GOVERNORS GUILT
Established by Row Raised by
His Nephew.

CoFFEEvn.IE, Miss, March IA
row occurred on the Illinois Central
train the other day because the con-
ductor refused to pass Roderick Lowry,
the nephew of Gov. Lowry, on the gov
ernor's family pass. This is evidence
OF the fact that the chief executive of
the state is guilty Of misdemeanor, the
legislature of 1884 having made it IA mis-
demeanor for any legislative, executive,
judicial OF other officer holding posi-
ton of trust under the state to travel on
any railroad without paying absolutely,
and without any guise, or trick, or eva
sion whatever, the same fare required of
passengers generally" 1t seems now
that the governor is holding passes on
all the railroads in the state. The pen
atty for the first Offense against the law
is a fine of s25; for the second, fine of
500 and ten days imprisonment; for
the third, fine of 500 and thirty days
imprisonment. The railroad is liable to
a fine of $1,000 Great interest is mani
tested in the matter and further devel-
Opments are anXiously awaited.

LONDON, March esterday's
meeting-by courtesy called fight
between Sullivan and Mitchell has been
widely and loudly discussed to-day.
Hundreds of men who were led by his
wonderful physique, grandiOSe air and
boastful words to lay their money on
Sullivan, now look at him through the
small end of the telescope, and the fact
is as plain as the sun at MONDAY that he
can never again hold up his head in
London without the stimulation of
gall in greater quantity than the ordi-
nary human body can contain. 1t
is pity that it should be
said, but it is the almost
unanimous opinion among all classes
that the American champion of cham
pions is now relegated to the ranks of
ordinary pugs, and must henceforth
seek engagements, not on his own terms,
but on the terms stipulated by such
men as may think it worth while to
fight him.
ARRESTED.
PARIS. March n.-Sullivan and Nit
chell and thirty spectators Of the fight
were arrest by gendarmes on leaving
the field and imprisoned at Senlis. The
spectators were soon released, but the
principals were kept in custody until
midnight Sunday, when they were re-
leased, and will arrive in London Mon
day.

BASE BALL AT BOSTON,

Special Correspondence of the Globe.
Boston, Mass, March 9.-The snow
is rapidly disappearing from this sec
ton of the country, and, notwithstand-
ing the weather is still very cold, every
one is beginning to take an interest in
base ball. The Boston people are the
greatest lovers of the national game
have ever seen, but they are peculiar.
They don't waste much time in talk,
but act when action is necessary. The
great triumvirate of the home league
club is not in good standing with the
public. The latter think ''the great
three" are too slow, and think more of
their own pockets than the demands of
the people. The present dissatisfaction
grew out of Messrs. Soden, Billings and
Conant permitting New York, Chicago
and other clubs to come right into their
own territory and take their pick of the
promising young talent developed last
season. The engagement, however, of
Sowders, st. Paul's great pitcher, has
in a measure at0ned for past dla

ARTHUR STILL CONFIDENT.
The Chief OF the Brotherhood
Continues to Talk Cheerfully.

