road at that point Considerable complaint
has been made BY New Orleans and other
Southern cities, that trade with Chicago in
many classes of merchandise, of the high
tariff of the Illinois Central road and as
the competition Of the p. & d. will make
il by thirty-siX miles the shortest route,
there can be no reason why we can't offer
that road fair competition. We will then
have direct route from Chicago to Cairo,
the head of all Southern trade, without
change Of cars. So we say let it come,
and we will extend our hands in brotherly
welcome.
The Paducah News, receiving its in
formation from Marshal Birschett, refers as
follows to the arrest of the Idlewild thieves
From Mr.. B. we learn that the arrest of
| Woods and Eevans was brought about solely
through the information the Cairo police
received from this point; which was sent
forward by Mr.. B. Fortunately the two
raSCals had been arrested on the charge Of
breaking the peace and had been locked
up. When the telegram from Marshal
Birschett, informing the police Of his sus-
piciOns, reached that place they went out
to Jail and examined the rascals and got
the watch and jcwclry. There was no third
party in the affair, as we stated in our last
Upon Mr.. B, reaching Cairo the police
there offered to give up the prisoners, if he
desired; bnt as they refused to come to Pa
ducah they were tried as stated. The lady
who lost the iewclry had been notified Of
the arrest and had gone to Cairo to identify
her property. She reached Cairo on the
Fisk, and shortly after her arrival the trial
took place. The young lady got her watch
and last night returned to this place on her
way to her home in Evansville.
Her gratefulness to Marshal Birschett in
securing her watch and chain will no
doubt give him good reputation, in
Evansville at least"
AS we have before remarked, the police
Of Cairo regard the affair in the light of a
very commonplace transaction. From the
commission Of the theft up to the prcimin-
airy examination of the thieves nothing &C.
cured that betrayed anything beyond very
ordinary detective sagacty. But since it
is IA much-talked of affair, it is well enough
to have the facts known as they actually
TRANSFERRED. Briefly, they are as follows
