Northern Pacific was obliged to ship re-

CHICAGO, March 11.-People who were
passing Marshall, Field & Co.'s building on
Fifth avenue and Adams street, about
O'Clock this morning, saw novel and very
exciting spectacle Two men who were
apparently adjusting some of the tackle of
tue tall derrlcks which are used TO handle
tne huge foundation stones now being put
IN, were standing on little platform not
more than 6Xl0 feet in size, and nearly
seventy-fve feet above the ground. Sud
denly one of them dropped his rope. rushed
at the other, who was kneeling, struck him
with his fist and then began to kick him.
Finally the assailed party struggled to his
1eet, sieZed hammer and made savage blow
at the others head. Then things began TO
get exciting indeed. The man with the
hammer was evidently furious, and the
other very much alarmed. The latter
started to run, with his assailant and the
hammer after him. Round and round the
narrow platform they went, the pursuer
occasionally reaching for the pursued with
hammer but always missing him. at last
the pursued party turned, grasped the
other, and for time it seemed that one or
the other would be thrown over and dashed
10 pieces on the heavy stone piers below;
put third party, presumably foreman,
mad by this time climbed to the battle
ground and separated them. Neither was
badly hurt or scared. The one who had
been assaulted first showed a few bruises
on his face, the result of kicks, but tho
other was unhurt, and in a few minuto-
went on with his work as though nothing

Who Lynched ssrTinCo Jackp,,

EATONTowN, n. j., March 1.-THE in.
quest on the body of the negro, "Mingo
Jack" who was lynched for rape, was con-
tinued to-day, but no evidence was ELECTED
to fix the crime on any one. The rope was
seen IN the hands of several persons in a
saloon on the night of the lynching, but it
seemed to be passing from hand to hand as
a sort of curiosity and without any appar-
ent ownership. A knot was tied in it by a
man named Kelly, but no evidence was
elected to show that it was ''hangman's
knot" or that it was used to strangle
'Mingo jack" The examining attorney
also, it appeared, when there was danger
of eliciting pertinent facts was particular to
inform witnesses of their rights against
determination, with the result usually of
securing negative or nOn-commital answers.

AHorse of Another Color.

WASHINGTON. March lit is learned
to-day that in the synopsis Of Senator Vests
deposition takG privately last evening by
members of the house telephone investigat-
ing committee and furnished TO the AsSO-
ciated Press by one of its members. Senator
Vest was misquoted. He was reported as
having said "Mr. Garland represented to
me that in his opinion the Bell patent was
illegally obtained and that the Pan-Electric
might be worth some money" whereas the
stenographer's notes show Senator Vest 10
have said: Il then conversed with Senator
Garland. who stated TO me that he had ex-
amined the matter very thoroughly and that
he had no doubt the Pan-Electric patent
was perfectly valid one" Senator Vest
also said that Mr.. Casey Young told him
THAT the Bell patent had been procured
by fraud" The error was caused by the
member of the committee confusing the
authorship of the two statements.

A LOCAL VIEW.
The Manitoba, C. II. and ssSOOs' Com.
panies Will Consolidate

Certain things that have been transpiring
lately in Manitoba stocks gives evidence
that the above is substantially correct
Some months since it was stated on good
authority, both in Montreal and locally,
that J. j. Hill has disposed of the con-
trolling interest of Manitoba stocks, and
that they had passed into the hands of Sir
George Stephens, president of the Cana
dian Pacific road and director of the
Nfaitoba. No credence was given
to- the report by the general pub
lie, but certain railway officials
and stockholders were differently
impressed, and shortly after the rumor was
started the believers had good grounds to
base their hopes on. The Canadian Pa
citic and Manitoba companies at once made
a deal on traffic and at once ceased fighting
each other. The subject of building the
Sault Ste. Marie road to a connection with
the Canadian Pacific has been discussed and
agitated for the past twelve years, and that
steps have not been taken earlier to carry
forward this enterprise is due to the fact
that other pressing enterprises,

Rock Island ExtensIons.

Special TO the Globe
CHICAGO, March lit is stated that in
a short time the Rock Island management
will submit proposition to the citizens of
st. Joseph to this effect: If they will sub
scribe $500. 900 worth of stock the Rock
Island company will build two extensions
west from st. Joseph, one 10 run in a
northerly direction through the northern
tier Of counties into Nebraska, and
the other to run sOutheasterly down
through Kansas into Indian Territory.
The laSt-named route will cover the survey
formerly made for the proposed st. Joseph
& Rio Grande. Each of the extensions
will be eventually 500 miles in length.
and will be known as the Chicago, Kansas
& Nebraska railway. In the event that
these lines are built, and a local authority
claims that there is no doubt of it, it will
necessitate the building of another bridge
across the Missouri river at st. Joseph.
The question as to where the Rock Island
would cross the river has been a leading
subject Of speculation among the'peOple of
the Missouri river valley for some time
past, and this move will practically set
tie it.
