in his examination of their affairs
this afternoon to bo able to say to-uight
that the sum due depositors amounts to
probably $500,000. A large portion of
this represents money placed on deposit
with the firm by banks in various parts of
the state, between sixty and one hundred of
which were represented in Philadelphia by
Jamison & Cos. Tho indications no.v are
that the liabilities of the firm wifi exceed
51,000,000.
A RUN ON A BANK AT DULUTH.
Minneapolis, Minn., Nov. 29.—A spe

pay no more c ih, but if they would wait a
day or two they would be paid in foil. He
had riot raised the necessary funds to-day.
No runs have been made on tho other
banks.”
A WHEAT BLOCKADE.
Farmers in Washington Unable to Get
'I heir cropa to Market.
Tacoma, Wash., Nov. 29. —The wheat
crop of Washington is the largest in its
history, being estimated at 16,000,090 bush
els. The olevators, warehouses and box
cars along the railways are filled, and
stocks of sacked wheat dot tha fields. The
inability of the railroads to obtain
motive power to move tho enormous
crop to market is exasperating
to the farmers, who are charging
them with collusion with warehousemen to
lower the prices of wheat. Ho intense has
become the foaling among the farmers
against the railroad companies, that they,
through their farmers’ alliance threaten
to build an independent state line to com
pete with the Northern aud Union Pacific
to Puget bound.

discovered that t o jury wa. composed tf
friends of the prisoner, the judge ordered
them discharged. Judge Boyd said: "I
leave the seat of this court, and will never
return until the Chickasaw nation become*
a state of the union.” The mat!er has
caused great excitement, and bloodsned is
feared.

A HOT FIRE ON PARNELL.
GLADSTONE ISSUES A COUNTER
MANIFESTO.
He Denies In Toto the Statements in
the Document of the Irish Leader—
Davitt Goes for His Colleague in a
Lively Fashion-All Say It is a Bad
Setback for Home Rule.
London, Nov. 29. —Mr. Gladstone has
issued a reply to Mr. Parnell’s manifesto,
iu which he denies in toto the statements by
the Irish leader in regard to the retention
of Irish members in the imperial parlia
ment, tho settlement of the land or agrarian
difficulty in Ireland, control of the Irish
constabulary and the appointment of the
judiciary in Ireland. Mr. Gladstone
says he will not apply a
single epithet to Mr, Parnell, not
being his judge, lie believes, however,
that he showod by his course in the matter
of tne special commission appointed to in
vestigate the charges made against Air.
Parnell growing out of the Pigott letters
that he hod no disposition to do Mr. Parnell
injustice. Mr. Gladstone comes forth with a
recital of the proposals alleged by Mr. Par
nell in his manifesto to have been in >de to
him during his visit to Mr. Gladstone at
Hawardoa last November.
THS HOME RULE PROPOSALS.
In regard to the pretended proposals
witu regard to home rule, in tho eveut of
the liberal party winning at the next gen
eral election, Mr. Gladstone declares tnat.
no single suggestion was offered by him to
Mr. Parnell either as a formal or as a final
one. Tho conversation then held was a
statement perfectly free und with
cut prejudice of tho points on
which Air. Gladstone or such of
lus colleagues as he c uid consult were in
cline! to believe that tho home rule plan in
18SG could bo improved, and concerning
which bo was desirlousto know whether any
serious objection had risoa in tho mind of
Mr. Parnell. To none of those suggestions
did Mr. Parnell raise serious obiections.
PARNELL’S VERACITY IMPEACHED.
Air. Gladstone denies that he made the
statements wnich Mr. Parnell's memory
ascribes to him, or anything substantially
resembling them, either us to tho retention
of the Irish members in tho imperial par
liament, or as to tho settlement of the land
question or agrarian difficulties, or
control of tho constabulary, or the
appointment of the judiciary. The
conversation between them was strictly
confidential. To publish even the true ac
count Is to break the seal of confidence
which alone renders political co-operation
iiossible. Every suggestion made to Mr.
•‘arnell was from written memoranda to
which Mr. Gladstone can refer. Neither
Mr. Parnell nor himself was bound by the
conversation to absolute acceptance of the
proposals. During the year that had since
elapsod he had never received from Mr
Parnell any intimation of an alteration of
his views regarding any of them.
INDEPENDENCE OF THE NATIONALISTS.
Iu conclusion Mr. Gladstone says that he
has always held, both in pitblic'itud in pri
vate. that tho national party of Ireland
ought to remain entirely independent of
the liberal party of Great Bri ain. It is
their duty and his duty, conformably with
tho spirit of Grattan and O’Connell, to
study all tho adjustments in tho great matter
of home rule which may tend to draw to
their side moderate and equitable men.
