HOW RAILROADS BEAT THE RIVER.
Some Of the Reasons for the Declfne
of Traffic ON the Mtsssssfpps.


Of Trnslic ON the Mississippi.
The railroads are rapidly paralieline
the Mississippi river on both of its banks,
and in my opinion IL will not be many
years before freight traffic on the Father
OF Waters will have entirely ceased" said
Mr.. +. L. Dickey, secretary Of the Iowa
iron works at Dubuque. who is at the Ar
nngton. 1T is mournful to listen 10 the
tales of woe of the old Mississippi vessel
men on the decadence of shipping since
the railroads began to creep along the
great rivers shores from New Orleans to
St Paul. But they are. of course COM
PEELED to submit TO the installation and
encroachments of the iron horse precisely
as me numbering old stage coach was
opnged TO give way early in the century.
IN tact, IL is idle for the steamboat men
or the Mississippi to attempt TO resist the
irresistible invasion of the railroads by
rutniessiy Strengthening rates and freight
ing at a loss, or by any other means. For
instance. there Is a railroad from DubuQu0
TO 81 Paul on each side of the river. Both
OF these roads touch nearly every river
Town on their respective shores. During
the months when river navigation was
open the river men used to have a pretty
iair show at the shipping. for their rates
were much lower than those OF the rail-
roads, and. curiously enough, they are
more speedy carriers Than the railroads.
But Tor four months of the year. on an
oNSaoSc' river is frozen tight from
shore TO shore. The railroad people took
advantage of this fact by forcing the ship
pers TO make yearly contracts with them.
shippers who at first refused TO do this
were squeezed very tiSht in numerous
ways ty the railroads during the months
that river navigation was closed and now
Eearly all Of them have perceived the good
pohcy OF acceding to the railroads yearly
contract scheme. The railroads have fur
ther entrenched themselves by building
tracks from their main lines TO the plants
OF nearly all the large shippers. Below
dubuque almost the same conditions pre-
vail There Is a line of railroad along
the Mississippi from St Louis TO Cairo
ana line along the shore of The big stream
from New Orleans 70 Memphis Other
lines IN process of construction or in con-
temptation will. in few years fix thines
SO that the steel rails shall extend from
the headwaters of the Mississippi TO its
mouth. Thus the old steamboat men whoee
memories extend back to the times when
they were the lords OF all the domain
through which the great river courses
have OF late years been wrapped In a gloom
profound and unspeakable"

AN EXCITING SCENE,
Gustave Theilkuhl Creates Excitement in
the Police Court
Has Been Insane, and an Unnecessary
Arrest Brings On His Old
Trouble Again.

Gustave Theilkuhl, who attempted suicide.
and was adjudged insane, was treated
In the government asylum for the insane
and was discharged as cured But today
when he appeared in the Police Court he
gave renewed evidences of a return of men,
tai disorder, and had he not been restrained
VIM. Z. Wilson, who had him arrested
would have Jared badly at the hands of
the Infatuated man. Theilkuhl, who is a
well-known citizen here. first showed evi-
dences Of mental trouble in the latter part
of November, 1891, about which time one
Of his children died. He had formed an
attachment for the child, and when death
removed from this world the one he loved
SO well the affiiction was more than he
could bear. Following the interment OF
the child he spent great part of his time
about the grave. One afternoon, just as
the sun had set, he rested himself beside
the last resting place OF the dead one and
then attempted self-destruction by using a
pistol. The report of the pistol shot was
heard, and later the wounded man was
found by one OF the men in charge OF the
cemetery.
On the 9Th day of December 1891, he was
tried by a marshals jury and adjudged in
beth's Asylum. from where he was dis
charged on the oath Of the following May as
cured.
Since that time Theflkuhl has appeared
sition from William +. Wilson of No. AIS
9th street northwest. but he soon left the
place and carried away q photographer s
Tense belonging to Wilson, leaving a note at
the place informing Mr.. Wilson that ne
could get the instrument upon payment Of
what was due him.
An Exciting Scene.
Notwithstanding the fact that the note
was left at the place. Mr.. Wilson went OFF
ard swore out warrant, upon which
Photographer Theilkuhl was arrested.
He stood in the dock charged with the
theft of the tense. Wilson made his state
ment, telling the court about the note left
by Theiikuhi. Then an exciting scene fol-
lowed.
The prisoner INDUCED In the use of pro-
family and made a rush from the dock In
the direction Of Wilson. threatening TO Kill
him.
Lawyer Darlington, who was in court.
had motioned to the judge to inform him of
the dangerous character Of the man. SO
Was not surprised.
Bailin Bolts and a number of police Off
GERS grabbed the prisoner and prevented
him from doing injury to Wilson. He was
taken back to the cell.
The Jadge's Comments.
Judge Miller said that there vas no lar
ceny In the case and wanted to know OF
Wilson why he resorted to the criminal
process in the matter.
''The next time you want to locate prop
erty in this way" said the Judge. you
had better resort to the civil court or con-
suit the prosecuting attorney. This has
brought on the defendants trouble again
and may result in permanent injury to
him."
The case was dismissed.
The smashing of the globes on the gas
fixtures increased the excitement ia the
court room.
