When MIR. Robb left there Mr.. Stone

IN these days of railroad competi.
t'on persons travelling over two or
more lines should be very careful TO
see 'hat their tickets are made out as
ordered. While on his way back
home Bert Jones purchased tickets
at Quincy, Illinois, and ordered them
made up via Kansas City to Denver,
ana from Denver to Ogden over the
u. q II. U. 1t was SO near time for
starting that he could not examine
the tickets, but in conversation with
the conductor, S. P. Landcraft, while
on the Burlington train, ascertained
that they were made out via the u.
+. The accommodating conductor
at once telegraphed the division su-
perlntendent, who telegraphed E. G.
Fox, ticket agent at Kansas CITY.
Being met at the depot by L. J.
Brlcker, passenger agent, Bert was
taken to the ticket office, where the
desired tickets were issued. Such
mistake on the part of the Quincy
agent can only be accounted for as in
tentional. Good per centage is given
by most roads to other agents fol
sending passengers over their lines

The Republican Senators have, it is
understood, agreed upon a programme
of action, under which they hope to
bring the cloture rule and the Elections
bill to a vote tomorrow. Whether the
programme is a success or not, they pro-
pose to stand or fall by it. The plan ar
ranged is this:
If there is a quorum of Republican
Senators present on Saturday, Mr.. AL
drich will move that a vote be taken on
the pending cloture rule. 1t is ex-
pected that at this juncture some Demo

floor for the purpose of continuing the
debate. Mr.. Aldrich will then raise the
point of order that further debate
would be in the nature of dilatory pro-

decided by the presiding officer to be not

FLUSHED WITH VICTORY.

Gladstone Would Have Retired If De-
fsated at Hartlepool.
LONDON, Jan. est has Just become
known that on the result of the Hartle.
pool election depended whether Mr..
Gladstone would continue as leader OF
the Liberal party. This fact was known
to Mr.. Morley, Mr.. Harcourt and a few
others, but was carefully kept secret, for
fear of encouragement, from the rank
and file of the party.
This was one reason why the Liberal
made the Hartlepool contest a national
affair, and the leaders devoted them
selves to the canvass with as much en-.
ergy as If general election was at
stake, in striking contrast to the Union
lists, who left their candidate to work
out his own salvation, so that they
might be able to claim, in the event of
defeat, that they had never expected
victory. Mr.. Gladstone had intended to
remain for some days at Hawarden, and
will now appear in the House of Com
mons.
The opening of Parliament was strik-
ingly evident of the change which a few
hours had made in the fortunes of the
Liberal party. The Liberals came in
flushed with success, and without the
cloud that for weeks had rested on the
faces of the most courageous of them
while the Tories and Dissentient Liber.
ais were deeply and manifestly downcast
Mr.. Parnell was entirely ignored by
his former Liberal friends as he entered

ings. The Tories also failed to notice

moved by the change from the time
when men, irrespective of party, sought
his recognition.

HIS MILLIONS GONE.
"Old Hutch" ChioaEo's Bold Spectator,
Forced to Retire.

CHICAGO, JaA 23.-Hutchinson, the
veteran Board of Trade man, and the
boldest speculator the Chicago Board of
Trade has ever known, has withdrawn
from speculation.
1t is estimated that "Old Hutch" has
lost about $19,0OO,000 within 20 years.
In 1870 he was reported to have a fortune
of $4,000, 000 Ten years ago his wealth
had dwindled to $10.O0O,000, and now
there is but 81, 100000. 1t was to save
this from following the rest of his money
that Mr.. Richardson's family insisted
upon his retirement.
Some time ago Charles Hutchinson,
his son, and also president of the Board
of Trade, had talk with his father, and
told him that unless he would close up
his deals quietly and give up all specula-
tive business, the matter would be taken
into the courts and couservator applied
for. Mr.. Hutchinson, ST., was very an
CRY for a time, but finally consented to
the terms and at once evened up his
trades and closed his books. Mr.. Hutch
inson still frequents the trading hall
but places no deals.

MAY MEAN A THIRD PARTY.
WOrkingmen and Farmers Form a Close
Federation at the Capital.

Workingnen and Farmers Form Close
Federation at the Capital.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-The biggest
federation of labor organizations ever
known in this country was practically
agreed upon here during the day when
committees representing the National
Farmers Alliance, the Colored Farmers
Alliance, the Knights of Labor and the
Citizens Alliance met and agreed to
form a close confederation for both Of
tense and defense. Word has been re-
ceived from the Grange, the Farmers
Mutual Benefit Association and the
Northwestern Alliance that they are in
full sympathy with the movement and
can be counted in.
While the delegation here disclaim
any idea of third party movement, the
very general idea is that the action to-
day will be the inception of an indie
pendent political movement. The de-
mands which will be formulated will
without doubt contain the principles il
not the words of the Sub-Treasury plan,
and the government control and ulti'
mately ownership of the means of trans
portation. The demands will be laid
before the old parties, and if they are not
granted the third party will follow.
This is the opinion of many who are on

STRIKERS IN CONTROL.
The Chicago a. Erie Road Forced to Shut
Down.

