NEW DELAWARE RAILROAD.


Fruit Growers az Delaware ssssl Mary fard
secure New Ron:e Il Sew N~Ii.
DovEg. Del. March 1 IL Roger Max
well. president of tie New Jersey Central
Railroad company, has made an agree
ment with +. Tnielens, OF Philadelphia,
to develop the Baltimore and Delaware
and the smyrna and Delaware Bay rail-
roads in connection with their New Jer-
sey Central system.
Those two roads viii be consolidated
under the name Of the Delaware, New
York and Boston Railroad company.
The new line Will be entirely overhauled,
relaid with ste, rails and furnished with
good rolling stock.
The road runs from Smyrna TO Toll
chester via Chestertown, Nd, on the
Chesapeake bay, and from Smyrna TO
Bombay Hook, on the Delaware, where
a large float viii take the cars over TO
Bay Side, the terminal of the Jersey
Southern. The road traverses one of the
most fertile regions of the peninsula and
will undoubtedly absorb large portion
of the peach business. The calculation
is to deliver all truck shipped over this
road during the day at 3 o'clock the fol-
lowing morning in Jersey City. Through
freight to Boston via the Poughkeepsie
bridge will reach Boston seven hours
ahead of any schedule now in operation.
The line will prove acceptable to the
farmers of Delaware and Maryland, for
it will give them another outlet TO New
York and Boston.

neslering the President.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE presi-
dent had anything but an easy time yes
terday. The two hours in the forenoon
that he has set apart for receiving dele
cations and other callers were occupied
busily. Many delegations called. Conspicu-
Gus among those who waited a chance
to see the president in the ante-room
were ex-senator Malone and Represen-
tative Bowden, of Virginia. They were
accompanied by ex-Postmaster General
Baton. and it is understood that their bust
ness with the president is in regard to
the distribution of general patronage in
Virginia. They remained with the preSi-
dent only few minutes. A large dele
cation of ministers and ladies represent
ing the Indian educational association
had long conference. Two District Of
Columbia delegations came to urge can
didates for district offices. AS on former
days the majority OF the callers were
senator's and representatives of congress,
nearly all of whom had at least one
friend in tow. 1t was noticeable that a
number of Democratic congressman sue
ceeded in seeing the president. Among
these were Senator's Coke and Reagan,
of Texas: Brown, Of Georgia and Kenna,
of West Virginia and Wheeler, of Ala
bama. Other callers were Senator
Spooner, Jones (Nevada), Paddock, Man
derson, Hiscock, Farwell, Teller Con-
gresham Townsend, OF Colorado and
Representative Mckinley.
A few privileged callers saw the presi-
dent after - O'Clock. These were the
vice president, Secretaries Blaine, Noble,
and Attorney General Miller. At half
past the president went down in the
east room and shook hands with about
200 people who were there.

POLICY Of the Rcpublican senator.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE Repub-
hcan members of the senate committee
on privileges and elections held confer
ence to decide what action the committee
should take under the resolution passed
by the senate giving the committee priv
After two hours discussion the confer
ence, without arriving at any conclusion,
adjourned. The alleged election frauds
and outrages in Louisiana and Texas
were under discussion. and it is probable
that the conference will decide to have
the committee ON privileges and cleo
tons investigate them during the sum-
mer, and for that purpose Viii, as COM
mittee, visit Texas and Louisiana.

WASHINGTON, March 14.-RecentIy tie
court of claims allowed Col. John S.
Mosby 81, 900 for fees collected by him
while consul to Hong Kong, but turned
into the treasury instead of being re-
tanned. He came here few days ago to
collect the amount. but found to his sur
prise an appeal had been taken by the
state department. The time allowed for
an appeal in this kind of case is ninety
appeal just when eighty-seven days had
expired. The claim now goes on the SUI
preme court docket, and it will probably
be several years before it can be reached.

LANCASTER. Pa. March 13.--The one
hundred thirteenth annual session of the
Philadelphia conference of the Methodist
Episcopal church is in progress here.
There is an attendance of 1874 ministers.
The usual standing committees were APP
pointed. 1t was decided TO consider rec
ommedations for admission on trial on
the travelling connection in secret ses-
sion. The last general conference passed
an act creating church board to receive
and administer all funds raised by all
the annual conferences for the relief of
the claimants ON the funds, instead of
each annual conference discussing its
own funds to its claimants. DIR. Paxson

action. This conference will maintain
said fund and continue the operation of
it by its Preachers Aid society as heretol
fore. Contributions of $500 from the

Death-Gixing Oxygen.

1t is curious fact, discovered by Dr. b.
W. Richardson, that pure oxygen becomes
deyitalized by repeated inhalations. AMI
mails confined in current of freshly-made,
pure oxygen were differently affected, but
never became sleepy; but when the oxy-
gen. once inhaled, was freed from all known
impurities and again supplied, the animals
invariably became drowsy, fell asleep, and.
under successive inhalations OF the purined
gas, expired. 1t was evident that, in breath
ing, the oxygen had undergone some change
unknown 10 the chemist What the change
is can only be conjectured, though DR.. hich'
ardson has found that if the exhausted oxy'
gen be electrically charged il is reyitaiized'

Uncle Sam Goes to Law.

ST. PAUL, Jan. 5--The United States has
commenced an action against the Northern
Pacific Railway company which involves
millions of dollars. 1t is charged that ever
since the road has been built, about 1869, it
has been trespassing upon government land
along the line, denuding government timber
lands and causing irremediable loss and dam
age to the government and its constituents
These encroachments were made upon lands
and timber domain in various parts of Idaho,
Washington Territory, Montana and Mime
sofa. The suit promises to be a prominent
one in the history of great government cases.
The great Importance is not merely in the
amount involved as pecuniary damage, but
lies in the interest to the states at large in
having so much of the timbered domain di-
vested of that for which it was chiefly valued
