The Pennsylvania railroad is building a

their necks by crossing the crowded thor

The report of the Western Passenger as

such tickets after March next. IL also de-
clares against all the stop-over checks on

Dissatisfied patrons of railroad run

lives were lost and many injured, a case of
eggs was carried down from the bridge in
the falling car to the boggy ground be-

single egg was broken. In the case there
were no less than thirty-six dozen eggs,
packed in the usual manner.
Several railroads in the Central Traffic

positive instructions to all agents TO carry
no opera or theatrical troupes unless the
cash is forthcoming before the actors board

Pat further says that in all his scquaint-

fellows who had made a little money by
peddling buttons or the like, and then set
up to be terrible fellows" 'As soon as

Then their ambition is satisfied; they never

wrong; that nearly all faro games are
straight" that there is great deal less
gambling than formerly, and less in New
York than any other large city, for, says
Mr.. Sheedy, "the police department Of that

FOREIGN OPlNIONs OF SHERMAN

NEW YORK, Feb 20-The World pub
fishes cablegrams giving opinions 10y noted
European generals as to Gen. sherman 8
military ability. Gen. Lord WOl~eley said
that it was a difiiult matter for an out
slider TO make comparisons, but, speaking
purely from a military point OF view, be
undoubtedly would place Sherman at the
head of all the northern commanders as a
strategist
The correspondent asked Lord Wolse-
ley for his opinion as to who was the great
est general in the war on either side. The
general showed reluctance to answer.
Finally he said that if his opinion was
taken merely as from military man,
without regard to natural prejudices on
either side i'm connection with the war, he
had no objection to state that Gen. Lee
was. in his opinion, the greatest general of
his time. English military men,
as also the cleverest tacticia9s among
European generals, looked upon Lee as
head and shoulders above any other man
commanding in the American war This
decision was given by military men who
judged solely from his tactics which dis
played a power TO overcome difficulties and
skillin taking advantage of every opportun-
ity. 81 can, thowever, without prejudice, -
concluded Lord Wolseley. place Sherman
next in rank of military power to Lee. In
this opinion, again, am supported by the
ablesi European commanders"
Count Won Moltke said: II have read
something of SheIman's life, but never
found leisure TO study his military career
in detail. He was in all respects an eX-
cellent commander whose military sue
cesses are sufficient evidence Of his genius.
! am very glad to be able to express my
sympathy with the American nation at his
DEATH"
Gen. DeGallifet, the hero of the Franco
Mexican war, the leader of the famous
cavalry charge at Sedan and one of the
four chiefs of the French army when on a
war footing, said: "Gen. Sherman was
great warrior and the cleverest tactician
revealed during the American war. He
was the one who applied for the first time
the principles of modern war He saw the
part TO be played by railroads in the rapid
concentration of troops. He was quick in
decision and in aggressive action. He de-
serves the sincerest admiration"
Count Won Waldersee, late German
chief of staff, said: 81 painfully feel the
death of the great commander, he of clear
insight and iron will His operations in
Georgia will ever remain standard" "
The eX-Emperor Dom Pedro, OF Brazil,
said: II most highly estimate Gen. Sher-
mans military genius. j consider him as
the hero to whom is due the great union of
the United States, by the victory obtained
in consequence of his wonderful military
march. i had the satisfaction of making
his valuable acquaintance during my voy-
age TO your country and knowing him rs Il
perfect man and an obliging friend"
