JASPER, Fla, June 2S.-Great excite
ment exists here over the arrest of Post
master Morrison at White Springs ON an
indictment several years old. Morrison
has been in trouble ever since he accepted
the office, and but lately returned from
Washington, where he had made COM
plant against his Democratic neig hbors
for their treatment of him. On his
arrival home the sheriff arrested him and
brought him here.
The Judge Is in Cahoots.
Bail was refused, the aim evidently be-
ing to keep Morrison in jail so that he
cannot act as postmaster. The arrested is
based on an old Indictment charging Nor.
rison with compromising felony because
he accepted $50 not to prosecute man
who once shot at him. The roughs and
desperadoes are in their element, and
swear to lynch Morrison before he shall
act as postmaster. Trouble is looked for
when United officers arrive Leading

CHICAGO, June 2S.-The trains on the
Illinois Central railway began running
again yesterday afternoon and matters
are 'altitudinous" once more. The men
held long meeting after dinner yester-
day during which the last proposition of
the railway was discussed, and concluded
to accept it. Those on the inside say the
decision would have been the other way
had it not been for the fact that the men
were advised that under the circumstances
they would not receive the moral or finan-
cial support of the great labor organiza-
tons
Conditions of the Compromise.
It all hinged on Mr. Russell, and in his
case the company receded somewhat. He

to go back to their places.

of 100000. On the first day they lost

mcnt regarding the railroad projcc-

as the most important step that has
been suggested in years. The dis
lance is only 80 miles, and if the A.

bilities arc that such a line will never
stop at Hancock. The county south
of that point wants q railroad as
badly as any county in the state, and
its extension on south will give the
main line one of the best feeders IN
the state. The road from Hancock
to jefferson City will be an important
feeder to the main system, because
it will then be a competitor of tho
Mo. Pacific for the Usage river and
