Fanny Hyde

The fate of Mrs. Fanny Hyde, who shot
Watson, in Brooklyn, is for the moment de-
termined iavorably, the jury having disagreed
thus rendering new trial necessary. Strange
stories are current regarding the division Of
the jurers. 1t is stated that ten of the men,
for whose verdict the Court waited twenty.
nine hours, were in favor of acquittal; the
other two being obstinate in the opinion that
the woman was guilty of manslaughter in
the third degree. The most singular part of
the story is, however, that the former pleaded
hard with the latter for a unanimous verdict
Of manslaughter in the fourth degree, for
which the law provides = fine of 1000.

with his wife, in order 10 be ready for the

views on the movement which be represent

one in attendance who could speak for him,
TO which came the following reply, with no
restrictions as TO publication:

THE FAMiNEIN PERSIA.

Adyices from Persia state that the great
famine in that country Is increasing. In
Teheran, the capital city, the destruction is
becoming widespread, and it Is feared that
with The approach OF summer the disease and
epidemic, which partially abated during the
winter months, may again appear.

are reduced in their efforts 10 obtain food
are dreadful, the commonest herbs ard roots
being frequently used TO satisfy TIE cravings
of hunger. Numbers perish daily from
want and exhaustion. From all parts of
Persia similar condition Of affairs is re-
ported. Many of the towns and villages
have almost suffered depopuiaiion by the
protracied famine Some concerted effort
should be made by the civilized nations to
relieve the terrible suGeEings Of these unfor-
tunaie people. Although living at the an
tipodes they are none the less our brethren,
and common humanity revolts al our indif-
ference before such understandable horrors as
have settled upon Persia 1t seems to us
that our Christian Missionary Societies would
find there glorious field in which to display
their Christian spirit, and that they would be

there Is nothing to lose and much to gain by

We learn that there il a little lively and
useful competitios over nj LeAvenWorth br
tween railroads, which is resulting favorably
to the merchants and business men. The
Chicago 4 Southwestern railroad has lower
ed the rate Of freishts so as to compete With
the Hannibal & ST. Joseph, on goods coming
from and b. way OF Chicago, and also on
goods coming BY way Of the Missouri Pacific
from the east; The Southwestern brought
goods from Chicago and the east 10 the station
Just east Of Leavenworth bridge at SO low a
rate as to carry from thence by the Missouri
Valley road to ST. Joseph, al lower rates than
by any other route, either over the Hannibal
Il St. Soseph or he road. out of ST. Louis. In
consequence o: this competition, the Mis-
souri, Pacific railroad company has taken up
its frogs, by which connection was made from
the Leavenworth bridge TO the city of Leav-
enwOrth. Butthe Southwestern is still PDucky
and they deliver goods so Low as to work it
to the advantage ofthe merchants to get their
goods by that route. Mayor Anthony has
opened question with the Missouri
Pacific, by the Statement, that that road, or
the Leavenworth End Northwestern, Of
which the former leased, subject 10 all its
own rights and requirements, was granted
the right Of way through the Military reserve,
on illie conditions that j. should build its
road within one year, and il il failed, then
the right reverted to. the frs, company which
ahould build; and he states that the entire
right Of the Missouri Pacific vas forfeited
by failure TO b.,ild within the time. Ifthis

We are glad to see the Tribune aiding the

the State. The quarrel is no, local one,
affecting Leavenworth orly. The whole
State OF Kansas is concerned. The Chicago,
Rock Island 4 Pacific is the only unbroken
line Of rail from Chicago to Kansas, and the
obstacle interrosed by the Missouri Pacific
is for the purpose of compelling the Crock

OSE Of the coming events, and one which
it may not require many years to bring upon
US, is forecasted b. the St. Louis Demonai
in the following prophetic words:
The railroad growth of America has been
very rapid and beneficial. Incredible sums
of money are annually earned by American
railway companies, and 50 sti6-necked and
arrogan: does this fact cause some Of them
to become, that Law is often ignored and
lawmakers held in contempt. Undoubtedly
this condition Of things will precipitate .
conflict between the people and railway cor

cannot be a matter Of doubt which will be

q Suggestion 10 s.eaxe.worsh.

- Suggestion 10 LeaSenworsh.
Now, that her great Railroad Bridge over
the foamins Missouri u completed and u .
grand success, the eyes of Leavenworth will
be turned 10 other enterprises that will aid
in making her the metropolis west Of the
Missouri. Success in one enterprise only
makes corporations like individuals long to
conquer in new fields and in other plans.
Next to her Narrow Gauge Railway and her
Great Railroad Bridge, We believe q short
road, tapping the Missouri River, Fort Scott,
4 Gulf X. X. at Olathe, would benefit
Leavenworih most. A connection At Olathe
would open up to Leayenworth the Border
Tier, and give her the trade Of Ola,he. Paola,
Fort Scot, Baxter Springs, and all the lesser
towns ali ng its line. The people of Kansas,
no matter in what particular section they
reside, desire to build up Kansas towns.
While Kansas City would be nearer the mar
ket, we believe that four.ffihs of The trade
along the Gulf road, With direct communica-
tions, would give Leavenworth and her
dealers the preference. Let Leavenworth
heed this suggestion. She could afford to
build the road herself.-Paoia Spirit.
