Col. Jonas II. French was put on the Eastern

saws that it means anything but consolidation.

nections to New York, the South and West.
The new president of the Eastern, Mr.. Jack
son, is also president of the Maine Central

would then control line equal to one from
Boston to Chicago. The down-east country
is just beginning to develop" This was the
gentleman's solution, and it is given for what
it is worth.

CHEROKEE STRIP LEASED.

The Cherokee Strip Live Stock
Association has at last succeeded i'm
checting a lease of the entire Chcro.
kee "Strip" for five years at an an
nual rental OF 100000 There was
considerable opposition to overcome
before the lease was secured by the
association, as Kansas City parties
and some Cherokee citizens were
in opposition to obtain the lease.
The association is to be congratulate
ed for securing the lease at so liberal
a figure, and the Cherokoes are to be
congratulated for renting at price
which secures them three times the
amount of revenue formerly realized,
and prevents any shnnkago from
collection expenses, as the amount
is to be paid at the capitol without
expense to the nation. Both parties
are well pleased with the bargain.

nue., commission merchants), left this city on the

son is a native OF Fredericksburg, Va, and Is
about forty years old He had been here for
twelve or more years. At one time he carried on
the grocery business at 10th and In South
Washington, and was With T. J. Clark doing bust
ness under the name Of ID. NJ. Ream, at etc Louisf
ana avenue), as bOOkkeeper, and subsequently was
interested in the nrm. About July, 1851, he made
proposition to Mr. c. to cheat their credit which

dissolution of the firm was the result Some
months after this Hudson formed cOpartnershJp
with Mr.. r. II. Waple, OF Charlestown, West v1r-

that he has caused a loss OF about s., coo to the
creditors OF the firm, most OF them poor Virginia
shippers, In the valley and on the Midland Rail-
road. Mr.. Clark alone has received over 81 COO
worth OF claims against him, and inquiries are
