SPIRITED AWAY.
It is Thought Seattle Man Has Been Put
Out of The Way by His
Brothers.

SEATTLE, WASH, March 31.-Homer
Brown is not to be found in Seattle, and
it is thought he has been spirited away.
For twenty-five years he has been kept
confined in an insane asylum by his
brothers. During the last eight years he
has been under the guardianship of his
brother Watson, who swore before the
probate court here that no property was
involved in his brothers. confinement.
John Fairfield, Homer 5 lawyer, has just
learned that there was considerable
property involved. He wrote Horatio
D. Brown, brother of Homer, who is a
bank president at Albert Lea, Mimi.
asking him to account for all the money
IN his hands belonging to Homer Brown.
This is thought to have caused
Homer Browns sudden disappearance.
In February 1859, Homer Brown received
a patent from the United States to $50
acres Of land which are now in the city
limits of Sioux City, Ia. In 1887 Watson
D. Brown was appointed guardian of
Homer, and the same year he sold Ho-
mer's land to Horatio d. Brown. Since
then part of this property has been sold
for over $40 900. These facts are ELECTED
from correspondence with officers of the
court in different places. a reward is to
be offered for information leading to the
discovery Of Homer Browns where
abouts People here are determined that
the case shall be ventilated. He was ad-
judged perfectly sane by the probate
court here,

THE FIELD TRANSFERRED.
The Bulk of Railroad Building is Now in tho
Southeastern States.

The Bulk of Railroad Building is Now in tho
Southeastern States.
There are certain developments az to
railway building that are of the deepest
interest to the people of the states of the
West and Northwest, especially of those
which have adopted stringent legislative
control of railway freight rates. There
are 503S miles of new road now building,
of which 1896 are east of the Mississippi.
There are 7051 miles, so far, projected
for construction this year, of which 1852
are east of that river. That is, three
ffths of the extension, so far, is in the
cis-Mississippi states. A few years ago
the bulk of new lines was west of that
river. Legislation looking to severe
state control of rates has check ed this,
and the bulk Of the new lines will be
built in states which have not adopted
such policy.
Pennsylvania and Georgia are the two
great railroad building states this year,
and the Atlantic coast, from Maine to
Florida, furnishes one-third of the lines
under construction and half of those
projected. In other words, the expan-
sion for this year is the extension Of lines
connecting New England and the Middle
states with the South Atlantic coast. This
shows that capital is not being invested
where there lie certainty of poor returns
or none at all. It is going where state
restriction is not practiced. But railroad
building means more competition, and
reduction of rates; and the extension of
new lines between the South and North
in the states named will recast railroad
relations along the entire strip of coast
between the Alleghanies and the Allan
tic. Its tendency will also be to reduce
freights on Southern products, n matter
which can but concern Northern and
Western producers. 1t will build up the
South, to the detriment OF the West. 1t
has always seemed TO US that the build
ing of more lines in the West, so as to
give competition and lower rates, and
thus build up the country, was the true
solution Of the problem. We advise the

GALVESTON, TEX, March 30.-At )
O'Clock this morning death CLAIMED all
that was mortal of Hon. Chauncey b.
Sabin, United States district judge of the
Eastern district of Texas. He had been
i'll for over a year, and unable to dis
charge the duties of his official station.
His death was directly due to heart fall
ure. Judge Sabin was native of New
York and was born in Oswego county,
that state, in 1924. On his father
side he was descendant of the Huege-
nots while his mother was Yandyke.
He studied law under Judge Hath
oway and was admitted to the bar
at New Albany in lS47. Shortly after
he came to Texas and located in Houston
and began the practice of his profession.
In 1851 be married Miss Hennbleu, who
survives him. In 1868 he went North
and remained until the close of the war.
Returning in 1865, he was appointed by
Gen. Griffin, then commanding the de-
partment of Texas, as judge of the
Third judicial district, embracing the
counties of Galveston, Harris, BraZos,
Burleson, Milan and Washington. In
1871 ne removed to Galveston and be-
came city attorney. In 1872 he was ap-
pointed judge of the judicial district en-
bracing Galveston and BraZoria counties.
He resigned this position in 1873 and was
elected to represent Galveston, Brazoria
and Matagorda counties in the state legis-
lature. In 1874 President Grant ap-
pointed him postmaster OF Galveston, an
Office he held until the close of the Hayes
administration when he resigned and
resumed the practice of his profession.
In 1884, upon the death of Judge Morrill,,
United States district judge of the East
ern district of Texas, President Arthur
appointed Judge Sabin as his successor.
Martin Dewey, ex-ehief of the fire de-
partment and a well-known citizen, died
at his residence in this city at 10 O'Clock
this morning. He had been IN feeble
health for many months. Mr.. Dewey
was a native of New Orleans and served
gallantly throughout the civil war.

AFTER RAILROADS.

Nebraska Threatens to Follow the Example
of Iowa on Account of Rates.
Nebraska threatens TO follow the example Of
iowa in regard to the railways, judging from the
tone of two savage letters by Governor
Thayer nominaly addressed to the railway
companies, but really addressed 20 the public
ear through the newspapers. In Ihe first
letter some weeks ago the governor demanded
that the railways reduce their rates on corn in
order TO help out the farmers. This done,
although railway men and others believed that
It would tend to reduce rather than increase the
Price OF corn. Under the reduced freight rate
the farmers hurried still more Of their product
forward, loading the already overloaded market;
and now the governor declares that the farmers
have had no benefit from the ten per cent.
duction, and that ''the gamblers, spectators
and dealers in iutUres' have absorbed st.
Keverth eless he comes out with q still fercer
demand the railways for another 10 per cent.
reduction and declares that the farming classes
are aroused now as they have never been be-
fore. - and warns the railroads of the ''disas-
trous consequences to them if his demands are
not complied with. How another reduction in
freight rates is either TO increase the demand
for corn or prevent the gamblers, spectators,
etc, from again absorbing the margin the gov
ernor docs not make clear.
