The following which We take from

BILE up the Houck railroad:
"The application for a receiver fol-

surauce Co., of New York, filed yes.
terday in the United States Circuit
Court, developed a peculiar state of
affairs. Two receivers had already
been appointed by two State courts,
aud some suspect that the Missouri
Pacific Railroad is cndeaving 10 obtain
| possession Of the line. The reasons
for this belief are as bildws: An
action was brought against the ST.
Louis, Cane Girardeau ( Fort Smith.
and a receiver applied for, the plaintiff
being E. G. Merriani, who is assistant
to A. G. Cochran, General Solicitor OF
the Missouri Pacific. Plaintiff sues as
the holder of $4,000 first mortgage
bords Of the Cape Girardeau Rail-
way Co., interest upon which was de-
faulted in March, 1892, September,
1892, and March, 1898. Martin l..
Clardy brought the application before
Judge Wear of The Circuit Court of
Stoddard County on Friday last at
Bloomfield, Mo. This town is not on
the line Of the road in question. Mr..
Ciardy asked that a receiver be ap-
pointed. and This reqdest was granted.
the Judge naming Mr.. Eli klotz as
receiver. 1t is stated that Mr.. Klotz
is not u railroad man,.rcr has been a
large customer of the..railrosd. These
proceedings were not known to Louis
Houck, the President, who resides at
Cape Girardeau, until the day after
the appointment of the receiver. He
at once took action to protect the in
tcrests of sill creditors. He accord
ingly applied to the Court of Common
Pleas of Cape Girardeau for the ap-
pointment of a receiver, received the
appointment himself, and at once
qualified. Yesterday Messrs. Cochran
and Clardy went 10 Bloomfield in
order to arrange tor the qualification
of Klotz. Thus two receivers have
already been appointed, and an ap-
plication has been made for a third.
MR.. MERRrAh's EXPLANATION.

idea Of having a wharf boat

The idea of having a wharf boat
at our Leyee is not q bad one, If we
understand, correctly the plan upon
which the wharfage business is to be
conducted. AL cities along the river
! of any note have wharf-boats and we
see no reason why we should be be-
hind other towns in this respect.
Even the little town of Grand Tower
has a wharf boat and the shippers
and receivers of freight find these
boats a great convenience.
For instance, Mrs. Chas. Rogers,
of Bay City, Mich, accidently spilled
scalding water over her little 10y.
She promptly applied DeWitt's Witch
Hazal Salue, giving instant relief. Its
a wonderful good salvc for burns,
bruises. sorea, and n sure cure for
piles. |. Ben. Miller, Druggist.
