Cost OF Right of Way.

An engineer who knows thing or two
about the bills that the Baltimore Il Ohio
has been thus far compelled to foot in Sc
curing its right of way into Philadelphia on
Saturday yentured an opinion as to the to-
tai cost of the construction of the road. He
estimates the cost of the line from CObb's
creek to Poplar street, exclusive of the right
of way, at 5000. O5O. The cost of the
freight branch of the line across the meek"
from the SchUylBill river bridge northward
along the Delaware, from sources equally
as reliable, is placed at 500, 100, while the
construction of passenger and freight de-
pots, including the main depot, is placed at
S547, 900. Experts say that the right of
way will not exceed $4,000, 900. a sum-
ming up of Engineer Douglass figures gives
the total cost of the road through the city

ROYAL WEDDlNU.AKE.

The big cake prepared for the wedding
Of Princess BEATRICE is said TO be an as
tonishing piece of confectionery. 1t is
combination of three cakes, one above the
other. and has terraces like a castle. 1t is
surrounded with flags of many kinds
emblematic of love, purity and other things,
and the central decorations are shields
bearing the coat of arms of the bride and
bridegroom. The stand upon which it rests
is made entirely of gold. The cake weighs
four hundred pounds and is to be cut up
and slices sent to all the members of royal
families throughout Europe to dream upon
or to put away as mementoes. BEATRICE
is the last of the queens daughters TO be
married. And, although the coming BRIDE
groom, Prince HENRY of Battenberg, is
not popular with the English people, be-
cause, probably, they are tired of providing
for foreign and penniless adventures from
the British purse, still the queen, who is
attached to her daughter, is determined to
make the wedding a success. And as an
evidence of that determination she has had
the biggest cake the world ever saw baked
for the occasion.

CHOLERA IN SPAIN.

The appalling proportion of deaths to the
number of patients stricken with the chOl-
era plague in Spain shows two
things, one that the disease is of
the most virulent Asiatic type and
the other the utter lack of sanitation
in that Experimentation section of the
footstOol. Cholera is messenger of death.
whatever the conditions of a community it
marks for its terrible visitation, but its force
and effects may be very materially modified
by proper regard for cleanliness. Although
a distinguished authority declares that st.
Paul is in no danger of visitation should
cholera come to this country, vet nothing
should be left undone i'm the direction of
barring its progress by applying all of the
preventives possible in the way of thor
ough sanitation. 1t will have the effect of
preventing or at least modifying the effects
of other diseases which are liable to battle
medical skill. 1t is gratifying TO the GLOBE
that so much is being done. but it would
urge that nothing be left undone in the way
of enforcing sanitary rules and regulations
and whatever individual effort may be able
TO accomplish.

AUSTRTA,S RTGOTRv

The rejection of KELLEY by the Italian and
Austrian courts is very small piece of
business. In the first instance he was re-
jected because he was a Catholic and, as
free-spoken Irishmen usually do, expressed
his mind little freely about the bad treat
mentVICToR EMANUEL once bestowed upon
the pope. In the other instance he is re-
jected because his wife is a JeweSs. The
grounds for his rejection in both cases sound
very strange in this age of civilization and
religious tolerance. 1t shows that the fires
of religious bigotry burn as brightly now in
some sections of the world as they did in
the neighborhood of those sections two cen
turtles ago. Under international law and
international etiquette the king of Italy and
the emperor of Austria have the right to
object to the reception OF any individual as
an ambassador on the grounds that the
person is obnoxious to the sovereign.
This has been the international usage for
generations Notable presidents are found
in the example Of RIcHELIEU. who told the
English ambassador at Paris that the Duke
of Buckingham would not be received as
ambassador extraordinary, and in the case of
FRANCIS /. of France, who refused to re-
ceive Cardinal POLE, the popes legate, on
the ground that he was an enemy of his
friend HENRY WILL Coming down to our
own history we find that CHARLES c.
PINcKNEY was refused admission to the
French Republican court in the days of
JOHN ADAMS, and was even ordered to
get out of France. Our own government had
demanded the recall of GENET, the French
minister, shortly before this, because he had
criticised the president and tried to run the
United States in the interest of France. So
il is, the United States has no

CHICAGO. July 1.-Suit for $3.50, 900 has
been entered i'll the superior court against
the board of trade firm of John 1. Lester 81
Co. by Samuel Berkswitz, under the pro-
visions OF the gambling law. Berkswitza
declaration states that Edwin Partridge, be-
tween Jan. l, 1881, and Feb. 8, 1884, LOST
to the defendants $3.50, 600 by making beta
and wagers upon grain and stoeks-thereby
gambling transactions under the statute.

