RAILWAY INTERESTS.

ARTICLES of incorporation of the Baltimore
and Ohio Connection Railroad Company
ha We been filed at Springfield, Ill.
JAMES L. TAYLOR, late General Passenger
Agent of the Richmond and Danville sys-
TEN, has been appointed General European
Passenger Agent of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road with office in London. This office has
just been created.
THE passenger agents of of the ID rail-
railroads entering Peoria met with a COM
mittee of the Travellers Protective As
sociation to arrange for an interchangea BILE
mileage book over all railroads entering the
city. Six of the roads agreed to issue
5 000-mile book.
The Chicago Ruilrdy Age, in its report of
railroad building during the first half of
1892, says 1856 miles of new main track have
been laid in the period named, distributed
among lis lines in 35 of the States and Terri
tories. Last year at this time 172s miles of
track had been laid, and yet the entire year
OF 1891 showed the smallest aggregate of
track laying since 1885. A review of the
work in progress does not warrant the be-
lief that the falling off for the entire year of
1892 will be in any such proportion as that
during the first six mon tbs.

MINIMUM TARIFFS.
Fran 90 Concluding Commercial Treaty
with the United states.

France Concluding Commercial Treaty
With the United states.
PARIS, Jan. lie Temps says TIE
government is on the eve of concluding
q convention with the United States for
the partial application of the minimum
tariff. This agreement, LIE Temps says,
differs from those pending between
France and come other European pow
ers, in requiring that it be submitted to
parliament for ratification. The new
convention, LIE Temps adds, secures con-
tinuance ON the American free list of q
number of French products, including
skins, sugars and molasses. The paper
further says that President Harrison in
tended, on January lst. to enforce
against those products the duties APP
plicable to imports from countries that
refused to concede to the United States
reciprocal advantages. To secure un-
broken enjoymentof exemption from the
payment Of those duties, the minister
OF foreign affairs negotiated the conven-
ton referred to, by the terms OF which
the United states gets the minimum
tariff on products entering France, the
export value OF which amounts to 12,-
COO 900 francs annually, and which is
equal in value TO French products ex-
empte,I from duty t,v the United States.

ments Confirmed.

rible Ravages of Famine and Small
pox-Dublin Dynamiters-Oth-
er Foreign News.
Associated Press Dispatches.

LONDON, Jan. 2.-Telegrams have
been received here from Congo which
confirm the statements made by Father
Ohrwalder. He said forty Europeans
are still in the hands of the Mahdists at
Ondurman. They are loaded with man.
acles and cruelty beaten. In telling OF
the mode of life while in captivity
Father Ohrwalder said the Mahdi
granted no provision for the sustenance
of captives, but allowed them sufficient
liberty to earn living as best they
could. Father Ohrwalder lived by tail
oring and weaving, and the sisters by
baking and selling bread. During the
last eighteen months the fugitives lived
in mud huts, but previously their only
shelter was made with their own hands
from cane and maize stalks.
They describe Khartoum as all de-
stroyed, excepting only the Austrian
church and General Gordon's palace,
and they say vegetation is covering the
sites of the houses. During two years
famine and smallpox made fearful
ravages in the Soudan. Maize rose to
ten times its normal value. but now
food is plentiful and cheap.
Today's advices from Congo corrob-
crate Father Ohrwalder's report of the
waning power of the dervishes in
Southwestern Soudan. They state that
frequent conflicts occurred between the
Mahdists and the native chiefs, and the
latter were often victorious.
Father Ohrwalder and the sisters
travelled direct from Korosko to Cairo
and dispatch received from the last
named city, stated that the priest in
speaking of affairs in the Soudan, had
said the numerous widows OF the Mahdi
are complaining that the Khalifa Abdal-
lah does not provide them with main
tenauce befitting their stations, and that
their grievance had been supported by
the Khalifa Ally Sherf. The latter also
oppose Abdallah's scheme of making
the mahdiship succession hereditary,
instead OF as provided for by Mahomet.
These dissensions are weakening the
power OF mahdism, and Father Ohr-
walder says the people would welcome
any chance to relieve them from its
tyranny.

WATCHING FOR DyNAMIrERs.
1t Is Now Certain That Bomb Wa
Exploded in Dublin Castle.

