General Manager Tucker of the Maine Cen
trail has issued an order saying that all train

are left at any time. shall exercise strict sur
veillance over them, aud if they are lost these
men will be held personally responsible.
That the 100000 sinking fund loan of the

Making Railway Travel Safe.
An apparatus has just been invented which
is simply astonishing, for with it the traveller
need DO longer fear any accidents Safety will
be assured on railroads. This apparatus per-
mits the employe charged with the duty to see
in mirror the entire section of the road he is
TO CONTROL with all the trains in motion, and
he knows at every instant just exactly where
each trsia is. When one OF them approaches
another at distance which is dangerous he
can Immediately signal the menaced train.
The apparatus consists of a sheet of Opaque
glass, which the rails are indicated by hor-
izontal lines ard The stations by vertical ones,
numbered. Little arrows, representing the
trains, move along the horizontal lines. They
ara put IN motion by aid of electricity, devel-
oped by the contact of metallic brushes attach
ed to the locomotives with zinc bands placed
along the rails. The train thus continually

NOTES
1t is stated, on authority which claims re-
liability, that the Michigan Central, Lake
Shore and Pennsylvania have formed an al
lance against the Grand Trunk, Chicago &
Atlantic and other lines now selling tickets
from Chicago to New York at $12. The first
result OF this alliance will be at the lowest
rates ever made ont of Chicago will be an
nounced within one week, probably next
Thursday. The details of a most aggressive
campaign are now being worked ont Penn
sylVania and Michigan Central favored reduc-
ing rates at once TO the lowest point, Presi-
dent Newell of Lake Shore advised more
conservative policy, bat was ovtrruled and the
ball will open early next week. This affects
passenger business only, but the managers
have the same idea regarding freight, and 1t is
probable that it will also be ruled. The east
bound freight situation is rather more compli-

of affairs in connection with eastbound freight
rates is al owed to continue much longer, there

New York, with the probable exception of the
Pennsylvania, that will be alive to pay the

War Against a Pastor.
Ispecisl TeIerram % the GIohe. |


PITTsBURG. Jan. 25.-The Episcopal con-
gregation at Sewickley, twelve miles distant,
inhabitAted principally By wealthy merchants
and manufacturers, doing business in this
and Allegheny city, is engaged in an interest
ing war with its pastor, Rev. Burke. The
latter has penchaut for evolving eccentric
theological theories from the pulpit aud the
making Of mplimentary personal re-
marks, not only about the yestrymen and
members of the congregation, but also occa-
sionally in reference to other residents Of
Sewickley outside Of the church. AS Mr..
Burke can't be removed except by order Of
the bishop at the beginning OF the New Year,
the vestrymen determined to ask for his
resignation. Mr.. Burke was conveniently
absent ct the time and the vestry's
next move was 10 hold back
part OF his salary. A suit 10 re-
cover on the part OF Burke is now pending.
II was determined 70 freeze the pastor out II
possible, and with this object in view the or
gaulst and sexton we're discharged and the
gas company notified that the yestry would
not pay for any gas used 10 the church. As
n result the church was cold to-day, as there
was nobody 10 attend to the heating and the
place was closed. 1t remains to be seen If
Rev. Burke will keep up the fight or sue
cumb 10 the odds against him. BE VOWS be
will never surrender his position.

president of Harvard university, preached a
sermon at the Congregational church of this
city, to-day on "WOman and Scepticism,"
in the course Of which he spoke of the Woman
Suffrage convention, held here recently, and
expressed the opinion that when women are
given too much liberty they branch off into
scepticism and immortality. He said, among
other things, that the lives Of such women as
George Elliot, Madame Roland and Harriet
Martiuson exemplificd the truth OF this asser-
ton, and he referred 10 Victoria Woodruff as
representative woman OF the suffrage move
ment. Among his audience were Miss Susan
3. Anthony and Mrs. Elizabeth Cady
Stanton. and on the conclusion Of the service
they walked to the platform and upbraided
DR.. Patten for his utterances. Miss An

Clarkson's Reply to Legate.