The policy of applying the lash to the
back of the wife-beaters, which has had
such SPLENDID send off in Maryland, seems
TO have stimulated the country to other
valuable reforms. News now comes from
several of the Eastern cities that the horse
whip is being used effectively in squelching
Street-mashers. A case has just occurred
in Washington where one of these sneaks
followed a lady from store to store until
she complained to her husband and the
masher was SOundly cOwhided. A con-
temptible puppy of the same class. who
annoyed young actress in New York by
imposing his attentions upon her when
they were not wanted, received a public
horse-whipping from the lady manager of
the theater. In Baltimore the ladies have
organized to rid the city of the nuisance of
street-nashers and adopted the plan of
sending to the newspapers the names of
these contemplate creatures, and the news

these lady insulters arTaigned before the

Control of the Fargo southern.
Special to the Globe.


ORToNvLLE. Mimi, July III. f.
Sargent, president of the Fargo South
ern, in an interview to-day said that his
road would be operated by the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul from date, the Fargo
Southern retaining the same board of
directors. Regarding the extension of the
Fargo Southern to Flandreau, he said that
the directors had it under consideration, but
nothing definite had been determined upon.
An agreement has existed for two or three
years which prevented the Milwaukee &
ST. Paul from invading Northern Pacific
and Manitoba territory. This contract is
now virtually broken by the former COM
pany in taking the Fargo Southern road. A
possible result of this will be that the Mani
tOba and Northern Pacific roads will boycott
the Milwaukee IL st. Paul at st. Paul on
through business to the East by giving it to
other lines.

which party has the burden of proof, so directs
the order of trial as to deprive the party hav-
ing the affirmative of the issue of the privi-

PENDANT agreed to transfer and the plaintiffs
to accept in payment for the lumber. Moth
ing was said about defendants ''indorsing''

Held-That this neither included nor i'm

assignment or transfer that would convey
good title would fulfil the contract on the
part of the defendants; also that evidence
was inadmissible to prove general custom
in case of the transfer or sale of negotiable
paper, to Endorse although not expressed

of the parties meet upon the terms of their
agreement there is building contract, al

The Local Passenger Situation.

From time to time the ticket agents of
eaSt-bOund roads from St. Paul and Mime
apolis accuse each other of making cuts in
passenger rates. Of course there is no
agreement binding them to maintain rates.
though it is policy when they can sell a
ticket at tariff to do so. But sooner than
see one purchase by another line than his
own the agent will allow discount as an
iIducement. Many occasions have been
presented, which were sufficient reason for
certain lines to inaugurate rate war, but
the small amount of travel going would not
warrant them in selling below present
prices. 1t appears to be the will OF the
Omaha and Milwaukee IL st. Paul roads to
take all the business possible from the Min
neapOlis u st. Louis, though the latter COM
pany claims to be doing paying business
from st. Paul, despite the loss it suffered by
the exclusion of its trains from st. Paul.
The result of the action brought against
it Tuesday by the Milwaukee Il st. Paul
and Omaha roads for Unfortunately using
Its commercial tickets in violation of the
agreement that was entered into when the
Minneapolis Il st. Louis was given permits
sion to sell these tickets was not expected.
1t was believed that as result the two lines
making the complaint would put on for
sale the commercial ticket at the same rate,
which would result seriously to the finances
of the Albert Lea derived from the sale of
these tickets. 1t is preSumable that the
Albert Lea would have instituted other
means to induce travel over its line to Chi
cago had its two competitors adopted the
form of ticket it sells. That the Milwaukee
Il St. Paul and Omaha lines agreed not to
sell commercial tickets and allowed the
Minneapolis Il st. Louis to continue its
sale, goes to show that the lines are afraid
of doing anything that would provoke a
rate war, which at this time of year, when
business is SO depressing, would be disas-
