Economy i'm All Departments.


But few persons who have not investigat-
ed the matter realize to what extent the
Pennsylvania Company practices economy,
and in the last year it has been systematized
although the company has for several years
been taking steps to economic in what
its officers regarded causeless waste of
working materials. An official of the COM
pany says the railroads could without doubt
make money without this rigid economy in
little things, but that is no reason why
there should not be as little expenditure
as possible. Systematic economy" said
the official. ''is good thing. not only for
the company, but for the employees. Our
company has adopted a certain system of
economies, which is now so closely adhered
to by the employees that / can hardly see
how Ii could be improved upon. Before such
q policy was adopted, engineers, fremen,
shopmen, cleaners, etc., got their supplies
simply for the asking. and this loose way
Of doing business resulted in much waste.
Now, our men are limited in their supplies.
The company gives them what il deems u
suffciency for each month, and when the
employe knows that 1t is expected the sup
plies will last through the month. he is
forced to economize. The supply of machine
c1 used TO be kept where the engineer
could hlr his cans at will; now he is al
lowed certain quantity per mile run, and
about the yards, shops, and in all the de-
partmentS everything In the line CT SHOW
els. brooms. wrenches, files, coach-clean-
ing material, buckets, brushes, ETC., the
same economic plan is pursued, each en-
ploye being expected to use his supplies
with the care he would exercise If he fur
nished the money to purchase them. This
systematic economy has been a great bene-
fit TO the men, as well as to the company.
The men have begun to practice the same
economy in their homes and in their per-
sonal expenditures that was taught them by
the economy of the railroad company,
and men who in years had not saved a dol
lar have begun to lay by something for old
age or days of misfortune"

The Panhandle Must Pay.

A dispatch from Steubenville. o., says:
The Hon. Robert Sherrard has received
word from Columbus that he won in his
case against the p, c., c. & st. l.. Rail-
road Company in the Supreme Court This
involves the payment to him by the COM
pany of a large sum of money. He refused
to go into the consolidation with the Pan
handle stock. and applied to the court to
have the value of his stock determined and
paid him by the railroad company, as the
law provides. The case was first tried be-
fore arbitrators, who placed the value of
the Panhandle stock held by him at $50
share. The railroad appealed from the de-
cision of the arbitrator to the Court of
Common Pleas, and the case was tried by
a jury, Judge j. g. Hance presiding, who
placed the value of the stock at S6850. Tine
railroad company took the case TO the Cir
cult Court, and then to the Supreme Court.
The aggregate. as found by the arbitrators,
was $171 APO, and as found by the jury $192,
205. Mr.. Sherrard will receive a check for
s211, 600 which aggregate has been reached
with the accumulation of interest.

WAS 1T SUICIDE?
Henry Wilson Dies at the
Hospital.
His Death Considered Suspicious and
His Wife Is Placed Under
Arrest.

henry Wilson, a middle-aged man living
at 2204 Powell street, was found In bed
yesterday morning by Policeman Norman
in an unconscious condition. He had shot
himself in the head with revolver, which
lay by his side.
Wilson's wife met Norman on the street
and told him that she was afraid to 60 into
the house as her husband had threatened
to kill her the previous night and she had
slept ali night in tbs house of friends at
2211 Dupont street.
Norman summoned the patro-wagon and
Wilson was taken to the Receiving Hospi-
tai. DR.. SOmers probed for the bullet and
found that it had lodged in the mans
brain back OF his right eye. The wound
will prove fatal.
Wilson died last evening without recov-
ing consciousness. He was a sailor on the
steamer Australia.
Policeman Norman has been detailed to
investigate the case, as the fact that the
revolver was clasped in his left hand with
his right on the barrel gave rise to The sus-
piclon that some one else may have shot
him and he had wrenched the weapon out
Of his or her hand.
The officer said last night that Mrs. Will
son was spoken highly of by all her neigh
bors. She was married to Wilson six
years ago and brought him fortune of
$4,000, which he had sQuaudered He
made her life burden TO her and drove
her TO seek comfort in the flowing bowl.
Sac did not sleep in friends house Tues
day night but under a neighbours stoop.
Mrs. Wilson was arrested late last night
by Detective Egan and Policeman Norman
at 2011 Dupont street, who took her TO the
City Prison, where she will be held pend
ing developments.
She made the followin statement: "I
purchased the pistol one week ago. had
found that my husband had conspired
with others to cheat me out Of some stock.
At II P. NJ, September %, / took the pistol
and said L would kill myself. My husband
grabbed II from me, and l became alarmed
and ran out OF the house. | slept under
the steps of Mr.. Klevesabl's house on
Francisco street, aud went back to the
house early this morning and found that
my husband had shot him Elf"
This statement is at variance with what
she told Policeman Norman yesterday
morning.
Wilson's body has been taken to the
MOrgue and an inquest will be held
The police look upon the fact that she
has taken her husbands death so coolly al
peculiar. She promised to 60 to the hos
pital 10 see her dying husband. but she did
not turn up. Yesterday she was very
drunk. and altogether her conduct has been

