THE STREET RAILWAY.
Conference Between the Committee and
MIR. Haiues Outlook Favorable.

Conference Between the Committee and
MIR. Haines The Outlook Favorable.
The committee appointed by the Board
of Aldermen at their meeting Monday
evening, met Mr. Charles y. Haines,
the street railway man, at the City hall
Thursday afternoon aud had IA protracted
conference over the subject of street
railroad in Burlington. We are pleas
ed to announce that they were very
favorably impressed by Mr.. Haines's
statement of his plans and there is no
question but that the committee will re-
port in favor of the construction of the
road, and the imposing of no conditions
and requirements except such as shall be
necessary to protect the ultimate interests
of the city
Mr.. Haines was seen by a representa-,
tive of the FREE PRESS, and he expressed
himself as very much pleased with the re
suit of his conference with the commit
tee and the prospect for the building Of
the road. In answer to Inquiries Mr..
Hanes stated that if the action of the
Board of Aldermen at their meeting next
Monday night should be favorable to the
construction of the road work would be be
gun upon it at once and he had little doubt
but that cars would be running on it in
six weeks from the inception of the work.
AS regards routes he could not speak
with any degree of certainty. Some par
ties advised going to Winoosk by
one route and some by another.
If they should decide after the meeting OF
the Board on Monday night, to build the
road their engineers would come here
Immediately and make preliminary sur
veys and the selection of the route would
depend upon which route was found the
most feasible. After the completion of
the line between this city and Wlnooskl,
Mr.. Haines said they might begin work at
once upon the line through South Union
street, but that would be decided by the
outlook as to whether it would pay OF
not.
They were now at work upon street
railway connecting Glens Falls, Sandy
Hill and Fort Edward, y. Y, which is
seven miles long. They expect tC
have that completed by the middle
of September and as soon a!
arrangements were completed they would
build a road between Rutland, Centre
Rutland and West Rutland. 1t would bt
a matter for local pride, he thought, i
Burlington could have the honor OF pos
sessing the first street railway in Yer
mont and if work was begun at once, tbi'
city would be very likely to win that dis
tinctiOn.
I'm conclusion Mr. Hanes said the com
mittee had manifested desire to NEE
them half way, and that was all they de
sized. The requirements discussed at thu
conference would be perfectly satisfactor.

would be built

Cold Hands and Feet.

LOWELL, Feb. 3, 1879.
MESSRs. C. I. Hoop & Co.: Gentlemen.
About one year ago my daughter commenced
taking your Sarsaparila. At that time she
had very little appetite; could take no long
walks, and her face was badly broken out
with humor. She was low-Sprited; troubled
with cold hands and feet; her blood seemed
to be poor, and she was in condition which
caused us great anxiety After taking one
bottle of your Sarsaparflla she began to i'm
prove; and she now has good appetite and
can take much longer walks Her humor is
nothing compared with what it was one year
ago. She is in better spirits, is not troubled
with cold hands and feet as previously And
! attribste this Improvement in her condi-
ton, largely to your Sarsaparilla She has
taken six bottles, and intends to continue its
use. was inclined to oppose the trial of it

The military authorities, General

a speedy termination of hostilities, as
there are dozen or more companies of
soldiers in pursuit of the hostiles. The
people of Arizona, Judging by the reso.
lutions of Boards of County Commission

this prediction, nor much confidence in
the military. In ella county the Com

at length the alarming condition of

unanimous in this opinion.

will sell the canal, but, as a matter OF
fact, investors will ultimately receive
dividends which will probably equal
those of the Suez canal; that the French

and that he will live to sail through the
canal himself.

Personal LIBERTY.

An interesting decision has just been
rendered by Governor Hill Of New
York in the case of one Thomas
Mitchell, who was charged in New
Jersey with manslaughter and indicted
by the grand jury. Mitchell was the
reputed owner of building in Jersey
City, the walls Of which, shortly after
a fire, fell, and killed four persons
Mitchell was at the time of the ac-
cident, and always had been, resident
of New York, and was not in the State
OF New Jersey when the walls fell.
he was indicted for manslaughter, not
withstanding, and requiston for his
surrender to the New Jersey authori
ties was made on the Governor of New
York. Governor Hill declined to sur
render Mitchell, and quotes from the
Federal Constitution and the decision
OF the Supreme Court of the United
States in the case of Louis Reggel in
support of his decision. The Constitu.
tion says in substance that if person
is charged with the commission of
crime in any State and fees from jus.
tice to another State, he shall be sur.
rendered on demand of the Governor of
the State from which he fed to be re.
moved to that State. An Act of Con.
gress regulating the extradition of fugi.
tives from justice provides that when.
ever the executive authority of any
State demands any person as fugitive
from justice and produces copy of an
indictment or affidavit charging the
person demanded with the crime, cert.
fed by the Governor of the State from
which the prisoner SO charged has fed,
it shall be the duty of the Executive of
the State in which the accused has
sought refuge to have him arrested and
delivered up. ~,.. .,.m
The questions arising under the Act
OF Congress. are: Must the alleged
criminal be an actual fugitive from JUS.
tice, and have in fact fled from the State
where the crime was committed? Or,
having never lived in the State to which
1t is sought to remove him for trial, is it
sufficient that he has constructively
fed? fR on
Governor Hill declares that he will
never lend his official sanction to the
doctrine which would permit a citizen
OF New York, who had never been out
of the State in his life, to be seized and
carried away to Oregon or any other
State, to be tried on an indictment
found against him in such State. This
seems to be in accord with justice and
the preservation of the liberty of the
citizen, and it is highly commended by
many New York papers.

The 80 hour gO-as-yOu-please walking
match between the well-knOwn pedes-

O'Clock at Turner's Hall, in the presence
OF a large number of spectators, despite
the very inclement weather. The nall
was staked of so as to form course for
the pedestrians around the room about
five feet in width and of a circuit of one
thirtieth of a mile, so that each pedes-
trian was required to make 80 laps on
every mile. At the south side
of the hall large black
board with a smaller board pierced with
thirty holes. was erected on raised
platform, before which Messrs. ). Ii. Mar
tin and J. W. Haywood sat and kept the
record of the laps by means of wooden
pegs inserted in the holes on tue smaller
hoard as the circuits were walked, the
number of the miles beng plainly shown
by figures on the larger board opposite the
pedestrians names.
