PITTSBURG, PA, October lS.-The de
cision of the Supreme Court in the case of
appeals of the Pennsylvania Railroad Co.
and the corporations leased and controlled
by it involves the question Ofthe construc-
ton of cOmpetlting line between Pitts
burg and the seabOard. The South Penn
road was propelled by syndicate compos-
ed of the Yanderbilts and other
capitalists and after some considerable
work had been done the controlling inter
est was transferred by the Yanderbilts to
the Pennsylvania Company. Attorney
General Cassidy, of Pennsylvania, on the
suggestion OF a minority of the syndicate,
applied for and obtained an injunction
from the Dauphin County Court
forbidding transfer Of the
stock to the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company claiming that the purchase was
and intended to destroy
a eompetiting corporation, and appeal was
taken from the decision, but the Supreme
Court affirmed the position of the lower
court, and directed appellants to pay the
costs, 1t is now probable that the
South Pennsylvania will be pushed for

MADRID, October ls.-The Cabinet h

nation to-day in relation 70 Cuban i'm.
ports 1t is hoped that the conflict will
be smoothed out but there Is unanimity
of opinion here that Spain should be firm
in support of the interests Of Cuba. la
Opinion says President Clc,eland's de-
cree originated in intrigues Of the North
American Steamship Company, which
was annoyed because the Spanish trans
Atlantic line from Barcelona cut IL out In
the carrying trade between Cuba and
Mexico. The writer believes that Ameri-
ca will not sacrifice the general interests Of
the country for the sake of any particular
enterprise, but holds that II the copyen-
ton of 1884 be really broken In this pre-.
emptory fashion Spain will have more
than sufficient justification for putting all
the American products in the fourth col
umn of the customs tariff"

The Sturdy Judge Demolished the Willy
Politician on the Tariff Question.
Special Ttiegram TO the Register
WESTON w. VA, October 1s.-One of
the largest political gatherings ever as
sembled in Lewis county perhaps, listened
to joint discussion to-day between Judge
Brannon and Gen. GOff. By 3 o'clock the
streets were seething mass of people. By
II fully two thousand people were present.
The crowd was too large to find room in
the Opera House, as was the previous ar
Iangement and they were oblidged to
erect q stand in the open air, on the north
side of the Opera House. At about .
o'clock a crowd assembled for the purpose
of hearing the discussion.
The arrangements were as follows: Goff
to open in q forty-fve minutes speech, fol-
lowed by Brannon in an hour and a half
speech, Goff to close in u twenty-five
minutes speech.
Goff gave one of his old speeches with
which some of the old farmers were familiar.
lie talked principally of Protection under
the broad shield of American law" and
made no point worthy of noting.
Brannon made better speech than he
did at Glenville and was cheered through
out by a crowd of the most enthusiastic
and hilarious Democrats ever assembled
in Lewis county. The Judge defined his
position on the tariff question so clearly
that the most untutored farmer could not
help seeing that the Democrats had the
right side of the question and that Gen.
Golf proved his protection theory by
SOphistry and defamation. The Judge
completely demOralized Gotf on the tariff
question and said that the old cry of free
trade would not win this year.
In conclusion he said that on the second
day of November he would bury GOtf
politically and that he would now an
nOunce that his (Gofi7s) bOodlerS would be
the principal pall-bearerS, and that John
Roach would fix the funeral. The Judge
keeps his own record. To-day the Demo-
Gratis are inspired anew with hope and sue

Drouth Reports From Kansas.
CHICAGO, October 1a.-The FdrmeS
Rerier publishes the following summary
of its weekly crop reports: Fall wheat
seeding has been nearly finished in Mis-
souri, and Kansas and is still progressing
in Indiana, Ohio and Michigan. The re-
ports are not yet sufficiently complete to
indicate the acreage as compared to former
years, but the few returns made show an
increase in Ohio and Indiana over last
year. The Ohio reports show that the
seeding was accomplished under generally
favorable conditions, though one or two
counties report insufficient moisture. The
conditions in Missouri are generally re-
ported favorable.
Reports of drouth again come from Kan
sas, and in Davis, Rush and Sumner coun-
ties the reports state that the winter wheat
is again threatened with ruin owing to the
lack of rain. In Indiana, Iowa and Ne
braska the conditions are reported favor
able for fall plowing and seeding. In Ohio
and Indiana the marketing of wheat is re-
ported to be free, while in Iowa and Min
