A Social Sensation.

The most startling social sensation that
has occurred in ST. Louis Mo, for years
was revealed 10 the public when it was an
nounced that Henry w. Moore, managing
editor of the Post-Dispatch, and tho wife of
John w Norton, manager OF tho Grand
opera house and the Olympic theater, left
the city together. 1t appears that the
couple have been unduly intimate forever
year. The evening before the elOpement
attempted TO shoot Moore, but was disarm-
ed by friend. Mrs. Norton removed her
money and other valuablcs, from "a safe de-
posit company. amounting TO about 50, 900,
and at 10 O'Clock ct night she and Moore
left the city in a carriage! Moore has q

tou Springs. The clippers, are nGv under

THE Burlington evidently means to in
s~ratiate itself with other roads by con
~senting to advance rates in COMMON will
other western lines on the 26th instant
Last Monday the general freight agents o
western and northwestern roads had a con
ference in Chicago, from which the BurIing'
ton then held aloOf, at which a resolution
to the above effect was arrived 1T to re.
store freight rates throughout their terri
tory to tariffs in effect prior to the begin
ming of the rate war. The adhesion of the
Burlington will facilitate the accomplish.
ment OF the move. as several roads wanted
special privileges which the action Of the
Burlington will remove an excuse for.
Shippers, however, would rather SEE the
Burlington maintain its attitude of indie,
pendence toward the roads and compro-
mise with the Brotherhood OF Locomotive
Engineers.
Butte semi-weekly miner. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1886-1890, 1888-03-21

The action OF the men on the Santa Fe
road is not difficult OF comprehension. At
the recent meeting in Chicago OF grievance
committee chairlnen OF all the roads, 1t
was resolved hat the Brotherhood men
upon any system in the country could or
der q strike whenever they saw fit without
consulting the grand officers OF the road.
The men on the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe claim that this road has been &C.
cretly handling Burlington freight. It is
also stated that a good deal OF the stock
of both roads is held by the same parties.
Therefore, what effects both roads hits the
same stockholders twice. There are also
said to be grievances on the Santa Fe road
similar to those protested against on the
Burlington. The "plain statement sent
out from Topeka by the Associated Press
must be taken with h large grain OF salt.
1t is inspired. The Associated Press is
always ready to champion the cause OF
corporations, and the statement was care
fully prepared for effect. From the rumors
that the Brotherhood men on other roads
will follow suit unless the Burlington diff
Guilty is adjusted, and quit work, it seems
the Brotherhood place great faith in a
gradual tie-up as an effective lever on the
Burlington. A tie-up on the Union Pacific
will seriously affect Butte. Everyone here
knows what a stoppage OF the coal supply
means.

WILL IT BE G~ENERALe

1t looks very much as though the Brother
hood were prepared to make good their
promise, of which they gave due notice SO
that travellers and shippers could avail
themselves in time, to quit work OF every
railroad in the country on which they are
employed by the 31st OF this month unless
their grievance with the Burlington is ad
justed by then. 1t is supposed that the
Inconvenience caused to the IN OF
the country by such a curse would bring
popular pressure to bear on the Burlington
management so hat the latter would be
compelled to come to terms with its engin-
GERS. But the Burlington is said to be get
ting in better condition all the time. Should
a general feeling of WEAKNESS happen to
seize all the Brotherhood engineers stimuli
t%aneously on the last day Of the month
and they should lay off on every road in
the country. the Burlington would be
ready to 90 on with all the local business it
could take while business on most Of the
other roads would be s%tagnated. In this
way the Burlington would be benefited by
the general paralysis Of the other rail-
roads.

THERE is said to be some opposition to
reincorporation and enlargement OF the
limits developing itself. Some people can
not see that laying ont a dollar on i'm
proven'ents frequently brings in two. There
will undoubtedly be a great influx of pros
pcrity to Butte this year. Two railroads
nre destined to come in from the north.
Several large mining concerns will start up
again and the number of lcasors this war
promises TO discount any previous exper.
fence. There will therefore come a boom
10 Butte. in order to take advantage Of
it and retain it's good effects the city must
he severed, it's streets graded and sidewalks
must be universal instead of intermittent.
Thcse and the other improvements needed
cannot be accomplished without r~eincor-
porntiun and enlargement OF the limits,
ard when accomplished will immensely
enhance the values OF property all over.
