MFR. Lowry Will Have to Defend
His Twin City Lines.


ST. LOUIS, Dec. 2S.-As announced
in these dispatches Friday last, legal
war involving millions of dollars is to
be inaugurated by the Adams Electric
Railway company this week. A meet
ing of stockholders of the Adams CON-
pany will be held tomorrow or Tues

holder of the local company tits learned
that the suits will be brought against
the street railway companies using any
of the electric railway systems in
fringing upon the Adams patent.
The first of these suits will be
brought in Boston. An eminent law
yer of this city, it is said, has already
been engaged to prosecute the claims Of
the st. Louis company, and it is conf
IDENTIFY expected that the Boston suit
will sustain the claim. Should this re-
suit be reached, injunction proceedings
will be instituted against all electric
street railway systems in the United

Recalls the Giant.

SUPERIOR, Wis.,, Dec. 2s.-The death
IS reported at Birmingham, N. Y, of
George Hull, who left Superior few
weeks ago with his son-in-law, C. w.
Gates, to spend the winter East. Mr..
Hull was the originator of the Cardiff
giant hoax, and reports as to his death
are conflicting, one attributing it to sui
eide, and another says it occurred the
day following the robbery of Mr.. Gates,
who lost $500 in New York. The
Cardiff giant was dug up on Mr.. Hulps
farm about twenty years ago, and Mr..
HUI made considerable money out of
1t before the hoax was discovered.

Anti-Kidnaners,

New YORK, Dec. 2s.-The new Anti
Kidnapping leagues national commit
tee will tomorrow issue an address to
the public, stating that many sane per-
sons have been proved in court lately to
be illegally Imprisoned in lunatic
asylums, and that such Imprisonment
is easily inflicted without trial, and hard
to escape from. They say that rich peo-
pie, whose property is coveted, and
persons whose spoHses wish to get rid
OF them, are specially liable to kidnap-
ing. The committee ask all who know
of such cases, and all who feel them
selves in danger of such incarceration,
to write to their secretary, Miss G. G.
LathrOp.

sioners of Fort Bend county quarantined

who wished to get off were met by

SHE PREFERRED RICHARDS.
A Chicago Woman Elopes From
Baltimore.

BALTIMORE, Dec. 2s.-Whliam H.
Stewart. who halls from Chicago, and
said to be commercial traveller, accom-
panied by his wife. about thirty-five
years of age, and their son, boy of
about eight, arrived in this city early
last week. Two days later there came
to the hotel at which the Stewart family
stopped another guest, who signed his
name upon the register as William K.
Richards, Philadelphia. 1t soon be-
came evident to the husband that his
wife was exhibiting a decided pref
erence for the newcomer. So he
plainly told her that if she cared
more for Richards than for the man to
whom she owed allegiance under the
marriage laws, she had better make her
selection at once, but could never come
back to him. Mrs. Stewart Immediately
declared Richards was the man into
whose keeping she would confide her
future, and the pair have apparently
shaken the snow of Baltimore from
their feet. The boy remains with Mr..
Stewart

CoNFEDERATEs COME IN.
Some Southern Soldiers Are to
Have Pensions.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.-A pension
problem has arisen under the new pen
sion law Of last June. The act grants
pensions to soldiers who served ninety
days and are now disabled from earning
a support, provided they were honora-
bly, discharged. The officers of the pen
sion office were of the opinion that the
act of June 81, 1890, aid not include
soldiers who had been in the Confed-
crate service. The question was re-
ferred to Assistant Secretary Bussey,
who decides that claimants who served
in the Confederate army prior to en-
listment i'll the United States service
are entitled, under the act of June 81,
1880, and are placed on the same footing
as all other Union soldiers. Some of
the officials of the pension bureau are
bothered to know what to do with those
that were wounded while in the Con-
federate service. The only restriction
that the act of June 81, 1890, makes is
that the disabilities must not be the re-
suit of the soldiers own vicious habits.
