FELTON, A GAME FIGHTER.
He Goes for the Louisville and
Nashville Without Gloves.

He Claims That the Increase in Busi-
Because the Line is Shorter Than Its
Rival-He Also Points out That the
Louisville Lost Business by Reason
of Floods and strikes-Doctoring of
Bills of Lading Denied.
Cincinnati, O., March 1S.-Receiver s.
M. FELTON, has given out his answer to the
accusations of President Smith, of the
Louisville and Nashville railroad bearing
date of Feb. IL. In that letter President
Smith, in giving his reasons for
withdrawing from the Southern
Railway and Steamship Association,
rather bitterly accused his competi-
tors, notably the Queen and Crescent, of
which President FELTON, is the receiver, of
cutting rates in violation of the compact
and of the federal law. President Eel
toms reply avoids recrimination and is
wholly confined to answering President
Smiths statement of grounds for his ad-
verse conclusions.
HARD sLAPs AT SMITH.
In answer to the argument that the
Queen and CresCent's increase OF earn
ings in 1898 indicated a cutting Of rates,
President FELTON, says that in 1893, the
road was for the first time in several
years sufficiently equipped to meet all the
demands for business made upon it; that
moreover, it was 16 miles shorter
route from Cincinnati to Chattanooga
and Florida and seventy miles
shorter to New Orleans than the
Louisville and Nashville, and further
moro that as the Southern was paying an
annual rental to Cincinnati, and the bust
ness men of the city gave it the prefer
ence. In regard to the disparity Of freight
traffic between the Louisville and Nash
vile, Receiver FELTON, reminds Presi-
dent Smith that the Louisville
and Nashville during 1898 was
crippled by floods near New Orleans
and later by a great strike on its line
which would inyalidate any judgment
formed on that basis. He therefore sug-
gests that Mr.. Smith, in his comparison
of competitive tonnage assumed condi-
ditions which did not exist.
THE RE-sHIPPNG BUSINESS,
To President Smiths charge that the
Queen aud Crescent sets at defiance all
re-shipping rules that bills of lading, etc,
are doctored that points of shipments are
falsihed; that bills Of lading issued at
Chicago are made to read as though the
grain originated at some point IN Kansas
or Nebraska, to these charges Receiver
FELTON, says; ~ desire to state most en-
phatically that there is no foundation
whatever for the above charges, and adds,
"the vigilance exercised by the commits
sioner and his deputies at Cincinnati and
Louisville over the matter of reshiping
data (Which have no desire or intention
of criticising, but heartily commend), is
in marked contrast to the loose method in
vogue at Nashville"
AF,. oil l,T
policy of the Louisville and Nashville e
compelled Louisville and Cincinnati tc
open avenues of their own to the south.
The letter is very long and full of fig
ures, but the points givenAbove are the
salients.

eELa1UM,s KING MISSING.
After Much TeleEraphinE He Was
Found at Geneva, Switzerland.

After Much TeleEraphing He Was
Found at Geneva, Switzerland.
Brussels, March 18.-King Leopolds re-
markable disappearance from his country
house in the province of Namur, some
days ago, is still the subject of much
comment The ministry sent a dispatch
to him on Friday, announcing that the
chambers rejection of the proposal for
proportional representation would cause
a cabinet crisis. The dispatch was ad-
dressed to the king at Montreux,
but he could not be found
there. A similar communica-
tion was sent to Aix-Les- -Baines, but it
was returned with the notice that the
king was not there. This Afternoon his
majesty was found in Geneva, Switzer-
land. and was informed that the ministers
would await his return to Brussels before
making an important declaration in par
lament.
The radical and socialist newspapers
condemn the king without measure for
absenting himself so mysteriously during
a grave crisis in state affairs. They say
that he might at least subordinate his
personal affairs to state interests suffici-
emily to give his ministers an opportunity
to communicate with him.

HENRY APPEL INSANE.
A Popular savannahian Under Treat
ment in the North.

ment in the North.
Mount Vernon. n. y, March IS
Henry Appel, aged rs, who gave his resi-
dence as Savannah, Ca, was taken into
custody this morning by the local police
at the Harlem railroad station while he
was endeavoring to pursuade the station
agent TO give him a ticket for New York
city and take in exchange his valuable
gold watch as payment. This excited an
officers suspicion and he took MIR.
Appel to the police station, where
Chief Foley interrogated him and sue
ceeded in learning his name and address.
The chief soon concluded that Mr.. Appel
was insane. Later he received a tele-
phone message from Granher's santa
rum for the insane at Bronxville, N. Y,
saying that a patient named Appel had
escaped this morning. Mr.. Appel was
returned to the asylum this afternoon.
MIR. Appel is well connected in Savannah.
Mr.. Appel was taken north recently for
treatment for what his physicians and
friends here believe is only temporary
mind trouble He had been acting
strangely for sometime. II was evident
that he needed care and treatment that
he could not receive here and he was
taken to sanitarium.
