Her Big Roy Called Him.
Phoebe Zeal. Record.

Plochc lCal. Record.
A good story comes to hand as to how
Jim Hedges of Fresno was taken in and
done for by the old lady and her son who
live out at Sulphur Springs. 1t is well
known to teamsters and others who have
travelled over the road between here and
Milford that the old lady is an expert at
draw poker. Jim Hedges found this out
some months ago to the tune of $50, and in
order to get even on her he rung in two
decks of marked cards on bis return trip
from Bullionville. The cards broke evenly
for Jim, and he was rapidly depicting the
old woman's treasure-box, and would, no
doubt, have broke her were it not that her
big boy dropped on his racket, and, secur-
ing his rife, brought it to bear on Jim with
the remark: PAY over mothers money or
Eli blow your brains out" Hedges. al
though brave and fearless fellow, saw the
joke and gracefully forked over the old
woman's ducats.

HOWELL. Mich, Jan. 4.-There is liable
TO be trouble here over the railroad war be-
tween the Toledo, Ann Arbor & Northern
Michigan and the Detroit, Lansing d
Northern railroads. There has been dis
pute about the right of the former road 10
cross the Iatter's track in extending its line,
and the case was brought into court and
appealed. 1t is now pending on appeal to
the ancient court Yesterday morning
force of about $50 Toledo, Ann Arbor d
Northern Michigan employees were brought
to the point of the projected crossing and
began work digging under the Lansing
road. They made a cut braced up the
track of the Lansing road and constructed
the line of the Toledo road under II. The
workers were protected by an armed force,
which left last night when the work was
cOmnleted. This morning about 500 men
were brought on the scene by the Lansing
road people and they will proceed to tll up
the cut made under their road. There are
$50 men on the ground in the interest OF
the Toledo & Ann Arbor road, and there
may be violence before the cut is filled. The
Lancing force is armed, but the Toledo men
are not armed to day.
THE GOVERNOR APPEALED TO.
The Toledo & Ann Arbor force this aft
ernoon drove away the force OF the Lansing
road from the bridge and cut which were
forcibly made last night. The men then
cut the telegraph wires of the Detroit, Lam
sing & Northern road and tore up the track
for half mile on each side of the cut. The
traffic on the road between Genoa and
Fowlersville is now interrupted. What the
next step will be is matter of doubt An
appeal by the Lansing people was made to
Gov. Alger to-day for assistance, but he de-
clared he had no authority to call out the
militia except at the request of the sheriff,
which has not yet been made.

Favorable TO state Control.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The supreme
court rendered its decisions to-day in the
cases known as the Mississippi Railroad
commission cases. The judgments of the
circuit court, from which these are appeals,
were reversed and the causes are remanded.
The railroads concerned are the Illinois
Central, the Mobile & Ohio and the New
Orleans & Northeastern. The principle in
volved is the right of state to pass laws
controlling in certain respects railroads
which extend into other states. The de-
cision is favorable to state control.

Rock Island Branching Ont.

CHICAGO, Jan. At was rumored here
yesterday that the Rock Island road had
decided upon an important addition to its
system, namely in an extension of its main
line into Kansas and the construction of
short lines from Larkin and Atchson and
st. Joseph, so as to make river connections
at these points. To-day the report is con-
firmed by responsible official of the road.
The number of miles of new track line pro-
jected is about four hundred. The extern
sion will be virtually competitive line,
aud in its charter, which places the capital
stock at SIS, 600. 600. the company is named
the Chicago, Kansas 81 Nebraska. This
move is regarded as most important, as it
will bring the Rock Island into competition
with all the big lines west of the Missouri.

