KANSAS CIrY, Dec. 3.-JournaPs Atchi-
son special: The board of railroad commits
sioners to-day inspected the repairs on the
first ll3 miles of the Central Branch rail-
road as made by their recommendation.
They find that the road has been greatly I'M
proved, though much needs yet to be done
TO bring the road for the first 40 miles west
from Atchison into state deficient repair.
The commissioners have assurances from
the management that new material will con-
tinue to be furnished for this line sufficient
TO put the whole road in thorough
repair. There has been but one accident
during the year to passenger trains, result
ing in slight injuries to several passengers.
The report covers the ground thoroughly
and makes good showing. Much still re.
mains to be done to make the first hundred
miles of tue road equal to the average rail-
road in Kansas, but good progress is being
made under the personal supervision OF SUI
perintendent Pagan, and $4,000 has been
thus far expended for new track material.
MANY wheat fields along the eastern diyis-
ion of the Central Branch railroad are dead
showing that the Hessian fly has been al
work. Reports from farmers indicate hOw,
ever, that no damage has been done west Of
Waterville. Its ravages being confined to

Leman-Brand Case,

CHICAGO, Dec 3.-The federal grand jury
to-day visited the Office of the county clerk
and personally examined the vault from
which it is charged the envelope containing
the ballots cast in the Second precinct Of
the Eighteenth ward was distracted and
two hundred forged tickets put in place o.
a like number cast at the polls. Judge
Blodgett also issued an order for the pro-
duction of ballots the second time before the
grand jury and they be examined this after
noon TO determine what bearing the testimo
nv given as to the printing of forged tickets
has upon the case.
The Daily News will say tomorrow thai
during the examination ofthe alleged forged
ballots bv the United States grand jury to-
day, Falls, who engraved the fac simile o
the head of the bogus Republican ticket
and Wright, of Hanscom & Co., who set VI
and printed the body of the ticket, wer'
called in and shown the tickets which wer'
supposed to be fraudulent, and that Falli
identified the head as that engraved by hin
by certain accidental slips of the engraving
tool, and that Wright identified the who'll
ticket as that printed by him on the night o
November 2lst, or seventeen days after tn
election. At this time the original ballot
were in the custody of County Clerk Ryan
1t has already been reported that Wrigh

JUSTICE S COURT.

The jury failed to agree in the matter Of
j. NJ. Roberts against the city before Justice
Hobbs. The case will be taken up again on
Saturday.
The case Of the state against b. +. Dore-
mus came up before Justice Thomas yester-
dsy. This was an action brought by the
state charging defendant with threatening to
wallup S. ID. Light, and asking that he be
placed under bonds to keep the peace to-
wards the complainant.
The witnesses for the state were Mr.. and
Mrs. Light, Mrs. Miller and her little boy.
Their evidence was very conflicting. 1t was
apparent that they had fixed up very nice
story which they ratified off without any
bother es long as they were allowed to have
their own way about il, but when cross ex-
amined they got badly mixed up. Mr..
Light first swore one thing
and then swore that he did
not swear that at all The ease with which
the women tripped the refined expressions
Cd ID sons of BIS over their
tongues, As well as the of-handed way they
told about kicking n certain part of the
body-not the head-plainly indicated that
they were refined and highly cultivated la
dies.
While Mrs. Miller's little boy was on the
stand be was allowed to face his mother who
was outside the fence which divides the
room. She nodded and shook her head al
the boy, as occasion required, to let him
know when she wanted him TO answer in the
affirmative or the negative. To the surprise
of several present the court saw his way
clear to place the defendant under 500
bond. 1t did seem to some present that any
one accustomed to weighing evidence coulc
not very well attach much weight TO thai
produced by the state.

Toledo Topics.

TOLEDO, O., Dec. 3.-The Toledo produce
exchange to-day adopted an address to the
railway managers of the country setting
forth the fact that at the much higher valua-
ton Of western production the past few
years, transportation rates were based upon
the principle of what the traffic would bear.
The principle is declared to be fair one
and sanctioned by participation in general
prosperity, but the railroads have
now SO changed, it is believed. the
value of western products and rail-
rates as TO demand revision and readjust-
ment. Even under a water rate from lake
ports to the seaboards of 81 cents per BUSH
ell. The Kansas farmer has realized only 30
to AZ cents per bushel for his wheat. The
corn crop is the great commodity that fur
nishes transportation and we are now at the
beginning of the movement. At present
prices the result 10 the farmer is SO exceed
ingly small that the very lowest possible
rate will be required to give steady watel
business and prevent wholesale feeding Of
the crop instead of giving the grain.