But for him to propose a measure except
such as Ireland could approve on the llnei
already laid down would bs fatal as regards
liimseif and treachery to the Irish nation,
in wbioh, even by the side of Mr. Parnell,
he can claim to take an interest. .
MICHAEL DAVITT’S OPPOSITION.
Michael Davitt was interviewed to-day
regarding the present' political crisis. He
said: “It’s all terribly sad and sickening.
If the Irish party had been awaro of tue
circumstances and had acted with courage
at first ail would have been well. They
were bewildered, and no wonder that wo
tire now in splinters. Mr. Purnells
manifesto is his last desperate move.
I do not see how ha could have struck
Ireland a worse blow. He is furious against
tho majority of his party, ar.d in his anger
against Mr. Gladstone’s latter he runs
amuck. According to him, a number of
members of his own party am false, aud
Mr. Gladstone and the English liberal wire
pullers are scheming against him. The
home rule proposals outlined at Ha warden
were entirely inadequate. The last of
these is the most important, in Mr.
Parnell’s opinion, but tie forgets that
he agreed io similar proposals in the bill of
1880. He now declares against the cutting
down of the Irish representation a West
minster, but In 1886 he agreed to clause 2+
of tho bill, which entirely excluded Irish
representation, and further agreed to clauses
retaining for a time imperial control of the
police and judiciary. The land bill
proposed by Mr. Gladstone was quite apart
from the home rule question, and was finally
abandoned. Mr. Parnell thus convicts him
self. Why did he not make this appeal be
fore? These Hawarden proposals were as
bad then as now. "Besides,” continued Mr.
Davitt, “we have yet to know wbetaer Mr.
Parnell did not agree to them. Mr. Glad
stone, Mr. Moriov, and, I believe, William
O’Brien, were parties to tho company. Thoy
are now called upon to speak out.
A SET BACK FOR HOME RULE.
“Meanwhile, no matter wluit the mani
festo may do for Mr. Parnell's own posi
tion, he has shattered all hope of home rule
for years, and that, too, for per
sonal ends and revenge, jest as in 1882 he
shattered the land league to get out of Kil
mainham jail, and was prepared in 1886 to
smash his party and debauch the institutions
of his country to thrust Capt. O’Shea on the
Gal way electors. Messrs. Dillon, O’Brien and
Sexton ought to depose him for leadership.
He has brought terrible disaster, but not
complete ruin to homo rule.” Mr. Davitt is
engager! iu preparing a manifesto in behalf
of Mr. Parneli s opponents in thu nation
alist party, which will confute all tho points
advauced by Mr. Parnell as reasons for hii
retention as the head of the party. This
manifesto will be issued immediately.
M sirs. Gtoxton and Healy are taking the
opinion of each of tbe members of parlia
ment as to the advisability of organizing a
movement for an alliance of the anti-Dai -
nellites with Mr. Gladstone.
In an interview to-day Henry Labou
chcre, member of parliament and editor of
Truth, said it would be charitable to
suppose that Mr. Parnell is mad.
It is impossible to suppose that a sane man.
with any Fonse of honor or patriotism, would
issuo a manifesto so dishonoring to himself
and so injurious to h.s country’s causa.
PARNELL IN PARLIAMENT.
Mr. Parnell was present in tbe parlia
ment building to-day. He busied himself
in attending to his correspondence for a
time, and then bad an Interview with
several of his supporters.
Messrs. Healy and Sexton and a number
of other opponents of .Mr. Parnell held a
conference. Mr. Parnell’s manifesto has
stiffened their opposition, and they have
resolved to Issue a counter-manifesto forth
with. This manifesto will bear a formida
ble list of signatures. Tbe fight between
the two factions will be fought to the bitter
end. Neither side will leave a stone un
turned.
AN ACT or SUICIDE.
The S'ar (home rule), commenting on
Mr. Parnell's manifest •. rays it is the final
act ot suicide. Its malignant power and
unscrupulcusne-s. the deadly mischief of Its
purpose, and its frig.d aud calm style invest
with tenible force the spectacle of his death
as a great public man. Tuere is much of
bid. ous levity in the document, in which
Mr. Parnell wipes his pen across the
treaty giving England peace and Ireland
borne rule. Happily Mr. Parnell is but au
isolated factor. The Irish party has its
Dillons, O'Briens and Healys a. well as Us
Parnell. Until these men meet and decide
upon u rupture of t u relations existing be
tween the nationalists and liberals it is
needless to talk of dissolution of ties which
cm never be dissolved by the uot of one
man.
