EDWIN BOOTH DEAD.
The Famous Tragedian Breathes His Last
In New York City.

NEW YORK, June s.-Edwin Booth,
Americas foremost tragedian, is dead.
The end came at 1880 this morning.
At,7:40 last evening the following
bulletin was posted at the Players
Club:
"Mr. Booth is slowly sinking and it
is doubtful if he survives the night.
"ST. CLAIR SMITH, NJ. ID. y"
After posting this bulletin DR.. Smith
told John NJ. Avery member Of the
Club, that the tragedian's pulse was in
the neighborhood of 100 and his tenn
peraturc had reached over l05 degrees.
The sudden change for the worse
took place at clock. DR.. Smith had
left the Club short time previously,
and being summoned hurriedly to the
bedside of his patient again was
brought in cab, which drove up TO
the Players Club at furious pace.
1t was not thought possible that
Mr.. Pooth could live longer than mid
night. Already he was practically
dead and had been since he became
unconscious on Monday. He lay on
his back most of the time, one hand
and arm crooked above his head and
the other stretched stiff by his side

TICKET MEN BREAK RULES.

Startling Discoveries of Crooke dness
Among Railway People In New York.
New YORK, June 9.-The efforts of
the transatlantic steamship companies
to estab lish clearing house for the
purpose of routing all immigrant
travel west of Chicago and st. Louis
and ultimately to control all immi-
grant travel in this country brought
to light an unusual condition
of things amorg the railroads them
selves. The evil of big commissions
on passengers has broken-out again
among the Eastern railroads and GER
tain of the Western lines have devised
schemes to beat competitors out of all
the second and third-class passenger
traffic. Big commissions rule to all
Missouri River points and also to st.
Paul and other Northwestern cities 1t
requires knowledge of the combina-
ton to be sure to get these commits
s;ons, but every ticket broker in New
York city and many of the boarding
house keepers in the lower wares
know how to unlock it. The game IS
PLAYED chiefly through three or four
well-known ticket agents of the First
Ward, in whom the railroads repose
confidence. These agents pay the big
comm issions and at the same time re-
tain enough of the allowance to
make it an object to themselves. OF
course the strictest secrecy is neccs-
sary as companies caughtat tare guilty
of wilful violations. The three lead
ing agents of the First Ward hold the
key TO the situation.

rumor gained circulation at noon yes
terday that two of the best known
elevator companies in the Northwest,
the Northern Pacific and the Red
River Valley, were temporarily en-
barrassed, and subsequent events
prove that although the crash is not
absolute the predicament in which the
two named corporations find them
selves is a serious one. The situation
is attributed to the prevailing uncer-
tainty and the lack of confidence
which is felt by the banks.
The facts in the case as vet will not
warrant the assertion that il is bust
ness failure, although the statement
comes direct from the general manager
of the Northern Pacific Elevator COM
pany that that corporation will ask
for the appointment of receiver
This means that the Red River Valley
company will do the same; as the
capital interested in each is mostly
mutual.
The capital stock of the Northern
Pacific Elevator company is held
mostly outside of the city, principally
in Duluth. George Ripley, president
of the Northern Pacific Elevator com
pany resides in that city, and until
his arrival to-day no statement as to
liza bilities and assets or the financial
difficulties of the companies will be
forthcoming. The capital stock of
Northern Pacific Elevator company is
$3.50, 900 and the Red River Valley COM
pany s25O.0OO. and the interests of
both concerns are held largely by the
same men.

KoKoMo, Ind, June s.-The grand
| Jury in the case of the wrecked Paris
| Dwiggins Bank at Greentown finished
it's work yesterday. Indictments were
found against ex-Gov. Ira j. Chase,
John w. Paris. Directors, and Lewis
5. Walden, Cashier. The Ex-Governor
is held on three counts bezzlement,
direct and indirect and false pretense.
Paris was caught on five counts-em-
bezzlement. direct and indirect; for
being accessory before the facts of the
Cashiers acts. and for false pretense
made through Chase, paid agent
Walden is held on two counts-rece "
ing money, knowing the bank to be
insolvent, and for false representa-
ton.
A mighty effort was made to catch
Dwiggins, but to no purpose. Paris
and Walden are here and the warrants,
already drawn for their arrest, will be
served. A warrant was also issued for
ex-Gov. Chase. wlo is now in West
Virginia delivering a course of lee
lures.
Paris and Dwiggins started the
Greentown bank about two years ago,
announcing a capital of 100000. Soon

Rev. Ira j. Chase came here in the in

as paid agent and nominal director,
going out among the farmers soliciting
their patronage and urging them TO
deposit their savings in the bank This
he continued to do un to the hour OF
the crash.
According to the testimony of
Cashier Walden before the grand jury
the bank was started without dollar
capital, even the office fixtures being
paid for with money furnished by the
first depositors. The deposits were
drawn out by the officials of the bank
as fast as put in and replaced by
worthless paper, The investigation
began ten days ago and 100 witnesses,
including Chase, Walden and Paris,
were examined.

ment on tEe Financial situation.
WASHINGTON, June s.-President
Clevelands frank statement in regard
to the date of calling an extra session
of Congress was the subject of politi-
cal gossip. The President wrote the
statement himself and sent it to the
press association, and everything indi-
Gated that the President had made up
his mind to make the statement after
n conference with some of his high po-
litical advisers. Secretary Gresham
drove to the White House and remained
with the President while. Although
it is not positively known, it is be-
lieved that other members of the Cabi-
net were there also and that they gave
priety of the statement.
The meaning of the interview, as il
is generally regarded is simply that
the President wishes it to be under
stood that his administration will
take no action, su h as the issuance of
bonds, until after Congress has met
and had a chance TO legislate on fnan-
cial affairs.
There are some who doubt the wis
dom of the Presidents entering into
the general discussion on this subject.

of the situation, will occasion the sub

banks and possibly the failure of sew

ter in the Evening Post, in which she
says that the price for the Isabella
quarters is 81 apiece, said that he
thought the price too low.
The Isabella quarter" he said,
will be the most beautiful silver coin
ever struck off. 1t will far surpass the
souvenir half-dollar and because of n
smaller size will be more easily worn
as watch charm or something of the
kind. In my opinion they will be
worth " apiece, for there will be only
10000 of them. The first coin will
probably be struck off on July 1 and
they will all be ready for shipment on
