RAILWAY NOTES.

CHICAGO, July lit seems that the
Burlington has grown tired of the boycott
established by the local association of
ticket brokers, and is anxious for peace.
1t is reported that the company has al
ready abandoned its plan Of prosecuting
the scalpers, and has even made overtures
to the association, with the view of having
the fight declared off. To bring about
this result it is claimed that the Burling-
ton agreed with those interested in the
prosecution that the cases now in court
Shall not be brought to trial. If this
means that the Burlington has authority
to speak for all the interested roads, it
follows that the Milwaukee road, which is
also boycotted line, has surrendered and
that the crusade against the brokers which
was begun with such IL flourish has
assumed the character of roaring farce.
President Marvel of the Atchison road,
who has been devoting several weeks to
thorough inspection Of the system, re-
turned today. Mr.. Marvel found the
property everywhere in good condition.
The prospects for increased freight busi-
ness during the next twelve months were
never better. He reports an immense
crop all through the southwest.

THE SILVER BILL,

WSHINGTON. July IA caucus OF the
friends of free coinage was called to meet
at 1870 this evening. The views of the mi
norIty of the coinage committee in oppo-
sitlou 10 the senate tree coinage bill have
been embodied IN a report prepared by
Mr.. Stone OF Pennsylvania. The report
says that the bill is "a conglomeratiou of
crudities aud absurdities, clumsy IN struc-
ture. In part uncertain of inte-pre tation,
aud with the whole dangerous and perni-
cious in operation aud effect" Il then
points out the defects in the bill.
At the caucus tonight of the friends of
free silver" only two Republicans were
present-Messrs. Bowers of California and
Clark OF Wyoming About sixty Demo
Gratis attended. Mr., Dockery of Missouri
presided.
Mr.. Bland opened the discussion and
made an argument in favor Of the bill
Mr.. Culbersou, chairman of the COM
mittee on Judiciary, argued that the
Stewart Uill was legally defective His
speech was listened to with marked atten-
tlon
After further debate the caucus agreed
10 recommend that the bill be amended in
two parIicularS-firSt, by providing that
II shall not affect the legal tender quality
OF the treasury notes issued under the act
OF 1870 or the obligation Of the treasury TO
redeem them, and. second, that the
authority given TO coin Ihe bullion now in
the treasury shall not interfere with the
coinage OF silver when presented by private
parties.

BLEW UP HIS OWN COTTAGE
He Was Only Poor French Soldier, But
He Obeyed Orders.

He Was Only Poor French Soldier, But
He Obeyed Orders.
The story is told in French neyvspa-
per of Pierre Barlat, poor laborer
who lived at Sevres, near Paris, with
his wife, Jeanne, and their three chill
dren. Industrious. frugal, knowing
nothing Of the way to the wine shop,
Pierre saved all his spare money, work
ing harder and harder, and at last
bought the tiny cottage in which they
lived. 1t was q tiny cottage, indeed
built of stones, with tiled roof stand
ing amid shrubs and covered with
clematis- It always attracted the eye
of the traveller, on the left as he crossed
the Sevres bridge.
Pierre and Jeanne worked and
scraped and saved until the little cot
tage was paid for, and made feast
when it was all done to celebrate their
ownership. A landed proprietor, to be
sure, does not mind an occasional ex-
penditure to entertain his friends.
All this Pierre and Jeanne had ac-
complished just before the war of 1870,
with Germany. broke out The con-
scription fell upon Pierre, who, more
over, was an old soldier, and belonged
to the reserves. A gunner he had been,
famous for skill in hitting mark with
shell.
Sevres had fallen into the hands of
the Germans, but the French guns were
pounding away at them from the fort
on Mount Valerian. Pierre Barlat was
hot fnrf nd fru
day, WAS standing by his gun, when
Cen Noel, the commander, came up
and leveled his field glass at the Sevres
bridge.
Gunner" he said sharply, without
looking at Pierre.
General answered Pierre, respect
fully saluting.
do you see the Sevres bridge over
there?"
81 see it very well, sir"
"And that little cottage there, at the
left, in thicket of shrubs?"
Pierre turned pale.
Il see it, sir"
'sIt's nest of Prussians. Try it with
shell, my man."
Pierre turned paler still, and in spite
of the cold wind that made the officers
shiver in their great coats one might
have seen big drops of sweat standing
out on his forehead; but nobody noticed
the gunner's emotion
He sighted his piece carefully, dehb-
erately; then fred.
The officers with their glasses marked
the effect of the shot after the smoke
had cleared. well hit, my man! well
hitp' exclaimed the general, looking at
Pierre, with a smile. 1.-THE cottage
could't have been very solid, 1t is COM
pletely smashed"
He was surprised to see great tears
running down the gunner's checks
whats the matter, man?' the gen.
eral asked, rather roughly.
''Parden me, general" said Pierre,
recovering himself. sit was my house
everything had in the world"

SENATE

WASHINGTON. July 1.-THE two princi-
pal questions before the senate today were
the house anti-option bill and Mr.. Quay's 8
amendment to the appropriation for the
Columbian exposition making it depend
ent upon the closing of the exposition on
Sunday.
On the first question Mr.. Washburn &C.
cupied the attention of the senate for more
than two hours. with an elaborate argu-
ment in favor of the bill He claimed
it to be in the interest of the agricultur-
lists of the United States. because the
prices of their products were unduly low-
cred, not by the law of supply and de-
mand, but by the operations of short sell
ers IN Chicago on the board of trade. He
did not ask any action on the bill itself.
as it was not before the senate for action.
Mr.. Quay's amendment requiring the
Columbian exposition to be closed on Sun
day provoked discussion which lasted
two hours and half, and was not finished
when the senate adjourned.

In view of the contradictory rumors
circulated regarding the intentions OF the
Louisiana State lottery company and in
order to accurately answer numerous in
quiTies. a representative of the Times
Democrat yesterday interviewed Mr.. Paul
Conrad, the president OF the company,
with the results expressed below.
Reporter-Mr Conrad, it was asserted
some weeks ago in the northern news
papers, and the statement has since been
revived recently, that the company is
about to remove to Nicarauga, and there
under a government franchise, open up
the business on a grander scale than ever.
President Conrad-I have heard some
thing of this, but there is no foundation
for it. The company has officially stated
that it bows to the decision of the supreme
court and will respect the laws.
Reporter-Then have you no plans of
future action?
President Conrad-I cannot state the
case more strongly than was done at the
time the company decided not to attempt
to obtain a renewal of its charter. l can
only repeat that the company will con-
tinue in business until the expiration of
its present charter and then cease TO exist.
| cannot understand, after all that has
been said, why there should be any con
fusion i'll the public mind about the
matter
Reporter-Rave you any objection to my
stating this as u finally for the satisfaction
of the public?
President Conrad-Nope whatever.
Reporier-Some of the eastern papers,
Mr.. Conrad, persstently assert that the
lottery company continues to usethe u United
States mails in the prosecution of its
business; Will you kindly tell me if that is
true?
President Conrad-It is utterly untrue

press companies only in our business. and