The Pall Mall Gazette says that the mani
festo is as unscrupulous a document as ever
politician penned. Air. I’arneil bits below
tho belt, it says, but be is fighting for his
life.
The Freeman's Journal says the mani
festo is a terrible reply to Mr. Gladstone’s
indiscreet and importunate Utter to Mr.
Morley, and that it falls like a bombshell
upon Mr. Parnell’s quondam and apparent
allies.
DEPRESSING EFFECT AT CORK.
Cork, Nov. 29. —Mr. Parnell’s manifesto
has Pad a depressing effect upon home rule
circles here. The Herald, which was
formerly a supporter of Mr. Parnell, ox
prea es amazement and sorrow at what it
considers Ins unjustifiable breach of the
liberal confidence.
The nationalists of County Kildare gen
erally consider the manifesto rather un
generous, and believe it will do more harm
thau good.
THE LEAGUE AT CORK DISPLEASED.
At a meeting of tho Cork branch of the
national league, ot which tho mayor pre
sided, it transpired that Air. Parnell had
not informed any of his constituents of his
manifesto. Tho meeting unanimously re
solved to summon a oomnnttee to confsr
with Mr. Pnrnoll in theovent of his coming
to Cork. Jt is undeniable that the mani
festo has alienated a section of Mr. Parnell's
constituents.
At a public mooting at LUmore a motion
expressing confidence In Mr. Parnell was
unanimously adopted amid great enthusi
asm.
Messrs. Fitzgerald and O’Kelly, nationalist
members of parliament, have telegraphed
to their oonstituences that they will resign
If Mr. Parnell is sacrificed.
PARNELL’S DEMEANOR.
Mr. Parnell's unusual demeanor while In
the parliament building to-day, his
affability to friends and foes alike, is inter
preted as consciousness of the uncertainty
of his position. Opinions gathered at the
National Liberal Club, the rendezvous of
the anti-Parnell section of the Irish party,
are that Mr. Parnell’s manifesto will have
no perceptible effect upon his dissident col
leagues, aud has resulted in defining more
strongly tho party split. Mr. Gladstone's
rejoinder will not tie generally known iu
Ireland umil Monday.
A prominent Pnruellite said to-night
that it was a question of Mr. Parnell and
HO home rule, or Mr. Gladstone and home
rule, and that it was certain Ireland would
decide in favor of the latter.
A MEETING OF THE NATIONALISTS.
The Irish party met iu the parliament
building this afternoon. Mr. Parnell was
not present. Nothing was done at the
meeting.
The Cork clergy held a meotiug to-day to
consider the situation, and adopted a resolu
tion declaring tnat Air. Parnell had for
feited their confidence, and that his reten
tion iu the leadership would prove disas
trous.
Justin McCarthy has communicated with
hi) colleagues in America by oable, and is
said to have influenced several wavarers
against Mr. Parnell. Tho defeat of Mr.
Parnell at the nationalist meeting on Mon
day is now considered a foregone conclusion.

mentary party envoys waro given a rousing

The resolutions adopted extend a hearty
welcome to the euvoys from the Irish par
liamentary party as faithful and zealous
ctampions of tne causo of liberty, pledge
the participants in the meeting an -w to tne
cause of home rule for Ireland, denounce
afresh tho outrages and wrongs infiictel
upon Ireland, and submit that tho time has
come to arrest the methods of the present
government of Ireland. The resolutions
continue:
While conscious that the cause of home rule
Is b- no means dependent upon any Individual,
we should lie untrue to ourselves and to the
justice o£ the cause should we fu gto recognize
the splendid services ol Cri£Jtes Stewart
Parnell. Tho Irish people owe to
him a debt of gratitude which can
never be fully paid. When all seemed durk
ness and doubt, he sounded a tocsin which
called into action an army of resolute and he
roic men, who. for more tlian ten long years,
have stood with absolute singleness of purpose,
wit i unquestioned purity of motive, aud with '
patriotic fervor almost without parallel in tho 1
world s history. •***
In the crijls presented at this moment it does
not b -comeiis to attempt to dictate to the
Irish people as to their course. Wn rocoirnlze
that they upon the Immediate Held of ac
tion, with infinitely better opportunities lor
forming judgment tliaa are presented
to us. lienee, to them and their
authorized representatives, we leave
all questions of policy and leader
ship, promising lasting ar.d hearty support to
their judgmenr and choice. It is our earnest
hope that with calmness, forbearance anil ex
ceeding wisdom they will so order the affairs
of the Irish parliamentary party as to silence
all disoord. and mat hand in hand with the
great common people of England they may
move on to victory

(Copyright, 1?'J0, by the .Y eic York Associated
Press.}
Berlin, Nov. 29.—Dr. Israel, Prof. Vir
chow's assistant, has made an examination
ot pieces of tissue taken from the body of a
patient wnich Uad bee nno necrotic through
tne use of Prof. Kocu’s curative lymph.
