A committee Of gentlemen from Tyler
county went yesterday to Parkersburg
to consult with the authorities of the
Ohio River Road on the proposed branch
which is soon to be built. The argu-
ments they present in favor Of the Tyler
route are that, while the distance is
seven miles greater than by the Wetzel
route, the road could be built and oper-
ated more cheaply by the former than
by the latter; that it would pass through
richer country, thus afforiing more
local traffic, and that greater induce
ments are offered in the way OF sub
scriptions aud right Of way. II any
choice has been made as between the
two routes it has not yet been made
public.
Commenting on the absurd report
that Wheeling merchants are working
for the Wetzel route, the Tyler Star OF
this week says:
''The Star would be 10th to believe
that Wheeling wholesale merchants
would be SO blind to their own interest
as to take sides with and contribute to
the Wetzel route. The trade OF Wetzel
county is theirs anyhow, by reason Of
proximity. Sistersville being exactly
half way between Wheeling and Park
ersburg, the trade of Tyler county could
be easily diverted from Wheeling, where
the bulk Of It now goes, to Parkerburg;
and it certainly would be so diverted il
our people become convinced that the
Wheeling wholesalers are working
agninst our interests. II Wheeling has
any interest in the matter as between
the two routes it certainly is in the Ty-
Ter route.

WHAT THE DRApLOCK COSTS.
Democrats Obstructing business in the In
terest OF the BILLS Bill.

teFest OF the Mills Bill.
WASHINGTON, D. c., April ct is
three or four men who are holding all
law.making back, delaying and obstruct-
ing every function OF Congress when rs
important legislation as has been had for
many years is waiting and pressing to
the front for action.
The men who are responsible to the
country for this tomfoolery, obstruction,
delay and immense expense are all from
the South, all ex-Confederates, with the
exception OF that chronic crank, Weaver,
OF Iowa. He is assisting Oates, OF Ala
bama; Breckinridge, Of Arkansas, and
McAIillen, OF Tennessee, in this ldlocy.
Lanham, OF Texas, also comes in, though
not so prominently. The business Is
done through these unknown country
lawyers from wayback Confederate cross
roads, and cost the country in direct out
lay about $500 an hour. The whole
monkeyshine matter thus lar has cost
from $4,000 to 100000 This, not mem
tioning the damage done by delay and
the prevention OF necessary legislation,
appropriations, &c. 1t would seem that
parliamentary rules that thus enable a
few insignificant malcontents to take the
legislative power OF the Nation by the
throat and throttle it for hours and days
ut time are in urgent need OF revision.
In the midnight session yesterday the
Speaker, on q motion made by MIR.
Breckenridge, made u ruling that Gen:
Grosvenor promptly showed enabled
any man on the floor, supported by one
fifth of the members, tOenforce $50 roll:
calls and consume nearly fifty days OF
six hours day In the present struggle
nothing could be clearer than that the
Republicans, supported by majority OF
the other side, are in the right and the
small minority are in the wrong.
The direct tax bill, which is the mat
ter at issue, passed the Senate by IN
overwhelming majority. All the Repnb-
licans ask for is a vote upon the bill.
That is the right, the order and the in
tention. They offer the other side all
the time they want for debate, and ask
for no time for themselves. They sim
ply ask for q vote, and the gang OF con-
spirators refuse it and the long deadlock
goes on day and night.

ROMANCE and POISON.
A Pretty Governess Tries to Put
an End to Her Life.
FORSAKEN BY HER LOVER,
She Attempts Her Own Lift,-The Sad
Story ofa Young Girl in Chicago.
The Old Gentleman Willing,
but the Mother objects.

CHICAGO, April 6.-The attempt of a
young and beautiful girl to commit sui
eide brought to the knowledge of the
police, last night, a romantic story OF
love and disappointment.
Early in the evening a woman ran
breathlessIy into the Canal avenue sta
ton and asked for help in preventing
her sister from taking poison. She was
Mrs. Julia Durkin, Of No. 8 Leslie street,
and with her lives her sister, Miss Agnes
Masters, nineteen years old, handsome
in face and figure.
Lieutenant Rehm accompanied Mrs.
Durkin over to her home. The girl was
sitting at atable with her face buried in
her arms. She was impatient with the
officer, and was only prevailed upon to
tell her story by her sisters recital of it
to the officer. Agnes had been gov
erness in the aristocratiC home Of a
wealthy and well known manufacturer
living on West Monroe street. The
name OF the family was given to Lieuten-
ant Rehm, but the latter refuses to re-
veal it for publication.
In this family was twenty-year-Cld
boy, the eldest son and the pride OF the
family. The boy fell deeply in love with
the pretty governess, and she recipro-
Gated his affection. They were secretly
engaged, he fearing to tell his parents.
The young man proposed runaway
marriage, but Agnes objected to this, and
urged that no further delay should be
made in confding the story OF their love
and engagement to the parents.
The father was first approached, and
with him it was easy to carry their point.
He had been greatly prepossessed in
favor ofthe girl, and, when fully assured
that the attachment was u sincere and
lasting one, gave his consent to the
marriage and offered to set his son up in
business. But the aristocratic mother
violently opposed the match, when she
was told OF it, and, calling Agnes up
stairs, rudely ordered her to leave the
house.
Agnes went back to live with her sis
ter, andfor couple OF months she kept
her courage; the young man making
daily visits to her. A month ago these
visits suddenly ceased. Only recently
she learned that the son had been sent
to Europe, Mt the request of his mother,
to see il absence would not cure the in
fatuation. The deserted girl has pined
away, her health failing daily, becoming
all the while more mornsa and ohstrurt,
ed in her manner. About 6 o'clock last
evening she went to drug store and
bought box OF poison. The drug clerk
suspected her motive and ran over to the
house to notify Mrs. Durkin. The latter
found Annie in her room about to take
the poison and snatched it away from
her lips Just in time. Then she locked
the girl in the room and ran t0rthe police
station.
Agnes declares her intention OF making
away with her forsaken and miserable
life at the first opportunity.

NEW YORk, April 6.-R. G. Dun & Co.
say: Evidence accumulates of shrinkage
in business during the past month and
it is still uncertain whether it is not the
beginning of a reaction. Monetary
anxiety is to great extent relieved,
April payments caused no pinch, money
markets rather close, but few points are
nowhere seriously embarrassed.
The present shrinkage in demand for
products may not last, but it is
for the moment the chief cause
of dullness. In the iron business
depression exists greater than has been
felt for years; the suspension of
work in ten more establishments is an
nounccd. Mill pig iron ut Pittsburgh is
u little lower. Wool has also been
weaker with fair volume OF trade, but
manufacturers buy only for present
needs and the trade in wooden goods is
restricted,

Charles E. Hoyt's skit at the plumbers,
called "a Tin Soldier" was presented at
the Opera House last night. The cast
has been somewhat changed since the
piece was seen here before. Rats is bet
ter done than ever by Eugene Garfield,
and 7. @. seabrooke is great as The Pro
tes,or. Kate Davis makes the part OF
Violet Hughs a star one and Miss John
stone is very natural Carrie Story. Miss
Coe as Mrs. Bridge is charming bride,
and Miss Fauntainbleau's fairy-like
dancing wasa favorite feature. Miss Croix
sings well, and the chorus is good. The
rest Of the cast is Capably made up, the
women being pretty and talented and
the men good in their roles. The Incl
dental singing and dancing are very en-
ioyable, and the audience last night was
as appreciative us could be desired.
The piece will be repeated at the mat

ALL EUROPE EXCITED
Over the Reports that Bismarck
VIII Resign.
THE CROWN PRINCES TOAST
And How 1t Was Interpretod-The
Correct Version Given Prince
Alexandcr's Love suit-other
Interesting Foreign News.

BERLIN, April 6.-owing to commentl
based upon a mutilated version of tht
remarks the Crown Prince made, il
toasting Prince bismarck at the latter
birthday banquet, recently, the Nortl
German Gazette to-day prints the official
text of the speech. In it the Grown
Prince said;
"ofthe last forty years none has been
ofso serious or weighty an import as the
present one. The Emperor you so faith
fully served for twenty-seven years has
gone to his rest, and the people are
cheering the present ruler who shared
in founding the greatness of the Father
land. Your Highness, like us all, will
serve him with the same old German,
manly loyalty. To use a military illus
tration, will compare the present stu
alton with that OF regiment advancing
to an attack. Its commander has fallen,
but the next in command, though hard
hit, rides boldly in advance of all, his
gaze fixed on the flag which its bearer
waves on high. Thus does your High
ness hold the banner OF the empire, and
may it long be permitted to you, in con-
junction with our beloved and revered
Emperor, to hold on high the imperial
flag, God bless and protect the Emperor
and your Highness."
A special to the London Telegraph
from Berlin states that the following pas
sage occurred to the toast given by the
Crown Prince to Prince Bismarck ut the
latter's birthday banquet: "The whole
imperial family hope that the Chancel-
lor will be the present what he was to
the late monarch"
The Cologne Gazette regards the toast
as evidence that Emperor Frederick will
not consent to Prince Bismarck's resig-
nation.
The National Zeitlng says that the re-
newed efforts to obtain the consent Of
the Emperor to the marriage of his
daughter, Princess Victoria, to Prince
Alexander OF Battenburg have not been
successful. Fort this reason there are no
longer any grounds for secret conflict
between Prince Bismarck and the En-
peror, and therefore there is no question
whatever OF Prince Bismarck resigning.

which had been blown up near West
Branch, the reason being stated that its
owner refused to Join the union and
shut down, and witness stated that the
reports were exaggerated according to
current reports in the neighborhoOd.
Question-Do you knew whether this
organization was formed at the sugges-
ton OF the Standard Oil Company for
the purpose Of making it more conye-
nient for them to transfer to the work
men their share OF thSoil?
Al do not know. The purpose OF
the shut down was to diminish the pro-
duction and afford opportunity to de-
crease the surplus Of oil.
J. n. Bradford, contractor, also a
member of the union, testified that he
had no works since the agreement was
entered into, but had, like the previous
witness, received SO up to March 10
from the union. There was one mem
Der regularly delegated to keep a look
out and endeayor to prevent the drilling
Of wells. Adjourned till tomorrow.

WASHINGTON, D, c., April 6.-Presi-
dent Cleveland has made himself solid
with the Indians, "Fleet Wolf and
Hound that Bays" Chipeways, called
to see the President yesterday in regard
to some land claims. Mr.. Cleveland re-
ceiyed them cordially and talked at
length. When they arose to leave they
looked anxiously about the room for the
side board, which not being in sight
moved one OF them to suggest that they
sometimes took frewater with govern
ment officers. The President smiled and
ordered the doorkeeper to admit no one
for a few moments. Then he walked
into a side room and got demiohn OF
whisky and three glasses. When the
glasses were well filled they were touch
ed and all drank heartily. The Indians
are solid for President Cleveland and
second term, and it is probable that all
the Indians who visit Washington will
call upon the President and inquire for
that demijohn.

THE K. OF / REVOLT.
Backing up the Charges Made by the Lead
ers-Lively Times Expected.


CHICAGO, April 6.-The Times to-day
declares that evidence is accumulatiug
to prove the charge made by the leaders
in the revolt against the Knights OF La
Dor, that the philadelphia ring" with
Mr.. Powderly at the head, is machine
that any political party manager might
be proud to control.
1t says the ring has already made up
its slate for the next General Assembly,
which will be the following: General
Master Workman, T. V. Powderly; Gen
eraI Worthy Foreman, Charles II. Litch-
man; General Secretary, Robert d. Lay
ton; General Treasurer, Frederick Tur-
ner; and that It's agreed that POwderly,
after getting himself elected, will resign
within few months and leave the re-
mainder OF the term to Litchman.
The Times then alluded to the circular
recently issued by Mr.. POwderly, dwell
ing upon the necessity OF educating the
working people, and asking that the or
der vote per capita tax OF fifteen cents
for the purpose OF hiring lecturers and
prints an alleged secret circular issued
BY Mr.. Powderly, March 23d, to the dele
gates OF the General Assembly at Mime
apolis, in which he denies that the As
sembly was packed" and asks each
delegate to write him and state ii he or
any OF his Assembly was ever approach
ed by any one friendly to Mr.. Powderly
and asked to work in Mr.. Powderly's in
terest. The hired lecturers will then
step in and explain who it was that
made these charges, and the sentiment
created will again give the ring con-
troll OF the Assembly ut IndianapOlis.

LONDON, April 6.-The somewhat con-
Trajectory reports concerning the resig-
nation of Prince Bismarck as Chancellor
of the German Empire have caused
some excitement here, but in certain
well-informed circles the news has been
received as something that was expected
and has caused no surprise.
Whether Bismarck has resignedor not
seems to be even yet matter of doubt,
but there is no doubt that he has for
some time been decided upon this
course. Ever since the accession of En-
peror Frederick the Chancellor's resigna-
ton was looked upon as something more
than possibility, as his ideas of govern
ment are radically opposed to those OF
his imperial master,

New York, April GA Fredericks-
burg special to the Herdld says: General
Malone replies to Capt. Wise's address
that he would not deem notice of it
necessary but for Capt Wise's enjoy
ment OF prominence in the party, which
gives his high sounding phrases a tic-,
ticious character. He claims that the
present organization is substantially the.
same as was adopted in 1879, and was
never assailed except by minorities. He
saws that Wise in Detroit and Philadel-
phia charged the defeat of 1883 to the
hDanville incident" and claimed that
Fitzhugh Lee is an usurper drawing his
salary and occupying his seat. He
shows an increased vote each year and
snrcastically says: "As our leaders
have diminished by dcsertion and re-
volt our rank and file has grown He
defends the unit and denies that Wise
ever begged him to abandon it.
