May Involve tht Northwestern

Suit is about TO be brought by some
Of the common stockholders OF the Mil
waukee, Lake Shore Sc Western railroad
company against those who were direc-
tors OF the road at the time OF its pur-
chase by the Chicago & Northwestern.
The suit may ba modified so as to be
brought against the corporation itself.
The sale Of the road to the Northwest
ern was ratified by the directors OF the
Milwaukee road on Dec. Is. BY the
terms OF the purchase nine shares of
Milwaukee preferred stock were to be
exchanged for ten shares of the North
western common stock and five shares
of Milwaukee common were to be ex-
changed for four shares OF Northwestern
common stock. AS soon as the deal
was brought about, it is alleged by the
stockholders, the directors and trustees
began to resign all along the line, and,
as their places were promptly filled by
the nominee OF the Northwestern, the
stockholders say they were lett without
any proper representation on the board.
Some days ago the Northwestern
directors met and declared dividend
OF 7 per cent on the preferred stock OF
the Milwaukee, most Of which had been
exchanged for Northwestern stock
under the terms of purchase, but passed
the dividend on the Milwaukee common
diverting the funds which might have
been applied to that purpose to the
sinking fund OF the road.

ANOTHER insult was offered the AM
erican flag in Gillian waters last week.
A gig belonging to the Yorktown
lying off the landing ut Valparaiso was
stoned by three Chilians. Commander
Evans Immediately notified the senior
naval officer OF the Chilian navy that il
the police would not protect his men he
would protect them himself with his
guns. The police took the hint and
promised the prompt punishment OF
the offenders.

WHEN an erratic genius like Phil Nc
Kenna exhibits decided SYMPTOMS of re-
form he should certainly be encouraged
In that direction. At recent meeting
of the board of supervisors of Delta
county proposition to donate 500 to
the widow of the late DR.. Tracy, the
taxes on whose estate amounted to 5000,
was opposed by McKenna, and in a
long personal letter in the Mirror he
gives his reasons therefor in such cool,
dispassionate way, and without the use
OF his usual fierv and exaggerated epith-
cts that we are really surprised. In
the letter referred to the most appro-
brious term applied by Mr.. McKenna
to couple of respectable gentlemen
was "a brace of conniving schemers. :"
Truly the world do move and McKenna
has somehow got into the procession.

From the tone OF recent Washington
dispatches it is not at all improbable
that the United States will be obliged
70 enforce it's demands upon Chill with
the foi ce of arms. There is grave APP
prehension that such will be the result,
and the general feeling seems to be
that the administration shond he sus-
tanned regardless OF party considerations
The democratic house seems disposed
to upholSs.aa. president in all just de-
mands, and theSe will be no lack oil
funds to put our navy on war footing.
In this respect The democrats in congress
are to be commended, and we hope to
see any indignities offered the American
flag properly resented-and punished il
need be.

SECRETARY Tracy has received q
cable message from Commander Evans
OF the Yorktown at Valparaiso, saying
that the last of the Chilian political re-
fugees who had been under protection
OF the different legations at Santiago
were safely transferred to the Yorktown.
There were seven OF these refugees,
Ave at the United States legation and
two at the Spanish legation. They
were accompanied from Santiago to
the Yorktown by the Amer can and
Spanish ministers and will remain on
the vessel until the 10th instant when
they will be transferred to the Pacific
Mail steamer scheduled to sail for Pan
anna on that date en- routo for Europe.
The dispatch says nothing in regard to
the conditions OF affairs in Chiii. II is
therefore assumed that there is nothing
to report on that subject. There were
originally fourteen refugees at the diff
ferent legations when the present adj
ministra.ion came into power. Five Of
these were subsequently allowed to
leave in peace. The remaining nine
are now ON the Yorktown.

Deep Draft Vessels.

II. G.. Ke.chum, engineer of the
Chignccto ship railway, has submitted
to the Canadian government scheme
by which he says vessels drawing up
ward of 90 feet OF water can be pushed
through the present st. Lawrence
canals from Port Arthur to Quebec and
through the 500 canal now being ex-
c,vated, without deepning the canals
or enlarging the locks, thus obviating
the expenditure of millions of dollars
upon canal deepening. Mr.. Ketchum
proposes that large vessels be placed
upon steel RATS or pontoons and thus
foated through the canals and over
river shadows, the vessels to b. placed
upon the pontoons by means of hydrau-
lie lifts established at the entrance OF
each canal. He says 100000 would
provide pontoons and lifts for all the
existing canals: that these lifts could
be used as craving docks; that little
time would be lost in placing the ves-
sells upon the floats, and that the plan
has been successful elsewhere. 500

He Retra cted.

The Iron Port rece lily published an
editorial wherein it was intimated that
James A. Randall, member OF the
legislature from Wayne, had Yade his
membership profitable. Mr.. Rand III
got mad and demanded retraction,
and with whitening sarcasm wrote the
editor that ordinarily he did not go
cunning for mice, but the statement
must be retrac ed, and the retraction
must be as ample as the most fastidious
could require" And this is the way
Col. Van Duser retracted:
ave thought the statement true, but
Mr.. Randall ought to know, and he Gin
ferentially, at least) denies it, so there
is but the one thing to be done and we
pull it back, and admit upon his nu-
thority) that he did not make his mem
bership profitable, to himself, his con-
stituents or the state.
We hope our retraction is ample
enough to satisfy that most fastidious
person, because we have lately pur-
chased twenty pounds of leads and
Marder Luse a. Co. will want their
money pretty soon, and il our treasurer
had to draw his check for S11, 900
CHATS the price Of Mr.. Randall's re-
putation as fixed by Detroit jury) we
might have to stand off the type-foun-
der whom we want to pay, in favor of
the hawbuck legislator whom we had
rather not pay. Will this do Mr.. Ran
dGll?"
1t rather looks as though there was
hors, on Mr.. Randall this time.
