The Suicide at Br1xhton Beach.

 BROOKLYN, Aug. 31.-The inquest on the
 body of the woman who committed suicide at Brighton Beach on Wednesday was held to-day, and the evidence showed that she was not married and that neither she nor her companion were named Hazleton, although they had lived under that name for over B year. The mans name is Charles H. Corn well, the son of an Albany architect and the brother of gentleman connected with the First National bank of that city. He took the name of Hazleton when he became bar tender, twenty years ago. The woman's name was J. E. Leonard and she was the daughter of James Vandevoort of Clinton N J., and niece of Senator Carpenter. Corn well said they had both been drinking heavily and he had an indistinct recollection that they had quarreled, but about what he could not remember. He knew that she had thrown her bracelet at him and had threat ened to commit suicide. He also found her watch in his pocket. He gave the man Mor- gan, who rescued her, $50. The foreman of the jury was not entirely satisfied with the evidence and Justice Williams, who acted as coroner, adjourned the inquest

Denver, December 12.-The tripar-
tite agreement is the chief subject of
conversation among railroad citizens
to-day. Commissioner Daniels saw no
aus for alarm 30 far as the Colorado
pc oil was concerned, it having been in
existence sever years, and was so
thoroughly established as to be III affec-
ted by outside quarrels. Representa- =
tiyes Of eastern roads and officials of
the Colorado pool roads, with M or
two exceptions, were not inclined to
believe that the terms of the contract
were such as not to be necessarily fatal
to the Iowa pool, and regard the affair
as a street movement. yet nearly all
agree that in case the Iowa pool breaks
the dissolution of the Colorado pool is
only a matter OF time.

One of the principal members OF the
''Javelins," an organization that has
recently made its appearance in south
west Texas, has revealed some of the
motives actuating the fence cutting in
a struggle that Is cutting Texas to the
center. Said he: 1--WE are like min
now In a pool Of hungry trout. Some
big stockman buys all the land around
on all sides. His cattle Craze on our
land and ours On his. When he makes
his rounding our cattle are driven off
to some distant point on his large
ranch with his. Our calves are sepa-
rated from their mothers and In the
confusion are branded with his brand
and are driven off with his cattle"
"But If the land was not inclosed
wouldn't this same thing happenS"
mo, not to the same extent 1t does
now. When the range was free every
body's cattle ran at large, and no one
thought of rounding up and driving of
every COW In sight"
Don't you think If a man owns
land he has a right to fence 1t if he
wants tor"
"No, sir; no man has u right to fence
you up or enclose the grass or water.
He didn't plant the grass or have any
thing to do with making 1t grow.
Neither did he create the springs or
rivers. God made them free, and be-
fore these land sharks and cattle kings
put fences around them they were free.
The grass is just as good and will fatten
his cattle just as fast without a fence
around 1t as within"
"But what is the use of owning land
II you cannot do as you please with
it?'
"You IA do as you please with it.
If you want to cultivate it put up your
fence, pillow up your land and plant it.
We won't bother you. What you work
for and plaut is yours, but grass is free,
and no man has a right to claim what
does not belong 20 him.
Haven't the pasture men offered t
! do almost anything you ask?"
