incident. | was selling papers on
a train running out of Detroit.
The news of the great battle of
Shiloh, 10000 killed and wounded,
came in one night. | knew the
telegraph operator at Detroit and
| went to him and made trade.
AN INTERESTING LOOK BACKWARD.
81 promised him Harper's Month
ly and the New York Tribune reg
ularly if he would send out little
dispatches along the line, and have
them posted up publicly. Then l
went to the Free Press and took
400 copies. That emptied my treas
ury. | wanted 200 more. They sent
me up to the editor. 1t was Wilbur
Storey, a dark looking man. |

made a strong plea.
ale listened and then yelled out,
Give this Arab 200 papers" | took
600 papers out. | was taken off
my feet when we reached the first
little station. The depot was
crowded with men wanting papers.
The next station it was worse, and
l raised the price of the paper to
10 cents. At the third station
there was a mob and | sold out
with papers going at % cents a
piece. Well, do you know, that
episode impressed me that tele.
gragny was a great thing, and |
went into it. Telegraphy led to
electricity"

preyentedby litigation, or by any cause
beyond their control. from commence
ing or proceeding with the OonstTuc-
ton Of their said railway" also seemed
to him too liberal, as ANY cause be-
yohd their control might Include the
lack OF money 10 do the work. Ills first
objection was got rid OF by q verbal
amendment, and later the word treas.
sonable" was inserted before cause"
Mr., Menkemiller moved TO change
the route so as to run on Tenth street
to the west side OF Market Square, and
down to Eleventh, Mr. Frew opposed
this, as did also Mr.. Hamilton and Mr..
Robinson, while Mr., Milligan favored
it. Mr., Richards opposed it. Then
there was q lot Of desultory discussion,
and the amendment was lost
An amendment was offered by Mr.
Robinson and adopted, requiring the
company to pave the space between all
double tracks, as we'll as between rails
and foot outside OF the track. Mr.
Robinson moved also 10 require all lo-
cations for switches to be accepted by
council or the board Of public works
He said no did not want to see practl-
Cally double track, like that on Indiana
street, in Indianapolis whore the rail-
way constructed switches for the whole
length of the street with only ten loot
intervals between, His motion was
adopted with slight notifications.
Mr.. Dobbins moved TO insert provi'
sion that when cars on two roads are
approaching crossing the car OF the
road frat granted Its franchise shall
have the right Of way but the other car
shall not unreasonably obstruct the
crossing,
Mr.. Brock suggested that one road
have the right OF wagon Market street
and the other on Main. Mr.. Robinson
thought the matter could wiselybe de-
ierred, to be covered in general ordi'
nance. Mr.. DobbinS withdrew his
amendment.
Mr.. Robinson moved to insert sec
ton providing that II the company
failed within thirty days to repave any
street torn up by 1t, tho board OF public
works should have the right to do the re.
paving, and that the company should
bind itself to pay the r9s. OF such work
without litigation,
Mr.. Hamilton favored the principle,
but thought that at times the limit OF
thirty days might be too short. To
meet this objection the limit was left to
the judgment Of the board Of public
works, the street car company to repave
within thirty days after being notified
to do so.
This was adopted, and tho ordinance
as amended was then ordered to be re-
ported to council with recommends
ton that 1t be adopted.
II was understood at the previous
meeting oil the two committees that q
meeting OF council should be called for
Friday night to consider the ordinance.
It is also desirable that a meeting be
held soon to adopt the report OF tho
finance committee appropriating money
TO pay Henry Florsheim the gas works
coal bill, but a meeting of the commit
tee on wharYes has been ordered for
that evening. One or the other meet
ing will, OF course, have to give way,
but which one it shall be has not yet
been decided.

NOTES on NAVIGATION.
Stage OF Water and Movements of Boats.
The River Interests.


The River Interests.
The marks on the wharf show A feet l
inch in the channel and falling.
The only packet yesterday was the
Ben Hur, for Parkersburg, at noon.
All rivermen report that passenger
traffic this summer is the heaviest for
several years past.
The Iron Queen will arrive at z q. m.
from Cincinnati to lie up at this point
to await another rise.
The United States anag boat, E. A.
Woodruff, which has been engaged in
cleaning the channel above OF obstruc-
tions, passed down yesterday at 2 p. m.
To-day's packets are the H. K. Bed
ford, for Pittsburgh, at Sa. M, the Hud-
son, for Cincinnati, at 4 a. M, and the
Courier, for Parkersburg, at 1880 a m.
The irregularity attending the snag-
boat service, as well as other river i'm
provementi, is owing to the fact that the
appropriations are not alyaya available.
1t is sometimes the case that one APP
preparation is exhausted before another
Is made. Major Stickney is often criti-
cized in regard to delay in this work
when the fault is not with him.
The coal men are all anxious for a
rise SO that they can get their coal to
market and it is to be hoped that they
will not have to wait much longer. 1t
is estimated that there are from TO-
100000 to 100000 bushels loaded,
which will mora than furnish tow for
every towboat able to take one, More
over rise would directly, as we'll US
indirectly furnish employment for a
large number OF men now idle.-Pias-

THEIR PROPOSALS REJECTED.
New York Bankers Not Liberal Enough
to Satisfy MIR. Carlisle.

