Freight rates from Chicago to
Fierre now is Is cents per hundred,
unclassifed. It's culi0as idea, and.
very unjust one, that freight should
be carried from Chicago to Pierre,
through Waseca, cheaper than it is
laid down here. It is such unjust acts
that make the people feel like twist
ing the Decks Of railroads. Radical.

Minneapolis was overrun with
pickpockets last week, and many are
the unlucky victims that were adroit-
ly relieved of their personal effects.
Among those reported to police head
quarters as sustaining loss was Capt.
L. Aldrich. of Murray county, who was
relieved of IS in money, a 81 note and
his return railroad ticket. An old.
soldier from the vicinity of Sleepy
Eye also suffered loss.
Levi Davis, the Vermont churn
man, struck the town last Saturday
morning and at once set up in busi-
ness in front Of the postofice, and his
estate rights, county rights could be
heard until late in the evening. $65
is the sum he expects to realize from
the sale of the county right for Brown
county. According to the Times,
Davis staid at Madelia all winter and
was helped to about $58 by the kind
hearted citizens to go, it was suppos-
ed, to his friends. He did not go far,
however, as he has been playing the
deadbeat in our neighboring towns
ever since warm weather set in. He
is at present domiciled at Huebner's
hotel.

They realize the advantages to hc gained
By the ratification OF such Il treaty as has
been concluded by the representatives OF
the United States and Nicaragua, and they
want the credit which such ratification
would give the Republican party. While
the Spanish and Mexican reciprocity trca.
ties are steadily growing in disfavor the
| Nicaraguan project is constantly gaining
supporters. Public sentiment is in favor
Of the ratification OF this treaty. II also
gains popular support from the fact that
the British and French Governments arc
hostile to it. The vote in the Senate on
ratification will be close, and it may be
that tho treaty will eventually be ratified
but there is not the slightest prospect tina,
the House will vote the loan provided to
be made to Nicaragua, much less appro
pirate considerable sum to begin the con
struc,ion OF the canal. The programme
that finds most favor with leading Demo
cratic Senators and Representatives is ,e
do nothing whatever on the subject at this
session, but to wait until Cleveland is in
augarated and Cabinet is appointed, and
message can be received from him sug
gesting some slight changes in the treaty
and then begin the work under purel,

The London Explosion.

Researches into the explosion of the
London bridge cause great sensation, as
the disclosures show the outrage to have
been planned with an amount of GOODNESS,
determination and foresight hitherto un-
credited to tcrrorists. Everything proves
that the participators in the plot must
have remained beneath the bridge quar-
ter OF an hour, despite the swiftncss of the
current. The work was prosecuted will,
immense difficulty, but in deep shadows to
, prevent detection. 1t is believed that Il
chemical fuse was used by the conspirators
! TO ignite the explosive, SO as to give them
| time to land and catch the tidal train for
Paris. The keeper Of a tavern, at which
three suspected men took refreshments, de-
scribcs the tallcst of the three as free, easy
and intelligent. lie paid the bill at the
tavern, but objected to taking drink on
board the boat. 1t is noteworthy that
the tide was just then lowest it had
been for the past few months, or will b.
until spring; also the hour was selected
when the tide was the lowest, proving tina,
the plot was carefully laid. 1t is proposct!
to use submarine electric light to enable
the diver to examine the extent OF the
damage to the bridge. Granville and
Gladstone have been provided with extra
guards since the explosion.
