HuntinEtOn's Hand / the sOhsmO-A b
Goal Deal In Prospect,


H~untipgtOn'S Hand In the sehem0-A Big
Coal DoRltn Prospect,
The bill which passed the House and
Senate last week, authorizing the con-
struction Of a railway bridge across the
Ohio river, at Cincinnati, for the benefit
Of the Chesapeake 4 ohio:.Railroad, was Of
far more importance than realized. Few
members Of Congress knew that it was for
the benefit OF o. Huntington, the great
railway magnate. Mr., Weaver, q repre-
sentative from Nebraska, was the cham
pion Of the bill in the House, and Senator
Blackburn itS friend in the Senate.
Mr.. Huntington is prominently connect
ed with tho great system or roads, which
by means OF the bridge, will connect the
Southeast with the Northwest systems,
Traffic will be diverted from the trunk
lines running east OF Cincinnati, and the
whole present system will be revolution
lied. The Louisville 4 Nashville, which
has spent millions in getting from Louis,
vile to Cincinnati, and the Cincinnati
Southern, which was built by the city Of
Cincinnati at a cost OF over S60,00O,000,
are to be the principal sufferers by the
construction OF the bridge. By
this bill, too, an elevated railway
was conceded aud, in q few menths,
locomotives will be laundering over
the heads OF the astonished people Of Gin
Cinnati. MI. Huntington already has the
right OF way through the "Queen City"
and everything is lovely for him. Two
thousand italian workmen are on the way
to this country to help to construct the
road. Mr.. Huntington proposes to revo-
lutionize the coal business Of that corner
Of the earth. Five hundred coal cars,
with q capacity Of % tons each, are being
built for him, and he will furnish fuel
from his inexhaustible coal beds on the
Chesapeake and Ohio far cheaper than
Pittsburgh dealers can dream OF, with
their present transportation facilities,

what They Lost by Moving.

Kingston FREEMAN.
A little girl, in company with her moth-
or, visited the house Of q friend living
Rondout. The little gill
was born and brought up In the house In
which she was visiting. Her parents had
moved from II about a month ago. The
girl took great pleasure In going from one
place to another where sue had spent
many happy hours playing. Just before
leaving her Ntnother took her into the
lady's bedroom and showed her q wee
baby that had arrived q few days before.
She looked at II for q moment, and then
lnnoCently exclaimed: MAMMA, we NOV.
ed a little toogoon. We'd have got that
baby II we had stayed there"

THE DEAD LETTER SALE.
Scenes i'm the Auction ROOm-Bidderx
Who Take Their Chances

There was motley crowd at the dead letter
Office sale at DOwling's auction rooms to-day. In
side the large room two long platforms composed
OF plain boards thrown lengthwise over some
carpenters horses" constituted the funeral bier
OF the dead letter packages which were ranged in
varfous-sized white bundles Of mysterious ap-
pearance. With the caution, "Remember, We
don't guarantee the contents Of any OF these pack
ages the auctiOneer mounted his stand, and call
ing for the f1rst-numbered article (Which was No.
1874 Of the catalogue he proceeded to excite the
cupidity OF his audience with the familiar cry,
"Here, yre; thirty bid five IL you make it I'VE II
you make it."
The fact that the packages are not open and
brief and matter-Of-fact description in the cata-
logue, such as toothbrush and box OF hafrpins -
adds interest to the SALE as 1t Is something OF
lottery. The bundles, some large, some small, fly
with lightning rapidity through the n1mble fingers
Of the auctiOneer. He doesn't stop to hand an
the bundle-whatever 1t may contain-is sent fly
ing over the crowd and into the eagerly upl1fted
hands OF the successful bidder. Sometimes the
bundle misses its mark and tumbeS to the ground,
but this does not daunt the courage OF the loud
voiced gentleman, but with laugh and a remark,
"Why don't you keep your eyes open?' he proceeds
TO dispose OF the next bundle Few purchasers
have the courage or grace to open their packages
to the inquisitive gaze OF the people, but content
their curiosity by furtively feeling the package
until they fnd favorable opportunity TO retire 10
a distant corner and these discover what Dame
Fortune has brought to them.
The bidding seldom goes above dollar, and all
half pound plug OF tobacco are Knocked down in
moment.

ports About Juror ROSenberG.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE story made public this
morning that Jacob Rosenberg. the ninth Juror
In the McQuade trial. is friend OF John keenan,
and is ON terms of intimacy with Doodle
Aldermen Farley and Shells created
considerable excitement about the district attor-
neys office to-day. The district attorney and his
assistants are inysstigating the NATTER and to.
T. }. Nesbitt regarding the matter. They
substantially tell the story they previously
told OF Rosenberg's friendship to John keenan, and
the Doodle aldermen. These statements will be
presented to the court, perhaps, this after
noon and 1t is said that further evidence is to be
procured before the matter is finally passed
upon. Before the trial was proceeded with
this morning Recorder Smyth was made fully ac-
guainted with the facts brought out in regard to
the ninth juror, and his honor ordered the case to
be proceeded with. Assistant District Attorney
Davis said to-day that the investigation
was not yet concluded. II the charges made
We're proven there would be nlistrial OF the case.
The court at all times had the power tn
withdraw juror during the trial OF 4
case and this would be done. The withdrawal
OF a juror would end the trial at once. Mr.. Davis
could not say whether the matter would be laid
before the grand jury, but ROSenberg's arrest for
perjury viii likely be made should It be found
necessary to take him from the further considera-
tion OF the case.
