John w. Jacobus, Esq, United States
Marshal:
Dear Sir--In your letter of November
8 you quote but portion Of section 2,O22
of the United States revised statutes and
that in such a manner rs to convey "A
wrong impression as to its meaning.
The section in it's entirety was before
Judge Beaver in the case brought to your
attention in our former communication
and after careful consideration and con-
struction Of the section, he distinctly de-
clared that no marshal could arrest man
until after he had cast his vote, if accept
ed by the judges of election.
You, therefore, overrule the express
decision Of a United States judge upon
the supreme bench and assert for your
self arbitrary power on your mere
suspicion TO dsfranchse voters.
We naturally prefer to rely upon the
decision of the Court. Yours, etc,
The COMMITTEE.

MONTREAL, Nov z. - The Canadian
cattle trade, on account of the cancelliug
of the privilege of allowing Canadian
cattle to be permitted to land and
Craze in British pastures, has received a
blow which will have the effect Of paral-
iZing at least one-third of the trade
Next season American cattle will be
able to enter Canada unhindered by

trade in Canada, as Americans have been
anxious to start establishments here.
Canadian farmers will suffer largely, as

FREAKS OF A LOCOMOTIVE.

Runs Away at viii and Excites the Curl
osity of Railroad Mon.
No. GAIT" of the Louisville & Nash
vile system is dangerous engine. She
is the smallest owned by the Louisville
& Nashville road, and was built by the
Kansas Central.
A few weeks ago, while she was in
the round house, relates the Cincinnati
Post, Engineer Gilmore and his fireman
went into the Office, and while they
were away old "417" suddenly struck
out and butted the big iron doors Of the
round house down before she could be
stopped. The throttle was unmoved,
and the strange actions of ''417'' could
not be understood.
An examination by an expert me-
chanic revealed nothing, however.
''That engine needs watching" Yard
master NIaher informed his men.
Engineer Gilmore was called to the
main Office in Cincinnati and asked to
explain the actions of ''417' while in
his charge. He could not explain, but
the boss Of this division said that it was
impossible for a locomotive to run off
of its own accord, and laid off Gilmore.
But on Saturday old "417'' indicated
Gilmore.
Just at $40 u. IN. she broke out the
main track at breakneck speed.
She was left standing on the coal
track about $3.50 by her crew. The
throttle was closed and water in the
boiler turned off.
But the ''triclzy mule" of the Coving-
ton yards broke the switch and rushed
pell-mell out on the main track. Old
dr. was on rampage, but it being
dark nobody saw her. Upon reaching
the Milldalc intersection of the K. G.
and L. n. roads she rushed through the
swinging gate and reduced it to splin-
ters. Two miles further out a stray
horse was run over. But in the mean
time five closed switches were broken
open.
Seven miles out "417'' stopped. The
fire had gone out and the boiler was
empty when Yardmaster Maher reached
it on a special engine at half-past nine
o'clock. Luckily the overdue freights
were delayed by an accident at Menzies'
Station, in Pendleton county
Had it not been for that another ac-
cidcnt could not have been averted, for
''417'' stood on the main track just
around a deep curve for about two
hours. Yardmaster Maher was joyous
when the lost engine was sighted.
Old railroad men cannot account for
her strange actions, and few, if any,
ever heard of similar case to the one
above described. 1t seems prepostcr-
Gus that locomotive standing on a
side track alone should half an hour
later strike out Of its own accord and
run seven miles unnoticed by anybody.

CHOKRD EIGHT GIRLS
Schneider, the Vienna Mur.
derer, Confesses.
DESCRIBES THE AWFUL DETAILS
His Victims Were Always Conscious
When He Attacked Them.

He Accuses His Wife of Assisting Him in
the Horrible wOrk--He Would Seize a
Victim BY the Breast With His Left
Hand and strangIe Her With the Right
Practice Made Perfect.
VIENNA, Jan. 27.-The trial of Frank
Schneider and his wife Rosalie, CHI arged
with numbering eight servant girls
whom they had decoyed, was continued
yesterday.
The skull and hair of Rosalie Klein
rath, one of the murdered girls, and the
torn and bloody clothing worn by her at
the time of her death, were produced by
the prosecution.
The sight Of the gruescmo objects
seemed to unnerve Schneider, and he
finally broke down and confessed that he
was guilty of numbering Rosalie Klein
rath and the other girls.
Amid the most intense excitement the
prisoner described in all its horrible de-
tails his method Of strangling the girls,
who were lured to their death in his
house. He said that he had not en-
ployed chloroform in any instance. His
victims were always conscious when he
attacked them, and he was assisted in
his horrible work by his wife. She, he
struggling girls, while he grasped them
by the neck and choked their life out
At this point the woman interrupted
herhusbapd by excitedly shouting: 81 am
your next victim. I never took part in
the crimes"
Medical evidence was produced to show
the great strength possessed by Schnei-
der This testimony was brought out
for the purpose of showing that Schnei-
der was SO strong that hit did not need
the assistance of his wife to grip the
threats of his victims and choke them to
death
Schneider here volunteered to tell how
the murders were committed, and
dramatically went through the blood
curdling performance. He showed how
he used to seize the struggling victims
by the breast with his left hand and
with his powerful right hand clutched
them by the throat and thus strangled
the poor creatures.
In concluding his confession Schneider
said that he had not killed the first
woman he had robbed, because he had
not at that time had the prastice in the
method of strangling which he after
wards acquired.

