ATcHISoN'S NEW RECEIVER.

AIdace +. Walkers Successful Career a.
Soldier, Lawyer and Railroad Manager.
The statement of Expert Accountant
Stephen Little that during the past four
years the earnings of the Atchison, To-
peka and Sante Fe railroad have been
overestimated more than 81, 600, 900 and
that the road has entered into pooling
and rebate arrangements with other big
lines caused great furry in railroad
circles recently and resulted in the res
ignation of President and Receiver J.
W. Remnant. Expert Little examined
the books of the road ut the request of
the Atchison protective reorganization
committee, and his revelations resulted
in the Immediate retirement of Presi-
dent Reinhart and the appointment of
Aldace L. Walker rs receiver of the
Atchison property.
According to Expert Little's report,
the officials of the road have not only
induced investors TO buy the roads

but they have violated tine interstate

BRITISH FORCES ROUTED.
Natives of West Africa Attack British
Soldiers.

Bl CuDLE 10 tIS CiLutI fTeSS.
LONDON, Feb. "a, 1s94-Advices from
Bathurst, the capital of the Colony of Cam
bia, West Africa, state that detachment of
sailors from the British warships Raleigh
and Widgeon, supported by the West India
regiment, landed for the purpose of attack
ing a slave raiding band under Chief
Fodisilah 1t is reported at Bathurst
that the British sailors and soldiers
were surprised by Fodisilah, and after max
ing a stubborn fight, were compelled to re-
treat with heavy loss. This seems to confirm
the somewhat uncertain statements contained
in the telegram received by the wife of the
Paymaster of H.M.S. Widgeon yesterday,
that British force on the West African
coast had met with disaster.
The Admiralty Office has received a de-
spatch from Bathurst announcing the return
of the expedition sent out to attack Chief
Fodisilah The report of the expedition says
that serious opposition was encountered from
the outset. Almost at the beginning of the
march the native carriers became unruly and
many of them deserted at the first opportun-
ity. This caused great loss of carrying
capacity for ammunition, water, provisions,
ETC., and, necessarily, much of the stores
had to be left behind The expedition sue
ceeded in capturing two stockaded villages
from Fodisilah and in these the soldiers and
sailors remained over night. The next morn
ing it was decided to return to the boats.
The party had scarcely got in motion when
it was attacked on all sides by Fodisilahs
men. In the ensuing fight three officers and
ten men were killed and forty-seven
wounded

May Draw His Pay as a Retired
officer and Remain Congressman.
WASHINGTON, Feb. "a, 1S94.-The Secre-
tary of War today received from Second
Comptroller Maneur decision in the case of
General Sickles, which, while setting forth
strong constitutional arguments against the
qualifications of a retired army officer to
enter Congress, finds that General Sickles
cannot be divested of his retired pay amount
ing to $5,625 annually, and that he con-
tinues to hold his military Office. However,
in this conclusion, upholding the constitu-
ton, the Controller shows himself to be
clearly of the opinion that Gen. Sickles was
ineligible to election as member of Con-
gress, and was not qualified to take the oath
Of office, and this will tend to prevent re-
tired officers in future from entering Con-
gress. The document is composed of thirty
nine closely typewriter pages, and Is said
to be one of the most voluminous decisions
prepared by Treasury officials in years. On
July /, 1868, Col. Daniel M Sickles
at the time holding the Office of Major Gen
eral of Volunteers lost his right leg affect
tysburg. He was subsequently placed on
the retired list by President Grant, with the
highest possible rank. In November, 1892,
he was elected to Congress from the Tenth
district, New York. taking his seat August
z, 1885, and has since that time received the
salary and allowances of member of the
House of Representatives

A TROLLEY VETO.
North Hudson Company's
Ordinance Sent Back to
the S. & w. Board.
MAYOR WANsER'S SUGGESTIONS.
Advises That the Grove Street Per-
mission be Left Out Of
4 the Ordinance.

Mayor Wanser's veto of the ordinance
passed by the Street and Water Conrmis-
sioners for the rellef of the North Hudson
County Railway Company, was forwarded
to the clerk of the board at noon TO-DAY. The
veto is substantially as THE JERSEY CITY
NEWS exclusively said it would be yester-
day The veto is merely to allow recon-
sideration of the ordinance, SO that the
Grove street difficulty may be overcome.
The veto in full is as follows:
THE VETO
"To the Hon. Board of Street and Water
Commissioners:
stGENTLEMEN-I herewith return, without
my approval, the ordinance passed by your
board at its meeting of February u, 1894
granting permission to the North Hudson
County Railway Company to construct ad-
ditional street railway routes and TO equip
the same and the present routes of the COM
pany with electricity.
"a portion of the route on Summit avenue
conflicts with the terms of the ordinance al
ready granted to the Jersey City, Hoboken
and Rutherford Railway Company. See
Section II of that company's ordinance,
passed June 10, 1893.
The routes and the ordinance generally
have met with favor, except the Grove street
lines. The ordinance provides for double
track on GROVE SCreeU, from 1aVOnla avenue
north to the Hoboken City line, and single
track from Pavonia avenue south to Newark
avenue. with turnouts as at present.
1.-The arguments pro and con on the
routes of this street were such that rather
than try to settle them / would suggest that
the Grove street lines be taken out of the
ordinance. While you are considering this
suggestion might add that the North Hud-
son County Railway Company pay local
taxes at the full rates, and any percentage
paid for new streets and electricity privi-
leges will be in addition to that tax.
'As the company has its central features
in Hoboken, can see difficulties of separat-
ing the earnings between the two municipal
lies.
sit might be well to calculate the earnings
per mile according to the published reports
of the company and fix upon mileage rate
based thereon, this rate to cover the whole
Jersey City system of the companies, both
old and new, instead of compensation on
the new lines as provided in this ordinance.
GAS the railroad company can operate its
road by electricity cheaper than by the pres
ent method and at the same time increase
its earnings, the city should obtain portion
of the benefit by way of compensation for
the use of its streets.
II send you herewith all the papers and
petitions that have come before me in rela-
tion to this matter. Very respectfully,
PETER F. WANLER, Mayor.

BRIDE DAY OoMPLExIONs.

A girl would give or do or indure any
thing for the sake of looking her sweetest
and prettiest on the day which ends her
maidenhood and promotes her into "a matron,
except-and the exception is SO easy, too, a
mere negation-to avoid over-fatigue and
anxiety in her preparations.
Many girl sews herself sick in her deter
mination to have her regulation dozens of
lingerie, and to possess gowns of every con-
ceivable shape and color. She thriftily reck-
ons- that she can have twice as many by
making them herself or by sewing with
twice the nervous energy of a paid seanstress
with her home dressmaker. So she has the
gowns at the expense of her color and round
ness and nerves. and goes to the altar pale
and worn, and often with an uncomfortable
tendency to nervous irritation, which prom
ises i'll for the beginning of her welded life.
