TIE READING CASE,
The Court Refuses the OTcr to Show
Conspiracy,

The Court Refuses tho Oner to Show
Conspiracy,
PHILADELPHIA, Sept, 2,-This morning
Judge McKsunau's decision in the Read
Ing Railway case was announced, Some
days since franklin B, GowRn, Of tho
Reading Road, offered to show before the
mastsr in the equity proceedings that
conspiracy existed between Drexel, Nor
4 Company, the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company and other trunk railway lines,
and that the suit instituted for the puf.
pose OF having the Reading Road sold un-
der foreclosure Of q mortgage was simply
o sham to embarass the road. He also OF,
fsred to show that the owner Of the bonds
upon which the suit was brought was
only figure head, and had been
given the bonds by Drexel, Morgan 4
90. He called several witnesses, but they
declined 10 answer the questions under
the advice OF counsel, and Mr., GoWen ap-
piled to Court for q ruling as 10 whether
tho questions were or were not proper.
The case was argued In Pittsburgh last
week and this morning the decision was
received by mail, The Court holds the
offer made by Mr.. Gowen to be only q re-
newal Of q former application properly
disposed Of by the Judge who then de.
clded 1t. In the judgment Of the Court
the contested evidence is impertinent to
the fundamental issue, and therefore in
admissible. The Court cannot see how
the facts set forth in the second offer can
Condone tho fault OF the mortgagor or arc
responsible In any way to the allegation
Of such default in the bill, which Is
especially admitted In the answer with.
out qualification. The offer is therefore
refused,
The refusal OF the court to compel the
witness to answer Mr.. Gowen's formu-
lated question, oCCasioned a considerable
amount OF talk on the streets, and es-
peClally in financial circles. II was ex.
peCted by many that Mr.. Gowen would
be given full liberty to insert his probe,
and that some interesting developments
would follow. Tho next move Of the gen.
tlemen will be watched witn interest.

Without Precedent.
The Inhabitants Still Camping. Out

CHARLEsfoN, S. O., Sept, 2,--The last
earthquake shock was experienced here at
1850 last night, since which time there
have been no vibrations. The people are
Just beginning to pick up courage to come
out. Efforts are being made to clear
paths through the streets for the passage
OF vehicles and pedestrians, and the city
once more beglns to show come signs Of
lie, For two long days and nights OF
horror, women and children have been
camping out in the parks and squares.
The earthquake has swept over the city
like bosom OF destruction, and Charles,
ton Is laid down in the dust, 1t Is impos-
sible to give any correct estimate OF the
loss Of lie and property for the two days
and nights, The people have done nothing
but huddle on the squares, small detached
reliGf parties going on to dig out the dead
from the debris or suCCor the wounded.
Tho first systemized effort to get at the
facts is now making. The list OF dead re-
cognized and reported this morning at this
time III A. NJ ioots up 10, and the search
has only commenced. The list OF wound

seven.eighths OF the houses and public
buildings in the city are either damaged

War Policy OF German LIbcrnls.

BERLIN, Sept. 2,-The North German
Gasette, referring TO the Ultramontane and
Liberal press regarding Prince Alexander,
says: Germany, unless she forthwith
declared war against Russia, could only
protest against any further interference
with Alexander, or, perhaps, against Rus.
ella taking further steps In the direction Of
Oonstantinople. Russia would energeti.
cally repel the insinuation OF such an in.
tention, and GermAny's friendly relations
with Russia would be ended. It must be
remembered that war would be the lovi.
cal development oi such situation. No.
body doubts that the Ultramontane and
Liberal policy is iraught with imminent
danger In Germany. One must either
stand to the policy OF the Government or
plunge Of Empire into interminable war.
We hear that the commercial convention
between Germany and Spain has been
signed and that the Reichstag will soon
be summoned TO ratify 1t. Opportunity
will then be afforded TO stigmatlzs before
the country the reckless frivolity OF the
Empires Toes who attempt to handle ita
foreign politics."

A POSTMASTER MISSING,
The Sensation Which Is AgItatIng the VII
lage OF CopOpa,


CoPoPA, o., Sept 2.-This little town,
eight miles west Of Berea, is all excite
ment over the report that R, l, Bastard,
postmaster and prominent business man,
had run away from home, leaving wife
and family OF children behind him. The
following are the facts: Bastard, besides
being postmaster, has been Tor long
time, in company with his father, engaged
In the general merchandise business here,
The firm built up q large trade, and was
well known throughout this section. Be-
aldes his wife, Bastard has several fine
children, He left home Monday last, say
ing to some he was going east, and to
others west, but at the present time moth
Ing Is known Rs TO his whereabouts, As
usual in such cases, there is woman"
at the bottom, OF the affair, 1t ia stated
that about o year ago young lady otyery
prepossessing appearance, whose home
Is In StTongsville, this county, was engaged
by Bastard TO clerk In the store. BastaTd's
wife is said 10 have become impressed
with the idea that the pretty young clerk
was stealing the affections et her husband,
AS time went on this idea became
stronger, until finally 1t became noised
about and at last created quite public
scandal, At that time the matter was
hushed and confined to the immediate
neighborhOod, Young Bastard took the
matter so much 10 heart that 1t Ia claimed
he began drinking pretty hard, 1t seems
time failed 10 heal up the matter entirely,
or else Bastard gave his wife further
cause to doubt his fidelity. At any ratio
the affair has broken out with renewed
vlgor, and has eliminated in Baslard's
leaving home as above related aud as al
legged, without in any way informing his
family where he was going. Bastard's
father, q welI'known and respected
citizen Of Copopa, has taken sides
with his sons wife, and is said
to be very Indignant at his son.
Opinion differs as to whether Bastard
has gone for good, Some think he will
be back In few days at most. 1t Is
learned that the pretty clerk in question
left Tor the West about week ago, and
this gives color TO the story that Bastard
left for good. 1t is to bs hoped that he
will speedily return and and satisfactorily
account for his absence. He is q young
man OF uncommon abilities, wealthy, and
very highly connected, and has always
enjoyed the respect OF the community in
which he lived.
His departure Is the talk of the whole
country for miles about Copops, and many
amusing stories are told about the whole
affair. II Is TO his credit that he is not
short in bis accounts as postmaster 1t is
hard to conjecture why man in his con.
dltion should be led into such foolish
affair.
