CInnabar TO Ciark's Forks.
Special 20 the Globe.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 24-Two OF three
propositions have been introduced in con-
greSS TO allow a railroad TO be built in the
Yellowstone park. to connect Cinnabar
with the ClaTk's Forks mining districts,
both OF which are in Montana The min
ing district mentioned is one of the richest
in the territories, but it Is at present mac
cesSible. Cinnabar is on the Northern Pa
citic. Between it and the mining district is q
mountainous and almost impossible region,
ana the only communication now is but a
wagon road running through the National
PARK substantially on the line of the de-
sired railroad through the valley of the
Yellowstone river and Clark's Forks. This
route runs only comparatively few miles
through the northeast corner of the park,
and the use Of this route is absolutely nee
esSaTy on account of the natural barriers
between Cinnabar and the mining districts,
If the latter is To be worked at all.
The objection 10 the bills introduced IS
that they were loosely drawn. and it has
been suggested that if the franchise asked
was granted the law might be so construed
as to permit an extension of railroads
through the park. Congressman Carson Of
AAAAiafAo AAt.o -hA AAiN PNoAA1 4sAAN'
prepared and introduced a bill granting a
right of way to the proposed railroad, but
guarding the concession AT every
point that the minimum impairment
of the park snail result. and so that
the public rights shall be as fully as possible
protected. The right Of way is limited TO
200 feet. except at stations, which must not
occur oftener then once in seven miles,
where it may be 400 feet for length of
1000 feet The route is precisely defined,
and the railroad company is To use no
mineral taken from the park except
what is in its right OF way,
and it acquires no right TO any
coal or other mineral. even in the right of
way. There is a strict provision against
any discrimination in the passenger or
freight tariff. and that the road must be in
running order within three years or the
right of way will lapse, is made condition

roses, had been erected i'm the parlOr, and
before it the bride and groom knelt as they
received the benediction of the official
clergyman, Rev. X. Young. ID. D.. pastor
Of the First VI. +. church Of this city. The
marriage service of the NJ. L. church was

ical Of the circuit of love and truth, was
more complete than any the wizard of

force that so readily yields to his charm.
The groom's best man was l.. +. Tappan,
United States navy, of New York. The
bride was given away by her father. There
were no bridesmaids.

mond and pearl necklace. the gift of the
groom. Mr.. Edison was attired in black
Prince Albert coat. black tie and his hands
were unglOved. Congratulations were re-
ceived under an immense floral wish-bone,
composed principally of roses. The other
floral pieces were equally elaborate. New

drawn upon. The presents made up most
rich and costly array, including every article

bracelets, diamonds, ruby and sapphire
pin, column of onyx with gold

that somebody has been taking advantage

masses of the English metropolis. In
deed, symptoms of this have occasionally
cropped out of late at other points in the
British Isles. The Trafalgar square mob,
so called, was but the sign of a general
disease in the English body polite, and
the causes Immediately arising from lack
of employment and of bread, lie, per-
haps, still deeper in the general discon-
tent among the laboring and kindred
classes all over Europe, evidenced by
socialism in Germany and nihilism in
Russia. The working and land
less strata of society on the
continent, ground down beneath the
weight of effete and pampered nobility and
the weight of rotten and corrupt thrones,
feel their abject condition, and their re-
sentiment at the relentless tyranny of
their masters will occasionally burst forth
as in the affair in Trafalgar square yes
terday and the day before. But if the
cause of this unrest of the masses in
Europe is apparent, the source of the
same restlessness and dissatisfaction
among the laboring masses of this
country, as indicated by the recent rioting
at the Pennsylvania mines and other
places, besides instances of like import all
over the country, cannot be so
easily interpreted. The ten thousand
idle mechanics and workingmen who
formed the nucleus of the Trafalgar
square "mob" were men desperate from
looking absolute starvation in the face.
But the Pennsylvania rioters had EN- ploy-
ment, and enough to eat ard drink, their
only grievance, according to their own
announcement, being that they and their
employers-nott their master disagreed
as to the exact compensation for their
services. In fact, there seems in this
country, as well as Europe, restlessness
among the masses of the people, which,
spurred on by hunger, materializes into
the spirit of the bowling mob. as in Lon
don yesterday, and. irritated by griev-
ances real or fancied, breaks out into riot
ing and bloodshed as in the coal regions
of Pennsylvania.

other to build up the business and pros.

useful and enterprising coterie-now
nearly all gone over the OVERWHELMING
L. W. House, Vim. j. Hutchins, and others
who gave Houston the character for en-
terprise which she has always enjoyed.
Formerly one of the pillars in the Central
railway, Mr.. Groesbeeck did much to
make that great artery of commerce what
it was, and is. Without doubt. the finan-
cial difficulties following his last enter
prise, the building of the Capitol hotel,
did much to hasten his death.