The Work Of the Creator as
Seen In Our Solar System.

Almost every day it is our privilege to
stand in the presence of death; we believe
that the horrid idea we have of death
exists only in the Imagination. There Is
aIyvavs ioy nt every birth even i'll the
midst Of poverty there is secret joy. Why
ia IL not reaso able to think and hope that
in the phenomena of death there il new
birth9 And if so, why not JOY in the new
life2 While inventory is going on in the
mercantile world, and while we are re-
ioicinu over our own little achievements,
Il enlarges the mind to look at the work of
the Great Architect as seen in our solar
system. The sun stands in the center,
around which are six other worlds. The
nearest is Mercury, which is $4,000, 900
miles from the sun; the next is Venus,
which is 81 900, 900 miles; the next is our
Earth, which is 90, 900, 900 miles; the next
Mars. which is 1874, 900, 900 miles from the
ann. the 6fth is Jupiter, which is 557, 000,
600 miles: the sixth is Saturn, which is
763, 900 900 miles from the sun. We
wonder if they are taking inventory up
there2 II they will throw us line Edison
will communicate with them. The won
lerful progress made on South Main
street in this planet, reminds us of the
solar system. Here is Jacques audi

called the center, "the Green" is now lost

which cluster around the GREATER

The marvellous success of the Waterbury
Furniture Co, seems to have attracted the
mighty intellects of western Connecticut

people some of the time; but you can't

LONDON, Jan. ga dispatch from
Santiago says that the CHILEAN Foreign
Minister, in accordance with the con-
clusion arrived at by President Mont
and the Cabinet, and after consulting
with the Counsel of State, which is
merely formal act, the Council being
identical with the President and Cabinet,
has answered the American ultimatum
in terms that, it is believed, will satisfy
the President and the government of
America In view of the disparity be-
tween the forces of the two powers, it
would seem that Chilli had no other re
source than to make the sacrifices of
dignity necessary to satisfy the powerful
nation making the demand.

EATING HORSEFLESH.
1t Is Considered Reasonably Good by

1t Is Considered Reasonably Good by
Divers Wisconsin Men.
A Wisconsin man had pony which
he decided to kill for the purpose of
using its hide for robe, says the Madi-
son (Wis.) Journal. The animal was
rolling fat and in excellent condition.
After it was killed some of the meat
was cut off and cooked, numbe hav-
ing expressed a curiosity to know how
horsefesh tasted. At one of the sa-
looms in the city it was partal1en of, and
those who ate the meat pronounced it
good, rather coarse. Some were not in
formed as to the nature of the meat I'M
til after they had expressed an opinion
as to it's flavor and tenderness. Inva-
riably they praised it's flavor and paid
tribute to it's juiciness Among those
who were called upon to express an
opinion was city butcher, who was
asked to speak as an expert. The dish
was set before him and he ate heartily.
He said that he could tell any kind of
meat that was brought to him; that there
was an unmistakable flavor in meat
which a man who had been in the butch
ering business as long as he had could
detect. He praised the meat before him
as to flavor, but said it was triae
coarse, indicating that it was not taken
from the best part of the beast. Then
you know, do you, just what kind Of
meat you are eating?" asked the pro-
prietor. Eyes, SIR "Weu, tell us
what it is cit is a cut of roast from a
steers neck" said the diner. Upon be-
ing informed of the real nature of the
meat he expressed great surprise that it
should be found so familiar in flavor to
bovine flesh, and this was echoed by all
the others

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 27.-One reason
urged why the CHILEAN war vessels
would not visit this port is a lack of
coal. There is no place in the entire
Pacific ocean where Gillian cruiser can
obtain the requisite amount of coal
needed to keep at sea for any length of
time. All neutral ports would be closed
against cruisers of both beligerents and
once the supply of coal on board a war
ship ran short, her only salvation would
be to reach some port in her own country
where she could replenish her bunkers.
