SANTA FE, Kas., June "A special
to the Commonwealth says. the great
railroad war that has been raging in
Colorado for the past two months las been
brought to . practical termination by a
conSurrent decision rendered Saturday ny
judges Dillon and Halle.. The controversy
has been between the Denver and RIO
GraHde company and the Santa Fe, over
the possession Of the Grand Canon of the
Arkansas river, for the purpose OF connect
ing their respective lines. The Canon is
very narrow, and it is walled very high. so
that practically but one road can be butt
through; for this reason it is pass of
great strategetic importance as controlling
railroad movements in western and south
western Colorado. The A. T. & s. f, r.
R, or the Canon City and Sanjuan Il. r.,
local corporation organized in the inter
est of the former company, filed plat of
its located line through the Canon in the
spring of 1871. and it was approved by the
secretary of the interior. The rival
company based its claims on special
| franchise granted by congress in 1872. In
| April last both companies moved stimuli
taneously with large forces of work men and
commenced grading through the Canon: !:
| as both companies seemed determined 10
bold possession, it gave rise to great
excitement for the time; blood she'd was
imminent; the matter will, however. be
speedily carried to the circuit court OF the
United States for Colorado. Upon appli-
cation of each of the companies for an
injunction against the other, temporary,
restricting orders were issued against both
com panies until the matter could be fully
and maturely considered. The result is
that Judges Dillon and Halet decided the
previous right of occupation is with the A,
7. & s. L. Co. and that the d. Il r. u,
Co. acquired no particular right through
the Canon. The former company is now IL

large force of workmen, grading on tht
extension of its line to Leadvile. The D.

forces. The decision is regarded as /

DIR. SCHCNCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP
SEA WEED TONIC AND MANDRAKE PILLs.-These
medicines have undoubtedly performed more cures
OF Consumption than any other remedy known to
The American public. They are compounded o.
vegetable ingredients, and contain nothing which
csn be Injurious to the human constitution. Other
remedses advertised as cures for Consumption
probably contain opium, which is somewhat dan
gerous drug in all cases, and if taken freely by
consumptive PATIENTS 1t must do great injury; fol
Its tendency is to confne the morbid matter in the
system, which, of course, must make cure impos-
sible. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup is warranted
not to contain particle of opium it is composed
OF powerful but harmless herbs, which act on the
lungs, liver. stomach, and blood, and thus correc
all morbid secretions, and expel all the diseased
matter from the body. These are the only ueant
by which Consumption can be cured, and al
Sehenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic ant
Mandrake Pills are the only medicines which op-
crate in this way, it is obvious that they are thu
only genuine cure for Pulmonary Consumption
Each bottle of this invaluable medicine is accom-
panied by full directions. DR.. Schenck is profes
sionally at his principal office, corner Siqth an(
Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every Monday, wher
all letters for advice must be addressed.
