neighbors are very r0arry over the
fact that his house is divided against

the Judge has decided advantage
over his rebellious household. He
can vote for Clevelands but they can
not vote for Blaine.s Eugenia is

EX-SENATOR BARNuM, chairman OF
the democratic national committee,
said the republican claims as to New
Jersey were ridiculous. New Jersey
had voted for democratic presidential
candidates for twenty years. and, so
far as the tariff was concerned, the
republicans got up much bigger
score on it in 1880 than they have
been able TO do this time.

in tragic sort of way, placed his hand on
his frayed lapel and replied in the deep

left her to bear the racket alone. In Berlin

the case put off until to-day, which was
granted.
John Simons worked at brickyard and
one day last week he cabbaged valise from
another German, the case being badly ratified
| from the fact that neither of them talk much

with larceny. The complaining witness said
that he had tracked the thief, and that the
footprints fit the boots of Simons. The case
was continued until to-day.
Fl. A. Johnson was charged with not
cleaning his vault. When arraigned, the
poor fellow said that he was willing to clean

PGmps Afdirs.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct 6.-When Alex
ander Mitchell, president of the Chicago,
Milwaukee 81 st. Paul Railway company, was
in New York, Mr.. Roswell P. Miller, acting
general manager of the company, stated that
nothing could be said as to the disposition to
be made of the funds to be obtained from
the new terminal facilities bonds' till Mr..
Mitchell's return. This afternoon Mr..
Mitchell said: $50 far as the exact location
of new buildings, etc, is concerned, it can
not be said that final decision has been
reached. OF course we must have a new
depot here in Milwaukee. Several locations
are in view. We think we know about where
it can be put, but are not prepared to say
deinitly just yet.

pot in Chicago, but there is nothing ready to
De printed on the subject at all YETI
'There was great deal said about my
resignation during my absence, and it
caused me some little trouble. Even from
London inquiries came in regard to the
matter, and l was obliged to send several
cablegrams denying the story. There was
really not bit of truth in it. The story
must have originated from the fact that l
thought ought to be relieved. l have been
in the Office twenty years. l began to think
it was about time to withdraw and take
rest. Of course must withdraw some time,
but on that subject don't care to have any
thing further said now.
manager Merrill doesn't seem to be gain
ing any, though L don't think he is any
worse. Everybody seems to feel sorry for
him, and well they may. If he could only
have been allowed to hold up till we could
have completed our plans about new depot
here we might have both retired with good
grace and felt that things were in good
shape.
'Mr. Miller, in his position as acting gem
eral manager, is doing exceedingly we'll I
have great confidence in him. He is one of
the coming men in the railroad affairs of this
