st. Paul a terminal point on the Milsoau-
kee and st. Paul road. ae q.
That GAN BE DONE BY TEARING UP THE
TRACK WHICH CROSSES THE LEvRE
Section Nine of the ordinance which gives
authority for the Milwaukee & St. Paul road
to cross the levee is as follows:
''Sec. g. The corporation of the city of st.
Paul hereby reserves the right to alter, modify
or repeal this ordinance at any time when it
may deem it necessary to the public interest or
public welfare.
The time has arrived when both sspublic
interest and public welfare demand the
REPEAL. Mayor Dawson should call
meeting of the city council at once, and be-
fore another afternoon train from Chicago
has time to cross the levee, the ordinance
should be repealed aud the rails removed.
From the expressions of several aldermen
who were seen last evening, there is no doubt
of the feeling in favor of the repeal. St. Paul
has the power to make this terminal point,
and if the popular will is not respected by
repeating this ordinance, the people will be
justified in at least making the repeal prac-
tical by putting the rails in the river which
now adorn the levee. 1t is time to raise the
black flag against this insolent, naughty,
overbearing, piratical corporation. They
have invited war with St. Paul. and let them
have their fill.
Until the legislature meets let st. Paul in
her corporate capacity grapple with her
deadly enemy and when the opportunity ar
rives let the legislature apply the remedy
which the Supreme Court declares valid and
which is foreshadowed with tremendous i'm
pressiveness by the new California consti-
tuition. The act is only one of long series of
outrages perpetrated on this city by that cor
poration and fQrbearance ceases to Ibe vir-
tue.
There was but one sentiment prevalent in
the city last evening, as far as the outrage
| was known, and the GLOBE does not give too
| strong an expression of that sentiment in
| the comment above. There can be no shift
! ing of blame upon irresponsible subordi-
mates, no apologies and no explanations.
None are wanted or would be believed, or re-
spected if given. An outrage, such as
was perpetrated yesterday, is such an
utter disregard of law and de-
cency that the corporation perpetrating it
becom IS pirate, and as pirate the people
of St. Paul should consider and treat the
Milwaukee & St. Paul road. Meet the
black flag with the black flag, and let it be
| determined whether or not the people are
slaves to insolent and overbearing corpora
tions. No compromise and no quarter.

Albert Lownsbroush Drowned In the River
Last Night.

Albert Lownsbroush Drowned In the River
Last Night.
At $3.50 o'clock last evening Albert Towns
brough, an Englishman, and Henry johnson,
two deck-hands OF, the steamboat Aunt Betsey.
disrobed for bath On the north side of the
river, near the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
freight house. The men plunged into the
river from the stern of the Aunt Betsev and
swan down the stream some distance from the
shore After remaining in the water short
time, johnson struck out for the boat, on near
ing which he observed that his companion was
still swimming down the river.
Believing that Lownsbrough was making for
the lower end of the barge that lay some dis
stance from the Aunt Betsy, johnson called
out that he thought the distance too great to
be made easily, and that he had better return
to the shore. Capt. j. @. Smith, of the Aunt
Betsey, who had been watchingithe bathers, OBJ
served that Lownsbrough losing strength,
on percelving which he ordered the yawl
launched, for the purpose of bringing him to
the shore.
Before the yawl could be launched, however,
LoWnsbrough was drawn under the edge of the
barge, and when last seen all that remained
above the water were his hands, which leads to
the inference that after losing strength death
was caused by strangulation. The remains
were recovered by f. G. McLogan about
o'clock, and when foun the body rested about
ten feet from the barge and thirty feet from
the bank of the river.
The deceased was twenty-nine years of age,
and had been employed on the Aunt Betsey
about two weeks, and so far as heard from he
was unma rried, and had no relatives in this
country. A number of letters were found in
his coat pocket which indicated that he had a
sister living in Leeds, England, brother in
Australia and one in Scarboro, England.
The letters were all of friendly character
and the style of the diction indicated that de-
ceased had belonged to the better class of Eng
lish families. Depnty-Coroner Harrison was
early on hand, and the inquest was expe-
ditiously conducted with the following named
persons acting as jurors: Charles Eichler,
Louis d. Phillips, 81. G. Doune, Edward Berg.
Patrick Scanlon, and W. W. Barker.
The first witness, Capt. J. G. Smith, testi
hed to having observed deceased in the water,
and to having ordered out the yawl when he
observed that the swimmer was losing strength.
Witness had known deceased about thirteen
days; his habits were good, and he could assign
no motive for his death, but was under the
impression that he had died from strangula-
ton.
Henry Johnson, the next witness, testified to
having entered the water in company with de-
ceased. They swan about eighty feet from
the shore. Witness had returned, leaving de-
ceased in the water and when last seen he was
making for the lower end of the barge
+. G. McLogan testified to finding the body,
as before stated. The jury returned a verdict
OF death by drowning in accordance with the
facts. The remains will be inferred to-day.