CHICAGO, March 11.-Chief Arthur
was taking his Sunday rest this after
noon, apparently cool, collected and
happy, when interrupted by reporter
with the query:
say of the decision rendered by the 1ail-
road commissioners of Iowa?"
II think the decision OF the Iowa COM
missioners has been eminently fair and
impartial" was the reply. Then he
added, after a moments pause: 81 also
believe that the letter of Gov. Larrabee,
of Iowa, to President Perkins, of the
Burlington, will be commended by the
business and travelling public, not only
in Iowa but throughout the county. The
governor of Iowa, after thorough in
VestigatiOn, has found that there is
something to arbitrate-the Burlington
officials to the contrary nOtwithstand-
ing-and has advised the president
of the O. accordingly.
''As to the situation having been mar
rOwed down to game of freeZe-Out,"
continued Mr.. Arthur, celebrating as
he spoke, lit remains tosbe seen how
long the directors and stockholders will
sustain the present bankrupt policy Of
the Burlington-a bankrupt policy with
no sufficient cause. For our part, we
are confident that the Brother
hood can stand it longer than
the owners of the road will be will
ing to sanction. Our advices are that
but 33 per cent of the usual local bust
ness is being done and no through bus
mess. The Burlington members of the
Brotherhood will be sustained and sup
ported by the entire organization just
as long as the men wish or require help,
and that is certainly longer than the
O. can go without through freight or
fast passenger trains
mot single man of the brotherhood
has deserted" said the chief with evil
dent pride, land predict that they will
not. A clause in our rules demands the
dismissal of any engineer found intoxi-
Gated, whether on OF off duty and thath
be reported to the officers of the road as
an unsafe man to employ. Another
clause provides that when man applies
for membership he must be examined
by a committee of three from the lodge
he applies to, and unless he is an engi-
neer of one or more years practical eX-
perience, not addicted to the use of i'll
toXicating liquors, and man of other
wise good character, he will not be ac-
cepted. During the past fourteen years
not single brotherhood engineer has
ever deserted his engine without using
every possible precaution to save the
lives of his passengers, and the public
well knows how many have died at their
posts of duty. l attribute this remark
able record to the fact that these men
are, and must be, sober, skilled, moral,
intelligent men, Ofnerve and principle.
In all this the great public has been ben
Il L, ~ tive ,fx,f
during the life of the organization. [
have only to say that the nerve of these
men has and will be demonstrated in

New YORK. March 1.-THE Herald
publishes in advance chapter of Rev.
Henry Ward Beecher'S biography
touching on the famous scandal. Mr..
Beechea makes out an apparent case OF
every pressure was brought upon him
to extOrt money, that he yielded OH ac-
count of sympathy with TiltOn until he
became convinced that his feelings
were being imposed on, when he stopped
and the suit followed. He paints Moul-
ton in the blacklist colOrs, and says sig
nifcantly: Everybody in the business
seems to have had copies of everything

against Tilton's family relations was in
advising separation.

Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, March 11.-Within the next
twenty-four hours there will be joint
conference III this city of the grievance
committees of every road lead eastward
from Chicago. Telegraph orders to this
effect were sent out from the brother
hood headquarters late last night, and
the dispatches received to-day indicate
that the response will be general. The
conference has been called to consider
the existing condition of affairs and the
steps, if any, that should be taken by
the men of the Eastern roads to aid the
Burlington strikers. The decision of
Judge Gresham in the Wabash case
will naturally have much to do
in deciding the question. but
there is very strong feeling
that conservative views will obtain,
and that no radical action will
be resolved upon. Conversations with
several of the Panhandle, Lake Shore
and Fort Wayne men who came in this
afternoon indicate that they are strongly
inclined to the opinion that the Bur
lington strikers can be more effectually
aided in other directions than by gen.
eral strike. At the same time the veXed
question of the handling of Burlington
freight by other roads remains unset
tied, and it is recognized that the
ISSUE MUST BE MET
before many days. There are very good
grounds for the statement that. in the
event of the Wabash case being decided
in favor Of the Burlington, the latter
road will take proceedings against every
other road that declines to eX-
change traffic, commencing with the
Rock Island, and in that event
even the conservative elements of the
brOtherhoodS may be compelled to ac-
QuieSce in radical measures in order to
save the organization from openly con-
ceding their defeat. 1t is pretty GER
tain, at any rate, that the coming week
will see important developments in one
direction OF another. Either the men
or the road will make advances leading
up to settlement or'the strike will be
extended, or the trouble will be left in
definitely in Statu quo and the strikers
put upon the pay roll of the brother
hood until something turns up. Even
the most enthusiastic Burlington men
now concede that all the sensational
features of the trouble have dlsap-
peared and that, If nothing is done to
restore the previous white heat of in
terest, the .'outs" will be compelled to
look upon the cause as lost.
