being made for him in all directions. 1t

ing after the murder a stranger appeared at
the residence of F. Montague, four miles
south of jefferson, OAK, and asked for a
razor with which to shave, thougi. he wore

old suit of clothes. From the description
given by Mr.. Montague there is every rea-
son to believe that the stranger was Trout.

now on his trail and hope very soon to over
take him. Mr.. Montague had not heard of
the murder when the stranger visited him,
but says he was nervous and describes his

THE TUNNEL CAPTURED.
Mr.. Yerkes Scores Another Victor
i'm the Chicago Council.

CHICAGO, July cat stormy session
of the city council which did not adjourn
till nearly o'clock this morning. an ordi-
nance was passed granting North Chicago
street railway company the use of the La
Sale street tunnel. The consideration
demanded for this valuable franchise is the
payment of $4,000 rent annually. The
company is also required to pave the tunnel
and furnish it for the accommodation of the
city's ordinary traffic The expense of
paving and lighting. however, will be de-
Quoted from the annual rental. The
president of the company is c..
l.. Yerkes. and the capital
is furnished, it is claimed. by a Philadelphia
syndicate. of which Mr.. Yerkes is the
head. The proposed granting Of the use of
the LaSalle street tunnel has been the sub
ject OF constant comment since the council
recently gave the same company the right
to adopt the cable system on certain streets.
The papers have not hesitated to assert
that the influence of several councilmen
had been purchased by the syndicate and
that franchises would eventually be sold at
ridiculously low figure. The terms of the
ordinance passed tonight are regarded as
very favorable to the company interested.

stagnation and idleness. These are clearly
the results of the understanding tariff, and
the hardships fall chiefly upon the textile

ject is the restriction of trade in the products
of labor. 1t prevents a worldwide buying

enemy of labor. 1t limits the sale of the pro-
ducts of labor, increases the cost Of living
by taxing articles of consumption, makes
employment and wages unstable and uncer-
