The Masters Report I'm the Russell
Case Concerning the Receiver.

CLEVELAND, May 26.-0scar Townsend, as
receiver Of the c., T. & w. Railroad, yes
terday addressed an official communica-
ton TO the special master who filed the
report in the Russell case, in which he in
Vited the attention of the master to that
part OF his report in which it is stated
that the receipts exceed the disbursements
during the period of his reCeivership $780, :
UVO, and that at tie time demand was made
upon him as receiver to pay said note he
had funds in his hands ,Ihich, upon prop
er application to the court, might
have been applied TO the payment
OF at least a part OF the note.
In His Cons nieatfon
the receiver claims thai lis testimony was
that the earnings OF the road exceeded its
expenses $500, 900, but Il 1t the surplus in
his hands was otherwis applied by orders
OF the court, and submits statements veri-
fed by the records whi,& are more in de.
tail than the evidence originally offered.
and which, for that reas''n, more fully ex-
plain the testimony anCs controvert state
ments Of counsel repeatedly made during
the argument and not ihen disputed or
questioned by opposing counsel. These
statements now cited frdm the records IN
the case, but not offered in evidence before
the master, show that a. the time the note
was presented the receiver had no funds
with which to pay the same because other
wise applied by order of the court.
The Communication
and accompanying statements having been
submitted 10 the master, and that part OF
the report referred TO not affecting IN any
respect his findings in the case or making
any change therein necessary, the master
expuuged that statement of fact from the
report, which had not yet become matter
Of record or passed beyond his control.
This leaves the record of the court free
from any reflection upon the receiver in
the respect stated and shows that the state.
ment originally made did him injustice,
but leaves the report in all other respects
as published and the conclusions on all the
propositions as originally made.

THE BREWERS ORGAN
A the Capital on the Ohio Political
Outlook.

WASHINGTON. MAY 2G.--Mr. Louis Schade,
editor OF the Seminal, the Washington or
gan OF the brewers, prints in his paper OF
to-day some political notes OF d late trip
10 Ohio. The folloming are extracts:
"On trip West last week we had an op-
portunity 10 cast some glanCes into the
boiling Cauidron OF Ohio politics: Inc
Democrats are still unsettleG. Geddes
as candidate for Governor IS
out OF the question. The Leading
German Democratic papers, such as
the Cleveland Waechter, Governor Muel-
!ers paper, are opposed to him, because
they could not induce their friends to SUP
port him sufficiently so as TO secure his
election. Judge Hoadly is personally
liked, and would make good candidate.
General LeFevre is also mentioned; but
the strongest candidate, and for whom
Judge Thurman has come out, would be
General Durbin Ward. The latter is
not merely sound on prohibition
issues, but he would poll
full Democratic vote. AS twelve thousand
Prohibitionists will most likely vote this
time the straight Republican ticket, it
will be necessary for the Democrats to
bring out those thirty thousand Democrat
ic votes in the old Democratic counties
that were missing al the last election. II
Ohio Democrats, at their next State Con-
vention in June, take decided and un-
equivocal position, both in their candi-
dates and platform, on the old Democratic
issues, OF which personal liberty is one OF
the most prominent, there is hope for
them. Half-and.half declarations and
actions will not do.

A WONDERFUL DREAM.
A Peculiar Picture of DreamIsnd,
with n Remarkable SEQ ueI.

Boston, MASS, May 2G.-The Globe OF
"One OF the most remarkable occurrences
ever heard of was related to me this
morning" remarked State street broker
yesterday. II have heard OF good many
wonderful dreams, but this has some fea-
lures about it which border on the mar
vellous."
What is the story" queried another
broker, whose business WAS apparently
dull enough to allow him plenty OF time
to study the miraculous, since he Lad al
most forgotten how to buy and sell.
Well" replied the first speaker, Il was
told to-day by leading city hall eiitcial,
whose
Trustworihiness Is UndOubted,
that q daughter of the late Harvey Jewell
who was so well and favorably known in
Boston in legal and business circles, and
was q brother OF the late Marshall Jewell)
had recently a very queer and unusual ex-
perienCe. and one calculated to make a
deep impression upon the strongest mind.
Some weeks ago she had a dream in which
she distinctly saw an undertaken drive up
TO her residence with hearse. He was q
peculiar looking man. His queerly shaped
nose, which looked as if il had been broken
and was twisted to one side, gave his coun-
tenance an expression which would have
made identification easy and certain. He
came directly toward her, and, Is he said
Are you all ready? she suddenly awoke.
The Dream
seemed peculiar one, but did not attract
very much attention in the household un'
til, a few days or a week later, 1t was re-
pested with exactly the same character
istics, down TO the Are you all ready
and the awakening.
And now comes the strangest part OF
the story. Some little time afterward the
Young lady was visiting in Cincinnati and
went TO an apartment hotel to call on a
friend. She stepped into the elevator with
Others, and was startled to hear Are you
ready" from the man in charge. She was
still more startled on looking around and
beholding the exact picture OF the man oil
the dream, even to the
Misshappen Nose.
II made such an impression upon hel
mind that she requested 10 be let out OF the
elevator at the first landing. She stepped
out, anG the other occupants went out a.
the next landing, and the man renamed
The elevator machinery gave out; sudden
" the car went up; and then down, anc
the man was instantly killed.
You have all heard OF the warnings o.
dreams. All can say is that this Is tht
| first well.authentiCated case have eyel
| known, and il it does not border on the
supernataral l do not know what doe.
| II was good way to restore one peace o.
mind, but most remarkable sequel.

A WARNING TO HOUSE BURNERS.
An Incendiary Strung Up and Shot by
n Mob.

MEMPHIS, May 1.-THE Avalsnche's Ma
rianns, Ark, special says: The usual quiet
of our little town was thrown into state
of excitement this morning about clock
by an alarm of fire which proved TO be the
large stable Of II. \ Derrick. In few
moments it was wrapped in flames.
Those who first reached the stable
endeavored TO force open the front door
and failed, but gained entrance through
the rear. The fire spread rapidly and
nothing was saved. Eight or ten tine horses
rerished Some were cut loose from the
Stalls but could not be driven out. Der
rick's loss is heavy; noinsurance. But for
the rain storm au hour previous, the 6usl-
ness portion OF the town would have been
Burned Out by Iueendiaries.
\ short while after suspicion pointed to
a negro man, discharged several days since.
He was arrested, but denied his guilt,
but he was locked up in the ca
booSe. The proof was so convincing
that a body of masked men took him
ont and lynched him, and then shot him.
They attached card ts his body which
read, This Is a warming to all house burn
ers." signed, Citizens" The verdict OF the
Corouer's Jury was that death was caused
from pistol shots by parties unknown.
The night watchman at the calaboose was
shot twice in the leg in his efforts 10 save
the prisoner. The negro had bad repu'
tatiOn.
