FOR CONTEMPT OF COURT.
{. p. Huntington May Find Himself in
Trouble When He Returns.
Special 10 the Gazette

Special TO the Gazette.
New YORK. May when Col. c. P.
Huntington, the railway magnate, returns
to the city. he may be arrested and pun
iShed for contempt of court in diSobeying
the subpoena issued by the United States
district court in the latter part of March.
This is the second time Huntington has
shown his contempt for the judiciary of the
state and the United States in the past
twelve months.
The first was when the lawyers for
Michael Gernheim Il Co., bankers, who are
fighting him to prevent his grabbing up the
property of the Houston and Texas Central
and converting it to his own use in the
Southern Pacific railway company. SUBJ
punaed him 10 give testimony in the su-
preme court, but instead of appearing he
went West and remained there until the
trial ended, as he had already been exam
med privately before the trial An effort
was made to punish him for contempt.
In the present case, the facts are some
what different as far as can be ascertained.
About the latter part of March, Huntington
and number of lawyers who are said to be
il collision for the purpose of appropriate
ing the Houston and Texas Central to their
own use and to the exclusion of its rightful
owners, were summoned to give their testi-
mony before United States Commissioner
Shields, who was appointed to take the
testimony The sittingS Of the commission
covered several weeks and a great volume
of testimony was obtained for use in the
suit brought by S. W. Carey, on behalf.
of the minority stockholders, TO show that
the decree foreclosing the mortgages and
ordering the sale of property was collu-
siyely entered. 1t was desired to show
this by the very lawyers who represented
both Huntington and the stockholders.
Among those whom the order included it
has been learned that there was lively
time when Huhtingtou's absence in direct,
violation of the order of the court became
known and there was very clear intima-
ti1n that even if he did own millions of rail
way property, he would find himself in
&ry serious predicament when he again ap-

Dog JEALOUSY.

Druggist Koehler lives in Mount Auburn.
He owns huge bloodhound. which for a
long time had been the pet of the children
on the block. Not long ago he presented
his neighbor, Stacey Hill, Jr., with a sol
emn looking little pug. The children i'm
mediately transferred their affections from
the big bloodhound to the little pug. The
bloodhound moped for while, and once or
twice assaulted his rival, the pug. The
other day the pug disappeared. 1t was
sought far and wide. One of Mr.. Hills
servants remembered that she had seen
the bloodhound carrying the pug pup In
his mouth through the side yard of the Hill
residence Another search was made.
The pug was found in the cistern. 1t
was dead. The bloodhound had captured
the pug, carried it into the rear yard and
dropped it into the cistern well, the cover
of which was half removed. The blood
hound thus disposed of his rival. This is a
curious story and an interesting one. Its
truth is youched for by Druggist Koehler,
Mr.. Hill and the servsnts-veracious per-
sons all Of them.-Cipcinuan Commercial

appropriate ceremonies at the First Baptist

THE UNITED sPIRITUALIsTs.
A Programme of More Than Usual Inter
est Provided.

Each succeeding Sunday afternoon wit
nesses much larger attendance upon the
services held in Greenwall'S opera house by
the United Spiritualists. The reason prob
ably lies in the fact that an unusually at
tractive musical programme is presented,
while the other features are of such ma
ture as to enchain the attention of the
audiences. 1t is self-evident fact that
this organization will require a place of
worship of more than ordinary size to &C
commodate the audiences. The inspira-
tional hymn given in full in the programme
was composed by Mrs. II. T. W lson in five
minutes and is very pretty poem. The
