EDS. REPUBLIcAN:-The continu
ed fine weather is highly favorable
to the numerous building and i'm
provement projects now under way
in this place.
Work on the new passenger de-
pot has been suspended for the
present. The foundation has been
completed, and the day that the
brieklayers were to begin work, an
order was received to cease opera
tions until further orders. The
building was intended for the use
of the P, Fl. W. & C. R. R. alone.
Judge Hurd, of the C. Mt. v. d D.
R. R. learning of this independent
movement visited the officers of the
Pennsylvania Company and pre-
vailed upon them to change their
plans, and contract a Union Depot,
for the use of both roads. 1t is
hardly probable that there will be
much more done on the building be-
fore Spring. aag r.
Work on the freight house is still
progressing, and the foundation will
soon be ready for the brick work.
Mr.. P. Everly is building a new
eating house on the south side of
the P, Ft. W. & C, track, directly
opposite the site of the new. Depot.
Large shipments of apples and
stock from this place this fall.
A change of time on both roads
takes place to-day. The change in
the time of the morning trains is SO
little as to be scarcely perceptible.
The train from Millersburg connects
both east and west as formerly. The
afternoon train from Millersburg
makes direct connection for the
west.

BURIED ALIVE.

A sad incident occurred at the
County Infirmary, five miles from
the city yesterday, resulted in hor-
rible death, the burying of a small
lad named Murphy aged five years
"a reel-footed child who was deser-
ted by an inhuman mother to cloak
her shame. From gentleman who
was at the Infirmary yesterday we
learn that two pauper children
named Phil. Sheridan and Andy
Stewart, or James Holley, repaired
to the orchard, a short distance be-
low the Infirmary building, and dug
a hole. After effecting this part Of
the diabollcal act, the two little
fiends, whose ages are respectively
five and nine years, repaired to the
Infirmary grounds and caught the
little reel-footed boy and carried
him to his living grave. Shrieking,
yet without the power of being
heard, the little victim was caught
by the young executioners and
forced into the hole. Holding him
down, they shoveled in the earth
and stones upon his writhing body,
sitting his cries as best. they could,
until the poor deformed boy ceased
to struggle and the spirit took its
fight to Him who gave it. The two
young murderers went back to the
house without informing any one of
the deed, and the buried boys alb
sence was first noticed by Mr.. Por-
ter, the Superintendent about one
o'clock. Upou making inquiries, a
little black boy informed him that
Andy Stewart and Phil. Sheridan
had buried "Limpy" down in the
holler. On going to the spot Mr..
Porter found the newly made grave,
and below the surface the lifeless
form of little "Limpy." To-day
Mr.. Porter was, in the city, ,and made
application to Judge Martin, of the
Probate Court, to have the two young
murderers sent to the Reform school.

INDICATIONS.

1t is shown most clearly in the
result of the late elections in Ken
lucky and Maryland, how deep and
genuine the current of Republican
feeling is throughout the country
Kentucky, though Democratic as
usual. at the late election, made q
grand aud glorious advance toward
Republicanism, and now comes
MARYLAND, which like Kentucky, is
incorrigible in its devotion to the
Democratic party. The Republicans
had not a single member in either
house in the last Legislature; neith-
er had they single judge or county
officer in the whole State. How is
the present political complexion
The next Legislature, which was
elected on Tuesday of last week,
will have at least Is members in the
Legislature, and numerous miner
officers in different counties. That
is not all: but the Democratic State
ticket is elected by a largely reduced
majority. With California and
New York redeemed from Demo
cratic rule, and with the figures made
by the State of Maryland and Ken
lucky from the conservatism of bor-
der State neutrality towards genuine
Republicanism the signs Of the
times are of the most hopeful char
acter of our political future. Let
our national affairs be conducted IN
the future as they have been in the
past, and the universal desire will
be next fall to continue the Repubi-
can party in power at Washington.

DEMOCRATIC PANIC.

The Democratic panic is spread
ing far and fast. Even Detroit,
which has regularly elected a Dem
ocratic city government for the last
unbroken twenty years, has aston
ished itself by electing a Republican
Mayor by 1900 majority. Tammany
in New York has not only ruined
itself, but has made the very name
of Democracy q matter forsuspicion
everywhere.

SCHTYLER'S BILLS.

WILLIAM NJ. TWEED RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR
ALTERATION-ROBERT WINTHROP, CLERK
OF NATsON'S, GUILTY OF ALTERING THEM
sCHUYLER's REFUSAL TO TEST1FY-HIs PART
NER, JAMES z. MILLER, SAID TO HAVE BEEN
IN CHARGE OF THE ACCOUNTS.
THE TRIBUNE lately published the fact that
evidence had been found to show that William
NJ. Tweed was personally responsible for the
payment of G. L. Schuylers altered bills. The
evidence on which we based that startling
statement will be found in the following:
REPORT OF SPECIAL COMMITTEE ON AMOUNT
PAID G. L. SCHUYLER g. co.
WM A. BOOTH. ESQ., Chairman Of CitiseRI Committee.
SIR: Your Committee beg to report that on the
9th ultinO they called upon Messrs. 6. L. Schuyler
& Co. in order to procure duplicate bills or vouchers
for the lumber said to have been furnished the city
by that firm and for which there appears by the city
acoounts TO have been paid to them from April to
june g. 1870, the total of e46SOSs 27-loO. We
saw Mr. Garret L. Schuyler, the principal OF the
firm, and stated the object Of our visit
In reply Mr. Schuyler stated that his former part
ner, Mr.. James L. Miller, had at thst time
the charge of those accounts. and likewise OF
the collection of the bills, but thst he, Schuy-
Ter, had no means of ascertAinng the amount
of said bills or the amount paid to Mr. Miller by the
city but that he knew that only $4,000 was returned
to the rmf or the lumber delivered also, that lum-
ber TO that extent Of value was delivered and no
more. He said he could show us on his ledger the
amount Of money received, together with the dates
and the quantity of lumber delivered. Upon our re-
questing Mr. Schuyler to show us his accounts he
Yefused.
On inquiring where Mr.. Miller could be found Mr.
SCHUYLER replied that be had not the remotest idea
and that he had not seen Miller for six months.
We asked Mr. Schuyler to meet ms on the following
morning ct 1890 O'Clock ct the New Court
House, for the purpose of getting his acAnowl-
edgment to the genuineness Of the Endorsements
the warrants for the eAoS,OS9 27-lOO. This he
likewise declined doing. Our interview with Mr..
Schuyler proved cOnclnsively his unwillingness TO
give any further testimony regarding these psrtcu!
lar transactions
We therefore, the next morning, called upon
Deputy Controller Green, requesting him to Ghow us
ahe Schuyler warrants, which request Mr.. Green inn

