luton was adopted by the stockholders
expressing their confidence in the present

journed. A special meeting of directors has
been called by the president to be held at
the branch Office of the company in Freeport,
March II, and the regular meeting OF the
board of directors for the purpose of electing
officers for the ensuing year will be held at
that place March "A. In conversation with
William O.. Wright, president of the COM
pany, it was learned that preliminary work.

the year would fad them with 200
miles of completed road. The
remainder of the line will be
pushed to completion as rapidly as possible.
Negotiations preceding contract are now
pending for the purchase of 10000 tons of
sixty-pound steel rails. He says the road

well-known horseman and keeper OF keno
rooms in this city, alleging that Ia 1875 he
paid money for the privilege of running
keno room here, and that his understanding
was the money was for the benefit of l.. Har-
rigan, chief of police of the city, and Mayor
Rainwater, who was then executive officer of
the board of police commissioners. To-day
Mayor Rainwater publishes an open
letter to Gov. Marmaduke, in which
he treats the matter in the most bitter
and scathiug terms. He deRounces
the affidavit as a most infamous lie and
believes that those who read it will agree with
him that the man who becomes party to
such an outrageous statement on such a
basis is triHe worse than the scouudrel who
originates the story, be that man gambler or
governor. Mayor Harrigan, who is again
chief of police, also pronounces the affidavit
a monstrous lie and states that written
acknowledgment that it is lie is in existence.

Rise Up. Lyman Trumbull.

SpeciaI 20 Tue GIobe.
New YORK, March 10.-The Sun gives a
column editorial to-day to the Illinois sena-
torial contest It discusses the fight in its
various details thus far, and quotes and dis
credits paragraph from the Boston Adver-
tlser, which says that Mr.. Morrison has asked
the president TO agree to make certain ap-
pointments in compensation for certain
votes which have been bargained for by him
The Sun says that the Democrats have stuck
to Morrison long enough, and that it is high
time to make an effort to elect new man of
such character, sbility and independence
that some Republicans may be willing to end
the struggle by voting for him. Lyman
TrunbuIl is that sort of man.

port has almost four years to serve
and the postmaster three years, and appli-
cants for places are few and by no means so
active as IN many other cases.
Letters are reaching Col. Villas in large
numbers Gfrom Caspirants in various parts
of the state, but he has been so pressed with
general work that he is unable
to give them any attention. The
course of the senate to-day in seating
Senator Blair, appointed by the governor OF
New Hampshire, is regarded as an indication
that a Republican senator from Illinois, if
appointed on the failure of the Legislature to
elect, he would be given q seat with little
opposition.
The Evening Star to-day says: "Hon. P.
Y. Deuster is being urged by friends as an
excellent representative of German Ameri-
cans for some diplomatic position. Mr..
Deuster is not personally seeking the ap-
pointment, but friends urge him because of

The Troops Called Out.

ST. LOUIS, March 10.- Gov. Marmadukt
has called the militia here to go to Sedalia,
Mo-, to aid in repressing trouble likely ia
arise there to-day out of the railroad strike.
In response to the call for troops of Gov

feared at Sedalia, where 1000 striking rail-
road employees of the great system are said
to menace property and public peace.
Some two hundred men employed in the
Missouri Pacific shops here held meeting
tonight to discuss the situation and consult
as to what is best for them to do under the
present circumstances. The meeting was
private and the result is unknown, except
that an executive committee was appointed
and final action deferred until tomorrow

Botkin's Bacon Probably Safe.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, March 1O.-There is talk in
political circles to-day that J. c. Ford of
Madison will be candidate for marshal of
Montana to succeed Botkin. Botkin's
friends say they believe Botkin win be per-
mitted to serve out his term, as
Villas is close friend of
Botkin aud will probably intercede
to prevent his removal. The fact that Hoar
who voted in favor of Botkiu's removal after
ward reversed his decision regarding his
case, and that Edmunds intimated in execu-
tive session that he suspected injustice had
been done him by the action of the commit
tee will be urged in his behalf, and there is
stroug belief that he may serve out his term,
which has over year to run yet.

A Gloomy Situation.

SEDALIA, Mo-, March 10.-No change in
matters pertaining to the strike to-day. Men
in great number are about the railroad office
defiant and positive in their position. Adjt.
Gen. Jameson is here in consultation with
the citizens and strikers. Not car of freight
has moved to-day and there is no likelihood
of any being moved. Business is almost
at standstill, and the outlook is gloomy. No
riotous demonstration, however, has been
made up to the present time. The strikers,
though determined, have manifested no dis
position whatever to destroy property, but
affairs are critical. The strikers are now in
session, drafting proclamation that they
will keep the peace at all hazards. They are
detectives have arrived who are
hired by the railroad. Adjt. Gen.
Jameson had conference with the strikers
and informed them that they must not pre-
vent the trains moving. The pay car arrived
this morning, but the strikers refused to re-
ceive the wages because they said it would
sever their connection with the road and be-
sides the car was not due for five days. The
rumer that the militia are coming aggravates
the situation.

SEDALIA, No., March 10.-The situation is
unchanged tonight. One freight train has

parted. The adjutant general of the state

Rea.ctio,, o.. Puciac Rus;,,es,

The doubt existing that the reduction of
freight rates from Chicago and st. Louis to
the Pacific coast, agreed upon by all the lines
in the Transcontinental pool3except the Cen
trail Pacific, is to be put into effect has been
removed. The new traffic will be printed
about the Goth. The rates from Chicago to
the Pacific coast will be 80 per cent of the
present through rate from New York; from
Missouri river points 20 per cent. st. Louis
rates will be 1900 per cent. of the new
Chicago basis less than the latter.
In connection with the above Commits
siener Fink of the Eastern trunk line pool
has issued the following: Taking effect i'm
mediately, all through rates from the Allan
tic seaboard to Pacific coast points are hereby
withdrawn. Traffic destined to those points
will hereafter be rated at the established
west-bound traffic rates to Chicago or Missis-
sippi river points, and governed by trunk
line classification.

England now recognizes her mistake

prestige. Russia will not surrender hairs

it being under the protection of the federal

souri, Pacific passenger trains are not inter-
fered with but no freights are permitted

resolved to havea reserve police force IN
readiness in case they should be needed.

protect the Wabash property, Though he does
not anticipate his interference will be necos-

violence, but are firm in the demand of re-
