The vandalia-Dayson Deal.

To tie Editor Of the indianapolis Journal.
/ refer to the c.. h g. d. and Vandalia case;
the complaint in which and answer thereto,
were recently published, merely as matter of
figures. Since thu deal was made doubt
many, like myself, have been curious to know
the price per share which it was based-in-
formation, it is evident from the conflicting
nature of the several statements-not to be had
until the case ia ventilated in the courts. The
c.. II. & D. road. in its com plant, claims that
500 per share. 200 per cent, par val ne being
$50. was the limit Ives. trustee. was authoriz-
ed to pay. and that he bought II, 160 shares for
SLIGO, 900, or 800 per share.
Mr.. McKeen, in his reply, does not give the
rate per share agreed upon, but quotes the con-
tract showing the total sum covering the trans
action:
Cash payment $3o eoo
Cash payment OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES 659,3oO
From S Which deductins the sum he specifies 'o0'0o
paid for T. H. s. l.. stock----------.- 111,15O
This amount he states was for IL. 160 shares
1.-THE specific lot referred to in the com
plaint) and for nothing else whatever That
would show $129. 20 and a fraction, per share
price odd enough to indicate that the block
might have been divided. Taking the division
the contract suggests $50 shares con trolled by
Mr.. Mckeen and 2.6OO shares ne engaged 10
procure, if the g. $50 were counted at 800, the
$500 would average 1927 80. This latter figure
is hardly credible. Indeed, the indications
that the 2, 600 shares were put in at 800
The contract provides for forfeiture OF 5000
per share if they were not furnished, and the
forfeit is usually double the selling price
Again. the Journal published letter purport-
ing TO be from friend of Mr.. McKeen and .
former large stakeholder, to the effect that he
had sold his shares at $62 so, and 800 per share
a resale already made shows so fair mar
gin Of profit to fix that the probable limit
Take, then, 900 shares at 500 and the $500
shares would average $l38 70 and fraction
also an odd price x.

A RIGHTEOUS CLAIM.
New Orleans Chronicle. I

New Orleans Chronicle.l
The bill introduced by Congress-
man Robertson. on Monday, the
30th ult, to douate to the Florida
parishes all the public lands lying
in their borders, is but q just recog-
milton of . righteous claim. The
people Of those parishes conquered
that territory from Spain in 1910
and held possession of it. The
United States then came in and OK.
tended its jurisdiction over it with
out . shadow Of right. and has sold
large bodies Of these lands to the
very people who owned it by right
Of conquest.
That it should return to those
people the lands that remain I'M
sold. and indemnify them for all
sold. is but common Justice.
It is true that the United States
claimed this territory previous to
the conquest by the people. bu:
Spain also claimed it and held it,
and the United States never at
to enforce it's claims. The
people fought for it and won it,
driving the Spaniards out.
The descendants OF the brave men
who conquered this territory ask
as individuals. but only de-
sire that the lands won by the gal
|antry of their ancestors be made
public to all the present inhabitants
of the region. It is o liberal and
request. and the Gov
owes it to its own dignity
o grantit.

it is proposed to form. To this end

WILL THE RAILROAD BE
EXTENDED?

We have frequently been asked
the above question by persons from
the interior OF the parish. We do
not know positively, but we believe
this desirable result could be &C.
complished if the proper encourage
mont and assistance were given.
The citizens of Covingtou, last
year. voted five mill special tax on
their property, for ten years, to Sc
cure and assist in the building of a
railroad to our town. And now
that the railroad has been com.
pleted. there has been q very de-
cided advance in the value of real
estate. while the great convenience
of rapid transit to and from the
city. and between the intermediate
points. is already being appreciated.
and people are beginning to won
der chow We ever got along with
out Q railroad"
If the citizens Of the parish want
to have the railroad extended
through their region, they can
secure it by doing as the
citizens Of Covington have done.
and vote slight tax to aid in its
construction. A special election
would have to be called for this pur-
pose through petition to the Police
Jury. and the railroad company
consulted in the matter. Such an
extension would certainly enhance

CORMORANT FISHING.

In China tame cormorants web
footed sea birds) are trained to fish
for their masters. Rov. Justus Doc
little thus Describes the process OF
cormorant fishing:
The fisherman who has charge Of
tie cormorants stands upon q raft
OF bamboo poles, very light and
propelled by . paddle. A basket il
placed on it TO contain the fish.
Each raft has three or four cor
morants connected with it.
The fisherman, when he wishes to
make a cormorant fish, pushes or
throws it off the raft into the water.
If it is not disposed at once to dive
and seek for feb. he sometimes
strikes it. 50 that it is glad 10 dive
and get out of his reach.
When it has caught . fish it rises
to the surface. holding it in its
mouth. and apparently trying to
swallow it. A string tied loosely
around its Eeck, or q metallic ring,
effectually prevents swallowing. ex-
cept. perhaps, in the case of very
small fish. 1t usually swims direct
for the raft. Tie fisherman, when
near enough, dextsrouslJ passes .
net-like bag. fastened to the end of
a pole. over the two. and draws
them both on the raft. He then
forces the fish from the grasp of the
bird, and. as if to reward the latter
for its success, gives it a mouthful
of food, which it is enabled to swal- |
low, on his raising the ring from
the lower part of its neck. The
bird. if apparently tired out. is al
lowed to rest awhile on the raft, and |
then it is pushed of again into the
water. and made to dive and hunt |
for fish as before.
Sometimes one bird will hasten |
to the assistance Of another which |
has caught q large fish which he
may be unable to master. The
bird will help his comrade to carry
Ills prize to the raft. aud then Hy
back aud resume its own labors,
