aDeRrau ding Railroad Companies

An extensive scheme for defrauding
railroad companies has been exposed
in the West. Bogus tickets wereissued
in the name of the Peoria, Decatur and
Evansville and Lake Erie and Western
roads, to be used over the St. Joseph
and Santa Fe, Missouri Pacific, and
Union Pacific Railroads.
The general agent Of the Santa Fe
Railroad returned from Hannibal, Mo-,
bringing 900 bogus tickets, representing
an average of $25 each. The tickets
were printed by W. II. Folsom, a prin'
ter, at Quincy, ILL.,, employed by Ross.
Last Wednesday s. K. Hooper, general
passenger agent of the st. Joseph road
receiving an inkling Of the affair, visit
ed Folsom and adroitly worked all the
secret from him, and secured 800 of the
tickets which had been printed in com
pliance with the recent order of Ross,
together with the letters of the latter
Folsom protests his Innocence Of any
knowledge of fraud in the transaction.
Letters have been found in Peoria and
Quincy duplicating l.. d. Ross, of Peo-
ria, who is under arrest, but 1t Is not
known to what extent he was assisted
by confederates. The tickets were sold
at certain points to parties going to il
termediate points, and rebates were
given by the conspiring scalpers at
these intermediate points. The tickets
were then destroyed, and thus never
reached the auditing office.

LONDON, Sept. 4, 1884 despatch
from Oarlsruhe, Germany, announces
that train OF cars running between
Freibsrg and Colmar left the rails near
Hugstetten. Fifty persons were killed
and many were injured. There were
twelve hundred persons on the train.
Nine carriages were shattered. The
accident was caused by telegraph pole
which had been struck by lightning and
fell across the tracks.
A telegram from Mulhouse states
that 100 persons were killed and 300
others injured In the railroad accident
near Hugstetten. The train which was
wrecked was an excursion train and
was made mp of twenty four cars. Nine.
teen coaches were smashed to pieces OIL
shot down an embankment into q
swamp, where their weight caused
them to sink. The number of persons
smothsred In the deep mud of thu
swamp has not yet been ascertained.
A despatch from Berlin says:-"Th'
train wrecked near Hugstetten was {
special Sunday excursion train. Somt
OF the suffering survivors were takeI
to the University buildings at Freil'
burg, where they were carefully attend
ed to. Some of the dead were mutt
lated beyond recognition. II appear
that the train was overtaken by heAv!
storm of wind and rain. One accoun
describes the disaster to the washing q

What WRsTt?

About 6 80 o'clock last evening the
burglar alarm connected with Spencer's
dry good store at Seventh and Market
streets, struck at Police Station, and
Officers Andrew Moore and Zerby hur.
ried to the place. They were followed
in minute or two by Sergeants SOva
and Eatton, and Officer Tucker. One
of the doors was found part way open,
and the officers entered and searched
thesplace. There was no one found or
the premises, neither was there any
thing disturbed, and the supposition il
that the door was not properly fastened
and some one pushed it open. 1t IL
scarcely probable that anyone would
attempt to rob the pace at that hour in

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.
Two Williams Attack Anton HontI
i'm font OF His Residence.

i'm front Of HIS Residence.
About II o'clock last evening, Mr..
Anton HenZe, proprietor of the saloon
124 King street, was sitting iE front of
his saloon, when he was approached by
two mep, who made some remarks,
which were replied to by Mr.. Henze in
a friendly manner, when one of the
men struck Mr.. HentZ stinginR blow
in she face, followed by another, which
stunned him for few minutes, during
which time one of the miscreants grab
bed his gold watch and chain from his
pocket. Mr.. Hentz defended himself
as best as he could with blackjack
and shouted murder in loud tone,
which brought out several men from
his saloon and those In hearing
distance, one of whom succeeded in
capturing one of the villains. The
captured man begged for mercy, but
he was not released until the arrival OF
a policeman, who took him in custody
and lodged him in The City Hall. The
other man made his escape but will no
doubt soon be captured. After the
man secured the watch and seeing that
all chances of escape were cut off, he
threw the watch into the street and 1t
was recovered by man standing near,
who returned it to Mr.. Henze.
The assault was one of the most
aggravated that has been brought to
public notice for some time and the
parties who committed the outrage will
no DOUBT be dealt with according to the
strictest terms of the law. The affair
created some excitement in the noigh'
borhood at the time, and the securing
of one of the roughs was due to the
agility of Mr.. Reeve who happened to
be in that vicinity at the time of the
assault and held on to his man until
the arrival of the police.

