escaped death In the first place BY falling into
this and then he swan to the side and scram-
bled UP on a ledge Of rock. During the nine
weeks the water has gone down about thirty
five feet in tho shaft and the dog has proba-
bly, followed It down. picking his way over tho
lodges.
The dogs name is Sultan. He is . flne black

EXPOSURE OF LAKE SHORE AGENTS.
Wrath HeapeA Upon tho Western Roads

Wrath HeapeA Upon the Western Roads
that Gave tho Aen Away.
A feeble effort is being made to create SEN
sation out Of the discharge OF several ticket
agents BY President Newell OF the Lake
Shore. They received commissions from
certain Western lines for routing bus
mess over those roads. and tho latter
gave the men away to Mr.. Newell. The Lake
Shore was foremost in boycotting tho Alton.
and this opportunity was taken to show Mr..
Newell that his company was not altogether
what It protested to, be. on the. commission
question. Mr.. Newell said that Ne would dis
charge the first man that he caught receiving
commissions.
The evidence WAS forthcoming in the shape
OF check OF q Western road payable to q
Lake Shore agent and endorsed by the latter
or rather 1t is said to have been photograph Of
the check. Checks were produced cOnvicting
several agents. and they al had to go. Mr.
Newell showed them the photographs Of the
checks. which revealed also the roads that
gave the men away.
1t is rule among commission paying rail-
roads to preserve confidential relations with
the agents to whom they offer inducements.
This Is the only protection the men have. and
the action Of the general passenger agents OF
the Western linss who exposed the Lake
army Of agents throughout the country. One
ton. There are threats OF boycotting that road.
The exposure showed clearly that the boycott
tiers are as deep in commissions as the boy
