Spocia, Dispatch to Tie Iaieligeneer.
CLAXEsBuRG, August Ca private
detective connected with New York
society for the prevention Of crime was
here yesterday securing evidence against
one G. Conroy, New York dealer in
books, photographs and sporting arti.
c!es, who, it is claimed, has been yio-
lating the postal laws. -l.s e.5si.
Conroy is an extensive advertiser,
(even going 80 far as to use some Of the
large New York city dailies) and offers
books and other articles, which us the
wording OF his advertisement implies,
are OF an obscene nature. Upon re-:
ceiving an answer his practice has been
to send catalogue describing his goods
in such way, and asking such enor-
nous prices for the apparent risk be
takes, as to strengthen the belief that
the articles are really cohtraband. Upon
receiving remittance, however, if he
ever answers at all, it is simply to send
an old novel with the cover torn Oft and
the colored photographs of one or two
actresses prsted between the pages. 1t
is said he has been working this game
successfully for some years, most Of his
victims declining TO appear against him
for fear OF notoriety. The evidence
against him now, though, the officer
stated was complete. 1i4l

The Pittsburgh s Wsstern Road Passe,

PITTEBuRoH,, August 2G.-Importan,
changes in the Pittsburgh 4 Western
road are announced. The exceeding
close alliance between this road aud the
Baltimore & Ohio, amounting to a vir.
,ual consolidation, is arranged. To-day
the following official announcement was
made by the Pittsburgh & Western rail-
road:
"Mr. NJ. A. Mcdonald has resigned
his position as General Manager of the
Pittsburgh & Western Railroad Com.
pany. AS three-fourths Of the business
OF the P. & W. is interchanged with the
B &. O., and as tha. company is now
building short line from Akron to
Chicago Junction, with the intention Of
throwing its through freight and pas
senger business over the P. & W., the
owners Of the property and the voting
trustees, Sho represent the bondhold-
ers, have thought it best to make a
closer alliance with that company than
has heretofore existed. In view OF the
foregoing, Mr.. ]. V. Patton, who has re-
signed his position as Superintendent OF
the B. K o., has been appointed by
President Oliver General Manager OF
the T. & W., and will probably assume
the duties Of the position within few
days"
Mr.. Patton has long been recognized
rs one Of the Baltimore & Ohio's IN ost
trustworthy superintendents, and, while
his transfer and advancement is earned
by his ripe Judgement and experience,
it is additional evidence that an alliance
Of more than ordinary scope has been
consumated.
The statement that such a deal was
being made and denied emphatically
and ;often by the Pittsburgh papers,
are now proven true. The close rela-
lionship which is known to exist be.
tween President Oliver, OF the Pitts
burgh & Wheeling and the officials OF
the Baltimore & Ohio, the formers con.
nection with the negotiation and pur.
chase of about S2,0eO,000 worth Of the

RAILROAD RUMORS.
A Reported Deal Between the
old South Pennsylvania
AND WEST VIRGINIA ROAD
Work to Commence Early In Scptcm.
bcr-hn Opposition Line to tho
II. 81 O.-Tho latter Acquires
tho Pittsburgh IL Western.


CLARKsnURU, WA, August oG.-Fol
several days past rumors ofan importar
deal by the West Virginia and Pennsyl
vania railroad people have been current
here, and while it has been impossible
TO verify them, as the persons inter
ested In the road are very reticent
and refuse to be interviewed, still there
seems no doubt that important develop.
ments in connection with the road may
be expected within tho next 80 or GO
days. Rumor has 1t that the old Soutl,
Pennsylvania parties have become inter.
tsted in the West Virginia & Pennsyl.
vania, and TINT they are back OF the
deal; also that 500 men will be put to
work on the Pittsburgh end early In
September, and five corps OF engineers
aud about LOCO men at this end by
October lst.
The officers and directors OF the road
evade answering all inquiries regarding
the truth or falsity OF the reports and
only say smilingly that there are Il
good many combinations that have as
much money as the Baltimore & Ohio!"
Considerable anxiety is felt over the
matter, and it is generally hoped that
the rumors arc true, as tho feeling is
gradually gaining ground that the more
railroads there are passing through or
centering here, tho greater will be the
prosperity OF the town. Another reason
is that matters between the Baltimore i
Ohio and many prominent persons here
have been greatly strained for years
past, the citizens having taken every
possible opportunity to annoy the rail.
way company with law suits and other
wise, and the railway company retail
ating. Consequently an opposition
trunk line will be warmly welcomed.

one million brick now under contract
will be received today and these wilt
be the last shipments until the boycott
OF the X. Of l.. against the Verplank

are determined and well organized and