Itwas stated yesterday that ex-Sup'
erlntendent of the Almshouse Phipps
was seen in Jersey City early on Fri
day morning, in company with a wom-
an, supposed to be his wife, and that he
took one of the regular b ats tor AL
bany. The supposltion is that he is
now in Canada. Yesterday, with an
other search warrant, detective and
several members of the Board of Guar.
dians of the Poor paid second visit to
Major Phipps' boarding house, No.
34l9 Walnut street, and looked into a
number of closets which were found
locked on Saturday. Here were found
another large quantity of stores belong
ing to the Almshouse, consisting of can
ned goods, liquors, dry goods, sc.
There were also found a number of
private papers and promissory notes
aggregating in amount to over $3.50, 600.
1t is thought that these papers may
throw some light rpon the Major's
transactions. The total value of goods
recovered during the two days search
of the Walnut street house will foot up
about $4,000.

nected with the passage OF the Ed.

"Let us guard well our franchise,
and in one unbroken phalanx main.
tain and sustain our political status,
and as patriots and freemen operate
together In defence of what few liber-
ties are left to us--in the defence OF
the Constitution, and of the inalien.
BILE rights of man which are above and
before all onstitutions-and thus per
petuate the inestimable blessings Of

This Illumination is said to have been
caused by the Commissioners prescri'
bipg an oath for those who are to tes
tify, in which they are required to
swear o. affirm as follows:
"I do further solemnly swear (oI
affirm that l am not q bigamist nor a

the aid Of Mr.. Scott, won $46O, 900 from
Francis p. Weed at draw poker and fa-
ro, arrived yesterday on q visit to Scott,
who Is still i'll at Briggs House. His
condition leads to the belief that he
may soon be able to return toiNew York,
aud answer the suits brought by Mr.,
Weed and the State against him. DR..
Hedges converBes very lightly about the
matter. He says:
1--WE have q solid defence IN the civ
IL suit. The law makes gambling loses
recoverable only within three
months Of the play. That shuts Weed
out. The Commissioner Of the Pool
might bring suit under the old law Il
recover the money, but that would bt
like any other action or debt, and h.
would have to find the money before h,
could recover it. At all events, nj
such suit has been brought yet. Ther'
are still the indictments for conspiracy
and gambling, but I'm not growing
thin In worrying about them"
"Then you don't propose to give NJ
any of your winnings 2"
"Not much," DR.. Hedges replied
firmly and contemptuously. "No, sir
That money was fairly won. Weet
was not such q sucker as he Is sup
posed to be. He played pretty soliC
hand of draw. Why, he taught me tn

"He would over.bet his hand SOM

so high that particular night If h

We had had no proper tools for tn

GUITEAU'S BRAIN
a DolawaFean one of the Surgeons
10 Examine GutieAU's Brain.

DR.. E. G. Shakespeare, formerly
of Dover, where his family yet reside
but now of Philadelphia, and who is a
member of the American Rifle team, Is
one of the surgeons to whom was COM
mitted the duty of making a micro
scopic examination of Guiteau's brain
DIR. Shakespeare said yesterday thai
the report of the surgical commission
had been delayed, not, as had beer
enormously stated in some of the news
papers, because of any disagreement
among the surgeons, bu5 solely because
of the absence from this city of DR.. j
W. s. Arnold. The report was conclu
.ded and finally adopted on Sunday
evening at DR.. Arnold's house. DR.
Shakespeare added
"The report will be sent to DR.. Lamt
in time for publication next week. II
has been agreed to by all the surgeons,
and will occupy about column in the
newspapers.
The Investigations, DR.. Shakespeare
continued, had been had under the
most favorable conditions, the brain
tissue having been preserved perfectly
in the liquid in which it was placed
within six hours after the death OF
'Guiteau. Under the terms of their
commission, the surgeons we're not re-
quired to pronounce any opinion or tc
draw any conclusions as 10 the sanity
or insanity of Guiteau, but simply tc
state the condition in which they
found the tissue, and to point out
and explain the variations from nor
NAL and healthy brain. This they had
done with extreme care, and 1t was
now for the alienists, so called to make
their deductions.
It is understood that the full result OF
the examination made by DR.. Shakes
peare and his colleagues will be en-
bodied in a more exhaustive and per.
manent form than the present report.
They will be reviewed and discussed at
greater length in book, illustrated
with microscopic photographs and
drawings, which will unquestionably
prove valuable addition to the litera'
ture Of brain disease.