TIE MISSING MAN.

A Clue to Schreil's Wheabouts-He js Re-
ported to Have Gone to Bismarck-Resi-
cence of His Wife. s.. e.
The particulars of the sudden and unaccount-
able disappearance of John Schreil, well
known German resident and business man.
near Tenth and Fort streets, in this city, have
already been detailed. Yesterday, some fur
Their details were CLEANED, which, while far
from being conclusive, still throw a CLEAN of
light on the mystery. Late in the afternoon it
appears that a telegram was received by Mrs.
Schreil, which stated that her husband had
been at st. Cloud. and had left that place, o.
tenslbly for Bismarck, yesterday morning. Last
evening GLOBE representative called at the
residence of Mrs. Schreil, with the view of
ascertaining all the facts in relation to the
telegram and anything else connected with the
case. +.... .... -. ...- h.
On making known his errand, the reporter
found Mrs. Schreil decidedly indisposed to talk
on the subject. She admitted the recent of a
telegram, and also that it did not bear her hus-
bands signature. She said, however, that
every thing was all right and that he would be
at home IN about two days, that her husband
fed no harm had befallen him. She refused
emphatidally to show the telegram to the re-
porter on the ground that the pa
pers had nothing to do with her business and
that there was nothing in it concerning the
public or which the public ought to know any
thing of. -
The reporter questioned her sixteen year old
daughter-a decidedly comely young girl who
spoke English very freely, as to the contents of
the telegram, but the mother promptly inter-
rupted her and forbade her saying ANYTHING
whatever about it..
Finding that no further particulars could be
cleaned from the family. the reporter cues
toned several neighbors as to their knowledge
of the contents of the telegram, and learned
that it came from st. Cloud, and had been
sent by third party and not by the missing
man, and that there was nothing in it which
led to the inference, or warranted Mrs. Schre,I
in her statement that her husband would re-
turn in two or any other number of DAYS.
The contents of the telegram had become
noised abroad among the neighbors soon after
its receipt. and are no doubt correctly given
above thereby utterly discrediting Mrs.
SchreiTs statement that her husband would be
home in two days. The telegram, in brief,
neither warrants this statement, nor was it
from Schreil, nor did it give any information
as to the cause or causes of his disappearance.
or any other facts which she is doubtless anx-
l"us to learn, in connection with the case. For
some unexplained reason, Mrs. Schreil who
talks English very imperfectly, is decidedly
averse to newspaper notoriety and conse-
quently squeamish as to imparting what little
Information she may have on the matter.

aroused to sense of their duty to the cause
they profess to serve. It is their duty to
drive out those who use the church only as q
cloak under which they can disguise their
own mercenary designs. The transeressors
ought to be driven out without so much as
an opportunity at apology, for they are q
disgrace to any society, more especially to
an organization presumably composed of
persons superior to ordinary mortals. The
church must purge itself of men who adhere
to it only for the temporal benefit it confers,
and the sooner the work is inaugurated the
better it will be for the cause of true religion.

HHF OUTRAGE OF THE MILWAUKEE

EHF OUTRAGE OF THE NIL WAUKEE
d. ST. PAUL ROAD.
The GLOBE this morning records the
greatest outrage ever perpetrated by any
railroad upon any city of the commercial
Importance of st. Paul. There seems to
have been q rivalry between the Northwest
ern and the Milwaukee & St. Paul roads for
the transportation of some soldiers from
Chicago to Fort Smelling, and the Northwest
ern carried off the prize. AS the Northwest
ern and its connecting link-the Chicago,
st. Paul 81 Minneapolis road-do not run to
Fort Smelling, those companies brought the
soldiers to st. Paul, intending to have the
Milwaukee g. St. Paul road transport them
the intervening six miles from st. Paul to
the Fort. AS the Northwestern contract
was TO deliver the soldiers at the Fort, the
Milwaukee & st. Paul road apparently
thought to subject that road to annoyance
and expense. At all events the soldiers ar
rived in st. Paul (via the Northwestern and
G. st. p. G. M. roads, about an hour in ad-
vance Of the afternoon passenger train from
Chicago, on the Milwaukee & St. Paul road,
and were held in waiting for the
train on that road to arrive.
1t came and it went through the city at the
rate of twelve or fifteen miles an hour, leav-
ing the soldier train standing on the side
track, leaving the would-be passengers in
waiting at the depot, and carrying those de-
string to alight to rock-pile in the suburbs,
where they were dumped to walk back to the
city, and transport their baggage as best
they could. The details Of the outrage are
fully recorded in our news column, and we
do not need to reiterate.
st. Paul expended one hundred and fifty
thousand dollars by way of bonus to ena-
BILE this railroad to run through this city.
In doing this the city expected that st. Paul
would be terminal point. When that de-
fusion was dispelled our citizens supposed
That the city would at least be station on

about two per cent. The fault is laid at
President Jewett's door, and it will remain
for him, if he wishes to keep the stock in
