Rev Joseph Lee, Pastor OF the Wesley M
T.. Church. Returns from Abroad.
Rev. Jos. Lee. the pastor Of the Yves
lev NJ. L. Church, arrived in the city
yesterday, after an absence Of over two
months. during which time he made a
tour OF Ireland, sections OF Scotland and
England.
In conversation with a REGISTER re-
porter last evening Rev. Lee said;
REV. Fullerton and myself left New
York on the 18th day Of June, and after
a three days pleasant sail we came
In contact with q storm, which 10
some extent retarded the pleasure of
our trip, as the weather grew very cold,
and we were constantly IN a dense fog,
but after six DAYS OF labOriOUS mOnOt-
ony we arrived az Londonderry. Having
taken the trip once before, had some
conception Of what we were TO do. We
made directly for Belfast, from which
point we made our headquarters. l
vas very favorably impressed with Bel
fast, on account OF its thrift and enter
prise. but above all for the hospitality
Of the people.
During our stay at Belfast we were
right in the midst Of the turmoil and
excitement of the Unionist election In
the West Of Belfast. The modes OF
campaign are somewhat similar to
ours. From Belfast l dritted down to-
ward the centre OF that beautiful cOun-
try, stopping of at Portadoun and Ar
magh, both great manufacturing towns,
the latter being the residence OF Lord
Primate Of Ireland, the Head OF the
Episcopal Church.
The next point Of interest, was Dub
lin. the capitol. IL is in every way an
interesting city. both for its pablo
buildings, (which bear the history Of
many ages and also for its beautiful
drives. Among the most notable was
the one in Phoenix Park. From
Dublin, we traversed again 10 Belfast,
from which point we crossed over TO
Scotland and visited the Capitol at
Edinburgh and other points OF interest
Although the Capitol at Edinburgh Is a
MAGNIFICENT piece of architecture, still
of the two CaDitOls l was more favor
ably i'm pressed with the one at Dublin.
From Scotland we visited Birmingham
and Sheffield in England, both great
manufacturing centres. Returning
TO Glasgow, Scotland, we boarded
the steamer on the 5th of August for
our homeward journey, landing in New
York on the 10th. On our return we
met twelve passengers who had gone
over with US, and had each taken differ
ent Journeys over the country.
AZ feel very much benefited by my
trip, aud hope l shall be able to take
another one of a more prOtracted ma
ture in the near future. II | conclude
10 90 shall include the Hoy Land or
Palestine in the itinerary"

A wheeling Drummer Hurt.

George A. Miller, the Wheeling sales
man, travelling for Waterhouse Bros,
hired livery team from Dye &
Thompson, at Little Washington on
Tuesday evening and started TO drive
TO Waynesburg. While on the way to
Amity, the team became unmanageabie
and ran off, throwing the occupant or
the buggy out upon the road, cutting
quite a cash in his head and otherwise
iniuring him. The vehicle was con-
siderably damaged. Mr.. Miller was
taken to Amity, where he had his
wounds dressed, aud later he returned
to Washington. The liyerymen say that
the team is one of the best they have in
the stable and were never known to
run off.

the Stone Bridge, and therefore salts
factorily. All OF the west side Is paved
up to the Goshorn property on the south
and to the railroad tracks on the north.
The Baer switch will be completed to-
day. no doubt. The walls are now being

Is necessary to allow the Baer work to
go forward is the removal of the first
span OF the bridge.

Rad SEAMAN For Census.

The Cincinnati TjmeS-St says: This
is no season Of the year TO take the
school census in Cities" said member
OF the School Board TO the delegate,
':and il is only by accident that it hap
pens as it does. Some years ago legts-
lator from a rural district introduced
bill to take the school census during the
vacation months, and the first the Gin
cinnati School Board heard of it was
when II received a copy OF the bill after
il had become law. IL is no wonder
that the school census does not know an
increase in the number of pupils at
tending school, and still less strange II
il contains mistakes, for summer is the
season when people leave the city. The
hindrance 10 the census undertaken
may then be easily understood. In some
cases he may not be able to get the
uameS Of children from neighbors, and
even II he succeeds that far who can
tell him the age of the children II the
census were taken in September, as it
ought to be, it would show a flattering
increase to the public, and there would
be much less dissatisfaction over in-
creased expenses for the management
Of the schools. The only way TO rem
edy this is by introducing an amend
ment into the Legislature"

1.-THE bankers are behind the railroads

Yesterday. 'They are really the power
behind the throne" he continued, land
while the executive officers of the railways
are apparently the directing power, word
from the bankers, who are heavy investors
and controls large numbers OF proxies,
will change the policy. You know IT is
money that rules everywhere, and 1t Is so
in these cases. do not expect TO see any
rate wars such as we used TO have, and the
reason for my opinion is that the heavy
capitalists are investing IN different rail-
roads, and they will not let one Oh thelr

