Meetinu of Enuineers.

ST. Louis, Dec, 27.-B. W. Vedder,
chairman of the grievance committee of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
of the Gould system, arrived in St. Louis
this morning. Il am on my way to
Chicago" said Vedder to an Associated
Press reporter, where a large and very
important meeting of representatives of
the order will convene to morrow morn
ing. 1t has been deemed desirable to
form a closer union between the a. gineers
operating on lines west of the Mississippi
and to establish closer relations. For this
purpose the meeting was called and the
officers OF the different systems west OF
the Mississippi between the British and
Mexican lines will be present as well as
representatives from many lodges. Abouc
$50 delegates, representing over 10000
engineers. will be present. This will be
the first meeting including engineers on
all Western lines and excluding others.
Chief Arthur will be present and we all
hope aud expect that the meeting will be
very beneficial to the order

The Anarchists Suit.

CHICAGO, Dec, 27.-The application
on behalf of the anarchistic Arbeiter
Bund for an injunction restraining the
police authorities from preventing their
meetings was argued before the master in
chancery to-day. On behalf OF the bund
1t was contended that it was u peaceful
organization whose sole aim was the
amelioration of the condition of the hu-
man race and that the action of the
police in forbidding them to meet and in
closing halls against them was in open vic.
lation of their constitutional rights as citi-
zens of the republic. On behalf of the
city 1t was argued that the bund as a body
was made of men opposed to the opera
ton Of all laws; that the propagation of
their theories tended to public disorder,
rendering life and property insecure.
When the arguments we're concluded
the master reserved his decision, remark
ing that he would announce the day
when his recommendations will be made
known.

What The Coast Would Like.

CHICAGO, Dec. Ex-senator Jones of
Nevada was here last night on his way to
Washington. He said to a reporter;
Although the Pacific coast is hardly SAN
guine enough to expect representation in
the cabinet, we would be pleased to fur.
nlsh a man for the secretaryship of the
interior. We transact so much land bus.
mess in our country that it is only fair
that this official should should be selected
from the far West. We are strongly in
favor OF a secretary of the treasury who
advocates more coinage"
Of the alleged atrocities purported to
have been committed by the Alaska Fur
company, he says: Those stories have
not a particle of truth in them as far as
the outrage part is concerned. They are
originated by jealous people who are the
sworn enemies of the Alaska Fur compa-
ny, and do not want to see their lease re
newed in $780,"

uyer.omolous Officials.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 27.-The briga-
tine Josefa from Montego bay, Jamaica,
brings news of an outrage suffered at the
hands of the Spanish government. While
dischGrging her cargo on her outward
trip from New York to Arroyo, Porto
Rico, tina Spanish custom officials noticed
twenty packages of corn starch marked
on the vessels manifest as missing. The
vessel was seized by the Spanish author
tiles and held until a fine of $4,000 was
paid. The value of the goods did not ex-
coed $50. The master and crew were
forced to suffer many %indignities at the
hands of the governor OF the island and
the officials under his authority.
The authorities offered to settle the
matter if the captain of the vessel could
satisfactorily explain the whereabouts of
the missing packages. After the fine had
been paid it was ascertained tina. the
missing goods had been delivered by mis-
take on board the ship Josephus, which
lay next to the Josefa in New York, but
were placed in the Josefa's mani.
fest. An explanation was made TO
the Spanish authorities and the return OF
the fine requested but refused. The own
ers filed a complaint against the Spanish
government with Secretary Bayard. 1t
will be urged that the wal ships Galeua
and Yantic be ordered to continue their
cruise to Porto Rico and summary secure

Youthful Depraylty In Indiana.

,us living in a very little time. Then
came the climax. Selecting as her victim
Mills S. Reeves, aged nearly 70 wears,
and a most reputable citizen, she caused
his arrest on a charge of illegitimate par
entage and then offered to compromise
the case for cash. Investigation proved
that she had no grounds for filing such a
complaint. She was indicted, convicted
and sentenced to the female reformatory.
Two school boys OF this neighborhood,
Wordy Plat and Edward Moore, neither
of whom was II years of age, and both
members of highly respectable families,
concluded to go on a lark" Finding a
very valuable horse and buggy conyen-
iently within their reach, they took pos
session Of the rig and started out. After
travelling around the country for two DAYS
they attempted to sell the outfit for $50,
when they were arrested, broke down and
confessed. They will have a chance,
during the next SIX years, to learn better
ways at the state reform school.

Swindiing the Government.

LONG ISLAND CRY, N. Y. Dec. 81
Inspectors of the bureau of animal indus
try of the United States have unearthed
a novel swindling scheme. 1t has. been
the custom since the bureau extended its
operations to Queens county, for all cat
tie killed because of being infected with
pleuro-pneumonia. to re appraised and
paid for out of the United States treas
ury. The swindle Just discovered enabled
the perpetrators to pocket from $40 to
SIS each for a large number of cattle
condemned and slaughtered. The swind
lers would procure a small farm near the
towns of Newton or Jamaica, and send
from New York or other places droves of
cattle purchased at about $25 per head.
The carcass OF some COWS which had died
OF .pleuro. pneumonia would then DE OBJ
tanned and exposed near the cattle a sufi
cient length of time to insure inocculation
with the disease.
Inspectors visiting the farm would find
herds infected and an appraisement and
slaughter would follow. Although the
inspectors have no doubt whatever that
the owners of the cattle have perpetra-
ted deliberate swindles, they have been
unable to obtain conclusive evidence to
warrant arrests. In order, however. to
prevent any more such swindling, the
chief inspector has decided to pay for no
more infected cattle. 1t is believed that
the treasury has been defrauded OF be-
tween 81. 900 to 81, 200 by dishonest cat
tie dealers during the past year. One
man alone had three herds condemned.

Trouble About a Goose.

ST. PAUL, Dec. GA special to the
Pioneer Press from Sioux City says: A
serious riot occurred this morning near
Trip, OAK, between Russian Mennonites
and Americans. A public sale was held
at the farm of a Russian named Sink and
an American farmer named Merchant
purchased a dozen chickens. When ready
to start home he found two chickens miss
ing and complained to Sink, who told him
to take something of equal value. He
caught a goose and started home. but was
oyertaken by a party of eight Russians
who claimed the goose as their property.
A wrangle ensued that attracted otherst to
the scene and soon a general fight was in
progress in which some twenty men were
engaged, with the Russians as the ag-
gressors.
Two brothers named johnson who were
passing Joined in the melee with knives.
A Russian named Mayor was stabbed,
and he in turn split Chas. Johnson
fatal injuries. The same weapon broke
the arm Of Geo johnson, and knives
were used to slash up three other Rus
slams badly, but not fatally. The Ameri-
cans found the force opposing them too
strong and withdrew from the field. The
wounded Russians were taken care OF by
their companions, and nothing can be
learned from them owing to their GUS
toms. The affair created the most in
tense excitement IN the neighborhood,
where the majority of the settlers are
Russians. Officers are now investigating.

evening in which f. f. Rust, editor of

Signor Olson. 1t seems that Olson in
suited Rust's sister some time ago and
Rust demanded an apology, which was
refused. On Christmas eve the men met
in the Brunswick saloon. Olson went
behind the bar, got two revolvers, laid
them on the counter and told Rust to take
one of them and go with him and they
would settle the difficulty. A quarrel
ensued and Olson finally jumped over the
counter, gun in hand. Rust was too quick
for him. however, and drew his own pis-
toll and shot Olson twice, killing him
almost instantly. Olson was in bad re.
pute and public sympathy is with Rust.
