The Governor has issued a proclamation
offering a reward of $500 for the arrest and
delivery of John Perry, charged with MUIR
dcring John d. Bancon in st. Clair County,
on the 10Th of last July; also, offering a re-
ward of $500 for the arrest Of John HOrner,

The State Board of Railroad Commission
ers have recently been i'll session for several
DAYS in St. Louis. The members of the
Board state that several of the roads have
conformcd their rates to the new law, and
there is every reason to believe that others
will soon do so, although in a few cases it
has been necessary to bring suit at law 10
test the validity Of the acts in question.
When this point has been decided, all the
railroads, it is expected, will come into
line. During the last month the Board
transmitted to each company Il form for Il full
report of their condition and business, which
report is to be made by September /. The
law also requires that the committee shall,
as often as necessary. examine into the con-
ditiOn of all the railroads and their appurte-
nances in the State. and in September this
work will be commenced. In this work the
advice of the Secretary, Geo. &. Pratt, who
is IN old and competent engineer, will be Of
material assistance, especially as i'll former
years he has been employed in the cOns,ruc-
ton of several of the principal railroads of
the State.

From the Chicago Tribune.

Mrs. Tilton created a sensation IN the
scandal case, on Monday. Immediately
upon the assembling of the court she sent
up letter to Judge Nelson, with the re-
quest that he read it aloud. OF course the
Judge declined to grant the request, and,
of course, it was known to the instigators
of this extraordinary proceeding that he
would so decline The purport of the
communication Judge Nelson perempto-
riiy refused to make public for the pres
ent, at the same time indicating a desire
that Mrs. Tilron should pursue similar
course in regard to furnishing copies to
the press until the Court had first taken
some action in the matter. OF course it
was whispered about the courtroom that
Mrs. Tilton's letter embodied a petition
to be allowed to testify in the case, to-
eether with an asservation of her inno-
cence-all, no doubt, in conformity with
the programme. The presentation of the
letter was not surprise to some of Mr..
Beecher's lawyers, though it was wholly
unexpected by Mr.. Tilton and his coun-
sci. 1t is difficult to believe that the step
was taken by Mrs. Tilton on her own re-
sponsibilitY; she has been too comforta-
bly, cared for and too closely watched by
the Plymouth people to do such thing
without the knowledge or against the
wishes of Mr.. Beecher's friends. The in
ference is irresistible that this letter was
written for the purpose of bringing TO
bear upon the jury, in and out of the
courtroom, the moral effect of Mrs Til
toms apparent desire to bel eIheard as wit
ness in the case, and thus to overco me
the unfavorable impression produced by
the refusal of the defendants counsel to
receive her testimony; and also to sur
reptitiously convey to the Jury and to
the world her protestation of innocence,
without subjecting her to the crucial test
of cross s-examination. The scheme bears
the finger marks of Tracy and Shearman,
and will result in positive injury to Mr..
Beecher's interest.

A Plucky Editor.

Among the sufferers by the Oshkosh
fire was Gen. Tom Allen, editor and pro-
prietor of the Northwestern, a vigorous
daily. He was present and saw his office
and all its material go down, and then he
set about devising means for giving his
subscribers the news without a break in
the issue Of the paper. All the other of.
fees were burned out,and in all Oshkosh
a whole font of type could not be found.
He must needs go elsewhere, and at night
while the flames were slowly dying out,
he boarded the train for Fon du Lac,
taking with him his city editor. He then
secured the assistance Of the staff of the
Reporter and the consent to use their
press. The Northeastern was issued the
next morning, and few hours later than
usual was circulated among its subscrib-
ers in Oshkosh. This was what NAV be
called enterprise.