G HIcAGo. July i6.-The three mem
bers of the interstate commerce COM
mission who have been delving for
tangible evidence to support the numer-
Gus charges of discrimination in freight
concluded their investigation today, after
a three days session. 1t is not their in
tention to abandon the inquiry entirely.
They can do nothing more until after
Sept. 6, on which date Judge Gresham
is to hear the petition whereby they
hope to secure all order compelling wit
nesses to answer questions, and the
illinois Steel company to submit its
stock book for inspection.
A final effort was made today to shed
some light OH the mysterious rate cut
ting alleged to be extensive on the lines
running from Chicago. c. A Dawson.
Western superintendent of the Union
Fast Freight line, which operates over
the Pennsylvania system, had heard
many rumOrs of cut rates. but dis
claimed any actual knowledge. He was
certain the Union line had not cut
rates.
William Borner, general Western
freight agent Of the Pennsylvania, was
recalled, and asked for information con-
corning the business his company did
with the Illinois Steel company. He
believed the IS per car rate charged
for switching fair price for such work.
The Illinois Steel company assumed all
trackage charges. He agreed to have a
statement drawn I'D showing the vols
ume of business done with the Illinois
Steel company. Both Commissioners
Weary and Clements labOred hard to ex-
tract some facts from G. l.. Thomas, as
sistant general freight agent of the Chi
cago 81 Erie. Mr.. Thomas proved to be
an adroit dodger. He said ne only
knew in a general way, from rumor,
that rates had been cut between Chicago
and Eastern points. He had no figures
or facts to prove it. The Erie
cutting to his knowledge. He adj
mitted that special rates might
possibly be made at the eastern end of
the line without his knowledge. The
growth of business OH his line he be-
lieyed to he natural, and he was not
ware that the business of competing
lines had decreased. When asked if he
knew why the Lake Shore had made a
hye-cent reduction OH most products
to seaboard points, he said it was done
on the general rumor that rates were
being cut. Free carriage, the witness
stated, was general among the roads in
Chicago. and the Chicago & Erie gave
free carriage at several points along its
line. He professed to be entirely ignor-
ant of the business of the Erie Dispatch
fast freight lines. The agents of
the road and of the dispatch line Co
operated in the matter of business and
held monthly meetings, but he had
never attended any of the meetings.

Last Financial Bill.
WAsHINGToN, July 16.-The last of
the appropriation billS-tliat to supply
the deficiencies for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1892 occupied about one-half
of today's session of the senate. All
the amendments reported by the COM
mittee on appropriations were acted
upon, and the bill was then opened to
general amendments. Only few such
were offered up to the hour when by
general consent the bill went over till
Monday.
Among the committee amendments
was one requiring the secretary of the
treasury TO pay the Pacific railroad COM
panieS the sum that he should find due
to them for government transportation.
The amount earned Oh the aided line is
to be paid into the treasury on account
of the Indebtedness Of the companies;
and the amount earned Oh the unaided
line is to be paid 10 the companies. No
objection was made to TIE amendment
and it was agreed to without question.
An amendment was also agreed to ap-
propriating nearly half million dollars
to pay judgments Of the court of claims
in Indian depreciation cases. The only
other important amendment offered was
d provision for payment of the judy
ments OH the French spoliation claims.
These items aggregated about million
Of dollars. but action WAS deferred till
Monday on about half of them. All the
Items for tie claims OF insurance COM

DILLON WANTS A DIVVY.
Mackey and Bennett Millions in
His Blinds Eve,

NEW YORK, July 16.-Count Arthur
Dillon, of the Duchy of Lunenburg,
has brought an action in the supreme
court growing out of the Commercial
Cable company. Dillon says he inter-
eSted John w. Mackay and James
Gordon Bennett in the enterprise and
he brings the present suit on an alleged
agreement by which the company was
to issue LOCO shares of preferred stock
with an assured dividend of 10 per cent.
He, Mackay and Bennett were to get
among them 800 of these shares in
equal proportions. The plaintiff states
the capital of the company has been in
creased first to six million and then to
ten millions and he wants shares of the
preferred stock which, Dillon claims,
had never been issued, and he further
wants the proportionate increase by
reason of the increased capitalization.

In Omaha Monday the commissioners

office and drew up the formal charges

of the Wabash road. T. ID. Locke, at
torney for the Wabash, secured the in

questions asked Mr.. Hopkins by the
commission. Mr.. Locke's objections
were on the ground that the commits
sion could not assume the powers of a
grand jury and had exceeded Its jurs-
dictiOn.

about $50 miles east of here in Lake
Erie. Capt. Patrick Woods saw, about
half mile ahead. the waters of the
lake dashed into foam. Drawing near,
to the surprise of the captain and
all on board huge sea serpent, moving
about i'll the waters as if fighting with
an unseen enemy was seen. 1t soon
quieted down and lay at full length on
the surface of the water. Capt. Woods
estimates it to be about fifty feet in
length, and not less than four feet in
circumference of body. Its head was
projecting from the water about four
feet. He says it was a terrible
looking object. 1t had viciously
sparkling eyes. and a large
head. Fins were seen. seemingly suf-
tlciently large to assist the snake in
propeHlng itself through the water.
The body was dark brown in color and
was uniform all along. From what he
says, it would be capable of crushing a
yawl boat and its occupants. AS the
vessel passed on its course the snake
was seen disporting itself OIL the lake.
AT the time he saw it the lake was calm
and there could have been no mistake
in recognizing the object.
