Then there came along silence-a great
blank-and how many hours after I do

The Railroad Gazette. in commenting on
the double taxation system in Ohio, of rail-

which has now been reaffirmed, drove away
nearly all the Big -Four Stock from Cincin-

majority of it has passed into New York

feel at ease regarding his reelection at the
coming annual meeting, yet others express
the opinion that little opposition to him

Mr.. Roberts, no matter what his motives
may be, has been diligently occupied In
securing proxies for all the holdings of
stock within his reach. He has, it is under
stood, left the larger stockholders severely
exclusively to the small holders. The stock
of the Pennsylvania railroad is held very
largely in England in small lots, of from
ten to one hundred shares. 1t is considered
In England almost as safe an investment as

Suing Her LAWYER.

Mary A. Humphrey yesterday brought
suit in Judge Walkers room against Judge
Reuben s. Logan to cancel a $50 note and
a mortgage given by her to him for legal as
sistance, which, she claims. she never re-
ceived. In January, 1886, she was arrested
on the charge of violating the pension laws,
and in default of bail, was put in
Jail to await her trial, where
she remained during the entire
year. In December she wrote a letter to
President Cleveland, asking for an explana-
tion of the delay, and through the influence
of Judge Turpie, then the district attor-
ney, finally secured a hearing, was
sentenced, and served out her term. She
now claims that it was the letter and not
LOgan's work that finally got her a trial,
and she asks for the recovery of the fees
paid hin

A Case of Contradictions.

The witnesses in the trial of Jno. Daglish.
for the murder OF Thomas Downey, were
before the grand jury yesterday, he being
held under $4,000 bond by order of acting
Mayor Afford. The testimony so far re-
ceived in the preliminary examination is
of a somewhat contradictory character, as
there have been sworn statements made
to the effect that Daglish vas alone with
Downey and the James woman when
the killing was done, and then again that
there were four men involved in the fight.
1T is my opinion" said John S. Duncan,
Daglish's attorney, yesterday, that the
James girl is not telling all that she knows.
There is no doubt in my mind about Dag
lish's innocence, for it has been testified
that there were other parties there. 1t is q
mixed-up case, but / think time will
straighten il all up"

AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS.



Rnmor has it that the Cairo & Vincennes
road is to become a part of the Pennsyl-
vania company's lines. The fact that Gem
eral Manager McCrea, General Superin-
tendent Miller, of the Southwestern lines,
and NJ. j. Becker. chief engineer. and other
less important officials of the Pennsylvania
Company, are spending two daysin looking
at the property gives color to such rumors,
1t is well known that large blocks of the
stock of the c. Il V. nave of late passed into
the hands of the Drexel-Morgan party. and
il is believed that it has been purchased IN
the interest of the Pennsylvania Company.
The c. & V. would be a valuable South
western outlet for the Pennsylvania Com
pany through its connection with the lnd1-
annapolis a. Vincennes road, and would give
the Pennsylvania Company the short line
to the Southwest. With proper encourage
ment a large cotton and live stock traffic
northward could be built up.

HELP OR We PERISH
Is the Macedonian Cry From
Nelson County in Da-
kOta.
Active Measures of Relief by
the st. Paul Chamber Of
Commerce.
Contributions by Citizens Will
Be Placed for the Most
Good.
A Report to the Governor Of
the Condition Of Marshall
County.

At short session of the chamber o
commerce held yesterday morning,
communication was received from the
secretary of the Nelson county, Dakota,
relief committee, detailing the destitu-
ton among settlers i'll that district, and
asking food and clothes.
Mr. Marvin, chairman of the relief
committee, reported the progress made
during the past week. \ quantity OF
clothing and $500 in cash had been re-.
ceiVed. A special agent had been en-
gagged to supervise the distribution and
attend to all matters III connection
with the relief. a request had
been sent to all the city churches
to take up special collection
next Sunday, or as soon there
after as might be convenient. in aid OF
the sufferers. Letters had been received
from both North and South Dakota
more than confirming the reports OF
distress previously sent in. In South
Dakota were three counties III which
there were over 1000 families entirely
destitute. This country was along the
line of the Northwestern railroad. and
the company had been requested to
transport supplies free. The committee
bad also communicated with the authOri-
ties of Sioux City, Sioux Falls and
other towns in the neighbOrhOOd, in
curing what measures had been taken
for the relief OF the distressed sufferers.
Emphasis was laid OH the fact that all
contributions would be gladly received
and forwarded with as little delay as
possible.
Secretary Tallmadge reported that
the reception extended the Pan-Amer-
leans had been very successful. An adj
jOurnment was taken at 9:15. The joint
relief committee of the chamber of COM
merce ana jObberS' union held a meet
ing yesterday and organized for the
benefit of the sufferers in Dakota.
MIR. Marvin was elected president; Z.
w. Hackett, treasurer; A. Ii. Tall
madge, secretary, and George Nj. Clark
agent. 1t was decided to forward
clothing, food and fuel as soon as pos
Sible, and leave to the state the care OF
the stock, All the churches will be
called upon to make contributions OF
money, as we'll as clothing, and, OH
some day in the near future, to be
named. vans will traverse the principal
streets and make a house to house col
lection for the benefit of the sufferers:
The public will receive due notice when
this collection is to be made, aud ii is
hoped that all contributions VIII be on
the most liberal scale. a very made
quate idea of the extent of the
distress prevails. but sufficient
is known to warrant the state
ment that it is simply APP
palling. Over 10000 people are reduced
to the last stage of restitution, lacking
even the cOmmonest necesSaries OF life.
For the present the committee will con-
centrate ali its efforts in the relief of
sufferers in North Dakota. In Sonth
Dakota there are upwards of 1000 fam
lies destitute, but as they are surround
ed by pOpulous centers it is thought
they can be taken care of nearer home.

The Real Short Line.

There is a great deal of talk just now
in the papers about "Short Lines" to
this, that and the other point. From
some of the claims put forth the public
would get the iuea that the railroad
having the least mileage between two
given points is the "Short Line" be-
yOnd a question. But is it? Is no ac-
count to be made of time. comfort or ac-
Communications? Is not the true "Short
Line" the one which makes the best
time, has the smOOthesS rOadbed and
furnishes the best accommodations? If
these considerations have any weight,
it will be found that "Ihe Burlington"
is the real Short Line from the Twin
Cities to Chicago.
The mileage is little more than that
of one or two of the older lines, but it
makes the best running time, is the
only light-grade thOroughfare, and has
an equipment unequaled for elegance
and comfort.
The first train over the line, Oct. "a,
1856, made the run from st. Paul to Chi
cagO in eleven hours and ten minutes;
st. Faul TO La ClOSSe. Nov. ), 132 miles,
in 125 mnuteS-time that has never
been equaled or approached.
The idea that THE Burlington" is
longer line than others is totally errO-
nenuS. Travellers will find it the Real
Short Line.
