regularity Of It's trains is proverbial with
the travelling public; in practice il almost
realizes the ambition Of every railroad
management to have trains always on

The Direct Route East

The Ohio & Mississippi railway, running
east from st. Louis, is the short and direct
line 70 the national capital, and offers a
through train service which Is not eQualed
by any other line. II is, properly speaking,
the only direct through car line from the
Mississippi river to Washington.
The Ohio & Mississippi railway is the
only line running all trains through solid
from st. Louis TO Cincinnati, the time
being less than ten hours; and the only line
running double daily lines Of Pullman
yeStibule buffet sleeping cars from Sc.
Louis TO New York via Warrington, Balti-
more and Philadelphia without change.

II this was from q Populist IL would
be called repudistion: Thousands Of
men have judgments hanging over them
for amounts far beyond the hope or
probability Of payment-judgments
which are Of no value to the creditor
but which hang like millssones upon
the neck Of the debtor and, by rendering
it impossible for him to procure credit,
prevent him from engaging in enter
prises by which alone he might retrieve
his fortune. A general bankruptcy law
would wipe out old scores; would make
new men out Of tens Of thousands and
set them again on their feet; would
awaken new energies, stimulate fresh
enterprise and revive business in every
channel. Speaker Douglass.

lump coal, and the question is to simply
find how much that will be per ton for
trough, snd-tumble" or "mine-run" coal.
/ have Investigated the output for three
different shafts, belonging to three diff
ferent companies in this district, and
find that the percentage Of fine coal (nut
and slack) for 1892 averaged 1873 per
cent, thus leaving 56.7 per cent. Of the
output lump or clean coal.
Taking a ton 1900 pounds) Of mine
run" coal and dsducting 433 per cent
for fine coal, we find only l,134 pounds
of lump, which, reduced to bushels at
IS pounds to the bushel, gives 1894
bushels, which, at 315 cents a bushel, is
46.79 cents. In other words, a ton Of
coal, on the suppOsition that the same
sort Of work is done, would, on q mine
run basis, at the old price, bring 46.79
cents, and the companies have offered AZ
cents. The only two possible objections
that can be raised to this calculation are
that the percentage is not right, and
that there are eighty and not sighty-fve
pounds to the bushel. The percentage,
however, Ss right most Of the miners
themselves admitting it (the general es-
innate being four cara Of lump out Of
seVen cars OF mine-run), and the miners
have always willingly given the five
pounds for the sulphur that is weighed,
rather than clean it out in the pit. It
certainly seems that any one Of lntelli-
gence and fairness who will examine the
question must admit that the offer by
the operators was not reduction. AS
for the second question, the fairest and
most satisfactory argument to lay before
outsiders, who are not acquainted with
the work. is to take pay roll and show
the exact and specific amounts which
men have been making. This has been
done by one Of the local papers here, and
the result has surprised many people.
In one pay roll for March, 1893, the first
thirty checks, taken without discriminR-
tion and just as they came, showed an
average Of $6520, and of those thirty
meu, only eight put in full time. The
same pay roll for April showed for the
same number Of men an average Of
$64.11, and yet coal was hoisted in that
shaft only seventeen and one-hslf days
in that month. At another shaft, in
March, half dozen of the best names
were selected, and the average earnings
for these men were $ll5.95 each, and the
mine did not run the full month. The
five lowest records were taken and
showed an average Of 1922, and yet not
one Of the number worked over twenty
days. The average OF all was $76.47,
which, with the average expenses of $12
deducted (for powder, oil, etc., left
S6447 as an average for part of q
months work. OF course, many ex-
ceptionRl cases can be found. One man
with a boy IA years old made 81 900 in
six months. One man with 16-year-old
boy to help him drew 5000 in three
months, his "psys" being $198, s2O4 and
S20. These are the starvation wages"
we are told about. Another miner on
the Kansas and Texas Coal Company's
pay rolls has drawn from 800 to S146
per month FIVE months in succession,
while drawing q pension for disability.

TONY UllMANN'S SUICIDE.
He Sends Bullet Crashing Through His
Skull.
Causes That Led to the Conn sSfon O
the Deed-liis Instructions as
to His Effects.

Some excitement was occa stoned in the
vicinity of 13Ih and ID streets northwest
about 1913 o'clock today when 1t was learn
ed that Tony Ullmann. one of the proprie-
tors of the saloon corner OF ,2th and ID
streets. had committed suicide. UlImann and
W. c. Schwarz kept the saloon. AMI the act
Of the former was complete surprise to
the latter. A 3s-caliber British Bulldog
revolver was the weapon used, and the bull
let fom the weapon was sent through the
suicides head.
Relatives Opposed His Marriage.
Uiinlann was apparently thirry-;ive or thir-
ty-eiSht years old. and about Il year ago he
and his partner bought the saloon from
Mrs. Baier after the death Of her husband.
Some changes were made about the place
and among the persons who were employed
was Miss Annie Hageman, a good looking
young woman not more t;ian TWEEN
ty-hve years old. she presided in
the kitchen, and she had been
there but short while before Ullmann
showed affectionate feeling for her.
This feeling ripened into love, and their
engagement was announced Some time
next month was the time fixed for their
marriage, but relatives Of UlinaDn we've CD
posed to the marriage because he was a
Cathoiic and she was not.
This seemed to have some effect on the
saloon keeper. and lately he has been
drinking. He got up this morning as usual,
and about O'Clock he entered the bar and
