TONY'S TANTRUMS.

Tony Milvers, who is one-third proprietor
of the Sherman house and joint, situated on
east Douglas avenue near the Santa Fe track,
stimulated by bad whiskey and jealosy,
mounted his high horse yesterday afternoon
and made things quite brisk about the house
He went into the dinning-room broke two
castors, the dishes and chairs and made bust
ness decidedly brisk for a while until an
emisary of the house brought policeman
Charley Snyder to the rescue, who escorted
him to a hotel where dishes and chairs don't
flourish.
The story learned by reporter who visited
the house, is this:
Tony Milvers, in company with two girls
leased the Sherman house some time ago and
have been running ninth-class hotel and
joint, in partnership. The parties are all
Germans, and the male end of the partner
ship has been in the country over year.
He was engaged to be married to one of the
girls, but it appears that another fellow had
made some progress into her affections.
Tony was jealous and getting full yesterday
probably on purpose, determined to bust up
the partnership, which he did in good shape.
The female delegation of the outfit claims
that he had handled all the cash and that he
has put it away and had everything fixed for
a dissolution when the cyclone struck

RAILROAD RACKET.

Owing to hitch in matters night before
last, many important items were locked out,
and among other things the meeting of the
city council. They were called together in
extraordinary session to consider a petition
as long as the moral law in opposition to
granting right of way down Mosely avenue
to the Chicago. st. Joseph & Fort Worth
railroad. The council failed to reach con-
clusion in the premises and adjourned.
The subject was on top on the street yester-
day, and various were the opinions express
ed the touching the wisdom of the ordinance
granting the right of way. Some said the
railroads had made the property over there
SO valuable that the people have grown rich
and are now kicking Many of them have
sold out at big figures, doomed by the pres
ence of these roads, and they too are kicking
One man said that when the Rock Island
proposition was first talked up, the fellows on
that side of town said they would oppose the
bonds if the road came down Wichita street,
and now they are opposed to giving right of
way on their side
There is something in these arguments, and
no one can deny that locating the roads on
the east side has doomed property fully fifty
per cent in that locality, but on the other
hand it is not good policy to spread out and
make long succession of crossings on the
avenue

BAD LUCK.

A fellow with more bones than flesh. and
CAB than grit, made things loud yesterday af-
ternoon in saw dust joint that Is perched
in the secod story of building on West
Douglas avenue He opened the racket after
he had got himself around heaped up glass
of beer, and was making the attempt to pay
the bill. He claimed that some one, about as
low down the ladder as himself. had relieved
him of $50 and he had not discovered it until
that moment The attempt to be very much
surprised aad enraged at the alleged thief
proved feeble one in the eyes of the anx-
poor robbed creature finally made n
remark that proved an unfortunate thing for
him. The insinuatiOn that a certain fellow
in the crowd was suspected of the crime
brought complete collapse to his own door
Before he had time to gather himself in off
the floor he was furnished with another one
of them things" and as result was in
worse fix than if he had lost S150-wliich he
did not have.
The next scene was partially enacted where
a man on the street could get full benefit of it.
1t commenced, however, in the dive by the
picking up of the unfortunate specimen by
the lad he had encountered assisted by the
irate bar tender. 1t ended by dumping
''long john out the door and he landed about
eighteen feet below under very embarrassing
circumstances He was allowed to pick him
self up and examine if he was broke up.

MAGISTRATES COURT.

The case of the state VS. George linn was
called in Justice Walkers court yesterday
morning but on account of the absence of
material witnesses it was continued until D.
IN. today. linn is charged with grand lar
ceny, in having stolen S43 from Benjamin +.
Cullerr July 14th.
The case of the state VS. Charles Gruetz-
mache was in the same court and the ac-
cused held for the district court in the sum of
$780, This is the fellow captured by Tom
Mcnamara for robbing John P. Roster, the
old German, which was reported in the
EAGLE at the time This fellow and another
followed the old man a day and night and
finally when he had become pretty full, they
cut his pocket and got the money, about s475.
This fellow acknowledged to having some of
the money which he gave up, but lays the
robbing to his chum, who he says gave him
a dizzy. He acknowledged that he intended
to skip out for Texas 1t is believed that
there was no other fellow connected with the
job and that this lad got the whole pile. This
crime is highway robbery, and in many of
the states and in England it ranks next in
enormity to arson, therefore it appears to
the writer that it is rather moderated in this
case. In some states it is called larceny from
the person, but highway robbery appears the
most apprOpriate

