CHICAGO ABORTIONISTS.

CHICAGO, Sept. 30.-If the charges con.
tanned in declaration filed ia the superior
court in suit for SIS, 600 damages are
true, certain defendants will have a hard
time explaining a transaction in opposi-
ton to the criminal laws of this state
The suit is that of Lucy and Kate Stilwell
against j. c. Ransome and his wife, Car
rie; her sister, Mollie Dennis; Mrs. C.
Brown and DIR. Frank Keyes, and is for
damages alleged TO have been sustained to
the plaintiffs reputation by reason of the
existence of a conspiracy in which all the
defendants are charged to have been i'm
piicated, III performing a criminal opera
ton on Mollie Dennis. DIR. Keyes is the
physician who is accused of having per-
formed the operation. The suit was COM
meuced some time ago, but when it was
filed. 5. II. HENDERSON, attorney for the
plaintiffs, refused to give any information.
he desired that the declaration which
would set out all the particulars and allie
cations upon which the suit is based,
should be waited for. The declaration
was subsequently filed, aud, it is said,
later on mysterIously disappeared. 1t has
been returned. and is now, with other
papers and documents in the case, in the
superior court file ROOM
In Its Initial statements the declaration,
which WAS made by Lucy and Kate Still
well under oath, asserts that the plaintiffs
were last fall conducting boarding house
Mt $3.50 Indiana avenue. They were re-
Quested to rent room for a certain
length of time, to be occupied, it was
understood. by Miss Noble Dennis. about
20 years old. 1t is further charged that
on the night of Oct. %. 1892. the defend
ants, to carry out prearranged plan,
used the room for the purpose, it is stated,
of performing a criminal operation on
Mollie Dennis, an unmarried spinster, as
she is characterized. 1t is also alleged
that bedding and articles of furniture in
the room amounting to 500 were carried
away, for which plaintiffs were not COM
pensated. The Misses Stillwell assert
that the midnight transaction leaked out
in the neighborhood and became a matter
OF current gossip. They claim that their
reputation has been damaged by reason of
the peculiar occurrence having taken place
iu their house, aud deem that So. 600, the
amount sued for, will repay them for the
alleged disgrace to which they have been
subjected. Attorney HENDERSON confirmed
all the allegations of the declaration, and
even added more, averring that it had
- ~ told to hiDa by his clients shortly
after the strange proceedings happened.

RAIN IN WESTERN KANSAS,

ASHLAND, Kan, Sept 30.-[Special. l.
There has been the finest general rain
throughout these various counties in
southwest Kansas that has visited the
country since its opening. nine years ago.
At this point there has fallen within the
last five days a fraction over four inches OF
rain. The last rain continued eighteen
hours, precipitating in that time three
inches Of rainfall by the gauge. There
was before the rain AS much wheat sown
as was seeded last year. and since the rain
every one is doubling the amount
There is no country that can surpass
this. if properly worked, and by diligens
! application for series of, say five. years, a
man can raise more wheat here than in
any other state i'll the union. With rain,
the success of wheat, rye. barley, oats,
Kaffir corn, sorghum, etc, is equally as.
| sured. Men have raised fifteen bushels of
barley per acre on fields where no rain
streak gave the fields drop of water
after the barley was seeded.
Many went to the opening and have
come back satisfied. at least as we'll rs one
should be satisfied. The trouble has been
that there has been too great degree OF
dissatisfaction, and it has become disease
People have talked extravagantly until
they believed the falsehood they uttered,
acted upon it, and often. when too late,
see their folly. Yet, the consequences
must follow. The demagogue made the
laborers believe last year that they were
working at starvation wages, and induced
many of them to vote for change, and
they are certainly realizing that their
votes were not cast in vain. The change
is with US.

OMAHA, Neb., Sept. 3O-General Pas
senger Agent Lomax of the Union Pacific
today notified Chairman Caldwell of the
withdrawal of his road from the Western
Passenger association, to take effect on
Oct 10. This it does, he says, to protect
the road.
The reason assigned for the coup on the
part of the Union Pacific is the unjust
ness of Chairman Caidwell's ruling ABOUT
Individual action in che use OF rates tend
cred by connecting lines, making the use
of such rates dependent upon the unani-
nous agreement of all lines. Mr.. Lomsx
disavowed any intention to demoralizs
business. but thought self-protectlon lay
outside OF the association. He did not
know what effect the withdrawal would
have on the association.
