NEW ORLEANS COMPLAINT.
The Interstate Commission Now Has
It Under Control.

The Interstate Commission Now Has
1t Under Control.
WASHINGTON, June 2z.-The interstate
commission to-day heard arguments in the
case of the New Orleans cotton exchange
VS.. the Illinois Central, and the case of the
same complainant against the Cincinnati,
New Orleans and Texas Pacific railroad ct
al. The third case, that of the New Orleans
cotton exchange VS.. the Louisville, New
Orleans and Texas Railroad Company
was then taken up. The charge in this case
is that this company, with headquarters at
Memphis, Tenn, has given and does give
an undue and unreasonable advantage to
exporters OF cotton in Memphis, and has at
the same time subjected exporters of cotton
in New Orleans to undue and unreasonable
disadvantage in the transportation of
cotton, and has been guilty of undue dis
elimination against the business or traffic
of merchants at New Orleans; that
the railroad company has given and
is giving to exporters OF cotton in Memphis,
a through rate to Liverpool via New
Orleans of 81 per bale less than can be
secured by exporters in New Orleans, and
then pay the current sea-going rate from
New Orleans to Liverpool. A number of
depositions were filed in this case and argu-
ments made. The commission then took
all three cases under advisement.

REA1a ESTATE SHARKS.
A Gang of Swindlers Operating a.

bJs raul.
ST. PAUL, June 27.--Last Saturday a
real estate man named Stennsgaar negotia-
ted loan of $4,50O with D. A. Jepney of
Harrisburg, Pa, giving as security mort
gage on block of land valued
at about $4,000 owned by a wealthy
brewer of Milwaukee named Aslein.
Stensgaar produced a deed showing
that he had purchased the property of Mr.
Aslein for $4,000. 1t turned out that the
deed was a forgery. Stensgaar protested
that he purchased the property of man
whom ne supposed was Aslein. In connec-
tion with this real estate fraud, it is now
learned that this is only one of series of
frauds, and that a gang of real estate
sharks and swindlers has long existed in
this city. Besides Stensgaar, the po-
lice in this city have to-day ar
rested f. L. Draper a local lawyer,
Avery Chadwick, Leonard Hartello, T. M.
Cummings, Sidney Carver and George
Kingsley. E. A. Carlson was arrested at
Anoka on a telegraphic order from this
city. A number of forged deeds and mort
cages were found in their possession, and
others were in their rooms ut the time of
the arrest Bonds were set at 81 500 for all
but Stensgaar, but no bondsmen satisfac-
tory to the Judge could be found.

ARNOLD IS COLLECTOR.
HIS APPOINTMENT A VICTORY
FOR BUCK.

Col. Locke Points Out That the Entire
Republican State Central Committee
Stood By Buck in His Advocacy OF
Arnold-The End of a Triangular
Fight.
WASHINGTON. June 27.-The President
has appointed the following:
To be Collectors of Internal Revenue
Elihu A. White, for the fourth district of
North Carolina; @. W. Arnold, for the dis
trict of Georgia.
To be Collector Of Customs-Fnos j.
Pennypacker, for the district of Whining
ton, n. G.
The appointment Of Mr. White settles an
interesting triangular fight for this Office,
which has been going ON since the inoom-
ing of the administration. The successful
candidate was opposed by three republican
| congressman from North Carolina, who
had other candidates for the place, but was
| indorsed by large number of the leading
republicans in the Tar Heel state. He is
said to be a man of upright charao-
ter and respected by the members of
both political parties. He was formerly
collector of internal revenue for the district
which was absorbed into the present one
He is of Quaker descent and a farmer by
occupation. He has served in the state
Senate and was delegate to the last two
national conventions, voting in that of 1888
for Harrison from the first ballot through
out. His district embraces the eastern part
of the state.
Mr.. Pennypacker was for many years
collector of the port and was removed
therefrom by President Cleveland. He is
an ex-union soldier, and was originally
from Pennsylvania.
A VICTORY FOR BUCK.
Col. Buck won another victory in the ap-
pointment Of DR.. Arnold as collector of in
ternal revenue in spite of Mr.. Freeman's
enegetic efforts to beat him. Col. Locke
said tonight: "Georgians are happy over
| the appointment of DR.. Arnold as collector
of internal revenue for Georgia. OF the re-
publican state central committee of sixty,
not one fiickered but all stood by Col. Buck
in his advocacy of DR.. Arnold. Indeed all
the active republicans of the state who have
the courage of their convictions are for DR..
Arnold. Those who opposed DR.. Arnold
are men who don't attend republican meet
ings in Georgia. The President is doing
handsomely"

