CHICAGO, July 25. = The following
statement as to the situation of affairs in
the Trsnscontinental Railway Associa-
ton was made to reporter of the As
sociated Press this afternoon by very
prominent member of the association !:
"The published reports as to the terms
asked by the Canadian Pacific in the
matter of differentials are inaccurate.
The fact is at yesterdays meeting the
question of differentials was referred by
the general meeting to the Executive Com.
mittee, and by that committee referred
to subcommittee Of four. This COM
mittee made unanimous report, but it
was not entirely satisfactory to either the
Southern Pacific or the Canadian Pacific,
and is now held under consideration by
the Executive Committee.
"You may say that the association is
not going to pieces. There is feeling in
the association and it has only one or
two exceptions, that there should be no
diferentials. At the same time, in the
interests of harmony, small differentials
will be conceded"
No definite progress was made today
toward settling the dispute. The
proposition is still under consideration
by the Executive Committee. With one
or two exceptions, the members are all in
favor of abolishing differentials, but in
the interest of harmony they will make
some concessions.

LAUGHING PARALYZED.
Joseph Oscar Johnson COndemne G
to Laugh All HIS Life.

Joseph Oscar Johnson Condemne e d
to Laugh All HIS Life.
Joseph Oscar johnson was sent to Rofi
Home few days ago, and his case is
probably one of the most remarkable
that ever went to that or any other hospi-
tai. He is q paralytic, and one side is
entirely useless. The stroke came on
him some two months ago. He
is locomotive engineer, and was able
to make good living. He had seen a
good deal OF the world, and
generally saw the bright side of it.
1t was in the town of Clinton, s. c., that
the stroke came on him. He was on a
run that carried him into that town. He
was one day doing some work on his
engine and talking to someone standing
near. At the moment he received the
strange to say, the muscles and nerves
of the face that are brought most into
play in the act of laughing are the ones
that are the most affected, and
over these he has no control
whatever. He feels, OF course, like
there is little left for him to live for, be-
ing utterly helpless, and it is necessarily
a sad thought for him. But he cannot
think of it or tell of his troubles and the
doubts and fears that torment him with
out laughing. He has a wife and five
children, and when this affliction came
upon him he went to his father-in-law,
who lived Wilmington, N. c., and told
him of his condition and of his inability
to care further for his family, and tel
ling him at the same time that for
himself he did not wish to
be burden upon any one, but would 60
somewhere and seek seclusion and
calmly await the closing of what was
henceforth to be useless life. The re-
cital of the parting with his wife was
most pathetic and heart-rending, yet with
tears in his eyes and heart full of
agony, he was forced to laugh as though
he had been telling the most ludicrous
incident.
He has wandered from one country to
another, and has frequently gone several
days without morsel to eat. Recently
he spent night in the woods in vic.
lent rainstorm. His crippled leg refused
to serve him longer, and he was COM
pelled, without shelter, to take the vio-
lence of the storm. Hie thin clothing
was wet to the skin, he suffered the
pangs Of hunger, and the recital
of it made him shudder all
over, yet he laughed all the time he was
telling it. 1t was most pitiful sight.
He says he dares not go to church, lest
he be accused of making sport of the
services and be requested to leave the
church. And as for funeral, it would
be out of the question for him to attend
one.
His case is a pitiable one, and is the
more so because he is only awaiting the
only relief possible for him, and that one
he would hail with pleasure and almost

Election Expenses,

J. f. Hallook, State Controller,
has written letter 20 j. V. Julien,
County Clerk, advising him that
before the claims for the expenses
of the late election are PAID, they
will have TO be acted upon by the
State Board OF Examiners. BY an
act that was passed, fifteen thous-
and dollars was appropriated to
desray the expenses OF the election,
and the Beard of County Commiss-
toner's IN the respective counties
where requi.ed to certify these
expenses to the State Controller,
who, upon the receipt OF the GER
tifcate was required to draw his
warrant upon the State Treasury
in favor of the Chairman OF the
Board OF County Commissioners
for the amount SO certified. The
stand taken by the State Controller
NAV be provoked by a safe degree
of caution, but it apparently is in
the face of a mandatory law. 1t
may be possible that the law Is in
conflict with certain provisions OF
the Constitution. If this be SO,
then the probabilities a-'e that fur
Their legislation will be necessary to
liou,date these claims, which
should have been honored by the
county directly, rather than by the
indirect route through the State
Treasury. In some counties the
expenses are nearly double what
they are in other counties repre-
senting greater taxable property.
