Grand Army Reunion.

The twenty-third National Encamp-
ment of the Grand Army of the Repub-
lie at Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the last
week OF August. 1889. now bids fair to
be the largest and most successful yet
held. Comrades have generally con-
cluded to accept the advice OF the Com
mander-in-Chief, and go en- masse, and
this shows their appreciation of the
magnificent hospitality rendered by the
city of Milwaukee. Comrades of the
Northwest will find this TO be the best
and cheapest opportunity to attend an
encampment that will be presented for
years. as future encampmentS will
doubtless be much farther away.
The Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
Railway is the short line and direct
route from st. Paul and Minneapolis to
Milwaukee. 1t has five daily trains to
and from that city, and gives passen-
gers a choice of three separate and
distinct routes, going and returning,
1t has one train that runs Through by
daylight" relieving comrades who take
it of the expense of sleeping car fare.
The rate from st. Paul or Minneapolis
to Milwaukee and return is s9.70, or
one fare for the round trip. This rate
is open to everybody. whether members
of the Grand Army or not.
The sale of tickets will begin on Au
gust 21st, and close ON August 18th, and
return tickets will be good until Sep
TENDER 5th, inclusive. Those who wish
to make ''side trips" from Milwaukee
may deposit their return tickets with
the joint agent there; call for them any
time before September 30th, and they
will be made good to destination.

A Knowing Canary.
Philadelphia Times.


Canary birds are easily trained, as we
told you recently. Two of our girls
send US the following letter about one
belonging to their aunt. Everybody de-
lights in trained bird, and there is no
reason why boys and girls should not
teach their little pets all the tricks our
young friends here tell us about:
Dear Mr.. Editor: After reading
about canary birds in your paper, we
thought you would like to hear about
one our aunt has in Washington. 1t is
very tame, and flies through the house,
both up and down stairs. One day he
followed grandma out into the front
yard without her knowledge. She was
scared when she saw him on the step,
but spoke sharply to him, saying, "Pete!
you rascal! go in the housen' Rather
to her surprise, he turned and
hoped in.
When any one uses the typewriter, he
gets on the carriage and rides back and
forth, sometimes running along on it as
if trying to beat it. He will go to a
stranger when spoken to, and he never
gets tired playing with any one. He
will also lie on his back in the palm of
your hand and play dead bird"
People often bring their friends to
see him, as he is SO very amusing. Be-
sides, he is beautiful singer.

Among the cases settled before JUS

services rendered by the plaintiff. The
services consisted in furnishing the de-

The plaintiff claimed that the neces-

much loss of time and Inconvenience to
himself, and the divorce secured upon
the same. A woman named ReddeS,
who assisted Weinstock in his detective
work, received as the reward of her

To compare the above with the status
of work, we have the following cOmpar-
alive figures: On Jan. 29, 1883, under
construction, 1857; under survey $3.50;
projected 4.254. On Aug. 8, 1889, under
construction S33; under survey 1887;
projected 3,479. In comparing these
two sets of figures, it should be remem-
bered that the mileage under cOnstruc-
tom includes lines for which con-
tracts have been let. and graded
lines on which work is now
at a standstill. but is expected to be re-
sumed at an early date, as we'll as the
lines ON which actual construction is
going on at the present time. Of the
S33 miles in the above total, not more
than 600 miles are being actively pushed
to completion at the present time. The
mileage classed as under survey in
cludes a large number of lines
which have been more or less
definitely located, and are likely
to go on, but on which engineers
are not at work; while many surveyed
lines Oh which the prospect for future
work is more indefinite are classed
under projected" A comparison of
the two tables is of great interest.
Many of the proposed roads which were
then under survey. and were being
actively pushed by their promoters,
have been put back into the class of
''proiects;" while others have been left
out of this table entirely, there being
not life enough in the enterprise at
present to justify its inclusion in our

THREAT OF THE ATCHIsoN.

ISOLATION.

In protecting 1USeil III w Ill lis
rupt the Western Freight AS
ISOLATION.
CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-The traffic mana
ger of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe railroad to-day sent a note to Chair
man Midgeley, of the Western Freight
association, notifying him that the
Santa Fe is preparing new schedule
for freight between Chicago and Kansas
City, and that hereafter it will refuse
to divide business between those points
with any of the Chicago-Kansas City
roads. The note is as follows:
j. W. Midgeley, Chairman Western Freight
Association Southwestern Divison.-Dear
Sir: About one year ago the Atchlson, To-
peka d Santa Fe company opened its Chi
cago line for traffic. 1t was then thought
best pending the action of other roads, not
to put in effect the policy adopted by nearly
all of its competitors, i. e., to make through
rates to Chicago exclusively by its own line,
but to continue its through rates and dlVlS-
ions with other lines east of Kansas City. In
view, however, of reductions recently made
in the rates on live stock from points west
of Kansas Clty to Chicago and St. Louis on
lower basis than those at present in effect it
becomes necessary for this company, in pro-
lection of its own interests. to change its pol
Icy above referred to in so far as live
stock traffic to Chicago is con-
eerned and to adopt the policy in effect
on the lines of most, if not all. its competit-
ors, viz, to make its through rates on live
stock from all parts of its system to Chicago
over its own line only. This plan Will be
adopted in the issue of the new tariff, which
is now under consideration, and which is
made necessary by the reduction in the Kan
sas City Chicago rates on live stock made et-
fectiye a few days since.
W. f. WHITE, Traffic Manager.
In other words, the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fe, if it carries out the above
threat. will cut off not only the Alton,
but the st. Paul and Wabash from all
participation in its business originating
west of Kansas City, except 1t is taken
after paying full local rates to Kansas
City, thereby materially lowering the
former Kansas City-Chicago proportion
on this business. 1t is an exact dupli-
cate of thh stand taken by the Rock
Island. Speaking of this matter, Gen
eral Manager Chappell, of the Chicago
& Alton. said to-day:
The Alton joined the Western Freight asso-
citation under the stipulation that it should
share in Kansas City in all business originat-
ing west of there. This stipulation was made
especially in reference to business coming in
on the Atchison, as at that time it did the
bulk of the business. The stipulation ap-
piled only as general principle to the Rock
Island, as at the time of our joining the asso-
citation it did little business west of Kansas
City. Owing to this stipulation the issuance
of the threatened tariff by the Atchison prac-
tcally sewers our connection with the associ-
alton. We shall certainly withdraw as soon
as the tariff is issued.

