The rumOr that Gen. Adna Anderson.

by officers of that company. While they
hold that such is probably the case, they
are not in position to say anything about
it. 1t is quite probable. however, that he

be no longer required. That the cOnstruc-
ton department will be put under the iuris-
diction of Assistant General Manager OdeIl,
chief of the operating department, is an
error-so Mr.. Odell claims.
Mr.. Anderson is one of the best known
and most thoroughly competent engineers
in the United States. and in his present
position commands salary of SIS. 900 a
year. He was born at Ridgeway. Orleans
county, \. Y, July -. 1927, and entered
railway service in 1St7 as chairman ON the
New York Il New Haven River road.
From that time he has occupied many inn
portant positions on railroads in different

ALBANY. y. y. Aug. 12.-ThoSe who
understand President Cleveland'S plans say
ae will be in no hurry to return TO Wash
lngton before the 1st of October, though he
NAV find it necessary to get back sooner.
He has purpOsely sought secluded, out
pf-the-way region in which to spend his
vacation. in order to escape the otfice-seek-
ing annoyance. the locality being distant
from railroads and accessible by only one
line of telegraph. His secretary has in
structiOns to send him none Of his mail
matter from Washington and not to COM
municate with him at all unless in the
event of an extraordinary emergency.
Ofiice-Seezers are to be entirely ignored for
the time being and will receive but little
attention between now and the meet
ing of congress in December. Adyices
from the AdirondackS this morning report
hat the president and his friend, DIR.
Ward. of Albany, have reached their des-
tinatlon in the North woods, and have COM
menced their season of rest and recreation,
which, if nothing happens to interfere
will continue for three or four weeks at
the shortest. The fact is, the president
greatly feels the need Of rest. lie has been
OverwOrked and worried during the past
five months to such a degree that he Is not
only tired out but much Disguised by the
hungry and importunate politicians. When
he left Albany Monday, he said he felt
that he had escaped an experience worse
than that Of a prisoner OF war and was
very glad for an opportunity to get rest
and little fun on his own account.

in the East has crystalized into belief sup
ported by numerous facts pointing to a con-
clusion that the Burlington X Northern and
Manitoba roads will work in harmony. and
that Mr.. ToLselin and his associates have
become heavily interested in the latter road.
While there may be no such thing as the
Manitoba passing into or under absolute
control of the Burlington, heavy stockhold-
ers in the latter have become large investors
in the former and to such an extent as TO
establish a community of interest. Mr..

COLUMBUS, o., Aug. 12.-There are a
number of the formerly reliable old Repub-
lican PrOhibitionistS in this city, who hold
indignation meetings now about every
evening and express themselves in bold
terms concerning the abuse which is being
heaped upon them by the breast-beaterS
and whipper-snappers, who have IN
dertaken the job of sending them
out of the party. They argue
the question from all reasonable
standpoints, and fail to see why they should
be made the objects of daily attack, simply
for the season that they have concluded that
the Republican party is no longer fit in
strument by which to accomplish prohibit
ton and reform. They are charged with
being in league with the Democratic party
to accomplish purpose, and in order to
silence them they are threatened with eX-
posture and a general ripping up of one
George w. Calderwood who formerly
worked the Pprohibitionists of this
section for small amount Of
glue on the ground that he was
able to accomplish something for the cause.
One of these double-action politicians, who
has concluded to go
STRAIGHT FOR PROHIBITION
this time and leave the Republican party to
take care of itself, remarked last evening on
the relations of the parties to each other:
1.-The Democratic party" he said, twas in
favor of license straight and opposed to pro-
hibition, according to their declarations,
and the Republican party was opposed to
license, in favor of taxation and
neither for nor against prohibition.
The latter is opposed to bath taxation and
license and consequently, if they were TO
accept the statement made in the letter of
Chairman Bushnell of the Republican COM
mittee, that they were neither for nor
against prohibition the natural course
would be in case they should not vote
their own ticket, to vote that of the Re
publican. but they find themselves being
abused unnecessarily by the Republican
press for no apparent reason fur
Their than the fact that the
prohibition Republicans are this time
going to vote the straight prohibition ticket.
All this howl about Democratic-prohibi-
ton alliance is being
WORKED INDUsTRIoUsLY
at the present time in the Republican press
on the theory that those of the prohibition
lists who aided by their votes TO keep the
G. o. p. in power will still go in that direc-
ton if they can be made to believe
that there is such an alliance.
There is not, however much lik-
lihOod that intelligent men will be
led to believe that there is any
alliance with party which is in favor of a
license andwhich has announced itself as
opposed to prohibition, while the Republi-
can chairman has not seen fit to admit so
much. But the whole affair resolves itself
into the fact that the Republicans are too
early in the field and the committee in Or
der to give satisfaction must make some
pretense of work and the Prohibitionists
are the only element in sight just now.
