ENFORCING PROHIBITION.
AN Important Injunction Granted by an
Iowa Judge.


Iowa Judge.
WAvERLY, Iowa, March 19.-Judge
Ruddick yesterday granted temporary
injunction against the Burlington, Cedar
Rapids & Northern Railroad Company
and @. ], Fossellman, agent for 81.
Louis brewing company, restricting
them from bringing beer into lEaverly.
The complainant was DR.. ]. Billbrook, q
Methodist minister. Fossellman was
taking orders for the firm and subse.
quently delivering the beer, which or.
rived by the car load. The cars were
allowed 10 remain on the side tracks
until the beer was delivered. Fossell.
mans attorney held that tho sale was
consummated In ST. Louis, while coun.
sci for the railroad argued that under
the decision OF the United States Su.
preme Court, the road was obliged to
accept the beer, which he claimed had
been treated the same as any other
freight. The judge held, however, that
the brewers had no right to have an
agent in Iowa, and that when Fossell-
man took orders and delivered their
goods hero the sale was completed In
Iowa and was illegal. He also held that
the railroad agent, knowing how such
sales were made, should not have per
mitted them on the premises Of the
road, and therefore granted tho In
junction In both cases.

it. One Of them is the wife Of one of the
suspected men and the other is reported 10
be the mistress ofone. It was ascertained
that the women were TO occupy the same
room on Tuesday night and an officer Sc
cured room adjoining. When the women
retired the officer heard them discuss the
robbery, the plan and the details.
The husband of the married
woman had failed to put in
his appearance, and his wife was
alarmed at his absence, saying that she
feared he had been shot. The other re-
piled that her lover was alright, as he had
sent her $50 on that day. The officer heard
the woman call the names of those sus-
pected of the robbery, and ON Thursday
when they put in their appearance they
were promptly arrested Iii stated that
the parties arrested fail utterly to give any
account of their whereabouts ON the night
of the robbery. The women above referred
to were arrested at late hour last night,
and upon searching theirtrunks two pack
ages of jewelry were found, which 1t is
claimed were taken from the express car.
They have not been allowed to commune
cate with the men and will be kept apart
until further investigation. 1t is reported
that many startling facts are about ready
to be given the public.

BASE BALL MATTERS.
Probability Of the Uniiication Of the Brother
hood and American Association.

Probability Of the Unification Of the Brother
hood and American Association.
COLUMBUS, O.. November 29.-Unless the
present base ball deal miscarries the Ameri-
can association and Brotherhood will
make common cause against the National
league in ten cities next season. Prelimi-
nary arrangements have been concluded,
and the only thing now necessary is the
formal acceptance of the proposed plan of
amalgamation by the committee of the
Brotherhood, who will meet at fremont
house, Chicago, for that purpose within a
few days, or at least some time before the
meeting of the American association in
this city on the 10th proximo. The propo-
sition is to combine the present Brother
hood teams in Chicago Pittsburg, Buffalo,
New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Cleve-
land and Indianapolis, with Association
teams at Columbus and st. Louis, merging
the Athletic and Brotherhood clubs in
Philadelphia, dropping the Louis
vile and Baltimore clubs en-
tirely. The Association clubs concerned
in the deal will sign all their men and then
make open war upon the national league
by joining the Brotherhood at its Decem-
her meeting.
Last Monday the finance committee OF
the American association held secret
session here. At that conference were
Messrs Won der Abe, Whitaker, Phelps and
Lazarus. During the meeting John M.
Ward and Allen w. Thurman, son of the
"Old Roman" were introduced and after a
long conference the deal was arranged as
above subject to approval of other Brother
hood leaders. A. L. johnson, who was alb
sent, telegraphed his approval of the
scheme

and was followed out by Childress, who
asked what the amount of the bill was.
Upon the reply being made Childresscalled

THE GREAT PUGILIsr APPEARS AHIp
THE RUINS OF THE BOSTON
FIRE,
And Talks Freely About His Proposed Fight
with the Negro, jackson, on the
Pacific Coast.

BosfoS, November 29.--John l.. Sullivan
was met at the scene of the great fire this
morning. In his waistooat pocket he had
dispatch just received from California,
but already wrinkled and soiled from hand
ling and reading.
Look at that said the proud cham
pion. Maybe people who think that am
played out will change their minds No
body in this little world had admirers will,
ing to put up $4,000 to see him fight, and
no one ever will after I'm dead

teeing SIS, 600 to the winner of the finish

sullivan and jackson, the negro fighting
prodigy.
like it, because il shows there is some APP
probation of real fighting left IN this conn
try. In fact, it proves that the ring Is
growing in favor again. Why, II It
were not for laws the people would never
get Sunday school votes. There would be
such fighting enthusiasm in this country as
old timers never dreamed Of Why do they
offer me such big money TO sfightG Well,
III tell you. You see we have been licking
pretty near everybody so easily that, hon-
estly must confess folks hardly get their
moneys worth. if II man stood up 20 fight
me why he always went to sleep before the
fun had really time to begin. Men who
have stayed in the ring for while
have done il by running all the time. and
of course it is not worth $1,000 TO see one
man run away from another. Now,ycn
see, they think they've got really a great
man in the black fellow, and that he is
going TO make me work and do big fight
ing | hope they have. A good fight is a
good thing. I'd like to get at man who
really could fight"

this $4,000 invitation If jackson can get
out of his ridiculous contract binding him

