TWO SEATS QUESTIONED.

Parnellites Allege Undue Priestly Influence
Against Davitt and FuIlam.
DUBLIN, Aug. AT meeting of lead
ing members Of the Parnellite party in this
city to-day, it was agreed that petition be
issued protesting against the return of
Michael Davitt and Patrick Fullam, Anti
Parnellites, to the House of Commons from
the North and South divisions of Meath,
respectively.
This action is taken on the ground that
the election of the two men was owing to
the undue influence exercised by the priests
over the electors. A portion of the 81, 200
necessary to lodge the petition with the
proper authorities was subscribed at the
meeting.

allure to Act on Rate-Cutting
VeXed the Magnate,

NEW YORK, Jan. IA number of
railway officials are of the opinion to-
DAY that the Western Traffice associa-
ton will in all probability break up
within six months. Its regular quar-
terly meeting was adjourned at the
Windsor yesterday afternoon almost
Immediately after Jay Gould had
served the members in attendance with
notice that the Missouri Pacific would
withdraw from the association atthe ex-
piration of the ninety days provided for
in such cases.
1t has been generally supposed that
the meeting of the railway representa-
lives had been harmonious. Monday,
however, after some routine work had
been done away with and several ques-
tons were decided, Mr.. Gonld. who had
so far been taking an inactive part in
the proceedings, remarked quietly that
If action was not taken in the cases of
|, the three roads which had been guilty
of rate cutting the Missouri Pacific
would withdraw. There was no re-
Spouse from any of the guilty ones. nor
from Presiding Officer Miller. There
upon Mr.. Gould rose, picked up his hat,
and walked out of the room.
After Mr. Gould retlred the subject of

Quincy in one case, the Atchison and

nOred or passed over without action.
On Tuesday no action was taken in the
rate cutting cases, and yesterday Vice
President Clark served notice on the
association that the Missouri Pacific
would withdraw in nirety days. The
other members present were startled
and SO much taken back that after only
a few minutes further talk motion to
adjourn was put and carried.
In signed statement today Mr..
Gould denies the published assertions
in the proceedings of the meeting of the
Presidents association Yesterday that
the charges against the Burlington, the
Southern Pacific and the Atchison were
brought forward by him. He added: II
knew nothing of the charges until they
were submitted and read by the chair
man at the meeting, so, of couse, l
neither instigated nor aided in their
preparation. The charges were pre-
Sented by the commissioners in the

SUING A TRUST.
A Chicago Preserver Asks Big
Damages

CHICAGO, Jan. 14.-Andrew d. Bish-
OPP, fruit preserve manufacture of this
city, filed suit for Sl25, 500 damages IN
the United States circuit court TODAY
against the American Preseryers COM
pany and its trustees, alleging that the
company is a trust. monopoly and con-
spiracy to restrict trade and increase
the prices of the goods it's members
manufacture He also alleges that bv
threats of running his business the trust
forced him into the combination, but
finding it 70 be an illegal concern he
dropped out. after which the trust
seized his entire business, and is now in
possession of it.
The trustees sued are Bernard E..
Ryan, Benjamin Fenton, Albert r.
Brewer, L. E. Donghterty, G. A. Max
Weihle, F. r. Jennings, Henry Will
Jams. Max Ame, T. A. Snider, l.. P.
Best, r. H. Griggs, Robert Krause and
+. K. Blunt, who, before the organize
ton of the trust were, it Is stated, the
owners or officers in fruit preserving
companies In Buffalo. Washington. New
York city. indianapolis, Detroit, Gin
cinnati and Davenport.
This evening Attorney Linden Evans.
who is acting for Bishop, said: "The
case is destined to be notable one in
the history of trust legislation. The suit
is brought under Senator Sherman's
trust law, enacted July 2, 1890, of which
it will be test case, and will surely go
to the supreme court before it is finally
settled. The public is deeply interested,
for if a trust can operate in this manner
in fruit, there is no reason why it can
not be extended to all the produce
of the country. Under Sherman's
law, If any one is injured by
trust he can recover threefold dam
ages. and also cash and attorneys fees.
Bishops loss, as near as he can estimate
it, as the trust had his books, amounts
to 1000. Trebling this and allowing
for costs and attorneys fees, the dam.
ages are S125,000. We are confident we
can recover close to this sum. The
trust Is a West Virginia corporation and
has its offices at Pittsburg." According
to Attorney Evans, it has never paid a
cent of dividends, and Its SS,0OO.O0O Of
fered as credit was four times watered.

