RAILROAD MORTGAGES.

Important Suit at Milwaukee Against the
C,M. y st. p. Railroad Company.
MILWAUKEE, April 7.-Argument in one of
the most important railroad suits ever tried in
this country began in the United States Circuit
court to-day. The case involves some $4,O0O,-
900 and the validity and ownership of the
charter and franchise on which the Chicago,
Milwaukee Il st. Paul railroad is founded, and
makes subject to third mortgage many Of
the securities as liens of the company. The
suit is brought by William Barnes, Albany, N.

closure. Hon. Francis Fellows, Hartford,
Conn.,. Hon. Joshua Stark Of this city, George
Scoville, Chicago, and T. Barnes, trustee, ap-
peared for the plaintiff and j. w. Cary, of
Milwaukee. for the defense. Litigation in the
case began many years ago. and 1t IS
probable that final decision will now
be reached, rs the court has
ample jurisdiction and all the facts
are presented in the pleadings. The arguments
of Barnes and Stark were finished to-day, and
were to the effect that the decision of the
United States supreme court and the decree OF
the United States circuit court, affirming the
validity of the third mortgage security for
the bonds issued under it, are decisive of the
right of Barnes to maintain bill for relief
against the company, which procured such
decision and decreee on the creditors bill, and
therefore, the company are estopped from

On the St. Paul & Sioux City train arriv-

ON THE Road TO RUIN.

Mother Swears OuL u Warrant for the Ar
rest Of Her Fourteen Year Old Daughter.
At late hour yesterday afternoon Mrs.
Mary Trinkweil entered the municipal court
room and swore out warrant for the arrest
of her daughter Mary, young girl only
IA years age, who had been Influenced to
laave home by an older sister and her para
mour man named Charles Adams. The
girls, Mary and. Kate, resided with their
mother and stepfather on Broadway, near
Fourth street, and the disruption of their
hitherto happy homo is attributed by the
mother to the bad influence of the man
Adams, whose depraved and insidious ad-
vances alienated the affection of the girls,
in an apparently legitimate manner. He
first paid his addresses to the Oldest daughter,
Kate, young lady 18 years of age, and
after short courtship, gained her own and
parents consent to their marriage.
The strange part of the story,
as related by the mother, is to the effect that
the two were married, as every one supposed,
in perfectly formal and legitimate manner,
after which they took up their home at the
family residence on Broadway street. A few
weeks since information was received by the
mother that the marriage of her daughter to
the man Adams had not been properly SOL
emnized and that the twain were
residing in her own house in
an open state of adultery.
Whether or not the girl had been deceived
by the william, is not known, but the irfa-
nous conduct of the pair was Indignantly
rebuked by the mother, and they were order
ed to leave the house which had been 80
grossly profaned by their presence. They
removed to the corner of Fourth and Rosa
belle streets, in house that is said to be of
ill-repute.
systematic and successful attempt was
then made to induce the 14-year-old daughter
to leave home, which she deserted few days
since to take up her abode with the guilty
and unnatural couple. The distracted
mother vainly attempted to rescue her child
from the terrible and impending fall, and as
last resort a warrant was applied for yes
terday. She will be arrested to-day and sent
to the reform school.

Severe AMiction,

The many friends of the Rev. VIM. Mo
Kibben, pastor of the Central Presbyterian
church, will be shocked to learn that his
family circle has been invaded for second
time by the fell destroyer. On Thursday
last their infant daughter, aged 2 years and
5 months, fell victim to malignant scarlet
fever. On Saturday night another daughter,
a little less than years, the eldest child in
the family, fell victim. The afflicted
family have now but one child remaining,
where week ago there were three. Not
the least sad affiiction is the fact that the
disease was SO malignant that no funeral
services were held, the child dying Saturday
night being promptly buried Sunday morn
ing, to prevent the spread of the disease.
The disease was communicated to Mr.. Nc
Kibben's family by his being called to of
fciate at the funeral of child which had
died from scarlet fever. The afflicted family
can have the assurance of the deep sympathy
of the community in their hour of trial.

citizens. This is special and strictly OBJ
served custom, enjoined for all time, with
all lsraelites. The ceremonies are Impress

forms of an important ceremonial. The
observance is celebration of the day
when the Lord was given sign by sprinkled
blood upon the door posts a.:d passed over

WHISKY CASES.
The supreme court rendered the following
decision to-day: Nos. 29,93O, 29,9sl, 29.e32
90, ,933, 1884, 20 ,9s5 and 29,975, United States
plaintiff in error VS.. 3. M. Ford ct al, and va
rious quantities of distilled spirits in error tc
the circuit court of the United States for the
northern district Of Illinois. The above, known
as the whisky cases, were suits to recover
double taxes and enforce forfeitures upon va
rious quantities of distilled spirits for viola
tions Of the internal revenue laws. The de-
Tense set up was based upon the alleged agree
ment made by the owners of spirits ith the
district attorney guaranteeing to the forme,
immunity from prosecution if they woulc
plead guilty and furnish evidence to convict
their accomplices. The court holds that tn
district attorney has no authority to maxi
such agreement and that when an accomplict
discloses the guilt of himself and his associ
ates, he merely establishes equitable It'll
to the mercy of the executive, and can ask tn
court only for postponement of the trial in or
der to give him time to make application TO
pardon. The Judgment of the lower court
therefore reversed, and the causes remande'
for further proceedings in conformity thereto

amble asserts that the company has failed to

only completed its road to Venita Indian Ter
ritory, distance of 125 miles from the western

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

The Boom Substantially COmpleted-A
oils Resorting to Steam Power for Saw
kills-The Park Question.
At the meeting of the chamber of COM
merce yesterday morning a communication
was submitted from tho secretary calling at
tention to the importance of having lumber
inspector in the city. The communication
was referred to the committee On manufac-
lures.
Mr.. McClung, from the committee on
boom, reported that the boom would be fin
ished on the 10th inst, and ready to receive
logs. The boom company had leased it for
five years to Kent, Kusk & Co., of Eau
Claire, Wis.,, they to pay rental of twenty
five cents per 1000 feet of logs handled.
An act of Congress and an appropriation of
$50, 900 provided for sluice way to run
logs over the falls, and reliable estimate was
that at least $4,000, 900 feet would come this
year. 1t could now be considered settled
that in month st. Paul would
have work for saw mills and
with their advent would come cheap fuel,
which would enable MS to compete with any
point in the State as manufacturing center.
He wanted it to 60 out to the world that St.
Paul had all the advantages for mills of ev-
cry description which any city in Minnesota
can boast.
Gen. johnson said that the Hon. VIM. s.
King had printed an article in his Minneap-
oils paper Sunday, wherein he proposed the
removal of the saw mills to
a point above tie falls and
running them by stem power. Gen. john
son read the following passage:
This change of base would, it is true, ne
cessitate the use of steam in place of water,
but we are not sure but that in the long run it
has proved itself the cheapest. It furnishes a
steadier power, the fuel costs nothing, and a
mill of the same size run by steam will saw
more lumber in a day than one run by water.'
Gen. johnson thought this proved that ST..
Paul had every advantage which Minneapolis
possessed for manufacturing purposes.