excitement occasioned by the affair is
intense. The Canadians are 10th to I'M
derStand why the American govern
ment should not entertain the same
opinion regarding international laws
and the three-mile limit on the Pacific
as well as on the Atlantic coast. The
authorities here will continue to dis
cuss the American preentsiOns as to
exclusive jurisdiction in Behring's sea.
At present the governor general
is in direct communication with the
British government, which favors eau
tious policy. The Canadian govern
ment is indignant over repeated seiz-
ures on the high seas, and has asked
England in plain language to protect
it's interests. The effect of a refusal
to sacrifice imperial interests for do
nestle one is hard to determine. The
press of Canada is unit in denOuncing
the seizures. OF course nobody thinks
of going to war. The dispute has di-
rected attention to Canada's military
strength. The active military force eX-
ceedS $4,000 men. On the basis of the
last census Canada can put 100000 men
in the field,

any one familiar with the status of eX-

lined in the opinions of well informed
railway managers, published in the
daily papers recently, 1t may seem
strange that any one at the present
time is rash enough to invest his money
i'll building new railway lines in
the Northwest. 1t is in this
section that the building of
competing lines has already
been overdone. as every one confesses,
and the hostile railway legislation,
which is generally considered to be the
worst evil railway investors have to
fear, has been carried on chiefly in Hi
nois, Wisconsin,, Minnesota, Iowa and
Nebraska, all of which states are in
Guided on our map. 1t is true, indeed.
that railway construction in this section
has greatly fallen off; but the common
impression that it has entirely stopped.

the mark.

Britons Have Received No Official
News of the Seizures in Behring
Sea.
LONDON, Aug. 2.-In the house of
commons this afternoon, Sir James
Ferguson, parliamentary secretary to
the foreign Office, said that no authentic
information had as yet reached the
government regarding the seizure of
British vessels in Behring sea by the
United States government. He also
said that no understanding had been
arrived at in regard to the jurisdiction
of the Behring sea.
LISTEN TO THE YAWP.
OTTAWA, Ont. Aug. 2.-Tne Citizen,
the organ of the government here,
which has hitherto been silent on the
Behring's sea question, to-day says in
it's editorial column:
If the present government at Washington
fails to bring about serious complications be-
tween the imperial government and the
United States, it will not be because no effort
has been forth to produce so desirable a re.
suit. The truth is that statesmen of the cali
Der Of Webster and Clay do not now reach
maturity on the southern portion of this
continent Peddling politicians seekers after
notoriety professors of brag and duplicity,
appear to have monopolIzed all places of inn
portance, and are now intent upon forcing
issues with this country, whose people are
rapidly learning to despise, not tear them.
The recent shameful act of piracy committed
upon Canadian vessel in Behring's sea is
absolutely unjustifable and has only one re-
deeming feature, namely, that 1t will bring
the whole question under consideration and
the Washington authorities will be obliged to
apologize as we'll as recoup the owners Of the
vessels they interfere with. If this is not
done. what is left Of Yankee naval effects
will probably disappear from more seas than
Behring's.

The MOST important Admiralty
Suit Ever Known Begun at De-
troit.
DETROIT. Mich, Aug. 2.-The most
important admiralty case ever known in
the United States district court was
begun here yesterday. 1t is the suit of
Harvey H. Brown, Fayette Brown and
G. j. Sheffield, of Cleveland. and E. M.
Peck, of Detroit, owners of the steam
ship G. j. Sheffield, against the owners
of the steamship North Star, in which
they seek to recover damages to the
amount of S176, 791. As. The Sheffield,
Capt. Christopher G. Allen, was in en-
route from South Chicago to Two
Harbors, Mimi, without cargo. when
she encountered heavy fog, on June
Ii last. Her fog signal was blown
regularly. About O'Clock p.
m. she was signalled by the
North Star, Capt William Thorn. which
seemed to be passing on her port side.
Either through the blowing of wrong
signals or the misinterpretation of
signals, collision resulted. The Shelf
field was sunk in 600 feet of water. The
North Star was not damaged. The
complaints assert that the collision was
the result Of Negligence, unskillfulness
and carelessnesS on the part Of the per-
sons navigating the North Star. The
last named vessel is owned by COM
pany of Cleveland capitalists.
