CHICAGO, Nov. 24.-Hon. r. II. Whiting pub
fishes card in a Peoria paper denying that
he settled for the Cunningham whisky in the
long pending case in that city. At meeting
of general passenger agents called by the Han
nibal & st. Joe railroad to investigate the
charges against the Chicago & Alton railroad,
representatives of all the southwestern roads
were present. None of the witnesses which
the Chicago Alton requested the Hannibal &
st. Joe road to produce were present. In the
afternoon Mr.. Morse, general passenger agent
of the latter road, withdrew the charges, q
step against which the Chicago & Alton vigor-
oualy protested, Mr.. Charlton lntimating the
belief that there had been conspiracy to
manufacture evidence against the Chica-
90 d Alton by some one in
the interest of the Hannibal &
St. Joe. He also offered to prove the con-
spiracy ont of the mouths of witnesses for the
Hannibal & st. Joe. He disclaimed, however,
any imputation ON Mr.. Morse, who WAS not in
his present capacity when charges were worked
up. By vote of the meeting the charges
were then withdrawn. Mr.. Charlton then
entered charges that the Hannibal d st. Joe
had sold second class unlimited tickets to New
York in violation of the agreement. The meet
ing sustained the charge, and found the
Hannibal & st. Joe guilty. and inflicted the
prescribed penalties. This meeting has been
looked forward to with considerable interest
in all railroad circles, and the result was q

Couple of La Crosse Newspaper Men Have
Shindy. '
Foote, of Pomeroy Il Foote, publishers of the
La Crosse Democrat, assaulted Mr.. Finch. of
the Republican and Leader, Saturday evening.
Foote knocked Finch down with violent
blow of his cane, and Finch, recovering bis
feet, drew . revolver and fred two shots, but
Foote skipped away 40 rapidly that be lodged
the bullets. -a' .5@ - i N=@ ssS
The two papers have been sparring away at
each other, but the immediate cause of tho A.
sault was the following article in the Leader,
Mr.: Vincent being Foote's father-in-law:
when Mr.. Vincent put up the amount neoes-
sary to enable Pomeroy to get away from Chi
tic newspaper, he did not know that tho bank.
rupt WAS then added. Vincent had forgotten
him almost entirely, and being desirous of
helping poor devil who was down and the
tax collector on him, he went into the
Pometoy rookery to the amount of ten thou
sand it is said, and rumor has it that he has
put up on the notes that have matured since
the rambling wind bag started his ''own and
only in La Crosse. MIR. Vincent did not know
that Pomeroy had peculiar and faverite
way of getting business and negotiating
loans, and it is understood that he is
looking for q successor to the widow maker"
We should very much regret the departure of
Va
Crosse, for where he is SO we'll known in busi-
ness and social circles, and SO thoroughly de-
spised his opposition is positive help to who
ever he attacks; but if James really wants to
get rid of the incubus, all he has got to do is
to stop putting up for month. The boys over
in the concern on the corner, edited by the
bounced Greenback jackass, are used to wait
ing three weeks for their money, but they have
resolved to grant no further extensions. If
our ex-fat friend had as much regard for truth
and principle as he has admira, ion for brass
and falsehood, he would not now be depend
ent and hireling, traitor to every cause he has
espoused, and a social evil of the most ag-
grayated type" ss.--..
The article in the Democrat Saturday morn
ing, to which the above was retort, read as
follows:

Il Man With a Baby's Mind.
PITTSBURGH Dispatch.l

A very singular case comes from Bureetts-
town, which place the Rev. DR.. Marcus Or
mond left on Saturday that he might walk
through the Southern States in search of
health. DR.. Ormond was born and raised
in Bargettstown. His education was of the
best. He became an honored clergyman ef
the United Presbyterian church, and served
as chaplain of the One Hundred and Fortieth
Pennsylvania regiment during the war.
Late one night in 1873, while he was in bed.
word reached him in Washington, Pa, that
his residence and fine library at West Alexan-
dria had been burned. This was a great
shock to him. In March of last wear he
complained of pain in his head. For two
months he was unconscious and lost hin
speech. Gradually he began to mako known
ms thoughts, but he was very much like q
child. Mrs. Ormond and his children work
cd hard with him, and finally he learned the
alphabet and could make out short words.
He knew the faces Of his children, but could
not remember their names. When he
wanted Mollie he would ask for Clara. Tha
physicians advised that his mind should not
be overstrained again. They also concluded
that his weight should be reduced, for he
was in robust physical health. and he was
fed with skinned milk. By: such treatment
his weight was brought down from 22O to
100 pounds. BE has not improved any for
the last year. His writing is merely me-
chanical act-simply q copy of the words
bis wife writes for him. Singularly enough,
ne IS able to count and can make good
bargain If the transaction takes place on
The same occasion. He takes great interest
IN the Grant boom, and likes to have no.
tices of it read to him. Physicians cannot
account for his condition. He goes on the
walking tour to strengthen his mind. His
wife and daughters are carrying on fur
nishing store in Burgettstown.
