A RAILROAD MANS VACATION.
General Manager Belknap's Trip
North.

General Manager Belknap, of the Central
railroad, was in his office yesterday after an
absence Of six weeks in the north. He
returned yesterday morning on the fast
mail, accompanied by his family and
private secretary.
Maj. Belknap talked very pleasantly
about his trio. 1t was the first vacation, he
said, that he has had in many years.
de spent some time at Lake George, en-
deavoring to put business aside. but the
Central haunted him and he slipped off to
New York with his private secretary.
Once the Central people found out where
their general manager was, his vacation
was at an end. In speaking of the work IN
New York having taken up good portion
OF MS vacation, Mai. Bslknap said that II
was harder for him to rest than to work.
In answer to question as to the i'm
nrovements in railrOading north, Maj.
belknap said that he saw very little i'm
provement upon the best managed southern
roads "Of course" he said "those roads
that are conducted o. more extensive
scale than southern roads, necessarily have
the more modern appliances, and they re-
qulre powers that could not be used at all in
the south from the fact that the roads are
operated dltfere ltly. As to general rail
reading it is the same all over the country
AhuIlH8 70 Jne CenLFalS plans, MA DBL
KNAPP said that all diligence will be employed
to complete the company's projects-its
warehouses, its lumber wharves and cotton
platforms and its new roads now building.
In answer to question as to what ar
rangements has been made with the Savan-
nah, Americas and Montgomery when the
roads connect at Sterling, he said that there
has been no definite arrangement yet.
The two roads are to be built to Sterling
for the present, or at least that is
the Centra's plan. Mai Belknap under
stands that when the Savannah road gets
to Sterling it will simply make a transfer
OF its freight to the Central and the Central
in going west, will be governed by the
same rules. 1t is the PURPOSE the general
manager said, to build the Eden extension
as far as Sterling by Nov. 1, and if the
money is on hand, 1t will be detected to "a
parallel line ten miles above the Savannah,
Florida and Western railroad, and will be
built to Americas, correcting with
the Buena Vista and Columbus railroad and
forming the Savannah aud Western system.
Maj. Bolknep's attention was called to the
fact that the Alabama Midland railroad is
open part of the distance from cambridge
TO Montgomery and may be ready for the
winter traffic. THAT is all right" he said
''The Central has no cause for complaint.
The new road developes new territory"

morning discussing the electric motor sys-

People Kept Awake by Pistol Firing
on the Streets.
The reckless and lawless acts west of
West Broad street were exemphfied yestar-
day morning on Minis street. About three
quarters of an hour after midnight a
pistol shot was heard. Shortly after a
mounted policeman galloped up Hall street
aud down West Broad to Huntingdon
looking for the disturber of the peace.
The people in the neighborhood, awakened
by Shots, came to their windows thinking
some one had been shot. The party, among
which was the shooter, appeared to be per-
fectly sober, and the ls1rderly act was
evidently committed out of sheer mischief
to terrorize the neighborhood. Few officers,
on duty remote from brother officer, care
to risk attempting the arrest of an armed
crowd in the face of the experience of the
officers on last THANKSGIVING day and the
experience of Officer Elarbee last week

Impression that Gov. Pillsbury went to
Europe the day before yesterday. Mr..
Pillsbury sailed for Europe shortly
after the university commencement in
June, and took a part of his family

Senator Washburn, so that he could
hardly have rushed across to effect a
deal with him to sell out the Pillsbury

RumOrs.
1t is generally believed among milling

Sold to the British syndicate about which
so much has been heard here in the past
few months. Rumors to that effect, and
also that the Washburn. Crosby & Co.
interests were included, became current
Yesterday morning and created great
excitement on 'change.
Gov. Pillsbury is in Europe, and c. A.
Pillsbury left short time ago for New
York, both of which facts are inter-
preted as giving color to the report, it
being believed that the two gentlemen
are engineering the European and
American ends of the deal respectively.
The local representatives of the firm
are somewhat reticent regarding the
matter, but claim to diSbelieve that the
deal has been closed, while they admit
that it is still on.
William De La Barre, in charge of the
West side water power, received a tele-
gram yesterday from gentleman in
New York, stating that the sale had
been made. How reliable the New
York mans information was is not
known, put IL is certain, or practically
so, that the deal is still pending, and
that its completion or abandonment is a
matter to be settled in the very imme-
date future.

As Usual, There Was a Woman
in the Case.

Since Capt. R. r. Harvey was dis
charged from the police force several
ugly stories regarding him have become
current. If Capt. Harvey had Staid in
town he might have retained many
friends, but on being dismissed he fed
ngloriously. not having been seen since
the evening of that day. In the after
noon he went home, attired himself in
citizens dress and went to the EXPOSE
ton. While there he met girl who is
acquainted with the family, told her he
was going to Duluth and would not be
back until Saturday. That is the last
that has been seen or heard of him so
far as his family and friends know. He
gave his wife no warning of lis depart
ure, but that is not to be wondered at as
it is understood that he has been at
home very little for the past few
months. occasionally sleeping and eat
ing there, but more frequently stopping,
as it is charged, with woman in North
Minneapolis, of whom he seems to have
been very much enamOred. Charges
are also made that he had contributed
very little to the support of his family
for the past year. and has persistently
neglected his wife, quiet little lady
who is highly esteemed by all who
know her. Mrs. Harvey hasn't the
slightest idea where her husband is, and
doesn't seem to care. She has said that
she never expected to see him again,
and didn't care to.
1t has been said that Capt. Harvey at
one time transferred his property
to his paramour, but that he aft
erwards had sufficient regard for
himself, his wife or his children to have
1t transferred back to Mrs. Harvey.
Whether this is true or not cannot be
ascertained, but is probably correct,
although Mrs. Harvey does admit know
ing the woman with whom her hus-
bands liason was carried on, while she
seems to know the one to whom the
transfer was made. The property in
question is Capt. Harvey's home at 1886
Third avenue south, and was decided
by him to Frederick l.. S. Syck on
Sept. 2, and on the 14th was decided by
her to Mrs. Harvey. The police believe
that the Syck woman accompanied tine
eX-captain in his flight.
