He Threw Local Terror Through q Hflu
Window In Tennessee.
The resignation Of Senator Reagan,
Of Texas, recalls a story OF how he
CHANGED to remove to the State that
as now his home. and which has so
sisnally hon0red him. He was living
n SEWER County, Tennessee, in 1883,
ani was sent by his father to grist
mill to have a sack OF wheat convert
Ell into -four He was big, raw
bonad, trapping country boy.
Acco4ing t. custom, he hitched
his horse at the mill. took the sack OF
grain from the shoulders of the ami
NAL. placed it on his own shoulders
snd toted il up three flights OF stairs.
and took his place in the line, as peo-
pie are wont 10 do still at country
postoffices. waiting for his turn to
have his wheat ground. Half an
hour or so after Reagan arrived at
the mill well-known local character
came, bringing sack Of wheat to be
ground also. This last character was
local terror, fond Of brawls and
| fighting. and In the habit Of having
his own way.
He had 10 take his place in line
with the rest. but when it got to be
Reagan's turn to have his grain
ground "thc terror said;
See here, Reagan, am in a hurry.
You let me get in your place and you
come lack here where | am
I Reagan demurred. stating that he
was in hurry, too: that BE was en-
titled to his place, and meant TO
keep it. This augcrcd the brawlcr.
He cursed young Reagan, and slid
he would fling him out through the
window, and, suiting the action to
I the word, made rush for the future
statesman. Reagan, like all the rest
Of the people in the neighborhood,
was more OF less telrorized by the
desperate, and, in fear Of his life,
rushed for him, met the desperate
half way, butted him IN the stomach
with his head, and literally lifted him
off his feet and threw him through
the window.
When the desperate disappeared
through the window the consequence
Of his act flashed upon young Reagan's
mind lie instantly supposed that
he had killed a man, that he would
be hanged for it, and. scared almost
to death, he rushed down stairs, un'

Don't Go--General Rail
News.

ST. Louis, Mo-, Jan. 16.-A special
from Omaha. Neb., says: The expos
ure OF the manipulation of grain rates
between Omaha and Baltimore started
the rumor that the through tariff had
been reduced three cents per 100 pounds
and the agents OF the freight lines have
had the ungrateful task of diSSipating
the hopes OF local shippers and trying
TO explain how they were placed at
disadvantage by the Ohio x Mississippi.
u know that the discrimination is
made on shipments by the way OF
BeardStOwn. H." said one of the
freight men, but a man in our bust
ness can't always give all that he
knows. The Burlington system is I'M
dOubtedly acting on the square, and the
manipulation is due TO its eastern con-
nectiOn. Neither the Ohio IL MisSiS-
sippi nor the Baltimore Il Ohio are cut
ting the rate openly, but favorite Bal
umore firm Is getting rebate Just the
same. Its buyers are therefore enabled
10 bid more for corn by two cents per
buShel than any other Omaha grain man
brought to the attention OF Commas
SiOner Blanchard some time ago, but
the difficulty is to get evidence that will
convict the offending read. Mr.. Blan-
ehard instructed his inspectors to be on
the alert. out the weighing and the bill
ing are all right, and the manipulation
Is very smooth bit Of work."
Among the projectors of the scheme
are men who are known to be interested
in the Chicago. st. Paul IL Kansas City
railroad, and 1t IS understood that the
new ROAD, when completed, will become
part OF the Stlckney system.

WILL GOULD GET OUT?
Verbal Notice of Withdrawal is of
No Effect.

No Effect.
CHICAGO, Jan. 16.-Chairman Walker,
of the Western Traffic association. re-
turned this afternoon from New York.
Speaking of the meeting of the presi-
dents. he said he anticipated no trouble
on account of the attitude of Jay Gould,
although it was impossible to tell what
the outcome would be. A verbal notice
of withdrawal from the association has
no force or effect. unless backed up by
/ formal notice signed by the board of
directors OF The road desiring to with
draw, and, even after such notice is
given. ninety days must elapSe before
that road is actually free from the
agreement.
Consequently. the Missouri Pacific
cannot get out of the association before
next April, when another meeting of
the advisory board will be held. Before
that time Chairman Walker believes
that whatever differences or misunder-
standings may now exist will be AMIGA
bly, adjusted, and that the Missouri
Pacific will continue to be a member.
The eases against the Burlington, the
AtchiSOn and Southern Pacific were not
dropped. but action apon them was
postponed until the next meeting to
give the defendant companies the nee
essary time in which to prepare their
defenses. Mir. Gould presumably I'M
derstands this, and is satisfied.
The report that the presidents failed
to elect commissioners for the ensuing
year is untrue. Mr.. Walker says that
before the meeting adjourned all the
present commissioners were reelected
on one ballof. There was nothing said
about REIMBURSEMENT of salaries on the
basis provided by the agreement, as
ChairmanWalker's 5000 contract does
moi eXpiro until April |.