DEs MONIES, Ia, Jan. 25.-Iu reply to
Legate's statement. sent in these dispatches
last night, Mr. J. S. Clarkson says: "This
is a contradiction of the two statements that
Legate has made to the St. Louis Republican,
and is nearer the truth. 1t denies his own
and st. Johns statements that they had had
no conference on the matter 1t confesses
virtually collusion, and the amount st. John
asked. 1t shows st. John was willing to be
hired to leave Ohio and hired not TO go to
New York. Legate never said 4 word to me
about mohey being sent 10 the Republican
committee in Kansas, nor do ] believe be
did to any one else, for never have heard
of il until now. I do not know
who he means by his friend in
Ohio, unless it was Senator
Plumb as 1t was the latter who gave him
letter of introduction to me. 1t will be seen
the letter contradicts st. John in
nearly every instance, especially in St.
Johns denials-that be had had no confer
ence with Legate: that he had had NO sore
threat; that he did not change any of his
appoiutme ents in Ohio; he never thought of
leaving OHIO or Of not going to New York,
and that'he never thought or such thing as
changing his course To suit or serve the ke-
publicans. Indeed, the letter OF Legate is
virtual confession of the truth Of the state
ments have made, except that he sup
presses the facts as to his receiving the letter
from St.John that ne read to me and kerens,
and that he seeks TO make it appear the
money was to go to Kansas Republicans,
and that the national Republican committee
had consented to send S25, 900 TO that GER
tain state when It had not nearly enough
money to use in doubtful states. 1t shows
Legate was acting in coilusion with
ST. John, that he did get him out OF
Ohio, and indeed it proves practically all that
mas been charged and that st. john under
stood it all. The only material difference
made by Legate is In his strained and insin-
cere statement that money Was being sought
for the party's benefit in Kansas Instead OF
St. Johns personal benefit. The Kansas
Republicans would have been the last TO ask
or accept the money that the national com
mittee needed so much in doubtful states. In
another week hope and believe Lcgate will
take another long step forward and tell the
rest Of the facts, and give to the public the
letters of ST. John and confirIn It all. II VIII
be seen he no longer contends his printed
letters are forgeries but admits them and
tries to explain them. The letter he wrote
me after returuiDgto Kansas was not marked
confidential, as he says, and did not allow
IL TO be printed until after was compelled 10
10 il by statements that he made In inter
views with the st. Louis ReDuJlcns."

LONDON, Jan. 25.-The great anxiety IN
regard to Gen. Stewart and his army. from

Abou Klea wells, overshadows even interest
in the explosion. Officials of the war Office

rumors were in circulation, however, TO the
effect that Stewards entire force had been
killed. Numerous officers of the govern
ment and others called at the war office dur
ing the day to learn if there was any news.
Another report says: The war Office has
seldom been so thronged on Sunday as it
was to-day. There were over 1000 callers,
including peers, members of the commons
and OF the cabinet, and officers OF the army.
Many of the latter, who has been on leaves
of absence, had travelled hundreds o. miles
on hearing of the London explosions aud
the critical condition Of affairs in the Soudau,
10 asl4f for active service. All were inquiring
eagerly for news regarding Stewards situa-
ton, but the officials had no news to give.

A Brace of Failures.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 25.-Judgments to
the amount Of $4,000 have been entered up
against Stuart Bros blank book manufac-
turers, at Fourth and Arch streets, and an
execution has been issued thereon. The
liabilities amount to not less than s45, 900,
with the assets unknown, but not enough TO
pay 80 per cent on the dollar. They attribute
their failure to stagnation in tue book trade.
The creditors are principally among the
paper trade.

day confessed judgment for s22, ,636 in favor
Of Il. g. Mckinney, as trustee for creditors
holding claims for that amount.