Exploded In Dublin CasClos
DUBLIN, Jan. 1.-Since the explosion
in Dublin castle, Thursday last. the
police have been vigilant in watching
for the suspected dynamiters. The GUS
toms officers, too, have developed extra
activity in searching the effects of pass
engers landing at Queenstown from
transatlantic steamers. They always
made it a point to seize under the law
any arms or ammunition brought into
the country by either residents or for
eigners, but since Thursdays affair,
they are stricter than ever. Thomas
Ryan, United States army pensioner,
who was q passenger on the Cunard
steamer Etruria which has arrived at
Queenstown, was taken into custody on
the charge Of concealiDg loaded revol-
yer and supply OF ammunition.
The theory that the explosion at Dub
lin castle was that OF gas was effectually
disposed of today. Those making an
investigation, in examining the beams
supporting the floor directly over the
cellar, where the explosion occurred,
found number of small pieces of metal
deeply imbedded in the timbers. This
is evidence beyond question that the OK
plosion was caused by an explosive,
whatever it may have been, that was
inclosed in q metal case. The investi-
CATION is still going on, and the police
hope it will reveal some clue that will
lead to the detection OF the perpetrators
nf the outrage

A NOVEL PRIZE FIGHT.
An Indianapolis Pugilist Knocked Out

An indianapolis Pugilist Knocked Out
by a Woman.
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 2.-The local aport-
ing fraternity are much puzzled over the
results of prize fight, news of which
leaked out today. 1t occurred yesterday
morning at the roadhouse of Sim Coy,
the notorious politician and tally-sheet
forger. One of the principals was Pat
rick Mcmahon who has some reputation
as featherweight pugilist, but the more
interesting of the two was a woman
whose identity is not revealed, but who
is thought to be the wife of railroad
conductor on the "Big Four" she was
dressed in tights and short skirts and
tipped the beam at 166 pounds. The
matter was kept very quiet, and only
about two dozen 'sports" were admitted.
Seven bloody rounds were fought, in
each of which the woman had the best
of it. The seventh finished both in such
bad condition that half an hour had to
be given. Two more rounds were
fought. The ninth ended with McNa-
hon stretched upon the floor, knocked
out by heavy blow from the amazon's
left upon his neck. She was awarded a
purse of $500.

Another Of the French Bishops Defies
the Government.
PARIS, Jan. "A case somewhat SIM
liar to the case of the rchbishop of
AK has arisen between the govern
ment and the rchbishop of Carcassone.
The order issued by the government at
the time of the Pantheon incident for
bidding French bishops to leave their di-
oceaes without permission from the min
lister OF justice and public worship, is still
in force. 1t was this rule that the arch
bishop of AK violated, and the bishop
of Carcassone has also refused to obey,
and recently went to Rome. In conse-
quence the minister OF Justice sup
pressed the bishops stipend for the pe-
riod of his absence from his see. The
bishop asserts that he went to Rome
merely in the fulflment OF his spirit
ual duty, as he had done in previous
years. 1t is not known what action the
government will take, but to be con-
sistent, it will have to prosecute him as
they did the archbishop of AK.

Governor Boyd further stated that he
did not place implicit confidence in the
report, but was inclined to wait until
Monday. when the decision would be

Imposing Ceremonies Over the Remains
of Bishop Loughlin.
New YORK. Jan. 2.-The ceremonies
attending the funeral of Bishop Lough-
lin, which took place this morning at
the cathedral N Brooklyn, were Of a
most imposing character, and the fu-
neral cortege was the largest that ever
attended the burial of any prelate in
that city. Long before the hour ap-
pointed for the solemn mass to be sung,
the seats, aisles and galleries were
packed. Many distinguished prelates
were given seats at the altar, while in
the front seats of the middle aisle 300
priests, in their robes, eat. Among the
prelates were: Archbishop Corrigan,
Bishop Metz, of Denver; Bishop elect
Herstman. of Cleveland; Bishop McIn-
erney, Albany: Monsigneur Cantwell,
Philadelphia; Rev. Magnion, president
of St. Mary's seminary, Baltimore, and
special representative of Cardinal Glib
bons, and Bishop Foley, of Detroit. The
mass was celebrated by Archbishop
Corrigan.

says: The close of the year witnessed an

strength, somewhat in contrast with
what is usually experienced at this
time. Indications are that the export
business will revive upon the opening
of the new year, since all foreign ad-
vices were OF firm market. and present
signs are at fault if home requirements
do not prove above, rather than below,
the average for the season.
