THE PROSPERITY OF THE LOUISVILLE AND
NASHVILLE RAILROAD COMPANY.
The directors of the louisville and Nashville Rail-
road Company adiourLei yesterday after three days
ses sion They declared dividend Of per cent pay
able in the stock of ao company, in accordance with
the policy approved By the shareholders In February
The directors were authorized then to eIpend the
earnings in improvements, but the amount was TO be
divided among the shareholders In new STOCK The
new policy was not to extend over three years and
could be ended at any time by the directors The
rcrip dividend declared yesterday was the second
under this plan and made the total dividend for the
year per cent. To stockholders at the present mar
ket price the return the investment IS per cent
but the cash value OF the dividends for the year is
only per cent on the par value Of the stock
President Norton said In regard to the many rumors
circulated In Wall Street There was no difference
Of opinion about the dividend, which was not even
considered until to-day, and It Is not true that our
london stockholders objected to second scrip divi
dend The financial policy Of the company is well
defined and the stockholders approved 1t almost
unanimously
Mr. Norton declared that the statement published
IN Tho Times the Louisville and Nashville was
trying TO get control OF the East Tennessee was abso
hitely without foundation. 1T has not been sug-
pested I'm the board, and | think should be safe In
saving that not one director has dreamed OF such q
thing. The suggestion Is rdiculous.'

A DECISION AGAINST TWO RAILROADS.

Washington July o6.-The Interstate Commerce Com
mission has decided the cases Of Frank L. Hurlourt
against the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway
Company and the Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
Tho complaint was that hub blocks we're put In the
fifth class Of freight They blocks which are roughly
turned to take of the bark, hole bored in them to
prevent checking and the ends dipped in rosn, and
sawed of about the length OF hub. These the de-
PENDANTS claimed, should go into the fifth class with
wagon material, unfinished" and not with lumber
In the sixth class The railroads claimed that the article
WAS not hub block but to all intsnts hub. The Com
mission decided that they unseasoned raw materal
on the way to the manufacturer and must be considered
as properly classed with lumber.

THE KIND

OF Democrats who Are Going to Vote
For Harrison.
To TIE Editor ofths Register:
DEAR SIR: In to-dsy's Intelhgencer l
noticed that Hon. Harvey Danford, OF
Wayne Township, was going to vote for
Harrison. Nobody who is acquainted
with him is in the least surprised. In
fact, they could expect nothing else. He
came into the Democratic party with
Greeley and we sent him to the Legislature
in 1878. Since that time he has not been
a half Democrat. He voted for Blaine IN
1894 and was a Republican prior to that
aud since. The Danfords are all Rspubh-
cans and Harvey is where he belongs. We
are better without him. Respectfully,
ONE WHO Is ACQUAINTED WITH HIM.

and that the delegates hadn't had suIh-
Gent time to decide to. their satisfaction
what men would be the most suitable TO
send TO the Legislature, so he moved tnat
the convention adjourn for one week ana
upon its reconvenipg ticket could be Sc
Iected with much better satisfaction to all.
This raised general kick among the
country delegates. They had come to
the convention to completea ticket ana
they proposed 10 do 30. A German from
the Richie delegation kicked vigorously
and he was backed by the biggest part OF
the convention. Mr.. Chew thought it
was a scheme and so did Mr.. Bremen, OF
Richie, who got real mad, and said such
action would give some one chance 10
put MP q job, and he proposed to not have
any hand in such scheme.
Mr.. McColloch amended DR.. Edwards
motion BY making the adjournment for
half an hour. The doctor withdrew his
motion, Mr.. McColloch did the same, and
the convention proceeded to business.
Then the earmarks Of consolation deal
became apparent when Mr.. George Wise,
of Madison, put in nomination Capt
Thomas Prince for the Legislature. This
was Immediately seconded by D. W. Mar
tin, of Centre, who also moved that Capt.
Prince be
NOMINATED BY ACCLAMATIoN,
which carried with whoop and hurrah
that even surprised many Of the delegates
who didn't appear to be on the inside OF
the deal.
There were three more gentlemen to Sc
lect and Mr.. Tracy named Chas Harrbuck.
James McAdams named T. M. GAyln,
Mr.. McColloch named W. M. Dunlap,
Chas. Bailey named Judge Thsyer Melvin,
J.K. Hall named DIR. T. Il. Logan, I. ID.
Bennett named Hugo Loos, John K. CLARK
named F.. III. Atkinson. Harland Carter
was also named, but was afterwards WITH
drawn. ........,....,.z
Mr.. Dunlap then made his appearance
before the convention and said that ne re-
allied that no man who lived outside OF the
CITY limits could be nominated from among
the Republican ranks and he did not propose
to allow himself to be placed before the
convention to be slaughtered. This was
hit on Mr.. Dunlap's part, for seeing the
signs of an approaching storm several DEL
egates assured Mr.. Dunlap that If he allow
ed his name to remain before convention
they would assure him of their support
F. c. Arbenz made speech favorlng Mr..
Dunlap and that gentleman Ieconsidered
his action. Then Mr.. McCulloch moved
that the convention proceed to the nom
ination of the country delegate first. This
created some kicking, especially from Web
ster district, but the majority OF the con-
vention ruled and the motion prevailed.
MR.. DUNLAP NOMINATED.
A ballot was taken on Mr.. Atkinson
and Mr.. Dunlap, and as the indications
were that Danlap was far in the lead,
there was a general break to him before
the vote was announced, and on motion OF
Mr.. Stanton Mr.. Dunlap was nominated
by reclamation. He made the usual
speech of thanks, and said he did not
want to leave his work and family to 90
Charleston, but for the good of the party
he would consent to do so.
This little squsbble settled, ballot was
taken on the remaining candidates, which
resulted as follows:
