Passenger Association.
CHICAGO, Sept. 4.-The Western
States Passenger association, at its
meeting to-day, attempted to elect a
permanent chairman and failed. The
present incumbent, John n. Abbott, has
held the place for nearly three years.
When the association was recognized
last winter, he was not reelected, and
since that time has in reality been only
acting chairman. The agreement pro-
vides that chairman must be elected
by unanimous vote, and when the bal
loting commenced to-day it became evil
dent that Mr.. Jewett could not be re-
elected. E. p. Wilson, general passen-
ger agent of the Chicago q Northwest
ern, and W. f. White, traffic manager
of the Atchison, Topeka q Sante Fe.
were among those who received votes.
As unanimous vote could not be Sc
cured for any of the candidates pro-
posed. the ballOting will be resumed to-
morrow.

than likely result fatally. Mr.. Patterson, a

had been informed that his wife was going
to the park to meet man and he followed
her out there. When he came up with her
she was walking with Hon. Mr.. Dodger, of
Milton county. Mr.. Patterson asked Mr..
Dodger to drop back until he could speak
to his wife. Husband and wife walked a
short distance away, talking as they went.
They had not gone more than twenty feet
from Mr.. Dodger when the hu band grab
bed his wife and stabbe;! her six times and
then ran away. Mr.. Dodger says his meet
ing with the woman was purely accidental,
and that ne knew her some time ago in Mil
