THE FRISCO SUIT,

ST. LOUIS, May 2.-The vital point in
the war opened yesterday in the United
States circuit court between opposing
stockholders of the Frisco road is Que
that has never heretofore been brought to
test decision in court of law 1t is the
establishment of the fact whether it posi-
bic for one railroad company to buy up,
control and operate competing line in
violation of the laws of the state in which
the latter company has its existence The
application for receiver was merely for
mality, necessitated by the bringing of the
main question to the courts, and the ap-
pointment of one is only remote possibil-
ity. The question at issue is whether the
present management of the Frisco by the
Atchison is a violation of the laws of Mis-
souri,. 1t is the most interesting railroad
conflict that has arisen for years, and will
be watched with the deepest interest
throughout the entire country.

BERLIN. May 2-The prospect of Prince
Bismarck's early reappearance in the
reichstag has given an impetus to the gov
ernment's plans for the Cancellation OF the
various parties, SO as TO render them ready
to cOalesce in the governments interest
The Center and Freisinnige parties. and
the Guelphs and Poles, in return, receive
government inducements
Prince Bismarck'S victory N Geeste-
munde is modified by the fact that he
polled 1900 fewer votes than did his Ma
tional Liberal predecessor in the seat. The
Socialist ballot was reinforced by over
1000 Guelphist and Freisinnige voters,
whose hatred of the prince exceeded their
dislike to the Socialists. The prince. in
an interview on the eve of the re-ballot,
declared that if he went to the reichstag
he wonld never attack any policy directly
initiated by the emperor, and that his line
of conduct would be the same as that fol-
lowed by him since he left Berlin. He was
convinced, he said, that the greatest
danger to the fatherland was not from
without, but from within. He would not
refrain from exposing, but he certainly y
would never say anything to give his OPP
lacking the emperor from personal mo-
tives. This sort of assurances promises
lively times in the reichstag.

a proof and pledge of the warm feelings
which those in the German empire enter

RUSSIAN STUDENTS DEFY POLICE.

ST. PETERSBURG, May 2-The funeral
today OF Schelgounow, the we'll known
Russian political economist, WAS made the
occasion of a great demonstration. The
students of both sexes marched through
the thoroughfares in defiance of the police
order prohibiting them from so doing.
The latter had no suspicion that the
students would venture to disobey the
orders issued, and were not out along the
line OF march in sufficient force to stop
them. The police, however, afterwards
arrested large number of the students
who had taken part in the demonstration
and several of them were afterwards dis
missed from their schools. and have been
expelled from this city. Reports have
been received here that riotous and revolu-
tionary meetings have been held at War
saw, the capital of Russian Poland.

NEW YORK, May 2-Great sections OF

by fires. and unless rain comes soon the
pine and cedar forests will be ruined. The
cranberry beds have been ruined. The
fire has been the most disastrous in many

heartened after two or three DAYS fighting
the flames, are now so discouraged that
they are making no effort TO check the
spread of the fire. In many Of the villages
in the afflicted district it is difficult to
breathe, so thick is the smoke. There are
unconfrmed rumors that the Hebrew
colony in Cumberland county has been
destroyed Many of the villages have
suffered severely from the fire.