mann, 1--WE have not been very success full
in business. We have tried hard to sue
coed, but everything has gone against u.s.
This reverse in business affairs has affected
my husband very much. l have worked
hard to make living and l gave all my
earnings over TO him."
She said Ahlemann had been working
for An insurance company, but he never
let her know anything about his business.
AS to his taking vita him any great
amount of money Mrs. Ahlemann said /:
"The morning he left home he didn't have
a cent on his person to my knowledge"
Mrs. Ahlemann had just read one of the
morning papers in which it stated that he
had swindled the Liberty Bakery out of
some money. She was greatly enraged
over the statement. She said: II know 1t
is a lie. l saw those bills paid myself. We
do not owe the Liberty Bakery one cent
The bread was all paid for as soon as it
was delivered"
Mrs. Ahlemann would n OF talk in regard
to her family relations with her husband.
She admitted that they had had their little
spats, but said they were nothing serious.
1--WE each had our say" remarked Mrs
Ahlemann, "and that was the end of it,"
The influential membe of the Kreiger
Verein are wideawake to the reasons whv
Ahlemann skipped, il Mrs. Ahemann
isn't. One prominent member of the So
ciety who does not wish his name men
toned said:
Fast living ruined Ahlemnnn. his in
come was too meager 10 permit such. "a gay
life as he led. 1 will wager that his bar
bills averaged S. a day."
This gentleman contradicted the story f
Mrs. Ahlemann that AhlemaDn left town
without a cent. He said he was positive
that Ahlemann took with him over 5000 in
gold. why" said he. "Ahlemann col
Iected for the society over 5000 on the
Monday and Tuesday before his depar-
ture, and this money has never been turned
over to the lodge. He has given no re-
ceipts for it to the members from whom
he has collected this money. and now they
will be obliged 20 pay 1t over again. Oh,
be was little rascal"
The kreiger Verein will not endeavor
to locate Ahlemann until 1t is able to
ascertain its loss. This will take a long
time. as a large number of the members
live distance from the city.
Voss. Conrad 81 Co., the insurance
people whom Ahlemann is thought to have
defrauded out of neat little sum, would
not say when seen yesterday what action
they intended to take in regard to the
matter They claimed that their loss was
not very large. 1t will be some time be.
fore they will find out the exact amount.
In an interview published in THE CALL
yesterday with AdOlph Becker it stated
that Mr. Kaiser, the former president OF
the Kreiger Verein, defrauded the society
out of 1880 or S4OO." This is an error.
Mr.. Kaiser did not owe the society any,
thing when he left the city so suddenly.

KILLED ON THE WHARF.
Diseased Cattle Seized by the Market
InsDeCtOr.

Chief Market Inspector Captain F. Han
son and two assistants. BroGerick and
Weiss. created quite little excitement on
the water front yesterday.
Acting under Information received from
Marin County. Captaia Hanson inspected
the forty-one head of cattle brought down
by the steamer Sold to a private wharf be-
tween Washington and jackson streets.
DR.. Z. Greedy. the veterinary surgeon, was
with the party, and pronounced seven
head to De badly affected with lung
trouble. They were seized and at once
slaughtered on the wharf.
The cattle were originally consigned 10
the Western Meat Company, but Hanson
states that the name Of the consgnee was
altered after the vessel tied up to j. A.
Riley, who claimed that the cattle seized
were intended to be used for fertlliZing
purposes.
Inspector Hanson declares that the
cattle were bought at a rate OF S. head,
though Riley maintains that some of them
cost $40. The inspector believes that the
cattle were intended to fill a corn-beef
contract to supply the bellicOSe Chinese
with martial ardOr.

Edmund AhlemanD, the defaulting
financial secretary of the Deutseher
Kreiger Verein, has now been missing
from the city for over a week. and his
whereabouts is as deeply mysterious a $
ever. He was very careful to cover all OF
his tracks.
His wife claims to be completely in the
dark as to why her husband left as he did.
He gave her not the slightest inkllng that
he was going to skip the city.
Ahlemann treated all his friends IN like
fashion. They are dazed over his sudden
flight None of them when seen yester-
day had the least idea where their secre-
tary might be.
Mrs. Ahlemaun seemed broken-hearted
over the event when seen at her home on
Ellis street yesterday. She was unable to
give any adequate reasons for her Eus-
bands peculiar disappearance.
When asked why she thought he left
as he did she said she didn't know. She
said her husband would at times appear
downcast and brOken-hearted. "During
the last FIVE years." remarked Mrs. Able
