The Railway COmissiOn.

The Hallway ComissiOn.
The railway commission yesterday
disposed of some important cases. In
the case of V. A. Sanders and others
of BERTHE county who desired that the
Cashie and Roanoke railway be re-
quired to re-establish its track taken
up in 1889 from Lewiston, the COM
mission decided that it had no right to
make the requirement the track hav-
ing been taken up before the commits
sion was established. In the case from
Cleveland county whose commission
ers asked the commission to annui The
charter of the Southern and Western
railway for failure to conduct the road,
the action was dismissed because salts
factory arrangements have been made
between the parties. Complaints have
been filed against the Suffolk and
Carolina railway alleging that the
tariff charges are excessive and
that there is discrimination. The
authorities of the Western North
Carolina railway informed the commits,
sion that they would at once begin to
put in proper and safe condition the
Murphy branch, against which such
serious complaint has been made. In
the Case of Coffield and others agains,
the Wilmington and Weldon railway
asking for better station accommoda
tions at Tarboro, Bethel and Everett S
the railway informed the commission
that orders have been issued to compl,
with the instructions of the commits
sion. This case is held open unit
those instructions are complied with
In the case of citizens of Wilson
against the Wilmington and Weldol
railway, asking for better station facil
tiles, the commission issued an orde
requiring compliance with former in
structions. The railway officials stat
that they are endeavoring to secure
site. A complaint was also filed again:
the discontinuance of the station q

MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota, June q

Harrisonians, which arrived yesterday,
was reinforced by the appearance on
the scene of John C. New, to whom
the president has entrusted the man.
agement of his cause. Mr.. New pre-
fessed the greatest confidence in the
prospects for the nomination of his chief
tain on the first allot. Chairman Clark
son himself headed the Blaine delegation
and he had with him j. Sloat Fassett, of
New York; H. C. Payne, of Milwau-
kee; j. P. Sanbern, of Port Huron,
Mich, Sen Hansborough, of North
Dakota; A. L. Conger, of Akron,
Ohio. and other prominent anti-Har-
risonians. "Blaine will be nominal
ted" said Mr.. Clarkson. "Will he
accept" was asked. "Did any man
ever refuse?" he replied with smile.
The executive committee, it is given
out, has agreed on J. Sloat Fassett for
temporary chairman, and Col. Charles
w. johnson, of Minneapolis, for tenn
porary secretary. Both are Blaine
men.
The early arrival ofthe Harrison van
guard has proved great surprise to
the Blaine men. They were not ex.
pecting the Harrison boomers until to-
morrow, and their arrival yesterday
and this morning has opened the pre-
liminary skirmish a day sooner thar
was expected. The plan of the Har
, rison campaign, as far as it ha:
been disclosed in this skirmish
is first to make a vigorous and per

anti-Harrison leaders, and second, if i
