Alexander Mitchell on the Railroad
War

Alexander Mitchell, Of the Chicago Mil
waukee & St. Paul road stated in an inter
view regarding the railroad war Sunday
night: Porter's demands are unjust.s Ny
company Claims the right to extend into
any part Of the country where necessity
seems to demand it. and where the condi-
ton of the country warrants such construc-
ton. the demands OF the Omaha road are
something the people won't endorse, mean
ing only monopoly and high rates. If they
are carried out, but one thing can result Sc
rious crippling of the railroad interests OF
the country"
Mr.. Mitchell had not come 10 any definite
conclusion, but those who are in position to
know say he will not agree to what Porter
calls "refraining from appropriating terri
tory of other lines This will continue the
war an indefinite length of time.
"Good Enough Morgan"
In letter to the Boston journal Ben
Perley Poore, of Washington, says: III.
Careful OF his reputation, it was not
strange that Mr.. Weed, as the end of his
eventful life approached, desired to remove
the stigma that he had been prominently
concerned in extracting a front tooth from
the ho3y of a drowned Irishman, and of
saying defantiy that He'll make a good
enough Morgan until after the election"
His Statements abOrt the taking of Of
Morgan are all hear say. When in Smyrna
some forty years ago, gathered great
deal of information about a mysterious
American who had come there soon after
the Mo- gan excitement. He received quar-
terly remittsnces, and finally died there.
Were disposed 10 give hearsay statements,
I think that I could show the missing
Stranger was Morgan, who vas paid liberal
" by the anti Ma.Qns 70 absent himself
bit who hoped after some years had
elapsed, to reform to the State of New York.
l cannot prove the statement, and my own
oath would not make my stats.uents OF
what saw heard and red LEGAL evidence.

tain air and rest from the labOrs Of her
profession would improve her health.
Growing worse she was sent to tho Phil:,.
delphia hospital at tho beginning Of last
week in the belief that she would receive
better treatment there than it WAS posi-
ble to give her in Altoona; but where,
unhappily, she died as above stated.
Miss Brooks was = native OF New York

Normal school in 1867, and was for several
years successful teacher in that institu.
tiOn. She was possessed Of q fino intellect,
which had been cultured by q thorough
course Of study, and she entered tho pro-
fessiOn of teaching with an enthusiasm
born of love OF leaning. Sho was u true
Christian woman, highly esteemed by all
who knew her, and will be sadly missed
and sincerely mourncd, not only by her
relatives, who were devOtedly attached tO
her, but also by her fellow teachers and
pupils, and q wide circle OF admiring
friends.