so" AT ST. LOUIS.
1t Will Enter Over Its Own Track
and Bridges

ST. LOUIS, Mo, Jan. 16.-Work has
been begun on the Madison & st. Clair
Belt Line, a road which is to give the
Burlington connection with East St.
Louis. and at the same time enable it to
enter St. Louis over its own roads and
bridges. At present the 20" trains
from the East come in over the Eads
bridge. and those from the West over
the Wabash tracks from St.Peter's, Mo.
The belt line named has a charter, with
all plans properly approved, for a
bridge over the Mississippi NJ Alton.
With this bridge the belt line is to con-
meet East St. Louis. The 20" system
from the East will cross over the Alton
bridge, and by means Of the new road,
enter st. Louis from the north.
From St.Peter's, Mo, a new road is to
be built to connect with the Alton line
crossing the Missouri river on a bridge
to be erected at Bellfontaine Bluff.
Work on both these bridges is to be be-
gun early in the spring. All prelimi-
nary work has been done under the
guiSe OF the Belt line on the east side
of the Mississippi and the st. Louis,
heokuk IL Northwestern on the west
side. Nevertheless, it is certain that
the % is really at the bottom of it all

WARD WILL WALK

MALCOLM'S BOY PUNISHED.
The Fields Were Large, the Starting
Poor, and the Pulling
Very Palpabie.
BOY PUNISHED.

The fields at the Bay District track yes
terday were the largest. the starting the
worst. and the ''stiif'' running the most
palpable of any day of the meeting.
Two boys-Burlinghame. who rode NAL
colin in the second event. and Ward, who
was on St Croix in the third-made the
great mistake Of being found out when
stopping their mounts. H. ID. Brown, the
owner of Malcolm, stated that his instruc-
lions were TO ride the horse out, and as
Malcolm, who finished second, was I'M
touched by whip or spur. the irate owner
inflicted some severe personal chastise-
ment on the boy.
Wards case was so fragrant that the
stewards adopted the only conrse open to
them and ruled him off for life. AS this
decision will be Endorsed by all cracks
under the board of control, Ward Will have
to walk Tor the rest of his days.
There were signs for Ferguson when,
after delay of fifty minutes at the post,
Starter /. Jones proved utterly unable to

kins. off on equal terms. Jones was more
successful during the rest of the day, but the
lost time could not be made up, and IL was
cutie late ere the tired spectators reached
town.
A field Of twelve went to the post for the
first event, and Annie Moore. Wait and
Gold Dust were the public's pick. The
start was poor one, but the favorite, riden
by Weber, got well away, and catching

The betting on the second race was Pc
culiar. Joshua opened at z to 5 and then
declined to to 5. when Narvaez was sub,
stituted for Williams, and the horse jumped
10 8. After fifty minutes were wasted at
the post the field got away on fairly good
terms, and the favorite taking the lead won
easily from Malcolm. whose boy took mat
tiers exceedingly easily, but beat Cyclone by
head for place. Joshua was bought in by
his owner for S1750.
Flair and Crawford were about equal
favorites for the third race. with AerOlite
and st. Croix next in demand. The start
was a good one. and st Croix and Aerolite
at once took command. At the balf-mie
Crawford ran up first. and Ward, taking a
good pull at st. Crolx, brought him back
into the ruck. Crawford Kept his lead TO
the finish. winning easily from Flair. who
beat Reta by hall length for the place.
Aeroite, who looked like winning in the
stretch. died away at the finish and was
fourth.
Castro had no difficulty in dlsposing Of
Wicklow and Alliance in the fourth event.
The winner started at to i. Alliance at 4
to carrying most money.
With ten on the card for the last event it
was expected there would be q long delay
at the post, but Jones did not keep the pub
lie waiting long and the flag fell 10 good
start. The Iris filiy got well away. was in
the lead after the first 200 yards had been
traversed and won very comfortably FROM
Joe Cotton, who came fast at the finish and
beat the mueh-fancied Garcia by neck for
the place.
This closed an interesting days sport. but
1t Is sincerely to be hoped that the starter
will have better control over the boys when
he next encounters them.
