COOLEY is CHAIRMAN.
National Convention of Railroad
Commissioners.

National Convention of Railroad
Commissioners.
WASHINGTON, D. c., May 2S.-A ma
siOners met here to-day. The subjects
which it was called to consider relate to
railroad legislation, uniformity III rail-
way accounting, railway construction
and so forth. Judge Cooley, the chair
man of the Interstate commerce COM
mission, called the convention to order
and made a brief opening address.
Judge Cooley was elected chairman and
E. A. Mosely secretary. The report of
the committee on legislation, appointed
at the last meeting, was then read.
The report states that there were two
causes for the lack of uniformity
In railway legislation in this coun-
try; the first cause was the want OF
harmony between the legislation of con-
gress and that of the state legislatures;
and the second cause was the want of
harmony i'll the legislation of the differ
ent states. The report recommended
that the main features of the interstate
commerce law be made a part of the
laws of the different states. 1t was also
urged that laws be enacted by congress
tails of railroad equipment and manage
ment, with view to the greater safety
and comfort of employees and the public.
The recommendations of the report were
ordered to be printed. The days session
was consumed in discussing a series of
resolutions embodying the views eX-
pressed in this report. During the
session statement compiled by the
statistician of the interstate commerce
commission was submitted to the con-
ventiOn, showing the number of persons
killed and injured in railway accidents
in the United States during the year
ending June 80, 1889. This statement
shows that during that time, 5,S23 per-
sons were killed and 26,309 injured. Of
the number killed, 1872 were employees,
80 were passengers, and 3,54l were de-
nominated ''other persons" Of the in
jured 20,02S were employees, 2. .l46 were
passengers and 4, 1876 were other per-
sons. The statement further says:
"The railways of the United States
carried 472, III, ,343 passengers during
the year, covered by this statement,
from which it appears that one pas
senger in every 1923, 1873 was killed
and one passenger in every 220, ,204 was
injured. For the year 1888. the ratio of
casualty in England to passengers from
railroad accidents was one passenger in
6,942,3 ,336 killed and one passenger in
527,577 injured In judging of the
above figures, it should be noted that
passenger mileage for given number
of tickets sold, is much greater in the
United States than in England, fact
which mitigates somewhat the severity
of judgment upon railway manage
ment in the United States, disclosed in
the above comparison" The number
of railway employees in the United
States is given as 7O4. .736.

Presidents Of Northwestern
Lines Decide to Restore
Passenger Rates.
An Ironelad Agreement Good
for Sixty Days From
June 10.
No Line Can Withdraw With
out Giving Thirty Days
Notice.
Prospect That East-Bound
All-Rail Tariffs Will Be
Advanced Soon.

CHICAGO, May 2s.-The end of the
Western passenger rate war is at hand.
A meeting of the general passenger
agents of all the interested lines will be
held tomorrow afternoon for the pur-
pose of fixing a date for the restoration
of rates. The Wisconsin Central has
yielded, and is now ready to become a
member of the new association, without
any stipulation as to the speed of trains
between Chicago and st. Paul. Indeed,
it has already signed the agreement.
This removes the only apparent OBJ
stacle to the establishment of peace,
and there is no reason to doubt that the
ten days notice required by law will be
given tomorrow of an advance in pas
senger rates throughout the territory
where they have been cut.

BEHIND THE BARS AGAIN.
A Fugitive Forger Nabbed by
Quaker Detectives.

