A number Of papers in the terrific
ry have been harping upon the question
of Governor Moore's connection with
railroads. Mr.. Moore in his remarks at
the reception given in his honor at
Olympia firmly and positively states
that he has not dollar in railroads, but
that he believes in their being held rea-
sonably in check by wise Interstate
commerce law, supplemented by judi
cious state restriction. These are not
the words of man who is controlled by
a railroad corporation, and this state
ment Of his shows conclusively to fair
minded, thinking people, that the charg-
es of the press throughout the territory,
that he was tool OF the Northern Pa
ciic railroad company, to be lie. The
people Of the territory can depend on
one fact, and that is this, that Governor
Moore will not be the tool Of any corpor-
alton, ring or clique, but that he will be
governor for the benefit of the entire

During the winter of 1S70-71, Count Won
Moltke, while his headquarters were at YER
sailles, ran short of snuff Failing to find
any - snecshin" of the brand he likes in
the local tobacco stores, he instructed a
subordinate at the war Office i'll Berlin to
forward him packet of his Town PECULIAR
rappee The snuff was bought, paid for,
sent to Versailles, and duly charged to the
account of the nation. When the time came
for examining the books, after peace had
been concluded, the official intrusted with
the revision of the accounts of the war
Office came upon this startling item: I" For
one pound of extra fine, wilh-of-Tonquin-
bcan-perfume-highly snuff, by
his Excellency, the Count Won Moltke, COM
manded, three thalers, seven and a half
silber-groschen." The auditor would not
pass this unprecedented item, but made q
memorandum of the entry, referred it to
his superior, with the suggestion that as
snuff could not be held to be material nor
ammunition of war, it could not be saddled
upon the national eXchcquer. The item and
the suggestion passed from one official to
another, until it came to the crown lawyers,
who gave their opinion that the state could
not pay the snuff-claim. Won Moltze was
officially addressed and requested to pay for
his snuff, and he at once complied with the
demand

ing Richards to pay her $40 per month. Rlch-
ards offered in evidence the deed of separation,

REFUSED THE CHARTER,
Judge Ewing Thought the Purpose of Master
HOrseshOers Was Illegal

Judge Ewing Thought the Purpose of Master
HOrseshOers Was Illegal.
Judge Ewing, yesterday, refused to approve
the proposed charter of the Master Horsesboers'
Union. The application for the charter was
made by Henry Baker, j. R. Arthurs, Samuel
Mccartney, Andrew Pafenbach, William Fraz-
ier, stephen A. Vetter and William Breeze. In
his opinion refusing the charter, Judge Ewing
said:
THE object Of the proposed corporation as
set forth in the application is for the burmese
first, of encouraging and protecting the trade
of horseshoers in the cities of Pittsburo and
Allegheny; second, for preserving and
disseminating valuable business infoT-
nation, ard third, adjusting as far
as practicable controversies and misunder-
standings arising among the members as to
methods and prices of work. The first two
purposes are laudable and certainly nor Illegal
though how charter of incorporation Will aid
the association in carrying out the purposes is
difficult to see. The third purpose ayowed is
that of interfering with the natural laws of
trade and usurping the functions of govern
menT. 1t is contrary to a sound public policy
and, if not so intended, may readily be used To
shield the members behind the form of a cor
poration, from the consequences of illegal acts
and combinations. For this reason we refnse
to approve the proposed charter"

THOUGHT TO BE CRAZY.
Franz KeIner Acquitted on the Ground of
Insanity.

Insanity.
In the case of Franz Kelner, charged with
assault and battery by his wife, Catherine
Kelner, the jury were out but few minutes,
and returned 4 verdict of not guilty on account
of insanity. Kelner is a German and lived
with his wife on Nineteenth street. Last
spring he became queer and practiceu all man
ner of tricks Ito Danish the devil" as his wife
explained. She testified that on one occasion
he broke a lot of dishes and furniture, danced
on the dishes and drove nails in the furniture.
His explanation was that he wanted
to kill the devil He burned loose
paper at night as eharm and charged
his wife with allowing the devil to kiss and
fondle her. When Kelner was put on the
stand he denied breaking the dishes and furni-
ture and explained that he burned the paper
to kill reaches and bugs in the house. When
asked if he did do anything to keep the devil
away, be said he put wet rags in knot holes, as
he knew that was good charm. When given
his head. he talked so ramblingly that Judge
White stopped him and sent him from the
stand
Deputy Warden Marshall said that when
Kelner was taken to jail he had strings tied
about his ankles and when they were taken off
lot of old iron, paper and some herbs fell out.
After the jury's verdict of acquittal, Kelner
was taken back to jail, and will likely be sent
to Dixmout.
