polling the democratic papers to print

refused to longer submit and SO the mat

The Iowa Legislature.

DEs MONIES, Ia, Feb. About fifty rail-
road employees, representing nearly all the
roads in Iowa, We're before the senate railway
committee last night until 1 o'clock giving
testimony against the &c fare and the lower
ing of freight rates. The glst of the employees
argument was that either would operate
against the employees rather than the stock
holders. Senators Young and Price each re-
ceived letters from responsible men residing
ON the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific and
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy routes saying
that employees were made to sign rcmon-
slrances under compulsion. The senate is
being deluged with such remonstrances.
Rev. Ida G. Hutton opened the senate with
prayer to-day, the first instance in the history
of the world of such Office being performed
by u woman.
A petition was presented by Mr.. Young
from citizens of Audubon county favoring the

The Railroads in Iowa.

BURLINGTON, Feb. 4.--The following, ad-
dressed to the representatives of this county
in the state legislature, is being circulated
throughout the city and county and almost
universally signed by prominent citizens of
both political parties: The undersigned, clti-
zens Of Des Moines county, represent that
there is not, to our knowledge,
any general agitation or demand among
the people of this country for reduction in
the passenger fares upon railroads. While the
nominal local rate is three cents per mile, the
average actual rate lowing to liberal excur
sion and Communication rates and low fares on
through business) is much less. In the effect
of a forced reduction there would be fewer
trains, slower time and poorer accommoda-
tions generally. We do not think public
opinions would sustain you in voting for such
reduction. The railroads represent great
public interest in this county, and the people
are not hostile to them. Radical legislation
against them it not demanded and will not be
approved
There is no doubt that this petition speaks
the sentiments of nine-tenths of the people Of

sPOTTERs NEATLY CAUGHT.
Corrupt Iowa Constablcs Fail Into a
Well Laid Tran.

DEs MoISEs, Ia, Feb. 4.-[Special Telc-
gram to the BEE. There was lively SEN
saton in prohibition circles tonight result
ing in the arrest Of some of the principal
''searchcrs' on charges of bribery. A few
days ago officers seized the stock of McCor-
mick & Co, wholesale liquor dealers, on
charge of violating their permits. The
officers who made the charge were Consta-
bles Pierce Potts and Hamilton, the trio
who have had most to do with searching
saloons and enforcing prohibition. It is re-
ported they went to the dealers and offered,
for IA consideration, to refuse to prosecute.
The liquor men concluded TO set trap for
them and so made an appointment for this
evening, taking with them a number of
marked bills. The constables walked into
the trap and took the Doodle, but had hardly
left the house before warrants were sworn
out for their arrest. Potts and Hamilton
were soon arrested and officers are now
searching for Pierce, who is the leader of the
gang. There is much excitement over these
arrests, as temperance people have been
scandalzed for long time by the way these
fellows have been enforcing the law for
revenue only. The stock of liquors belong
ing to Mccormick & Co. has been released
and it is probable that the other dealers will
fare the same way.

the fire with vigor, but drew back The Of
fccrs marched Oft again along the railroad,
through the bridge and down TO the Indian
ridge breaker, where they are quartercd in
offices. Part Of the mob fol-
lowed and bcsieged them there, but made
no attack. After the shooting had been
done, the chief burgess, with u few
specials and members of the strikers advis-
ory board, appeared on the scene and sue
ceeded in getting the majority of the crowd,
not the combative part though 10 dispense TO
their homes and temporary peace was OBJ
tanned.
The worst element Of the Poles however,
remained near the Indian ridge mine waiting
for chance to get at the officers
who remained inside. About 8 80 p. III. four
carloads Of coal and iron police
came to town over the Reading road from
Mahonoy Plane and other points and the
train was run past the depot and under the
coal chutes of the Indian ridge breaker where
they remained. 1t is rumored that the mob
intend visiting the houses of the men work
ing at Kelley run during the
night and terrorzing them there.
How much truth there is in that
remains to be seen. The most serious
trouble is feared on Monday when the
Kelley run and William Penn attempt to
resume operations. Bloody work may then
be looked for if the strikers threats are u
fair gauge of their intentions. The Poles
are drinking all the liquor they can get. and
printing themselves for any conceivable
mischief.

A good crowd assembled in the hall above

wrestling match between H. j. Clarke and

test was for $50 aside, side holds, best two
falls in three, three points down to consti-
tute fall. Mr.. Patsy F'alon otfciated as
referee The men appeared on the carpet
promptly at 10 O'Clock, with Clarke a favor
itc in the betting. After fierce struggle of
three minutes and fifty seconds duration,
Williams broke his hold and the fall was de
cided in favor of Clarke. After rest of ten
minutes the gladiators again entered the ring,
and while the struggle was of the liveiest
and most stubborn description, Clarke again
proved his superiority by gaming clean fall
The referee awarded the bout and match
to Clarke amid the cheers of his numerous
admirers, and Immediately aftcrward the
crowd dispersed
