The New York World recently

There are bt present in the SER

not sufficient to call for regular

The dreadful rumor comes from

their pockets, and no amount OF
treasury devices can inveigle them
into the habit. The world has

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Feb. 12.-The long
and bitter rate war between the southern and
southeastern lines is at an end, and peace
has been proclaimed. The result was brought
about by the meeting of the southern railway
and steamship association which has been in
session here for two days. The trouble which
caused the war was discrimination in favor
of Memphis, that city having rate on grain
and -four from the West of five cents lower
than Cincinnati and Louisville, thus divert
ing freights from these cities. The war was
opened by the Queen and Crescent people
from Cincinnati last October and the leading
southern trunk lines met the cut until the
rates had been reduced almost so per cent
There was much trouble in restoring the
demoralized rates, this being the fourth meet
ing for that purpose The roads have done
an enormous freight business, and have lost
great deal of money. The new rates go in
to effect on the 18th inst.

GA failure on the part of the management to

slider the dynamite resolutions offered in the

the use of dynamite in the destruction of

would be going beyond the dignity of the
House to have a search made for evidence
which would convict American citizens of
having connection with a crime in the alb
sence of charges duplicating them. There
appears to be good reason for the belief that
the matter will now drop. The report, it is

CHICAGO, Feb. 12.-There was rather re-

THE REEVES CASE IN COURT.
A Mother Suing for Her Child
That Was Kidnapped From New

A Mother Suing for Her Child
That Was Kidnapped From New
Haven.
CHICAGO, Feb. IA sensational habeas
corpus case is engaging attention in the Cir
cult court here. The petition is by Mrs. A.
E. Reeves, of New Haven, Conn, who seeks
to obtain possession of her six-year-old
daughter Mary, alleged to have been kid
mapped by the child's father, Rollin J.
Reeves. The parties were married in 1877 at
New Haven, and it is said the husband is
worth 800, 900, and has income of about
81, 900 year, though Mrs. Reeves says he
never gave her over $40 month for her sup
port. The abduction, Mrs. Reeves claims, is
an act of revenge on the part of the husband,
for her refusal to induce her father to 90 in
to partnership with him. The story of the
affidavit is as follows:
Mr.. Reeves was compelled to separate from
her husband in August last, since which
time she has made her home with her father,
DR.. E. J. Toof, at New Haven, Conn. On
August 25 Reeves abducted the child, and
kept her concealed in Portland, Me-, where
the mother found her. Mrs. Reeves
was thrown into Jail by her
husband, she having meanwhile regained
possession of the little one, but after days
Imprisonment she was released by an order
from the Supreme court. She returned with
the child to her fathers house. On October
80, Reeves, with DR.. Stewart, of Des
Moines, Ia and four other men, forcibly en-
tered the house, and after beating the entire
family, again abducted the child, and
| although the weather was very cold
| the party drove the entire night, intending
evidently to cross the State line into New
York. The child had been taken without
| additional clothing and was insensible from
exposure when the party arrived at the
house of A. G. Macarthur in Newtown, Conn.
Mrs. Reeves adds that she has received
threatening letters from her husband. On
| January 81 she went to Des Moines to meet
him, but he failed to keep the appointment
She returned to Chicago February 2, and five
days later heard that Reeves had the child
| concealed at 629 West Adams street. Mrs
| Reeves alleges that her health has been bro
ken down by his persecution of her, and that
! she and her father have spent several thou
sand dollars searching for the child
Judge Moran has issued a writ ordering
the little daughter to be produced in court.

A Gang of Men Overcome by Poison
Gas.


CHICAGO, Feb. 12.-At o'clock this after
noon gang of men working in the city
sewer near the manhole at the corner of Ken
zie and Union streets were overcome by the
foul air and gas and before assistance could
be rendered five were suffocated. The men
had been working in the sewer scraping and
cleaning it all day and had experienced no
unusual quantity of gas until the hour named,
when a sudden rush of the poisonous air
came upon them and they fell unconscious
except one man, who managed to reach the
manhole and cry for help. Immediately lad
ders were dropped and the unfortunate Ia
borers removed as quickly as possible. Those
not dead recovered soon after reaching the
surface. The dead are Mike Laskey, Joseph
Gill, John Grady, Daniel Curtis and Matthew
Mason, all men of over forty years and with
families depending upon them. The sur
vivors state that before they could run fif-
teen yards to the manhole they were over
come by an extreme dizziness and fell. Had
it not been for the presence of the two men
on the street who heard the cry for help none
of them would have been rescued and as it
