The minority report of the House Com
mlttee in reference to the Presidential Success
sion bill raises many interesting questions which
will bear careful discussion. For instance what
would be the relation of the promoted Secre-
tary of State to his fellOw-Cabinet officers;
would he appoint new Secretary of State. or
an entirely new Cabinet and who would sue
ceed him IN the executive office in case OF bis
death and what would his salary be7 1t is
possible, of course, that these questions would
never disturb the National serenity; but when
Congress is providing against emergencies
attention should be given to all contingencies
that are within reasonable limits. The bill
will hardly pass the House without amend
ments.

HThe passage through the Senate of a bill to
authorize the purchase of the old Produce Ex-
change building for use as business headquart-
ers for the Army will be generally approved
by army men. The rent winch has been paid
for the structure in Houstonst since 1867
amounts to about $40O, 900, sum that would
nearly pay for the proposed purchase. Since
there is no question about the necessity of
having much army business transacted IN this
city, the United States would certainly find it
cheaper in the long run to own the building
occupied.

were very enthusiastic over the scheme
and thought that the building of the

siderable conversation as to the pro-
posed route the following Port Huron
gentlemen subscribed to the enterprise:
Henry Howard, William Jenkinson,
O'Brien j. Atkinson, Chas. y. Ward,

all being subscribed and five per cent
paid in.
The proposed road will run through
the counties Of st. Clair, Sanilac. Tus-
cola and Bay as follows: From Port
Huron to Lexington: crossing the Port
Huron x Northwestern railroad be-
tween Croswell and Anderson. and
thence to Sandusky, Sanilac county.
From Sandusky the road will touch
Wilmot and Caro-. and thence take a
direct line to Bay City. The road will
connect with the Grand Trunk and Pt.
Huron Il Northwestern near Croswell,
the Pontiac, Oxford x Caseville railway
at Kingston, the Detroit Il Bay City
railway at Caro-. the Tuscola & Huron
railway near Fairgrove, and all roads
entering Bay City. The road will be
known as the Bay City, Caro- Il Port
Huron railway. The surveyors will
commence work within ten days.
1t is the intention of the company to
eventually extend the road from Bay
City across the lower peninsula to
FrankfOrd on Lake Michigan, at which
point the lake is only 60 miles wide,
from whence communication is to
be established with northwestern
poi nts, giving line to Buffalo 40 miles
shorter than present routes.
The Port Huron stockholders are en-
thusiastic over the scheme and express
their confidence of the early building of
the road. a meeting of the directors
of the road is being held in Bay City
to-day, the Port Huron directors being
in attendance.--POrt Huron Daily

ROBBED BY WOMEN.
A Berrien County Negroes Expert
ence in Strange City.

A country darky by the name OF
Thomas Walker, from Alapaha, on the
Brunswick and Western railroad, came
into the city Monday morning and sue
ceeded in getting into trouble soon after
his arrival. Walker had considerable
money with him and came here with the
Intention of spending the holidays and
having good time generally.
On Monday night, after having spent
the day in taking in the sights, he got into
bad company and went TO a house in
Cooper shop lane, kept by Ann Harris
and woman by the name OF kiser. He
concluded to spend the night there, and
was shown to his room. Yesterday
morning when he awoke he found that
his pocketbook, containing $40, was
missing, as were most of his clothes.
He went before Magistrate Warlng
Russell, Jr., and stating his case had
warrants taken out against the two
women, charging them with stealing his
money and clothes. Detective Wether
horn succeeded in running down the Har-
ris woman during the morning in dis
reputable part OF the city and brought
her before the Magistrate, who sent her to
Jail.
Late in the afternoon the detective
found the kiser woman at her mothers
place, about six miles out Oh the Charles
ton and Savannah railroad. He arrested
her, brought her to the city and placed
her in Jail along with the other woman.
The money was not found upon either
of them, they having disposed of it In case
they should be arrested. Walker is posi-
tive in his identification OF the women.
There is little douBt that they are the par
ties who took his money. They will
doubtless be induced to disclose its where
abouts to-day.
Detective Wetherhorn showed consid-
cradle skill, and did some clever work in
having both OF these offenders placed be-
hind the bars in so short time after the
facts Of the case came to his knowledge.

FOR ROBBING THE MAILS.
A Camden County Letter Carrier
Convicted in the u. 5. Court.

A Camden County Letter Carrier
Convicted in the u. S. Court.
Isaiah Armstrong, a colored youth of
twenty summers or less, was tried in the
United States Circuit Court yesterday for
stealing a registered letter from the mail.
In November Armstrong was the mail
carrier between Jeffersonton and Satilla
Bluff in Camden county. The places
were eight miles apart, but Armstrong
made the round trip between the places
on foot in day with the mail bag slung
over his shoulder.
According to the evidence registered
letter containing 60c., and directed TO Sa-
tilla Bluff, was put in the NAL at " agnes
Vile Nov. IL. From Waynesville, where
it was posted, the letter was traced to
JeffersOntOn. Postmaster ID. S. Brough-
ton testified that he received the missing
letter and another one, numbers SO and
Isl, and receipted for them. Both were
replaced in the mail bag ana were turned
over TO Armstrong. Postmaster Il. A.
Broughton, of SaLilla Bluff, testified that
on Saturday night. Nov. 10, Armstrong
entered the post Office and threw down
the mail bag. The Postmaster did not
notice that anything was the matter with
the strap fastening the bag at first. When
he opened the bag he found but one regis
tered letter. He turned TO speak to Arm
strong, but the boy had disappeared.
The defendant stated in his own behalf
that he got lost in the woods and fell
down in the dark. The boy caught on a
root, and when he tried to pull it loose he
tore one Of the staples loose from the
leather. He supposed that the registered
letter dropped out of the bag. The jury
did not take much stock in the prisoners
story, seeming to regard it as too i'm
probable, and returned verdict of guilty
Armstrong will probably be sentenced
to-day.