Special to the Globe.
MuwAuKEE. Wis, Jan. 4.-The ad-
iourned meeting of the chamber Oh COM
Ioarce committee and the railroad officials,
for adiusting the question of grain rates,
1vao hold this morning. The same gentle
men were present as appeared at the SaIur-
dow Meeting. The entire ground OF diner
ence was again gone over thoroughly. Out
the question at issue was brought no nearer
q settlement than before. The railroad
renresentatiyes stated that the railroads
had gone over the subject carefully last
February and then made such reductions as
thew could do in fairness to the muitltude
of interests which they were Dounu W
conserve. They claimed that no complains
had come to them from shippers tnat Ilieir
rates were excessive, and that IL was Unfair
to say they were proven 100 hlgh siui-
nlv hv the assertion to that enect
Thev believed the past actions Of the road
had been fair and liberal to Milwaukees
best interests. 1t had certainly been SO IN
tended They invited complaints from all
and promised that if they were well founded
they would grant prompt redress. Inc
basing of rates simply on distance was I'M
nossible and impracticable. The railroads
understood the question, it had slmmered
down to the wish On the part OF some ana
II had been intimated by very few that
rates should be made less to Milwaukee than
70 Chicago. in accordance with the respec-
tive distances to both points. If this prln-
ciple held good in regard to grain rates 10
Milwaukee it would apply as strongly 10
rates from Milwaukee east and south. Ihey
claimed to have become tritie wearled by
the monotonous character Of the entertain
ment, and frankly say that IL the
principles of rates in accordance Win
distance is what the majority OF their
Milwaukee patrons in and out OF Milwau-
kee want while they believe it would very
much hurt Milwaukee's best interests, yet
if they are fully and equally exempt from
the responsibility of the effects OF sucn an
action they will adopt new rates on That
basis. In other words, the railroad officials
do not care to continue the contest II Mil
waukee business men will shoulder the
burden of responsibility. The conference
then ended exactly where it started. The
committee will report to the board OF dlrec-
tors on the 18th. and that body will then
take such action as they may see mt in re-
gard to the question. From expressions
of opinion heard on the floor of the cham
Der it is doubtful whether the directors Will
vote to carry the matter further. Whlle
admitting differential rate from interior
points to Milwaukee and Chicago, they
doubt its practicability and apprehend more
injury to the business interests OF the city
than would offset the gain to be made.

About ScaIpers.

For the first time in their history. the
scalpers admit that the railroads are ter
ribly in earnest in their efforts to put
stop 10 the practice of paying commissions
on ticket sales and will succeed at least far
enough to make the ticket-brokerage bust
ness improbable, and thus force brokers to
turn their attention and employ their capital
and brains in some other enterprise. This
view of the situation is taken by brokers in
st. Paul and elsewhere. and not a few are
preparing to go out of the business entirely.
OF course. there will be scalpers in the land,
but only such as can be implicitly trusted
by general passenger agents not to give
them away will be sustained, but their
methods will have to submit to change
from those now in practice. The number
of offices in st. Paul within the next thirty
days will be very limited.

Nortbern Pacific EarniuTs.

Although the months Of December was
very dull one in railroads the Northern Pa
cifc earnings for that month show an in
crease, which is very encouraging and
shows development of the country through
which the road runs and an increase of its
local business. Part of the increase may,
however, be by reason of the Oregon Navi-
CATION being open during December, 1855,
while in December, 1884, it was so block
AIDED that for about three weeks not a ton
of through business was exchanged between
il and the Northern Pacific. The earnings

Charles A. Anderson, travelling sales

tobacco has gone wrong TO the tune of S765
Wine and WON en- is the cause. Anderson
entered the employ of Mr.. Conrad last
spring. He has been travelling through
Southern Dakota, Chippewa, Eau Claire,
and that country. and has been doing right
well. Up to the middle or latter part of
October it Is believed that he turned over
every cent collected. At least Mr.. Conrad
never had occasion to think otherwise.
Since that time he has learned Of numerous
bills that he collected aud reported unpaid.
He returned on Saturday night. On Sun
day Mr.. Conrad and his boOkkeeper and
Anderson checked up his accounts, when il
was learned that he was short just ST65.
Mr.. Conrad then charged him with being
an embezzler and dad him arrested Yes
terday morning he was arTaigned before
Judge Nethaway. He waived an eXamina-
ton and was held to await the action of the
grand jury in the sum of 81, 900. To Mr.
Conrad yesterday morning he made full
confession. He said thath had no apology
10 make, had made a fool of himself
blamed no one but himself, and would have
TO take the consequences. He stated fur
Their that several months ago he began 10 as
sociate with fast young men, which resulted
in his drinking and getting drunk. This was
followed by assOciating with fast
women, on whom he squandered large sums
of money. On one woman he bowed in
$3.50 in a single week. and spent $3.50 at
Chippewa in two days, and so on.
Anderson was messenger for the Ameri-
can Express company between Saltwater
and st. Paul for three years. He first drove
a wagon for the company here. Mr.. Con-
rad was instrumental i'm getting him APP
pointed messenger and went on his bond
for So. 900. the required sum. Last spring
he offered him position selling cigars at a
still better salary. He placed the utmost
confidence i'm him and helped him in nu-
merous ways. and never suspected that he
was dishonest until the time stated. When
he left the American Express company the
manager wrote 10 Mr.. Conrad saying that
they had gone over all the books and failed
to lind single cent gone, and stated further
that they were sorry to lose him.
Anderson is bright young man Of %
summers, and would make friends any
where. He is married but does not live
with his wife. In the language of McNish
there has been an ice house or a sort of
GOODNESS between them for some time. The
penalty for this crime is from three TO eight
years.
