RAILWAY MATTERS.

ROME, wATERTowN AND oGDENsBURG.
AT meeting of the directors of the Rome,
Watertown and Ogdensburg Railroad Com
pany on Saturday Mr.. John Thorne of Utica
was elected director. The Rome, Water
town and Ogdensburg Railroad Company has
acquired possession of the Rochester and On
tario Belt Railway, which runs from Roches-
ter to Windsor Beach on Lake Ontario, near
the east bank of the Genesee River. Last
week the Rome, Watertown and 0gdensburg
Terminal Railroad Company filed articles Of
Association and the same day the City Coun-
Gil of Rochester granted the company the
right to build railroad at grade across sew
eral avenues. The Belt Railway connects
with the Rome, Watertown and Ogdensburg
near Windsor Beach, opposite Charlotte, and
the Termin al Railroad is an extension OF the
Belt Road, one mile further toward the
heart of the city of Rochester. To avoid le-
gal complications large force of men were
set to work on Sunday on the Terminal Road
and built it. The Rome, Watertown and
Ogdensburg trains will now run solid into
Rochester and avoid transfer at Charlotte, as
heretofore.

THE CHICAGO STRIKE.
$4,000 Offered for the Conviction of
Persons interfering With the
Railroad Property.

CHICAGO, June 30-It now seems evident
Judging from the events of yesterday after
noon and evening that the Lake Shore
strikers are determined to make long and
bitter fight Many of the railroad employees
sympathize with the strikers and express
the belief that the strike has only just begun
and that the company will not be able to
hold out with the necessary force of deputies
as long as its enemies will be able to poster
them with annoyances like those of yester-
day. On the other hand the officials of the
road have declared their determination to go
straight forward on the present law and fight
the battle to the end if it takes thousand
policemen to accomplish final and complete
victory.
A shot fred by Pinkerton guard at a
man who derailed two cars by throwing a
switch under a moving train last evening
caused great excitement among the switch
men and their friends, and many threats
were made.
A morning paper says that in the crowds
at PackerstoWn last night, there were dozens
who openly declared that the. Lake Shore
should not deliver another train to any line
in those yards and that if it was attempted
to-day blood would be shed. One man sad,

while not of a serious nature in itself is look
ed upon by the officials as an indication of a
new source of danger. Employees in the
neighborhood of 10000 are in thorough SYM
pathy with the strikers. AS they now leave
work at 4.30 o'clock in the afternoon, their
presence in the neighborhood of the wreck
IS thought to be somewhat menaclng TO the
company's interest. From Chicagoto Miller
Station, Ind. distance of 30 miles, fences,
switch-houses and telegraph poles are, de-
corated with posters in which the Lake Shore
Company offers $4,000 reward for the arrest
and conviction of any one violating the sec
tion of statutes which prohibits interference
with the property of railroad company by
any outsider The strikers laugh at the
notice and think it absurd to suppose that
any of their numbers would turn lnformers
for the sake of any reward.

the NEWPORT MURDER TRIAL.
Maria Dorsey confesses That She
Killed Her Father.

NEWPORT, r. l., June 30-The trial of
Allen Dorsey and Maria Dossey, his wife,
for the murder of Benjamin J. Burton, the
father of Mrs Dorsey, took an unexpected
and intensely exciting turn this morning.
Last night Mrs. Dorsey voluntarily made
full confession of her guilt and of the details
of the murder, showing 1t to have been the
most cruel, heartless and c0ld-b l00ded in the
history of the State. The disclosure was
made to her spiritual adviser, Rev. Mr.. Van
horne, whom she sent for. To him and to
the counsel on both sides she confessed the
terrible crime in all its details. Mr.. Van
horne was put ON the stand add told the
result of his interview. The court room was
packed to the doors and even outside, and
the excitement was intense within the room
and about the city. The prisoners show little
or no signs of emotion, maintaining the same
immovable calmuess and indifference as ever.
The lack of emotion on the part Of Dorsey
has been the most remarkable feature of the
trial He has sat quietly following the trial
with interest, but with no evidence of ex-
eitement.
The crowd this afternoon at the trial was
immense and occupied every lncn OF tne
space in the court room.
Mr.. Ives. for Mrs. Dorsey, put her on the
stand Mrs. Dorsey testified that her hus-
band said he would fix" her father. She
did not believe he really would. He told her
neighbors to get her out of hearing OF the
shots, as he was going to kill her father. She
did not think he would, but went as he or
dered her She said she would not have gone
if she had thought he really would commit
the crime. When she came back from the
neighbors Emily told her Allen had done it.
She said, "0h, has hep' She said Dorsey
wanted to shoot again, thinking Burton
might not be dead. Her relations with her
husband had been quite pleasant, but he was
easily provoked. She did not wilfully take
any part in the killing of her father. She
said Rev. Mr.. Vanhorn's statement of her
confession was correct She talked with her
father several times after Friday, but did not
tell him of her husbands threat. Mr.. Ives
rested the case her for Mrs. Dorsey.
The counsel fer Dorsey said he would make
no argument in defense of his client.
Mr.. Ives then made a short plea for Mrs
Dorsey.
The Attorney General made two hours
plea for the State, after which recess was
taken till evening.
The court came in at 7.30 o'clock The
crowd was immense and the excitement in
tense Judge Durpee charged the jury who
retired. AT 1915 after being out three hours
and forty-five minutes the jury came in with
a verdict of guilty for both prisoners. A
sentence of Imprisonment for life at hard
labor in the Providence county Jail was i'm
posed on both. The verdict and sentence
were received with eompoSure and without
any signs of emotion by the prisoners.

noon the drill shows improvement on yester-
day, and good judges say the brigade is fur
ther advanced than last year at the same
time The rifle practice company skirmish

panies F, FL, G and Of the first regiment
and Companies B, G, II, C, E, d and A,

are not made up, but the shooting was pro-
nounced excellent, and the Frontier Guards,
Cos. E and G, second regiment, and Co. G
of the first regiment are believed to stand
ahead in the order given. The exhibition OF
the gattling gun given this afternoon was
much enjoyed by large concourse of spec
tators. The battery of light artillery had
horses and mounted drill took place for
the first time today.
The result of the target shooting was most
highly commendable to the Maine militia,
and especially to the Frontier Guards of
Eastport, who led the score which was as
follows for the five leading companies:
Frontier Guards, sc men, 1142 points; Co.
c, second regiment, Dexter, So men, 934
points; Co. G, first regiment, Biddeford, 80
men, 933 points; Co. E, second regiment,
Skowhegan, So men, S72 points; Co. A, sec
ond regiment. Hampden, 81 men, $50 points.
The firing was company skirmish match,
250 to 100 yards, distances unknown, for
silk flag 10 rounds to a man, five on advance,
five in retreat. Captain Field of the United
States 4th artillery, detailed to inspect the
encampment, pronouncing it the best record
under the circumstances ever made, and that
the i've targets cannot be duplicated in the
country. The score Of the Frontier Guards
is regarded as phenomenal Out of $50 shots
but three misses were made. This is the
third year that this company has led the
companies of the State in rife practice.
The Mayor and city government were en-
tertained at dinner tonight by Col. Mitchell
of the first regiment.

Governors staff, were riding out to the rifle
range when, by stumbling of his horse, Gen.

broken and otherwise injured. He was at

was reported by the Governor, who visited
him tonight, as being quite comfortable.