Arrest of Woman for Poisoning Her
Husband and Two Sons.
HoLYoKE, MASS, June 27.---Mrs Lizzie
Brennan was arrested here yesterday on
suspicion of having caused the death Of her
husband and two sons by poisoning their
food with arsenic. The Brennan's had six
children, and Mrs. Brennan succeeded in
insuring the lives Of all, including herself
and her husband, for sums ranging from
$500 to $4,000. the policies being made pay
able to herself. The husband, Michael
Brannen, died about ten months ago under
suspicious circumstances. James Brennan,
a sou, died suddenly about six weeks ago.
A MISTAKE.
She supposed his life insurance had been
increased. but on claiming it at his death
SIZE found that the increase had been made
by mistake In the policy Of his brother
Thomas. 1t was Thomas turn next, and he
died yesterday. Thomas was taken vio-
lently sick about two weeks ago and went
into the country, where he rallied. On
returning home TO board he was taken sick
again, and died in great agony. All the
medicines have been seized by the officers,
who believe that Mrs. Brennan deliberately
poisoned the members of the family.

THE RELIEF Committees STATEMENT.
HARRISBURG. Pa, June 27.--At meet
ing OF the food relief committee this after
noon the following was issued to the public;
That the donors of the funds In the hands OF
the Hood relief committee may know how these
generous gifts are 10 be desposed of, and that
the expected recipients OF the same may not
form erroneous views and foster improper ex-
pectations for the same, it is now officially de
eiared and announced that the following princi-
pies shall govern the distribution OF relief:
/. In chat said fund is In the nature OF charity
70 the needy and not as general indemnity for
losses sustained.
p That a distribution per capita would be
manifestly unjust, as IL would go alike TO rich
and poor, and alike 10 all sufferers, no matter
what their needs or the extent Of their suffer
ings.
8. That distribution by percentage on the
amount OF losses would be manifestly unjust as
It would result in giving the largest sum to the
person having lost most without regard to the
value OF the remaining estate of such person.
4. That this fund cannot be used for the bene-
ht OF any private or public corporation,
3. That the fund must go only TO the most
needy sufferers from the foods In accordance
with, and in the spirit of the trust impressed
upon IL by the donors.
AT the unanimous request of the commission,
Hon Hugh II, Cummin was requested to pro-
ceed to Johnstown, and remain there as resi-
dent representative, aud executive officer Of
this commission in the Conemaugh valley.

the managers Of Kilrain never contemplated

diction of this state.
Bud Renaud, who has charge of the af-
fairs, said last night that the Louisiana
proclamation would not interfere with the
arrangements made. Messrs. Harding and
Stevenson were interviewed as to the ef-
feet Of the proclamation. They concurred
fully in the opinion that 1t could have no
possible effect on the meeting Of Sullivan
and Kilrain, as they never Intended locat-
ing ring within the jurisdiction Of Lonisl-
ana. Consequently they feel no special in

DRAo-Nnr OF THE oRoNIN CASE,
Some One Reported to Have Squealed
and Arrests Expected.