quaker D0I0CELVeS.
PHILADELPHIA, May 2S.-Thomas j.
Basso. thirty-two years old, ex-chief of
detectives of New Orleans, La. who es-
capped from the state penitentiary at
Baton Rouge, where he was serving
sentence of fourteen years on convic-
ton for forgery OH Nov. 20, 1886,
was arrested In this city to-
night by Detectives Miller and
Tall and Special Officer Balls
ton, of the Twentieth district. He was
locked up at the central station and the
authorities of New Orleans were noti-
fed by telegraph of his arrest. The
man admits that he is the one wanted,
and talks freely of his past life. After
making his escape, ne went at once to
South America and remained until his
health became undermined by disease,
when he resolved to return to
he might escape detection. He
landed in New York, homeless, friend
less and almost penniless; and, after
failing to secure employment, came to
this city. where he fell into the hands
of the police. Basso was appointed on
the police force of New Orleans in 1879,
when he was but twenty-one years of
age. He proved to be an efficient off
Ger, and was promoted from time to
time until 1888, when he was made chief
of the detective force, serving un-
til the time of his conviction in
1885. The crime of which he was con-
yicted was the forging ofsthe signature
of Judge Voorhees, to marriage certiti-
cate by means of which he betrayed
Katherine Kuhn, eighteen years old.
He represented to the girl that he was
a single man and that the certificate
was all that was necessary to make
their marriage legal. He took her to a
watering place, and after remaining for
Two weeks abandoned her and returned
to his home.. When the girl dis
covered the deception she armed
herself and meeting Basso on the
street, shot him, the ball entering his
right side, and producing what was be-
lieved to be fatal wound, but he re-
covered after lying in the hospital for
several months. The girl was arrested
for the shooting, but was afterward ac-
quilted, the grand jury refusing to in
dict her. There was no law under which
Basso could be tried for deceiving Miss
Kuhn, but he was indicted for forgery,
and, having no defense, was convicted
and was given the full penalty of the
law.

WASHINGTON, May 2s.-Secretary
Window has sent letter to George F.

H., in regard to the enforcement of the
alien contract labor laws, with respect
to aliens coming In from Canada, in
which he says:
"Y0u call my attention to the follow

l assume from your letter that this

1t contains proposition to pay good,
competent carpenter from 80 to 40 cents
per hour and give him steady employ

ing the order, coming to the United
States, and engaging in labor for the
builders exchange. If an alien does
accent that proposition, does come to
the United States, and does labor for
the builders exchange, he complies
with his part of all that Is involved
In the proposition. The minds of
the offerer and of the acceptor
meet and thus torn one of

In my Judgment, if the above conditions
and facts could be proven in court, it
would be held that the builders ex-

scribed by the law. / have no doubt of
the right of the officers appointed by
the secretary to make the proper invest

the incoming alien is here in violation
of the law, without reference to the
place where the investigation may, from
the nature of the case. be required to be
made. 1t is important that immigrant

Missourians Want the Blood of
Murderer Moore.

SEDALIA, Mo-, May 28.-The discOv-
cry made to-day that John Williamson,
under arrest for the murder of Jefferson
Moore and his son, Charles Moore, was
also the probable murderer of his own
wife, has aroused storm Of Indignation
against the prisoner. Sheriff Smith to-
day received Information that a lynching
party was being organized of MoOre's
neighborhOod, and that an attempt
would probably be made upon the Jail

and Williamson was known to have
beaten his wife. One day she disap-
peared; Williamson said she had gone
to Illinois to visit relatives. had been
taken sick and had died, and had been
buried there, he being too poor to bear
the expense of the removal OF the body
to Sedalia: Williamson soon vacated
GU6 OldoSCl UCCouiC tuO
tenant. When Classer took possession
Williamson pointed out one plat of
ground. where he said he had
planted parsnips, which he did not dis
turb. The Moore murder recalled Mrs.
Williamson's disappearance, and a
search on Classer's farm for her body
was made. 1t was found buried i'll a
shallow grave ON WilliamsOn's parsnlp
patch. It was in a fair state of pre-
servation. Abrazed skin around
the neck gave evidence that
Mrs. Williamson had been gar
roted. Mrs. Moore, the widow of
Jefferson Moore was arrested to-day for
alleged completely in the murder of her
husband and son. In statement made
by Williamson TO the chief of police he
said: "Mrs. Moore and son, William
O'Bannon, by former marriage, had
induced him to commit the crime for
S3OO.'' Mrs. Moore's arrest was made
on the strength of this statement.

New YORK, May 2S.-The differences
in regard to passenger rates i'll the
Northwest were ali adjusted to-day, and
an agreement was signed by all the
roads to restore passenger rates to the
tariff in effect on December 8. The

The situation in the Southwest con-
tinues unchanged. The parties having

in that section state that the matter
rests entirely with Jay Gould. If he
orders his subOrdinateS to restore rates,
the other roads will follow at once.

prominent young men. had some hot
words over the latter's attentions to
Barlow's sixteen-year-old sister. The

thought about it until last night. when
the two met in front of the Gem

the liver. The wounded man died in
four hours after. When Goudine fired
the first shot, the firing became general
among the crowd gathered in front of