Down.
CHICAGO, Jan. 2S.-''We are COM
pletely tied up" says General Manager
Tucker, of the Chicago Sc Erie road. "It
may last one day and it may last weeks.
We will not accede to the demands Of
the strikers"
"Will you run passenger trains to-
day?"
''No; we will wait and see when the
strikers get tired. We are fixed for the
strike. There is not pound of perish
able freight on the road, and we are re-
fusing any freight of whatever descrip-
ton. This is the dull season of the
year, and we might as we'll lay off a
month as not. There are no damage
suits coming. We have prepared for
that. We are going to make a test
case of this. Our car shops are shut
down and our trains are not running
We will run them whenever the strikere
will let US. They have cut the wires,
and what they will do next remains to
be seen. Passengers on the tied-up
trains will be brought in over other
lines"
The conductors and despatchers in
conference decided to make an offer OF
settlement. which was to the effect that
Dispatcher Scott, who was discharged,
shall be reinstated and given a chance to
resign, and that all men who We're in
terested in the strike shall return to
work and the company take no action
against them. William McGrew, presi-
dent of the First National Bank, and
Mayor Randolph were selected by the
men to present their offer to the company
and they did so. The company has not
yet given an answer.

THE COMING BATTLE
Plans Completed for the Great
Miners Strike.
$4,000 MEN WILL BE INVOLVED.
It Will be the Greatest Industrial Conflict
Ever Inaugurated in America.

izations Well Supplied with AIoney-A
Fight for an Eight-Hour Day-How the
Money to Garry ON tho Contemplated
Struggle is Raised.
PTTsBURG, Pa, Jan. 23-The miners
of the United States have just completed
plans for the greatest industrial battle
ever fought in America The conflict be-
tween the miners and the mine owners
will take place on the first of May.
The entire national organization of
miners. comprising 10000 men, will be
directly involved in a demand for the
eight-hour day. Ac cording to the figures
which are being given it will be a battle
of millions of capital against labor or
CARNATIONS, also backed by millions Of
money.
Backed by the Federation of Labor.
can Federation of Labor Unions, held
in Detroit, it was decided to back the
miners for eight hours next May. The
utterances of the officers of the United
Mine Workers on the subject leaves no
doubt that the miners will make the
fight.
An immense strike fund is being made
Eeauy LOr the miners, ana When the lat
ter go out they will have at their back
for immediate use nearly $1,000, 900.
This fund will be swelled from time to
time at the rate of $50, 900 week.
Labor's Sinews of War.
w. j., Dillon, Secretary of the Ameri-
can Flint Glass Workers Union, United
States organizer for the American FEEDER
alton of Labor, has just given the fol-
lowing interview on the coming fight:
sin the aggregate we figure on $50, 900
miners in the United States. Almost
20, 900 of these are active members of the
United Mine Workers. The remainder
are members of the organization when
it comes to q struggle. These are tn 9
men who will strike for eight hours
next May.
"The Federation numbers about $780,
900 men and 500, 900 men can be counted
upon. For six weeks before May 1,
strike contributions will be levied on
the members at the rate of ten cents a
week. This will make $500. 900 for the
six weeks. The formal ratification will
take place at next months convention
of the United Mine Workers to be held in
Columbus, Ohio.
"The latter organization has a strike
fund of its own amounting to several
hundred thousand dollars. Besides this
| it will raise a special fund before the
| fight, so that 81, 900, 900 will be ready by
May l, on which to conduct the contem
plated conflict"

EVA HAS NO CLAIM.

The Surro :ate Decides that She is Not
Robe Ray HamiltOn's Widow.
NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-The Hamilton will
contest was quickly disposed of by Sur
rogate Ransom. He decided that the mar.
riage of Eva L. Hamilton to Robert Ray
Hamilton was void and that she is still
the wife of Joshua J. Mann.
The Surrogate's decision was lengthy
and he carefully reviewed the evidence.
In the midst of the delivery of his de-
cision the Surrogate made the assertion
that his finding of fact where there is a
conflict of evidence, settled the case for
all time as the appellate courts would be
powerless to review his decision.
While this action disposes of Eva final
ly, it is probable that Schuyler Hamil
ton, jr., and his wife, the chief legatees
will now contest the annuity left to the
bogus infant in trust, it being now
proved that the child was not Robert
Ray Hamilton's.

A MOTHERS RASH ACT.
Je1sousy Caused Her to Poison Herself
and Three Children.


BRocKToN, Mass, Jan. 23.-Mrs. Hud-
wild Anderson, wife of Louis Anderson,
purchased a drachm of morphine, and
when her husband had left for his work
she mixed the entire quantity, and,
dividing it into four parts, gave one
to each of her children, aged five, four
and two years, and took the fourth one
herself.
She then retired to her chamber, tax
ing the children with her, with the in
tention of never awaking again. Her
brother, by mere accident, returned to
the house, and finding all quiet, pro-
ceeded to investigate, and on entering
his sisters room found her and the
children in a stupor.
He called for assistance and Drs.
Locke, Brown, aad King were sum-
moned. After heroic efforts the mother
and children were brought to conscious
ness, but rapidly sank again and are
now expected to die at any moment.
The cause attributed for the rash act
is that of jealousy. She consulted a
medium, who told her that her husband
was keeping company with other women
and she resolved to commit suicide.