WASHINGTON, April 2G.-At the cabinet
meeting yesterday afternoon Secretary Car
Isle brought up the proposition of the
New York bankers to supply, under GER
tain conditions, the treasury department
with gold. 1t was very thoroughly dis
cussed and finally rejected What this
proposition was is not known here, as Sec
retary Carlisle declined to make its terms
public 1T was not, however, considered
advantageous to the government. This
was therulmination of several propositions
stibmitted, one of which was declined last
Saturday. A counter proposition was then
made by the bankers to the secretary of
the treasury, which was received last Mon.
day ibis was also rejected, and in turn
the seefetary submitted proposition to
them, which they also refused to accept.
All negotiations, therefore, between the
treasury department and the New York
bankersnre off. at least for the present,
and Secretary Carlisle will look in other
directions to continue to rcplete the treas
ury gold, The administration does not
desire I'd issue bonds, and will not do so
except qs a last resort. That time, in their
opinioni has not yet arrived, and If their
efforts 10 obtain gold are successful will
not soon be reached.

AILwARDT's CHARGES.
a COMMITTEES VIII Investigate His Ac-
ousatione Against Minister Miguel.

BERLIN, April 26.-At the session of the
reichstag yesterday Herr Ahlwardt, tho
Jew batter, made motion for the appoint
ment Of a committee to inquire into tho
charges which he had made OF gross NAL
administration and enormous embezzle-
ment against Dr. Miguel, minister of
finance, and other prominent persons.
Ahlwardt admitted that he had no docu-
ments TO prove his accusations relating to
the invalid soldiers fund, but he said that,
nevertheless, he was prepared to show that
the late Hebrew financier, Baron Won
Bleichroder, had, with the assistance of
DIR. Miguel, wronged the German people
out OF several hundred millions of marks.
He said that he was also prepared to show
that DR.. Miguel, when manager of tho
Diskonto Gesellschaft, had engaged in
transactions on his own account. He CON
cluded by quoting a number of unlucky
enterprises with which Dr. Miguel had
been associated
DIR. MIGUEL said that IL Ahlwardt had
been private person he would not have
noticed the charges, but that as Ahlwardt
was the representatives of German cleo
torate he felt bound to notice them in SO
far as to simply deny the whole of the ac-
cusations which Ahlwardt had made.
After noisy debate the house agreed to
the appointment of committee.

train arrived at Lancaster Few minutes
late. At the railroad station there were
several thousand people gathered who
gave the bell a rousing welcome. The fire
and ladder department were on duty at
the station, and as the train rushed into
the depot there were blowing of whistles,
music by two bands and hurrahing by the
crowd.
HARRISBURG, April 26-The booming of
cannon, changing Of bells, blowing of
whistles and cheers Of great multitude
greeted the old Liberty Bell as the train
bearing 1t to Chicago rolled into the Union
station. Such crowd was never massed
in and about the station on any previous
occasion. There were thousands of people,
all the city schools having been dismissed
to take part in tho demonstrations. Civic
and military organizations, including the
City Grays and Governors Troop, council,
Board OF Trade and citizens generally took
part in the parade to the station Mayor
Eby presented the freedom of the city,
which Mayor Stuart accepted in brief
speech. Eloquent remarks were made by
Governor Pattison and Robert Snodgrass,
president OF the Board Of Trade. the
latter presented banner, which was re-
ceived by Chairman Smithers, OF the coun-
ellis committee of Philadelphia.
As the train drew out of Harrisburg,
parents handed their children up over the
rails to kiss the bell, while others got the
four reserve policemen to rub medals or
trinkets aginst the relic to obtain souvenirs
of the occasion. At Sunbury Mayor Stuart
made short address. Chairman Smith
ers and President Miles, of select council,
also spoke. An enormous crowd cheered
the train as it swept through Milton. At
Wiiliamsport it seemed as IL all Lycoming
county had turned out to honor the bell.
Addresses were made by Mayor Elliott, of
Wiiliamsport, Mayor Stuart, Director
BETTER and Common Councilman Ander-
son. The greatest enthusiasm prevailed.
Everywhere the enthusiasm of the people
was evidenced by the crowds that came to-
gether at every station and almost at
every cross road store where n sight of the
emblem of liberty could be had. The
whistles of all the factories and locomo-
tives that were passed screeched noisy
salutes.
LOCK HAVEN, April as.-The Liberty
Bell was given grand ovation here on
the arrival OF the special train last even
ing. Steam whistles screamed, bells rang,
brass bands played and the people eheercd.
Thousands of residents of the surrounding
country and this city were ranged along
the railrond tracks and caught glimpse
of the bell rs the train moved slowly
through the city after a stop of ten min
utes had been made
