quietly did it work. Then there was no Jolting

Heavy Shipment of Steel Rails.

The Pittsburg Dispatch makes mention of the
commencement of one of the largest shipments
of steel rails ever sent West from that part of
the country. 1t was consigned to the St Paul.
Minneapolis & Manitoba Railroad Company, and
the advance train consisted of sixteen cars, each
carrying twenty tons, or 10000 pounds of rails
in all 800 tons, or 100000 pounds. They were
billed from the Cambria steel works, at Johns
town. and went northwestward by way of the
Pittsburg, Fort Wayne & Chicago road and
other Pennsylvania Company leased lines.
The contract calls for $4,000 600
rails. great portion of the order has been
worked up and for some weeks these shipments
will pass through Pittsburg en- route westward.
1t will take $50 cars and over fifty engines and
trains to haul these rails to their destination.
This Manitoba extension of the st. Paul 81
Minneapolis road is of the most extensive
railroad enterprises in course of construction.
All summer and during part of the late spring
large forces of men have been grading, cutting
and preparing the road bed for these rails. AS
soon they arrive the work of construction will
be commenced and it is expected to get the new
line completed before the cold weather sets in
up in that country of long winters and late falls
for summers

ANOTHER ATTEMPT AT BRIBERY.
The Sensational Statement of Juror in
the Red lIeyl Case

When the argument came on in the Red Heyl
case it was expected that everything of q lively
interest had been exhausted. The prominence
OF the trial was acquired from the prisoners
notoriety in the first instance, but when two of
his attorneys, one the chairman of the Ohio
Democratic State central committee, and the
other Cincinnati alderman, were arrested on
the charge Of tampering with the prosecuting
witness. popular attention to the case remarka-
bly, increased. For eight days the courtroom
has been crowded with eager listeners to every
word of testimony, the vital and most interest
ing points of which were told the first two days.
But the legal sparring, and expectation that
something exhilarating was likely to occur at
any moment, kept the audience to their seats.
Red Heyl has had considerable experience with
law, but his indianapolis venture is the one very
engaging chapter in it.
Mr.. Kary concluded his argument for the
defense and was followed on the same line
by Mr.. Bailey and Major Gordon. When the
latter closed his speech, few minutes before 5
o'clock. the court adj burned until to-day, to
hear Prosecutor Harding, who will speak about
two hours and then will come the strain of wait
ing for the verdict. if the appearance of John
Shea in the case does not interfere.
Mr. Shea Che objects very strongly to be
known in print by his popular ncknaue) came
into the case in this way. Yesterday morning
one Of the jurors, George Vancleave. reported to
Judge Clark that about 10 o'clock the night be-
fore ne was aroused and called to the door by
John Shea, who said: 'Vanceave, you are poor
man, and I can give you chance Of making
$500
How is thatp
''You a juror in the Heyl case and if you
will vote for acquittal will give you 5000"
Il will have nothing to say to you;' on which
Mr.. NancIeave said he shut the door and went
to bed.
During the morning an affidavit was made
before Squire Feibleman charging Shea with
this ofense, and upon the warrant issued he
was arrested and locked up at the station-house.
Shea says he knows nothing at all of the mat
ter, that he was not at Vancleave's house, and
knows nothing Of but one man of that name
with whom he worked some years ago, at the
streetcar stables Il have had trouble" said
he, "but since | have been out of prison have
tried to live square life
What you doing now John"
Il work at Kingans pork house, but through
this arrest have no doubt lost my job
Did you ever know HeylW
mo; nor have / been tho court house
during the trial. know nothing at all about
the matter"
When Shea is brought before the mayor it is
probable that his case will be continued until
Monday.

Making Some Headway at Least.

The opinion prevails in railroad circles that
there will be good results from the restoration of
rates proposed to take effect Monday. Said rail
road man. people just begin to understand the
earnest efforts the railroads are making to re-
store rates to paying basis. 'They may not
succeed, he continued ''but they have already
stopped active hostilites, and that is of itself
great gain. When two men are fighting, if they
stop hitting each other, that is a long step toward
peace. The cause Of their quarrel may remain,
but there is a much better chance of settling it.
Now, as | understand it, the cause of the rail
road differences has already been removed; that
is to say, the scanty traffic they have been com
peting for has largely increased within few
months, that they are carrying more
freights than they did last year this time have
been assured by the highest authority that the
Pennsylvania railroad is handling fully per
cent more tonnage this season than last, and
see by the tonnage accounts of some of the
Western roads that they are doing more
than that. The bank clearings tell the same
story, showing that the bulk Of goods and
merchandise distributed through the country is
larger thar last year, though the decline in
prices makes a smaller showing in money"

Reduction IN the Price Of Gas!
Notice to Gas Consumers
and Others.

Your attention is called to the marked reduction In
the price of gas, which took effect the LIST day of
March. The company is furnishing gas to all
consumers at 81 80 per 1000 cubic feet This price
is certainly within the reach of ALL for both lighting
and cooking purposes The convenience and comfort
of cooking by gas, especially during the summer
months where a fire is not otherwise required, can
only be thoroughly appreciated by those who have had
experience in its useful application for that purpose
The company has sold for in this city during the
last four years large number of gas stoves and is
satisfied from the many testimonials from its patrons
that these stoves 'fll a longfelt want"

Mr.. Frank Lincoln gave humorouI enter
tainment last night at Pfaflns Music Hall, of
genuine merit. He was supported by Mr.. Will
b. Stone, pianist formerly of this city, but now
of New York, and Mrs Leon Bailey, of this
city, both of whom were received with favor.
Mr.. Lincoln is thoroughly original in his humor,
avoiding all the hackneyed forms and manners
of stage entertainments. His musical and imi
tative sketches are exceedingly funny,
especially 'Levy Wrestling with the
Cornet," "The Silent Singer IA
The impersonaJon of Mr.. Irving and Miss Terry
participants in the Cock Robin episode was
very laughable feature, while the imitation
sketch of Partisan comedian on the stage
received with rounds of applause. The audi
present was not sufficiently large to do
justice to the talented young artist, whose
sketches are peculiarly refreshing, unique, and
interesting throughout. A matinee will be
given this afternoon at 3 o'clock.
