THE RAILROAD SALE.

The sale of the Western Division of
the Florida Railway and Navigation sys-
tenn TO w. Bayard Cutting, at Jackson
vile, yesterday, will be a relief to the
business men of Florida. Fears have
been entertained that it would fall into
the hands of the Plant system. The re-
cent combination between the Georgia
Central and the Plant system looked
ominous for the interests of Florida. 1t
looked as though the Western Division
of the Florida Railway and Navigation
division, the former Florida Central
and Western road, would fall into
the hands of the Plant System and III. b.
Plant would be virtually dictator in
Florida transportation. Jacksonville
would be the worst sufferer, as all ave-
as one. All roads entering or to enter
Florida would be at the mercy of the Sa-
wanna, Florida and Western road and
would be obliged to submit to its dicta-
ton or rather to the DEGREES of the sys-
tenn of which it was part. Such were
the fears that lent interest to yesterdays
sale at Jacksonville.
1t was understood that III. B. Plant
owned the "A'' bonds of the Florida
Central and Western. The holders of
the "B" bonds, however, had the option
of purchasing these senior securities.
Mr.. Cutting controlled majority of the
"B' bonds it now appears, and last We'd
nesday the IA bonds were turned over
to him, the requisite sum of money hav-
ing been deposited. The matter-of-
course result was the sale of the road
and its branches and all the appurte-
nances to Mr.. Cutting.
This is taken to mean the improve
ment of the road The facility it offers
as an entrance into Florida will make
the line desirable one as a part of some
one of the great systems heading toward
Florida, and we may expect to see it
taken in out of the cold Release from
the dictation of the Savannah, Florida
and Western may well cause the people
of Jacksonville to rejoice.
The effect of this sale on Palatka's bust
ness interests cannot be harmful The
Macon road, when it is built, will give
us connections North and East as valua-
BILE as any Jacksonville has and put us
on par with that city in the COMPETE
ton for the trade of the section of Flor
ida to the East and West and Southwark
OF us. We have assurances that nothing
can prevent the building of that road.
While Jacksonville's railroad facilities
will doubtless be increased in the near
future, those of Palatka will be re-cre-
ated in large measure until this city
becomes one of the most promising in
manufacturing.

INTERLACHEN, February 6.
At the meeting of the Board of Trade
Saturday evening, the constitution and
bylaws We're adopted, and are, with
but few changes, the same as the
Board of Ira lie of Palatka The cleo
ton of officers being next in order, Mr.
G. r. Knapp was elected president, and
Lott Allen, Esq. vice president. The
Board of Governors is as follows: Geo.
w. Hastings, F. H. Williams, c. A.
Brush, Thos. ID. Hubbard and DIR. o. S.
Whip.
The report of the advertising commit
tee was heard through its chairman, Mr.
A. L. Ross, and was laid over until the
next meeting, when it will be acted
upon. 1t being too late in the season to
get out anything very lengthy, book or
pamphlet, the probabilities are that a
folder will be gotten out and used with
the pamphlets of the Interlachen Winter
Resort Company and Mr.. c.. R. Knapp
for this year. The Board of Trade
promises to be a good, live, go-ahead
body and will do much to bring our
beautiful little town before the public.
This warm, damp weather is bringing
out the new growth on the orange trees

it had over one hundred and fifty.

ing few days at Hotel InterIachen.
The Stock place was sold Saturday
but che name of the purchaser is I'M
known. Mr. Stock went to Iowa to take
a farm there and was there during the
blizzard. Immediately after the biz
zard he wrote his sons to be in no hurry
to come North, and to add six hundred
dollars to the price of the farm here
near Interlachen.
Preparations are being made to enter
tain the Congregational State Confer
ence which meets at this place Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday of this week.
Delegates from all over the State are ex-
pected and an interesting programme
has been prepared. A social for the del
egates will be held at Hotel Interlachen
on Wednesday from 4:30 to Z D. IN. at
which refreshments will be served and
the delegates and pastors of the churches
over the State will have an opportunity
to become acquainted with each other.

Wholesale Infanticide.
New York Star


An extraordinary case of wholesale
infanticide is reported by the hungarian
Journals. 1t appears that peasant wo-
man of Csoka, wishing to become a
member of the religious sect called Naz-
arenes, in accordance with their rule re-
quiring neophytes to make full confess
sion, embracing the entire past life, made
the following avowal:
Il have had eight children and have
killed them all. My first born. son
named Victor, who saw the light in 1874,
was four months old when he died. An
other, born in 1870, but whose name |
have forgotten, ceased to live after few
days. On February 20, 1880, she twins,
Pierre and Rosa, were born. | killed
them a week after their birth. Ny
daughter, JulIana. who came into the
world April IL, 1881, died two days af-
terward. Agnes, born March 90, 1882,
only lived few days. On May ), 1888,
[ again had twins. One was born dead
and killed the other, Piroska. month
after its birth. The last one. Peter, born
May 80. 1884, pc ished two days after
his birth. All my children were pois-
oned by me with decoction of poppy
seed. | will add that they were all bap-
TIED. | didn't want any children. My
husband knew nothing of what | had
done. Not being on good terms with
him, | wished to provoke him.
The NaZarenes took Eva Micsik (the
name of their convert) before the judges
of the tribunal of Toersek-Kaniaza, be-
fore whom she repeated her confession.
The husband swore that his wife had of
late years fallen into a melancholy con-
dition, and made several attempts to
commit suicide. Eva was then placed
under arrest and judicial investigation
begun AT latest accounts the dates of
birth given by the woman had been YER
flied, and the bodies of the children
were alb out to be exhumed.

Pennsylvania and Protection.
Philadelphia Times.

Pennsylvania is more directly inter
ested IN the maintenance of a wise pro-
tective policy than any other State in the
Union, and it most becomes Pennsylva-
MIA protectionists to deal justly with the
great question of protecting our diversi-
fled labor, There would be little peril to
protection if it was assailed only by its
open foes: but there is the gravest peril
to protection in the household of its
friends.
Both the great parties of the country
are solemnly pledged to tariff revision
and revenue reduction. Those pledges
were given nearly four years ago, but as
yet they have not been fulfilled. The
Democrats We're bedeviled by free trade
theorists and industrial destructionists.
and the conf let of faction defeated
Democratic tariff revision. while the Re
publicans, forgetful of their positive
pledges TO the people, opposed all tariff
provision as party policy. They as
sumed that because the present protec-
tive duties were necessity when the
war exhausted the resources of the ma
ton, they can be maintained now ON
party grounds. and they blindly disre-
gard the rapidly growing demand of
their own people for relief from oppres-
sive taxation.
From every Republican State of the
Union, with the single exception of
Pennsylvania, is now heard imperative
Republican appeals for tariff reduction;
and Pennsylvania is to-day doing more
injury to the cause of protection, by in
sisting upon the continuance of oppres-
sive and monopoly customs duties, than
all the free trade destructiorists of the
country could do by direct assaults If
there are those who doubt it. let them
read the sober appeal of the Republican
party, given in another column, from
the Iowa State Register. 1t is not free
trade journal; on the contrary, it is
positive protection journal, and the
| ahlest and most influential party organ
OF the State. 1t repeats the admonition
