NO TRAFFIC. ALLIANCE.
The Pennsylvania and Northern
Pacific Stand Alone.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Oct. 23.-President
George B. Roberts. of the Pennsylvania
railroad, was interviewed by proxy to-
day on several important subjects. Cen
cral Superintendent Pitcairn, of this
city, acting as his spokesman. One of
these was report, from indianapolis.
to the effect that the object of President
Roberts trip West was to make traffic
alliance with the Northern Pacific rail-
road, whereby the Northwest would be
opened up to the Pennsylvania cOmpa-
ny. the result Of which would be con-
solidation Of the interests of the two
roads. Mr.. Pitcairn said that there was
not the slightest foundation for the re-
port, and an influential gentleman con-
'1ected with the Pennsylvania cOmpa-
ny cOrrobOrated his statement, saying
mat it would be folly to enter into such
an arrangement, for the reason that any
other road would then combine and
ship their freight on roads which would
give them freight in return.

HERE'S A QUESTION.
Passenger Agents Hubbard and
Pond Differ.

CHICAGO, Oct. 23.-General Passenger
Agent Hubbard, of the 500 line, has
created quite breeze by circulating a
report that the Wisconsin Central is
paying eXorbitant commissions on emf
grant business. He claims to have the
best of evidence that the road in ques-
ton has been paying 81 each fer emf
grants routed over that line, and threat
ems to reduce his rate from New York
to st. Paul by just that amount.
General Passenger Agent Pond, of the
Wisconsin Central, says the statement
is simply absurd. His road can get 10
emigrant business that is not assigned
to it by the advisory board of the North
western blind passenger pool, no matter
what commissions it might pay. The
Wisconsin Central, he says, has not
been paying any but agreed commits
sions, AMI none at all in Eastern ter

SUICIDE ON THE GALLONS.
Apparatus Used at the Hanging of
Colorado Murderer

The hanging apparatus is very
unique. being the invention of Deputy
Warden Dudley, says the Denver Re-
publican, and having been tried in only
one instance, that of the hanging of a
Mexican from Trinidad, at which time
it worked like charm. and has been
pronounced by all to be the simplest and
most thorough mode of execution. The
instrument, as described in brief, is as
follows:
In the upper part of the square
frame. made of four uprights, a bucket
of water is set, the contents of which,
when ready for operation, weigh
twenty-nine pounds. Directly be-
meath the bucket, and connected by a
rubber hose with valve, is another
bucket, and connected to the upper
bucket by lever is forty
pound iron bali, which con-
meets again with an iron rod. which
keeps in place, at height of six feet,
the weight of $50 pounds, which, when
the water is drawn from bucket, is al
lowed to descend, jerking the con-
demned man about three feet in the air.
From this large weight rope runs
through two pulleys over partition
and then down into the execution room,

which time certain important contracts

Ohio Factories Must Look For
Other Fuel.

othcI II uC1.
CLEVELAND, O., Oct. 23.-There is
considerable trouble in several of the
natural gas towns of Ohio over the fuel
question. Notice was served yesterday
on the factories of Lima by the natural
gas company that no gas would be fur
nished after Nov. l.. The companies at
i iffin were notified that when the pres
ent contracts expired they would have
to put i'll meters and pay for gas at the
rate of six cents per thousand. The
potteries at East Liverpool can no
longer depend on gas, and they are re-
Stunning the use of coal. Only private
consumers are being furnished with gas
in Dayton, and, unless the supply is in
creased by the drilling of new wells,
the price will be increased 25 per cent.
The supply at the wells at the points
named is rapidly decreasing. Costly
litigation is likely to ensue at Dayton
and Tiffin over franchises and grants.