He fotiud that t.iese shreds
oontalned bacilli, which was not
the case in the living tl-sues. A
rubbit will be Inoculated with virus pre
pared from these tissues In order to oscer
tain whether the bacilli contained ii them
still posies* vitality. Dr. Israel declares
that Prof. Koch’s remedy possesses distinct
healing properties.
IN THE EXPERIMENTAL STAGE.
Paris, Nov. 29.—Dr. Peaus read a paper
on Prof. Koch’s remedy before a host of
medical men in the amphitheater of tho St.
Louis hospital to-day. Dr. IVane summed
up as follows: “We are still in the experi
mental stage, and are uot yet able to de
duce definite conclusions. You must not
declare that these experiments demonstrate
that Prof. Koch has discovered an effective
cure. It is certain that he lias discovered a
remedy that promises to render good ser
vice. but we must wait to kuow whether it
will effect permanent cures.”
Berlin, Nov. 29.—Dr. von Dossier, the
Prussian minister of ecclesiastical affairs,
replying iu the lower house of the Diet to
ri ly to an interpellation of Herr Gratf as to
what measures the government Intended to
take to promote the adoption of
Prof. Koch’s remedy, declared that
the aspersions cast upon oer
tuu phydo.aus engaged in using
the lymph had proved ground ties. The
finance ministry. Dr. von Dossier said, had
placed at the disposal of Prof. Kook suffi
cient funds to e able him to continue his
Inquiries and produce the lymph. There
was now good ground to hope that the rem
edy would he found to he efficacious in tho
treatment of other diseases than tuberculo
sis. Care bad been taken to make the rem
edy perfectly accessible to tho poor, in ‘the
course of time the preparation of the lymph
would be intrusted to competent persons em
ployed by tho state. A* privato gentleman
had given 1,000,090 marks, the minister
stated, to be used for the ben
efit of poor persons suffering
from tuberculosis. He had requested Prof.
Koch to make public only to a limited ex
tent tho composition of the lymph so us to
render its imitation Impossible. Toucning
the present preparation of the lymph. Dr.
von Dossier said that Prof. Koch and Drs.
Libertz aud Pfuhl had been at work solely
In procuring a supply and had demonstated
that it could lie procured very cheaply.
GOVERNMENT CONTROL.
Beg irding the question of placing the
uiauuljtctuiu of tho lymph undor the exclu
sive control of tho state Dr. von Dossier
thought that a fooling of satisfaction
would be exfierlenced throughout the world
if Prussia should set her stamp upon the
lymph, but a guarantee must be given
against financial or subsidiary criudtU'in*.
The government would eventuully invite
other nations to seuii representatives
to study tho use of the remedy in
order that they might apply it in their own
countries. Dr. von Gossler’s statement,in
dicating as It does intended prolonged
guarding of tho secret of the lymph, disap
pointed tbe numerous foreign medical man
assembled here. The English group affirm
that it is Populous to expect their college or
physicians to recognize the use of ths
lymph, as it is against the canons of tne
collage to permit the apphoalion of a rem
edy the composition of winch U secret.
REASON FOR SECRECY.
Dr. Kowalkskl, the leading Austrian
army physician and chief of tbe institute
of bacteriology at Vienna, defends the
guarding of the preparation of tho lymph
on the ground that it is ouo of the most
powerful medicine# discovered, a id cannot
he applied too cautiously. Prof. Koch say*
if it were placed without reserve In the
hand* of all practioners more deatlis would
result from its use than over were caused
by consumption.
A limited company is being formed iu
Munich under Prof. Zeimscn. with a capital
of 2,990.909 marks, to establish a KooU
sanitarium in the old Gumphen palace.
FIVE PATIENTS DIB.
Five patients who were under treatment
by Prof. Koch’s method have died In this
city. Two girls, who wore in an advanced
stago of tuberbuiosis aud a child suffering
from brain tucerouiosis, died soon after the
tint injection, and one yonng man died
from hemorrhage after haviug received
several injections. The fifth death wa*
that of a soldier, who was under treatment
for lupus.
