PRELLER.S FRIEND.

MIR. Dixon, of the English Firm by Whom
G. A. Preller Was Employed, Visits ST.
Louis and Emphatically Indorses the
Reputed Purity of the Life and Character
of the Murdered Man.
ST. LOUIS, June 30.-A pleasant-look-
ing gentleman walked into the circuit
attorneys Office yesterday and introduced
himself as Mr.. J. H. Dixon, of Bradford,
England. Mr.. Dixon arrived in st. Louis,
yesterday and is stopping at the Lindell.
He did not come direct to st. Louis, but
came by way of India and San Francisco.
In appearance he is of the fair-haired,
Saxon type, wears side whiskers and
is apparently about thirty-five years OF
age. He possesses an open, hon.
est face, which glowed with en-
thusiasm when he spoke of the merits OF
his dead friend, C. A. Preller. The object
of Mr.. Dixon's journey to st. Louis was
principally to collect evidence OF tie
identity of the body, which was disputed
by the insurance company when Mr..
Dixon left England, last November. In
answer to the question of reporter Mr..
Dixon said: 81 am averse to saying any
thing for publication that is not absolute
ly necessary; still am anxious to say
that Mr.. Preller was one of the best and
purest men that ever lived, and l am here
to vindicate his character from the foul
aspersions that have been cast upon it by
the wretch who murdered him, and then
did worse by seeking to destroy his rep
utation I can produce numbers of Incl
dents and illustrations showing his puri-
ty of mind and character. There was no
lukewarmness shown by his family. At
home we are not so demonstrative as you
are here. When heard of his death l
Immediately informed his father, and
said [ would start for here right
away, but he said it was no use; that his
son was dead, and that nothing could be
done. The only insurance Mr.. PrelleI
had was an accident policy for 81 900, OF
which he thought SO little that he neg
lected to pay the premiums when he left
England, and paid it for him. l have
known him for years, and had him travel
for me, not so much at first on account
of his knowledge of the business as on
account of my admiration for his char
acter. He made three trips for me to
the States, and if Mr.. Bishop and Mr.
Clover could admire him from simply
reading his letters, how great must be
my liking for the man who has eaten at
my table and whom / have known so
we'll"
Mr.. Dixon will visit Bellefontaine
cemetery and will provide himself with
the proofs of Preller's death to be used
on his return to England. On his jour.
ney out he stopped with some relations
in India.

MINOR APPOINTMENTS.

Senator Edmunds' Bill to Regulate the
appointment and Dismissal of Sundry
Inferior Officers of the Government.
WAsHINGToN, July 1.-Senator Ed
munds has introduced in the Senate a
ident of the United States the appoint
ment of sundry inferior officers thereof;
to regulate their tenure of office, and to
provide for their removal when the pub
lie interests shall require it,"
The bill leaves absolutely in the Pres,.
dents hands the appointment of all post.
masters, collectors of customs in small
districts, officials of the Indian and 9TH
er offices beneath the Commissioners
of those offices, and, in fact, all minor
officers. The tenure of these offices, it is
provided, shall be four years.
Section provides the method by
which any one of these officers may be
suspended or removed. 1t provides
when the President or head of depart
ment thinks an officer of that department
has been guilty of malfeasance in office,
or personal or official misconduct, he
may temporarily suspend him by an or
der of suspension in writing. In every
such case of suspension, or in case the
President shall be of opinion that such
uffcer ought to be removed without sus-
pension, application shall be Immediately
made to the Circuit Justice, Circuit
Judge or District Judge of the District
or to the Justice of the Supreme Court
of the Territory or District of Columbia
in which the office is stationed, for the
removal of such officer, stating the ground
of the proposed removal. Whereupon
the justice or judge shall cite the officer
accused to appear and show cause why
he should not be removed, and on the day
set the Judge shall hear in a summary
way and determine and decide whether
the officer ought to BE removed from office
or not, and shall order and direct ac-
cordingly.
The evident object of the bill is to re-
lieve the Senate of a large amount of bur-
densome work and to take the power of
removal from the partisan President and
Senate, and put it in the hands of an i'm.
partial judicial tribunal.

THE IRON BAND.

The Railway Building of 1886 Promising
to Exceed Former Years-What Has Al
ready Been Done and the Indications of
Further Work.
CHICAGO, July 1.-The Rail,oay Age
will say to-day: 1t is now certain that
the railway building of 1886 will far ex-
ceed that of the tive preceding years and,
indeed, surpass tnat of most years in the
history of the country. A detailed record
from January l to June 80, 1856, COM
piled from exclusively official statements,
shows that track-laying has already been
in progress in thirty-two of the States
and Territories on ninety-seven lines,
and that no less than 1,755 miles of new
main track, not counting sidings and ad-
ditional track, have been added to the
railway system of the United States since
January l. The mileage laid during the
first three months is less than third
OF the total for the entire time; and it
may be surely predicted that the total
new railway mileage of 1886 will not fall
short of 5000 miles, and may consider
ably exceed that.
The greatest activity thus far has been
in Kansas, where 30I miles of track have
been added on twelve different lines.
Florida follows with 207 miles on eight
lines; Texas with 1876 miles on six lines;
Wisconsin with 1s4 miles on four lines,
and Illinois with Ill miles ON five lines.
Nebraska has added 81 miles on six lines.
In none of the other States have more
than sixty miles been laid thus far, but in
many of them, as well as in those just
named, preparations are actively going on
for track-laying to large extent during
the next few months. The indications
are that the greatest activity will be in
Kansas, Dakota, Missouri, Arkansas,
Alabama, Georgia andsF1orida. 1t is to
be seen that this construction is mainly
going on in new parts of the country. de-

CANADIAN INDEPENDENCE

The Desire Growing Among the People of
the Domirion for Independence and
Closer Commercial Relations With the
United States.
MONTREAL, Can, June 29.-Consider-
able excitement prevails in political cir
cles about the Young Mems Liberal con-
vention which will meet in Nordheimer
Hall on Wednesday next. Eight hun
dred delegates, representing political
clubs from every important city or town
in the Dominion, will attend. Young
Canada will assert itself by claiming the
right to negotiate its own treaties with
the United States as we'll as with
other foreign countries. The abolition
of life Scholarships will be advo-
Gated, also of the vetoing power of the
Federal Government over provincial leg
islative acts. A liberal measure of re-
ciprocity with the United States will be
demanded and the proposed federation of
the British Empire, as far as including
the Dominion of Canada, will be strongly
condemned. But the main plank in the
Young Mems Liberal platform for the
coming federal elections will be the in
dependence of Canada. The French
Liberal party in the province of Quebec,
supported by a large section of
the Conservatives and of the En-
glish-speaking population, have already
pronounced for independence. A strong
National party, Iavoring independence, Is
sending delegates to Montreal to join
hands with the French NationaIists. In
Nova Scotia, the Prime Minister, Mr..
Fielding, who has ust carried the prov
ince by majority of five to one, is strong
for independence and in New Brunswick
and Prince Edwards Island the leading
men advocate independence and full
measure of reciprocity with the great
American republic.