NEWS TO HIM.

with Martin Irons to defraud the latter's
step-daughter of her half interest in three

said he had no intimate acquaintance with
him. He admitted knowing the step-daugh-
ter referred to but was not married to her as
he knew of and did not know any reports to
that effect were in circulation. He did not seem
however, much surprised at the report but
considered the present trouble of more mag
nitude than anything else in the wide. wide
world.
''How do you account for this reports" was
asked. well" said he, after capturing a
long breath, ''some railroad detective has
made it all up"
''Why would they do such thing
''They have kind of a spite at Irons and
me" he replied after assuming a semi-philo-
sophie mood and you know they will do

WEST SIDE ROAD.

One of the things left out in the mix-up of
yesterdays paper was the report of a meet
ing of citizens interested on the west side,
which was held in the Fifth ward school house.
The object of the meeting was to shape things
for building the street railway on that side.
The conclusion reached was that they meet
with the directors of the Wichita City street
railway company and the directors of the
West Douglas Avenue street railway COM
pany yesterday at Niederlander's Office. The
meeting took place as announced and prop
osition was submitted to Major Powell and
Judge Ruggles, the attorney OF the company.
The proposition was that he build line of
street railway from the corner of Main street
and Douglas avenue over the river and along
Chicago avenue to Seneca street. That part
of the line to be finished in sixty days and to
have half hour service. In six
months he is to build on out to the
sixth principal meridian. thence south to
Maple street and east ON Maple across the
river to Main, and north on Main to the
will pay $500 towards building the bridge,
which is half the estimated cost.
Major. Powell thought the road wouldn't
pay, but Capt Smyth drew such vivid pic
ture of the way things would look over there
in a few months, with the fair, Garfield uni
versity, the Sisters academy, the Fort Scott
depot and machine shops, and the new school
house to cost 50, 100, for which the contract
was let last week, that he began to think he
might be mistaken. Finally he agreed to
call a meeting of the directors of his company
and meet these geetlemen at the same place
at 10 this morning, and give them an answer
There is hardly doubt but that he will ac-
cept the proposition as it will shut off all
rival companies.

HE SAYS so.

Mr. George Ross ventilated himself yester-
dav to an EAGLE reporter concerning the
outlook in this city for packing house. He
is of the decided opinion that such an enter
prise could be run here and return more than
an average remuneration. He based his ar
glment mainly from some of his own exper-
fence in that line, and is prepared to prove
that he is correct, no matter who draws a
long breath TO the contrary.
Quite number of parties are investigating
the subject at present, and it is reasonable
that something Of a beneficial nature may ar
rive and make its little bow before long

Morris tribune., 1886-09-08

There are many complaints con-
cerning the alleged inactivity of the
railroad and warehouse commission
ers. The greater number of them are
without foundation. Present laws are
inadequate. The powers of the COM
missioners, at present, are largely ad-
visory. The laws at best are indefinite
and it Is difficult in the extreme to
tell just how far they can be made to
control railroad and warehouse man
agement. Under these circumstances
only meager RESULTS should be ex-
pected and positive, satisfactory work
is an impossibility. The commission
ers have secured valuable concessions
from railroads which will save large
sums of money to the people of the
state. They have also issued a
number of positive orders. These
orders it is very doubtful if they have
the power to enforca. Where there is
doubt, as in the case of the orders re-
quiring railroads to carry passengers
for three cents per mile and to grant
permission to build flat warehouses,
the matter is being taken promptly
into the courts. BY this means the
commissioners will either establish
their power to enforce the orders they
have made or will discover the defects
in the laws under which they are en-
deavoring to act and be able to show
the next legislature just what is
needed in the way of additional or
amendatory legislation. When these
and other facts which might he
mentioned are fully considered, the
TRIBUNE believes that all fair-minded
people will agree that all this petu-
liant fault-fndind is uncalled for.
Abuses in railroad and warehouse
managemet are of long standing and
are rooted deep. The work of oyer
turning them is formidable and can
not be accomplished in day. The
commissioners are doing as well as
ought to be expected and if the next
legislature, after careful examina-
ton of all that will have been accom-
p!ished by them, will make the
changes in existing laws shown to be
necessary, satisfactory results will
follow later on,
