WashinGton City.
From the Springfield Republican.

From the Springfield Republican.
The Republican party may almost claim
the boast of the Roman emperor that it found
the capital city built of brick and leaves it OF
marble. 1t is at least true that it has changed
from squalid, pig-infested Southern slave
mart to q splendid city, whose public build
ings and private residences vie with those OF
European capitals and which is the capital
of nation of freemen only. 1t has vindi-
Gated the grand plan upon which Maj.
L'Enfant laid it out nearly a century ago.
The capitol itself is the finest capitoine
building of the world, and crowns height
from which radiate the great and beautiful
avenues, paved with asphalt and adorned
with statuary and elegant residences. At
the other end of Pennsylvania avenue is the
vast treasury department. with its sober and
i'm pressive olonnade, relic of the Greek
architecture, while on the other side OF the
White house is the new war, state and navy
department in more modern style, the
proudest monument of the regime OF the
much abused Mullett. 1t is one of the most
impressive of all the later additions to the
architecture of the city. Pennsylvania aven-
lie between these two centers OF interest has
filed up till it has ceased to appear OF an in
terminable length, being in fact only mile
long, west of the capitol, like the Inter den
Linden of Berlin, which it somewhat re-
sembes. It will be in the future built up
with finer class of buildings than at pres
ent Real estate instead of being depressed
over the change is rather eXhilarated.
Washington is likely to become more and
more favorite among American cities, not
rivaling the marts of commerce in their own
field, but distinguished by being the political
capital, center of literary research and life
and an open and Democratic exchange
among all the leading forces of the country.
All roads will lead to Rome, and the obscure
lawyer of some distant city, going up to set
tie a case before one of the departments
and getting out of town on the first train
after his business is done, may, in the daz-
cling romance of American history, next
find himself there received by hurrahing
multitudes, and acclaimed as the chief magis
trate of the great Republic. Washington has
probably never seen so great day as March
for magnitude of demonstration aud
general congratulation since the triumphal
entry of the great army of the Union twenty
years ago.

Railroad Corporation Defrau1ed Out of

Special to the Globe.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, March 1S.-James
Blackburn, once paymaster Of the Milwaukee,
Lake Shore & Western railroad, and until
recently manager of the business at Norris,
Wis, of the Lake Shore Traffic company,
an organization nearly identical with the
previously named railroad, is said to have
defrauded the traffic company of about $780,
600. The latter corporation was organized
for the purpose of making business for the
railroad, and Blackburn, who has discharged
his duties as paymaster with marked ability
was selected to manage its affairs. No sus-
picion of wrong was aroused until the end
Of the first year when report was furnished
by Blackburn which showed that traffic
company's sawmill and other ventures were
realizing small profits. This Blackburn at
tributed to depressed market and shrink
age, Business went on in this unsatls-
factory manner until Juhe 1854, when
the company shut down the works and insti-
tuted an Investigation, believing there was
crookedness on the part Of Blackburn. The
books of the concern were examined, but
with no result. Subsequently another and
closer investigation showed a deficiency of
over $4,000. Blackburn's connection with
the company had in the meantime been
severed, and he removed to a
point in Michigan where he opened supply
store. Whea presented with the proofs of
his guilt, Blackburn admitted he was in the
wrong and turned over all his property to
the company. He was arrested, but as he
had made all the reparation possible he will
probably not be prosecuted, although the
charges are hanging over him and he can be
apprehended at any time

Continued Success of the "Wages Of Sin"--A
New Domestic Drama Billed for
This Evening

3SCW OUllltSUlC DIllild Dlllcu lOI
This Evening.
The largest audience of the week assem-
bled at the Grand last night to witness the
highly entertaining melo-drama s'The Wages
of SIM" The performance was fully up to
the high artistic and finished standard
hitherto noted in this troupe, and it was
greatly appreciated and enjoyed.
''woMAN AGAINST WoMAN''
This evening the capable company will
present the interesting domestic drama,
''Woman Against Woman" It is strong,
well-written literary production, full of great
domestic interest, cleverly-drawn incidents
and striking situations. Two sisters form
the subject of the story. They leave
their village home and find employment
The youngest is led astray by man about
town. She gives birth to child, which is
put in the hands of strangers. The elder
sister swears to conceal the wrong and if
necessary take the blame upon herself. The
good girl returns home and marries an hon
est mechanic, while the wronged sister
enters upon gay life and finally marries
wealthy gentleman. When the elder sister
is married a former sweetheart of the me-
chanic appears upon the scene, and, in her
jealous rage, determines to have revenge.
She learns the young wife's secret and tells
the husband. He questions her, but she re-
mains silent. He takes to drink and neg
lects his family. Their baby dies and the
mother, in fit of desperation, breaks the
promise made to her sister. This settles
matters, relieves the husband of his dreadful
suspicious and all ends happily for the vic
tins of the villainy. While the subject may
be trife out of the way, the dialogue is
clean and the moral wholesome.
The sale of seats for the engagement of
the Hoop of Gold company opens at the

YELLOWSTONE PROSPECTS,
The Northern Pacific Soon to Inau0mrate a
Nelc National Park Service

Netc National Park Serrice.
Charles w. Hoffman, transportation con-
tractor for the tourist business of the Ma
tional park, and heavy coal and coke oper-
ator at Bozeman, is in the city perfecting ar
engagements for the coming season in the
park ana for increasing his coal
and coke plant. OF the former he
says rate will be announced in a
few days which will attract thousands to
Wonderland. Through tickets will be sold,
including Pullman and dining-car service on
the rail, and transportation, meals AND en-
tertainment generally while in the park.
Special terms will be made with individuals
or parties who desire to make trips off of the
regular roads or trails. Great improve
ments are under way in the way of provid-
ing accommodations for guests, and the
all-rail line to the park proposes to do the
business.
As to coal development at Bozeman, it goes
on. They have the coal, the only developed
and thoroughly tested coal on the line OF the
Northern Pacific in the belt range; have an
ample market, and production is only kept
at the minimum by the lack of transporta-
ton facilities Cars cannot be had as rap
idly as needed. This defect will be rene
died in time and the market be fully sup
piled. Fire brick is on the ground
and the cokiug plant will be enlarged as
soon as the product can be moved to the
market. These brick were burned at Sirris,
Oak, where there are large bodies of as good
clay as can be found anywhere. The coal
can be cooked and laid down for half the
price of the Pennsylvania product, at Butte,
Wickes and Anaconda.

how far his influence will go in regulating
things depends altogether upon the policy of
the administration. If the present plan is
followed out of adheringto civil service rules,
a personal recommendation will not be very
important in any quarter. II the
administration should finally decide to
make appointments on personal recon-
mendations, I should consider that MIR.
Kelly's recommendation would be very valu-
able to any one desiring office, although,
perhaps, not necessarily conclusive.
''As far as l am informed Mr.. Kelly has
not been recommending or asking appoint
ments for any one"
"Can you give US any hope OF
FASTER FAST MAIL
from Chicago?'
81 don't think the question of the fast
mail service has been brought to the atten-
ton of the postmaster general. l saw Frank
Hatton when was there, and told him was
glad he was going out on account of his mis-
cradle fast mail service to the Northwest He
explained the matter to me as he has to
the general public through the press
within day or two. AS Mr.. Villas is from
the Northwest. and as he must necessarily
know how glazing an injustice is done to the
business public by holding the fast mail
couple of hours for the Chicago morning
papers, l think he will adjust and change it.
l think a renewed action on this subject by
the chamber of commerce of st. Paul and
board of trade of Minneapolis will be advis-
abIe.''
