ton Becoming Intense.
Dies MoINE s. To-, Feb. 29.-Interest
in the situation in the Legislature on the
prohibition questionais becoming In
tense in Iowa. The belief that the law
will be repealed is growing every day.
No one can give reason for this change

classes of people there is no question.

the question will be made In the house.

ROAD To DISCORCE.
The Notorious Railroad Bonds
Of Plainsville and Elgin
Townships.
Their Illegality Upheld by the
United States Supreme
Court.
Winona & st. Peter Railroad
the Loser by
100000.
End OF a PpOtracted and
Somewhat Bitter Legal
Fight.

The supreme court of the United
States yesterday rendered a decision
which will be of interest to the towns
of Plainview and Elgin, MINI. The
decision was in the case OF these towns
against the Winona IL st. Peter Railroad
company, in which the supreme court
dismissed the writs of error for want of
jurisdiction. This, in effect, affirms the
judgment of the sdpreme court of Min
nesota, and ends a long and vexatious
litigation. By this decision the towns
will recover of the Winona & st. Peter
Railroad company 100000. The suits
which resulted in this decision were
brought by Davis, Kellogg q Severance,
of st. Paul, as attorneys for the towns,
to recover the amount of 100000 In
bonds issued by the towns of Plainview
and EIgin in 1878 to the railroad named,
together with interest thereon. The
suits were brought in the district court
of Wabasha county. This court
held that the bonds had not
been constitutionally issued, and
the supreme court of Minnesota
affirmed this decision upon appeal taken
by the railroad company. The bonds
were issued upon petition of number
of taxpayers, but before they were is
sued George w. Harrington applied for
an injunction to restrain the railroad
from selling the bonds, alleging that as
they had not been issued upon vote
taken by the taxpayers, but only upon
petition of part of the taxpay-
ers, the law authorizing them
was unconstitutional. Pending this
application for Injunction the railroad
company sold and disposed of the bonds
to innocent purchasers. and these suits
were brought to recover the amount OF
the bonds with interest. The judg-
ment of the district court of Wabasha
county was twice affirmed by the SUI
preme court of Minnesota. when the
railroad company sued out a writ OF
error to the supreme court of the United
States. and that court holds tina. no
federal questions were involved, and
that it had no Jurisdiction

A LIBERAL VICTORY.
Keen Contest in the Commons OF
England.

LONDON, Feb. 29.-In the house Of
commons today the bill promoted by
the London county council proposlngito
connect the tramwavs of South and
North London was opposed by the Con-
servatives as putting in practice the
Socialist principles held by the major
ity of the council. The Liberals
supported the bill. After long
debate the measure passed its second
reading by vote of 100 to 1873. The an
nouncement of the vote was greeted
with opposition cheers, though it was
not government defeat. The division
was conducted with the keenest inter
est. There was whip out on each
side. The result was tantamount to a
Liberal victory. While the questions
were proceeding Mr.. Gladstone entered
the house from behind the speakers
chair. As soon as he was seen he was
greeted with a hearty cheer.

NEW ORLEANS BIG TIME.
Crowds Pouring In for the FIghts-Sulli-
wants Arrival.

NEW ORLEANS. Sep. 5.-No election,
Presidential or local, has caused more ex-
element in this city than is now shown
here. The chief streets are all crowded
with men who live here and men who
don't, and the subject is prize fighting,
or, as they call it here, glove contests.
Boys of eight years are heard to offer
bets of anywhere from two cents to ten
that SO and so will win in his fight, and
the whole populace is on the qui vive as
q collection of adherents of the prize
fighting art.
The John L. Sullivan train got in here
at about 4:30 a. M, and John was inn
mediately driven to No. 40 North Ram
part street, private dwelling, where his
friends had rooms engaged for him.
Right across the way from this house is
the clubhouse of the Young Mems Gym
nastic Club, which organization had ex-
tended to the champion an invitation to
come and do any work he wanted to.
John notified the club that he would be
delighted, and took up his quarters at the
address named with alacrity.
Sullivan's journey through the South
was more in the nature of a triumphal
procession, so far as the receptions ac-
corded to the champion were concerned.
At many places were the train stopped
crowds congregated to cheer and admire
the pugilist.
Sullivan passed most of the time while
enroute, when not asleep, in a manner
that encouraged his friends. He skipped
the rope, tossed the ball, punched the bag
moderately, and used light dumb bells
with energy.
These exercises were undertaken twice
during each day.
After them Sullivan was rubbed down,
and when he arrived here he looked like
a OILS in a
he feels the same way that he looks.
He told reporter that he was as good
as ever in his life, and that he had no
doubt about winning. His eyes snapped
as he spoke and he showed unusual spirit.
The arrangements made by the club to
insure the perseverance of peace at the
ring side are complete. A committee of
$50 selected members of the club, assisted
by $50 police officers will have the work
in charge. Howe Hodgkins and Billy
Vale, both of Boston have arrived.
Hodgkins was the man mentioned as one
of McAuliffe's seconds and afterwards
named as one of the men who would
probably be in Corbett's corner.
There were more reports to-day of
McAuliffe's bibulous habits. 1t is
| asserted that he was drinking beer two
days ago and that it was owing to his
appetite for strong drink that he was
making hard work of it to get down to
| weight.
Every seat for the Sullivan orbett
| fight has been sold.
Late arrivals will have to take what
they can get, but the Olympic manage
ment expresses confidence in being able
to accommodate every one who comes
here to witness the battle.
From the size of the crowd of strangers
already in the city and arriving by every
train, it is not likely that more than half
who are anxious to see the fight will be
| able to get in.
Tonight occurs the McAuliff e. Myer

BIG PARADE IN NEW YORK CITY.

NEW YORK, Sep. 5.-Labor Day is be-

rated with the badges of their union.
The parade was the big event of the
day. 1t formed at o'clock, and moved
shortly after 10. There were between
ID, 600 and IA 900 men in line. It was
preceded by a platoon of mounted police
followed by the grand marshal, A. IF
