A Lucrative Position for Some One.

Ever since George H. Daniels resigned
the position of chairman of the passenger
committee of the Central Traffic associa.
ton, Chairman Blanchard, of the general
association, has actel as chairman, while
the Office has been in charge of Secretary
b. E. Knapp, gentleman well qualified for
tue duties OF the association 1t is gener-
ally admitted that the affairs of the associ-
atlon since the retirement of Mr.. Daniels
have been conducted just as efficiently as
before, while the salaries OF chairman and
large fore, of clerks, etc, were saved to
the roads. But, nevertheless, efforts have
been made ever since TO secure the election
OF permanent chairman of the passenger
committee, simply because a number of am
bilious Passenger officials are anxious to
secure lucrative anu easy position. It is
hardly probable that a sufficient number of
roads can he induced to vote in favor of ap-
pointing permanent chairman of the com
mlttee when nothing can be gain ed thereby
except TO increase materially the expenses
of the association.

Mr.. j. H. Bennett, of the Rio Graude

yesterday that his road would make no
cheap rate and run no excursion trains
into Salt Lake on election day. He said
there would be an excursion from Bing-
nam and probably one from Ogden on the
eth to see the Liberal parade, but as far as
ne knew there would be none from the
Colorado state line.
The Rio Grande Western is on time as
usual.
The Utah & Northern is still in the con-
somme between Franklin and McCammon.

Improvements at the Power House,

Such improvements are to be pushed
about the engine house and car sheds Of
Inc electric car line as warrant the belief
that Salt Lake is to be favored with the
most complete street car system in the
west
Work is being pushed for another en-
glne to be placed in the south side of the
engine house similar to the one now in
operation, which will give the whole mo
tive power available 400 nominal horse
power, enough to operate fifty miles OF
tramway.
Close beside the present car shed, to the
north, is just finished another building, fol
Inc same purpose, 125x50 feet, wholly fire
proof, it being built of heavy sheet iron.
In 1t at present stand six handsome new
cars, and there is room for at least thirty.
The old car shed will be employed for re-
pairing purposes.

THE CHECK WAS FORGED.
Mr.. Russell Says He Cashed 1t lnno-
Gently for Friend.

A well-dressed man of low stature
with q flowing blonde mustache, en-
tered the< Second National Bank
at noon to-day and presented
a check for $3.50 drawn by Mrs.
Matilda Schlick, of the Philip
Becker Furniture Company payable to
the order of James Perkins,
New York horse dealer, and through
the subsequent endorsement of Mrs
Schlick made payable to bearer.
Receiving Teller Rice's suspicious were
aroused at the story told by the man who
preseL led the check, and, sending for an
officer, he placed the man under arrest.
charging him with forgery.
At Police Headquarters the man gave
his name as John RUSSELL of No. 1888
West Tnirty-ninth street, New York.
He appeared very indignant at his ar
rest, and said he cashed the check for the
man Perkins in New York last night
who told him he would have no trouble
in presenting the check at the bank for
payment.
He was held till further investigation
can be made.
Receiving Teller Rice says that the
number of the check had been duplicated
and that the blank cheek had been
abstracted from book in use by Mrs.
Schllck ayear and half ago.
Her manager pronounces the check as
clean forgery. No one seems to be able
to ascertain how the blank che was oh
tanned by the forger.

THE KNIFFIN TRAGEDY.

why No Arrests Were Made--The In
quest Begun.
TRENTON, Jan. s, 189O.-It appears now
that the prosecution, knowing it had
not the shadow of case
against DR.. Kniffin and Miss Pur-
sell has peen afraid to cause their arrest,
as they would be released on ha5eas cor
pus proceedings
The system Of guarding" them is kept
up, however, in the hope of torturing
them into a confession if they have any
thing to confess.
The inquest began today, and DR.. A. r.
Patterson, who keeps the drug store be-
low the Kniffin's rooms, testified.
His evidence in the main confirmed
Miss Pursell's story. There was little
new in it except the following points
brought out in cross-examination:-
Q.-What do you know of the relations
between DR.. Kniff1n and his wife? A.
Always very good, so far as / know.
Q.-Did you ever hear any quarrelings
Q.-Who bys Al heard Miss Purcell
and Mrs. Kniffin talking excitedly once.
and Miss Purcell told me it was because
she wouldn't eat.
Q.-How often had you heard quarrel
ing in the house? Avery seldom; there
was moro laughing and cutting up than
anything else.
c. Did DR. Kniffln ever go out with
Miss PurseIl? A. Yes. He used to go
out with her occasionally when she went
to work. l have seen them as often as
two or three times week.
Q.-When Kniffin said good bye to his
wife the morning he left did he kiss her?
A.-No.
Odd you ever see him kiss her? A.
No, he did not seem to me to be very
affectionate man.
/ Odd you ever sell Dr. Knifiin chloro-
form? A.-No.
Q.-Do you know if he used it? Al
don't think he does.
Odd you ever sell him any ether?
Ayes; | sold him half pound less
than ten days ago.

