RAILROAD RUM6LlNGS.


Rumor has it again that the enormous
and oontinuNilr increasing business Of the
Central Vermont Railroad company has
brought President Smith to the conclusion
that another line must be built from ST.
AlbsIs to Essex Junction, making a double
track road bstwoen these places, in order to
handle traffic. From Essex junction to
Bellows Falls, the Central Vermont is prac-
tioa!ly a double track road, the lines via
White River junction aud Rutland merg-
ing together OF the latter village. The
road from Essex Junction TO st. Albans is
frequently block AIDED with freight cars aud
tralns, nearly ell the freight which goes
over the Central aud Rutland divisions

PRISON REFORM.
Criminal immigration the Greatest

BALTIMORE, Dec. 3. - AT the annual
meeting of the National Prison Association,
held in this city to-day, ex-Presldent Hayes
delivered very interesting address, re-
viewing the work of the society aud the
growth Of crime through immigration. He
said in part: The object Of the true prison
reformer Is the protection OF society and
individuals by the prevention of crime. The
training of the young is the most indis-
pensable duty and the chief business of
every generation. Plainly speaking, immi-
grafton, as 1t exists to-day, is rock in the
path OF progress in America. A high au-
thority places the number of the criminal
and morally defective classes in the United
States at l in 100 of the total population
Consider the awful significance Of any in
crease OF our criminal population. In a
single decade many thousands come to us
by emigration from Europe alone. Formerly
the love OF liberty and a desire to better
their condition were the leading motives of
emigration from Europe to America. Now

SAN DIEGO, Dec. "a special to the

del Coronado. She was Miss Lizzie Wyllie
of that city. and left home five weeks ago.
She had been engaged In the book bndery
of Wynn & Hammond until about two
months ago. when she was discharged on
account of the undue intimacy which had
sprung up between Miss Wyllie and John
LOngfeld, an employe, who was also dis

Breckenridge Talks on the Tariff and
Bland Says Something About the
Silver Problem.
Special 10 THE MORNING CALL

WASHINGTON, Dec. g. - Representative
Breckenridge of Kentucky, who opposes an
extra session, thinks that the Democratic
tariff revision bill should be prepared under
the direction of Mr.. Cleveland. Breekin-
ridge said he thought that Cleveland should,
with the assistance of his Cabinet and the
officials, prepare tariff bill TO be submitted
10 Congress in lieu of q mere message in
recommendation. The bill. he says could
then be considered in the Committee of
Ways and Means. and such amendments as
might be agreed on could be adopted in the
House and Senate and great deal Of time
and trouble could be saved.
Senator Palmer off Illinois says he favors
an extra session provided the Democrats can
reach a definite agreement as to exactly
what matters should be taken up. The
Senator put in good word for State Treas
urer Z. S. Wilson OF Illinois as Secretary of
Agriculture in Cleveland's Cabinet.
Representative Bland of Missouri. chair
man of the Coinage Committee, was asked
by an Associated Press reporter what he
thought would be the effect of the failure of
the international monetary conference TO
agree on anything, he replied: Il don't see
that it would have any effect one way or
the other. / don't think the public gen.
orally expect much of it."
"Do you expect anything from the con-
ference?"
Il do not. and" he added decisiveiy, II
never have"
Suppose the conference should fail and
that a proposition should then be made 10
repeal the Sherman law-what then?"
THAT will be proposed anyway, pre-
sumo. / am in favor Of repeating il il we
cannot get something better for silver. /
don't like the Sherman law myself"

which he details with no little verbosity the
reason why Osborne acted illegally in taxi
Ing possession Of the office, dilates on the
causes that prevented the canvass Of the
State vote. and concludes with the assertion
Of his own authority.
The document was signed by Barber

as Secretary of State.
At noon to-day Osborne's position was
changed from one of siege. He had all day
yesterday been enclosed in the Governors s
Office with BARRIERS secretary, but during
the night the secretary fell asleep and was
promptly locked up in a separate room By
Osborne. The change came with the arrival
of a number of friends for whom the pre-
viouslV stubborn doors flew open. Os-
borne, after delberation. appointed as his
private secretary a well-known politician,
Timothy Dyer.

HIS ARrIY FALSE.
The Awful Blow That Has Fallen on
the Kaiser,

BERLIN, Dec. 3-Prussia to-day found
Its Panama scandal In the Moabt Grim
inal Court, when. after having been taunted
for lack Of veracity. Rector Ahlwardt
produced five official documents which
proved to be reports made by colonels 10
their generals adverse to the Lowe guns.
THESE must have been stolen, probably by
an officer, who. if found out, is liable to ten
years. penal servtude.
A greater scandal or a more sensational |
episode could not have occurred. The army
officers. who were present in large numbers
were aghRst. At first they looked incredu-
lous, but when the Judge examined the
documents and pronounced them authentic
their dismay knew no bounds.
A telegraphic message was at once sent
TO the Emperor, who is shooting 10 Saxony,
to spprise him Of the startling Developments
and OF the blow which has fallen on the
army.
Tie documents show that out of 900 Lowe
guns used at Vessel $50 were uaserviceable.
Twenty of the chambers had burst and
were broken entirely. 1t must be remem-
bered that there are 425.000 Lowe guns in
the German army This Is terribly awk-
ward for the Government. which is bound
by necessity to do everything to hush up
the scandal.
