Letter from Webb q

"TCESLEY l. ROTHPLETZ. "

"TCESLEY T. ROTHPLETZ'
Last week we published state
ment relating how one c. II. Tuesley,
Of Perham had used us in regard to a
little bill he was owing us. Since
that we have received letter from
him with $s3 enclosed, amount of the
billy which he asks Us to publish, but
we do not think it worthy of publica-
tion, and will only give synopsis of
it. He makes the plea that when he
received our bill he was building 4
house and did not have the money
to pay it, 50 laid the bill aside and
forgot it. The second fill he never
received, and when the draft was pre-
sented he told Mr.. Hurst to send it
back and he would remit; that he had
been to st. Paul two or three weeks
and did not have a cent. Now, in our
business transactions we have to be
prompt or furnish good reasons why
we can't pay our bills, and we think
that Mr.. Tuesley's excuses are pretty
thin. He refers us to Hon. o. p.
Stcarns, Of Duluth, two to one the
Judge don't know himD and to other
gentlemen of Detroit, and says they
can testify rs to how hard he has
worked for success, and the luck that
has followed him. He says he "can
stand or fall by his record" and tries
to make out that we have made an at
tack upon his character. Not 50. We
have nothing against Mr.. Tuesley (he
has paid his bill)--it is the detestable
way lie has of doing business. We
are really sorry if he has 4 hard time
to make live of it, but will say that
he will never he successful if he at
tends to business in the same manner
that he attended to our bill, and that
his actions, to an 'outsider,' are in
dicative of a good deal Of dead-bcat-
ism.
Following we publish letter from
Messrs. Webb & Pcake. of this city.
which tends to show that Tuesley is
not alone in this way Of doing busi-

Extra Cars on the AveRue-The Propose

Extra Cars ON the Avenue-The Proposed

Mr. Hurt" said THE REPUBLICAN last night to
the president of the Washington and Georgetown
Railway, chow many additional cars will you put
on your road?'
ave have ordered twenty-five, and will run
twenty regularly"
Extend the time of running them later?'
"No. These additional cars will be put on say
from eight O'Clock in the morning until eight in
the evening, and will run from Eighteenth street
west to the east front of the Capitol. The time
table will be about minute between each car.
Before and after the hours named the same num-
Der of cars on the same time as are now occupied
will be run"
SIS it true that you will reduce the fare to three
cents?
II think the directors at their meeting next
Wednesday Will establish the fare at three cents
for the distance have mentioned-from the east
front Of the Capitol to Eighteenth street west For
the through trip, or for transfers the fare as
is now paid will be charged"

not sec any use for it. The two main lines of the
city, the Washington and Georgetown and the Met

any part of the city, except the northeast section
on either of these roads for single fare of five
cents. therefore don't see what purpose could be