NEGRO ANARCHIST.
The Dynamite Speech Of a
Chocolate Co1ored SaT
age in Zion Churc-s.

A real live negro anarchist was the
attraction at the meeting of the Afro
American League held at the African
Methodist Church OH Monmouth street
last evening, but it must be said to the
credit of our African fellow citizens that
his incendiary rantings, though they
caused considerable laughing, were de-
nounced by the majority of those present.
The colored anarchists name is Price
Williams He is a medium sized, un-
gaiply looking individual of pale choco-
late, color red moustache and freckled
face
The objects of the league were set forth
by I. Thomas Fortune, the colored jour
nalist of New York. Mr.. Fortune is q
man of sense and education and his talk
was well received.
He said that the object of the league
was to found a bank, give the young col
ored men q technical education, and to
found cooperative labor.
$50 LEARNING FOR A $40 BOY.
The question of the future OF the race,
he said was not to be solved by politics.
He said that the colored men must stop
putting a $50 education into $40 boy
and educate the boys hands. The great
fault OF the colored people was that they
begin on top and work down, instead of
up.
A. B. Cosey and the Rev. Mr. Marley
were chosen delegates to represent the
Hudson county branch at the grand con-
vention Of the League to be held in Chi
cago.
A BLooDTHTRsTY RANTER.
Then Williams obtained the floor. He
began by declaring that the meeting had
gone far from the purpose for which it
was called. He understood the object to
be to protest against the outrages to the
colored man in the South.
Then he pitched into Mr.. Fortunes re-
marks, and said that the only trouble
with the colored man was he was too
submissive. The only colored
man in the country who is
respected, he said, is the negro down in
Georgia, who hides in the brush with his
Winchester and every time a white man
shows his head he bangs away at it.
He declared it was niger this and mig
ger that now, but as soon as the cclored
man learned 10 use the knife and the
torch it would be Mr.. Negro.
He ranted along in this manner tor a
half hour or more

THE GIRLS CLUB HOUSE.

The Officers Elected at the Meeting on
Grand Street Last Evening.
Pretty girls were plentiful at the Work
ing Girls Club last night, and bright
smiles and mirthful laughter mingling
at times with seriousness, denoted that
the gathering was not one of business
alone, but happy combination of both
The occasion for this was the first an
nual election of officers of the club, and
all the girls had their favorites.
The meeting was promptly called to
order and the election resulted in the
choice of the following
President, Miss II. Iselin; vice-presi-
dent. Miss Agnes Leonard; treasurer,
Mrs Joes; assistant treasurer, Miss Mag
gle McSorley, and secretary, Miss Kitty
Mccarthy.
AS each charming officer was an
nounced elected she was greeted with ap-
plause as hearty as any given political
stump speaker.
After the election the young women
were arranged into classes as follows:-
Dressmaking, millinery, cooking, musi C.
dancing and embroidery.
When | got an opportunity / saw Miss
Iselen, who told me that although the
club had been organized month nothing
had really been done untillast night except
to furnish the club room, and listen to a
couple of lectures from Mrs. De Hart
who will continue to lecture once a week
for some time
Last night the girls selected the other
teachers that will have charge of the diff
ferent classes and arranged a regular
plan of instruction. Some of these teach
ers give their labor free and others are
paid.
Many of the girls as individuals could
not afford to pay for tuition from so many
teachers, butby paying 60 the club 20 cents
month as dues they are enabled to be
instructed in classes, and also pass enjoy
able evenings. The club numbers more
than one hundred.
