hdent OF Victory.
SPECIAL TO THE NEWS.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-Secretary Car
Isle has spent considerable time at the
senate since the debate on the silver
repeal bill commenced. At the
outset he WAS sanguine that
the bill would be passed
at an early day: bnt the delay which has
ensued, and is likely to continue inde6-
nitely. has, his friends say. caused the
situation to grow less hopeful daily or
favorable result.
Tho speech OF Senator Call Saturday
was decided surprise to the friends OF
repeal, AZ he has been counted upon all
along as certain to vote with them.
Senator Turpie's strong opposition 10
clotures places him in the doubtful col
umn on the question OF unconditional
repeal. although he has up to the present
time been counted on as certain to vote in
the affirmative.
Friends of the repeal bill, however, still
insist that the bill will be passed.

FIFTY DOLLARS FOR ONE.
Another shower OF Screen Goods" Cir.
culars on Providence.

Another shower OF "Green Goods" Cir
culars on Providence.
Another flood OF "green goods" circu-
lars has descended on the city and the
police department is met at every turn
with these touching appeals for money.
The circulars purport to come from James
Barlow. EastoD, Pa, but as every ooe
knows who has read the papers this name
is one only OF a iong string OF aliase Z.
which the professional "shover OF the
queer" adopts.
A funny passage in the apparently
simple and emotional letter is that
wherein an appeal is mads to the pro-
spective customer, more right y
."sucser." asking for honorable
dealing. Any one with one grain of COM
mon sense will destroy the circulars il
they receivs them, as quickly as possible
for it is q Jail offease If one is found on
the person.
r Detective Parker has already had
about twenty five of the circulars handed
to him by those receiving them, aud from
the indie stions the supposed Barlow" is
figuring as wholesale slaughterer Of
honor and prosperity in this city. Tte
majority of Providence citizens, however, !,
are too wary to be caught by a
full-fledged ''confidence man" and the ef-
forts of the man called Barlow will reap
no fruit

RAILROAD MATTERS.
President McLeod's Work Meeting With
Success His Pluck and Ability Tells.


The N. Y. g. N. 4. r. r. Co., under the
lead Of President Mcleod, is making
rapid strides toward direct and jpde-
pendent route into New York city. On
Monday last Mr.. Mcleod appeared before
the railroad commissioners of the State
of New York, asking for permis-
sion TO build his newly chartered road
from Brewster's station to the
Harlem river. Mr.. Rpckerfeller's repre-
sentatives appeared at this same hearing
and attempted to prevent the granting Of
the petition because OF alleged interfer-
ence with an obsolete charter which has
been kept ever since 1880 for dog-in-t the
manger uses such as this, but under
which no work has ever been done.
The chairman of the commission made
short wJrk. however, OF their disingenu-
GUS pleadings and denied them any
rights whatever on account Of their al
legged charter.
The hearing ives then adjourn d for
one week, when it Is expected that the
petition will be granted, as New York
State, unlike her nutmeg sister. is not
utterly under the dominion of the great
railroad monopoly known as the N. T.,
N. ii. 81 Ii. consolidation.
This movement shows that New Eng
laud's president is In every way able to
lift 1t ont Of its old ruts aud to put it
upon a substantial and profitable basis.

energetic work OF the patrolman pre-
vented any harm resulting.

dragged back into the alley where his
victim WAS slowly recovering his
senses and the latter, although
