TIE slllv report sent out a lew days
ago. that Senators Blaine, VOORHEES,,
Morgan and others were organizing a
new party, is pronounced by Morgan
and VOORHEES, too absurd to deserve
consideration. 1t is wonderful how
exercised some people are over the
actions of Mr.. Blaine. The fact that
he is able. and popular with The peo-
pie. seems to be sufficient reason to
induce continued effort to traduce
and SANDER him Though it is little
more than we might expect, for with
a certain class of men, the very fact,
of a man, by his ability or industry, or
both, succeeding better than they, IS
sufficient to produce a deep rooted
jealously and hatred-feelings which
such narrow minded people never
fail to seek an opportunity to manifest,
but the prompting motives are usually
so poorly hidden that any one can see
through them Now in Mr.. BlaIne's
case there were no probability of his
his being candidate for the presi-
dency in 1854. there would be no
ISLANDERS because he would not be in
any ones way.

The Democrats find little consola-
ton in the new apportionment, so far
as it affects the Electoral College. The
gain of thirty-two votes is very evenly
divided between Democratic and Re-
publican states Dakota will add
three votes more to the Republican
column. New York will continue to
be the pivotal point. Democratic
hopes Of carrying the country without
New York are sure to be blasted, and
hopes OF carrying 1t with New York
are Just in vain. for New York is and
will continue to be Republican.

CHICAGO, Sept. AT the general office

ness The distances from Chicago to
Kansas City by the different competing
routes is as follows: Chicago. Burlington
& Quincy and Hannibal q ST. Joe, 4S9
miles; Chicago, Rock Island 81 Pacific,
500 miles; Wabash, st. Louis & Pacific,
513 miles; Chicago & Alton, 4S9 miles
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy and Kansas
City. st. Joseph d Council Bluffs, 462 miles.
The Burlington road intends to build new
line from Browning on the Burlington &
Southwestern to Kansas City, los miles.
This will give the Burlington the shortest
line between Chicago and Kansas City,
ALL miles. The southwestern pool lines.

commissions to be paid ON the sales be-
tween Chicago and Missouri river points
This agreement has expired by limitation

A NeighbOrhOod Feud,

The Lavinskis and the Schultzes live on
Poverty fat, near the stock yards. When
it isn't the Schultzes asking for warrant
from the municipal court, it is the LAWN
skis. Yesterday it was the old lady, La
vinski herself, with an umbrella who
wanted a warrant for the arrest of Mary
Schultz. Mary wasn't a good neigh
bor She said Mary associated
too much with politicians at least
they were always on the fence. Twenty of
these politicians would go to see Mary in
one night. The house was too small to
hold so many and Mary had to keep them
in the back yard To keep them quiet
Mary would give them bricks to play with.
A playful brick would sometimes carelessly
fall over the fence and strike stepfather
Lavinski, or perhaps the baby in his arms.
Mrs. L. wanted warrant wanted it bad
but could get along without it if she had
to. She was refused warrant, and then
went her way, vowing that she would use
her umbrella. or some other terrible weap-
on, if those twenty lambs of Mary's didn't
behave better in future.

ANOTHER DISAPPEARANCE.

a Man Suddenly Slips Out of Town in Con-
sequence of Money Implications, Unit
ed, Perhaps, to Women.
Paul Hammerbacher is his name. and he
hammered his hackers well. For the last
few days he has been wanted. and like a
good many other things, could not be had.
His creditors wanted him badly and the
sheriff wanted him, but they could not
have him. for it was impossible
to discover where he had gone,
but gone he was. He slipped out very
slyly and was far away long before his
duped friends knew of it, Uncertain re-
port has it that he left in company with a
lady in upper town, or that he went to
meet her. and that he is now safe in
Canada. He leaves a wife and four chill
dren. and before long there will be five of
them. Hammerbacher had recently
formed partnership with a man
named Miller in the book binding bust
ness. To carry on the business he required
more money and so prepared several notes
amounting in all to $1,000 or $4,000, and
obtaining the endorsement of number of
his friends. he without difficulty got the
money on them from the banks. He was
also the financial secretary of
the grand lodge of the Sons of
Hermann, and had in his possession
$500 belonging to that order. This
amount he deposited in the German-Ameri-
can bank in his own name. On this and
everything else that Hammerbacker owned
the sheriff yesterday levied for the credit
ors 1t is reported that ne was seen day
or two ago at Duluth with some woman
that belongs here in st. Paul. This part
of the story stands, however. OF very doubt
full authority. Dispatches have been sent
in all directions to head him off, but no pos
tive trace of him has been found. George
Benz and Henry Orlemann are his bonds
men to the lodge.

MILWAUKEE, Sept. 4.-The Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul Railway company has
begun the erection i'll the Menomonee val
ley of building eighty feet wide and 400
feet long, just south of the blacksmith
shop in the present plant. This building
is to be devoted to the manufacture of car
wheels, and from it, when once in full ope-
ration, there will be turned out $50 wheels
daily, or an annual product of
20,00O,O00 lbs of castings. These figures
are enormous to contemplate, but they
convey only faint idea of mammoth
railway corporation. There are at present
employed about the various shops of the
plant not less than 1,40O men and the num-
Der will be increased to upward of 1,5OO
when the car-wheel foundry is completed.
Of the present working force about 800
reside in the heart of the city and are car
ried to and from their daily labors by an
immense train of passenger cars, morning
and evening, while the remaining 500 scat
ter in the direction of the western suburbs,
on both sides of the valley.

Hannibal purchase by Gould syndicate
was considered an excellent thing for the
market. The Hannibal position has been
considered serious obstacle to a bull
movement. It is rumored that Burlington
bid thirty five for the stock, whereupon
syndicate accepted it at forty-two. Parties
who have been carrying stock concurred
with Duff in the sale. 1t is uncertain
whether the stock, $4,000 shares
will be used in connection with the Wabash

brokers bulled preferred as well as com
mon, but preferred stock holders feel some
uneasiness The Hannibal road could be
servicable to the Union Pacific, Missouri
Pacific or Wabash. 1t controls the Kan
sas City bridge. It is rumored the Union
Pacific would guarantee 7 per cent. on
preferred; that in order to bull common,
preferred would be sustained and
sufficient business given the road
to make payment of dividend
on the common appear plausible. The
Burlington people profess unconcern.
We think the existing agreement will
not be broken. but it is intimated that the
Burlington, if necessary, could parallel
! the Hannibal line. A house familiar
with Hannibal negotiations, has appeared
a steady buyer of Union Pacific. This is
considered evidence that the Hannibal

Mr.. BLAINE has opened the campaign
in Maine by what doubtless was intended
to be great speech that would attract the
national gaze. It is his first political
speech since the campaign of 1880. 1t had
in it 10 point of national concern, if we ex-
cept his turgid laudation Of the Republican
party. His eulogy, however, may turn out
to be its requiem. His speech was belittling
to a great character. It was entirely de-
voted 10 raBing over of the dregs of the
little party squabbles IL the State OF
Maine and an arraignment of Plaisted. the
Greenback Governor. The speech was not an
exhibit of heavy ordnance, but pre-
scented only the patter of small arms
harmless ut either short or long range
Evidently the 'plumes" Of the much
lauded '-lnight' are bedraggled. That
the Republicans are alarmed for THEN
safety in Maine IS evident, for the
number of imported = orators
who are now perambulating the State, all
pledged to make twelve speeches apiece
Clearly it is feared that the ex-Secretary
does not carry guns enough to hold the
fort, and hence this scur~ying and harry
ing to aid Blaine of Maine" who, by the
loss of his own State, would suffer a total
Presidential eclipse.
