WILLING To ARBITRATE.
The Western Union Kicks Against
Wanamaker's Schedule Of
Rates

The Western Union Kicks Against
Wanamaker's Schedule Of
Rates.
NEW YORK, Nov. 13-President Green
to-day made public the resolutions
adopted by the executive committee OF
the board of directors of the Western
Union Telegraph company with regard
to the recent order of the postmaster
general fixing the rate for government
telegraph service during the fiscal year,
which declares that:
Whereas, The postmaster general has fixed
a schedule OF rates for all telegraph COM
panies controlled by the provisions of said
act, which rates also are materially below
the cost necessary to this company and to
others of transmitting the messages OF the
the United States; and
whereas, This company is obliged TO con-
slider the enforcement Of said rates as con-
fiscation of its property to that extent, and
is advised that Obvious injustice under said
act is remediable at law;
Resolved That this company Will transmit
as heretofore, with due priority and dill
gence. all telegrams.between toe several de-
partments of the government and officers
and agents: but this company will not accept
as final payment the rates above established
until its rights in that regard have received
such further consideration asst may be able
to secure, aud the president of this company
ishereby directed to file copy Of this, our
protest, with the heads of the several execu-
tive departments of the United States.
president Green sends copy of the
resolutions to the postmaster general
withailetter, in which, referring to the
latter's proposition to leave the fixing
of rates in the future to board of arbl-
tration, he says:
Thefnrther course you suggest OF board
Of arbitration is within what we have always
preferred. We have stood ready always to
supply to the incumbent of your Office the
fuiless opportunity for search into the cost of
Geographic business and to accept freely his
impartial Judgment. If you prefer TO dele
gate that judgment to a board composed as
you suggest, leaving the rates for this year to
be governed by that result, we shall be glad

A MURDER, MAYHAP.
Stabbing ARRAY on the Bluff Oye'

SthDDlUg AuFAy Ots tnC AiWh 'O~
Cigarette.
What will probably prove fatal at
fray occurred Tuesday night near the
corner of Third and Maple streets. One
OF the contestants, William Haverstick,
was stabbed behind the right shoulder
blade with pocket dagger. and will, it
is believed, die Of his injuries. Jo-
seph Simpson. his assailant, is locked
up in the county jail On the charge OF
assault with intent to kill, which may
be changed to that of murder. The
trouble which led to the stabbing was
engendered over matter so trivial as
cigarette. Simpson stepped into the
store conducted by Hayerstick at
the point indicated and helped
himself to a cigarette from the
case upon the counter. HayerStick re-
sented the liberty and the men engaged
i'm desperate struggle in which Simp-
son was thrown. Simpson subsequently
made his escape to the street followed
by Haverstick who again knocked him
down and rolled him in the gutter.
Regaining his feet, Simpson drew a
knife and inflicted the wound as stated.
Simpson is only eighteen years old, but
is regarded as a quarrelsome citizen in
his own neighborhood. He has been
for some time in the employ of the dc
Donough Fuel company On Dayt0n's
Bluff and is plumber by trade. The
arrest was made by Patrolmen Peter
son and Swanson. DR.. Amoss was seen
last evening and expressed the opinion
that, while HayersLick might recover
the chances were about even.

HANGING FROM A TREE.
A Badger Murderer Cheats the
GaliOWS,

NEILsvILLE, Wis.,. Nov. ia tragic
sequel to tragedy occurred near here
to-day in the suicide of man for whom
warrant was issued on charge of
murder. On the 23d of August Carl
Hanke was found dead in lumber
camp near Spokeville, with an empty
rifle by his side and bullet through
his body. His death was supposed to
have been accidental. Recently, how
ever, officers had reason to suspect that
Hanke had been murdered, and war
rants were issued last evening for two
suspected persons, one of them named
Field. In some way Field received
word that warrant was out for his ar
rest. and he was found this forenoon
hanging dead in his barn near Spoke
vile. The other suspected man has
not yet been arrested and his name is
withheld. / he motive for the killing
of Hanke, if he really was murdered, is
not known.

THE RIGGS ELECTRIC SIGNAL.
Description of the New Safety APP
paratus-A Model Viewed by
Many Railroad Men.


paratus-A Model Viewed by
Many Railroad Men.
J. w. Riggs, whose invention of a
safety device for railroads was written
up in the GLOBE OF the time of the issue
of the patent last February. and whose
working model was on exhibition at the
exposition last summer, has another
model on exhibition at the office of the
Northwestern Raiiroader. This was i'll
spected yesterday by large number of
railroad men. and much interest was
manifested. A brief description of this
device may be of interest. A line Is
laid midway between the tracks and
connected with every switch, so that
when the switch is opened an electric
circuit is closed over the main line for a
considerable distance in each direction.
A brush of steel wire situated under the
forward truck of the engine is in con-
slant contact with this line. This
brush communicates with gong on the
engine by means of wires. When the
engine enters the circuit formed by the
opening of the switch the gong
rings necessarily until the switch is
closed. Drawbridges are protected in
the same way. Another attachment is
a thermoStat on every bridge anu treStle,
which in case of fire closes the circuit
and gives the same warning. In case
of a flood another attachment, consist
ing of a cylinder containing float,
closes the circuit in similar way. Mr..
Riggs is now at work upon plan
whereby the center rail can be entirely
done away with. and one of the ordinary
rails turned to the same use. He is
also making a model by which the same
principles will operate only with a
closed circuit as normal condition, and
on the breaking of this circuit the alarm
will be given. Several prominent rail-
road men expressed themselves as
highly pleased with the invention, as
the expense of one railroad accident
would be greater than that of equipping
several hundred miles OF road with the
Riggs electric signal. 1t costs S25 to
pace it complete on an engine, while
the tract equipment costs about $500 a
mile.

ABBOTT'S FINAL ACTION.
ALI Roads Authorized to Meet the

Southwestern Tourist Rates.
AS a result of the misunderstanding
through which the Burlington pub
lished and refused to withdraw the
schedule of tourist rates to Southwest
ern points adopted at meeting of the
st. Paul & Minneapolis Passenger as
ISOLATION on Oct. 90, these rates are now
III effect on all lines. Chairman Abbott
issued the following circular by wire
yesterday: referring to the action of
the Northwestern committee of Nov. z,
agreeing to Withdraw the winter tourist
rates which had been placed in effect
by some of the lines from st. Paul and
Minneapolis without authority of the
association, the Chicago, Burlington &
Northern Railroad company. in contra
vention of this agreement. has not with
drawn these rates, all lines having
agreed thereto. You are hereby au-
thoriZed to meet such winter tourist
rates as are now in effect from st. Paul
and Minneapolis via the Chicago. Bur-
lington & Northern railroad" These
rates would have gone in effect on Dec.
1 anyway, so tourists will just have
about two weeks advantage. That
is all.

New York, Nov. 13.-The suit of
George Rice, the Marietta, o. oil re-

to compel the issuance to Rice of six
shares of Standard Oil stock now stand
ing in the name of j. r. Mall ably, was
begun in the supreme court here to-day.
Mr.. Rice bought the stock in 1886 from
Mallaby, but delivery was refused. The
Standard people claim that Rice's OBJ
ject in buying the stock was to obtain
right to inquire into the inside opera
tions of the trust, intending to use the
information in suits against the trust
and ultimately compel the trust to buy
his refinery, which he values at $780,

sell the refinery, and says that all he
wants to obtain by litigation is equal