CHICAGO, June 27.-The grand jury took
new track in the Cronin case this morning,
and once more started in to look up Alex
ander Sullivan's speculations. Scewartz &
Neppee were subpenaed to bring their
books into the grand jury room
for inspection. 1t is believed that
in this way light will be thrown
upon the features of Alexander Sullivan's
speculating record which has hitherto
escaped scrutiny. The actions of the police
indicate that some arrests are about TO be
made. Some one is reported to have
''squealed.n The police refuse to say who,
and rumor has it that the drag net is about
TO land some of the conspirators high and
dry.
CAUSE OF BEGGs' ARREST.
Detective Palmer says Johh F. Beggs was
arrested to prevent his holding communica-
tion with the outside world 1t is claimed
that Beggs had been visiting members of
the alleged trial committee, and it was
thought that he had put flea into the ear
of more than one of the committee.
States Attorney Longenecker received a
reply to-day to his advertisement which he
inserted in the papers two days ago asking
the writer OF the anonymous letter in regard
to the recent trial in Camp 20 to meet him.
DRIFT OF THE LETTER.
The letter stated that DIR. Cronin was
tried by an sinner clrcen in camp 20.
It gave what purported to be the names
of the men who formed the trial commit
tee, and who formally decreed the death of
DR.. Cronin as British spy. The writer
said he himself had been a member Of the
trial committee, but had with
drawn when he beanie convinced
that the doctors death was intended.
The states attorney. in his advertisement,
stated that if the writer of the letter would
meet him and tell him what he knew he
would be given protection. An answer
was received to-day, and it said that the
writer was willing to accept the PROPOSE
tion to tell all he knew. He would meet

CAMP NO. 20 HASN'T DIsBANDED.
PEORIA, ILL, June 27.-Edward Spell
man, district delegate for the Clan-na-G Gael,
in an interview last night in reference to
the alleged disbanding of Camp No. 20 Of
Chicago, says positively that the camp was
not disbanded as stated, and that it would
not be. He further said: "If the states
attorney calls upon me for the records
will produce them for him at any time he
may desire. Camp No. 20 has no
connection with the Cronin affair.
The dead man was a member
of Camp No. 234, and had not been a MEM
ber of Camp No. 20 for over five years. The
idea that he was tried by Camp No. 20 is
erroneous. A member of,one camp could not
be tried by the counsel of another one.
There is nothing in the records of Camp
No. 20 which we are not willing for the

A Question Whether They May Cross
United States Territory.
WAsHINToN, June 27.-Some time ago
the treasury department was informed that
it was desired to take number Of Chinese
laborers to the West Indies, and application
was made for permss ion to take them
through United States territory in transit,
provided bond was given that none of them
would remain in the country. The matter
was referred to the solicitor of the treasury
and he gave an opinion that there was
nothing In the law to prohibit landing
Chinese for the mere purpose Of passing
through the country. Secretary Window,
however, was not prepared to change the
existing regulation to this effect, and direc-
ted the rejection of the application until
the question could be considered more
thoroughly. No further action on the sub
ject is at a i likely, however, as it is under
stood that arrangements have been made
with the Canadian transportation com
panies by which the Chinese will be taken
across the continent without the necessity
of entering United States territory.

Hasty interference in Balkan Episodes
Deprecated.
VIENNA, June 27.-Count Kalkony, ad-
dressing committee of Hungarian dele
gates to-day, said he was skeptical regard
ing the reported revolt at Noyi Bazaar. He
objected to the pessimist Judgments on
Austria-Hungary's eastern policy, which
was founded upon the spontaneous devel-
opment of Balkan independence,
and was necessarily slow in its ef.
fects. He expressed doubt as to
whether the Russo-Servian conference was
mooted, and said he had no reason to dis
trust the Servian regents. He also said that
he approved the principle Of Bulgarian de-
velopment and accepted Roumanias
Jealous tentatives for Independence. This
unselhsh, treaty-observing policy was the
best refutation of the imputation of ag-
grandizemeut. He had firm belief in the
formation of states possessing vitality
in themselves as closing phase of the east
ern question. He was ardently desiious of
deferring war as long as possible. Better
by far barren military expenditures. He
deprecated hasty interference in minor
Balkan episodes as prejudicial to greater
interests