" OLD HUTCH"
The Famous Chicago Stock Dealer Supposed
to Be at His Tricks.

The Famous Chicago Stock Dealer Supposed
to Be at His Tricks.
CHICAGO, November 29.-"Old Hutch"
has been caught mapping This, at least,
was the popular opinion on Change this
morning Shippers of corn, headed by
Boyden & Co. and Norton Worthington,
quietly engineered the squeeze in November
corn which caught the old gentleman, along
with host of smaller victims. The east
ern markets have favored corn shippers all
the season. This has been the case to such
an extent that purchasers here, by the
shipping interest, have vastly exceeded
stocks. All of the corn thus purchased has
been sold In New York and other eastern
markets, and shippers are now calling on
sellers to deliver their property. Re-
ceiving firms who sold corn against
actual grain turnouts for market have not
been able to deliver property as only
small proportion of it grades contract"
An arrival of spectators who sold short on
a general example set by receiving firms
and their only way of getting it is to go
into the pit and bid for it. This is what
they did this morning and run the price up
from "a ID to 4311 during the first hour of
session. There are those who believe the
deal is Hutchinson's and that shipping
firms are simply being used by him as a
bird.
The crowd would very much like to be-
lieve that the cold Man. was being
shanked for his tactics in the September
wheat deal, but there is every probability
that they will be disappointed.
The deal, nevertheless, is being run for
blood with no signs of let up on the part
of the people behind it.
So unprepared were the keen scalpers
who are nothing if not watchful for signs of
such movements that one of their number
sold 10000 bushels for November declining
at 35&. Just for scalp as he said when he
made the sale.A few minutes later he paid
Al cents to get it back $3.50, the scalp's
hanging to the other mans belt. The sub
sequent course of the market proved that
the last purchase was wise even if the
previous sale had been foolish. The open
ing price of November was 33H and about
the same sales were made at from "a to
34N. The price quickly advanced amid
great excitement to 80, 36K, 39K, then off
to 3S, upward once more, reaching on the
second stretch go cents. 1t it is predicted
that the price will be put up to 81 tomor-
row.

Conspiracy to Defraud.

PITTsBURe, Pa, November 29.--Alcer-
men Callen, Doughty and Manese and De-
tectives Bauder, Druple, Nagle and Bender
were convicted of conspiracy to defraud in
accepting brides to settle illegal liquor
selling. The cases were sentenced this
morning by Judge White, of the criminal
court. Callen got three years in the work
house, Doughty one year and Manese six
months in Jail. j. ID. Bander and his chief
detective each got three years in the work
house, Nagle one year and Bender six
months in Jail. The aldermen are quite
prominent and wealthy and always stood
high in the community. Their method
was to>haye the detectives enter suit against
unlicensed liquor dealers and then settle
the case for consideration without report
ing the matter to court.

a rash one. If Lord Roseberry meant
that the house of lords ought

THE BUSINESS SITUATION.
Condition of the General Trade Throughout
the Countrywide Iron and Other Trades.

Condition OF IHc Utneral lfhut Throughout
the Countrywide Iron and Other Trades.
New YORK, November Or. G. Dun &
Co.'S. weekly review of trade says: Two
heavy fires, with an aggregate loss esti-
mated at SIS, 100000 or more, may have an
influence upon several branches of trade
which cannot yet be estimated. Heavy
concurrent losses may shake some insur-
ance companies and effect the finances of
firms burned out, but the general prosperi-
ty and large accumulation of available
capital will probably render the influence
of the disasters comparatively narrow and
brief In other respects the situa-
ton is quite as encouraging as it
has been for weeks past. The
volume of business is unsurpassed and the
pressure in the money markets, though not
ended here, has seemed to be abating else
where.
Reports from other cities are,s without
exception, favorable on the whole. Trade
at Boston prior to Thursday had been i'm
proving in wool, with sales OF 100000
pounds.
Cotton goods are strong, with the mills
well employed and prices strengthening.
Metal manufactures are firm with wide
distribution of products.
AT Philadelphia iron products are in
strong demand. Money was tight, but
with a prospect Of ease within ten days.