THE INDIANS
Turning Citizens.

YANKToN, D. T., Feb. 13.-Eleven
Indians, representing families of forty
five persons, to-day signed papers before
acting Governor Batchelder renouncing
their tribal relations, and claiming citi-
zenship preparatory TO filing claims On
their homesteads on the Big Sioux, north
of Sioux Falls. This makes thirty-seven
homesteads taken there by Indians, rep
reseniing nearly 200 persons, all members
of the Sautes Sioux band of Indians, con-
cerned in the Minnesota massacre In 1862.
They left the tribe in Nebraska, twenty
five miles west of here, nearly two years
ago, and although they have received no
assistance whatever from the Government
since then, they have proved self-suppOrt-
ing, paying debts more promptly than
white settlers, and have proved peaceful
and law-abiding citizens, sustaining
churches and two or three schools. This
step in advance of the reservation system
is deserving of encouragement from the
Government.

Accident on the Northwestern Rail-
road.

As passenger train No. 2 was coming
from Memphis to this city on the North
western road, on Sunday morning, she
met with an accident when nesT Hollow
Rock, some ninety-three miles distant
from this city. II was about four O'Clock
in the morning, and the accident was OC-
casiOned by large body of sand being
washed down on the track from sand
bank rear by, covering the rails over with
sand The train came along all uncOn-
sciOus Of the danger ahead, and the en-
CINE mounted the sand bank ard rolled
over on one side of the track. The train
stopped, however, before any of the cars
shared the same fate; and the train sus-
tanned no particular injuries outside the
locomotive and tender, and no person was
hurt except the engineer, Mr.. Fogerty,
whose hands and wrists were very badly
scalded. He says he was out at the time
the engine flew the track, on the side
board, which runs along the engine fore
and aft, on the fireman's side, engaged
for moment in adjusting something,
and it is thought he must have grasped
hold of the safety valve when he felt her
turning over toward the opposite side
from that which he occupied, and in
this manner was scalded by the steam
issuing therefrom. He arrived in the city
Sunday evening, when his injuries were
promptly cared for by medical assistance,
and he is doing as well as possible. The
track was cleared and the engine again
set on her iron path by noon, and in the
evening the train was brought in, passen-
gers, baggage and sll, in good shape, hay
Jog only been detained six or eight hours.
This was fortunate escape, indeed; but
the Northwestern Railroad has become
almost proverbial on account of its free
dom from accidents Of any kind, and
this accident was fault of natures
not of the officers of the road.

CONGRESSIONAL.
SENATE


WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-Mr Thurman
presented q resolution from the Ohio Le-
gislature requesting Congress to pass no
more land grants.
Cincinnati's Road.
Mr.. Sherman presented a memorial
asking authority from Congress for the
Cincinnati and Southern Railroad Com
pany to construct a road through the
State of Kentucky, permission being now
withheld by the adverse action of the
Kentucky State Senate. Mr.. Sherman
expressed bis hearty concurrence in the
PRAYER of the memorial, and his belief
that if there was any time when the Fed
eral authority might be properly exer-
cised in railroad matters, it was when a
State obstinately placed itself in the way
of the construction of a road desired
alike by the Northern and Southern peo-
pie as a means of communication. The
was ordered printed.

Mammoth Machinery.

We noticed at the Louisville depot yes
terday the machinery intended to be put
into the great cotton factory Of North
Nashville, Il came from the celebrated
machinery manufacturing works Of KLots
& KRONER, Ssndusky, Ohio. We have
seen heavy machinery in our time, but
this lot is the heaviest of all that we have
ever seen. There are two mammoth sta
tionary engines of long stroke, great shafts
and castings of various kinds, and bal
auce wheel, in two sections, that meas
ure at least fifty feet in circumference, and
weighing many tons. The whole lot re-
auired several flat cars to transport it, and
is no less than a wonder to see. 1t would
seem as though it was quite impossible to
cast such tremendous machinery before
one sees it. The mammoth new factory
is to be no child's play, verify.

Faithful BOY.

We noticed a listI9 fellow yesterday
standing guard over little parcel of goods
on the street, which the owner had babe
him watch until be returned. He was
ABOUT ten years old, of ''mixed colors,
and was at the time we noticed him Just
about stiff with the cold. In answer to a
question as to why he didn't leave his post
and 60 and get warm, he said he wouldn't
leave that place till his boss would come if
he froze, which 10 our notion was a little
too faithful aud honest il the lad to be
fashionable these days; and we feel conf
dent he must be the only surviving brother
of the boy that stood on the burning deck
whence all but him had fled.