A DEAD AGREEMENT.
The One Binding Presidents
Believed to Be at Break

And the Western Traffic AS.
ISOLATION May Be Quickly
at an End.
GOuld'S Demand for DiSci-
pline Admitted to Be q
Just One.
Failure to Elect Commission
ers Regarded as Very
0minouS.

CHICAGO, Jan. 14.-GOsSip in railway
circles today indicates a pretty general
belief that the Western Traffic associa-
: ton will soon be thing of the past.
This opinion is based upon such infor
nation as has been received concerning
the proceedings of the presidents meet
ing in New York. While Mr.. Gould did
not make the charges against the Bur
llngtoD, the Atchison and the Southern
Pacific, he did demand that the roads in
question be dealt with precisely in the
manner that they had dealt with the
Missouri Pacific when Traffic Man
ager Leeds lost his head, as they had
been convicted of rate cutting by the
commissioners. and the illegal tariffs
produced in proof.
1t does not appear from any reports
received here that any action was taken
by the advisory board looking to the
punishment of the defendant compan-
les, and it is admitted on every hand
that Mr.. Gould is fully justified III CIV
Ing notice of withdrawal from the asso-
citation. But no one seems to doubt that
the withdrawal of the Missouri Pacific
Will CduoC a SClitIdl okdlDpCuC dIll IIlC
presidents agreement will go by the
board.
Another thing that causes comment is
the failure OF the presidents to elect
commissioners for the ensuing year.
This. in itself, is regarded as
OminOus, as under the agree
ment the terms of the present
commissioners have expired and a re-
election is necessary to continue them
in service. All Of them except Chair
man Walker are provided for as chair
men of the several auxiliary associa-
tiOns. but the disruption of the parent
organization. or failure to re-elect,
leaves MIR. Walker without position.
Commissioner Finley was asked today
what the specific charges were against
the roads that were decided to be guilty
of rate-cutting, but he declined to speak
0I the matter aJ all. LII the case of the
| Burlington it is supposed that the
| charges have reference to the issuing of
an Irregular tariff on wool.

Wind-Up of the Amateur Billiard

w. S. Monroe won the hat in the play
off with Hardacre at Foley's billiard
hail last evening, and this ends the first
amateur billlard-championship tourna-
ment in st. Paul, Clark was to have
been in the play but he forfeited, being
unable to leave his business.
The game was desperate struggle
from the bank shot to the finish, when
Monroe had scored his hundred points.
There were ties time aud again during
the game, and when Monroe had only
six to go and missed, Hardacre'S string
showed nine points short. He ran eight,
and had the worries close together with
the red frozen" to the cushion. 1t was
the easiest sort of kiss shot, but in the
eXuberance of certain victory seemingly
already in his grasp, he smashed his bail
a terrific stroke aid the red kissed him
straight away from the rail. Whereas,
have been impossible not to have
scored. Capt. Hardacre. however, sat
down with the exclamation:
"Ah! that's all right: the balls are
perfectly safe. He can't make count
and Pll make assurance doubly sure
next time.''
Monroe said nothing but nerved him.
self for the shot and he encompasSed
the count. meriting the applause that
followed the effort. But the balls were
still wide ana it was dubious chance.
Yet he succeeded again, and had run
five when the aspect was mighty dis
couragihg again.
DO you want that hat?' Monroe
asked.
No; that is don't particularly need
it." responded the genial captain. but
Pll win it, though"
IF you DONE need it. I do; so here's
for the hat" and the cue ball sped
around the table from the white and
came back squarely into the face of the
red.
The game was won and Monroe will
wear the tile.
